Chapter 88: Coaxing People is a Technical Task
The prince was dressed in a purple robe, his hair tied up with a jade crown, his eyebrows and eyes were like ink, and he stared at Su Wan intently.
She had a slender figure, her hair casually tied up with a wooden hairpin, and she wore a simple cloth skirt that exuded a charming femininity.
Apart from the same eyebrows and eyes, the aura that radiated from inside out seemed to have changed her into a different person.
The prince touched her unfamiliar gaze, his fingers tightened in his sleeves, and his gaze fell on the dumpling she was making in her hand, pinching out beautiful frills.
She had high standards for the food she made, not only in appearance but also in taste. She would only send it to the palace when she was satisfied with it.
The queen and the wife of Marquis of Dingyuan were close friends in their boudoirs. To cultivate their relationship, they allowed Su Wan to come and go freely in the palace.
She said, “Brother Feng, I only make soup for you. If it’s not delicious, you have to tell me, and I’ll make it a few more times until it’s delicious.”
Now she is making soup for others.
The prince’s Adam’s apple moved slightly, as if he had drunk a bitter decoction, bitter to his heart.
“Ah Wan.”
He called out softly.
Su Wan frowned. The original owner didn’t have much screen time in the book. It was about the love and hatred between the prince and Su Mixue, from the initial killing to the final love, and finally ascending to the throne together, deeply in love, becoming a good story in the Zhou Dynasty.
The original owner died, she was the prince’s white moonlight, after the prince fell in love with Su Mixue, she became the white rice at the corner of his mouth.
“Ah Wan, are you okay?” The prince walked up to Su Wan, his eyes concerned, “If you don’t want to stay here, I…”
“Can you shut up! If you really have this heart, you should have arranged my way out when you chose the position of the crown prince. Now that I’m married to Gu Huaizhi, I’m his person. If I don’t stay here, where should I go?”
Su Wan didn’t want to see the prince at all, especially with such a bitter look, “You chose me for the position of the crown prince, and now you have given up on me for the position of the crown prince. Since you have made a choice, you can’t turn back and say inappropriate things.”
Go! Take your wife and go! Don’t disturb my peace!
Su Wan was too bitter in her heart.
She was so busy that she couldn’t even earn money, and she had to free up her hands to deal with this couple.
When she had some free time, wouldn’t it be nice to eat a plate of dumplings steamed by Gu Huaizhi?
“If you really care about the feelings of the past, don’t disturb me, don’t cause me trouble.”
“Take care of yourselves!”
Su Wan, thinking about the dumplings, didn’t want to waste more words and casually closed the door.
The prince held the door, seeing Su Wan’s impatient eyes, he really felt that he was an eyesore.
His throat was dry, “Ah Wan, you owe me a sachet.”
Su Wan glared at the prince.
“You said you would give me a sachet for the Dragon Boat Festival.” The prince’s dark eyes were dim, and he pulled the corner of his mouth, “You haven’t given it yet.”
“We used to be fiancés, it was reasonable for me to do needlework for you. Now we have no relationship at all, and you ask me for a sachet?” Su Wan sneered, “Where do you get such a big face?”
“Bang——”
Su Wan slammed the door shut.
She turned around and kicked a pebble.
The pebble rolled and stopped next to a pair of cloth shoes.
Su Wan looked up and saw Gu Huaizhi standing not far away, his eyebrows and eyes were refined, and he was looking at her with a calm expression.
There was a kind of coldness like snow falling between green pines, the previous harmonious atmosphere was completely gone.
She felt a tightness in her chest, inexplicably guilty, and asked dryly, “Gu Huaizhi, are the dumplings ready?”
She blinked, touched her belly with her flour-covered hand, “I’m so hungry.”
“They’re ready.” Gu Huaizhi’s lips pressed slightly, “I ate them.”
He looked upset, and she didn’t dare to provoke him.
“Oh.” Su Wan drew a line on the ground with her toe, and pouted, “I’ll steam it myself then.”
Gu Huaizhi didn’t look at her and turned to go into the house.
He recognized the man as the prince.
When the prince asked Su Wan for a sachet, Gu Huaizhi remembered that the prince’s regular clothes, underwear, silk stockings, shoes, handkerchiefs, and other things were all sewn by Su Wan herself. She even specially invited various chefs to learn cooking for the prince.
Gu Huaizhi thought that Su Wan’s cooking skills were so excellent now, all of them were honed for other men(the prince), he wanted to throw all the dumplings on the table and not give her any to eat.
At this moment, Gu Huaizhi had long forgotten his previous speculation that Su Wan had changed.
His rationality was all messed up.
“Bang——”
Gu Huaizhi slammed the door.
Su Wan stared at the closed door in confusion.
He had the nerve to be angry after eating her dumplings!
Su Wan hummed lightly, walked into the living room, and saw two plates of steamed dumplings on the table, even thoughtfully paired with sauce.
Mother Gu said with a smile, “Wanwan, Huaizhi steamed a plate of vegetarian three delicacies and a plate of shepherd’s purse dumplings, you should try them all.”
“I love them all! As long as it’s dumplings, I like any filling.” Su Wan instantly smiled, took a shepherd’s purse dumpling into her mouth, and bit through the dough. The fresh aroma filled her mouth, it was so hot that she had to exhale, she swallowed a whole one, satisfied, her eyes curved, “The shepherd’s purse meat dumplings are so delicious, you should also have one.”
Su Wan picked one up and put it into Mother Gu’s mouth.
Mother Gu was taken aback, and quickly opened her mouth to eat the dumpling, “Wanwan, you eat, there are still a lot in the kitchen. If it’s not enough, I’ll steam more for you.”
“It’s enough, I’m just hungry.” Su Wan ate the one filled with vegetarian three delicacies, and mumbled, “The dumplings are hanging in the well, let Gu Huaizhi cook them tomorrow morning.”
Mother Gu, “It’s delicious when fried, let Huaizhi fry another plate, you will definitely like it.”
“Good!” Su Wan’s bad mood dissipated, and she happily said, “Add a bowl of soy milk.”
“I’ll soak the beans now.” Mother Gu excitedly went to the kitchen to soak the soybeans, and grind the soy milk tomorrow morning.
Su Wan bit the dumpling in her mouth, and pondered Gu Huaizhi’s little mood. She held a plate of dumplings, and with her cheeks bulging with dumplings, she slowly came to the door, and knocked it.
The door opened automatically.
Su Wan poked her head in, and Gu Huaizhi was sitting on the edge of the bed reading a book.
She scooted over and sat next to Gu Huaizhi, his eyebrows and eyes didn’t move at all, his slender fingers flipped a page of the book.
“Gu Huaizhi, the dumplings are delicious, you should eat one.”
Su Wan held a dumpling to his mouth.
Gu Huaizhi’s eyebrows jumped, just about to push her hand away, Su Wan leaned over and smiled at him, “It’s really delicious.”
She nudged his arm with her elbow and urged, “Hurry up, it’s my first time feeding someone, my hand is sore.”
Gu Huaizhi sneered in his heart. When the prince was punished, it was her who fed him bite by bite.
That’s what he thought, but he ate the dumpling with a straight face and an indifferent expression.
Su Wan ate one herself and then fed Gu Huaizhi another one.
Gu Huaizhi stared at the dumpling for a while, then ate it in silence.
The two of them, one for you and one for me, shared a plate of dumplings.
Su Wan asked, “Not angry anymore? Are we reconciled?”
Gu Huaizhi pursed his lips, didn’t speak, and his gaze fell on a washed white garment on the side, with the cuff was torn a hole.
Su Wan understood in a second, “……”
Brother, I can’t sew!
