Aunt Yang looked at Wu Chi smiling with Liu Xu in the carriage, and suddenly felt a warm feeling in her heart.

"Speaking of which, I haven't properly thanked the princess for allowing me to take my son away in front of the west gate. The peaches I picked later will be given to the princess as my thank you gift."

Wu Chi stopped laughing, thinking that Aunt Yang's husband died in the Battle of the Styx, and her sons died one after another, and she couldn't help but feel sympathy in her heart.

"Aunt Yang, it's not easy for you these days. How can I have the nerve to ask for your peach again?"

Aunt Yang smiled so plainly

"How could it be? My son had bad luck in the war, but he had a good general. General Yin would send field troops to come back from time to time to comfort me and help me take care of the orchard. General Yin would also come occasionally. I am old and homeless, and now I have

They are as if my children are still around, and I feel very at ease."

Wu Chi lowered his eyes and smiled. It turned out that the most sincere and kind heart was always hidden under the face that looked like the King of Hell.

—

After Wu Chi picked the peaches, there were still many things to do

First, I need to go to Xiao Yushi's Mansion to deliver wine and talk to Xiao Heng about the dissolution of the engagement. Then I need to go to General Yin's Mansion to deliver wine and take a look at the kitchen. Then I have to go to Sansheng Tavern to see Sang Luo and see if I can

I want some snow banyan wine.

Inside Xiao's Mansion

Wu Chi sat on a chair in the main hall and waited for the boy to call Xiao Heng.

Xiao Heng stood at the door outside the palace, looking in at Wu Chi who was looking around, and he already understood Wu Chi's purpose of coming here.

Wu Chi noticed Xiao Heng at the door and smiled. Xiao Heng immediately dispelled the gloom on his face and smiled brightly.

Liu Xu handed the wine in her hand to the boy beside Xiao Heng.

"This is the Xuerong wine brewed by Sang Luo in the palace. Please ask me to bring you some."

Xiao Heng glanced at the wine for a few times, then turned back to Wu Chi with a smile in his eyes.

"Thank you Sang Luo for me. Princess, please have lunch at Xiao Mansion."

Wu Chi's smile froze a bit on his face. He originally planned to go to General Yin's Mansion to have a big meal at the restaurant, but he hadn't tasted Liu Zhangshao's craftsmanship for a long time.

"No, I have to go to General Yin's mansion to deliver wine."

Xiao Heng tilted his head, with some disappointment in his eyes. Wu Chi pursed his lips, made up his mind and was about to speak, when he heard Xiao Heng lowered his eyes.

"The princess is here to ask me to go to His Majesty to annul the marriage, right?"

Wu Chi was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"Xiao Heng, we are not suitable, and..."

Xiao Heng's voice was trembling, not because he was sad but rather because he was a little angry.

"And the princess already has her heart set on... General Yin, right?"

When Xiao Heng saw Wu Chi nodding his head, his eyes were so sincere, he hesitated for a moment and suppressed his anger.

"I won't. I will never give you up to anyone else in my life, especially Yin Qu."

Wu Chi took a breath and understood why Xiao Heng was like this. Xiao Heng had grown up in such a family environment since he was a child. He had always stood by his side to accompany him. He would mistakenly think that he was the only person who was good to him.

Mistaking gratitude for love.

"Xiao Heng, you will meet the right person. She will give you warmth and will always stand in front of you to protect you. That person is not me."

Xiao Heng raised his eyes and looked at Wu Chi, his eyes shining with determination.

"How do you know that person is not you? I want you."

Wu Chi frowned, feeling that Xiao Heng's mood was getting worse and worse, and his eyes kept holding on to him tightly.

"Xiao Heng..."

Wu Chi gently called Xiao Heng's name, hoping to wake up the boy from before. Wu Chi felt that the current Xiao Heng seemed to be covered by something. He couldn't see in and couldn't get out.

Xiao Heng breathed heavily and got up and walked, giving the order to expel guests.

"Send Princess Anping out of the palace."

Wu Chi looked at the back of Xiao Heng who refused to communicate, feeling extremely helpless and confused. He had to dissolve his marriage with Xiao Heng.

After coming out of Xiao Mansion, Wu Chi was in a low mood and sighed several times on the carriage until the carriage stopped and Liu Xu spoke.

"Princess, General Yin's mansion has arrived."

