Chen Xing looked at Zhao Jing with a disturbed expression, and thought of the arrogant butler who came a few days ago, he was already a little concerned, but he still smiled calmly and said: "Miss, it's okay to say."

Seeing that Chen Xing didn't show any repulsion on his face, Zhao Jing breathed a sigh of relief, and then slowly opened her mouth, "Little Boss, do you still remember the dessert you gave me last time?"

Chen Xing nodded, of course he remembered, but what Zhao Jing meant by saying this now made him a little confused.

Zhao Jing's face became more and more guilty, she didn't even dare to look into Chen Xing's eyes, and said softly: "When you gave me that dessert last time, there happened to be guests at my house. So, I will The dessert was served to the guest, who liked it very much."

Chen Xing vaguely guessed the following story, and as expected, Zhao Jing went on to say: "I didn't expect my mother to see that she likes her, so I wanted to send her some more to get closer, and asked someone to threaten you on her own initiative."

At this time, Chen Xing suddenly figured out why a butler of a big mansion would go to war for dessert.It's just that he still doesn't quite understand it. It's just a dessert. Is it as important as you say?

Chen Xing thought about this, and asked directly, and then saw Zhao Jing in front of him who seemed to have thought of something, and a halo appeared on his originally embarrassed face, looking extraordinarily excited,

"Of course, you don't know, little boss. I have grown up so much, and I have never eaten anything better than that dessert. Since I finished eating it, I have been obsessed with it. If I am not afraid to trouble you, I would actually like to buy some more .”

Speaking of this, Zhao Jing's face seemed to turn a little red, and she looked extremely embarrassed.

Chen Xing was amused by her innocence, he thought Zhao Jing was a good girl, otherwise he would not have stepped forward to help her block that slap that day.

Chen Xing thought about it and looked at the shy girl in front of him, and asked bluntly, "So, you came this time because you want me to make that dessert for you?"

Zhao Jing didn't expect Chen Xing to guess what she meant all at once, she looked at Chen Xing with some embarrassment, and nodded shyly, "Yes, that guest is extremely important to our family, and my mother also tried her best to make friends with her." Okay, so I have to trouble you."

Chen Xing raised his eyes and looked at Zhao Jing, whose face had completely turned red after saying these words, looking extremely ashamed, wishing to find a crack in the ground to sneak in, and vaguely anxious Zhao Jing, gradually had some thoughts in his heart .

Zhao Jing looked at Chen Xing who did not respond after hearing what she said, feeling a little anxious.She wasn't afraid of her mother's scolding, it was just a few lectures, but she was afraid that if she couldn't ask for something, her mother would ask the housekeeper to ask for it again, which would not be so easy to do.Although she didn't care about the family affairs, she also heard that the people below talked about the second housekeeper's way of doing things.

Fortunately, when Zhao Jing started to feel a little impatient and hesitated whether to tell Chen Xing the whole story, Chen Xing said directly, "Since it is Miss' request, then I will comply."

Zhao Jing's eyes lit up, and she looked at Chen Xing in disbelief, "Really?"

Chen Xing looked at her and curled the corners of her lips, and said softly, "Of course I won't deceive Miss."

Zhao Jing's anxiety just now was swept away, and she looked at Chen Xing's eyes shining, and said happily, "That's great."

Seeing Zhao Jing's happy appearance, Chen Xing became more and more sure of what he thought in his heart, but he felt that those left and right were none of his business, so he didn't continue to ask, but continued: "Miss, what taste do you need this time?" Yes, how much more do you need?"

Hearing Chen Xing's question, Zhao Jing's eyes gradually showed some confusion, she blinked her eyes, and asked with some uncertainty: "Taste?"

"Yes!" Chen Xing laughed heartily, revealing a little white teeth, "That thing has a taste, so naturally there are flavors to choose from, and since it's a gift, wouldn't custom-made flavors be better? ? There are a lot of seasonal fruits right now, and you can have whatever you want."

Zhao Jing struggled for a while, but did not find a reason.

Chen Xing didn't want to be so troublesome at first, but he had a good impression of Miss Zhao, so he was naturally willing to think more about her.Looking at her appearance at this time, he said directly: "If Miss has not made up her mind now, why don't you go back and find out what the guest likes, and it won't be too late to tell me tomorrow."

Zhao Jing relaxed her frown, looked at Chen Xing with a big smile, and said sincerely, "Thank you."

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly called the maid to go back, but before going back, he still didn't forget to buy a bowl of cold noodles from Chen Xing's booth that could be taken away in a bag.

When Zhao Jing left, Qiu Jiu, who had been listening to them, came over and whispered in Chen Xing's ear, "Why did you promise her?"

