Yan Yu secretly looked at Wang Wanzhi, who smiled and asked her mother softly: "Mom, aren't you used to eating?"
Sima Yunxue said calmly: "I reluctantly entered."
A trace of embarrassment appeared on Yan Yu's face: "Madam, how about I go cook some dishes for you again."
Sima Yunxue said coldly: "No need."
Wang Wanzhi said: "Mother is going to stay here for a while. Yan Yu, you can tell me to go down and call the best cook in the house here."
When Yan Yu heard this, he realized that the best cook was Xie Fu, but Xie Fu was blind.
Furthermore, during the period of observing filial piety, one must avoid suspicion, and even if one comes to thank Fu, one cannot come.
Sima Yunxue said: "No need, keep everything simple during the filial piety period." She thought to herself that no matter how much better she could be than him, he was the only one in the group, and everyone else was in the same group.
Thinking about it, I missed the meaty and oily pig intestines wrapped in glutinous rice. It smelled a little bit. If I could get over the hurdle in my heart, it would be really delicious and addictive.
Sima Yunxue didn't eat much and went back to her room to rest.
After Sima Yunxue left, Yan Yu whispered: "Miss, I didn't expect Madam to be so tricky. Although the food I cook is not as good as Mr. Xie, it's not too bad."
Wang Wanzhi said with a smile: "My mother is also good at cooking. Of course, the food you cook is difficult for her to judge."
Yan Yu said: "It seems that we have to thank Fu for his help. Thank you for being able to conquer Madam's arrogant mouth."
Wang Wanzhi scolded her lightly: "You girl, you are talking about my mother, how could you use such a mocking tone?"
Yan Yu chuckled: "Miss, you know Yan Yu. The more you act like this, the more you treat yourself as one of our own. If it's not important to you, Mr. Xie, or Madam, I don't want to mention it."
"Miss, doesn't Madam not like Fu Xie very much? Let Fu Xie cook delicious food and conquer Madam, and Fu Xie will quickly win Madam's love."
Wang Wanzhi smiled and scolded: "You girl, you are so full of energy, do you think the mother is me? From the mother's point of view, she should be more concerned about Xie Fu's literary and martial arts skills, but instead of being so flattering and trying to please her, it makes her look down on her.
."
Yan Yu said thoughtfully: "Flattery is not enough."
Wang Wanzhi said solemnly: "Of course not, I am me, my mother is my mother, the identities are different."
Yan Yu chuckled: "Miss, do you like being flattered by Mr. Xie?"
Wang Wanzhi patted Yan Yu: "Girl, look for a beating!"
"Oh, miss, you were too coquettish just now. Your face is so cute now. Mr. Xie will definitely drool when he sees it."
"Girl Yan, you know how to exaggerate."
As she spoke, Wang Wanzhi gently stroked her temples and said softly: "I'm sure you won't be drooling. You should be very happy."
"You must be drooling, and your face is full of laughter. Mr. Xie is very perverted."
Wang Wanzhi was slightly surprised.
Yan Yu whispered in Wang Wanzhi's ear: "Miss, one time I noticed that Mr. Xie's body reacted in a different way when he saw you. At that time, I was frightened and stunned..."
Wang Wanzhi was secretly shocked when she heard this. It turned out that Yan Yu had discovered the abnormality of Xie Fu's pulse-seeking talisman a long time ago. She knew the reason, but it was difficult to tell Yan Yu directly about it, so she looked at Yan Yu gently with questioning.
When Wang Wanzhi looked at Yan Yu, her face suddenly turned red with embarrassment, and she muttered: "Miss, I have to pretend to be stupid, my daughter's family can't be too understanding. I also learned the immortal tune of plum blossoms with you.
A little trick."
The two were as close as sisters. Wang Wanzhi joked: "Are you opening one or all of them?"
Yan Yu hurriedly said: "Just an idea."
"Miss, you are trying to trick me!"
Yan Yu suddenly realized what he was talking about. After speaking, he stomped his feet in embarrassment and ran away.
…
Xiaoying lived in the house instead of Xiaoyun and took care of Xiefu's daily life.
Generally speaking, Xiaoying takes better care of Xiaoyun. She doesn't have to worry about anything and everything will be organized in order.
For some reason, Xie Fu felt an inexplicable estrangement in his heart. He was not as happy and relaxed as he was with Xiao Yun.
Xiaoying can't tease him, but Xiaoyun can.
Xiaoying can't tease him, Xiaoyun can.
Xiaoying was always impressed by his unconditional praise. Even if Xiaoyun was convinced in her heart, she would always be sarcastic.
However, Xiaoyun can't play the piano, but she can always understand his music.
Xiao Yun can't recite poetry, but she can always understand his poetic meaning.
I even felt that when Xiaoyun was studying, her voice sounded better than Xiaoying's, and her speech was as fluent as if she was telling him a story.
In contrast, Xie Fu actually felt that Xiaoyun was half a confidant.
There was already someone taking care of him, but he missed Xiaoyun who often caused him trouble.
I don’t know which woman said that men are cheap and need to be repaired.
From this point of view, it does make some sense.
That day, Fu Xie was cooking Jinling salted duck in the kitchen. He met Uncle Huang at the vegetable market and bought a duck.
While the soup was stewing, Xiaoying on the side took a sip and praised: "It smells so good!"
This sentence "It smells so good" made Xie Fu suddenly calm down. Wang Wanzhi also smelled the smell and praised it endlessly.
I don’t really want to eat it, I’m just addicted to it, and I can’t eat what I want.
