Marrying Mrs. Hou and making a living by relying on her circle of food friends

Chapter 11 Shredded Sweet Potato
On this day, Gu Yunyue was still tinkering in the kitchen on how to combine ancient dishes with modern tastes. However, conditions were limited, and it was difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. She, a 21st century food blogger, also found it difficult to start.

Gu Yunyue frowned in distress as she looked at the plate arrangement that never satisfied her.

She played with the delicate porcelain plate with a peony base, and then thought that Su Qilin was a marquis after all, so he should be able to get in touch with people in the palace. Maybe he would know what the Thirteenth Prince liked to eat and what his taste was.

Gu Yunyue clapped her hands, feeling happy about her decision.However, Su Qilin's mouth is not so easy to pry open.However, the experimental shredded sweet potato she made today might come in handy in bribing Su Qilin.

"Guo'er, come on, come on, put this plate of shredded sweet potatoes on the plate, and let's go visit the Marquis." Gu Yunyue laughed and said to Guo'er excitedly.

Guo'er saw Gu Yunyue thinking deeply and smiling, as if he was crazy, and was puzzled.Speaking of Mr. Marquis, their current situation is very embarrassing.She was kept in the dark as a dowry girl, and the person in front of her who seemed to be out of her mind was a fake Lu Yunlan and a fake Mrs. Hou.The two of them should show up less often with the Marquis and consciously avoid suspicion.This guy is good, he still has to go up.

However, Guoer has an unfounded trust in Gu Yunyue. After all, Gu Yunyue really has two skills in cooking. With his novel dishes and unique taste, he really coaxed the Marquis. Live, at least for a while now, their lives are saved.

So Guo'er found a food box and put the shredded sweet potatoes in it under Gu Yunyue's watchful eyes.Anyway, this dessert is really good, the fruit is smacking on your lips, but it’s a bit sticky on your teeth.

On the way to Su Qilin Academy, Gu Yunyue walked so fast that he almost wanted to fly.

"Madam, Madam, wait for me. Why are you in such a hurry?" Guo'er carefully carried the food box and followed Gu Yunyue closely. Seeing Gu Yunyue walking without stopping, Guo'er shouted hurriedly.

"Guo'er, you have to hurry up." Gu Yunyue hurried forward, but suddenly turned around and said, "I'd better take it. This candied sweet potato won't taste good when it's cold."

Gu Yunyue rushed back to Guo'er and took the food box away from Guo'er as she spoke. "This dish for Mr. Hou to try is related to my life."

Guoer looked at Gu Yunyue with a serious look, and when he heard something about his life, he suddenly became excited and said, "Okay, okay, madam, let's go quickly. I'll just take the food box."

Although Guo'er always had objections to Gu Yunyue in the first few days after traveling through time, Gu Yunyue was noncommittal. As Lu Yunlan's maid, it was normal for Guo'er to be hostile to her, a stranger.After all, Lu Yunlan also involved Guo'er, a person who had little ability to resist fate. Once the matter of the substitute marriage was exposed, Guo'er and Gu Yunyue would inevitably die.After slowly understanding this matter, Guo'er's view of Gu Yunyue changed a lot. The two were tied together as grasshoppers on a rope.Guoer supported Gu Yunyue and spared no effort in trying to please He Anhou, who could save their lives at this moment.

Unfortunately, before they could enter the study room, the two of them were stopped by the guards.

"Just report it. Can't we just wait here?" Guo'er muttered angrily when she saw the arrogant look of the guard. She hugged the food box angrily, "I've delayed the Marquis's sweets, can you?" Can you afford it?"

The guard wanted to speak again, but was blocked by Su Qilin who came out of the room, "Why are you here?"

Gu Yunyue said at the right time: "Master Hou, I made sweets in the kitchen today and brought them to Master Hou to try." Gu Yunyue winked playfully, "New dishes."

Seeing Gu Yunyue's eyes as cunning as a little fox, Su Qilin couldn't help but laugh. A smile appeared inadvertently from the corners of his lips, and he followed Gu Yunyue's words and said, "Okay, come in."

Gu Yunyue quickly followed the words and slipped into the study. She eagerly took out the shredded sweet potato and put it on the desk. Then she raised her head and looked at the study.

