Chapter three hundred and eighty fourth: the taste of tortoise paste

Guiling paste looks brown and black, and I thought it would be very bitter, but the bitterness is only a little, and it is caused by honey and crushed fruits. The bitterness is mixed with a little sweetness, it is refreshing and sweet, with a light bitterness, and the taste is not bad.

Mu Wuchen took one bite and accepted the taste of Guiling Paste. He took a few more mouthfuls and ate all the Guiling Paste in the bowl.

Gu Xiaoyou considered that he would not be used to it for the first time, so she only served half a bowl to him, but she filled a full bowl herself. When Mu Wuchen finished eating, she still had half of it left to eat.

"How do you feel?" Gu Xiaoyou asked after swallowing a mouthful of Guiling paste.

"The taste is very unique, very cool and refreshing." Mu Wuchen put down the bowl and spoon and commented lightly.

"Wow, you said ten words." Gu Xiaoyou counted on his fingers: "It's not easy."

Mu Wuchen smiled faintly and took a sip of hot tea.

"Besides this, there is also this. There are more of these. Just take a bite and tell me what you think." Gu Xiaoyou took out the bowl of Guiling paste made by the second method, added honey and chopped fruit, and handed it to

Mu Wuchen.

"Yeah." Mu Wuchen no longer disliked Guiling Gao. He took the bowl, stirred it a few times with a spoon, scooped up a spoonful, and brought it to his mouth.

The second bowl of Guiling paste was tougher and tasted more bitter than the first bowl.

Mu Wuchen took two bites and then put it down: "It's a little bitter."

Gu Xiaoyou had already finished the first bowl. Hearing this, he took a sip of the second bowl and wrinkled his nose: "It is indeed more bitter than the first bowl."

She took a few bites and then put it down: "It's too bitter."

Gu Xiaoyou thought about the ingredients of the two kinds of Guiling ointment. The second one was much more bitter than the first one. No wonder it was so bitter.

"It's very troublesome to make this." Gu Xiaoyou rubbed his chin: "Then let's use the first method in the shop. It's simple and the taste is more acceptable."

"Yeah." Mu Wuchen drank a few sips of hot tea to get rid of the bitter taste in his mouth: "The first bowl is better."

Gu Xiaoyou took out two prescriptions from his sleeve and put the second prescription into the drawer.

Mu Wuchen glanced at the words on the prescription: "Guiling jelly."

"Yes, I forgot to tell you that it's called Guiling Gao." Gu Xiaoyou explained with a smile: "Guiling Gao has the effects of nourishing yin and moisturizing dryness, reducing fire and troubles, clearing away dampness and heat, cooling blood and detoxifying. Taking it on a daily basis can

It can remove internal heat and relieve sores on the mouth and tongue.”

Mu Wuchen nodded: "It does feel refreshing after eating it."

"If you like it, I'll give you this pot, even though I dug two holes." Gu Xiaoyou patted the iron plate: "How about I make a new one for you."

"No need to bother, this is fine." Mu Wuchen said calmly.

"Then it will save me trouble." Gu Xiaoyou smiled and covered the cotton cloth on the iron basin: "The Guiling ointment has been formed and will not fall apart. You can just store it in a cool place."

"Yeah." Mu Wuchen responded softly and took a few sips of tea.

Gu Xiaoyou finished her bowl of Guiling paste and said to Mu Wuchen, "What you do as a food taster is not up to standard at all. The morning tea shop makes new refreshments every day, and you never catch up."

"Sorry, I've been busy with work lately." Mu Wuchen said apologetically. Gu Xiaoyou had sent a message to Meng Yu before, asking him to come over and try the food, but he really couldn't spare the time, and he didn't have time until today.

"I know you are busy, so I didn't force you." Gu Xiaoyou shrugged and said with some regret: "It will open in five days, and you haven't tasted a single new dish."

Before the previous restaurant opened, Mu Wuchen would come over to try the dishes.

Mu Wuchen, the morning tea shop owner, did not participate in the whole process, which made Gu Xiaoyou feel a little regretful.

"Have I already tried Guiling Gao?" Mu Wuchen tapped the iron basin: "It tastes very good. I think other new dishes are also delicious."

Hearing this, Gu Xiaoyou regained his energy: "Of course, you don't even look at who provided the recipe."

"Can you tell me what the recipes are?" Mu Wuchen asked with interest.

"It will take a long time to talk about it." Gu Xiaoyou exaggeratedly drew a circle with his hand: "You may not be able to finish talking even if you walk twice a minute."

Mu Wuchen got it right and said with a smile, "I have a lot of time today."

"Really? Then let me take you to see it." Gu Xiaoyou said happily.

"Okay." Mu Wuchen responded, put down the tea cup and stood up.

Gu Xiaoyou stood up actively and took off the coat from the hanger: "Put it on quickly, it's cold outside."

Before Mu Wuchen reached out to take it, Gu Xiaoyou took the initiative to step forward, put the cloak on Mu Wuchen's shoulders, tied the belt of the cloak carefully, and stroked the cloak to smooth it out.

In fact, Gu Xiaoyou wanted to take the opportunity to get close to her favorite cloak, but Mu Wuchen was a little uncomfortable. It was the first time that he was dressed by someone other than a servant, and the servants around him were all men.

The servants who dressed him were respectful and would hardly touch him.

And this girl touched his neck when she was tying her clothes, and now she was touching his cloak. There was really no rule at all.

Mu Wuchen looked a little unnatural. He didn't know whether it was because of Gu Xiaoyou's lack of discipline, or because Gu Xiaoyou was wandering around him and the scent of her body spread to him.

Just as he was about to take a few steps back, away from the source of the strangeness, Gu Xiaoyou had already moved his little hand to reach for his cloak.

Gu Xiaoyou raised her arms awkwardly, slowly took off the cloak, then slowly tied the belt of her shirt, and then slowly straightened the hem of the cloak.

Mu Wuchen raised his eyebrows and watched her movements: "When did you become so... patient?"

In my impression, Gu Xiaoyou has always had a quick temper, and is the one who does everything in a hurry.

Why is it that everything she does today feels strange, and her slow movements are not in line with her character at all.

Gu Xiaoyou adjusted her cloak and sighed quietly. She didn't intend to make excuses anymore and said directly: "It's not because I'm wearing too much."

"How much are you wearing?" Mu Wuchen looked her over a few times, and she indeed looked a bit more rounded than before.

"That's right." Gu Xiaoyou raised her arm, opened her sleeves to reveal several layers of clothes inside, and counted them in detail: "You see, I wear several layers, inner clothes, outer clothes..."

Mu Wuchen glanced at her and immediately looked away. When he heard the inner clothes, his ears turned red. He quickly interrupted her and scolded her: "What nonsense? How can you let others look through your clothes like this?"

"Just look at the sleeves." Gu Xiaoyou pouted and said unhappily: "You can't even look at the sleeves, you're so old-fashioned."

"You!" Mu Wuchen frowned and said seriously: "You are a girl..."
