Cannon fodder can become a god if she dies a hundred times

Chapter 138 Salty or Sweet?

King Pingnan spent his entire life in military service and performed countless heroic deeds, but unfortunately, he had such a son.

Xie Shiwan's marriage was cancelled, and the King of Pingnan was inevitably involved in the process. However, because Duan Heng repeatedly emphasized that he did not want Shiwan to know, she always thought it was a blessing of luck.

Liu Xiu was also an unlucky child as he met this father and son.

Ever since the engagement, they always felt a spooky vibe when they returned home every day, and ghosts appeared in the middle of the night, so the Liu family quickly went to find a master to solve the problem.

After some investigation, the master set his sights on the engagement token. It was this thing that brought negative energy to the Liu family. If it were a family with a large population, it would definitely be able to suppress it, but the Liu family had a small population and had no chance of being with it. For the sake of the future peace of the Liu family's house, it was suggested that this thing be put where it should go.

So the Liu family quickly took the token and went to visit the Xie family, repeatedly stating that their family did not have such good fortune to keep it.

Prime Minister Xie was furious and threw away all the things sent by the Liu family, indicating that he would cut off all ties with them for the rest of his life. The incident became such a big deal that the emperor also paid attention to it.

Because the two families were already incompatible, at the beginning in the court, Tutor Liu could still tolerate it, thinking that after all, it was he who proposed to cancel the engagement. However, Prime Minister Xie's scolding was too harsh, and Tutor Liu was not a good-tempered person either. He directly scolded Prime Minister Xie in the court, making the court a mess.

In the end, the emperor wanted to repair the relationship between the two families. After all, he was always quarreled every time he went to court and he couldn't stand it anymore. So he promised the Xie family some benefits, and this farce stopped.

After this happened, Duan Heng ate five bowls of rice in one meal. Zhang Xianxian quickly reminded him that it would be difficult to digest the food if he ate too much.

Duan Heng was just busy laughing and had another bowl of rice. He was so full that he was still walking outside in the middle of the night. He couldn't sleep.

The next day, he began to develop new delicious food and completely abandoned the pastry styles he had made before. He said that this thing was no longer worthy of Shiwan and he must make something more delicious.

Zhang Xianxian was quite happy about it, after all, all the failed things made by Duan Heng went into her stomach.

Although Duan Heng was not satisfied with these failed products, Zhang Xianxian thought they were still delicious.

If he loses all his wealth due to love in the future, he can set up a stall to sell delicious food, and there will definitely be a lot of people patronizing him.

King Pingnan was very angry at first. After all, how could his son learn from women and tinker in the kitchen?

It was not until Zhang Xianxian placed the delicacy in front of King Pingnan that King Pingnan was disdainful at first, but he could not resist the aroma. After taking a bite, he couldn't stop eating.

Because, he had never tasted this kind of flavor since the princess passed away. He didn't expect that his son would inherit his mother's good cooking skills.

Alas, although he did not inherit his mantle and become a brave soldier who killed the enemies, it was also good to live a peaceful and happy life, thought the King of Pingnan.

So every time Duan Heng successfully prepared a dish, he would also send a portion to King Pingnan.

King Pingnan said that he would help him taste the wine and give Duan Heng some advice.

But the King of Pingnan likes salty food. As far as Zhang Xianxian knows, Xie Shiwan likes sweet food more. But as a lady from a noble family, she will pretend that food she doesn't like tastes good. Zhang Xianxian doesn't intend to say anything. It's good to cause some trouble for this love-brained man.

Zhang Xianxian spent seven peaceful days happily. Unfortunately, Duan Heng's gourmet food research and development was finished. He asked Zhang Xianxian to continue looking for opportunities to send it to Xie Shiwan, and gave a strict order that Xie Shiyin must not eat it.

Even if he had to throw it away, he couldn't give it to her to eat, because Xie Shiyin and Shiwan had a bad relationship. If Shiwan knew about it, she would be so disappointed in him.

Moreover, Duan Heng forced Zhang Xianxian to swear that she would never tell anyone that he had kissed Xie Shiyin's hairpin or that Xie Shiyin had eaten the food he made.

Zhang Xianxian just wanted to say that no one knew who you were, so what would it matter if they knew? However, under pressure from Duan Heng's tearful attack and his rogue behavior of lying on the ground and crying if he didn't agree, saying that Zhang Xianxian bullied him, she still agreed.

It was no longer possible to use the kite, so Zhang Xianxian could only wait for the opportunity for Xie Shiwan to go out alone.

She had passed by the gate of Xie's house five times, but Xie Shiwan still didn't show up. Zhang Xianxian was almost exhausted. This was too difficult for her. She would blackmail Duan Heng when she returned.

After walking for another half an hour under the scorching sun, Zhang Xianxian estimated that the ice was almost melted and would soon lose its taste, so she decided to go back first.

But at this moment, Xie Shiwan came out.

Zhang Xianxian hurried over and said, "I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"Didn't you say I would come out to fly a kite? It's hard for you to wait for me under the scorching sun." Shi Wan looked at Zhang Xianxian's sweaty head and felt a little pity for her. She took off a bracelet from her wrist and put it on Zhang Xianxian's hand.

Zhang Xianxian quickly said that it was not possible. This thing was quite expensive, translucent, white and warm, not ostentatious, but it gave a cool feeling.

But under Xie Shiwan's repeated requests, she still wore it. Zhang Xianxian was a little worried that she would accidentally break the bracelet, so she planned to give it to Duan Heng as soon as she got back.

"I didn't see you come out when we were flying the kite before. Did something happen?"

"This, I had some conflicts with my sister at home, which led to my father putting me in solitary confinement." After taking a bite, Xie Shiwan found it a little too sweet, so she put it down.

Just as Zhang Xianxian was about to say something comforting, a voice came.

"What's this delicious?"

Xie Shiyin trotted over, but she didn't have the noble and elegant temperament like Xie Shiwan.

Before Zhang Xianxian could react, he put the food into his mouth.

Zhang Xianxian felt something was wrong.

"This thing is quite delicious. It turns out that you listened to my advice and put less sugar. The salty taste is much better than the sweet one." Xie Shiyin ate it bite by bite.

Zhang Xianxian had already anticipated that Duan Heng would cry more miserably than ever this time.

I could hardly hold the food box in my hand, and for a moment I didn’t know whether to throw it away or not.

"When did you become such a good relationship?" Xie Shiwan was full of suspicion towards Zhang Xianxian.

Xie Shiyin spoke first, "It was the time when you were locked up in the Buddhist temple. I didn't expect that Ah Cui knew my taste just from that time. It really surprised me."

Zhang Xianxian's heart was broken. This time it was really over.

Xie Shiwan's face gradually began to turn pale, probably because she was angry.
