Xiao Heng admired her sharp knife work when she peeled potatoes, seeing that she was washing and cutting alone, she stepped forward to pick up the cabbage she was going to peel off one by one, and accosted: "Who else is there in your family?" Why is Song Mingyuan your cousin, and you are coming straight to him, but you don't know where he is? ”

"The situation at home is complicated, and having a father is the same as not having a father, running out." Gu Xiaoshuang is accustomed to replying to the end.

Although this person is a scumbag, he doesn't look like Tan Zishao, so there is no need to hide it everywhere, lest he lie too much, and when the time comes, he will be full of holes.

Because of her word "run", Xiao Heng couldn't help but look at her twice.

"Do you know how to cut fish?" Gu Xiaoshuang asked him.

He paused, "You can teach me." ”

Gu Xiaoshuang was not polite, he fished out a small crucian carp and held it firmly in the palm of his left hand, held a kitchen knife in his right hand, and gently slashed it on the belly of the fish, then put down the knife, hooked his index finger into the belly of the fish and hooked out the belly and cheek bubbles, and showed him.

With these seemingly simple movements, a small fish three or four inches long was handled cleanly by her.

Xiao Heng held his breath for a moment, admired it even more, caught a fish and drew the talisman in the same way, but before the knife reached the fish, the fish had already come out.

Try again, still so.

"Can I eat ready-made?" He sighed.

Gu Xiaoshuang pondered for a while against the wall, then raised her lips and said, "Unless you add money for the house." ”

Xiao Heng laughed angrily: "I have the money!" ”

……

Gu Xiaoshuang underestimated the amount of food a man ate.

She still had half of the rice in her bowl, and the four dishes had already bottomed out, so she had to see how many eggs he had spread out for the extra money.

It snowed heavily for three days, and the snow stopped and the sky cleared, and Xiao Heng was in good spirits for three days, following the peeling of cabbage, cutting fish, and peeling corn kernels, and he is currently learning to make a fire.

When he was in a bad mood, he sat and waited for food, and of course, he paid him very well.

Then he called one or two guards in from time to time to order something, Gu Xiaoshuang was not at home during the day, and the time he could meet him every day was basically limited to morning and evening.

His presence had no effect on Gu Xiaoshuang, and at first she was worried that Ziying would be uncomfortable, after all, she was more conservative, but because she also went to the teahouse during the day, she almost came back with her, and there was not much chance to get along, so it was just that.

Today is the day of Qi Miao's visit to Sun's Mansion, and Xu Lingying prepared a banquet early.

Gu Xiaoshuang saw that she was nervous, and finally couldn't get around that question, and said to her: "I think the princess is also quite kind, Madame doesn't need to be nervous." ”

Xu Lingying sighed: "It's me who feels guilty." ”

Seeing that Gu Xiaoshuang didn't answer, she didn't explain.

Although Xu Qian was ordered to do it at the beginning, he had done bad things to Duan Hongfei's wife and children after all, and he always felt that the emperor killed him indiscriminately, but now that he knows the truth, as she has been helped by Qi Mi, how can she be at ease?

So I've been looking for an opportunity to apologize, but I don't know how to open it.

Now that Qi Yiyi is going to visit, eighty percent of Yantang will also come with her, what will happen when they meet, she is really worried.

Here, Qi Mi was grooming in the room, and Yan Tang handed her a hairpin, and she was also hesitating: "I'm not going, right?" ”

"Why not?" Qi Yiyi looked at the mirror hairpin flower and laughed when she heard the words.

Yan Tang didn't say anything.

He didn't hate Xu Lingying, and he did say that the past was over, but there was no need to visit.

"It's just a courtesy." Qi said. "Sun Peng was transferred to the Imperial Horse Prison as the second eunuch, which shows that the emperor is still thinking about his old relationship with him, why should we lose contact because of that little thing? You see, while you are recuperating from your injuries, Sun Peng has also come to see you several times. ”

Yan Tang was persuaded by her, stretched out his hand to hook her waist, and said in a soft voice: "I haven't been out for a long time, bring more money, and go back to listen to the play with you." ”

Qi Yiyi smiled: "I heard that Jin Changxing received a very solid saddle, which has expired for a long time, I looked at the pattern and felt that it was also very compatible with Yinyue." ”

Yan Tang nodded: "Buy." ”

……

Xiao Heng asked Qin Zhi'an to check for three days, but he didn't find Song Mingyuan, there were forty-nine people with the surname Song last year, and now there are twenty-eight people who can be found in Beijing, but none of them is called Song Mingyuan.

From the point of view of origin, there are also five new science and technology jinshi surnamed Song from Lingnan, and there are three who match the age, but none of them are all the clues.

Gu Xiaoshuang accompanied Xu Lingying to entertain the princess of Dingbei, and she didn't feel that this princess showed signs of being unforgiving during the whole process, and she could also see that she was a lover.

Especially when she and the king of Dingbei stand together, one cold and one hot, one rigid and one soft, seemingly discordant characteristics, but they seem to be so compatible with each other.

When the guests came back, Xu Lingying took a long breath, and at the same time smiled with relief, she didn't say anything, but she just felt as if she had unloaded a big stone.

returned home with vegetables, and as soon as he entered the door, he was stopped by Xiao Heng in the courtyard and told Song Mingyuan that he had no such person.

"Are you mistaken?" Xiao Heng is very confident in himself, "Otherwise, there is no possibility that you will not be able to find out." ”

Gu Xiaoshuang was also puzzled, she clearly remembered these clearly, it was not a complicated matter, how could she not remember clearly?

But what Xiao Heng said also makes sense, if there is such a person, what is there that His Royal Highness the King of Chu can't find?

"What's going to eat tonight?" Xiao Heng was very interested in the dishes she brought back.

Of course, the chefs in the palace are much better than her, but those dishes that are too delicate are not as appetizing as the home-cooked dishes under her hands.

Especially after watching her serious cooking process, you will feel that the food made by her fireworks is particularly fragrant.

"Tofu and pig in the water." Gu Xiaoshuang said as she entered the house.

Xiao Heng followed: "Why did you come back so early today?" ”

"Today, the king and his wife from Dingbei are visiting, and Mrs. Sun will let me come back after sending off the guests." Gu Xiaoshuang said in a letter.

Mr. As usual, he lit the fire, then took out the dishes, and then prepared to cook.

There was plenty of time, so she thought about it for a while, and packed up a duck that she bought yesterday and used it to make konjac duck.

The duck gizzard is taken out and washed, cut in half, wrapped in some salt and sauce, and wrapped in dried lotus leaves soaked in water and put in the ashes.

"Qi Miao?" Xiao Heng touched her chin, rolled her eyes and asked her, "How big is her belly?" Okay? ”

"I heard that it's been almost six months, and it's quite big, and it looks like it's in good shape." Gu Xiaoshuang stopped here when she said: "What do you care about other people's stomachs?" ”

Xiao Heng tugged at the corners of his mouth, slowly walked to the chair and sat down, picked up a radish and played with it in his hand.

Can you not care, that little cub didn't die in the war, and he has to take a share of the credit.
