Chapter 84 Settling Accounts with Su Mixue

Su Wan felt that it was expected.

Su Mixue regarded her as a thorn in her side, how could she watch her life getting better and better?

Su Mixue would definitely take revenge for the humiliation of kneeling before.

Su Wan's eyes flashed with a sharp light. Su Mixue could come to her if she had something to do, but she should never touch the Gu family.

"The dean is virtuous and upright, and he has never succumbed to power. I admire him." Su Wan flattered him and poured tea for Dean Lin. Her smile was less distant and more sincere: "You are Huaizhi's senior brother, so I won't be polite to you and treat you to a home-cooked meal."

Gu's mother was secretly shocked. Dean Lin was actually Gu Huaizhi's senior brother?

Her seniority was raised all of a sudden.

Gu's mother's hands stopped shaking, her legs were no longer weak, and her heart was no longer panicked. Looking at Dean Lin, who was several years older than her, her face showed a kind look at the younger generation.

"Yes, yes, yes, we are one family, stay and eat before you leave."

Mother Gu hurried to the kitchen to prepare a set of clean dishes for Dean Lin.

Dean Lin had a kind face, looking at several home-cooked dishes, which were delicious and fragrant. He smiled heartily and said, "My junior brother said that you are a great cook and you are the chef in Zui Xiang Lou. I have long wanted to taste your cooking skills. Today I specially sent Jingyun a school admission ticket to fulfill my wish."

Su Wan knew that this was a polite remark. Dean Lin was mainly telling her that Su Mixue was making moves behind her and asked her to be careful of Su Mixue.

"I'll call Huaizhi back to have dinner with you." Su Wan walked out of the main room and saw Gu Huaizhi coming back with a basket filled with fresh and green shepherd's purse: "Hey, this shepherd's purse is very fresh, where did you pick it?"

Gu Huaizhi: "By the river."

"Oh, you picked it now." Gu's mother came out of the house and smiled when she saw the shepherd's purse. She said to Su Wan: "I mentioned it yesterday. You want to eat shepherd's purse dumplings."

Picked it specially for her?

Su Wan tilted her head to look at Gu Huaizhi. The man looked calm and not uncomfortable at all.

She pouted and took the basket from Gu Huaizhi: "Your senior brother is coming to our house for dinner. I won't make dumplings today. I'll make a cold dish."

Su Wan went to the kitchen and cleaned the shepherd's purse with quick hands and feet, blanched it in water, squeezed out the water and cut it into sections, mashed the garlic, and added sesame oil, soy sauce, salt, red pepper and other seasonings to mix well.

The green shepherd's purse is dotted with white garlic paste and a little red pepper, and the color is very attractive.

Su Wan served it on the table, "Shepherd's purse has the effect of soothing the spleen and stomach and improving eyesight. You can try it."

Dean Lin looked at a simple plate of wild vegetables. After Su Wan's hands, it became particularly tempting. He took a chopstick of shepherd's purse and put it in his mouth. It was fresh and refreshing. After swallowing it, a faint mountain fragrance lingered between his lips and teeth. A little bit of spicy taste played a role in adjusting and opening the appetite.

"Your cooking skills are really good. I used to be unable to eat wild vegetables. I can eat all the dishes you made." Dean Lin is an honest person. He ate half of this plate of shepherd's purse.

"Don't eat this dish, eat something else." Su Wan pushed a bowl of Mapo Tofu in front of Dean Lin: "This is also my specialty."

Dean Lin took a look at the porcelain white bowl filled with fresh tofu, surrounded by red oil, and green garlic segments embedded in it, which looked very appetizing.

He scooped a piece with a porcelain spoon and put it in the bowl to taste it. The tofu was tender and smooth, the pork cubes were fragrant and crispy, the numbness was not at all spicy, and the spicy taste was not dry. The aroma of bean paste was very prominent. Unknowingly, a few pieces of tofu were eaten, and the spicy and fresh smell continued in the mouth.

Dean Lin's eyes lit up immediately.

This time, Su Wan didn't need to recommend it. He tried boiled fish fillets and chicken stewed with mushrooms. It made people want to grow two stomachs to stuff all the dishes on the table.

After eating and drinking, Dean Lin put down his chopsticks.

