Transmigrated into Substitute Bride ‘Fu Lang’

Chapter 28: jelly

Gu Lang stared silently in the direction where Chen Xing left, and when there was no emotion on his gentle face, he looked a little scary.

Qiu Jiu, who was walking behind, saw it, swallowed her saliva quietly, and shouted cautiously, "Young Master."

The call of Qiu Jiu successfully moved Gu Lang's eyes from the direction Chen Xing left to Qiu Jiu. He looked at Qiu Jiu, and when he was about to bear it, he said in a low voice, "What is Chen Xing doing?"

Qiu Jiu raised her eyes and carefully looked at Gu Lang's expression. She felt that although he was not angry, he should not be in a good mood now. The matter came out, "Chen Xing said to make a dessert as an apology to Miss Zhao's family."

Gu Lang's brows furrowed, and his tone was a little displeased, "That lady from the Zhao family last time?"

Qiu Jiu nodded, confirming his conjecture.

Since those two people came to Chen Xing's booth to make a fuss last time, Gu Lang asked Qiu Jiu to check their details, and naturally knew their identities. They never bothered Chen Xing again, and he didn't pay too much attention to them.

At this time, when Qiu Jiu mentioned that Miss Zhao family again, Gu Lang's face instantly turned cold, but he soon returned to his normal appearance, and continued to ask Qiu Jiu: "What did they talk about today?"

Qiu Jiu immediately explained everything in detail.

Gu Lang's brows stretched slightly after hearing this. Although he was still a little dissatisfied with Chen Xing's neglect of him just now, it was still much better than before, and his tone even brought a bit of a hint. Interestingly, "The Zhao family is a bit interesting."

After saying this, Gu Lang looked at Qiu Jiu who was standing next to him, and said coldly, "Go and help him!"

"Yes." Seeing that she was let go, Qiu Jiu breathed a sigh of relief, turned and walked quickly towards the kitchen. When his son's face was cold, it was really scary.

Watching Qiu Jiu leave, Gu Lang who stayed behind looked down at the plain clothes on his body, silently thinking about whether to change to something more conspicuous next time, so as not to let Chen Xing ignore him exist.

Chen Xing, who didn't know Gu Lang's thoughts at all, was putting a pile of washed bones and pig skins into a large pot, and was eagerly calculating how long it would take to get Make what you want.

Qiu Jiu came in and saw this scene, and asked with some doubts: "Are we going to eat stew tonight?" , replied: "No, I just need to boil something first, and then use that thing to make dessert."

Chen Xing saw that the young lady was so greedy today, and when she was not too old, the gift she thought of was jelly. Although it was a little more troublesome to make in ancient times, it was still possible to make it, so he bought the raw materials and made it when he was ready to come back.

Qiu Jiu listened to Chen Xing's words and seemed to understand something, but it didn't prevent him from helping Chen Xing very diligently. Anyway, no matter what Chen Xing cooks, he will always have his share in the end. . While thinking about this, Qiu Jiu became more and more diligent.

To make jelly, you must first make gelatin, which is not very easy to boil, especially in ancient times when the conditions were more difficult. Therefore, Chen Xing spent several days in making jelly from raw materials to final shaping.

When Chen Xing finally finished it, Gu Lang and Qiu Jiu came to the kitchen together to watch his work.

Looking at the rows of food with different colors and translucent colors, Qiu Jiu just felt it was extraordinarily magical, and couldn't wait to taste what it tasted like. Gu Lang seemed to be much calmer, but his eyes never left the position of the thing.

Chen Xing, who was busy serving those jelly dishes, did not see their expressions at this time. He made three flavors of watermelon, grape and peach this time, so he every He took two of them and put them on a plate, and handed them to Gu Lang and Qiu Jiu respectively.

Gu Lang took the plate that Chen Xing handed over and met Chen Xing's shining eyes.

"Try it, if you like it."

Gu Lang picked up a peach flavored one and ate it. The moment he ate it, his eyes lit up, and then he looked at Chen Xing who was waiting for the answer, and nodded reservedly .

Chen Xing saw that he liked this thing, and felt that the hard work of the past few days was not in vain. Looking at the remaining jelly, he said with Gu Lang with great interest: "Look what flavor you like. Yes, I'll keep a little more for you, and I'll take out the rest to give away."

