Chapter 368: Loving Everyday Life
Xie Qingtang took out a lock, and after locking the secret door firmly, he nodded contentedly, and then turned his head to Gu Xiujin and said, "Since it's useless, then lock it, lest any rats crawl in the middle of the night, I'm most afraid of mice." ”
"Mouse." Gu Xiujin glanced at her in surprise and left the room directly.
After a while, the maid came in to help Xie Qingtang, put all the clothes in the closet, and also took Xie Qingtang to visit the entire villa.
At this time, Xie Qingtang was surprised to find that although this villa looks small on the outside, there is a hole in the back, and there is a beautifully designed garden when he walks through the corridor, and the maid said proudly: "Madam, this is a garden designed by a famous gardening designer specially invited back from abroad by the young master, and the fragrance of flowers is continuous throughout the year, and there are flowers blooming even in winter, which is beautiful." ”
"It's really beautiful." Xie Qingtang walked in curiously, his eyes skimmed over the strange flowers and plants, but he didn't expect that the man who looked cold as frost was also interested in flowers and plants.
However, Xie Qingtang always remembered her mission, she didn't come here to enjoy life, so she turned to the maid and said, "Let's go to the kitchen, today is the first time I live in the villa, just to show my craftsmanship and cook something delicious for Gu Xiujin." ”
For such a reason, Xie Qingtang successfully entered the kitchen, and those chefs looked at her a little nervously, after all, the person in front of her was the hostess of the villa in the future, who was in control of their careers.
"You don't have to be so nervous, I just want to make some medicinal food for Gu Xiujin, you can be busy with whatever you want." Xie Qingtang said with a faint smile, she came to the kitchen entirely to investigate, so she had to let these people return to their usual state before they could investigate.
But there was one more person in the kitchen, no matter how relaxed they were, they were carrying a thread in their hearts after all, Xie Qingtang knew that this matter was in a hurry, so he took a small crockpot and a stove by himself, and made medicinal food by himself, as if nothing had changed.
Seeing that this lady who had not yet married in did not have that kind of condescending attitude, the other chefs suppressed their worries a little.
It's just that what they don't know is that Xie Qingtang's gaze has always been scanning the entire kitchen, observing everyone's movements and everyone's expressions.
Finally it was time for dinner, and the medicinal food that had been boiled for five hours was ready, under such a high degree of concentration, Xie Qingtang felt a little tired, but he still sat in the restaurant and had dinner with Gu Xiujin.
"This is the medicinal food I have boiled for you for five hours, you have to eat it all, it is good for your body." Xie Qingtang blinked and said, hoping that Gu Xiujin would understand his hint.
Gu Xiujin glanced at the medicinal diet in front of him and nodded, the other dishes on the table did not move, and he really ate Xie Qingtang's medicinal diet, and then said, "I'm full." ”
"Very well, do you need something else to eat?" Xie Qingtang said with a smile, the corners of his mouth were hooked, Gu Xiujin's eyes narrowed slightly, and he shook his head directly.
At this time, the butler standing next to him said with some surprise: "Young master, do you really not move a bite of these dishes?" ”
"Don't eat it, let's take it all down." Gu Xiujin said lightly, and the housekeeper didn't continue to ask.
Xie Qingtang said with a smile: "It's okay, Gu Xiujin doesn't eat it, but I eat it." After finishing speaking, she moved her chopsticks and chewed slowly in Gu Xiujin's rather nervous gaze, and then showed a smile on her calm face, and said to the housekeeper: "It's delicious." ”
"Madame likes it." The housekeeper nodded calmly, and then Xie Qingtang finished his dinner with a calm expression, and went to the study with Gu Xiujin.
Before Gu Xiujin could speak, Xie Qingtang hurriedly took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and put it in his mouth, and said with a serious face: "Today's meal is really poisonous, although they cover the taste of poison with the aroma of the meal and the pungency of the seasoning, but my tongue is not a vegetarian, and I tasted it immediately." ”
"I just got home, and they couldn't wait to do it, huh." Gu Xiujin said with a cold face.
Xie Qingtang sighed in his heart, walked up to him to check his pulse, and then nodded and said: "The medicinal diet made tonight has a mild medicinal effect, which can slowly detoxify the toxins in your body, but if you only eat my medicinal diet once or twice, and don't eat the dishes made by other chefs, it will also arouse the suspicion of others after a long time, and you may be startled." ”
Speaking of this, both of them fell into silence, and now they can't find out who the ghost in the villa is, so naturally they can't startle the snake.
"We must find a way to catch this inner ghost." Xie Qingtang said categorically, and Gu Xiujin also nodded.
And early the next morning, Xie Qingtang came to the kitchen early, and those cooks were shocked when they saw her coming again, so they hurriedly asked, "Madam, why are you here again?" ”
"Oh, don't you know that Xiu Jin took my medicinal diet last night, and he was addicted to it, and said that he wouldn't eat if he didn't have my medicinal diet, hey, his personality is too stubborn, I have to come to make medicinal food for him, you still don't have to worry about me, you can do your own thing." Xie Qingtang said with a sweet smile on the corner of his mouth, and let everyone in the kitchen eat a handful of dog food.
However, everyone didn't take it seriously, thinking that how could Gu Xiujin take medicinal food every day, but Xie Qingtang had just moved in, and the two of them were mixing oil in honey, and they would definitely get tired of eating it in a few days.
But what he didn't expect was that Xie Qingtang made medicinal food for Gu Xiujin every day, and Gu Xiujin didn't move a single bite of other meals every day except for the medicinal diet she made, so he insisted on it for three days, so that those people in the kitchen finally panicked.
They were surprised to find out that Xie Qingtang did not come to the Gu family to be his wife, but to rob them of the work of these cooks, if Gu Xiujin didn't eat their cooking every day, then what use did they have for these cooks?
However, Gu Xiujin was their employer after all, so although these chefs were muttering and complaining in their hearts, they didn't dare to say anything about Xie Qingtang's actions.
Until the evening of the fourth day, Xie Qingtang still came to the kitchen as usual to cook medicinal food for Gu Xiujin, and when he was halfway done, he said to a cook: "Help me look at the fire." ”
