Whether it's Xiao Linmu or Nan Qianyue, they always keep a low profile when they go out on weekdays. Even if they bring a servant, they change into ordinary clothes.
Huo Jie is used to being alone, so it's even more impossible to take people with him.
Besides, it's not a place to go. It's just a housewarming dinner.
But, apart from a few of them, who knows she lives here?
Xia Yi's steps pause for a moment, remembering that there are still a few small ones at home, and unconsciously quickens her pace.
But before he entered the courtyard, he was blocked by the officers and soldiers at the gate of the courtyard.
"Stop!"
Looking at the two knives in front of him, Xia Yisheng stops.
She raised her eyes and looked into the courtyard, but the gap between the doors was too small to see anything.
Xia Yi asks a way: "several official big brothers, where are you working? What are you doing here? "
The officers and soldiers said impatiently: "go, you can't see everything lively and inquire about everything! If you don't want to make trouble, just go away! "
With that, he sent the knife forward a few points.
Xia Yi immediately stepped back two steps.
The attitude of these officers and men is extremely horizontal, and Xia Yi is worried about the safety of several small people in the yard.
"What are you watching? This is my home. Can't I go back? Where are you from? Call your master, I'll see who is so powerful that I don't let people go home even if I break into private houses? "
The most effective way to deal with this kind of horizontal is to be more horizontal than him. No matter who the other party is, he should be awed by his momentum first.
Sure enough, Xia Yi's words, a few officers and soldiers some silly eyes, you look at me, I look at you, do not know how to react.
They were ordered to pass the edict with their father-in-law. All they knew was that a powerful folk cook lived in the courtyard and was authorized by the emperor to participate in the meal competition.
How could they have thought that this powerful folk cook was a young girl who looked like she was only 17 or 18 years old?
Seeing several officers and soldiers looking at each other, Xia Yi knew that the effect had been achieved, so he said to them, "can you let me in now?"
The brain turns a little faster, the officer and soldier says: "you wait here first, I go to announce first."
"Well." Xia Yi nodded.
These people are looking for her, but they don't know her?
Xia Yi carefully combs the events that have happened these days, and is even more confused. She can't figure out the specific origin of these people.
The soldiers came to block the water and cover the land. With the identity of Shu Zhongyuan and Huo Sheng, nothing should happen in the town.
If something really happened, she would delay the time first and calculate the time. The people she invited to the housewarming banquet would soon arrive.
No matter what, the first thing is to ensure the safety of a few children
Just thinking about this, the person who just went to tip off came back.
I carefully checked the dishes bought by Xiayi before putting them in.
There are many officers and soldiers in the hospital. Xia Yi is led all the way to the study by the officers and soldiers.
As soon as you enter the door, Xia Yi recognizes who the person is.
Xia Yi had met in Chu's mansion, and he was the father-in-law who went to Chu's mansion to pass the edict.
At the moment, this father-in-law is playing with a few small ones.
See Xia Yi come in, also smile ha ha, "you are Xia Yi girl."
"Well." Summer meaning nods, toward father-in-law blessing body, "see father-in-law."
Seeing his father-in-law, Xia Yi's heart was released. She could roughly guess his intention.
However, she did not expect that her father-in-law would come to deliver a decree as soon as today's rumor started, which would be too quick to give people room for maneuver.
It's a certainty that she will enter the palace to participate in the meal competition
My father-in-law was very friendly. "Miss Xia Yi is very familiar. Have I met you anywhere?"
Xia Yi replied, "my father-in-law went to Chu's mansion a few days ago and I happened to be there."
"So it is. No wonder it's fate." Xuanzhi father-in-law stared at Xia Yi's face for a long time before he said with a smile.
Xia Yi said with a smile, "yes, my father-in-law is here to make a declaration?"
Xuanzhi father-in-law patted his head and said, "Oh, yes, I'm old, but I forgot my business."
Then he put the nine links back on the table.
Xia Yi way: "let a few small play here, we go out to say good?"
Xuanzhi's father-in-law was very good. He agreed, "good, good."
As Xia Yi had expected, xuanzhi did come for the meal competition. His intention was to let Xia Yi take part in the meal competition. The day of the competition was very near, just three days later.
Xia Yi received the imperial edict, and didn't forget to put a small piece of broken silver in the hand of xuanzhi's father-in-law. "Please come here. I don't know that my father-in-law is coming. I didn't prepare drinks in advance. I hope my father-in-law will forgive me."
Xuanzhi father-in-law waved his hand and said, "no harm, no harm."
Xia Yi said: "this time is tight. I'll bring you some cakes when I enter the palace in a few days."
"I've heard that the girl's cooking skills are excellent, so I'm blessed." Xuanzhi's father-in-law laughed twice, and the Bento really came down.
When he sent his father-in-law out, he happened to meet Huo Jie, who came here to eat.
"Sister Xia Yi, it's settled to enter the palace?"
"Well. Isn't it out there already? " Xia Yi remembers that when she just went to buy the ingredients of hot pot, she was asked a few questions by people she knew.
Huo Jie said: "it's not true that it's spread outside, but it's not the same that Duke Sheng specially comes to deliver the edict. He's the old man beside the emperor. Almost everything the emperor has is announced by Duke Sheng. I didn't expect that the emperor paid so much attention this time, and he sent Duke Sheng to come here. "
"I see." Xia Yidao.
Huo Jie put one hand on Xia Yi's arm and held a big wooden box all the time. As he talked, the wooden box slipped down a little.
Huojie then released the hand that hooked Xia Yi's arm and held the wooden box in his arms. "Sister Xia Yi, this is a housewarming gift for you."
The box is about ten centimeters square, longer than an arm. It looks like a big object.
Xia Yi took it and felt heavy in her hand.
"What is it? So big? "
Huo Jie's face was full of pride. He blinked and said, "guess..."
Xia Yi shakes the box and doesn't hear any noise. It's so big and heavy. Xia Yi really can't guess what it is.
Opening the box, Xia Yi was stunned. Inside the box was a bright silver spoon with big red flowers tied on it, as if it was clearly written "I am a gift".
Take the weight, it should be really silver
"I'm not afraid to cook with this silver spoon, am I? Don't you think it's too extravagant? "
Xia Yi took it in her hand, and the silver spoon felt really good.
"Of course." Huo Jie didn't even think about it, so he said directly, "my sister's cooking is worthy of such a good guy."
“……”
Xia Yi looks at the spoon in her hands silently, inexplicably feeling that it's hot.
However, Huo Jie murmured with regret: "well, if I didn't have enough pocket money, it would be better to send my sister..."
Xia Yi looks up and just wants to speak, he hears Huo Jie continue to say: "but brother Mu is different. He has more money than me. He can definitely send his sister better. Maybe it's... Golden spoon?"
"Farewell..." Xia Yi is helpless. She is really afraid of them. She doesn't know how to use the spoon. If Xiao Linmu really gives a golden spoon, she's not sure if she can't control herself to melt it