Seeing that Chen Xing put himself first in everything, Gu Lang watched him in the past few days because he was busy with things for others, and gradually dissipated. He looked at Chen Xing with a shallow smile, and said generously: "It doesn't matter, everything you make is delicious, I can eat whatever tastes I want. Since it's a gift, I can't let it be. Eat what's left of me."

Chen Xing thought for a while after hearing the words, and felt that what Gu Lang said made sense, "Then I will take five and leave the rest for you."

Chen Xing made about 60 this time, and took 5 of each flavor, and there are still a lot left.

After hearing what Chen Xing said, Gu Lang's smile became stronger and stronger, so that Chen Xing who was staring at him couldn't take his eyes away.

Beside Qiu Jiu, who was quietly eating jelly on her plate, watching the interaction between the two of them, she shook her head and muttered a few words in her heart. She felt that Chen Xing was really pitiful. He didn't even know that he was led by the nose of his son.

After determining the number of people to give away, Chen Xing went to find a food box and packed the jelly he needed.

Gu Lang, who was next to him, was helping him while asking unintentionally, "How do you want to give this thing to that person? Are you sending it directly to the house?"

Chen Xing shook his head and said uncertainly: "When she came last time, I guessed that she would get it by herself when she came, and I don't know if she would come on time. But I'm afraid this thing won't last long."

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing from the side, and knew that he probably didn't know the identity of the Miss Zhao family, otherwise he wouldn't be so casual. But since Chen Xing didn't know, he didn't need to remind him, Chen Xing just had to do what he felt happy about.

Therefore, Gu Lang echoed by the side: "According to your description, the Miss Zhao family must be very obsessed with food, she should come as agreed."

Hearing Gu Lang's consolation, Chen Xing nodded, did not continue to say anything, and happily went to prepare other ingredients.

After watching Chen Xing leave, Gu Lang looked at the jelly left for him, and nodded with satisfaction.

Chen Xing's business is very good every day, and he doesn't even need to do anything more. When the order comes, those customers will come continuously.

The same is true today. In less than half an hour of Chen Xing's opening, half of the items in his booth have been sold.

When Mr. Fu came, just in time for the last bowl of frozen brown sugar glutinous rice **** not sold, he asked for the last bowl while shouting luck.

Chen Xing took the money he gave and asked Qiu Jiu next to him to cook the dumplings for him, and asked the panting young master Fu curiously, "Are you still going to school so late now? "

In order to catch up with the last bowl of glutinous rice balls, Mr. Fu, who was sweating profusely, began to complain: "Yes, the county magistrate said that he would come to our school for inspection, but there is still no news. However, the teacher in our school was worried that if the county magistrate suddenly came that day, we would embarrass him, and he would not dare to relax. What can we do? Don't be too hard."

Speaking of this, Master Fu let out a long sigh, his round face full of melancholy about this matter.

Chen Xing looked at him with a worried look, very much like the students who were tired of studying in his previous life, and comforted him with understanding: "Don't worry, the county magistrate should not embarrass you. When the county magistrate finishes the inspection, you can relax."

Fu Gongzi took the dumplings that Qiu Jiu handed over, and after taking a bite, his brows widened again. Hearing Chen Xing's words, his tone became a little more pleasant, and he agreed: "The other people in our school said the same thing, everyone is encouraging each other."

Chen Xing listened to him and thought that their classmates were quite interesting. Just when Chen Xing wanted to say something to him, a female voice suddenly interjected.

"Little Boss."

Chen Xing looked around and saw a girl who looked like a maid. He hadn't seen her before, and asked with some doubts, "Who are you?"

The maid gave him a slight smile, and her not-so-good face was a little more colorful because of this smile, "Little boss, my lady and little boss, you have done it. It was agreed that I would come and get the food that the little boss said for a few days. Miss can't go out today, so she ordered me to come and get the food. If the little boss is convenient, give it to me. "

This maid speaks without leakage. After listening to her words, Chen Xing suddenly remembered that the style of clothes this maid was wearing was the same as that of the maid who followed behind that lady that day. Almost, it is expected that it should be a servant of the government.

Thinking of this, Chen Xing gave her a smile. He said softly: "Okay, I'll give you the things, and you can take them back to your lady."

After all, Chen Xing took out the prepared food box and handed it to the little girl.

