In the face of Xiao Mingrui's straightforward confession, Bai Qiurui's heart did not fluctuate, and she didn't even blink her eyelids.

She doesn't like to be coerced, or coerced by force.

Obviously, Xiao Mingrui, who is bent on proving himself now, is precisely using a way that disgusts Bai Qiurui the most.

From this moment on, Xiao Mingrui's impression in Bai Qiurui's heart was no longer zero, and had directly dropped to a negative number.

She doesn't care about Xiao Mingrui's confession now, she cares more about how the news of her marriage suspension leaked out.

"Dare to ask my cousin, why did you suddenly say that my marriage with Ning Wangfu was postponed?"

Bai Qiurui did not answer whether the news of the marriage suspension was true or false, but asked Xiao Mingrui where he learned about it.

Xiao Mingrui shook his head to avoid Bai Qiurui's question, and continued to ask Bai Qiurui: "Is it true or false that my cousin only said about this matter?" ”

Bai Qiurui frowned a little unhappily, and the man in front of her who was messing around made her patience exhausted.

"Regardless of whether I marry into King Ning's Mansion or not, I only respect my cousin, and I have never had the mind of a man or a woman."

A categorical sentence destroyed Xiao Mingrui's heart.

His eyes widened and he shook his head in disbelief.

"No, cousin Qiurui, you're lying to me, can't you see that I'm sincere to you?!"

Xiao Mingrui was a little broken, he didn't understand, obviously now that Qiu Rui's cousin's marriage was suspended, he could have a chance to fight for it, why did his cousin be so ruthless.

Could it be that she really fell in love with the noble princess of Ning Wangfu?

Xiao Mingrui's voice trembled, his eyes were already flushed with blood, and he was rejected again and again, this time he didn't talk about it at all, which made the anger in his heart rise all of a sudden.

He yelled at Bai Qiurui uncontrollably: "Are you so rare as the princess of the Ning Palace? You also like to cling to the powerful, do you just want to fly on the branches and be a phoenix?! ”

Bai Qiurui is really starting to get angry now, she thinks that Xiao Mingrui is not only brainless and has no ink on his chest, but also has a mental problem.

Like a gas canister, flammable and explosive.

"Qiu Rui respects you as a cousin, but please don't insult me with your mouth closed. Even if Qiu Rui doesn't have a marriage contract now, she won't like her cousin, but she simply doesn't like it. ”

Bai Qiurui originally thought that it was clear enough, but she didn't expect that this Xiao Mingrui's brain was tendony, so he couldn't get out of it.

has been bullied like this three or four times, even if the clay man has three points of anger.

Bai Qiurui simply made her words clear, and told Xiao Mingrui plainly that she simply didn't like him, and hoped that he would wake up and stop pestering.

Just after she said this, Xiao Mingrui's eyes had turned red, and the anger in his heart, indignation, and dissatisfaction almost devoured his reason.

Xiao Mingyu was also stunned by the situation in front of her, she saw that her brother was about to go on the verge of going berserk, and she wanted to comfort but didn't have the guts.

She has never seen her brother so angry since she was a child.

"What's wrong, Rui'er, what's wrong?"

Xiao Mingrui's commotion alarmed the Liu family in the house, and when Bai Qiurui turned around, she saw her mother walking out of the house.

She opened her mouth lightly, her face calm: "Mother, it's nothing." ”

"Young Master Cousin, what's the matter?"

Liu stepped forward and keenly noticed that Xiao Mingrui's mood was not quite right.

Xiao Mingrui, who was originally so angry that he lost his mind, suddenly saw Liu, and his mind suddenly cleared up a lot.

He stammered a few words that he was fine, and then left the gate of the small courtyard without saying a word.

Bai Qiurui rubbed her eyebrows with a little headache, and Liu thought she was not feeling well.

After Bai Qiurui cheered up and calmed Liu back into the house, her eyes fell on Xiao Mingyu.

"Sister Mingyu, please do me a favor."

Bai Qiurui smiled a little helplessly, although Xiao Mingyu didn't know what she wanted to do, she still nodded without hesitation.

Back in the bedroom, Bai Qiurui shook the hairpin tassel that ate ashes at the bottom of the box.

At the beginning, it was for the sake of Mingyu and her cousins that she reluctantly accepted the step shake given to her by Xiao Mingrui, but now it seems that she can't keep it.

By the time Bai Qiurui returned to the small courtyard with a step, Xiao Mingyu had already understood everything.

She looked a little hesitant: "Sister Qiurui, does it have to be like this?" ”

Xiao Mingyu looked at Bai Qiurui, and felt very uncomfortable. Although she really wanted Bai Qiurui to be her sister-in-law, she also knew that the twisted melon was not sweet.