Facing Qiu Jiu who had been helping him all the time, Chen Xing became more patient, and he explained softly: "Doesn't Gu Lang like that jelly very much? I was going to make it for him, and the others were just incidental, so there is no No big deal."

Qiu Jiu looked at Chen Xing with complicated eyes, a little moved by how kind he was to his young master, and then he heard the person in front of him continue with sparkling eyes:

"Besides, it suddenly occurred to me that I could also sell jelly! Ordinary people can't afford it, but rich people can! When I have enough money, I can make Gu Lang's life better gone."

Looking at Chen Xing, who was full of fighting spirit, Qiu Jiu moved his lips, wanting to tell him that he really didn't need to work so hard, there was really no need, his son was actually not short of money, but in the end he still kept silent He didn't say anything.

Zhao Jing's speed was very fast. Before Chen Xing closed the stall, she hurried over in a sedan chair. She not only told Chen Xing the flavors she wanted, but also paid her the full amount in advance.

Seeing that there was a lot of money, Chen Xing wanted to refuse, but was stopped by Zhao Jing's words.

"Little boss, I know you are kind, but this time I didn't eat the food, it was a gift from my family. Naturally, there is no reason for you to work for nothing. Moreover, this is my mother's private house."

Chen Xing remembered that when Zhao Jing said this, a shy look appeared on her face, and he also took the money.

After closing the stall, Chen Xing didn't go back to the mansion immediately, but took Qiu Jiu to the vegetable market to buy bones and pig skins, and then went to the carpenter's shop, explained the purpose of coming to the old carpenter who was already somewhat familiar, and asked him to help make a batch Mold, after paying the deposit, I went back.

When Chen Xing returned to Gu's mansion, he opened the door but did not see Gu Lang who used to water the flowers there. He was puzzled and a little disappointed at the same time.He originally wanted to have a few words with Gu Lang and tell him what happened today.

"What's the matter?" Qiu Jiu, who was following behind, brought in the wheelbarrow, and asked strangely when he saw Chen Xing standing motionless by the door.

Qiu Jiu's words woke him up immediately. Chen Xing shook his head, indicating that he was fine, and then he and Qiu Jiu transported the things to the kitchen, where they put bones, pig skin and other things into the big pot to stew. At the same time, start preparing for today's lunch.

However, not long after Chen Xing was busy, Gu Lang walked in slowly.

Chen Xing seemed to have sensed it. The moment Gu Lang came in, he looked over subconsciously. When he saw that the person who came in was Gu Lang, when he didn't even notice it, he immediately showed a bright smile. ,"How did you come?"

Gu Lang walked slowly to Chen Xing's side, and said softly: "There is nothing left and right, let me see if there is anything you need help with here."

Chen Xing let go of the minced garlic in his hand, and quickly said: "No, no, I can do it with Qiu Jiu's help, and the two of us will finish our work soon. You are not in good health, so don't keep going to places with lots of fireworks .”

When Chen Xing said this, Gu Lang subconsciously looked in Qiu Jiu's direction, and saw that he was sitting on a ponytail, carefully peeling the green onions in his hands, and matched with the set of ashes on his body. The clothes looked no different from those of ordinary street people, not at all like the capable and streamlined guards before.

Seeing this, Gu Lang stopped in the past, thinking seriously whether he would become like that too.

Chen Xing didn't know what was going on in Gu Lang's mind, thinking that he had heard his own persuasion, and hurriedly said: "Okay, we are really busy, we can eat in a while."

After thinking about it, he seemed to feel that what he said just now was too perfunctory, and Chen Xing pointed to a dish of cold braised pork not far away as if coaxing a child, and said to Gu Lang: "How about you put the meat on the table first?" Take that over, shall we?"

Gu Lang looked at the bowl of braised pork with all the flavors and flavors, nodded, and took it out without changing his expression.

Qiu Jiu looked at his young master who obediently left with the dishes, and then looked at Chen Xing, who had been in a good mood since his young master came, shaking the goose bumps on his body for some reason.

It takes several days to boil the jelly. During these few days, Chen Xing not only bought all the fruits needed to make the jelly this time, but also took back the custom-made mold from the old carpenter.

Gu Lang, who was watching the labor of Chen Xing and Qiu Jiu, looked at the fruit spread in the yard, and his expression was a little ugly at this time, because he already knew that some of these things were going to be given away, even if it was Knowing that a large part of it is reserved for himself, he also feels that he can't be happy, since he can obviously keep it all for him.

Gu Lang was unhappy, but he didn't say anything, just sat there sullenly, his eyes following Chen Xing who was working.

