Chen Zheng, the lord of Weiyang City, was standing at the end of the market, chatting with an old couple who were over the age of sixties, and the words were nothing more than asking about the physical condition and living status of the old couple, so as to understand the current living conditions of the people of Weiyang Mountain, and secondly, to pass the boring time.

When Zhu Zhen and Cao Wu came over, the couple was also ready to leave.

Zhu Zhen looked at the departing couple, and then glanced at the city lord Chen Zheng in front of him, and thought to himself, this city lord of Weiyang City is indeed a benevolent and righteous monarch, who can take the initiative to understand the people's sufferings and integrate with the people. I also admired this Weiyang City Lord in my heart.

Chen Zheng looked at what Cao Wu was holding in his hand, which were all vegetarian vegetables, and couldn't help asking, "Miss Zhu Zhen, how can this dignified Wu family eat some vegetables every day, is it really thrifty?" ”

Zhu Zhen couldn't help but smile when she heard the city lord's words, "The city lord probably doesn't know that the Wu family is famous for being rich and powerful, and they are not particularly extravagant and wasteful when they eat on weekdays, but it doesn't mean that they only eat some vegetables." It's just that today is my idea, and the Wu family is not short of ingredients, these vegetables are all my own ideas. Don't look at these simple vegetables, being able to make simple things delicious is a real skill, don't you say? ”

The city lord only knew at this moment that Zhu Zhen was quite insightful about cooking. "Oh, what Miss Zhu Zhen said is really different, I wonder which chef wants to make such a green vegetable?"

Zhu Zhen smiled happily at the city lord again, "The city lord doesn't know, I once apprenticed to Fan Shi, the chef of the Wu family, and Master Fan Shi's craft has also learned a lot, so naturally there is a little woman who will do it." ”

When the city lord heard this, he instantly felt incredible in his heart, "It turns out that Miss Zhu Zhen can also be in charge of cooking?" I can't tell the difference in my eyes. In that case, let's go, I'm curious to see how Miss Zhu Zhen made this simple dish. ”

The city lord glanced at the green vegetables in Cao Wu's hand again, in addition to the celery, angelica leaves, cherry blossoms, and a few lotus roots, thinking that it was also funny in his heart.

Zhu Zhen also knew the city lord's mind at this time, so he was naturally not convinced. Thinking about it, where can the city lord of Weiyang City eat these simple dishes that can't be simpler? It must be spent on it, so as not to be looked down upon in the eyes of this dignified city lord.

It didn't take long for the three of them to arrive outside the gate of the Wu family's courtyard, Zhu Zhen stepped forward and buttoned the knocker, and Cai Dian, who was guarding the door, limped and hurriedly walked to the door and opened the door.

Seeing that it was Zhu Zhen, I was overjoyed.

"Miss Zhu Zhen is not too late to return, Cai Dian is still worried about the girl." Zhu Zhen invited the two city lords to come in, and Cai Dian saw that the two people who came in were polite, presumably not ordinary people, so he saluted the two.

Zhu Zhen hurriedly introduced, "On the way, I met a friend of Master Wu, so I came back together, and I asked Master Cai to call Master Wu to greet him." As soon as Cai Dian heard that it was Wu You's friend, he agreed again and again, and walked towards Wu You.

The city lord of Weiyang City looked at the Wu family's house, grass and trees, and couldn't help but say, "This Wu friend has lived a quiet and widowed life, and it is difficult to hide the difference under the quiet widowhood, I heard that this Wu family has always relied on power, and ordinary people have not dared to offend him, I don't know if it is true or false?" ”

The city lord looked at Zhu Zhen, where did Zhu Zhen dare to speak, not to mention that this was the Wu family. I can't say what happened to me, I can't say it, this is what Zhu Zhen thinks in her heart, because she still doesn't know the original intention of this city lord and her weakness in front of the forces.

This Wu family has tortured themselves for eight years, and it is also a matter of one finger for someone to pinch her to death, and it is better to live than to die, because when she is dead, there will be no day of resistance.

At this time, the housekeeper Tang Gong came when he heard the voice, and he didn't know if he heard the words of the city lord of Weiyang City, but when he saw Zhu Zhen and the two people beside Zhu Zhen, he was a little puzzled in his heart, and he only muttered in his heart. But out of politeness, he still saluted the two.

Zhu Zhen saw Tang Gong and Butler Tang, and hurriedly explained to him, "Master Tang, these two are two friends of Master Wu who I met on the road, and fortunately they helped me bring back some of the purchased ingredients along the way. ”

Then he turned around and introduced Tang Gong to the city lord.
