Oh my god, I became the vicious stepmother of four villains

After the emperor left the court, he sent his eunuchs to visit Xia Yingying's family.

The eunuch just arrived at a cake shop and saw the long line in front of the door. He couldn't help but sigh: "Oh my God, this number of people is as large as the number of people selected by the emperor."

Looking at the sea of ​​heads, the eunuch walked straight to the front and inserted himself in.

But as soon as he entered, the people behind him started scolding the eunuch. The eunuchs were Eunuch Gui and Xiao Anzi. They had seen many dignitaries in the palace, and those dignitaries had to act according to his mood. They all greeted him with a smile. But now it was completely the opposite.

Xiao Anzi wanted to step forward to argue, but was scolded so hard that he couldn't say anything back.

"You old man, you are dressed quite luxuriously and look like a decent person, but why are you competing with the rest of us? Everyone is lining up, and you are the only one who is so impressive. And you are cutting in line? Do you want me to ask the police to take care of you?"

The eunuch wanted to quarrel with the man, but he saw an old lady opposite him wearing a coarse cloth shirt, with a pair of triangular eyes and a very loud voice, and her scolding was like a cannon.

Eunuch Gui was very versatile and eloquent in front of His Majesty, but in front of the rude old lady, he suddenly found that he had no ability to attack with words. He could only let the old lady talk and beat him up by surprise.

But Guigong Xiao Anzi had enjoyed such privileges for so long, and it was normal for him to fall from the top to the bottom. But Guigong was also afraid of getting into trouble.

Queuing was originally a trivial matter. He was pampered in the palace, so naturally he had to abide by the rule when he came outside.

Eunuch Gui and Xiao Anzi had to shrink back in the team and slowly move up the queue.

Fortunately, the line for buying cakes on the upper floor was not as long as the line on the lower floor, and it didn't take long to get there, but the display inside the store made him dumbfounded. There were originally many cakes today, but so far, there are only three or four kinds of cakes left in the store, and one of them seems to have a strange smell. Looking at the scene in front of him, Eunuch Gui couldn't help but frowned.

"Boss, what are these weird-smelling cakes of yours? Why are they so strange and smelly? Are they for human consumption?"

Eunuch Gui certainly wouldn't dare to bring the stinking cakes to His Majesty to avoid offending him, but he still couldn't help but wonder why Xia Yingying would make such a strange and smelly thing and put it in the cupboard for people to buy.

"Sir, this is durian, brought from the southwestern border. It smells bad but tastes fragrant, soft and sweet. It can be made into delicious pastries. If you are worried, I can give you a taste."

Ping An explained to Eunuch Gui.

Although Gui Gonggong was curious about this pastry, he didn't really want to try it. But at this moment, Ping An had already handed over the thin slices of durian pastry, and Gui Gonggong could only accept it, frowning and showing a look of disgust, and slowly put the piece of pastry in his mouth.

The taste slowly spreads in the mouth, and instantly there is a strong milky taste mixed with a fragrance, which slowly blooms between the taste buds. A unique experience.

The face that was originally frowned and looked like a 100-year-old man slowly relaxed the moment he ate the durian cake.

"This, this tastes really good." Eunuch Gui was shocked and couldn't help but praise.

"Sir, please have some. It smells strange, but it tastes good. This free cake is a request from our boss. We put it here because we are afraid that you will not be used to it."

Eunuch Gui asked Ping'an for a piece of cake to try, and finally he waved his hand and cleared out all the cakes in the upper shop. Although he came relatively early, he could only buy the cakes he had now.

"You're not going to make these cakes anymore after you sell them in your store?"

The eunuch couldn't help but feel curious; the bakery had clearly just opened not long ago and it was still early today, so how come the cakes were almost gone? This didn't make sense at all.

"Sir, only our boss knows how to make the pastries above. No one else can, and she can't make much by herself. Therefore, she can only sell them in fixed quantities every day. Once they are sold out, they will be gone. I'm really sorry. If you want to eat something else, I can leave some for you tomorrow." Ping An explained.

"Okay, let me see the list of pastries in your pastry shop." Eunuch Gui has served the emperor for many years and knows that the emperor likes delicious food. His mission today is to buy pastries. Since he can't buy them, he still needs to find out what pastries are available.

Ping'an put the list of pastries in the shop into Eunuch Gui's hand.

"Give me one portion of each pastry in your shop tomorrow." The eunuch glanced at the list of pastries and immediately decided what to eat tomorrow.

"Okay." Ping An responded with a standard smile.

Soon, the pastries were wrapped.

Eunuch Gui did not stay long, but Xiao Anzi on the lower floor was still queuing. Eunuch Gui said something to Xiao Anzi and hurried to

I went to a nearby teahouse and waited for Xiao Anzi.

Lu Ziren and Xia Yingying got up early to make pastries and went back to rest before dawn. Eunuch Gui was drinking tea in the teahouse and was paying attention to the situation outside.

Lu Ziren and Xia Yingying had a good rest and went to the pastry shop to help out. They had already gotten up.

Eunuch Gui saw Lu Ziren holding Xia Yingying's hand and walking towards the pastry shop from the top of the teahouse. When he saw Lu Ziren, his eyes lit up as if he had seen a shooting star. He shouted from the top of the teahouse and rushed down immediately: "General Lu, please stay."

When Lu Ziren heard a sharp and thin voice calling his name, he could not help but frowning. He raised his head and saw that it was the eunuch serving the emperor.

Lu Ziren was confused. Why did the emperor send the eunuch out?

The eunuch seemed to have guessed Lu Ziren's doubts and immediately stepped forward to explain, "General Lu, the emperor sent me to your pastry shop to buy some pastries to take back and try, but my apprentice has been waiting in line in your shop for a long time and still hasn't got a turn. I've also been waiting for a long time and just happened to see you. Can you give me some convenience so I can go back to the palace to report back?"

Lu Ziren was about to speak when Xia Yingying interrupted him. Regardless of whether Lu Ziren agreed or not, Xia Yingying was the first to disagree.

Everyone is queuing up. Why should the old eunuch, who is by the emperor's side, enjoy special privileges? This is totally unfair.

"No, everyone is queuing up. If you want to buy, you have to queue up too. You bought first and the people behind you could have bought it, but because you bought it first, the people behind you can't buy it. This is not fair to others. The so-called first come first served rule in buying and selling things, we must abide by this order." Xia Yingying refused flatly.

When Eunuch Gui saw Xia Yingying's righteous look, he didn't know what to say for a moment. He moved his mouth and looked at Lu Ziren innocently, hoping that Lu Ziren could give him an answer.

After all, in this dynasty, although women have a certain status, they still have to obey their husbands at home.