What's more, she looked at her brother's crazy and paranoid appearance from time to time, and she was worried that Bai Qiurui would not be happy when she got married.

She is caught in the middle by herself, helping anyone, and she can only be powerless.

Bai Qiurui knows Xiao Mingyu's temperament and the little girl's intentions, and she herself understands it.

Without hesitation, he stuffed the step shake into Xiao Mingyu's hand, and Bai Qiurui smiled apologetically.

"I'm afraid it's not appropriate for me to go, so I can only work hard for Sister Mingyu to go for me."

Xiao Mingyu took the step shake, twisted her fingertips and turned, and the tassels falling on the step shook gently with her movements, which was very beautiful.

Xiao Mingyu sighed helplessly, this step is so beautiful, she is sure that her brother really likes Cousin Qiu Rui.

But helplessly, Luohua is deliberately ruthless, and it can only be his brother's wishful thinking.

After sending Xiao Mingyu away, Bai Qiurui decided to go to the Criminal Department tomorrow to find Shen Yuan, and personally came to the door to thank him for his kindness of saving him many times.

Well...... 'by the way' to ask about the case of Ning Wangfu.

In the past few days, she has stayed in the house, and nothing has happened, and her father is also tepid, and she has no clue.

This made Bai Qiurui feel a little anxious, the more there was no news, she was afraid that it would be over in the end, and her postponed marriage would still be on the agenda.

Now Xiao Mingrui in the house doesn't know what rumors he heard, and there was such a fuss today.

Although the person is gone for the time being, she is worried that when Xiao Mingyu helps her return the step shake, Xiao Mingrui will make trouble with herself again.

Instead of having some meaningless quarrels with Xiao Mingrui in the mansion, she might as well go to the Criminal Department to talk to Shen Yuan about the case. Just the cleanness of the fall, the joy of freedom.

The more Bai Qiurui thought about it, the more she felt that her plan was good, so she said she would go.

It's just that when you come to thank you, there must always be a thank you gift.

Bai Qiurui thought about it, she planned to make some food and bring it to Shen Yuan.

Anyway, her father must have brought a generous gift to thank Shen Yuan, so she doesn't need to be so vulgar anymore.

Besides, if you want Shen Yuan to be a dignified scholar of the Criminal Department, what kind of rare playthings, gold, silver and jewelry have never been seen?

Therefore, Bai Qiurui decided to make some dishes as a thank you gift.

Thousands of miles to send goose feathers, the gift is light and affectionate......

After finalizing the itinerary, Bai Qiurui asked Lan'er to instruct her subordinates to prepare in advance the carriage in which she would go out early tomorrow morning.

Then, Bai Qiu. Rui was a little distressed.

What should I do to give to Shen Yuan?

After thinking about it, Bai Qiurui finally decided to make a bowl of almond tofu and bring it to Shen Yuan.

Bai Qiurui got up early the next morning, she had to go to the small kitchen to make almond tofu early, and when the things were ready, it would be almost time.

Almond tofu is a traditional food in ancient times, not only can be used as a snack on its own, but also as a dessert dish at a feast.

Bai Qiurui entered the small kitchen, found the sweet almonds with full grains and cleaned them, and then boiled a pot of boiling water to soak the almonds thoroughly, this step is convenient to peel.

Wait until the almonds are completely soaked, then remove the skin and put it in a stone mill to grind it into a pulp.

When the almonds are completely ground, Bai Qiurui finds a piece of clean gauze and filters out the residue of the almonds to obtain pure almond juice.

Set the almond juice aside, and Bai Qiurui took the prepared agar and put it in a bowl. Add some water, put it in the pot and steam it, and then use gauze to filter out the residue inside.

Raising another pot of boiling water, Bai Qiurui took out a clean porcelain bowl and poured the melted agar liquid and almond juice into the porcelain bowl.

The peeled almonds are as white as jade, and the agar is white, clean and transparent, and the two are mixed together and poured into the porcelain bowl, which is actually two points whiter than the white porcelain.

In a porcelain bowl where the two liquids are fused, pour in fresh milk and sugar, and put them in a pot and boil until they boil.

Use chopsticks to gradually fuse several liquids together, stir until even, and then you can directly remove from the pot.

At present, almond tofu is still only in liquid form, and it will not condense into almond tofu until it is cooled.

Now is the best time to eat some almond tofu, as the weather is getting hotter in early summer.

If the heat is too heavy, your appetite will drop and your appetite will drop sharply. Eat some almond tofu, cool and delicious, but also very cool down, shengjin quenches thirst, moistens the lungs and calms asthma.

When the almond tofu is allowed to cool and solidify, Bai Qiurui carefully cuts them into cubes.

