In less than half a cup of tea, the rain really stopped.

Yu Zixuan glanced at the man beside her, he didn't look like a magic stick, how did he know when the rain would stop this day?

"Every year in the north, there will be a few autumn rains in the winter, but because there is little rain in the north, it won't rain for too long every time, why is Miss Six from the north, and she doesn't even know about this kind of thing?"

The warm tone in her ears made Yu Zixuan vigilant, which was obviously a temptation.

Could it be that this man is doubting his identity?

No, no one will know about this matter except herself, not to mention this kind of thing that can't be explained by science at all, others will only think that she is crazy and won't take it seriously.

She immediately rejected the speculation, what else could it be?

Thinking that before she became the sixth lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the original owner had been taken back for a few days, and the situation in the Prime Minister's Mansion was very bad at that time, and she was humiliated.

Although she didn't have too many memories to inherit, she thought of how frightened the original owner who had been tortured like a frightened bird would be after being tricked into seeing Yuanwu in the utility room.

She didn't see any wounds on her body, which means that the original owner was probably too scared and scared to death.

All of this is thanks to the mother and daughter of the long house, she narrowed her eyes slightly, came back to her senses, and said in a light tone: "I really don't know, thank you for mentioning it." ”

Qi Yuanying raised her eyebrows slightly, but admired her undisguised demeanor.

But it didn't do her any good, she wasn't a stupid person, and she should have considered it.

But I still opened my mouth to answer like this, and the purpose is probably ......

"Miss Six doesn't have to treat everyone as an enemy." I heard Ye Lixuan mention that her life in the Prime Minister's Mansion was not good, and she was walking on thin ice step by step.

Even though Qi Yuan could expect this, but when he really stood in front of her and saw her guarded appearance like a hedgehog, there was an indescribable feeling in his heart.

She has no way to change her birth, so she plans everything so hard to make her life better in the future.

How could Qi Yuan not know?

Yu Zixuan didn't say anything, took the umbrella back from his hand, and walked to the kitchen.

What the man said just now seemed to be hostile, but after all, she was from the General's Mansion, so she had to deal with it carefully.

As soon as the old women in the kitchen saw Miss Six coming, they all stood up and greeted her with their work.

Since the last time Yu Zixuan personally killed chickens and monkeys in the kitchen, she privately asked Han Yun to send some loose silver to them, in order to let them know that as long as they take care of Ziqiong Yuan, they will be safe with each other and no one will be beaten again.

The old women stopped taking the money and took care of the food in Ziqiong Garden every day.

Yu Zixuan stepped into the door and said, "Father asked me to personally cook and entertain the Nine Emperor Princes, just leave the two of them to fight." ”

"Yes." Lao Tzu and the cook retreated, and only two were left to help.

Yu Zixuan didn't care about Qi Yuan, and walked straight to the cabinet with fresh vegetables, thinking carefully about what to cook.

After selecting a few vegetables, they were handed to the old woman and asked them to be cleaned.

I rolled up my sleeves, walked to the stove without a young lady's shelf, and began to concentrate on cooking.

She is skillful, and she often cooks at a glance, so it can be seen that the dishes on the table before were indeed made by her personally, not by borrowing someone else's hand to please the old lady in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

In less than half an hour, seven or eight dishes had already been placed on the plate, each of which was full of color and flavor, and it was a dish that Qi Yuan had never seen before.

"Excuse me......"

"Don't you see I'm still busy?" Yu Zixuan interrupted him without raising her head, lifted the lid of the pot, scooped a spoonful, put it into a small bowl the size of a palm, and handed it to him: "If you want to ask, it's better to taste it yourself." ”

Qi Yuan put it to his lips and took a sip, and he felt that it was very fresh, it was a taste that he had never tasted, delicious and not greasy, and there was a special fragrance.

"How? It's delicious. ”

"Hmm."

She's confident.

Yu Zixuan hooked her lips and smiled lightly: "This is eight treasure soup, which is made with four different vegetables and minced meat, simmered over low heat, and finally sprinkled with fresh chrysanthemum petals to enhance the fragrance, even if it is done." ”

"You think it's all your own?"

"Nature." In addition to soaking in the research room, Yu Zixuan's biggest hobby was to go to the kitchen.

Unlike her motivation for exercising, she is not a foodie, but she loves to study.

The feeling of cooking gives her is similar to that of drug research, and after many attempts, she can always find a better one, so before she knows it, her cooking skills have made a qualitative leap.

After the soup was served, she told the old women that they could send it.

After the two old women left the kitchen, she spoke again: "Today, Prince Qi Yuan has also confirmed with his own eyes, can you go back and tell the Nine Emperor Princes that the previous deal with the Nine Emperor Princes will be stopped." ”

Qi Yuan could hear the displeasure in her tone.

Sure enough, he was smart, and he could think of it in such a short time that Ye Lixuan asked him to come here, not because he was really interested in cooking, but because he wanted to determine whether Yu Zixuan really had the ability to make good dishes.

