The general's wife took her child on the road to exile

Chapter 138 The Fragrance of Food in Gu's Residence



Chapter 138 The Fragrance of Food in Gu's Residence

Ye Jiu picked up a piece of spicy and sour bamboo shoots with chopsticks and ate it with relish.

The dishes on the table all had her favorite flavors.

The sour bamboo shoots are spicy and fresh, the old duck soup is thick and appetizing, the roast chicken is spicy and fragrant, the green mixed spinach is refreshing and light, and a plate of spicy and sour potato shreds is appetizing and tasty.

Two big maids stood beside Ye Jiu and served her meals.

Ye Jiu was wearing a light purple silk gown. Her three thousand black hair was tied into a high crescent bun, with the half of her hair hanging down at the back and draped over her shoulders.

The little phoenix egg in Ye Jiu's stomach seemed to have some sense of something.

The baby is a little greedy.

"What did mom eat that smells so good? It smells sour and spicy, and my baby is drooling..."

The head maid Liuli asked her:

"Madam, the kitchen just got a fresh three-foot-long sea fish. Would you like to eat it or how should it be cooked?"

The general's wife had a thoughtful look on her face. When she heard Liuli's words, her beautiful eyes moved.

She said to Liuli gently:

"Well, we'll have boiled fish and fish slices in vinegar today... and roast a lamb for the kids, stewing some of it with lamb and radish and roasting some of it."

After she finished speaking, she drank another sip of the old duck soup. The spicy and sour duck soup was very refreshing.

Liuli bowed to the general's wife and walked out...

The pear blossoms in the yard are in full bloom, with snow-white petals crowded on the branches and many pear petals falling under the trees.

The pleasant scent of pear blossoms wafts around.

Liuli was wearing a green maid's skirt, with a faint smile on her pretty face. She said a few words to Tao Lu, the little maid in the yard.

The baby-faced maid Tao Lu turned and went to the kitchen.

The servant Lu Xiaoliu secretly glanced at the figure of the head maid Liuli

The graceful Liuli is the goddess in Lu Xiaoliu's heart. He took a broom and went under the tree to sweep the petals.

The servant Liu An stood there without saying a word, his cold and arrogant eyes staring at the useless Lu Xiaoliu. Liu An had a strange and complicated expression on his face.

Big kitchen...

The cook, Mrs. Sun, said to Wu Dong, the kitchen helper, "Go and kill the sheep. The master wants to eat grilled lamb skewers and stewed lamb. Please clean the sheep's stomach and intestines... Oh, let Zhao San go with you to kill the fish..."

She gave instructions to everyone with a smile on her face.

Chef Wu Dayong was seriously boiling the broth in front of the stove... He was concentrating on cooking a few side dishes that his wife liked.

Mrs. Li, who was helping to pick vegetables in the kitchen, was peeling yam while watching Wu Dayong cooking. She felt that Chef Wu's cooking movements were like practicing martial arts, and his every move was different from those of ordinary chefs.

Wu Dayong is one of the top ten masters in Zhu Lichao's secret guard group. He likes cooking, and the vegetables he cooks are unique and delicious.

Qin Junyu, the war king of Zhu Lichao, was recuperating in Gu Mansion. He sent Wu Dayong to the big kitchen to be a cook.

This is to prevent some officials of the Nanhuang Duwei Mansion from paying off servants and secretly tampering with the food.

When they first arrived in the Southern Wilderness, the officers were busy targeting the fat sheep Gu Yiheng, and they ended up losing several capable men. They returned home with various accidents, some disabled or blind.

Finally, the chief officer of the Southern Wilderness Commandery gave the order, forbidding anyone from showing off at the Gu Mansion.

The chief of the police knew that they had encountered a tough opponent...so the police, who were afraid of the consequences, gave up the idea.

The widow Liu, whom they liked to bully, left the Southern Wilderness.

The people who bullied her had their homes robbed and their legs broken and they lost their sight.

Shen Rulan (Widow Liu) and Xu Shiwen, the son of the Marquisate of Xihuang, left.

She left the Southern Wilds in such glory that the neighbors sighed. No one had expected that such a weak and poor old lady like Shen was actually the daughter of a noble family in the Western Wilds, and she had kept it a secret from everyone for so long.

Wang Chu, a guard from the Gu Mansion patrol team, sat in the room polishing his sword. Zhang Xunlin, who was sitting next to him, chatted with him about gossip in the Southern Wilderness.

"Hey, Chu Zi, do you know that there is an interesting thing in our Southern Wilds? Widow Liu's family came and took her away. The one who took her away was the prince from the Western Wilds. The maids in our mansion thought that Widow Liu's experience was like a storyteller's story."

Zhang Xunlin blinked his big eyes with curiosity, and he thought that the miserable plight of those officers was caused by the secret guards of the prince of the marquis's mansion.

Because the only ones who were hurt were those who bullied Shen Rulan.

Wang Chu frowned. He didn't remember what Widow Liu looked like. In his mind, there was only Wang Chu practicing martial arts. He didn't care much about these gossips.

The sword body was like a pool of autumn water, emitting a cold light in the refraction of sunlight. Wang Chu looked at the sword with a gentle look that was different from usual. His slender eyes flashed with tenderness and tranquility, which was different from his usual stern expression.

Guard Zhou Qing said: "We need some people to go back to Zhuli Dynasty recently. Who of you wants to go back and sign up? We don't have enough reserves. Go back to the palace to get some..."

Guard Zhang leaned lazily against the back of his chair; he didn't want to go back.

Wang Chu's heart moved, and he said:

"I'm going back..."

"Okay, I'll write down their names for you. Liu Yan also said he's going back, and Liang Liu and Sun Su are also going back..."

Zhou Qing muttered to himself as he wrote down the names.