The little maid took the not-so-exquisite food box, but politely bowed to Gu Lang, and then left with the food box.

Chen Xing felt that the girl who came here this time was much more polite than the one who followed her lady last time.

Just as Chen Xing was about to receive the next guest, he turned his head and saw Fu Gongzi standing beside him, staring at him.

Fu Gongzi was asked by him, and his face immediately turned red, looking at Chen Xing with an embarrassed expression, and his eyes were a little more wanting to say goodbye.

"I don't know if it's appropriate to say something now."

Chen Xing looked at him and suddenly had a bad premonition. He always felt that he looked like someone who wanted to confess.

Qiu Jiu, who was next to him, also noticed Fu Gongzi's strangeness, and his eyes began to look bad.

Who knows, Fu Gongzi struggled for a while, and finally said as if he made up his mind: "Little boss, you see we are so familiar."

"That's right, can you give me a portion of the food you gave to that girl just now?"

Chen Xing:…

Chen Xing looked at Fu Gongzi, who looked very embarrassed after saying this, and gradually let go of his heart, and his expression gradually changed to helplessness, he did not expect what he proposed The request turned out to be this.

After Mr. Fu said this request, the expression on his face looked more and more embarrassed. Seeing that Chen Xing didn't say anything, he hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I will definitely not let you work in vain. I will pay how much she bought it."

Chen Xing was a little dumbfounded when he heard Mr. Fu's straightforward words. That jelly was because he thanked Miss Zhao, so he did it specially, otherwise it would take so much effort to do it once , he can't take a few bites, and he won't do it.

Chen Xing just wanted to tell him that he did it because he wanted to thank others. But then he thought of the joy that flashed in Gu Lang's eyes when he ate the food, presumably he also liked the taste of the food.

In an instant, Chen Xing thought that when he could make it for Gu Lang in a few days, he would make some for Mr. Fu. No matter what, Mr. Fu is considered to be his old customer.

Thinking of this, Chen Xing's mood instantly became clear, he looked at Fu Gongzi and said: "But, it just takes more time for this thing, and I don't know the price now. How to decide."

"It doesn't matter, no matter how much money or how long it takes, I can afford to wait." Fu Gongzi said very boldly, he just saw it when Chen Xing opened it to the maid. , that translucent thing looks very rare at first glance, spending more time and money is nothing, he is not short of it anyway.

Fu Gongzi and Chen Xing quickly discussed when to pick up the jelly, and then he happily took his second bowl of Liangpi to find a place to eat.

?"

Chen Xing was cleaning up the dirty stove, and said without raising his head: "Of course not for him! Gu Lang likes to eat, I plan to make new flavors for Gu Lang in a few days. When it comes to jelly, just make a few for him."

Qiu Jiu looked at Chen Xing with a natural look on his face. At this time, he didn't know whether to be pleased with his care for his son, or to sympathize with his perfunctory treatment of Fu Gongzi.

Zhao House.

A maid carrying a food box that doesn't match the magnificent interior, walked slowly into the lady's boudoir, and looked at the lady who had finished dressing up. She bowed first, then said softly. Said: "Miss, the slave has brought back what you asked for."

Hearing her words, Zhao Jing suddenly stood up from her chair, hurriedly walked in front of her, and said eagerly, "Give me a taste."

The maid looked at the eagerness of the young lady, gently placed the food box in her hand on the table, and slowly opened the lid.

Zhao Jing looked at the neatly placed translucent thing, her face was full of surprise, she pointed at the thing and asked suspiciously: "What is this?"

, this purple one is grape-flavored, this deep red one is watermelon-flavored."

Zhao Jing listened to the introduction of the maid, and felt that it was extraordinarily magical. After listening to her introduction, she couldn't wait to try it. After taking the first bite, her eyes lit up When he got up, he exuded a pleasant atmosphere.

Then Zhao Jing ate nine pieces in one go, until the maid next to her mother came to invite her, and she was able to hold on to her actions.

"Miss, Madam, please come over, the magistrate's wife will be here soon."

Listening to the voice of the maid, and looking at the six jellies left in the box, Zhao Jing was stunned. She felt that she had just tasted a taste, why is there no more?

But Zhao Jing couldn't bear to think too much, the urging from outside continued, she gritted her teeth, struggled for a moment, and said directly: "Put this on a plate for me, and I will follow it later. I'll take it to my mother with me."

