Gu Lingze locked himself in his room that day, and Aunt Tao brought him meals.
After thinking it over again and again, Xu Fulang told her husband that she would go to the store in the afternoon.
After seeing Brother Wu off, he knocked on Gu Lingze's door, and the two talked for a long time, but only the two of them knew what they talked about.
When Uncle Xu came back after completing the negotiation, he was also confused to see the atmosphere at home.
After Zhao Chengmo threw away the clothes, he wanted to find Gu Lingze several times, but he hesitated again and again and finally did not take any action.
The next day, Gu Lingze asked Uncle Xu to bring him some of the best jars from the county when he came back, but he still didn't speak to Zhao Chengmo.
He and Mr. Xu were making cold noodles in the kitchen early in the morning. They kneaded the dough again, and after it had risen, they put it in water and washed it over and over again until clear water came out.
Leave the last bit of dough to be made into gluten later, and keep the water from washing the noodles for sedimentation.
After waiting for half an hour, pour out some of the water on the surface, leaving the sediment, take out the board and brush, brush a layer of oil on them first, then pour in the batter and heat it over water.
Cover the pot and simmer for a while, take it out and soak it in cold water to cool it down. After it becomes completely cold, tear it off and cut it into strips.
Mix with various seasonings, including pepper water, garlic, ginger water and chili oil, and serve with gluten and mung bean sprouts before eating.
Although both are sour and spicy, cold noodles are more refreshing and are even better when paired with roujiamo.
Gu Lingze said there is another kind of cold noodles made from rice. Although the taste is slightly different, it is more troublesome to make, so it is better to sell this kind first.
The cold noodles are sour and appetizing. Everyone thinks they are quite good after trying them. The process is also relatively simple. Xu Fulang learned it after just one try.
After dinner, someone brought a letter, which was received by Zhao Chengmo.
The messenger took out the sign in his arms and turned it sideways. Zhao Chengmo nodded, and the man left.
After reading the contents of the letter, Zhao Chengmo ran to Gu Lingze's door and knocked.
But after Gu Lingze opened the door and took the letter, he slammed the door in front of him, leaving Zhao Chengmo frustrated.
The letter was written by Gu Xiuyi. After reading its content, Gu Lingze's expression gradually became serious.
The General's Mansion.
Gu Feirui walked in angrily from outside, went to the table and poured himself a cup of tea.
Xie Qingwan, who was sitting there, saw him like this and asked him with a smile: "Who made you so angry?"
Gu Feirui put the cup heavily on the table and said unhappily, "It's still Gu Yangjia."
"He goes to the Third Prince's mansion all day long, which makes our family lose face. Now people are saying all kinds of things. They think that our General's Mansion is just trying to curry favor with the rich and powerful."
Xie Qingwan dismissed the attendants and sat next to Gu Feirui, patiently advising him, "Mother knows that you have been at odds with him since childhood, but he is engaged to the Third Prince, and others can't say anything."
"What kind of engagement? She'll just be a concubine when she enters the mansion. It's shameful." Gu Feirui didn't like Gu Yangjia before, and he likes him even less now.
"Mom, when will you pick up..."
"Have you forgotten what your father told you?" Xie Qingwan interrupted him before he could finish.
Gu Feirui had no choice but to hang his head dejectedly and responded reluctantly.
Xie Qingwan patted his back gently and said, "I know you feel bad. Mother felt the same way back then..."
At this point, Xie Qingwan's eyes suddenly turned red. Gu Feirui quickly put away his temper and said with guilt: "Mom, don't be sad. I won't mention this again in the future."
Xie Qingwan sighed deeply and said, "You've grown up now. Don't get angry over trivial matters in the future. It's not worth it."
Gu Feirui nodded quickly to indicate that he remembered it.
At this time, there was a noise outside the door, and Xie Qingwan's personal maid came in and said, "The third young master is back."
Xie Qingwan wiped her eyes with a handkerchief and sat back in the main seat. Gu Feirui also sat in a chair and drank tea as if nothing had happened.
As soon as Gu Yangjia came in, he saw Gu Feirui sitting there. He rolled his eyes at him and quickly walked to Xie Qingwan's side.
"Mom, I have a request. Can you agree to it?" After saying that, he affectionately took Xie Qingwan's arm.
Xie Qingwan turned her head to look at him, her expression remained unchanged from before, but a dark light flashed in her eyes.
"If you want anything, tell me."
Gu Yangjia rolled her eyes and said coquettishly, "Mom, I remember Dad hunted a white tiger before and got a skin. Can you give me that skin?"
"Yang Jia, when you get married, I'll put the white tiger skin in your wedding gift, okay?"
Gu Yangjia shook her arm, "Mom, I want it now."
Xie Qingwan smiled helplessly and asked, "Why are you so anxious to get that tiger skin? What do you want to do?"
Gu Yangjia lowered his head shyly, looking a little embarrassed.
"The third prince fell off his horse two years ago and injured his back. When the weather gets cold, he feels cold on his back. I want to make a cloak for him."
Gu Feirui snorted coldly and said, "It's already April and he still feels cold. I don't think he's injured, but he's just feeling weak."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yangjia immediately straightened up and glared at him with a frown.
"What's it got to do with you? I don't want your things."
"you……"
"Okay, you two always quarrel whenever you meet, and it gives me a headache." Xie Qingwan rubbed her forehead.
"Hirui, your brother was just looking for you, go ask him what he wants."
Gu Feirui was still not convinced, but when he saw Xie Qingwan shook her head slightly, he could only walk out in frustration.
"Cui Yu, go get the tiger skin from the master and give it to the third young master."
Gu Yangjia's face lit up, and he quickly said, "Mother is always good to me."
Gu Lingze has been busy for several days. No one knows what he is doing or whether he needs help. When asked, he just smiles and says nothing, leaving everyone confused.
Zhao Chengmo was even more anxious and didn't know how to start.
"Jinzi, go call your brother out for dinner." Aunt Tao set the table and wiped her hands.
Jinzi ran to Gu Lingze's house and was about to knock on the door when Gu Lingze came out holding two jars.
"Brother, what are you holding in your hand?" Jinzi looked at him in confusion.
"You'll know when you open it." Gu Lingze said mysteriously.
When he walked into the hall, he found that everyone was already seated, waiting for him.
Gu Lingze did not sit down immediately, but walked to Zhao Chengmo and put the jar in his hand.
"For you."
Zhao Chengmo held the jar and looked at him puzzledly.
Gu Lingze raised the corner of his lips and smiled slightly, saying to him, "Open it and take a look."
Zhao Chengmo placed the jar on the table, slapped the mud seal on it with one hand, opened the cork, and a mellow and rich aroma of wine wafted out of the jar. The fragrance was pervasive and became more fragrant over time.
"This is Liuxiang wine brewed using ancient methods. It's my birthday gift to you."
