"You lied that you went to see Miss Su on the day you didn't return home until nightfall, but you actually went to Jixiang Building. Because there are a lot of things to prepare for a food festival, and you have to take care of everything, so you will be busy until so late. If there is no accident, the four sisters of the Liu family are also used by you. You know they like you to fight against you, so you bring them to the food festival and let them build a hype for you. The palace dim sum was sold and got off to a good start, and the four sisters of the Liu family contributed a lot. Of course, it was an unexpected joy for the county lord of Yongjia to participate in the auction, you deliberately provoked her, and you earned more than 100,000 taels from her alone. Speaking of this, Zhou Dui's deep eyes became gloomy: "Xiyan, do you know what your biggest flaw is?" ”

Gu Xiyan has so many flaws in his heart, but there are even bigger flaws that he has discovered?

She really couldn't think of any flaws, so she replied obediently: "I don't know." ”

Looking at her quiet and well-behaved appearance, Zhou Dui's heart was hot, and she couldn't help but want to hug her, but she couldn't fall for her beauty trick at this time.

"The 'soaring sky' you did. Since it is a secret dish of the palace, how can it be easily copied by you? The fragrance you make is exactly the same as the one that was photographed by the county lord of Yongjia, although I haven't tried the one of the county lord of Yongjia, but I believe that even the taste is the same. So there's only one possibility, it's the dish you created yourself. ”

Gu Xiyan was speechless for a while, and after a while, she quibbled: "Don't you allow me to have talent in cooking?" You will learn what you learn. ”

Zhou Du looked at her with a faint expression, obviously not believing her words.

Facing Zhou Dui's eyes that saw through everything, Gu Xiyan was finally defeated: "Jixianglou is one of the dowries prepared for me before my mother died. It was built ten years ago, and my mother passed away in the year I was born, and there is a six-year time difference, and no one would have thought that the real owner of Jixiang House was me. I also learned two years ago that the shopkeeper Wu of Jixiang Building had received the favor of my mother, who used to be in the restaurant business, but because he was killed by a traitor, it was difficult to support his family. ”

After a pause, she continued:

"That year, my mother was in the boudoir, the Gu family was in business, and my mother was not short of money, and she saved the Wu shopkeeper's family at a critical moment. Since then, Shopkeeper Wu has been doing things for my mother. It's a pity that my mother died not long after she gave birth to me after marrying into the Wanqinghou Mansion, and my mother's plan to build a restaurant for me was not implemented. Shopkeeper Wu stayed in the capital for a few years after my mother's death, and finally found an opportunity to open the restaurant. When I was fourteen years old, I learned that Jixianglou was the dowry my mother wanted to give me. So when I was called over by the Queen Mother for questioning, I was really not afraid, after all, I had never directly operated Jixiang Building in the real sense, but I occasionally made suggestions, and the shopkeeper of the restaurant was originally Wu Tong. ”

"No wonder the reputation of Jixianglou gradually spread two years ago, it turned out to be your credit." Zhou Du was thoughtful.

Gu Xiyan was embarrassed: "I happened to have a little research on food, so I gave some ideas to Shopkeeper Wu." In the past, the business of Jixianglou was not bad, but it lacked some characteristics. The capital is also a place where the powerful gather, many nobles are not bad for silver, as long as the dishes are fresh and the taste is excellent, they will not be patronized by diners. Later, I came up with a way to make a new dish every month, so that diners have the opportunity to try it, and also let diners remember Jixianglou every month......"

Zhou Du listened attentively, secretly thinking that since she had rarely been out of the Hou Mansion in the past, where did she get these insights? It's all in the book.

Gu Xiyan talked a long list of words, only to realize that Zhou Duan was too quiet.

"Xiyan, you never seem to have asked me who my family was, nor did you ask me why I grew up in the Fallen Immortal Temple." Zhou Du took a sip of tea and opened his lips indifferently.

Gu Xiyan sighed in his heart, and secretly said that he was finished.

She herself revealed such a flaw and didn't notice it, and it was only through his reminder that she found out the problem.

If she hadn't decided on this family affair with Zhou Dui, then it would be reasonable for her not to inquire about his family history, but they had decided to get married, and they would be married in February next year, but she didn't mention his family at all.

This simply does not make sense.

Zhou Du saw Gu Xiyan's confused look, and couldn't help but wonder: "Did you know my identity earlier?" ”

Gu Xiyan opened her mouth, not knowing how to answer for a while.

"I remember going to the Fallen Immortal Temple on the ninth day of the ninth month of September, you seem to be very familiar with the terrain of the Fallen Immortal Temple, and you don't need me to lead the way, you found the Bamboo Garden......"

Gu Xiyan laughed dryly, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea to suppress the shock: "That, that's just a coincidence, I just walked blindly, and somehow I arrived in front of the bamboo garden." ”

Zhou Du took a deep look at his girl, she was insincere in finding this excuse.

"Do you know who I am?!" Zhou Du asked the same question again.

He guessed that this girl would probably not answer honestly.

The truth was just as he had guessed, the girl blinked her beautiful apricot eyes, her eyelashes flapping like wings, and she was obviously a little nervous.

She looked left and right with beautiful eyes, and said softly: "According to the son's bearing and character, it should be either rich or expensive." Because Childe didn't take the initiative to speak, I was thinking that if Childe wanted to say it, he would naturally tell me. If Childe doesn't want to say, even if I ask, Childe won't answer. ”

Zhou Du smiled angrily: "I am about to marry you next year, and you will be my wife at that time, husband and wife are one, is it possible that you and I have become relatives, and you don't want to know who my parents are?!" ”

He stared at Gu Xiyan's eyes, and Gu Xiyan's eyes were a little evasive.

She knew she was exposed, but how was she going to explain knowing his identity? You can't tell him that she was reborn and returned, and she accompanied him all his life in her previous life, right?

Don't say that other people think it's ridiculous, and if she hadn't experienced it herself, she wouldn't have believed that there was such a bizarre thing in this world.

Anyway, as long as she doesn't admit it, he can't do anything about her.

"I want to know who Childe's parents are, why Childe grew up in the Fallen Immortal Temple, is Childe willing to tell me?!" Gu Xiyan simply met Zhou Dusk's gaze and asked frankly.

Zhou Du couldn't help but go up to Gu Xiyan's tender cheeks and pinch them hard twice to vent his anger: "You clearly know my identity!" ”

Gu Xiyan replied with an innocent face: "Childe's words are so unreasonable. I'm not a roundworm in Childe's stomach, how do I know Childe's identity? Yes, listening to the meaning of the childe, the identity of the son still has a great origin? ”

Zhou Du looked at her helplessly, and didn't know what to do with her scoundrel for a while.

Gu Xiyan looked at Zhou Dui's helpless appearance, and couldn't help but smile: "If the identity of the son is too noble, then how can I, a down-and-out noblewoman, be worthy of the son?" ”
