Chapter 229: Mu Wuchen's concern
Gu Xiaoyou stood obediently in the courtyard and let Mu Wuchen help her wipe away the water droplets on her face.
Meng Yu, who was standing behind Mu Wuchen, opened his eyes wide when he saw this scene, wondering if he was hallucinating.
How could the master wipe someone's face?
Could it be that someone switched the master over?
Meng Yu observed curiously for a few times and saw that his master's facial features were still so handsome and impeccable, but his eyes were a little gentler than usual.
As if he noticed Meng Yu's gaze, Mu Wuchen glanced at him with sharp eyes and said coldly: "Go to the hall and wait."
Meng Yu felt a chill in his heart when he was glanced at by Mu Wuchen. He was definitely his master.
"Yes, Master." Meng Yu put aside his doubts, responded respectfully, and walked towards the hall after seeing the ceremony.
Gu Xiaoyou didn't notice anything strange and enjoyed Mu Wuchen's considerate care.
After the water droplets were wiped off her face, Gu Xiaoyou reached out her little hand and said, "There is water on my hand too."
Mu Wuchen suddenly realized that he seemed to be serving her. He frowned and put the handkerchief directly into Gu Xiaoyou's hand: "Wipe it yourself."
This girl really dares to command him!
Gu Xiaoyou pouted, picked up the handkerchief and wiped her hands: "The service is not good at all."
"What are you talking about?" Mu Wuchen narrowed his eyes slightly, wondering if he was too spoiled to her and allowed this girl to push her too far.
"Nothing, nothing." Gu Xiaoyou quickly showed a bright smile: "By the way, why did you come so early? It only opens in the morning."
"I will go to court before Chen Shi, so I came to take a look before I go to court." Mu Wuchen explained.
"You go to work so early." Gu Xiaoyou said with emotion. He didn't expect that the officials of Chaoyang Kingdom were so diligent.
No wonder it is called the Country of Chaoyang, everyone works under the sun.
"Then let me take you to the kitchen and finish breakfast first, otherwise I'm afraid you'll be late for work, no, for morning." Gu Xiaoyou said anxiously.
"Okay." Mu Wuchen responded and followed Gu Xiaoyou towards the kitchen.
As Mu Wuchen walked, he quietly cast his eyes on Gu Xiaoyou, but Gu Xiaoyou was so focused on going into the kitchen to cook for him that he didn't notice Mu Wuchen's eyes at all.
When he was approaching the kitchen door, Mu Wuchen suddenly said, "You have lost weight."
"Is there any?" Gu Xiaoyou stopped and subconsciously touched his face.
It seems that I am indeed thinner than when I was researching food, and the flesh on my face seems to be gone.
Using the cover of her sleeves, Gu Xiaoyou pinched her waist again and found that the soft flesh on her waist had disappeared at some point.
"I do seem to have lost some weight. That's great. It saved me the trouble of dieting and losing weight." Gu Xiaoyou smiled cheerfully, thinking optimistically that she didn't expect that the training clerk could still lose weight.
Hearing this, Mu Wuchen's eyes flashed with distress.
When he just wiped Gu Xiaoyou's face, he noticed that she was thinner than before.
While preparing at the breakfast restaurant, Mu Wuchen took a carriage and passed by Anyang Street in Lutan. He wanted to stop and talk to Gu Xiaoyou.
But when I saw Gu Xiaoyou talking to the maid through the car window, and when I saw her rosy complexion and plump cheeks, I knew she was doing well.
After seeing her finish talking to the maid, she hurried to the shop, and Mu Wuchen did not stop.
Unexpectedly, when I saw her again, all the fat on her face was gone, and she was still a little thinner than before.
Seeing Gu Xiaoyou's happy look, Mu Wuchen didn't say anything disappointing, but just said: "No need to lose weight, you are fine now. You should pay more attention to your health."
"Well, I understand, you should pay more attention to your health." Gu Xiaoyou said cheerfully, and continued to walk into the kitchen with Mu Wuchen.
As soon as the kitchen door rang, Mrs. Zhou turned around. She wanted to ask Gu Xiaoyou why he had been gone for so long, but she saw Mu Wuchen behind her and quickly greeted her respectfully: "Hello, Mr. Mu, I wonder if you are here?"
Please forgive me for not being able to welcome you from afar."
Seeing that Boss Zhou was so polite, the other cooks also put down their work to see the courtesy.
Gu Xiaoyou took the opportunity to introduce: "This is the big boss behind the scenes. He is my boss. If you remember his appearance, he will order food for free in the future."
Gu Xiaoyou introduced with a bit of joking, Mu Wuchen chuckled lightly and did not refute.
"Yes, we have taken note of it." Seeing this, the cooks responded in unison.
"Okay, continue cooking, don't worry about us." Gu Xiaoyou waved his hand, and the cooks immediately returned to their respective posts.
This was the first time Mu Wuchen entered the kitchen, and he looked around in the kitchen with his hands behind his back.
The cooks and Mrs. Zhou were a little uncomfortable at first, but Mu Wuchen kept silent and just didn't speak. They gradually relaxed and devoted themselves to their work.
"What do you want to eat?" Gu Xiaoyou asked softly.
"You decide." Mu Wuchen replied without turning his head, looking at the kitchen constantly.
He looked very much like a child visiting an amusement park for the first time. Gu Xiaoyou shook his head in amusement and turned around to prepare the ingredients for pancakes and fruits.
There are sufficient ingredients in the kitchen, and even the batter is ready. Gu Xiaoyou only needs to follow the steps to spread the pancakes on the pan.
She put the pan on the stove with great difficulty, heated the pan, and when the temperature came up, she applied oil to the pan.
At this time, Mu Wuchen also looked away and noticed the pan on Gu Xiaoyou's stove.
Even though he never entered the kitchen, Mu Wuchen was still familiar with Chaoyang Kingdom's kitchen utensils, and he immediately became interested in the pans.
Walking to Gu Xiaoyou's side with his hands behind his back, he saw Gu Xiaoyou pouring the batter into a flat pan and using a strange-shaped board to turn the batter around, turning it into a round pancake.
"So this is how pancakes are made." Mu Wuchen's eyes flashed with interest.
At this time, Gu Xiaoyou had already quickly put the eggs and pancakes on the pancakes, folded the pancakes in half with a spatula twice, and a portion of pancake fruit was ready.
After putting the pancake fruits into the oil paper bag, Gu Xiaoyou was about to hand the paper bag to Mu Wuchen. When she turned around, she saw him looking at it curiously with a scraper in hand, and couldn't help but ask, "Do you want to try it?"
"Yes." Mu Wuchen responded lightly, but his posture was a bit eager to try.
"I'll heat up the pan first." While heating the pan, Gu Xiaoyou informed Mu Wuchen of the steps for making pancakes. He explained them in great detail and made gestures with his hands from time to time.
When Gu Xiaoyou poured the batter into the pan, he kept reminding him: "The pancakes may not be round enough for the first time. This is a common thing..."
As she was talking patiently, she heard a soft sneer in her ear: "What's so difficult about this."
"Then you come directly." Gu Xiaoyou didn't expect this guy to be so immodest and gave up his position directly.
