delicious little cook

Chapter 1104
Cars came in and out at the gate of the construction site, Ma Hong parked the car across the street directly facing the gate of the construction site, Nan Yan helped the young lady out of the car, and the two casually strolled in and out of the shops along the street.

Jiang Yueyi's attire looks like that of a wealthy family's daughter, but she came here to go shopping, and immediately attracted many people to stop and look at her.

Jiang Yueyi, who is not used to being in close contact with common people in the market, was a little frightened when she saw this scene. She used to be hugged by her own people no matter where she went, but in order to leave a good impression on Bai Kou who was close to the common people, Jiang Yueyi resisted the discomfort in her heart, and walked around with a leisurely expression on her face.

Just as Jiang Yueyi passed by the door of a grain and oil grocery store, Nan Yan suddenly pulled her arm to signal her to look across the street.

"Bai Kou has come out!" Nan Yan whispered in the young lady's ear.

Jiang Yueyi immediately looked as if she was tired from walking, and rested her feet facing the street. Sure enough, she saw Bai Kou, who was wearing a riding outfit with arrow sleeves, walked out surrounded by several people. , then patted off the ashes on her body, and said a few more words, the person who accompanied her took her bamboo hat and went back to the gate together, while Bai Kou stood outside with her hands behind her back as if waiting for a carriage.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Yueyi immediately walked across the street with a look of surprise.

"Ah, isn't this Boss Bai? I'm here to see the progress of the construction site today?"

"It turned out to be Miss Jiang. It's a pleasure to meet you. Why did Miss Jiang come to Fenglinfang?"

Bai Kou exchanged warm greetings on her face, but also sneered in her heart. She walked out swaggeringly only after seeing Jiang Yueyi across the street from the gate, and even asked the carriage to pick her up from another place, just to give Jiang Yueyi time to talk.

It has been raining for the past few days and the noble daughters have not gone out to socialize. Jiang Yueyi blames God, but Hua Qingyu is very grateful. The information about Jiang Yueyi that was investigated in advance was sent to the big car dealership of the Ou family after Bai Kou asked. In the past few days, Bai Kou had to deal with the factory and the military department during the day, and at night he was at home trying to figure out how to deal with Miss Jiang.

Bai Kou has already figured out the reason why the capital salt merchants and representatives gathered together. They are all for the distribution of the salt ticket share in the capital next year. The five-year distribution is an important income of the national treasury. Jiang Yueyi's family had an accident a while ago. , I was divorced because of this, and there was no well-matched family in my hometown who was willing to marry her, so I came to the capital. I wanted to find a way to make a living for my family and find a marriage for myself to wash away the shame of being divorced. There are so many rich and powerful in the capital, young and unmarried The promising and powerful young master is none other than Gu Yun, and marrying him as a concubine is her best choice.

Bai Kou fully understands Jiang Yueyi's mental journey. She fell in love with Gu Yun because of her foresight. The only thing she didn't expect was that Bai Kou didn't want to share Gu Yun with others, and now the right to choose and decide is in Gu Yun's hands. Well, it's his business whether he takes a concubine or not. If Gu Yun chooses Jiang Yueyi, Bai Kou will just go far away. She won't cry, make trouble, hang herself, it's too ugly, and it will lose her dignity as a woman.

Gu Yun's way has been blocked. It is very difficult for the daughter of an unfamiliar foreign salt merchant to get close to Gu Yun who is an official, so she turned around and found herself, hoping to borrow the advantage of being a woman. Identity can be negotiated.

Two women plotting to share Gu Yun?

Bai Kou thought it was a joke.

Now that he knew Jiang Yueyi's plan in advance, Bai Kou would naturally not let her take advantage of him. If Gu Yun wanted to accept Jiang Yueyi as a concubine, he had to let the two meet first. Bai Kou was not interested in showing her virtuous and generous arrangements. They have an interview.

"In the past few days, I have heard about Mr. Bai's excellence. I think the wall of the construction site is quite interesting. I took advantage of the fine weather today, so I came here to take a look. I didn't expect to meet Mr. Bai by chance."

"Miss Jiang is too polite. I came to the street as soon as the autumn rain stopped. One autumn rain and one cold, and winter is about to begin. You must keep warm. The winter in the capital is very cold and humid. Take care of yourself."

"Mr. Xie Bai reminded me, I must keep it in mind."

Jiang Yueyi wrapped the cloak on her body, and was about to change the subject, but Bai Kou turned her eyes away and didn't look at her.

"Oh, my carriage is here. I still have things to do. Miss Jiang, please go at your own pace and leave."

Bai Kou didn't say anything polite about drinking tea when she was free, and casually slapped the dust on her body. Jiang Yueyi immediately hid her face and avoided it, frowning slightly. Noticing what she had to say, when the carriage stopped, he opened the door and got in the carriage and left, leaving the stunned Jiang Yueyi and servant behind.

"This Bai Kou!"

"Miss, let's get in the car first."

Nan Yan hurriedly helped her daughter back to the car. At the beginning, Ma Hong obviously saw the two talking and laughing happily, but his expression changed when he turned around, but it was not easy to ask more questions at this moment, so he shook his horsewhip and went home first.

Sitting in the car, Jiang Yueyi felt sullen. She was completely wrong, thinking that women would be easy to talk to when they met, but it turned out that Bai Kou was like a man, not feminine at all. No wonder he was able to show his face and run around outside all day, but Gu Yun didn't care about it. She, who will be a young lady in the future, doesn't care about being seen by strange men and women all over the street, how decent is she, if she can't get married in Xinzhou in this life, no one even wants to be a concubine.

"Nan Yan, do you think this Bai Kou is impolite or hostile to me? She left before the greetings were over. Does she understand social etiquette among women?"

"She's the head shopkeeper, so she's called Boss Bai. She shouldn't be a person who doesn't understand etiquette, right? If she's not polite, she won't be able to do such a big business." Nan Yan said after a moment of hesitation.

"That's right, no one in the mall is a human being. If Bai Kou doesn't understand this and she can't sit in the current seat, then this in turn means that she is hostile to me?!"

"Hostile, perhaps a little."

"How?! I didn't offend her!" Jiang Yueyi pursed her lips, her chest even more sullen.

"Miss is a well-known beauty in Xinzhou. Bai Kou is not as beautiful as you, and her manner is rude. Looking at her action of patting ashes just now, those who know her know that she is here to visit the construction site. She is rude, not particular, and not as pretty as the young lady, so she will inevitably feel a little bit jealous when she puts it on other women. The servant girl probably thinks the same way about Bai Kou, otherwise, how could she, a head shopkeeper, make herself so humiliated? This kind of dirty errands can't be handled by the subordinates, why should she come forward in person? Miss, do you think it makes sense?"

"Well~ I think it really makes sense~" Jiang Yueyi was coaxed by Nan Yan, and she tapped her forehead, "Good girl, you are the only one who can talk."

"It's the servant girl's duty to share her worries."

Nan Yan smiled, and her face became more submissive. In her heart, it would be even worse if the master is not good at serving others. If the young lady can marry Gu Shizi, she will have a good life, so she will do her best to help the young lady realize her wish.