Looking at the tofu in the porcelain bowl, it is white and tender, but the tone is too simple. Bai Qiurui twisted her eyebrows and pondered for a moment, then found some sweet almonds and chopped them and sprinkled them on top of the almond tofu.

At first glance, the white tofu has some fragmented nuts on it, which is much more pleasing to the eye than before.

A good food blogger should not only be able to cook, but also be able to cook well!

Bai Qiurui looked at the almond tofu she made and was very satisfied.

After finding a delicate box and putting it in, Bai Qiurui stepped on the morning sun and got into the carriage to the criminal department.

Today, she went to Shen Yuan, and it was a stop by to thank her, and it was the main thing to ask about the case of Ning Wangfu.

If this marriage contract is not dissolved for a day, it will be a sword hanging over her head after all.

When they arrived at the gate of the Criminal Department, the guards on both sides had already regarded Bai Qiurui as an acquaintance and let him go directly.

This move made her feel a little embarrassed, this ordinary person entered the Criminal Department, even if she stood in front of the door of the Criminal Department, she would be a little nervous.

It seems that under various coincidences, she has entered the criminal department a little abnormally.

Just as he was thanking the guards on both sides of the door, Bai Qiurui saw a familiar person as soon as he entered the door.

"Gu Gongzi?" Bai Qiurui saw Gu Yi walking by not far away, and her face was overjoyed.

She didn't know how to find Shen Yuan before, but now that someone is leading the way, it is much more convenient.

Gu Yi heard Bai Qiurui's voice, stopped, and turned his head to see Bai Qiurui standing at the gate.

He was a little surprised, and walked towards Bai Qiurui with a turn of footsteps: "White girl, why are you here?" ”

As he spoke, he walked in front of Bai Qiurui in three or two steps, and then suddenly woke up.

"Oh, look at my brain, the white girl is here to find Master Shen, right?"

Gu Yi had a narrow smile on his face, and gave Bai Qiurui a meaningful look.

"Miss Bai come with me, I know where Master Shen is now."

Gu Yi smiled and spoke, Bai Qiurui's face was hot when he said it, like a child who had done something bad and was caught.

She took the food box in her hand and followed Gu Yi's steps towards a secluded place.

Bai Qiurui entered the Criminal Department before, and most of them were in one place.

There are still many places in the huge Criminal Ministry Mansion that she has never been, such as the road that Gu Yi took her now.

"White girl, you can be regarded as a coincidence, I was about to go to find Master Shen, why don't we go together."

Gu Yi was idle along the way, he walked and talked, his pace was brisk and casual, like he was walking in his own back garden.

From his words, Bai Qiurui learned that Shen Yuan was looking through the case files of previous years in the Criminal Department early in the morning, which was the path they were walking now.

This criminal ministry mansion is very familiar to Gu Yi, and it didn't take long for Bai Qiurui to be taken by him to a small attic where the files were stored.

In front of the attic, two guards with serious faces stood on both sides, Gu Yi was not surprised, and saluted them without doing anything.

This action looks very casual, a good etiquette, and he was stunned to make a little chic and uninhibited.

Not to mention, it's really a bit of a ruffian to look at.

"The two eldest brothers borrowed one." Gu Yi smiled and said to the two.

Then he tilted his head at Bai Qiurui and motioned for her to follow him in.

Bai Qiurui couldn't help but feel funny, looking at the two guards standing meticulously by the door, looking helpless at Gu Yi's actions.

Then Gu Yi pushed open the door of the attic, and the guards on both sides ignored him, as if they couldn't see him as a big man.

Shaking her head amusedly, Bai Qiurui took a step and prepared to go in.

As soon as she walked to the door of the attic, before she could enter the door with one foot, the guards on both sides of the door reached out to stop her.

"This is the important place of the Criminal Department, and outsiders are not allowed to enter."

The guard standing on the right side spoke calmly, and glanced up and down at Bai Qiurui with his eyes like knives.

Gu Yi had already swaggered into the house, but when he turned his head, he found that Bai Qiurui was stopped outside by the guards.

He suddenly raised his eyebrows, his steps slid down, and the whole person quickly flashed back to the door.

Looking up left and right and glancing at the dutiful guards, Gu Yi grabbed a guard with both hands, and pressed down the hand that stopped Bai Qiurui with both hands.

"Are you two really stupid or fake, can I bring her here if she's an outsider?"

Gu Yi didn't open his mouth, and then continued: "You two listen, this is not an outsider, this will be your Lord Shen's insider in the future!" ”

Bai Qiurui saw that Gu Yi didn't know which hill she had run to when she said something, so she quickly pulled his sleeve.

"Gu Gongzi, don't talk nonsense."