Wu Chi raised his eyebrows, calmed down his mood, and got out of the carriage.

General Yin's mansion was basically the same as before he entered the palace, and the soldiers on both sides still looked at death with a look on their faces.

As if Wu Chi was going home, he told the soldiers at the door that there was no need to announce anything, and asked again what he remembered.

"Where is General Yin?"

The soldier replied righteously, "General Yin should be in the kitchen."

Wu Chi seemed to have heard something terrible and said in surprise

"When did your general become interested in the kitchen?"

The soldier replied

"The general has been in the kitchen for a long time if he had nothing to do."

Wu Chi nodded blankly and walked inside, towards the kitchen.

In the kitchen

The fog was slowly approaching, and when I looked inside through the paper window, I saw a tall figure immersed in the stove, pressing it one by one, as if kneading noodles, and there seemed to be something far away far away.

The shadows of several people were crowded together, seeming to be looking at the person making the meeting.

Then the person inside spoke, it was Liu Zhangshao

"General, this batch seems to have been cooled. Can you try it?"

The tall, dark figure walked towards the plate next to the steamer with his sleeves rolled up. He put his left hand on his waist and picked up the contents with his right hand, tasted it and shook his head.

"It's not too sweet and it's a bit cold. She can't eat something so cold."

Wu Chi knew that "she" must be talking about him. Wu Chi listened intently with a smile in his eyes, wondering what Yin Qu was doing.

"The general has done it dozens of times, and this time it is the best and closest to Luo Bingsu. The owner of Luo Bingsu Shop must be very satisfied when he knows that someone can do this like his real one."

Luo Bingsu! Wu Chi’s pupils suddenly dilated. The owner of Luo Bingsu Shop had moved back to the countryside because he was old, far away from the capital. According to Liu Zhangshao, Yin Qu should have specially learned from the owner of Luo Bingsu Shop.

Pass.

Wu Chi walked to the door and looked at Yin Qu's back. He was so beautiful, and he seemed to like Yin Qu more and more.

Wu Chi made a gesture of silence to Liu Zhangshao and his group who discovered him. They looked at each other and smiled, then silently exited the kitchen.

Yin Qu looked at the falling ice cake on the plate and shook his head.

A white and slender hand appeared in front of him, picking up the Luobingsu on the plate. Yin Qu took advantage of the situation and looked over, and saw Wuchi stuffing the Luobingsu into his mouth with a big mouthful, his eyes widened in laughter.

Yin Qu was a little surprised. This was not meant to be given to Wu Chi in the end, but when he saw Wu Chi smiling sweetly, he felt a little happier.

Yin Qu raised his hand to wipe away the crumbs of Luobingsu from the corner of Wu Chi's mouth. After Wuchi chewed it and swallowed it, he felt that the original taste of Luobingsu was not much different from that of Luobingsu, but it had a little more unique sweetness than Luobingsu.

It tastes like some sweet herbal medicine.

"Except for the hint of sweet herbs, this is the flavor I like of Luobingsu. What did the general add to it?"

Yin Qu has a smile on his face

"The ice is crispy and cold, and you have a cold, so I added licorice to it."

Wu Chi nodded in sudden realization and said solemnly

"I declare that the general's Luo Bingsu has been completed and there is no need to practice anymore."

Yin Qu smiled, "There are still some flaws."

Wu Chi shook his head and walked closer

"This Luobingsu was originally made for me, so of course it is as good as I said it would be, what the general said."

Wu Chi's eyes seemed to be filled with stars, and there was a beautiful halo around his pupils. Yin Qu's eyes flickered, flowing between Wu Chi's eyes.

No matter now or in the past, Wu Chi has always been warming himself.

"I'm here to bring you wine, Xuerong wine brewed by Sang Luo in the palace."

"Thank you, Miss Sang, for me."

"After lunch, I will go to Sansheng Tavern. General, if you have nothing to do, you can go with me."

Wu Chi tilted his head and saw the white flour rubbed on the side of Yin Qu's cheek, and naturally wiped it off for Yin Qu.

Yin Qu felt Wu Chi's white and tender fingers gently stroking his face, and his heart suddenly softened.

"Okay, it's just that I occupy the kitchen and Liu Zhangshao hasn't had time to make lunch yet."

Wu Chi clapped his hands happily, "That's just right. I haven't cooked for a long time, so I can show off my skills."
