After Zhou Mu took his seat, he never took his eyes off Gu Xiyan's face.

He found that today's Gu Xiyan is different from any time in the past, she looks energetic and lively. In the past, this girl gave him the impression of a mature girl, like a lake when she was quiet, but today she has a special air.

He found more and more that he didn't know Gu Xiyan that well, and she might have a lot of secrets.

Gu Xiyan was chatting and laughing with Su Mei in a low voice, and when she raised her head, she met Zhou Mu's dark eyes.

Only then did she remember that her fiance and son-in-law were also there, and she got carried away with complacency.

At this time, Wu Tong announced the official start of the auction, and her attention was diverted in an instant.

Wu Tong brought out the first dish, before he lifted the lid, he raised his voice: "This dish is called 'One Leg'..."

Before he finished speaking, everyone laughed.

When Wu Tong lifted the cover and smelled the aroma of the vegetables, all of his smiles were suppressed, and everyone wished they could glue their eyes to the vegetables.

"The raw material of this 'one leg' dish is deboned lamb leg, served with the freshest crucian carp. After 38 procedures, the process took four hours to make this delicious dish..."

Before Wu Tong finished speaking, there was a commotion downstairs.

Gu Xiyan was seated by the window, she poked her head to look, and saw King Zhao, Princess Baohe, and Princess Yongjia all came, arguing to go upstairs.

When she saw King Zhao, her heart beat faster.

In this gourmet auction, she felt that the most important person should be King Zhao. Zhao Wang usually does not do business properly, but he is a glutton for delicious food.

Although Emperor Chengde never regarded Zhao Wang as the heir to the throne, he never restricted Zhao Wang in terms of food and clothing. Zhao Wang was famous throughout the capital for his generous spending.

It can be said that the main target of her gourmet auction this time is King Zhao.

She was disappointed that she hadn't seen King Zhao before, and planned to think of a way to lure King Zhao to show up tomorrow. She didn't want King Zhao to be late, but not absent.

What surprised her the most was that King Zhao also brought Princess Baohe and Princess Yongjia, and these two nobles also brought her money.

And these three nobles are people who don't follow the rules, so they went up to the second floor after putting down their money.

Wu Tong was about to step forward to chase people away, but Gu Xiyan raised her voice and said, "Your Highness, princess, would you like to sit by my side?!"

When Princess Yongjia saw Gu Xiyan, she was about to go over, but because Zhou Mu's face was so eye-catching, she immediately caught her eyes.

Her heart was beating fast, and she took Bao and Princess to Zhou Mu's table without hesitation.

Seeing this scene, Gu Xiyan's heartbeat slowed down by half a beat.

Zhou Mu's admirers in his previous life were countless. If you want to find someone who impresses you, Princess Yongjia is the one.

It's just that Zhou Mu didn't give any woman a chance to get close to her from the beginning to the end, so that after she was reborn and returned, she forgot that Princess Yongjia was also Zhou Mu's servant.

Princess Bao and Princess happened to be interested in Xu Yanqing, while Princess Yongjia was interested in Zhou Mu, and they hit it off right away.

Zhao Wang has always been idle, and when he learned that Jixianglou held a food festival, he rushed to Jixianglou.

Seeing Princess Yongjia staring at Zhou Mu, Liu Chaoyan immediately gloated and said, "Elder sister, you have to be more careful. Princess Yongjia has fallen in love with Lord Zhou, and she may poach elder sister's corner at any time. At that time, elder sister will be divorced again. I really can't get married in this life."

"Sister, you should worry about yourself. You haven't gotten married yet, the King of Qin has raised an outer room, and there are quite a few common rooms. After my sister gets married, I don't know how lively the backyard of the palace will be." Gu Xiyan asked with a light smile .

As for Zhou Mu, she really wasn't worried at all.

Even if there were ten more princesses from Yongjia, it would be impossible for Zhou Mu to like him, and Zhou Mu was definitely not Zhou Xing's type, she had absolute confidence in Zhou Mu.

"Even though Second Sister's words are not pleasant, they are the truth. Big Sister, don't take Second Sister's kindness as a donkey." Liu Junyan spoke for Liu Chaoyan as a matter of course.

Gu Xiyan didn't waste any more words.

She felt that it would be more realistic to take out all the money in the pockets of the Liu family sisters later.

When the sisters of the Liu family saw that Gu Xiyan didn't accept the offer, they thought it was because Gu Xiyan was afraid.

Princess Yongjia talked to Zhou Mu from time to time, but Zhou Mu didn't give Princess Yongjia a wink, let alone answer the conversation, which made Princess Yongjia extremely ashamed.

She was about to have a seizure when Wu Tong had already started auctioning off the first dish.

Gu Xiyan held up the sign without hesitation: "Five hundred taels!"

When she offered the price, the audience was in an uproar.

Gu Xiyan is simply not giving others a way out. Once the price is so high, who dares to raise the price easily?

Zhou Mu's gaze was also fixed on Gu Xiyan's face, he knew this girl's temperament, she was never such a flamboyant person, unless she was interested in this dish, or she had other purposes.

That being the case, he will have to help her raise the price later and give her a helping hand.

As for yellow and white things like gold and silver, he has never been short of them.

The others were still hesitating, but Liu Huiyan was in a hurry, because Zhou Mu was also there, and she needed Zhou Mu to impress her deeply.

At that moment, she raised the price without hesitation: "Six hundred taels!"

She just yelled out, and Zhou Mu looked over. It was just a light glance, but it made her feel elated, making her even more sure that she was right.

"Eight hundred taels!" Gu Xiyan raised the price.

Liu Huiyan couldn't hold back the smile on her face.

Gu Xiyan dared to bid wildly because she borrowed 5,000 taels of silver from her grandmother. She only had 1,000 taels of silver on her body, and she had spent the entrance fee before, so where did she get so much money to bid?

But losing to Gu Xiyan in front of Zhou Mu, she was really not happy.

She whispered to Liu Meiyan: "My sister will lend me some money later, I want to take a picture of this dish."

No one can lose to Gu Xiyan, that's what she thought.

Liu Miyan quietly looked at her purse. She only brought five hundred taels in total, so she was the poorest among the sisters.

"One thousand taels!" Liu Huiyan raised a sign to increase the price.

Seeing this scene from a distance, Su Ho shook his head and sneered: "The sisters of the Liu family are all stupid and rich."

Is the most delicious dish worth spending so much money to photograph? No brains.

"The sisters of the Liu family are indeed stupid, but Miss Gu is different." It was Xu Yanqing who spoke, and Su Ho was sitting at the adjacent table.

He felt that Gu Xiyan's way of raising the price was particularly cool.

Zhou Mu originally wanted to help Gu Xiyan, but seeing Liu Huiyan meddling, he suddenly felt that since it was between the sisters of the Liu family and this girl, it was better for the girl to resolve it by herself.

Later, if he likes any dish, he can buy it at a high price and give it to the girl to taste.

"What's the difference? They're just as stupid!" Bao and Princess suddenly held up a sign and said, "Five thousand taels!!"

Hearing this, Su Ho almost spit out the tea in his mouth.

I just said that the sisters of the Liu family are stupid and have a lot of money, here comes another stupid one. She is a princess, so she really has so much money that she has nowhere to spend it.
