Chapter 297: Let Xiejiazhuang keep a low profile

Now that things have come to this, Shen Wan can't refuse.

But Ah Fu Niang, like Madam He, is a very frugal person. Even if she is asked to do more, there probably won't be much left.

If Ranqiu were asked to serve the dishes, they would definitely bring most of them and only keep a little for themselves.

Shen Wan thought about it, and then asked Ran Qiu to go to the backyard kitchen to make a few.

"Try to make it as unpalatable as possible." Chen Wan pulled Ran Qiu's sleeve and lowered her voice to instruct, "You don't have to make too many. Four dishes will be enough. The unpalatable the better. It's best not to add salt."

Wasn't someone ordered to inspect the salt affairs? He must have consumed a lot of salt. It would be nice to eat something light now.

Although Ranqiu was confused, he still did as he was told.

She is a girl, and she knows clearly what to ask and what not to ask.

Not to mention the imperial envoy, even if the dog emperor came, she would only listen to Shen Wan.

After a while, four dishes that had no color, aroma or taste were presented.

Looking at the black food, Xie Mubai curled the corners of his lips.

In order to welcome this great imperial envoy, this little woman really put in a lot of effort.

"There is no cook in this inn?" Shen Yizhou looked at it and was so shocked that his eyes almost fell out.

After traveling all over the country for so many years, this was the first time he had seen such bad food. Was this really meant for human consumption?

Shen Wan smiled sweetly, her smile even brighter than the sunshine outside: "Not only is there no cook here, there is not even a waiter or an accountant, there is only one boss."

"The boss should be at home taking care of his mother right now. He doesn't have time for us. You have to do whatever you need yourself."

Shen Yizhou was about to speak when he felt a cold gaze falling on him.

Looking up, he saw Xie Mubai staring at him sinisterly.

It would be strange if Xie Mubai was happy.

Since they met, the little woman has smiled at the imperial envoy many times.

Besides, Shen Yizhou was determined to break them up, so it was absolutely impossible to expect him to be in a good mood.

Shen Yizhou is no ordinary person either.

Facing that sharp gaze, he was not afraid at all, but instead faced it directly.

Little guy, who’s afraid of who?

After all, I am an important official in the court. How can I be afraid of this green boy?

Before they even had their meal, the two of them were already on the verge of a fight.

Shen Wan looked at it, and quickly picked up a piece of meat and put it in Shen Yizhou’s bowl: “Uncle, try it, Ranqiu’s cooking skills are very good.”

Shen Yizhou wanted to say that it was true that he was not smart, but he was not stupid.

Even dogs wouldn't eat this black and greasy meat.

Shen Wan ignored him and just picked up a piece of fish and stuffed it into her mouth.

Well, Ranqiu really listened to her and didn’t add salt if she said so!

This fish dish is low in salt, oil and pollution-free. I guarantee you won’t want to eat it again after eating it.

"You actually eat fish?" Shen Yizhou was shocked.

Seeing the astonishment in his eyes, Shen Wan felt her palms wet.

It’s over, the original owner must not eat fish!

what to do?

"Uncle, to be honest, even I didn't expect this day to come." Her eyes rolled and she immediately smiled. "You don't know that when I was starving on the road, let alone fish, I could swallow even fish bones."

Anyway, the original owner was not allergic to fish, so it was easy for him to make up an excuse to get away with it.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Shen Yizhou felt mixed emotions.

The corners of his eyes turned red, and then he picked up the piece of meat with trembling hands and put it into his mouth.

Shen Yizhou was not a picky eater, but when faced with this greasy yet tasteless braised pork, he felt his stomach juice rising up and he almost vomited all over the floor.

"Is it delicious?" Seeing that he wanted to vomit, Shen Wan deliberately smiled and said, "I knew that you would like it, uncle."

After hearing this, Shen Yizhou could only bite the bullet and swallow the meat.

He drank a cup of tea, then asked in a hoarse voice, "Wan'er, you must have suffered a lot on this journey, right?"

Before he finished speaking, he regretted asking.

Isn't this nonsense?

Exile is not just traveling around. If you don’t suffer a little, can it still be called exile?

"It's okay." Shen Wan made a cup of tea for the villain and said with a smile, "Luckily, the prince is here, otherwise I might not be able to hold on."

Looking at her infatuated look, Shen Yizhou couldn't help but be speechless.

I really don't know what's wrong with this girl. She ignores so many good men in the world and only falls for this thing!

Even if it was the arrogant Wang Qi, he could accept it.

"I've heard a little about your journey." He thought for a moment and said, "Wan'er, if you insist on going to the Northwest, your uncle won't stop you."

"But you have to promise your uncle one thing: don't marry him for the time being, and don't have children with him."

As long as they don't get married, there's still room for improvement.

If the matter is settled, it will be terrible. He can't let her make the same mistake again.

"Even if I'm not sensible, I wouldn't dare get married at this time." Shen Wan smiled sweetly, "The prince is still in mourning, so the wedding will definitely have to wait a few years."

After hearing this, Shen Yizhou finally let go of his worry.

Fortunately, this girl still knows about the three-year mourning period.

Three years is enough time for a lot of things to happen.

Shen Yizhou thought for a moment and said, “Wan’er, I want to drink some soup. Go make it for me.”

Obviously, he had something to say to the villain alone.

Shen Wan didn’t refuse, and said with a smile: “Then uncle, you eat first, I will make it right away.”

Before she finished speaking, she and Ran Qiu both retreated.

Suddenly, only Shen Yizhou and the villain were left in the empty lobby.

"I know, you were the one who put the underwear in that drunkard's arms." Shen Yizhou's face was gloomy, and two sharp cold lights shot out from his eyes. "The reason I didn't expose it was just that I didn't want to waste time on insignificant people."

"There's something I want you to tell me the truth about. Does the matter between the Third Prince and Shen Yan have anything to do with you?"

Xie Mubai shook his head slightly.

He didn't expect that little trick to fool Shen Yizhou, but he believed that Shen Yizhou would stand on Shen Wan's side.

"If you like Wan'er, you'd better be quiet." Shen Yizhou stared at him intently, his low voice intimidating without anger, "I won't go to Xiejiazhuang, but you'd better ask them to keep a low profile."

"Just because I can turn a blind eye doesn't mean others will do the same."

"Xie Mubai, I won't stop you from dying if you want to, but you'd better not implicate Wan'er!"

Xie Mubai's dark pupils shrank slightly.

He stretched out his slender white fingers and slowly picked up the cup of tea: "You can report it to the emperor. Anyway, the Xie family is not afraid of being raided again."

copy?

What to copy?

The Duke Zhenguo's Mansion had already been confiscated, and the ancestral temple was not within the scope of the search.

Even if the dog emperor wanted to confiscate the property, he probably wouldn't be able to find even a piece of clothing.

Seeing him acting like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of boiling water, Shen Yizhou was so angry that his teeth were itching.
