Soft and crispy waist

Chapter 152: Everything is done according to that chapter book

The garden is not very big, but it is not like a mansion with one, two or three entrances. It seems that there is no front and back yard, and there is not even a screen wall blocking the entrance.

The first thing that catches your eye is a large garden with a pond in the middle filled with lotus flowers and fish. At this moment, the lotus flowers are just buds that have not yet opened, the lotus leaves are dotted with dewdrops, and small fish of various colors are swimming happily below.

The corridors on both sides extend back to the hall.

Behind the hall is a vegetable garden where seasonal vegetables are grown. It is lush and green, and looks full of vitality. There are also fruit trees around it. One of the pomegranates has already produced many fruits, which are bright red and must be sweet.

On the other side is the kitchen, but it looks like it was renovated not long ago, and there is no trace of smoke or fire.

It is very similar to the small kitchen in Yinlin Courtyard, but more complete and has all the ingredients you need.

Further in, there is a large room.

There is a main house with two side rooms, and the main house is divided into inside and outside. The outside is not a classroom, but a study.

One wall of bookshelves was filled to the brim with books. There were open documents on the large black lacquered desk, and another pile on the side, which showed that Gu Yizi had worked here.

The inner room was also simple, with only a bed, a scented wood cabinet, a dressing table, and a clothes hanger. There was nothing else. It was a bit cold, but when Xia Zheng approached, she saw women's clothes hanging on the clothes hanger.

It was not the skirt she usually wore, but the pants she used to wear, with a skirt tied on the outside, which made it convenient for walking and working.

She hadn't worn such free-moving clothes since her rebirth, and she felt a little nostalgic when she saw them suddenly.

"Go try it on. I bought ready-made clothes and I don't know if they will fit me." Gu Yizi said.

Xia Zheng pointed at the dress in disbelief and asked, "Did the prince buy this for me?"

Gu Yizi nodded.

Although she wasn't sure what he meant, Xia Zheng really wanted to try it, so she walked into the house without refusing.

When I walked in, I found that there were sets of cosmetics on the dressing table, and the table was also new, which means that all the things related to women were newly added.

Originally, there were only a bed, a cabinet, and clothes hangers in this room.

Was it purchased for her?

Out of curiosity, Xia Zheng changed her clothes.

As soon as she put on this loose dress, Xia Zheng felt that she was much lighter, and even her steps became lighter.

But when he walked out from behind the clothes rack, Gu Yizi was no longer outside the door.

Confused and worried, he took two quick steps and just as he walked out the door, he heard Gu Yizi's smiling voice saying, "I'm here, what's the rush?"

Turning around, I saw Gu Yizi sitting behind the desk.

He also took off his court robes and changed into a moon-white long gown, sitting sideways on a large chair. He was not as serious and upright as usual, but looked a bit like a cynical young man, and even his smile was warmer than before.

This was the first time Xia Zheng had seen Gu Yizi like this.

So lovely.

"Does it look good?" Gu Yizi asked with a wicked smile.

Xia Zheng nodded instinctively, then came to her senses and quickly lowered her head and said, "I was distracted for a moment."

"You don't need to call yourself a concubine here."

Xia Zheng was confused, "What's it called then?"

"I."

I?

Can she call me that in front of Gu Yizi?

What does he mean?

When she's in a good mood, she can tolerate this, but when she's not in a good mood, wouldn't it be easy to be charged with disrespect?

Could this be the accusation against her?

But if Gu Yizi wanted to kill her, would it be necessary to go to such great lengths?

Before Xia Zheng could figure it out, her hand was pulled out again by Gu Yizi.

"I'm hungry, let's pick some vegetables and cook."

what?

Before Xia Zheng could react, Gu Yizi had already taken her out of the house and into the vegetable garden.

Gu Yizhi skillfully pulled out radishes and greens from the ground, took Xia Zheng to the kitchen and said, "I'll wash the vegetables and you cook. These two and a meat dish will be enough."

Without waiting for Xia Zheng's response, Gu Yizi had already scooped water from the water tank into the basin and started washing the vegetables in his hands. He was extremely efficient and did not have any of his former princely airs.

Xia Zheng had no choice but to light a fire and burn some firewood. After steaming the rice, she cut a piece of meat from the meat rack, sliced ​​it, and put it in a pan to stir-fry the excess oil. She used rice wine to remove the fishy smell, added ginger and garlic, and picked up a few green peppers from the basket, cut them up, stir-fried them, and added chopped green onions before serving.

At this time, the vegetables that Gu Yizi had washed had been drained. Xia Zheng cut the vegetables and radishes together, and stir-fried the garlic vegetables and shredded radishes with the meat oil that had been stir-fried earlier.

In less than three quarters of an hour, three dishes were placed on the table.

Just as she was about to get some rice, before she could stand up and walk back, Gu Yizi had already brought two bowls of rice and chopsticks and sat down, placing a bowl of rice and chopsticks in front of her.

Such a natural movement made Xia Zheng dazed for a moment. When she looked up and saw that the person in front of her was indeed Gu Yizi, she didn't know how to accept it all.

Gu Yizi brought her food, this...

"What are you standing there for? Eat."

Xia Zheng had no choice but to sit down anxiously, but every mouthful of food tasted like chewing wax, without any flavor at all.

She couldn't figure out what was wrong with Gu Yizi? Did he eat something wrong? Or was he possessed?

Her strong uneasiness caught Gu Yizi's eyes, making him lose his appetite.

It was obvious that everything was done according to the script.

The storybook says that after Jiao Niang learned about the prince's identity, she wanted to break up with him, saying that their statuses were not equal and she would never be his concubine. However, she couldn't give up her feelings, so she entered the mansion by mistake and became his concubine. However, in the mansion, she was bound by rules and regulations, and even though the prince protected her, her feelings gradually wore off. Despite her respect for him, the two of them gradually drifted apart.

For this reason, the prince took Jiao Niang to the south of the Yangtze River, found a small courtyard, and lived a life of daily necessities. Only with the two of them did Jiao Niang gradually open her heart.

At the end, the prince was called back again, and we have to wait for the next volume to find out what happens next. However, this volume is similar to his and Xia Zheng’s situation.

He then had Yuliu Garden renovated, adding vegetable fields, fruit trees, a kitchen stove, and a dressing table, all according to the storybook.

Why did she look even more frightened?

Both of them couldn't figure it out, and they ate the meal absent-mindedly until the sun set and it was getting dark. When they couldn't eat the meal anymore, Xia Zheng made up her mind, thinking that there was no one else here.

Even if I die, I want to die happily!

"How did I offend the prince?"

"Why are you afraid of me?"

The two spoke at the same time, and when their voices fell, their eyes met, both of them were surprised.

"Why do you think so?"

"Why do you think so, Prince?"

Again in unison.

The night grew darker, and without lights on, it was difficult to see each other's faces clearly even though they were only separated by a small table. Under such circumstances, it seemed that the words that were originally difficult to say were not so difficult anymore.

"You are so cautious, always observing my words and expressions. If I look a little off, you become terrified. If you're not afraid of me, what else could it be?"
