After leaving the court, Landlord Zhu felt extremely regretful. Why did he listen to Wang Fugui's words and cause trouble for them? Wasn't the previous lesson enough?

Gu Manzhu looked at him with amusement. A dead pig is not afraid of boiling water. It seems that he has not been taught a lesson enough.

Yes, Landlord Zhu is from a wealthy family, so how could he be afraid of a commoner like her? She hoped he would behave better in the future.

Landlord Zhu avoided Gu Manzhu's gaze and walked away dejectedly.

The shopkeeper looked at his apprentice who was still kneeling on the ground.

"Go back and pack your bags and leave. I can't accommodate a giant like you."

Da Chong's body was shaken, and he burst into tears. "Master, Master, I was wrong. I shouldn't have done this for the sake of money. Master, please forgive me this time!"

"If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done it in the first place. Just go!"

After saying this, he bowed to Gu Manzhu, apologized, and said that he was blind to accept this apprentice. He promised that the pharmacy owed her a favor, and then returned to the pharmacy.

Because of this incident, he doesn’t know whether he can continue to run his medicine shop. It’s a pity to destroy the inheritance left by his ancestors.

Gu Manzhu did not stay and took Xiao Chu, Ying and the others back to Shangshan Village.

Because Zhizhi moved back to Qingshi Town to have a baby, Li Huai and Xiao Lizi, who originally planned to live in Shangshan Village, applied to live in the school and would go home after a while until the holiday.

Today happens to be a day off, and the house is filled with the noise of children.

Gu Manzhu was almost bumped by Xiao Lizi as she entered the door.

Xiao Lizi was a little scared when she saw her wearing men's clothes, so she turned around and ran behind her brother Li Huai.

Gu Manzhu laughed and called her. She recognized the voice as Aunt Manzhu and poked her head out from behind her brother.

"Don't you recognize me?"

Xiao Lizi confirmed again and again that the person in front of him was Aunt Manzhu, and ran out happily from behind his brother, holding the kite in his hand to show her.

"Aunt Manzhu, this is what our teacher taught me. I made it for my little sister Zhizhi to play with!"

Gu Manzhu looked at her innocent smiling face, and the haze in her heart dissipated a little.

Take the kite from her hand.

"Then I thank you on behalf of Zhizhi. We'll play again when she grows up."

Little Lizi replied obediently: "Okay, then you keep it well for your sister, and I will take her out to play when she grows up."

"it is good."

He looked up at Li Huai, who had become more serious after being taught by the Master.

"How was it in the academy?"

Li Huai straightened his body and replied respectfully: "Master, you taught me very well."

Gu Manzhu couldn't help it, so she walked up to him and reached out to tap his head.

"Little devil! Hahaha."

Li Huai's handsome face turned red.

Not seeing his own kid who usually likes to go out and play, he asked, "Where's your little sister?"

Xiao Lizi rushed to answer.

"Little sister Zhizhi is tired from playing and is sleeping in her room."

Asleep? That was unlike her energetic daughter.

He patted the two children's heads again and returned to the room.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw the well-maintained cat lying on the bed with its legs spread out in sleep.

He was covered with a patchwork quilt made by Hua Yueya.

Xiao Liu was lying on the side.

Without disturbing them, Gu Manzhu washed herself and changed into clean clothes.

Xiao Chu brought Ying and his group back to Tiger Mountain. Xiao Liu was coaxing the baby to sleep. Where were Uncle Xu and Old Man Song?

Gu Manzhu came out and took a look around but didn't see Uncle Xu and Old Man Song, so she asked Li Huai and his sister.

Li Huai said in a serious tone, "Uncle Xu went to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables."

The vegetable garden is a piece of land that Xu Bo has fenced off next to his house.

As they were talking, the door was pushed open and Uncle Xu and Old Man Song came in, each carrying a basket of vegetables.

When Old Man Song saw Gu Manzhu, his eyes lit up.

Rushing towards her with a basket of vegetables.

"Manzhu girl, someone sent a lot of seafood here today. These two kids said that your cooking is very delicious. Can you show me your skills today?"

Gu Manzhu had her face bare and a faint light flashed in her eyes.

"Okay, that's it..."

When Old Man Song heard her say this, he swallowed his saliva silently and said, "If you have any other requests, leave it to me!"

Gu Manzhu took the basket from his hand with a smile: "You said so, I will prepare a table of seafood dinner for you tonight!"

Old man Song didn't realize that he had fallen into a pit and was still laughing there foolishly.

Xu Bo really couldn't bear to see him, so he followed Gu Manzhu into the kitchen to help.

The seafood was sent by Wang Dachuan today. It was very fresh. In addition to crabs, there were also some shellfish and sea fish.

Gu Manzhu thought about it and decided that in addition to cooking the crabs the same way as before, she would also stir-fry the shellfish with spicy sauce and cut the sea fish into thin slices and make boiled fish fillets.

After working in the kitchen until dark, a seafood feast was ready.

Mr. and Mrs. Li Dong had already rushed back from Liudong Village and were playing with Zhizhi, who had just woken up, in the yard with their two children.

Chen held Zhizhi for a while and then went into the kitchen to help.

With help, Gu Manzhu was able to work much faster.

Serve! Eat!

As the dishes were served one after another, everyone's stomach began to growl involuntarily.

Especially Old Man Song, he had never smelled such a delicious smell. He had been staying here for some time, and out of favor from his apprentice Xiao Chu, he had eaten and drunk for free, and tried many delicacies he had never eaten before. Today's meal was better than all the previous ones.

After waking up from a deep sleep, Zhizhi cried for a while. With red eyes, he looked at the thing he had never seen before and tried to catch it, babbling.

Xiao Lizi held her little hand and she couldn't move it.

"Be good, sister. You can eat it when you are older."

Her only response was to put her other hand in her mouth.

As the dishes were served, everyone took their seats.

Gu Manzhu also took out a pot of fruit wine from the medicine bracelet, which was made from fruits grown in the space.

As soon as the cork was opened, a strong aroma of wine mixed with a hint of sweet fruit suddenly filled the noses of everyone present.

Good wine!

Old man Song stared at the wine on the table with burning eyes, his mind almost turned into a paste.

Gu Manzhu filled the cup and pushed it in front of Old Man Song.

"Senior Song, please."

Old Man Song was so greedy that he didn't know which way to go. "Okay, okay, then I'll have a drink first!"

After saying that, he picked up the glass and drank it all.

The aroma of the wine spreads as soon as you take a sip. It is not as bitter as the wine I had drunk before, but has a sweet aftertaste.

"Another drink," Old Man Song at the top put the cup down heavily.

Gu Manzhu's eyes moved, her eyebrows curved, "There's plenty of wine, let's eat first, and then you can drink as much as you want after you're done eating!"

"Okay! Eat!"

Dinner finally began.

The others began to nibble on the seafood skillfully. Even the smallest one had a piece of crab meat stuffed into his mouth by his mother.

Old Man Song had never eaten it before, so he didn't know how to start.

Gu Manzhu was guiding from the side.

After a lot of effort, I finally took the first bite.

Sweet! Spicy!

What a divine delicacy this is!

Gu Manzhu filled his glass.

"This seafood tastes best when eaten with wine. Come on, let's have a drink."

Old man Song felt that his life was complete. After drinking a glass of wine, his face turned red.

"Good wine! Good food!"

After three rounds of drinking, Gu Manzhu began to ask slowly, "Senior Song, are your martial arts skills very strong?"

Old man Song was half drunk. "Nonsense, I am, but... uh, the number one in Yuming country..."
