MTL - On the Day the Scumbag Got Married, I Lay Flat and Became His Sister-in-law-Chapter 175 She is also Zhou Mu's servant
Chapter 175 She is also Zhou Mu's servant
After Zhou Mu took his seat, he never took his eyes off Gu Xiyan's face.
He found that today's Gu Xiyan is different from ever before, she looks energetic and lively. In the past, this girl gave him the impression of a mature girl, like a lake when she was quiet, but today she has a special air.
He found more and more that he didn't know Gu Xiyan that well, and she might have a lot of secrets.
Gu Xiyan was chatting and laughing with Su Mei in a low voice, and when she raised her head, she met Zhou Mu's dark eyes.
It was only then that she remembered that her fiancé-in-law was also there, and she got carried away with complacency.
At this time, Wu Tong announced the official start of the auction, and her attention was diverted in an instant.
Wu Tong brought out the first dish, before he lifted the lid, he raised his voice: "This dish is called 'One Leg'..."
Before he finished speaking, everyone laughed.
When Wu Tong lifted the cover and smelled the aroma of the vegetables, all of his smiles were suppressed, and everyone wanted to stick their eyes to the vegetables.
"The raw material of this 'one leg' dish is deboned lamb leg, served with the freshest crucian carp. After 38 procedures, the process took four hours to make this delicious dish..."
Before Wu Tong finished speaking, there was a commotion downstairs.
Gu Xiyan was seated by the window. She looked over and saw King Zhao, Princess Baohe, and Princess Yongjia all came, arguing to go upstairs.
When she saw King Zhao, her heart beat faster.
In this gourmet auction, she felt that the most important person should be King Zhao. Zhao Wang usually does not do business properly, but he is a glutton for delicious food.
Emperor Chengde never regarded King Zhao as the heir to the throne, but he never restricted King Zhao when it came to food and clothing. King Zhao was famous throughout the capital for his generous spending.
It can be said that the main target of her gourmet auction this time is King Zhao.
She was disappointed that she hadn't seen King Zhao before, and planned to think of a way to lure King Zhao to show up tomorrow. She didn't want King Zhao to be late, but not absent.
What surprised her the most was that King Zhao also brought Princess Baohe and Princess Yongjia, and these two nobles also brought her money.
These three nobles were all unruly people, so they left their money and went up to the second floor.
Wu Tong was about to step forward to chase away people, but Gu Xiyan raised her voice: "Your Highness, princess, would you like to sit by my side?!"
Princess Yongjia was about to go over when she saw Gu Xiyan, but because Zhou Mu's face was so eye-catching, she immediately caught her eyes.
Her heart was beating fast, and she took Bao and Princess to Zhou Mu's table without hesitation.
Gu Xiyan's heartbeat slowed down half a beat when she saw this scene.
Zhou Mu had countless admirers in his previous life. If you want to find someone who impresses you, Princess Yongjia is one.
It's just that Zhou Mu didn't give any woman a chance to get close to her from the beginning to the end, so that after her rebirth, she forgot that Princess Yongjia was also Zhou Mu's servant.
Bao and Princess happened to be interested in Xu Yanqing, while Princess Yongjia was interested in Zhou Mu, and they hit it off right away.
Zhao Wang has always been idle, and when he learned that Jixianglou held a food festival, he rushed to Jixianglou.
Seeing Princess Yongjia staring at Zhou Mu, Liu Chaoyan immediately gloated and said, "Eldest sister, you have to be more careful. Princess Yongjia has a crush on Master Zhou, and she may poach elder sister's corner at any time. At that time, eldest sister will be divorced again. I really can't get married in this life."
"Sister, you should worry about yourself. You haven't gotten married yet, the King of Qin has raised an outer room, and there are quite a few common rooms. After my sister gets married, I don't know how lively the backyard of the palace will be." Gu Xiyan asked with a light smile .
As for Zhou Mu, she really wasn't worried at all.
Even if there are ten more princesses from Yongjia, it is impossible for Zhou Mu to like her, and Zhou Mu is definitely not Zhou Xing, she has absolute confidence in Zhou Mu.
"Second sister's words are not pleasant, but they are the truth. Big sister, don't take second sister's kindness as a donkey." Liu Junyan spoke for Liu Chaoyan as a matter of course.
Gu Xiyan didn't waste any more words.
She felt that it would be more practical to empty all the money in the pockets of the Liu family sisters later.
Seeing that Gu Xiyan refused to accept the move, the sisters of the Liu family thought that Gu Xiyan was afraid.
Princess Yongjia talked to Zhou Mu from time to time, but Zhou Mu didn't give Princess Yongjia a wink, let alone answer the conversation, which made Princess Yongjia extremely ashamed.
She was about to have a seizure when Wu Tong had already started auctioning off the first dish.
Gu Xiyan held up a sign without hesitation: "Five hundred taels!"
When she made the price, the audience was in an uproar.
Gu Xiyan is simply not giving others a way out. Once the asking price is so high, who dares to raise the price easily?
Zhou Mu's gaze was also fixed on Gu Xiyan's face, he knew this girl's temper, she was never such a flamboyant person, unless she was interested in this dish, or she had other purposes.
Since this is the case, he will have to help her raise the price later and give her a helping hand.
As for yellow and white things like gold and silver, he has never been short of them.
Others are still hesitating, but Liu Huiyan is already in a hurry, because Zhou Mu is also at the scene, and she needs Zhou Mu to impress her.
At that moment, she raised the price without hesitation: "Six hundred taels!"
She just yelled out, and Zhou Mu looked over. It was just a light glance, but it made her feel elated, making her even more sure that she was right.
"Eight hundred taels!" Gu Xiyan raised the price.
Liu Huiyan couldn't hold back the smile on her face.
Gu Xiyan dared to bid indiscriminately because she borrowed five thousand taels of silver from her grandmother. She only had one thousand taels on her body, and she had spent the entrance fee before. How did she come to bid for so much money?
But losing to Gu Xiyan in front of Zhou Mu, she was really not happy.
She whispered to Liu Meiyan: "Later, my sister will lend me some money, I want to take a picture of this dish."
No one can lose to Gu Xiyan, she thought so.
Yu Miyan quietly looked at her purse. She only brought five hundred taels in total, so she was the poorest among the sisters.
"One thousand taels!" Liu Huiyan raised a sign to increase the price.
Seeing this scene from a distance, Su Ho shook his head and sneered: "The sisters of the Liu family are all stupid and rich."
Is the most delicious dish worth spending so much money to photograph? No brains.
"Sisters from the Liu family are indeed stupid, but Miss Gu is different." It was Xu Yanqing who spoke, and Su Ho was sitting at the adjacent table.
He felt that Gu Xiyan's appearance of raising the price was particularly cool.
Zhou Mu originally wanted to help Gu Xiyan, but seeing Liu Huiyan meddling, he suddenly felt that since it was between the sisters of the Liu family and this girl, it would be better for the girl to resolve it by herself.
Later, if he likes any dish, he can buy it at a high price and give it to that girl to taste.
"What's the difference? They're just as stupid!" Bao and Princess suddenly held up a sign and said, "Five thousand taels!"
Su Ho almost spit out the tea in his mouth when he heard the words.
Just said that the sisters of the Liu family are stupid and have a lot of money, here comes another stupid one. She is a princess, so she really has so much money that she has nowhere to spend it.