"Yes."

Zhao Jing went to the meeting place with a plate behind her.

Chen Xing agreed to Fu Gongzi to make jelly but did not start in a hurry, but estimated how long it would take for the jelly at Gu Lang to finish eating, and then began to slowly calculate when to go Buy bones and pig skins to boil glue.

After such a calculation, Chen Xing found that he could relax for two more days, so he relaxed even more.

When the stall was closed, Chen Xing looked at Qiu Jiu who was following him, and asked happily, "Qiu Jiu, does your son have other favorite fruits? I'm going to make another one in a few days. batch of jelly..."

Qiu Jiu listened to Chen Xing's expression beside him, looked at the excited expression on his face, was silent for a while, thought for a long time, and finally shook his head, a little confused: "Young Master's preferences don't show much, you can ask him yourself."

Chen Xing was stunned when he heard the words, and felt that his words were a bit strange, what was meant by not being shown very much.

Seeing that the confusion on Chen Xing's face was too obvious, Qiu Jiu rarely explained, "Because of an accident at home, the son had an unpleasant time, and during that time, the son raised It has become a habit of not expressing my likes and dislikes easily, especially for things, and even more so for food.”

Gu Lang's pale and handsome face suddenly appeared in front of him, remembering the rumors he heard about the Gu family in the city, and suddenly he felt a little more affection for him.

Perhaps the distressed expression on Chen Xing's face was too obvious, Qiu Jiu next to him couldn't help but say one more sentence, "You are different to the son, you can ask him what he likes , he will tell you."

At least before Chen Xing, Qiu Jiu had never seen anyone who could mobilize Gu Lang's emotions, and it was even more impossible to see a sensible son who would show the same childish behavior in front of Chen Xing.

Hearing Qiu Jiu's words, Chen Xing was shocked, then looked at Qiu Jiu next to him, and thanked him cautiously, "Thank you, I understand."

When Qiu Jiu heard Chen Xing's words, he showed a bright smile to him, showing his mouth full of white teeth, and said happily: "You're welcome, the son is happy, we have the talent to be servants. Follow along."

Chen Xing listened to his words, and felt more and more pity for Gu Lang, thinking that he should be better to Gu Lang in the future, after all, Gu Lang is such a good person Man, if he wasn't nicer to Gu Lang, it would be really inappropriate.

With this idea in mind, Chen Xing walked on the road to meeting Gu Fu with a lot of thought.

Just after Chen Xing and Qiu Jiu left the booth, a group of people suddenly jumped out from the corner of the street. After watching for a while, they gathered together and muttered for a long time before walking towards the stall that Chen Xing had already packed under the leadership of the team leader.

When Chen Xing and the others returned to Gu Mansion, it was still early, so Chen Xing took a shower as usual before going to the kitchen to prepare lunch.

Chen Xing stood in the kitchen, looking at the fresh vegetables on the stove, just about to start preparing, but in his mind he remembered what Qiu Jiu said when he came back. He hesitated for a moment, then put down the things in his hand, walked to the kitchen and walked towards Gu Lang's study.

When I got to the study, I saw Gu Lang sitting upright in front of the desk from the window, looking at the book in his hand. He stared at Gu Lang's pale face for a long time, but never said a word.

Until the Gu Lang inside noticed his eyesight, looked up in his direction, smiled when he saw him, then put down the book in his hand and beckoned to him He waved his hand and said warmly, "Why don't you stand outside and not come in?"

Chen Xing looked at Gu Lang who was smiling at him, hesitantly walked in, came to him, hesitantly asked: "I just want to ask, what do you want at noon today? What to eat?"

Gu Lang felt a little strange when he heard his question. When they were not familiar with them at first, Chen Xing asked him what he would not eat. I've asked this question, and I don't know why it's suddenly asked again.

Gu Lang was confused, so he asked.

Chen Xing pursed her lips, looked at Gu Lang, who was looking at him intently, hesitated for a while, but still said what Qiu Jiu said to herself, and finally asked a little nervously Said: "Do you not like some of the things I do? Just out of politeness, you told me that you liked them all."

As soon as Chen Xing's voice fell, he saw Gu Lang staring straight at him without speaking, and the room was terribly quiet.

After a while, Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing and smiled softly, with a bit of doting in his tone, "You."