Qiu Jiu occasionally turned his head to see his young master staring at them blankly, and he couldn't help shivering.He looked at the fruit in his hand, and then at his young master's expression, and he suspected that what he made was not jelly, but something fatal, otherwise why his young master would have that expression.Chen Xing looked at the prepared fruit, thinking that he could make jelly after squeezing out the juice, so he couldn't help being a little happy.Then, as if thinking of something, he turned his head to look at Gu Lang who was sitting next to him, and asked with a smile, "Would you like a glass of juice later? What flavor do you want? I'll make you a glass."

"A glass of grape flavor."

After hearing this, Chen Xing nodded and went back to work. At the same time, he also remembered what Gu Lang wanted, thinking that he would add more sugar and honey to Gu Lang's grape juice later.

Qiu Jiu, who was next to him, watched the interaction between the two of them. He could swear that he saw the gentle expression on his son's face when Chen Xing turned his head to look at his son.

Finally, after Chen Xing finished squeezing the juice, he made a glass of watermelon juice for himself and Qiu Jiu, and a glass of prepared grape juice for Gu Lang.All three of them put ice in their glasses, but Gu Lang put a little less ice in their glasses because he was worried about his health.

When Gu Lang got his own cup of ordinary juice, his face was slightly unhappy, but Chen Xing quickly noticed it.

Chen Xing told Gu Lang carefully about his concerns and the impact of ice on him many times, then watched Gu Lang expressionlessly took a sip, and accepted his proposal.

Chen Xing turned his head to look at him. When he was not very familiar with Gu Lang at first, he thought he was a very cold scholar.After I got to know him gradually, I realized that sometimes he would play his temper silently like a child!

Perhaps it was because Chen Xing's gaze was too focused, Gu Lang, who was drinking grape juice, turned his head to look at it, and asked a little puzzled, "What's wrong?"

Chen Xing shook his head, smiling like a cat stealing fish, "It's okay, just take a look."

Gu Lang felt that Chen Xing had something to hide from him, but seeing the warm light in his eyes, he didn't continue to ask.

In the afternoon when the sun was not too hot, the three of them sat under the eaves and enjoyed the rare peace. Looking at the mottled sky, Chen Xing suddenly felt that such a day was not bad.

That afternoon, Chen Xing and Qiu Jiu, who had rested, started to make jelly. Gu Lang occasionally helped out by the side, and the scene was very harmonious for a while.

After the jelly was unmoulded and taken out, Qiu Jiu looked at the colorful and various shapes of jelly, and couldn't help but exclaimed, "Chen Xing, these are so pretty!"

Compared to Qiu Jiu's astonishment, Chen Xing was not very satisfied. He felt that if there was a better method of extracting materials and using a finer mold, the effect might be better.But soon he also felt that his requirements were too high, after all, it was already very good to be able to do it here.

Chen Xing comforted himself, then looked at Gu Lang next to him, and said happily: "This is the jelly we made, you can see which ones you like, pick the ones you like first and keep them, and I'll see the rest The situation packs them up."

Hearing Chen Xing's words, Gu Lang's unhappiness secretly arose in the past few days, but it disappeared in an instant. He turned his head to look at Chen Xing who was staring at him expectantly, and said with a light smile, "Okay."

After Gu Lang selected the ones he liked, and Chen Xing left the family with a portion that could be eaten before it broke, he selected the ones that he wanted to give to Zhao Jing from the rest, and promised I want to give it to Mr. Fu.

At this time, the handwork was relatively slow, and he didn't have many molds, so Chen Xing didn't make many patterns, and the rest were ordinary shapes.

Chen Xing gave Zhao Jing the rest of the patterned ones, and Mr. Fu's ones were all ordinary oval ones.As for the rest, he was going to read Mr. Fu's feedback before deciding how to pack them.

The next day was also the time when Chen Xing and Ms. Zhao agreed to come and pick up the jelly.

Before Chen Xing got to the booth, he saw a woman standing in front of his booth. When he got closer, he found that it was the maid who came to fetch jelly for Zhao Jing last time.

Seeing Chen Xing coming, the maid first blessed him, showing a gentle smile, and then said softly: "Little boss, I'm here to pick up the things my lady ordered."

Chen Xing still had a good impression of her. After hearing what she said, he immediately handed her the basket he was carrying, and said at the same time, "Everything is in it."

The maid was holding the crude food box in her hand, she didn't expect that it was what her miss Qian Ding Lingwan ordered, her eyes changed for a moment, but the smile on her face didn't weaken at all, "Thank you, little boss."

Chen Xing didn't notice his expression, he waved his hand and said indifferently: "You're welcome, I took the money this time."

The maid looked at Chen Xing's handsome face, didn't say anything more, smiled and left with the food box.

