142 Watching a play

Master Zhang and Mo Yan also came over, it was too fragrant.

Hua Ronghua gently pressed the cake and shook his head a little dissatisfied, "It's not enough, can't you make such a soft cake without baking powder?" ”

"Okay, no?" Although he adheres to the rules of a gentleman's cooking, Gong Xichu couldn't help but soften his eyes when he looked at the freshly baked cake, this was made by himself! There was a faint pride in my heart, as if I had won a battle on the battlefield for the first time.

"Alright, alright." Although the appearance is not good enough, the taste is really not enough. Hua Ronghua cut the cake into small pieces and put it on a plate, handed one plate to Gongxi Chu, and handed the other plate to Mo Yan and Master Zhang, "You guys also take it and taste it." ”

"Then thank ......" Master Zhang is an authentic foodie, and he can't stand it when he smells it, and at this time, he saw that Miss Xiaohua was busy with the cake, but he didn't want to tear it up for Mo Yan.

As soon as he wanted to be annoyed, he saw Mo Yan looking straight behind him, Master Zhang looked back in surprise, only to see Gongxi Chuhei's calm face, and his fierce eyes staring at him, as if he was looking at a dead person, the frightened Master Zhang shuddered, and hurriedly retracted his hand, "No, no need." Then he fled from the kitchen with Mo Yan.

Hua Ronghua turned around and saw a man with a fierce face, and couldn't help laughing, "What's wrong with giving them two bites?" As for protecting your food so much! ”

"This is made by my own hands, why should I give them food?" Gongxi Chu said arrogantly.

Phew, what do you mean by making it yourself, it's just egg whites! Hua Ronghua slandered in his heart, but he had to smile and agree.

That night, Gong Xichu almost ate the cake as dinner, which disappointed Mo Yan and Master Zhang, who still had leftovers.

The next morning, when Mo An came back, he only heard Chef Zhang say how fragrant the cake smelled last night, and he didn't even see it.

"What are you doing here? Didn't I let you stay in the county seat? Gongxi Chu rolled his eyes and was a little resentful.

Mo An restrained his expression and hurriedly replied: "Master, when the little one went to deliver strawberries to the county magistrate last night, the county magistrate asked the servant to give you a message, and he said that the widow came back and was enclosed in her own house." ”

Hua Ronghua was slandering Gong Xichu in his belly and being cunning, obviously looking down on those strawberries so much, he actually sent them to the county order! Suddenly, when I heard the word widow, I couldn't help but look up and ask, "Which widow?" Is it Ginger Widow? ”

Gong Xichu smiled and pinched the cheek of the woman who was eating strawberries, "Yes, it's good if people come back, and only when they come back can the master give you anger!" ”

"You're angry with me? It's true? Hua Ronghua was happy and worried, "You don't want to kill her, do you?" Forget it, although she has a bad heart, but the crime does not lead to death, and there is Jiang Wen! That kid is nice and polite. ”

"I said, there are quite a few people who make you worry about it!" Gong Xichu felt that his rare and bright mood immediately became cloudy.

Hua Ronghua was also obedient, and immediately changed his words, "Am I still for you?" It's not good to get into people's lives just because of that idea, and besides, isn't that also a trouble for the county magistrate? ”

"That's what you really think? Are you worried about me? Gongxi Chu looked at her obliquely, still a little unconvinced.

"Of course! What do you think, what is my relationship with you? Widow Jiang is the one who harmed me, how could I care about her? Hua Ronghua nodded again and again, the more he came into contact with this man, the more he found that this man was like a big child who invited pets, sometimes so naΓ―ve that he couldn't do it.

"Well, I accept that. So, in return, I'll take a good breath for you! Gong Xichu was satisfied, smiled at Hua Ronghua, stood up and beckoned his two little servants to go with him.

Hua Ronghua was stunned for a moment, almost fascinated by the man's charming smile, came back to his senses and hurriedly chased out, "Hey, you haven't said how to help me get angry?" I'm going too! ”

Gong Xichu turned around and patted the woman's head, and said with a smile: "I haven't arranged it yet, I'll take you to see it when it's arranged." Besides, aren't you going to harvest strawberries today? ”

"Don't hit me on the head all the time!" Hua Ronghua pursed his lips and slapped the man's hand but it was empty, and then shouted to Gong Xichu who was walking out: "Hey, you must take me to see it when it is arranged!" ”

At first, Hua Ronghua still wondered how Gongxi Chu took revenge on Widow Jiang and others, but when Zhuangzi and people from Liujia Village sent strawberries one after another, he forgot about it.

Hua Ronghua felt that he was going to be busy and crazy, and he actually worked all day to pick strawberries, pack them, and pay for the work, and in the afternoon, with the help of Master Zhang, he had sorted out the wooden boxes of six bamboo baskets.

"Okay, just wait for Mo Yan to come back and send them back to the ice cellar." Hua Ronghua wiped the sweat on his head, then pointed to the remaining half basket of strawberries on the table and said to Master Zhang: "Please help me all day, you can take these back and eat them." ”

Master Zhang shook his head, "I don't like to eat this sour thing, can Miss Xiaohua tell me how to make that cake yesterday?" ”

"Okay, you can make more then, and I'll eat ready-made." Hua Ronghua felt that it was very troublesome to make cakes, and it was natural that someone rushed to make it.