It was so big that Gu Yunyue's first reaction was to be amazed.This study room is as big as the 120-square-meter apartment she lived in in modern times, and that's not counting the side hall.There are two plaques hanging on the wall behind the main seat. The larger one reads "Gaotangmingjing" and the smaller one reads "loyalty". A pair of long couplets scrawled in ink hang on both sides of the plaque. The scrawled ancient text reads, Gu Yun Yue didn't recognize what was written.

The tables and chairs are all made of the best wood. Even if Gu Yunyue doesn't know the goods, he can tell that these furniture are valuable.The translucent color and perfect curvature are completely unmatched by her in the high-end furniture market.Not far from the desk stands a square shelf about the height of a person. Each grid has a different size and is divided into corresponding sizes according to the size of the items placed.

Before Gu Yunyue could take a closer look at what was written on the shelf, Su Qilin's voice suddenly sounded, "What did Mrs. Lu bring today?"

Madam Lu?
Oh, yes, yes, he is calling her.Gu Yunyue reacted for a while before remembering that he had indeed called her.Although she is Gu Yunyue, she is still wearing Lu Yunlan's persona.

But even so, Su Qilin was too unusual today, calling her a "lady" for no reason.Gu Yunyue frowned, suppressed the doubts in her heart, and persuaded herself that the evil star was probably in a good mood today.She cleared her throat and said with a smile: "This is called sweet potato. I wonder if Mr. Hou has heard of it before?"

Su Qilin raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Not really."

"Then, Lord Marquis, try it quickly. How does it taste?" Gu Yunyue's eyes were bright and she urged: "It won't taste good when it's cold."

The time spent on the road, plus the time wasted by being stopped by the guards, Gu Yunyue hoped that the shredded sweet potato could still be shredded. Since she had never eaten it, she wanted to give Su Qilin a little shock.

Su Qilin carefully picked up a piece and found that the sweet potato was connected by something that seemed to be sugar, and it took some effort to separate it.

It was quite novel. Su Qilin put it into his mouth and nodded appreciatively. It was still the sweet taste he always liked.Not bad.

However, did Gu Yunyue really just want to give him a new product to try today?
Su Qilin turned around and saw Gu Yunyue snickering as if his plan had succeeded. He put down his chopsticks and said, "Tell me, what can you ask me for?"

"How could it be? Am I such an opportunistic person in the Marquis' place?" Gu Yunyue came up with a smile and asked in a serious manner, "But, doesn't it taste good?"

"The taste is very good," Su Qilin would not lie in this regard, and there was no need. "If you have anything to say, just tell me."

Gu Yunyue saw that Su Qilin seemed to be impatient, and said with a smile: "Master Hou is such a cheerful person. I really want to ask Master Hou for advice on something."

"It can be said that you are short-tongued and soft-handed. For the sake of this sweet potato, why don't you tell me what the Thirteenth Prince's taste preferences are, what are his favorite dishes, etc." Gu Yunyue While looking at Su Qilin's face, he asked, "This way I can give you the right medicine, right? Winning the first prize in one fell swoop will show Mr. Hou's face."

Gu Yunyue was still smiling, but she didn't expect to be poured cold water on her, "I don't know."

Su Qilin answered so crisply that Gu Yunyue's smile fell straight away.

That's too stingy. It's been suggested that this person is soft-spoken, but he still responded mercilessly.Even if I told myself, what could I do? I still deliberately hid it.

Gu Yunyue didn't want to give up like this.

"The Marquis also thinks of the dessert I specially made," Gu Yunyue was about to change tactics, using emotion and reason, "Just reveal it, just reveal it a little bit."

"Do I need to lie to you?" Su Qilin asked.

Who knows what you are thinking! Gu Yunyue was going crazy and sighed in frustration.

However, there was really no need for Su Qilin to deceive her in this regard and deliberately sell things off.

Thinking of this, the corners of Gu Yunyue's mouth completely drooped.Trying to prescribe the right medicine is no longer feasible, so we have to think of another way.

After being disappointed, Gu Yunyue cheered up again. She nodded and accepted the reality. "Well, there is really no need for the Marquis to deceive me. Then I will find another way." Gu Yunyue raised his arm and made a cheering gesture.
Su Qilin watched Gu Yunyue suddenly raise his arm strangely. Monk Zhang Er was confused, but he just let her go. Ever since this woman appeared next to him, she always said some strange things, and there was always something unexpected. behavior.

Gu Yunyue thought that she had limited inspiration when she stayed in the Hou Mansion, so she decided to take Guoer out of the house tomorrow to see if she could find inspiration for developing new dishes.
