Chapter 204:

“Missy!”

Gu Xi looked up and swept her gloomy eyes at her: “Did you asked?”

Dong’er nodded her head and quickly rushed to Gu Xi’s side, then she said with a low voice: “I heard that Zhi’er, the girl Jin Shiwei mentioned, is the person who saved Meng Daren’s life last time. I heard she knows some medicine. She also came to check Meng Daren’s hand today, and then she personally cook them foods. That dish Jin Shiwei brought with him is cooked by her.”

“Where does she live? How old is she? How does she look like?”

Dong’er replied: “They said she is from Huangtou Village. She looked like 12 or 13 years old. She looks beautiful, but she can’t still be compared to you. So, what if she can cook or have medical skills. She’s still a nobody.”

Gu Xi’s tight face loosen a bit: “It turned out to be just a small mountain villager.”

Dong’er busily nodded her head: “Yes, she cooks a good spicy dish. But Missy, you also know that Meng Daren is from the capital. The dishes in the capital are spicy. It’s only normal for him to eat it.”

Gu Xi’s face became more and more relaxed. It’s true, Meng Nan will naturally not like a mountain village girl. And she’s only 12 or 13 years old. Her hair hasn’t grown that long. Meng Nan will not fall in love with a little girl. Never.

With this thought in mind, Gu Xi’s mood became good: “You go and meet that Zhi’er, ask her how to cook spicy foods. Learn at least two dishes from her. And then, you teach me how to do it.”

Dong’er doesn’t want to go, but she also doesn’t want to disobey her young lady. She can only go to the kitchen unwillingly.

“How come Dong’er came in here? What a surprise!” The cook seemed to be laughing at the unwilling Dong’er.

This slave girl and her master were extremely pretentious, always acting so virtuous. One was the daughter of a small country magistrate, while the other one was only a small slave. Both their ancestors were deeply rooted in the Qingyuan town, but what about outside? Can they act big? Just by seeing them the whole day is simply disgusting.

Dong’er took out her handkerchief to cover her mouth and nose. But, the disgust in her eyes was not cover up. How can a first rank maidservant like her go into this kind of dirty and disgusting place?

“Is Miss Bai still here?” Dong’er squinted her eyes to the call and spoke with an indifferent tone.

The cook pointed his finger to the figure that was standing in front of the stove: “That is Miss Bai, why are you looking for her?”

Dong’er didn’t bother to care about the cook, she went straight towards the stove. A fragrant scent entered her nose. The scent smells so good but also choking her. She doesn’t like eating spicy foods, nor smelling spices.

She doesn’t want to get close, she really doesn’t want to… …

“Miss Bai!” Dong’er, who kept covering her mouth and nose, finally arrived near the stove.

Bai Zhi was busy turning the beef she’s frying in the wok. When she turned her head, she saw Dong’er. Dong’er looks neat, her clothes looked very different from the kitchen stuff. She looked very similar to the maidservant that lead her to help the little boy last time.

Seeing Dong’er covering her mouth and nose, she said: “It’s smokey here, you go out first.”

Go out, she really wanted too! But, she has to stay.

Dong’er tried hard to speak: “Miss Bai, I am Dong’er, the maidservant serving Miss Gu. My young lady heard that you are a good cook, so she let me learn from you. Later on, when you’re not here, my young lady will be the one to cook for Meng Daren.”

That was a good idea. If someone can cook for Meng Nan and Jin Shiwei, she doesn’t need to tire herself to cook for them.