For seven days, Gongxi Chu went out on the first day, and later took Mo An to watch Huaronghua harvest strawberries in Zhuangzi. The wild strawberries on the hill near Liujiazhuang were all picked, and later they went to the neighboring villages to collect a lot, a total of more than 30 baskets, each basket had at least 10 boxes of strawberries, and the ice cellar accounted for more than half.

After settling the final wages for the strawberry picker and the willow carpenter, Hua Ronghua was almost paralyzed, and he was entrusted to Gongxi Chu's arms, and said angrily: "When I wait until winter, I must sell hundreds of Wen per box, or I'm sorry for my tiredness these days!" ”

"Only a few hundred wen? Won't you lose? Gong Xichu frowned, he knew best what his woman had been tired of these days, if she hadn't taken the initiative to lean into his arms before!

"Probably not." Hua Ronghua grabbed his fingers and counted, "There are a total of four hundred wooden boxes, and I will give one or two taels of silver to the willow carpenter, and those who pick strawberries will pay less than nine hundred yuan in total, so the total cost is only two or two dollars, and even if a box is sold for ten yuan, it will not be able to lose." However, it is rare to have fresh fruits in winter, so the price has to rise! ”

Gong Xichu looked at the little woman and looked like a little profiteer, he didn't feel funny, and rubbed the top of her head with his chin, "Are you done?" We're done with the show, and we'll go to the theater tomorrow! ”

"What play?" Hua Ronghua didn't react for a while.

"Naturally, it's the fate of those who bully you!"

"Oh, Ginger widows! All right! Then I'll clean up and go to bed early, so I don't have to get up tomorrow. ”

"Wait a minute, there's something for you." Gong Xichu pulled the woman who was about to get up back into his arms.

Hua Ronghua twisted his body uncomfortably, "Don't make trouble!" Mo An wanted to enter the house just now, but when he saw this scene, he hurriedly retreated.

"Here's for you!" Gong Xichu said and handed a silver open bracelet to Hua Ronghua.

"It's ......"

The bracelet is blunt silver, and a silk flower is carved around the bracelet body, and the branches and leaves are stretched out and lifelike.

Gong Xichu twisted one end of the bracelet twice, and then flicked the top of the bracelet hard, and the good bracelet turned into two! Half of the larger ones have flower branches entwined on them, and half of them are smaller, basically clusters of small flowers, and the middle is hollow!

"I'll put you in a silver ticket for this." Gong Xichu handed the bracelet to Hua Ronghua, who was a little stunned, "When you open it, twist it twice outward in this place with flowers and then dial it up, press it in and then twist it twice when you lock it, don't stuff the silver ticket everywhere."

Hua Ronghua took the bracelet with a red face and asked puzzledly: "How do you know ......?"

"Why didn't I know, you almost cried because the strawberries dyed your purse, for fear that the silver ticket was also dyed!"

"Humph!" Hua Ronghua pushed him, picked up the bracelet and ran away, this man is so annoying, even if he knows, he can't say it! However, this bracelet is so much to her heart's content!

The next morning, the group came to the county seat, and Gongxi Chu directly took Hua Ronghua to a teahouse.

Sitting down in the private room on the second floor, Hua Ronghua listened to the storyteller in the lobby foaming at the ancient times, and couldn't help asking: "You won't let me listen to the book, right?" ”

"Look outside!" Gongxi Chu motioned to Mo An to open the window, and the lively cries immediately came up clearly.

Hua Ronghua looked at it for a while, and suddenly found that the alley where Widow Jiang's house was located was actually facing the second floor, and couldn't help but glance at Gong Xichu, how long does this man have to find such an excellent location! He frowned again, "But I can't see it here!" ”

Gongxi Chu paused as he poured tea, "You can also go to the door of Jiang's house to see, but I finally picked you out, and I don't care if I am recognized again!" ”

"Uh......" Hua Ronghua was also afraid of being recognized, but if he couldn't see the fate of Widow Jiang with his own eyes, he felt itchy in his heart, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "It's better for us to disguise!" ”

"Disguise?!"

After a while, Gong Xichu looked at his new outfit with a dark face, gritted his teeth and asked, "This is the disguise you are talking about?" ”

I saw that the two of them were wearing ankle-length cyan cloaks and smiling masks on their faces, not to mention being taken out, even men and women couldn't see it. But if you really walk down the street like this, you will be 100% besieged.

"How? So that others will not recognize it. Hua Ronghua lifted half of the mask and was still a little proud, and took the man's hand and walked outside the teahouse, "Come on, you should be out of sight for a while." ”

Gong Xichu directly threw away the mask on his face, then picked up Hua Ronghua and rushed out of the window directly.

"Ahh Hua Ronghua screamed in fright and hugged the man's neck tightly.

"If you want everyone on the street to see us, keep calling!" Gongxi Chu continued to borrow strength on the roof ridge and rushed to Jiang's house.

Hearing his words, Hua Ronghua decisively bit the corner of his mouth and stopped making a sound. Suddenly, she noticed that Gong Xichu had stopped, and then she was gently put down.

Hua Ronghua opened her eyes in surprise and saw that she was lying on a roof with Gong Xichu, and below was the small courtyard of the Jiang family where she had lived for a few months.
