Chapter 301 Accompanying Officials
Since the "little girl" became a little girl, her temper has become a few degrees worse, and she dislikes everyone except Xu Mengxiao.

He also became a little more clingy to her, almost inseparable from her front and back.

As a result, everyone thought that "Little Flower" was her and Lu He's child, and praised her all the time when they saw her, but they always mentioned it in a subtle way, saying that she didn't look much like her or Lu He.

Then he laughed and said that Xiaohua took advantage of the two of them and grew up... and then developed his own characteristics.

Xu Mengxiao twitched her lips every time and did not explain. Only Xiaobao kept repeating angrily, "Sister is not my mother, she is still young, she is my sister!"

Look at this little mouth, who doesn’t like it?

Even though he was furry, he looked like a kitten with explosive hair, which helped Xu Mengxiao gain a lot of favor. This is how Mr. Fu, who talks so horribly, was bribed.

Along the way, there were some objections and minor conflicts, but he also helped them, suppressing some people with ulterior motives, so that Xu Mengxiao and his party could have a pleasant journey.

Three chefs from Taoyuan Township were also granted permission on the ship to continue training in cooking skills.

Of course, the benefits are also obvious. Several accompanying officials and envoys can eat Taoyuan Township-style meals for free.

After eating it, they were full of praise and asked them to continue cooking. The other cooks were completely disdainful.

"Lunch is ready, come and eat." Xu Mengxiao put down the food.

But at this moment, the hull of the ship hit something unknown and suddenly shook violently!
The expression of the man who had been sitting like a mountain changed. He stood up almost instinctively, supported her waist, and took the food in her hand with his other hand.

He turned around and asked, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay." Xu Mengxiao didn't even care. If she hadn't been busy pulling Xiaobao just now, she wouldn't even spill the vegetable soup.

But there was someone who cared more than her, and was considerate in every detail.

Song Jiuxun thought, he had to take back what he just said. Does this mean he doesn't care?I'm afraid I'll have to frown even if I sneeze.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, let me have a meal." He couldn't stand it anymore.

Xu Mengxiao didn't know that he was here. This Song Gao was really more attached to her husband than she was, so she asked someone to bring more food.

"This Lin Gui's cooking skills are indeed good, and he has a slight chance of winning, but if he wants to go up against Master Leng..." He shook his head and commented unceremoniously, "It's difficult!"

Then he pointed at Xu Mengxiao, "But since you, the master, come on stage in person, the result is hard to say."

"I have never seen a woman in charge of royal chefs."

Lu He scolded disapprovingly, "Don't talk nonsense!"

"I don't want to participate yet. I'm the kind of person who has a hard life. Not to mention the emperor, even the Jade Emperor doesn't want me to cook for him every day!"

"Ha!" Song Jiu was shocked by her, but he didn't feel disgusted at all. He only praised her for being brave and didn't want her head anymore.

Because of their attitude, Xu Mengxiao was able to guess some things.

"Shut up." Lu He felt displeased with him. Forget about Duo Xiaobao, the troublesome little green tea, Song Gao was also a talker.

Even if he didn't speak, everyone thought he was extremely calm and charming. Once he spoke, the halo would fall off, which was a bit annoying, Xu Mengxiao thought in her heart.

"I'm not participating because I'm afraid that the person will fall in love with my cooking skills. If he forces me like he did Master Leng, I'm a humble person and a powerless civilian. If I don't accept it, I'm afraid my life will be at risk!"

Song Jiu felt more and more that she was different from ordinary women. He wanted to ask more questions to see what she thought, but was turned away by his friend's unfriendly look.

"I can't even shut your mouth when I eat!" "My husband, please be polite, I am also a county magistrate after all."

Song Jiu smiled bitterly. The couple were singing along, so did they use him as a flirting tool?
This was the last meal on the ship. In the evening, their ship docked at the largest dock in Huizhou.

Seeing the constant flow of cargo and passengers coming from north to south, Xu Mengxiao realized that the wharf in Yunxi Town was not called a wharf at all. It was not even comparable to the nail cap of a little finger!
This shows the prosperity of Huizhou.

The ears are filled with all kinds of shouts and shouts, and the passers-by are full of faces, and you can also get a glimpse of how well-off some people here are living.

At this point, Xu Mengxiao officially ended their seven-day journey, and there were less than five days left before the Royal Chef Competition.

The Luocheng government arranged a resting place, but they didn't pay much attention to it.

After all, he is a low-level cook. In comparison, Luo City is already very polite. Unlike other places, they let their cooks make their own arrangements, and the officials behave in a condescending manner.

Perhaps Mengxiao and the others still couldn't stand such a living environment, so they split up with them. Zhang Linjiang had already arranged a better place for them.

Normally, they couldn't leave on their own. If something went wrong, wouldn't it affect their reputation in Luo City?
But Xu Mengxiao got along well with them on the ship, and several officials also trusted Taoyuan Township to handle affairs, so they waved and let them leave.

Just tell them where they are staying, in case you can't find them at the critical moment.

The other cooks could only look at Xu Mengxiao and others with envy, especially those individual cooks who had no money to stay in a better inn even if they were given a chance.

Being a cook by oneself has never meant much for a future, and where can one find the capital to be as glamorous as they are from beginning to end?

But this time it's different. As long as you can defeat others and be seen by that person, let alone yourself, the entire family tree can be turned around!

"Let's go, get ready. I don't believe those restaurants are really great, but they are just more famous than us."

"Yes, think about that person who has never tasted any delicacies from the mountains and seas. Sometimes you just need to make some simple meals to feel special."

Here, Xu Mengxiao and his party came to a simple and clean empty house, which was also one of Zhang Linjiang's private properties.

However, everything has been arranged long ago, including servants, maids, and responsible housekeepers, many of whom Zhang Linjiang transferred from his own home.

"The bosses, the young master and the young lady have been traveling all the way. We have boiled hot water and prepared meals. Please take advantage of it!"

The dinner was prepared very lightly, probably because they were afraid that they would not be used to it. It was porridge and pastries. It looked simple, but it was more meticulous than the ones in Luocheng. The aroma lingered in your mouth for a long time.

Looking out the window at the fragrant begonias, blooming flowers, verandahs and ancient pavilions, Xu Mengxiao instantly felt like living the life of a young lady from a noble family.

She thought so and joked about it.

Lu He asked her, "Do you like this kind of life?"

"No matter what kind of life you have, it is interesting to experience it. What's more, if you haven't experienced it, how can you know which one is better and make a choice?"

Lu He nodded in approval, "That makes sense."

"But I am not pursuing enjoyment. I am just a human being. I must have the motivation to strive upward."

In contrast, Xu Mengxiao prefers this kind of happiness that she has worked hard for, which is full of reality, than dressing up as a wealthy lady and living a privileged life.

And this kind of confidence made her fearless about Lu He's identity.

Lu He stared at her dazzling and confident look, remained silent for a breath, and finally dragged her onto the bed...and kissed her hard!
