Lin Chuxia nodded: "Yes."
After all, he was a guest of their manor. If something happened to a guest on their manor, no matter what the cause was, they would ultimately have to take responsibility.
Gu Yuheng was so angry at her matter-of-fact answer that his liver ached.
"Isn't the reason I'm like this because of you?" Gu Yuheng said, his face ashen. "Because of me?" Lin Chuxia watched him walk past her with a gloomy expression, feeling that this man was truly unreasonable.
He was the one who indulged in his gluttony, eating too much barbecued and fried food and getting a sore throat, but now he's blaming her, the one who cooked it?
Hmph! They're really biting the hand that feeds them!
Next time, even if she feeds the dog the food she makes, she will absolutely not give it to this person!
...
After that, Gu Yuheng had several more nosebleeds due to "internal heat," but they were all within a controllable range.
However, Gu Jiu found it strange: "Third Master, you haven't been eating any high-calorie foods lately, and we've been eating cooling foods every day, so why are you still getting a sore throat?"
Why?
He got a sore throat because he couldn't eat those "high-calorie foods".
Gu Yuheng did not respond. He simply glanced up at the "scenery" opposite him before quickly lowering his head again and focusing his attention on the documents in front of him.
He probably has a masochistic streak; he knows that staying here might make him uncomfortable, but he just likes to come here to suffer.
On his table was a bowl of chilled mung bean soup, which looked rather unappetizing.
Of course, this bowl of mung bean soup was not made by Lin Chuxia, but by Gu Jiu, who was worried about her master's health.
Back then, Lin Chuxia decided to stop feeding Gu Yuheng the food she made, and she really didn't—Gu Yuheng had offended her several times before, and she was determined to settle both old and new scores.
So when Gu Jiu came to her, begging her to cook some dishes to cool off his master, Lin Chuxia simply tossed him a large bag of "Banlangen granules" without any expression.
"Here, take this home and soak it in water to drink; the effect will be the same."
Gu Jiu: "..."
Seeing that he wouldn't leave, Lin Chuxia said, "If you don't want this, there's nothing I can do." Anyway, she wasn't going to make anything for that lunatic to eat.
Thinking it over, Lin Chuxia pointed to the ingredients on the other side, "There are many cooling ingredients here, you can use them as you like, it won't cost you or your servants. Anyway, if you want to eat, you can cook for yourselves, I won't help you."
Gu Jiu said with a wry smile, "Miss Chu Xia, the problem is I don't know how."
"Alright, I'll teach you the simplest way, I guarantee you won't fail. See these mung beans? Wash them, put them in water, and simmer until the beans are soft. Then add sugar to taste. As for other complicated methods, I won't teach you." This is to prevent these two from not knowing food pairings and getting sick from eating and drinking the wrong things, only to blame her later.
Therefore, the bowl of unappealing mung bean soup on Gu Yuheng's table was made by Gu Jiu.
The bowl of mung bean soup was already half-finished. Gu Yuheng picked up the porcelain bowl, ready to finish the rest, when out of the corner of his eye, he inadvertently saw Gu Jiu carefully holding a lotus leaf outside the pavilion, eating something with a very contented expression on her face.
Gu Yuheng's face instantly darkened.
