Chapter 196

Xia Yi quickly takes back her sight, and dares not have any sight contact with Xiao Linmu.

Besides her, there are several empty stools.

Xia Yi never thought that Xiao Linmu was not absent, but just went out.

Chu old lady laughs and says: "this need not introduce, summer meaning should know."

"Well." Xia Yi nodded, she did not look up, just looked down at the plate in front of her eyes.

Xia Yi thought that it would be over, but she didn't want Xiao Linmu to take the initiative.

"Get to know Xiao Linmu again."

Even the elders sitting opposite were a little surprised.

When did they see Xiao Linmu take the initiative to talk to others?

They all look at Xia Yi, but they don't want to. Xia Yi doesn't even lift her head. They just say two words lightly: "Xia Yi."

This is the answer to Xiao Linmu.

At that time, the old lady of Chu also helped Xiao Linmu hide his identity.

So just with two simple conversations between two people and the atmosphere between two people, old lady Chu saw everything.

In order to ease the awkward relationship between the two, Mrs. Chu coughed gently and said, "OK, since everyone has arrived, let's start eating."

Wang blinked in the direction of chusike. Chusike immediately understood. She said to old lady Chu, "grandma, Ke'er has a gift for you."

The servant girl with her came over holding a box. Chusike waved her hand, and the servant girl showed the contents of the box to the public.

It's a calligraphy and painting with a big "Shou" on it. If you look at it carefully, it turns out that the word Shou is composed of many characters, big and small.

Chu Sike said, "this picture of longevity was written by Ke'er himself. I wish my grandmother happiness as Donghai and longevity as Nanshan."

Old lady Chu nodded with satisfaction and said, "Ke'er's calligraphy has improved a lot."

Chusike gave old lady Chu a sweet smile and said, "as long as grandma likes it."

"Yes, yes." Old lady Chu said, turning her head to Qingdai, "Qingdai, put it away."

The rest of the people did not give gifts to old lady Chu, but chusike was the only one who gave gifts to old lady Chu at the dinner table.

Chusike was in the limelight.

A meal can be regarded as eating and friendly.

But Huo Jie, always thinking about the things in Xia Yi, glanced at the direction of the food box after two bites, so that she didn't eat much for this meal.

Huo Jie even asked Xia Yang, but the things in the food box were made by Xia Yi before dawn.

When Xia Yang got up, Xia Yi had already packed the food box, so even he didn't know what was in the box.

Huo Jie and so on, Xia Yi finally wants to take out the things in the food box.

"Madam Chu, I have also prepared a present for you."

Xia Yi carefully puts the food box on the table, and everyone's eyes are focused on the food box.

The contents of this food box are mysterious. Everyone is curious about what they are.

Huo Jie forgot to put down his chopsticks.

The food box is slowly lifted from the bottom, and the things inside slowly reveal the prototype.

"Hey, what did you think it was? It turned out it was just a peach..." Wang's face showed a slightly disgusted smile and muttered in a low voice.

Her volume control is just right, just enough for everyone to hear.

Chusike was also deeply relieved.

She specially delivers the longevity picture on the dining table, is wants to be in the limelight.

Who knows that Xia Yi, like her, chose to deliver it at the dinner table, but also covered it with a food box, which made everyone's appetite mysterious. Even she thought she was going to be robbed by Xia Yi.

Who knows that Xiayi's food box is just a common peach. Besides being a little bigger and a little more colorful than the ordinary peach, it doesn't look unique.

Even Huo Jie was a little disappointed.

She even can't figure out what the longevity peach is worth. She gets up before dawn and takes care of it carefully.

After all, it's not difficult to make such a peach in the kitchen of Chu mansion. It's still hot to eat after steaming.

But the old lady of Chu was laughing all the way, and said: "Xia Yi girl has a heart. She will eat peach for her birthday."

Chusike secretly clenched her fist under the table. Old lady Chu always looked serious when she faced her. When did she smile at her like this?

What is as like as two peas of peach shaped Mantou?

But chusike finally held back.

"Well, it seems that this peach is different." After Xia Yi lifted all the food boxes, huojie was the first to discover the difference.

"It's a little different. It doesn't seem to be made of flour." Old lady Chu also said.

Chusike, who had already looked away from the peach, moved her eyes back again.

"It's a cake made of flour with some eggs and other things." Xia Yi said with a smile.

"Cake?" The cakes Mrs. Chu had eaten before were all yellow, and the color was very single. It was the first time that Mrs. Chu saw such a bright color.

"Well, it's a cake." Xia Yi nodded and said, but there was not too much explanation. There must be no birthday cake in this era.

Therefore, she specially made the shape of Shoutao, one is for its auspicious meaning, the other is to be less eye-catching.

About this cake, Xia Yi thought for a long time whether to make it or not.

It was only yesterday that we finally decided to do it.

When Xia Yi was a child, what she envied most was that she had cake to eat on her birthday. Cake was a kind of good wish in her eyes.

She hopes to give this beauty to old lady Chu.

So Xia Yi got up in the middle of the night.

Due to the limited equipment in the kitchen, Xiayi can only make this cake in the oldest way.

Xia Yi spent more than half an hour on protein alone.

It was only when she felt that her arm was not an arm that she managed to get rid of it.

She also suffered a lot for the cake.

"How can I eat such a big one?" Old lady Chu asked, looking forward to it.

Xia Yi takes out a special bamboo knife from the food box and says, "I'll cut it for you."

As soon as Xia Yi was ready to cut, she felt that the front end of the handle was held.

"I'll cut it for you." Xiao Linmu's voice rang out.

Xia Yi didn't even dare to look up, then quickly released the bamboo knife, "you come."
