Chapter 142 Know Your Feelings
Cao Suxue...
Su Wan remembered who this person was, Cao Wanqing's concubine.
When I saw her at the inn that day, was Cao Suxue sending a letter to Gu Huaizhi?
Su Wan pursed her lips, Cao Suxue was the daughter of the governor of Liangjiang, and she actually knew Gu Huaizhi?
How many identities does he have?
The corner of Su Wan's eyes was a little erratic, and she wanted to pry into the content of the letter in a very shameless manner.
The letter fell clearly into her sight.
Su Wan looked at Gu Huaizhi in shock.
Gu Huaizhi agreed: "I once went south to seek medical treatment, and was fortunate enough to be appreciated by Mr. Cao. I stayed in the Cao Mansion for a while and served as the teacher of Miss Seven."
When Su Wan saw the words "Mr. Gu" and combined with Gu Huaizhi's words, he understood.
Every word in Cao Suxue's letter reveals the thoughts of the girl Huaichun, telling Gu Huaizhi that she and Cao Wanqing were assassinated. Fortunately, she was lucky enough to be rescued, but she also suffered a lot of fright. She is recuperating in the Liu Mansion, here She and Cao Wanqing were both afraid of being in a strange place. Remembering that Gu Huaizhi was from Guangling Mansion, they wrote to him to say hello, fearing that they might not be able to come to visit.
Reading between the lines, it hinted that Gu Huaizhi went to visit her.
At that time, Cao Suxue wrote and did not expect that Gu Huaizhi was taking the provincial examination.
Gu Huaizhi once said that he was weak and could not endure the hardship of the imperial examination.
Su Wan pushed the letter away and looked at Gu Huaizhi with her clear eyes, "You have a good relationship with her at Cao's house?"
This question is more subtle.
Gu Huaizhi said bluntly: "Master Cao wanted to recruit me as his son-in-law and betroth Miss Cao to me. I have a marriage contract and declined."
Su Wan raised her eyebrows: "You don't have a marriage contract, so you become the son-in-law of the Cao family?"
Investigating this matter is a bit confusing.
Gu Huaizhi's fiancée back then was not Su Wan.
Su Wan knew she had said something wrong and had no position to ask, but at that moment her emotions surged up and she asked without thinking.
Gu Huaizhi has good skin and good bones, so he is very attractive to bad guys.
Su Wan thought in her heart that the two of them were in a plastic relationship and would break up sooner or later. It was quite unpleasant that a woman really coveted him. He was not as generous as he thought.
"Won't."
Su Wan curled her lips: Who believes it?
But my heart couldn't help but feel happy.
"Fortunately, you are not married. The second Miss Cao does not seem to be a kind-hearted person. The people we rescued in Fucheng this time are the Cao family sisters. They said that the enemies were seeking revenge. The two sisters fled for their lives. The enemies only targeted the eldest Miss Cao family. , all the people who protected her were poisoned and killed. Miss Cao Er’s people were all safe. She asked Magistrate Liu to come over. "
Su Wan pointed out the suspicion: "When they fled, they must not have had time to eat while dealing with their enemies. They must have eaten on the carriage. Such a coincidence, the people around Miss Cao Er, Haven’t you eaten any food?”
Gu Huaizhi frowned.
"Of course, it's also possible that during the pursuit, the enemy sprinkled some poison." Su Wan came to the conclusion: "It's essential to be on guard against others. It's better to be more cautious."
Gu Huaizhi smiled with a smile on his lips: "You are absolutely right."
Su Wan's face turned hot. She was not deliberately discrediting Cao Suxue and keeping Gu Huaizhi away for her own selfish reasons.
Just stating the facts.
She lowered her head and scratched the untamed dirt floor with her toes, feeling a little upset.
Cao Suxue's letter made her realize her possessiveness towards Gu Huaizhi.
Maybe she had fallen into a trap without even knowing it?
Otherwise, how could you feel happy because of the little surprise he gave, and even impulsively set off to Fucheng immediately?
She couldn't help but wonder, where is Gu Huaizhi?
Does he have feelings for her?
If two people are in love with each other, the marriage will be a natural success.
What if he doesn't like it?
Su Wan bit her lower lip, then be nice to him, boil the frog in warm water, and let him sink sooner or later.
Gu Huaizhi looked at Su Wan as if she had figured something out, and suddenly raised her head. The dim yellow light fell on her fair face, and her eyebrows were curved like a shining crescent moon, which was particularly moving.
He raised his hand and rubbed her head: "When I was in the Cao Mansion, except for teaching Xiaoqi, I never left the courtyard. Occasionally, I would discuss matters with Mr. Cao. When I went to the study room in the front yard, I met the ladies of the Cao family. A few times, I didn’t say a few words.”
Her hair was soft and smooth and felt very good. Gu Huaizhi lingered for a while and said in a low voice: "Things that have never happened before will never happen in the future."
Su Wan said "Oh" and saw Gu's mother coming out with two bowls of fried rice, "Go wash your hands and eat."
While eating, Gu's mother asked about the two people's situation in Fucheng, and after they finished eating, she asked them to go and rest quickly.
Su Wan lay on the bed after taking a shower, with Gu Huaizhi sleeping next to her. I don't know if it was enough to be in the carriage when she came, or because she suddenly realized her feelings. The man she liked was sleeping next to her, and she suddenly felt uncomfortable and a little shy. , and a little shy, lying upright without moving.
She slept conscientiously, and Gu Huaizhi was not sleepy. Su Wan no longer slept near him, and she was not used to it.
Gu Huaizhi turned sideways and approached Su Wan.
"!!!"
Su Wan froze up and held her breath.
He didn't take a step closer, and his breathing was long. He was asleep.
Su Wan relaxed and suddenly felt a little disappointed.
Turning over, facing Gu Huaizhi, looking at his beauty, a thought suddenly came to her mind - the two of them were husband and wife, and they were in the same bed for so long, but she never thought about getting her hands on him. Is it too wasteful?
——
Su Wan didn't sleep well all night. She got up early, made breakfast, and went to the town alone.
She went to the town restaurant first. The restaurant was full of guests in the morning. They even set up tables at the door and in the backyard for diners to eat breakfast.
When Manager Xu saw Su Wan, he came over happily and said, "Madam Gu, the fish rice noodles, pig rice noodles, and rice tofu you provided are very popular in the morning. Other restaurants also sent people to eat secretly, hoping to learn from you."
When Manager Xu heard the strange name, he thought it would not sell well. Who knew that Su Wan's taste was so good that it was in short supply every day after it was launched.
Those who can eat spicy food can eat fish rice noodles, and those who have a light taste can eat pig rice noodles. The ingredients in it include pig blood, white tofu, pork, pig liver, eggs and other ingredients. It is particularly fresh and fragrant when cooked.
The rice noodles she taught to make are white and shiny, as thin as silk threads, and the taste is very different from noodles.
"Some customers asked us to buy rice noodles. Should we sell them?" Shopkeeper Xu asked Su Wan for his opinion: "Some people are from other places. They ate it once and thought it was very delicious. They want to take some away for their families to try."
Su Wan refused: "No, it's not easy to preserve. If they take it home and it goes bad, what should we do if they get sick?"
Shopkeeper Xu's eyes suddenly lit up: "Then we can open a restaurant in another place!"