Otherwise, there is no way for the Nine Emperor Princes to fully trust the dishes on that menu.

"I can't convey it below."

"Okay, I'll say it myself." Yu Zixuan didn't want to go back to the banquet hall again, how boring it was to greet guests, she could think of it with her toes.

And Yu Hongcai will definitely let her behave as decently as possible in front of the Nine Emperor Princes, so she is not in the mood.

If it weren't for the Nine Emperors suddenly mentioning something for her to cook, she would have found a reason to slip away.

Qi Yuan looked at her back as she hurriedly walked out, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with an inexplicable smile.

He didn't convey it, in order to wait for a while, when he had dinner, he wouldn't be so bored, he wasn't interested in men, and if Yu Zixuan was there, he would still be a little interested.

……

After dinner, Yu Hongcai and the Nine Emperors went to the cabinet to talk about things.

Yu Zixuan got up and took the cloak sent by Han Yun, and as soon as she put it on, she heard the maid guarding outside shouting, "It's snowing." ”

She looked up at the door, and sure enough, the snow was falling all over the sky, and even the temperature was much cooler than when it rained.

Han Yun reminded beside her: "Miss, the slave maid will go and get some charcoal first, otherwise it will be too cold in the house tonight, and you will not sleep well." ”

"Well, go ahead." Yu Zixuan was left behind tonight, and was even allowed to eat at the same table, which was already a precedent that had never been set in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

She knew what was going on here, and she must have spread the word all over the backyard.

In the past, if she wanted to get something to make up, the housekeeper always pushed back, but today she was not worried at all.

The direction of the wind in the Prime Minister's House will soon change.

She deliberately didn't put on her hat, walked down the steps, and reached for the drifting snow.

The snowflakes fell on the palm of her hand and were cold, making her head much clearer.

She did not rush back, but went alone to the pavilion in the garden, and put the lantern in her hand on the stone table.

Her hands were already frozen and cold, and she put them to her lips and sighed a few times before she felt warmer.

After waiting for a long time, she didn't see the Nine Emperor Princes leave, she couldn't help frowning, what could Yu Hong have to talk to the Nine Emperor Princes for so long?

It's better to go back to Ziqiong Yuan first, and if you can't let Le An go to the mansion of the Nine Emperor Princes, you can convey your meaning.

Just as she was about to leave, she saw a figure in the distance walking in her direction.

"Miss Six is wearing too thin, and if she blows in the cold wind like this, she will definitely catch the wind cold tomorrow."

Yu Zixuan heard that it was Qi Kite's voice, a light snort escaped from the tip of her nose, and she said with a cold attitude: "Why does Qi Kite Gongzi care so much about me all the time, is it because he has taken a fancy to me?" ”

"If Miss Six thinks so, she won't deny it."

What the?

Yu Zixuan was slightly stunned, staring at the man in front of her with a somewhat surprised gaze.

His tone just now didn't seem like a joke.

But Yu Zixuan didn't believe that there was any so-called love at first sight in this world, let alone between two families with such a complicated relationship between the Prime Minister's Mansion and the General's Mansion.

This young master of the General's Mansion, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?

She frowned slightly, and said in a colder tone: "Qi Yuangongzi's words are not funny at all, don't make this kind of joke casually in the future, if it's another girl, I'm afraid it will be taken seriously." ”

"What about Miss Six?" Deep dark eyes met hers.

"Naturally, I don't believe it."

"I don't believe it now, because Miss Six doesn't know me well enough." Qi Yuan took a step forward and stuffed the stove in his arms into her hand.

He didn't entangle himself with superfluous movements, but retreated to the distance between the two of them very regularly, and continued: "Just now, Hanyun couldn't find Miss Six, so I promised her to help send it. ”

"Thank you, if there is nothing else, then I'll go first." Yu Zixuan only felt that the stove in her hand was hot at the moment and wanted to throw it away.

But I still didn't do it directly in front of him.

When he walked past Qi Yuan, he suddenly heard a man's deep female voice in his ears: "What I said just now is true." ”

Yu Zixuan's footsteps faltered, she moved her lips, and after all, she didn't say anything and left quickly.

Walking out of the garden, Han Yun hurriedly ran to her: "Miss, the slave and maid are worried to death, that Qi Yuan Gongzi won't let the slave and maid go to you, and let the slave and maid watch here, don't let other people go to the garden and disturb you." ”

Disturb?

Why did Yu Zixuan feel that when he listened to these words, he always felt that the relationship between him and her was so ambiguous?

Or is it that Qi Yuan just wants to misunderstand others.

She felt more and more that the timing of this man's appearance and what he said tonight had a purpose, and it was not just a whim.

Seeing that she was silent, Han Yun couldn't help but be worried: "If it weren't for the fact that Prince Qi was a member of the Nine Emperors, the slave wouldn't have let him enter the garden, fortunately, no one else saw it, otherwise if it spread, I don't know how ugly they would say." ”

"Now they don't dare." Except, of course, for the few broken-mouthed maids in the long house.

And Yufu, it must be very uncomfortable right now.
