Chapter 152: Didn’t buy ingredients

Although they don’t know what this dumpling is. When they heard the name, Meng Nan and Jin Shiwei thought it must be delicious food. The food Bai Zhi cook always tastes good.

Jin Shiwei smiled and asked: “Zhi’er, can you make egg pancake like the last time?” Poor him, he didn’t taste it the last time. His young master ate them all.

Bai Zhi nodded her head cheerfully: “Sure.”

Seeing her so happy, Jin Shiwei added: “That corn ribs soup last time also taste so good. Can you also make it?”

Bai Zhi shook her head: “I would like to, but there is no corn and ribs in the house, I can’t do it.”

Jin Shiwei was disappointed, his grieving eyes fell on Meng Nan’s body: “Gongzi, this is all your fault, you should have gone to the market to buy ingredients.” If his young master didn’t refuse to go to the market today. At lunch, he’ll definitely be able to eat corn ribs soup.

In these past few days, he even dreamed of its taste.

Meng Nan’s cold eyes swept over Jin Shiwei. If Jin Shiwei has nothing good to say, he better just close his mouth.

Meng Nan gently stroked the new robe in his body. He was wearing a blue silk robe, with the same color crepe cotton cloth, and slightly darker embroidered bamboo belt with a pigeon-egg-sized sapphire in the middle. On his foot, he was wearing a silk embroidered cloud boots. From head to toe, it can be seen how elegant and wealthy he is.

He was wearing such expensive clothes and shoes, but he wanted him to buy ingredients in the market?

Besides, he didn’t expect that there will actually no ingredients in Bai Zhi’s house… …

Bai Zhi said: “Alright if you come back again next time, remember to bring the ingredients. No matter what you want to eat, I’ll cook it for you.”

Jin Shiwei hurriedly answered back in excitement: “Zhi’er, if I come alone to have a meal, will you entertain me?”

Although Jin Shiwei seemed like only a guard around Meng Nan. She can see how casual the two talked to each other. Meaning, Jin Shiwei was not an ordinary guard. Meng Nan, on the other hand, is a competent and eloquent person.

Even if he was not from a very prestigious family, he seems to be a real government worker. She was nothing but a little girl from a mountain village, it may be too late to curry favor. However, if there will be a chance in the future, at least she has someone she can talk from the government office.

Bai Zhi nodded her head and smiled: “Of course, I will. Jin Dage, you can always come whenever you want.”

Jin Dage?

Meng Nan knitted his eyebrows. This little girl always called him Meng Daren, but he called Jin Shiwei, Jin Dage?

“If I don’t come, you won’t come.” Meng Nan looked at Jin Shiwei coldly.

He wouldn’t be called a bodyguard if he doesn’t know what on his young master’s mind. So, Jin Shiwei only averted his eyes. Bai Zhi opened her mouth and said: “The time is not too early, Hu Feng and I still have something to do. You two have a good rest here. We will come back before afternoon.”

If it was like before, she won’t be able to say that she can come back before afternoon. But today is different, today they have a carriage.

There were two paths to go to the Luoying Mountain. One was the path they walked through the last time. They can only use their foot to get in there. A carriage cannot pass through it. The other one was the path people use to bring their carts during autumn harvest.

Moreover, today, the heat of the sun was extreme. If they use the carriage, not only they will save energy, they will also be free from the sunlight.

There are still more than 2 hours before the afternoon, but she wants him to sit in their house?

So, Meng Nan asked: “Where are you two going? If it’s not inconvenient, I can also go with you.” Instead of staying idle, he prefers to go out to do more activities.

  1. Y’know. She really should open up a restaurant. Have this guy be the owner so that he can stop pressure from nobles, also have him contribute chefs and staff to the business while she contributes recipes and around like every 4(?) or so months she adds some new recipes.

    This way she gets money AND this guy doesn’t have to keep coming back for food, he can have his chefs make it. Personally, I think our MC has been spending a bit too much lately and pretty much has no way of making money unless she uses her medical skills but… who would believe a 12-13 y/o has the right skills, so I think a restaurant is better.
