Gu Xiaoshuang really wanted to say when she became the old mother who cooked for him? After all, he was made out of temper by his skinless and faceless.

This day is the Lantern Festival, dinner made a pot of hot and fragrant haggis soup as the main dish, put dried peppers, cinnamon, star anise, coriander and so on, the aroma wafted out of the whole yard.

There are also four kinds of stuffed Lantern Festival, nothing more than peanuts, sesame seeds, nuts, etc., but when Gu Xiaoshuang sat down with them and happily shouted "eat", Xiao Heng actually tasted a little bit of the warmth that can only be seen from other people's homes since he was a child.

He saw that Gu Xiaoshuang, who was heading to the side, had a little flour on her face, and couldn't help but stretch out her thumb to help her wipe it.

After the meal, Aji clamored to go to the street to see the lights, Ziying took him to the street, and the street at the door was very lively, not afraid of any chaos.

Before Xiao Heng left the kitchen after eating, Gu Xiaoshuang chatted with him while cleaning up.

Tan Zishao was still looking for trouble, and no one deliberately mentioned it to Xiao Heng, and he didn't pay attention to this aspect.

What he was most interested in recently was how many tricks she could make with the coarse tea and light rice at hand, those not big hands vaguely seemed to be able to spell, and she could make more than a dozen varieties of rice.

Pork and mutton or something common meat, she can come up with the idea of using the iron plate as a pot, then putting oil on it, cutting the meat into large and thin slices, putting it on the idea of frying it raw, and then sprinkling seasoning on it like seven or eight medium rare, which tastes surprisingly good.

Xiao Heng felt as if he had found a new joy in life, this small dilapidated courtyard full of fireworks had already taken root.

"This is called being in the midst of blessings and not knowing blessings."

After Gu Xiaoshuang was done, she made a clear tea to get tired, and sat around the stove with him and chatted.

The charcoal left over from cooking usually let her carefully put it in the clay urn to suffocate, and she can save a furnace of red charcoal at night.

"If I were you, with a good background and wealth, and great power, I would wake up laughing in my dreams."

"Then why don't you go back to the palace with me? I will double the amount of money Sun Peng will give you, and I will still cover you. ”

"No, no." She said, "Why should I go? ”

"Because I'm powerful!" He said.

"I don't intend to be powerful, and no matter how powerful you are, it won't be of much use to me." Gu Xiaoshuang sipped tea and said.

The tea he had brought was one of the few things he had done since he lived, and she could follow it with a little light.

Xiao Heng leaned back in the chair and looked at her lazily with a smile, and suddenly felt a little helpless.

Anyway, the most interesting thing about him is only his power, right? But she really didn't care.

Compared with the helplessness caused by him wanting Qi Yiyi to marry him, but she had to hang herself on Yantang's tree, it is much more boring now.

Because at least to Qi Miao, he can shamelessly reveal his intentions.

Qi Mi actually has a complex personality, such as her inexplicable rejection of him from the beginning, obviously she should be a spoiled young lady who is as simple as a blank sheet of paper, but her way of thinking often makes him feel that she has also experienced some struggles in her heart.

Many times, she always seems to deliberately choose the simple way.

He also struggled along the way, so he was able to empathize with some aspects of her behavior.

Maybe that's what it is, which is particularly attractive to him, and at that time he thought that if he could drag her to accompany him at the bottom of the pit, he would be entangled or struggling, but he could also have a companion.

But they are not destined to become each other's sunshine, Yan Tang, a person who has not experienced entanglement and struggle, is honest and kind, and delicate, which is what she needs.

But the person opposite is really simple, and there is really no trace of being rubbed by life, so even he claims to be drunk due to frustration, which is hypocritical in her opinion.

Regarding her attitude towards the world, he could not help but smile at her, as if he really had nothing to do with her.

……

Before going to bed at night, Su Peiying called the housekeeper to the study: "You take two people who know Tan Zishao to guard outside the alley on the left side of Jinghua Temple, if he appears, come and tell me immediately." ”

Because he has frequent contacts with his colleagues, the people around him know the people in his yamen. Tan Zishao climbed to Zuofu again, so it was easier to recognize.

Thinking about it, although this matter really has nothing to do with him, it is really not his style to let him sit on the sidelines and watch.

After the Lantern Festival, Xu Lingying had no entertainment, and Gu Xiaoshuang was able to have two days off.

Since Zi Ying was ready to return to her hometown, she accompanied her out to find a caravan at the beginning of the day, but how could it be so easy to find?

It is difficult for the other party to meet someone who happens to be on the same road, not to mention, even if there is, it has to see if it is reliable, after all, if there is any accident, it is difficult to say whether they will be responsible for taking care of it.

She didn't rush to express her opinion, because she always felt that escaping was not a really useful idea.

When I came back to cook at noon, I saw Qin Zhi'an come again, and he entered the room with Xiao Heng and muttered for a long time.

She guessed that it was for Song Mingyuan's business, and after Qin Zhi'an left, she went to Xiao Heng's room.

"How's it going?" She asked.

"I've been busy with you since the morning." Xiao Heng said, "The three divisions have already checked, and there is no one that matches." Zhian has already gone to check the sixth, and if nothing else, there should be results before dinner. ”

Gu Xiaoshuang thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's okay, if there are no six parts, I will give up too." ”

After all, she is living a good life by herself now, and she really can't find it, so she will make plans again.

Xiao Heng squinted at her: "Yo, this is giving up?" Isn't it about the rest of your life? ”

"yes, but if I can't find him, I have to live, right?" She said, holding a radish in her hand that was ready to be peeled.

Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows when he heard her say this. looked at her for a while, and then said: "It's good to know, why rely on a man who can't find his whereabouts?" ”

Gu Xiaoshuang was stunned: "Who said I want to rely on men?" ”

"It's your own saying that the rest of your life depends on your cousin."

"Did I say that? What I'm saying is that he's important to me! ”

"Doesn't it mean the same?" Xiao Heng hugged the pillow and said, "Anyway, you originally planned to live with him." ”

Gu Xiaoshuang felt that he was playing the piano to the cow.

Tan Zishao got off the yagong and went straight to Liusi Hutong, and found the beggar who was looking forward to the prime minister at the mouth of the alley: "How is it?" ”

"I inquired about it, after the officials left yesterday, the kid who lived on the left side of the courtyard went to the Hesheng teahouse at the corner of the street!"

Tan Zishao recognized Abu according to what he pointed to, then threw a broken silver to him, gritted his teeth, and went to Hesheng again.

Hesheng's shopkeeper is very familiar with Lin Ziying, so he naturally knows where she lives, and when the sun is in the west, Tan Zishao arrived at Jinghua Temple, and immediately gritted his teeth at the courtyard where familiar clothes were hung.

He didn't necessarily have to kill Lin Ziying, but she still didn't know the current affairs, and she actually played with him to get rid of the golden cicada, which made the little trust he still had in her come to naught.

Since she can move secretly, who can guarantee that she will not quietly run to Zuo Sheng to talk nonsense when she turns around?

For this matter, he has been unable to sleep lately, and has reached the point where he has no patience at all.

If she doesn't leave, he will never be at ease.

If you don't give her a bitter taste, maybe she won't know what to do!
