Chapter 710: Taking Advantage of the Situation



Chapter 710: Use the trick against

the enemy Use the trick against the enemy?

As soon as these four words came out, the eyes of the Jiang family all lit up, knowing that Guaibao had another trick!

Jiang Fengze put down the tea bowl and said quickly, "Sister, what do you want to do? If you really want to let the Gu family teach you a lesson, you say that the third brother will do whatever you say!"

Xiao Nuobao touched his chin, and his little mind was like a spinning top, which had already turned four or five times.

She hummed, "The Gu family has repeatedly hit a wall before, and

they must be eager to turn the tables, so now spreading the epidemic into the city should be their biggest hope." "So, let's hide the fact that we have found the prescription for the time being, pretend that the epidemic is still uncontrollable, let them think that the plan has succeeded, and then they will be careless and show their true colors." Xiao Nuobao looked thoughtful.

In this way, not only can they be happy for nothing.

More importantly, it can also make Gu Pingzhi and others relax their vigilance.

Xiao Lanyi's eyes lit up and she immediately clapped her hands in applause.

"Great, your third brother and I were originally worried that the Gu army had been unable to retreat and we didn't know how to attack. Now that you said that, this might be a good opportunity to lure the snake out of its hole, so let's do it!"

Jiang Fengze's face showed joy after hearing this.

This is a great idea, why didn't he think of it before?

Originally, Jiang Fengze was worried about what to do with the Gu family's private army outside the city.

The situation outside the city was not fully understood, and the commander was most afraid of being aggressive and hasty, so he could only keep his troops in place and defend the capital, but he was almost frustrated.

But for now, we have to follow what my sister said, and use the trick against Gu Pingzhi to let

him down. Maybe he can seize the opportunity and catch him in one fell swoop.

Jiang Fengze smiled with his handsome face, hugging the chubby little girl, "Okay, you are really the smartest one in our family. This opportunity must be used up. Then my third brother will go out and make arrangements."

Several major medical clinics in Beijing are the most convenient places to find out about the condition of the patient.

So Jiang Fengze arranged people to pretend to be servants and boys and go in and out of the clinic from time to time, pretending to get medicine for the master.

There are also those officials and families. Although they have obtained the prescription, Fengze went to inform them that they must not leak the news, and everything is still the same as before.

But Xiao Nuobao still feels that this is not enough.

If you want to act, you have to do it all, so she plans to "put herself in the game" and pretend to be sick.

If even the princess falls

, Gu Jun will definitely be more complacent.

It's easy to pretend to be sick, just stay indoors and spread the news.

However, in order to control Gu Pingzhi, Xiao Nuobao thinks it would be better to have an insider, or catch one or two spies there to get some information about Gu Jun's recent situation.

This can't be rushed for the time being. What needs to be done now is to confuse Gu Jun first.

In order to make it more realistic, the Jiang family would wipe their eyes with chili peppers when they went out, for fear that they would not pretend well.

However, pretending is just pretending.

Other things can't be delayed.

It's only four or five days until the Mid-Autumn Festival. Once the Jiang Mansion is closed, it's time to celebrate the festival happily.

Li Qiqiao hasn't been to the water shop for two days. She wants to stay at home and think about mooncakes to come up with one or two new ways.

When she heard that they were going to eat mooncakes, the little fat girl hurriedly brought her fourth and fifth brothers to the kitchen door and begged Li Qiqiao to put less green silk and peanuts this year.

Sun Chunxue, who was selecting vegetables at the side, could not help but taunt, "Look at you kids, whose mooncakes don't have green silk in them? Can they still be called mooncakes? And green silk is a precious commodity. If it weren't for our better conditions now, we couldn't even have it in the past."

Little Nuobao puffed up her cheeks and shook her head like a rattle in resistance.

She really didn't understand why adults were so obsessed with putting green silk in mooncakes.

Anyway, she was about to vomit.

Li Qiqiao looked at the three of them, their pitiful eyes, and couldn't help laughing, "Okay, anyway, mooncakes with various ingredients and five nuts are sold everywhere on the street, so this year we will make new styles and make the ones you like."

Xiao Nuobao jumped three feet high with joy, clapped his hands to his second sister-in-law, and after celebrating that the green silk and peanuts were "abandoned", he took his two brothers to sit at the door and wait.

Li Qiqiao was too lazy to rub the green silk, so she simply followed the food book she had read before and planned to try some flavored mooncakes from the southern province and Yunnan.

If the test was good, she could make some and put them in the water shop.

So she washed some red dates, flower petals, and added some salted egg yolks, planning to make a few more flavors.

The red dates were mashed into a paste, and then mixed with sugar and flower petals to make a paste of date petals.

The biscuits outside were not made as before, but were replaced with crispy crust, which was soft and fluffy, and the fragrance was overflowing when you put it in your mouth.

When the first batch of moon cakes came out of the pot around noon, Xiao Nuobao quickly took two and ate them with a look of amazement, giving a thumbs up to his second sister-in-law.

Feng took a bite and her eyes lit up, "I have never tasted this taste before. It is quite good, right? My second wife, make another pot in the afternoon and send some to Madam Xiao and Madam Wu." "

There is also the Charity Bureau. The children there will definitely love it. Sister-in-law, thank you for your trouble." Jiang Fengnian took a bite of half a moon cake and hurried over to say.

Li Qiqiao smiled and nodded, then went out and called two servants, asking them to go out again and buy more red dates and flower petals so that they could come back and make more pots.

However, during this reunion festival, not every family can have a happy reunion.

Look, in the Li Mansion in the south of the city, in this beautiful scene, a low cry was heard.

Since Li Qingping had no news, Li Hutu had been depressed for many days. He stayed at home all day without tying his hair or washing his face. When he closed his eyes, he would shout where his Ping'er had gone.

When the Jiang family heard about this, although they felt sorry for him, they had to live their own lives after all.

So they just muttered a few words in the mansion, but didn't say anything else.

On this day, in order to give Nuobao a surprise, Xiao Lanyi went out happily, planning to go to a small pier in the suburbs of Beijing to buy a few cages of big river crabs from Panzhou

to add color to the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The small pier was just outside the city, more than an hour away from the Jiang family.

On weekdays, fruits, vegetables and fresh goods from the north and south provinces are often sent here first, and then the best ones are picked to enter the city.

The remaining inferior products are sent to various places outside Beijing. It can be said that this place is a mixed bag.

Xiao Lanyi just arrived at the small pier and got off the horse. He saw several porters nearby carrying the freshest crabs.

His eyes lit up, and he was about to take off the purse at his waist and walk over.

Who knew that at this moment, he heard a burst of cursing, not far away.

"This woman is only breathing her last breath, and you still want to sell her to me for five taels? Do you think I don't know how to count?"

"Five taels is too much! Look carefully, she is so delicate and tender. She used to be a lady from a scholarly family. If she hadn't fallen into our hands, you, a stinky footman, would never have been able to touch her!"

Hearing this, Xiao Lanyi frowned and immediately turned around to look...
