Surprise! The little koi from the farm, her husband who died long ago is alive!

Chapter 147 Testing

People feel refreshed when good things happen to them. For Mrs. Yan, the most important thing is that her grandson returns safely.

Her complexion was obviously much better than before, and the smile that had not been seen for many days returned to her face.

Although he is now in a state of imprisonment, at least he doesn't have to die, which is a great thing.

She held Jiang Shuyue's hand tightly and said, "Child, when your ninth brother comes back, you must thank him very much."

"Alas, he has learned his lesson this time. Let's see if he dares to act impulsively again."

Old Madam Yan looked at Jiang Shuyue and said, "I don't know where your ninth brother is."

"Madam, if he's still alive, why worry that he won't know? When the time comes, post the news everywhere, and he will come back when he sees it."

Old Lady Yan nodded and said, "You are right, as long as we are alive, that's all."

Jiang Shuyue didn't dare to delay because she was also assigned the task of cooking. After chatting with the old lady for a while, Jiang Shuyue went to the kitchen to prepare.

Not knowing Mr. Xu's hometown, let alone his taste, Jiang Shuyue had to use her best skills to cook both main dishes and snacks.

I believe that people who love food will have no resistance to the special snacks from all over the world.

The dishes were ready, and Jiang Shuyue was worried, waiting to see whether Lord Xu would be willing to do her the honor.

"Sparse Moon!"

Jiang Shuyue saw Yan Laosi and asked hurriedly, "Is Lord Xu here?"

"Here he comes. He was not happy at first, but I told him that you cook delicious food and finally he came. Now it's up to you."

Jiang Shuyue nodded, "You take care of Mr. Xu first, and I'll cook the dishes."

Yan Laosi was afraid that he had not greeted everyone well, so he went back in a hurry.

Dishes were served out one after another. Jiang Shuyue didn't know what the reactions of the guests were. She asked the maid who served the dishes, and she said that they were all very happy eating.

As long as she is happy, Jiang Shuyue feels more confident. She still has confidence in her cooking skills.

No feast is complete without fish. The last dish is the squirrel fish specially made by Jiang Shuyue. This dish tests both the knife skills and the cooking time.

This was the first time Jiang Shuyue made it after her rebirth, but she was still very satisfied when she saw the finished product with its tail sticking up in the plate.

Pour the dish with the freshly brewed sweet and sour sauce, garnish it with some red flowers and green leaves, and the maid waiting on the side is ready to serve it.

"Wait, Miss Xing'er, let me serve this."

Although Jiang Shuyue is not a daughter of the Yan family, everyone in the Yan family knows that she saved the family's lives, and no one dares to disrespect her.

When she wanted to serve it, Xing'er naturally didn't dare to snatch it, so she followed behind and carried it to the main hall.

Jiang Shuyue was still outside when she heard a man's voice coming from inside, praising her for her cooking.

Jiang Shuyue strode in. When Yan Lao Si and Yan Lao Da saw her, their eyes lit up. "Sister Shuyue, you've come at the right time. Lord Xu is praising your cooking skills. Come and meet Lord Xu. Not the Xu Zizhen you mentioned, Lord Xu."

Jiang Shuyue was shocked. She didn't know whether the Lord Xu in front of her knew the Lord Xu he was talking about. But since she was going to find out anyway, she was not nervous.

She put the fish down, bowed, and took the opportunity to look at Lord Xu. Unfortunately, she had never seen him in her previous life, so he should not be an official in the capital.

"No need to be polite!" Xu Zian said in a deep voice, "I heard that the two young masters of the Yan family said that these were all made by the young lady?"

Jiang Shuyue smiled and nodded, "Yes, I am just a country woman, and I don't know if the dishes I made are to your taste, so I came to ask."

She knew that her presence was somewhat inappropriate, but she wanted to make one thing clear, so she didn't care about that.

"Sir, you don't know that my sister is too modest. She is a woman who runs a restaurant and does business, which is extraordinary. At such a young age, she is more capable than all of us men combined." Yan Laosi said with a smile.

"That's right, Shuyue, you don't have to be so modest. Your cooking skills are deeply loved by the adults." Boss Yan also agreed.

Xu Zian nodded, especially his eyes fell on the squirrel mandarin fish she had just brought. The smell alone told him that it was authentic. Most of the dishes on the table today were things he, a food lover, had never seen before, and even made him feel ignorant.

It really opened his eyes to find someone with such great cooking skills in such a small county.

He remained calm and asked, "Do you know Master Xu Zizhen?"

"Is there really such a person?" Yan Laosi was surprised. He thought that Xu and Xu had similar pronunciations and she had heard it wrong!

Xu Zian nodded and said, "However, he was originally the one who was to conduct the inspection, not me. Unfortunately, his corruption was exposed and he was dismissed from his post. He is currently on trial in the Ministry of Justice."

Jiang Shuyue was shocked. No wonder the person was changed.

But if it was really Xiao Lin who did it, how could he have done it without getting his status as a prince back?

At this moment, she was being stared at by a scrutinizing gaze. Xu Zian asked, "As far as I know, Xu Zizhen has never been to your county. How did you know that?"

The two brothers of the Yan family were also confused, especially the fourth brother Yan. He remembered what Jiang Shuyue had just said to him at the door, and they all matched.

How could she, a country woman, know so much?

Jiang Shuyue was being stared at by several pairs of eyes, but she did not panic. When Yan Laosi mentioned Xu Zizhen's name just now, she had already prepared her words.

It was a good thing that Xu Zian asked, as she could just test whether this matter had anything to do with Xiao Lin.

Jiang Shuyue remained calm, "My husband was a soldier before, and he saved General Pei. I heard him mention Mr. Xu. I heard someone coming for inspection, but I misheard and thought it was that Mr. Xu."

Xu Zian looked at Jiang Shuyue, his sharp eyes fell on her beautiful face, "General Pei? What's your husband's name? I haven't heard of this."

Jiang Shuyue didn't expect that Lord Xu would actually dig deep into her mind. She suddenly remembered that if she said Xiao Lin's name, would his identity be exposed?

And she already knew the answer she wanted to know.

Even Xu Zian didn’t know that Xiao Lin saved General Pei, so Xiao Lin naturally didn’t regain his identity. So, could it not be him this time?

"It's not a big deal. General Pei is so brave, he doesn't need my man's help. I think he was just bragging to me. Maybe he just helped the general lead the horse!"

Xu Zian nodded, thinking that if he saved General Pei, the news would surely spread throughout the capital, and it would be impossible for everyone to not know about it.

Things were probably just as the woman said, the man didn't achieve anything, but when he returned home he wanted to save face and brag about it.

"Speaking of General Pei, his son, General Pei, also won a victory in the south and will be returning to the capital soon. This is really cause for celebration!"

"You said General Pei won a great victory?" Jiang Shuyue asked excitedly.