When the maid left with her things, Chen Xing looked at Qiu Jiu next to her and muttered, "Is it because I got her a beautiful food box to take back? After all, I have already collected so much money."

Qiu Jiu, who was next to him, shook his head disapprovingly, and said lightly: "I don't think it's necessary, after all, you are selling taste, not appearance." Hearing Qiu Jiu's words, Chen Xing nodded and thought He was right, then raised his eyebrows and looked at him, teasingly said: "I didn't expect you to know a lot."

Qiu Jiu scratched his head, and said foolishly, "It's all taught well by the young master."

The two started to set up a stall talking and laughing, but what made Chen Xing feel strange was that Mr. Fu, who used to come to his stall every day to sell food, disappeared today. A portion of jelly was not sent out either.

Chen Xing thought for a while, and felt that Mr. Fu must have been delayed by something, so he decided to wait until tomorrow to see.After all, for Mr. Fu who loves food so much, it is impossible for him to wait calmly after knowing that what he has always wanted to eat is available.

Zhao's mother, who went out to socialize with Zhao's father, walked straight towards Zhao Jing's yard as soon as she returned to Zhao's mansion.

When he saw Zhao Jing sitting in the main hall, he asked directly, "Where is the thing?"

As soon as Zhao Jing saw Zhao's mother, she was frightened, and now she didn't dare to hesitate when she saw her speak, and asked the maid beside her to bring the food box she had brought back.

The first time she saw the food box, Zhao's mother frowned, she looked at the box with disgust, and there was a bit of dissatisfaction in her voice, "He just used this thing to pack it."

Zhao Jing could tell from Zhao's mother's expression that she was unhappy, but she still bit the bullet and said, "Mom, take a look at the things first."

Although Zhao's mother disliked it, she still knew the seriousness, and asked the nanny beside her to open the box, but she was shocked the moment she saw what was inside.

There are seven flower-shaped jellies neatly placed inside, each of which is a different color. Taking advantage of the transparent state, it looks very beautiful.

Seeing this unique item, Zhao's mother knew the value of it, and said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, quickly change the box for them, and I will visit the county magistrate's wife while it is still early."

After finishing speaking, Zhao's mother didn't say anything else, and directly asked the servants to leave in a hurry with the food box.

Zhao Jing has been standing by the side respectfully seeing off Zhao's mother, and only after she left did she slowly sit down and let out a long breath.Mother's test is finally over.

It wasn't until the room became quiet again that the maid next to Zhao Jing muttered: "Miss, Madam doesn't keep a single compliment, it's the lady who worked so hard to come here, and the lady has taken so much care of herself."

Zhao Jing didn't look at her, but smiled helplessly, and said softly to the maid: "It's good that mother is happy, and everything that surrounds me is not all given by the Zhao family, so it's okay to contribute. Just don't say this again in the future." The words are gone, so as not to spread to the mother's ears, I will find a chance to punish you when the time comes."

The servant girl was frightened and immediately covered her mouth.

Zhao Jing saw that she was almost done, looked at her and said relaxedly: "Okay, now that mother is gone, go get me something to eat, and be careful."

The servant girl looked at her with some hesitation, but finally went out according to her order.

Until the room became quiet, Zhao Jing sighed softly, and murmured to herself: "I just hope that mother will not be greedy in the future."

Chen Xing didn't send out the jelly for Mr. Fu on the first day, but he still took it with him the next day after hesitating.He thought that if Mr. Fu hadn't come to pick it up today, he would eat it by himself, otherwise it would easily go bad if it wasn't chilled.

As a result, when Chen Xing arrived at the booth, he immediately saw a familiar chubby figure waiting there anxiously.Even though they were far away, Chen Xing recognized that person as Mr. Fu at a glance.

After seeing Chen Xing coming, Mr. Fu's eyes lit up immediately, and he ran towards him, first stuffed a small purse into his hand, and then said eagerly: "My food Woolen cloth?"

Chen Xing was a little dazed by his series of actions, but he still handed him the box he was holding in his arms, and said dully, "This is for you."

Mr. Fu held the box with excitement written all over his face, but he didn't open it immediately, but looked at Chen Xing and said, "It's time to wait, I'm leaving first." After finishing speaking, he didn't care to say anything more, He ran away in a hurry with the box in his arms.

Chen Xing looked at the back of Mr. Fu hurriedly running away, but couldn't help but say, "The power of foodie is really great!"

Qiu Jiu next to him was a little confused, but looking at Chen Xing with an admiring expression, he hesitated for a while and didn't ask any more questions, since it had nothing to do with him after all.

That Mr. Fu came to the school with the food he had been thinking about for a long time, and the next second he stepped in, he realized that something was wrong, and the surroundings were a little too quiet.