His mood became particularly good, "If you have any help, just ask my senior brother, you're welcome." Looking at the sky, Dean Lin stood up and said, "There are still some things to deal with in the academy, I'll leave first."

Gu Huaizhi and Su Wan saw Dean Lin out together.

Dean Lin said to Gu Huaizhi: "Please stay, I have something to say to my sister-in-law."

Gu Huaizhi frowned, but didn't send him off again, and helped to clean up the dishes.

Su Wan walked out of the yard with Dean Lin.

"Sister-in-law, my junior brother is stubborn. He has a conflict with the old gentleman that has not been resolved. The old man misses him and can't bring himself to see him. I think my junior brother cares about you very much. You should persuade him more when you are free." Dean Lin felt that he was worried.

Back then, he found Gu Huaizhi, a good seedling, and invited him to Xihe Academy. It happened that the old gentleman came to Xihe Academy from the capital and directly intercepted Gu Huaizhi as his last disciple.

Although Gu Huaizhi was extremely talented and brilliant, he acted very eccentrically and was decisive in killing. Not only was he cruel to others, he was also cruel to himself.

The old gentleman was worried that he would go astray, so he was particularly strict with Gu Huaizhi. He was very respectful to his teacher, but his political views were contrary to the old gentleman. Later, I don't know what happened, and he was expelled from the old gentleman.

During the New Year, festivals and birthdays, Gu Huaizhi would still send gifts, but he would no longer visit.

The old man said that out of sight, out of mind. When they were together, there would always be an empty chair next to him.

"Sister-in-law, you must bring your junior brother to the old man's birthday in a few days." Dean Lin entrusted her with an important task.

Su Wan felt that Dean Lin thought too highly of her.

Gu Huaizhi had only been kind to her recently, and Dean Lin couldn't persuade him, so how could she persuade him?

Based on the relationship of the two sleeping in the same bed?

"I'll give it a try." Su Wan was reluctant to refuse, so she said the ugly words in advance, "Don't hold out hope, he won't listen to me."

Dean Lin looked at her meaningfully, "Just try."

It doesn't work, I've wasted all these years of studying.

Su Wan felt uneasy after seeing Dean Lin's last look. After watching Dean Lin leave, she went back to the room and found Gu Huaizhi in the kitchen, where he was washing dishes. Su Wan rolled up her sleeves and stood side by side with him, and the two of them washed the dishes together.

She thought for a while and coughed lightly: "Gu Huaizhi, the old man is not in good health. I will go to see him for a follow-up in a few days. Will you accompany me?"

Gu Huaizhi lowered his eyes and stared at the hands of the two people who occasionally touched each other, and his thoughts were a little scattered.

It will be the old man's birthday in a few days. Without thinking too much, you will know what the senior brother said to Su Wan.

The emperor is still alive, and the old man has always disagreed with the regent's rule. For this reason, he withdrew from the cabinet and resigned from the position of Prime Minister. But he unexpectedly became the adopted son of the Regent and joined the Regent's party. The old gentleman expelled him from his school for this.

Gu Huaizhi looked out the window. Gu Baozhu squatted on the ground. Gu Jingyun frowned and tied her hair with a bitter face. He didn't tie it well several times and scratched his head anxiously.

Gu Baozhu pulled Gu Jingyun's sleeve. The two squatted together with their heads next to each other. She grabbed a handful of hair and taught Gu Jingyun how to tie a hair tie.

Gu Jingyun tried again with a focused look and successfully tied the hair tie. The good pigtails turned into sky-high braids. He was stunned for a moment and grinned.

Gu Huaizhi looked at the two smiles that were warmer than the morning sun, and he only wished that they would be so carefree for the rest of their lives.

Su Wan saw that Gu Huaizhi had not spoken, and thought he would not agree.

Gu Huaizhi whispered: "I'll take you there."

"Gu Huaizhi, you're so nice!" Su Wan smiled brightly at him.

Gu Huaizhi stared at her smiling face, his bright eyes seemed to be filled with starlight, so bright that it was amazing. His calm eyes darkened, turned away, and continued to wash the dishes.

Su Wan finished one thing, and the big stone in her heart fell. She ran directly to the town to find Su Mixue to settle a score.
