Farmer’s Stepmother’s Skillful Farming

Chapter 611 Unmarried

 “A civilian girl, Lu Wenqing, has met Magistrate Gu.” Lu Wenqing saluted.

"Shopkeeper Lu, please don't be polite." Gu Xiuwen said hurriedly, "I heard my little girl mention shopkeeper Lu before, but I have never seen him before and I don't know him."

“Shopkeeper Lu sells Qilixiang, and I go there often. The hibiscus and pea cake he sold these past two days is also very delicious.”

Seeing Gu Xiuwen praising the cakes sold at Qilixiang stall, Lu Wenqing was very happy, "This hibiscus and pea cake is a craft passed down from my father. I have some experience with it. Since it has been eaten by the Lord, I will send some to the Lord's house another day." superior."

"If that's the case, only pea cake won't do. I also want egg yolk cake, lotus cake, poria cake..." Gu Yunxi responded first from the side.

"Yunxi, you are acting silly again." Seeing Gu Yunxi like this, Gu Xiuwen interrupted her, "My little girl is rude, don't blame Shopkeeper Lu."

“Don’t worry, sir, I’m very familiar with Miss Yunxi. To put it bluntly, I consider Miss Yunxi my younger sister. I originally planned to give Miss Yunxi more cakes and snacks.”

Lu Wenqing smiled and said, "But let's make a promise first. I will send you a lot of food, but I have made a promise that you are not allowed to eat until you are full."

"Sister Gu, don't worry, I promise." Gu Yunxi immediately stood up straight and agreed with a serious expression.

 His serious look once again made everyone laugh.

After exchanging a few words, Bai Shitang and Su Mulan drove the bullock cart to leave.

Gu Xiuwen and Gu Yunxi also wanted to say goodbye.

"Sorry for the trouble, Shopkeeper Lu." Gu Xiuwen didn't forget to say one more thing before leaving.

"Master Gu, please don't be polite." Lu Wenqing said goodbye briefly, "Master Gu, go slowly."

"Sister Lu, I'm leaving." As the carriage moved forward, Gu Yunxi still waved to Lu Wenqing from the window of the carriage, "Remember to bring some snacks."

“Don’t worry.” Lu Wenqing waved her hand and watched the carriage go away before returning to her home.

 After arriving home, without stopping, he went into the kitchen and got busy making cakes.

Seeing this, Forsythia hurriedly helped, "Miss, let's take a rest before doing it. I guess Miss Gu is not in a hurry to eat. It won't be too late to send it over tomorrow."

After all, she is the daughter of the county magistrate's family, so she should not be short of food at home.

“It’s not all because of Yunxi, but also because of Magistrate Gu.” Lu Wenqing rolled up her sleeves, washed her hands, and started looking for materials to make those pastries.

 “Because of County Magistrate Gu?” Forsythia was stunned for a moment.

 Lu Wenqing has reached the age of discussing marriage. Magistrate Gu is a widower with a child. Both men and women are considered unmarried. Is it possible...

"Yes, because of Magistrate Gu." Lu Wenqing said with a smile, "Although our Lu family is rich, we are still merchants. If we can be friends with Magistrate Gu's family, our status will also rise with the tide."

"Because Qilixiang's business is good and I am quite famous in Linglong Pavilion, the clan now attaches great importance to my eldest brother and me. If we see that we are not far away from County Magistrate Gu in the future, the clan will also pay more attention to it. ”

 In this case, it will be beneficial to the restoration of Shunyizhai's property and to make life easier for her and Lu Jingyan in the future.

 But this would probably be unfair to Gu Yunxi.

Gu Yunxi called her sister and liked the pastries she made, but she wanted to rely on this relationship to pave the way for her family's business.
