Chapter 290 Gu Zizhan's Disgust
Shen Xia showed a teasing smile on her face and shook her head and said, "I'm not sure, but you can try it first. After all, everyone's gastrointestinal reaction is different! Some people won't have diarrhea even if they eat something not very clean!" She deliberately kept it a secret to make everyone more curious.
Xiao Bei frowned slightly and asked, "Then how should this sashimi be eaten?"
Shen Xia explained with a smile: "Come on, like this, pick up a piece of sashimi with chopsticks, and then lightly dip it in a little bit of mustard and soy sauce. If you think the taste is not strong enough, you can dip it in more mustard. Try it!" After that, she demonstrated how to put the sashimi into her mouth and taste it.
Everyone was curious about this novel food and followed Shen Xia's example to try it.
"Well, this taste is really unique and very delicious!" Doctor Cui expressed his feelings after tasting it carefully.
His evaluation immediately resonated with others. Although everyone had never come across this kind of food before, they still trusted Shen Xia's recommendation deep down in their hearts.
Then, everyone followed suit and tasted the sashimi, nodding their heads in approval.
"Well, it's really good, the taste is very special and the texture is tender and smooth." Xiao Bei said with appreciation.
Shen Xia smiled slightly and responded politely: "I'm glad you like it. It's worth my hard work in the kitchen for most of the day."
In addition to sashimi, there was a steamed flounder, a yellow croaker, and a king crab on the table.
In addition, there is boiled fish made with grouper.
There is also Dongpo pork, braised chicken, and a four-happiness meatball soup.
Still quite rich.
Gu Zizhan suddenly said, "I didn't know you were such a good cook. Did you learn it at the Song family?"
It has to be said that Gu Zizhan's words were a bit choking, and Song Jiang's chopsticks suddenly stopped moving.
Of course Song Jiang understood what he meant.
Shen Xia looked up at Gu Zizhan and smiled, "I'm smart and I was born with this ability. I don't usually do it."
Although he knew that Gu Zizhan was speaking up for him, it was really unnecessary due to his status. He was suspecting that the Song family was not treating him well. After all, good cooking skills cannot be acquired overnight.
But, brother, have you recovered from your injury? I can't find anything to do and I'm not happy here anymore.
Gu Zizhan listened while Shen Xia tried to find a way out for Song Jiang.
I felt uncomfortable again.
Shen Xia felt embarrassed and gently took Song Jiang's wine bowl and poured some wine into her own bowl.
He glanced at Song Jiang and said, "Brother, let's go together." Then he raised his glass and looked at Gu Zizhan and said, "We both toast to you. Thank you for your help in getting along."
Song Jiang also looked at Gu Zizhan: "Thank you."
Song Jiang knew very well how much Gu Zizhan loved Shen Xia.
If Princess Rui hadn't intervened, perhaps nothing would have happened to me.
But since he missed it, I will never let it go, even if I die.
Gu Zizhan looked at the wine that Song Jiang offered him.
It’s okay if he doesn’t want to drink, but he can’t refuse the drink from Shen Xia.
The arrogance of a young master from a noble family cannot be aroused at all in front of Shen.
After Song Jiang finished drinking, he looked at Gu Zizhan and said, "As for what you said just now, it was my fault that Xia Xia suffered so much. I will change and never let Xia Xia touch water again in the future."
Shen Xia was stunned. She thought Song Jiang would be embarrassed.
As a result, Shen Xia looked at Song Jiang and did not do that. Instead, he accepted Gu Zizhan's statement calmly.
Shen Xia gently squeezed Song Jiang's palm from under the table to comfort him.
Shen Xia looked at Gu Zizhan and didn't know what to say to him.
After all, we are not one of us anymore.
After thinking about it, I shut up.
This made Doctor Cui and Xiao Bei look confused.
What's happening here.
We are friends for life and death, why are we so tense?
The two looked at each other, something was going on!
Xiao Bei secretly glanced at the similar rings on the hands of the three people.
This is!!!!
I had a silent guess in my mind.
Xiao Bei smiled and said, "It just so happens that both of you, Song Jiang and Gu Zizhan, are here. Let's toast to congratulate you on your promotion. You two will both be promoted to lieutenants. It won't be long before you become generals. Let's protect this great land together."
Shen Xia also drank a little.
Think about it.
Xiao Bei looked at Shen Xia: "Shen Xia, Song Jiang said you are going back."
Shen Xia nodded: "Well, nothing's wrong here, the child is fine at home."
"Because Song Jiang has just been promoted, there are still many things to do in the military camp. In addition, he was away for too long before, which delayed him a lot. So Gu Zizhan is going to buy food there and will pass through Wuyang County. Can you follow him all the way?"
Gu Zizhan is injured and cannot do any heavy work, so the only thing that can be assigned to him is buying food.
Shen Xia glanced at Gu Zizhan.
Then he glanced at Song Jiang.
Shen Xia also understood that in fact, no one could be fine all the way, and she was not such a delicate person.
Song Jiang seemed to want to say something?
"Okay, that's troublesome." Shen Xia agreed immediately.
After all, my brother has finally been promoted and of course he doesn't want to delay his work because of me.
Xiao Bei felt relieved when he saw that everything had been arranged. After all, Xiao Bei really hoped that Shen Xia would return home safely.
Doctor Cui said, "Stay a little longer."
"No, there is a little one at home."
Doctor Cui thought so too.
Shen Xia had prepared something for them in the evening, but they both drank too much.
I don't know who is competing with whom.
If Shen Xia hadn't said, "Gu Zizhan, your injury hasn't healed yet, drink less."
Otherwise, Gu Zizhan wouldn’t know how to drink it.
Shen Xia thought to herself, don't give yourself too much Song Jiang, otherwise you will be the one who suffers at night.
After dinner, when seeing off guests.
Xiaoyan took the gifts she had prepared, which were packed in three wooden boxes.
Shen Xia handed one to each person.
"What is it?" Xiao Bei was curious.
Open it and take a look.
It has a certain weight, the craftsmanship is very delicate, and the hardness and softness are moderate.
Doctor Cui and Gu Zizhan did not open it, but just looked at what was in Xiao Bei's hand.
Doctor Cui was surprised and said, "Soft armor for protection."
Shen Xia nodded: "Well, although Doctor Cui doesn't need soldiers, you often move around on the battlefield, so you should also prepare one. This protective soft armor will not be hurt by swords and knives."
Gu Zizhan looked at this fine product.
Song Jiang must have existed for a long time.
That's why he is so brave on the battlefield.
I couldn't help but raise the corner of my mouth slightly. If I didn't save him, he might not be able to bear the serious injury. I was overthinking it.
Look at the box in your hand.
But this is different because she gave it to me.
What Song Jiang has, he also has.
I feel a lot better.
"Master, you gave me three items at once. That's really generous!"
"No, I just want to thank you all for taking care of my big brother. This small gift is not a sign of respect, I hope you don't mind." Shen Xia said modestly.
Although Xiao Bei heard Shen Xia say this,
But everyone knows how important this thing is.
Besides, on the battlefield, no one is immune to injury, but with this armor, it is really like adding wings to a tiger.
