One of the important reasons why Gu Jinchu opened Cha Baidao and Jinsu Dim Sum Bureau in Wudaofang was that the two shops were closely connected.

There is also a spacious yard at the back, not far from several popular shops. This can save a lot of energy.

After all, good things are not afraid of being buried. There is an old saying that goes: Good wine needs no bush.

Just a few months ago, Chunxi Road was one of the most prosperous areas in Shengjing City, attracting many dignitaries and noble ladies to come for shopping.

Currently, the development trend of Wudaofang is becoming stronger and stronger, and it is likely to surpass Chunxi Road.

Many novel and special snacks have emerged here, which are refreshing.

Naturally, her two shops also benefited and their business became more prosperous.

When Gu Jinchu came today, he wanted to try the spicy hot pot and spicy mixed food.

Compared with Zhengjia Hotpot Restaurant, which has been doing a booming business since the beginning of winter, Malatang and Malaban are more affordable and do not require too much waiting time.

This new type of cuisine has become Wudaofang's signature dish, attracting many diners to come and taste it.

Wudaofang gradually became a must-pass place for outsiders who first came to Shengjing City.

However, Gu Jinchu knew that all of these were the work of Zheng's grandmother.

Baizhi and Gaode, brother and sister, brought back the delicious food prepared by their master and also brought back someone.

This is the person Tao Yunwu mentioned, the one who wanted to meet Gu Jinchu.

There is no floor heating in the main room, so the room is naturally not as warm as Yuanyuan Hall, but there is a warm wall for heating.

There was a soft pillow behind Gu Jinchu's waist and a brazier brought by the servant at his feet, so he didn't feel the winter cold.

She placed the teacup in her hand on the table in front of her and looked up at the person who came.

He is not as tall as Gao De, and not as strong as Jiang An. It is obvious that he is either too young or not that strong in stature.

He was wearing a dark grey quilted Taoist robe with a collar. He looked a little bloated because he had worn so many layers of it. His head and face were wrapped so tightly that it was hard to tell what he looked like.

The person who allowed Baizhi and Gaode to come in must have been seen before.

Such mystification immediately made Gu Jinchu lose interest.

When the visitor saw Gu Jinchu looking him up and down, he withdrew his gaze and walked over on his own initiative.

Because there were too many things on her head, her voice sounded muffled. "Aren't you curious about who I am, Madam Jiang Wu?"

The food in the lunch box was still steaming when it was taken out, and the smell of food filled the room.

It's spicy and numb, with a hint of sourness. In short, there are many different flavors mixed together in the air.

Malatang and Mala mixed soup were placed on the table by the servants, next to them was milk tea brought by the waiter, and freshly baked long puffs in the taro flavor that Gu Jinchu liked.

Gu Jinchu only left a piece of puff pastry that was about the length of his hand, and let the two maids share the rest.

The plate in front of him had a rich and fresh aroma of spicy oil, and Gu Jinchu felt his appetite suddenly increased.

"First of all, this place is full of my people. If anything happens, don't even think about leaving."

The man peeled off his warm hat and scarf layer by layer, took a deep breath, stood up, bowed to Gu Jinchu and said:

"When I first met Madam Jiang Wu, I knew you were a heroine. Seeing you again today, I found that you are indeed worthy of your reputation. If I follow the example of the Imperial Sister, I will also call you Fifth Aunt."

Gu Jinchu looked at his face and was not too surprised.

It is Zhao Kuo, the sixth son of the current emperor.

The last time they met, he intentionally or unintentionally led her and the eldest princess to Mingxiang Pavilion.

The Sixth Prince was still a little immature at that time, but now, his voice already had the richness of a young man.

Gu Jinchu bowed and raised her hand to signal, "You are too polite, Sixth Prince. My younger brother is about the same age as you, so I am not worthy of being called your aunt."

"...Besides, Duke Dingguo's Mansion is only a relative of the eldest princess."

The Sixth Prince paused for a moment, then sat in the chair and said with a smile, "Madam Jiang Wu is just like Lord Jiang, always so polite."

Gu Jinchu looked at the food on the table and frowned slightly. She hadn't eaten yet and didn't want to share it with others.

Besides, the relationship between her and the Sixth Prince was not suitable for them to eat at the same table.

After thinking it over, he told the maid beside him, "Bai Shao, go to the shop in front and get a table screen."

When Bai Shao came back, Jiang An followed her.

The guards who had just come out of the Jiang family were having lunch. When Bai Shao came back with something, Jiang An realized that the Sixth Prince had come uninvited.

Zhao Kuo had seen Jiang An with Jiang Nansheng before, and seemed to be oblivious to the extra guards in the room.

Gu Jinchu ordered people to put a screen between her and the Sixth Prince. Both of them sat at the table and could not see each other.

After giving him half of each food, he said:

"The Sixth Prince must have known that I was pregnant, and he couldn't help but pick up his chopsticks the moment he saw the food he wanted to eat. You should also try this commoner's meal. If there is something urgent, we can talk while we eat."

After Gu Jinchu finished speaking, he couldn't wait to pick up a thick-cut potato slice, which was covered with sesame paste and rich red chili oil. Before he put it in his mouth, his mouth was already full of saliva.

"Mrs. Jiang Wu is so hospitable and informal that it makes people look at her with even greater respect."

Zhao Kuo looked down at the plate, which contained what Gu Jinchu called common people's food. There were eggs, meat, vegetables, and other foods that he couldn't name.

What she didn't know was that half a year ago, his daily meals in the palace were not as sumptuous as this one.

Gu Jinchu swallowed the food in his mouth and said bluntly, "Isn't it more unexpected that the Sixth Prince stood out among the many princes and then received the praise of the emperor?"

After she finished speaking, the only sound left in the room was the gentle clinking of dishes and chopsticks.

When she had almost finished eating, she heard a voice asking questions from the other side of the screen.

"Madam Jiang Wu, do you know the real cause of your concubine's sister's death?"