I don’t know if Wanzhi has gained weight these days.
How could I be fat? My father had just passed away and I was heartbroken.
I'm so exhausted physically and mentally that I can't even eat anything.
I am already skinny, and if I continue to lose weight, I am afraid that I will lose weight.
Thinking of this, Mr. Xie became restless and worried.
He asked: "Xiaoying, where is your lady now?"
Xiaoying exclaimed: "Master, you miss Miss, but Miss is observing filial piety now, you can't see her now."
According to etiquette and law, during the period of observing filial piety, a woman must stay indoors and avoid seeing outsiders.
Although the young master is already an iron-clad uncle of the Wang family, the two of them have not been truly engaged and married, so they have no status.
If there is no status, then it is just an affair.
The Wang family is a prestigious family and attaches great importance to etiquette. In addition, this is the period when the young lady is observing filial piety, so it is even more taboo.
Xiaoying thought of this and advised: "It's only a hundred days. Just bear with it and it will pass. Now if we meet again, we will be criticized. Maybe Madam..."
Xie Fu asked: "Maybe Madam?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Maybe Madam will take the opportunity to attack you, punish you for not observing etiquette, and cancel this marriage. Then the gain will outweigh the loss."
Xie Fu smiled, it's not impossible, there's no point in trying to incriminate yourself, not to mention someone else caught you.
If Mrs. Wang continues to hinder her, the worst he can do is run away with Wanzhi.
Of course, Xie Fu is also a person who abides by etiquette, otherwise he would have rushed to meet Wan Zhi to see if her eyes were okay.
He said, "I'll bring her food. If we don't meet her, it's not considered disrespectful."
Xiaoying said: "Well... if we only deliver food without meeting, it would be in line with the rules."
"Then it's settled, Xiaoying, you prepare the food box now, and I'll deliver the food to her."
Xiaoying said: "Master, does the young lady still need someone to cook for her? Don't bother with it."
"You don't know, your young lady is very naughty. I'm afraid that she won't be used to the food cooked by others. Don't be nagging and hurry up and prepare it."
Xiaoying hurriedly walked out of the kitchen and suddenly turned around: "The young lady is currently keeping mourning for the master at the Wangjialing Palace in Purple Mountain. It is more than ten miles away and there is a mountain road. How can you get there like this, sir?"
Xie Fu has been to Wangjialing Palace. If he had not lost his sight, it would only take a while to perform the movement.
It was not difficult for him at this time, and he said with a smile: "When you go shopping for groceries, go slowly step by step. It is naturally more convenient and faster to hire a carriage."
Only then did Xiaoying realize that she was no longer used to normal thinking.
Here, Xie Fu puts the salted duck into the food box, while Xiaoying has hired a carriage and is waiting at the gate.
The area from Qinhuai Street to Pipa Street is the most prosperous place in Jinling with the richest nightlife.
The most indispensable thing is carriages and sedan chairs. No matter day or night, there are carriages and sedan chairs waiting on the banks of the Qinhuai River and at the entrances of major brothels.
Of course, with Fu Xie's current status in the Wang family, as long as he says hello, the Wang family will arrange special carriages and horses for him to come and go.
It's just such a small matter, there is no need to bother others. As long as you are willing to spend your money, others can handle everything for you.
For example, among the sedan bearers, there is also a profession called flower bearers, who are specialized in carrying brothel ladies to a certain mansion and bringing them back late at night.
As for what you did and didn’t do when you came to the house, it was just a matter of necessity, but there is an elegant way of saying it, called tea talk.
The groom was a middle-aged man. When he saw Xie Fu walking like an ordinary person, he didn't notice that he was blind. He asked respectfully: "Master, where are you going?"
"Wangjialing Palace."
As soon as this location was revealed, the groom looked at Xie Fu specially and asked a question: "Why did the young master go to Wangjialing Palace?"
Xie Fu picked up the food box in his hand and said with a smile: "Don't you see?"
"Drive your car and don't talk too much."
Xiaoying on the side scolded the coachman, and then helped Mr. Xie get into the carriage: "Master, be careful."
When the groom saw that although Xiaoying was just a maid, she had a beautiful appearance and her clothes were made of fine silk, he immediately knew that no ordinary family could afford to raise such a maid.
There was a horse-drawn carriage to travel, and the distance of more than ten miles was quickly reached. When they arrived at the dismounting pavilion, the coachman immediately reined in his horse and stopped.
Everyone in Jinling knows this rule.
The rest of the way could only be walked. Xie Fu got off the carriage and could not tell the direction.
Xiaoying held Xie Fu's hand: "This is the young master."
Only then did the groom realize that Xie Fu was blind.
This is a strange place. Xie Fu knows nothing about the surrounding environment, and he behaves like a blind man completely.
While holding on, Xiaoying reminded softly: "Sir, be careful, there is a stone in front of you."
Xie Fu smiled bitterly in his heart. It seemed that life in the future would be a little difficult and it would not be easy to adapt in a short period of time.
You can't stay in a mansion forever, in a familiar place.
How can you feel comfortable when you go out without someone else by your side?
Just after walking more than ten steps, two guards in black clothes came quickly from a distance and asked loudly: "The front is the Wangjialing Palace, who is coming?"
This is the solemn and private land of the Wang family, and no other people are allowed to approach it.
Jinling locals know this, and some out-of-towners who come to visit Purple Mountain often wander in by mistake.
Xiaoying immediately responded loudly: "I'm here to thank you, Mr. Fu."
