Rebirth: Bringing a Husband to a Well-off Society

Chapter 319 Eating
When Gu Xicheng went out with the basin, everyone stood there and did not dare to move, let alone take the basin in his hand.

A few people just watched him coming like this, and everyone stood upright. This Zhizhou lord is no better than Mrs. Zhizhou. It's okay to be difficult to talk, and he has a cold face, which is scary. They dare not provoke him. He is not happy, if he loses his temper, who can bear it.

Ji Tongpan shrank himself into a corner even more, and now he is lucky that this adult can let him go, he can't foolishly go to people to make fun of him.

Gu Xicheng glanced around with the corners of his eyes, seeing everyone behaved like this, he was slightly satisfied in his heart, it was not bad, at least he was afraid of her.

He didn't want to be close to the people, he just did his duty, he didn't need to get close to them, his Lu'er was giving them face by treating them like that.

He asked Ji Tongpan to find someone to come, but he didn't ask Ji Tongpan to come here. There are many people in Huai'an Mansion who want to eat now.

Gu Xicheng put the basin on the table, made it himself, and waited for Shen Lu to come over. It is indeed easier for Shen Lu to come forward for some things than talking to him.

When Shen Lu walked into the dining room with a bowl, there were more than a dozen people standing on the other side, while Gu Xicheng was sitting at the table with his lips pursed, neither of them spoke, it was extremely quiet, the air in the dining room seemed to condense.

Shen Lu walked to Gu Xicheng's side, put the bowl on the table, and said with a smile: "What's the matter, all of you, you stand still and don't speak, just like logs."

When the cook just got up this morning, she had some conversations with Shen Lu in the kitchen, and she felt that Shen Lu was easy to talk to, and since Shen Lu asked questions, they didn't answer, which was not appropriate.

The cook smiled and said: "Madam didn't give orders, and we didn't know what to do. After we made up our minds, we decided to wait here. Madam will definitely call us if there is anything to do."

Shen Lu smiled and said: "Thank you, sisters-in-law, everyone hasn't eaten yet, and I also cooked a lot of brown rice and sweet potato porridge today. If you don't mind, let's eat together."

After Shen Lu finished speaking, she filled a bowl for herself and Gu Xicheng, put down the spoons and said, "If you still have doubts, you can wait until my husband and I finish eating. After all, this traditional concept is not too late. It can't be eliminated in just one or two sentences, Shen Lu understands everyone's scruples."

As soon as Shen Lu finished speaking, Gu Xicheng directly brought a bowl to drink. Shen Lu knew that he didn't like sweets, and he wouldn't feel comfortable if he was asked to drink it in big gulps, so he specially brought him a small spoon.

Shen Lu handed it to Gu Xicheng and said, "You don't like sweet drinks, so don't force yourself. Use a spoon and try to drink some. If you really don't like it, just give it to me."

Gu Xicheng took the spoon and said with a smile: "It's okay, I can drink everything you cook, and your cooking skills are so good."

That's right, can cooking skills be bad? The smell filled the entire dining room. These people didn't eat, and they were almost swallowed by the smell.

No matter there are still people who have no scruples, anyway, Ji Tongpan was the first one to come over and said with a smile: "Madam, I don't mind if you have the cheek to eat a bowl of porridge."

Shen Lu swallowed the porridge in her mouth, and then responded: "Of course I don't mind. If Ji Tongpan likes it, he can drink more. My husband doesn't like sweets."

Ji Tongpan responded with a smile and said: "Since Madam said so, the next official will not be polite."
