37. Gathering in the Hall of Rebirth [1](1/2)
The friendship between girls was somewhat incomprehensible to Xiang Wan. When they came down from the mountain road, Keqing and Hutao became familiar with each other and chatted about various strange topics. Xiang Wan followed the two beauties and listened quietly.
Whenever Hutao talked about Emperor Yanshen, Keqing would argue endlessly with her. The two of them would express their opinions, and for a while it was difficult to tell the winner.
Keqing was about to speak and continue to defend the emperor, but Hutao changed the subject.
"Whatever you want to eat, just tell me."
Hutao patted her small chest and said confidently to Keqing: "My husband can cook everything, and it tastes great!"
"He is your husband...?"
Ke Qing was very surprised. She looked at Hu Tao's serious expression and looked at Xiang Wan behind her. Although she had only had brief contact with Hu Tao for a little time, Ke Qing was sure that the rumored Hu Tao was not as experienced as her.
One ten thousandth of a walnut, regardless of knowledge, magnanimity or those seemingly unconstrained ideas.
And she married this ordinary person behind her?
"We just got married and got the certificate today~"
With that said, Hutao let go of Keqing's hand and ran to Xiang Wan, holding Xiang Wan's arm with a sweet look on her face. Xiang Wan also touched her head affectionately.
"Honey, are you bored all the way?"
"It's interesting to hear you chatting, so it's not boring."
A flash of disappointment flashed across Hu Taoqiao's face.
"Yeah?"
Holding Hu Tao's shoulders, Xiang Wan pursed her lips and whispered in Hu Tao's ear in an extremely aggrieved voice, "I feel a little uncomfortable just seeing you so close."
"puff--"
"Girl, are you jealous too?"
"No?"
"Then I'll go back and make it up to you, right?"
"Okay~"
Keqing looked at the two of them quietly from the side.
"Congratulations."
Hearing Keqing's blessing, the two of them looked at each other, smiled, clasped their fingers, and then replied in unison: "Thank you~"
"Keqing, what do you want to eat?"
"You can mention anything no matter what~"
"Then... golden shrimp balls..."
Keqing said slightly hesitantly: "Is it okay...?"
"no problem."
Hall of Rebirth.
In the kitchen.
Xiang Wan took out various utensils from the king's treasure house, as well as all the ingredients needed to make golden shrimp balls.
Clean the fresh shrimps, remove the heads and tails, remove the shrimp threads, and carefully place them on an empty plate.
Xiang Wan's eyes were very focused and his hands were very steady.
Ke Qing, who was not far away, watched quietly and nodded slightly. She understood very well what kind of expression a person would show when doing something they like.
There is no doubt that Xiang Wan likes cooking.
I just don't know how to do it.
"If you are curious about how my husband makes golden shrimp balls, I allow you to take a closer look~"
Keqing's eyes lit up and she confirmed: "Is it really possible?"
"sure!"
Qing Qing came quietly behind Xiang Wan, who was washing potatoes. Her eyes fell on the dishes containing shrimps. In just a short while, Xiang Wan had already processed dozens of shrimps and started marinating them to remove the smell.
The movement is quite fast, Ke Qing thought.
While Keqing was thinking, Xiang Wan showed her his superb sword skills again, so fast that even Keqing's eyesight could not keep up.
It felt like the whole potato turned into thin slices in just a blink of an eye, and then in another blink of an eye, the potatoes turned from thin slices into thin threads.
He glanced slightly sideways, looking at Xiang Wan's face. He didn't look big, but his skills looked like those of a veteran who had been practicing for decades. Hu Tao's husband looked very capable indeed.
Perhaps the task of banquet can be handed over to Xiang Wan in the future.
Hutao in the distance was lying on the table, thinking about how to tease Keqing later.
With a casual glance, he caught the change in Ke Qing's demeanor. Suddenly his body was shaken. With Hu Tao's unconstrained thinking, he quickly imagined that something bad was going to happen.
Recalling Xiang Wan's crazy look when he saw Ke Qing's long black stocking legs in the morning, Hu Tao felt something was wrong and quickly came to Ke Qing's side, hugged Ke Qing's hand, and pulled her back to her seat.
.
"What's wrong?"
Ke Qing stood up and seemed to want to go over to see how Xiang Wan made the golden shrimp balls, but Hu Tao grabbed her.
“My husband said oil fumes are bad for the skin!”
"You are Yuheng Keqing, you can't go to work covered in oil fumes, right?"
"Um……"
Keqing nodded in confusion, her slightly disappointed expression captured by Hu Tao.
We must never give them another chance to be alone!
His eyes fell on Keqing's chest, then looked at his own, absolutely not!
What he did just now was simply terrible. He actually took the initiative to let Ke Qing watch Xiang Wan cook at close range.
Xiang Wan is very handsome, and he is no less handsome than Mr. Zhongli. His focused and gentle eyes while cooking are particularly attractive. In Hu Tao's eyes, his whole body is emitting endless light, and Ke Qing is also very attracted to her.
normal.
So she suddenly didn't want to show Xiang Wan to Keqing. She could only see Xiang Wan like this, it was exclusive to her.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Hutao shook his head and quickly recovered his smile.
If Qi Qi were here, she would definitely point at Hu Tao's small breasts and say truthfully: "Fake smile, disgusting."
Xiang Wan, who had been chopping vegetables carefully before, didn't notice Keqing coming at all. As soon as he raised his head after cutting the potatoes, he saw Hutao and Keqing holding hands and talking intimately.
This picture was beautiful. He smiled softly, but the movements of his hands sped up.
Xiang Wan, who was about to speed up again, thought about what Hu Tao said to Ke Qing confidently while patting her small chest, and her heart slowly calmed down again.
Hutao praised himself so much in front of Keqing and couldn't let her embarrass herself in front of Keqing, so he wanted to make perfect golden shrimp balls.
Soon, Xiang Wan made the golden shrimp balls, and when the plating was finished, it was as if a beautiful golden plum blossom had fallen on the jade plate.
Carefully bringing it out of the kitchen, Xiang Wan placed the plate on the table, stretched out his hand and said, "Try it."
Hutao moved the plate in front of Keqing, smiled and said, "How is it? Does it make you appetizing just by looking at it?"
Keqing nodded, picked up the golden shrimp ball in the center and put it into her mouth
Hutao came up to Keqing and giggled, her eyes shining with light, as beautiful as the starry sky.
"How is it? Is it delicious?"
Keqing nodded.
"I'll just say it!"
The joy on Hu Tao's face couldn't be concealed at all, as if she was proud of making this dish.
Ke Qing looked at Xiang Wan with a little more admiration. This requires a lot of time to practice, and Xiang Wan doesn't look very old, so he must have started doing it since he was a child. At that time, he might not be as tall as Zao Dou.
Originally boasting about walnuts, Ke Qing still had a feeling of beauty in the eye of the beholder. After actually tasting it, Ke Qing felt comfortable all over, and all the stress accumulated after a busy morning seemed to be swept away.
.
She was convinced that Hu Tao was not exaggerating, but that Xiang Wan was really good at it, and was no worse than Xinyue Xuan.
The presentation is even more exquisite, like a work of art.
Hutao looked at Keqing alertly, then smiled and said, "Then you eat another one."
Keeping her gaze fixed on Ke Qing's face, she noticed that Qing's eyes were always on Xiang Wan even when she was eating.
This is very bad.
Her brain was running rapidly, but it was full of all kinds of strange ideas, and there was no reliable idea at all. After thinking for a long time, she felt that she could only spend this time with Ke Qing, so that they would have no time to be alone.
"How about you eat all these?"
