The little village girl dressed as a disaster star led the whole village astray

Chapter 160 I'm here

Gu Jingzhi held Li Xi in front of him, his voice a little hoarse, "I didn't have lunch, are you hungry?"

It was not Li Xi who responded to Gu Jingzhi, but her belly.

Gollum—

Li Xi: …

Although she is not going for the dignified, generous, noble, elegant, or fresh style, this is still too embarrassing.

Which good person is like this?

Li Xi pushed Gu Jingzhi away and pretended nothing had happened. "What do you think? Of course I'm hungry. I've asked Hongtao to heat up the food." She walked to the table outside and sat down.

Gu Jingzhi didn't tease her, mainly because he was afraid that she would be angry.

He followed her and sat down beside her. "No matter how tired you are, you still have to eat. Otherwise, it will be bad for your health if you starve."

"I know, I know." Li Xi responded perfunctorily.

How could she, a doctor, not know this? But sometimes knowing is one thing and doing is another.

Just like staying up late affects your body, but who doesn’t stay up late nowadays?

Drinking and smoking are harmful to your health, and people are smoking less.

Gu Jingzhi naturally heard the perfunctory tone in her voice. He knew her well. Even though she was a girl and a doctor, she was really not particular about her life.

Although I like to eat delicious food, I can also eat simple meals.

She clearly has the conditions to pursue a higher standard of living, but she can still enjoy a simple life.

Forget it, I'll just keep a closer eye on her in the future.

She doesn't know how to take good care of her body, so just do it yourself.

Before Uncle Wu left, he specifically reminded me that Ah Xi's health was not good because she had been lacking in food and drink since childhood, so he specifically told me to take good care of her.

He also knew that Li Xi didn't have any serious health problems, and she just needed to focus on daily care and rest. But she was a person who was afraid of trouble, so she could only leave it to him, and he would supervise her in the future.

Hong Tao came in with the hot food. Seeing that the young general and the girl were already sitting at the table, she hurriedly took the food out of the lunch box and put it on the table.

"Major General, please enjoy your meal, young lady."

After Hongtao handed them the chopsticks, she stood aside.

Li Xi glanced at her, and Gu Jingzhi said, "Go down first. You don't need to serve here."

"Yes, the slaves retire."

Hongtao said as she exited the room.

"These are all famous dishes from restaurants in Beijing. Try them. If you like them, I'll take you to eat tomorrow."

Li Xi looked at the food on the table. Although it had been reheated and the presentation was not very exquisite, it smelled really good.

She tasted them one by one and said, "It tastes really good."

"Then I'll take you there to eat tomorrow."

"Did the emperor say anything when you entered the palace today?"

Gu Jingzhi glanced at her and said, "His Majesty asked me to bring you to the palace tomorrow."

"It's pretty fast."

In fact, it was still within expectations. After all, he asked me to come to Beijing this time just to see her.

"What time do we go tomorrow?" Li Xi frowned slightly. It would be better not to let her get up early. She didn't want to get up early.

"Tomorrow afternoon."

Gu Jingzhi knew her well, and as soon as he saw her frowning he knew what she was worried about. There was an early court session tomorrow, and Li Xi's identity needed to be kept secret, so it was impossible to let her go too early, otherwise, she would just have to wait there.

It’s better to go in the afternoon, so you have more time.

"It's just right that I can go out for a walk tomorrow morning and then go back to the palace after lunch."

"Oh." That's more like it. Li Xi added some green vegetables to Gu Jingzhi's plate. "Eat more spinach to replenish your blood."

Gu Jingzhi looked down at the green spinach in his bowl. This was the first time he heard that eating spinach can replenish blood. He picked up the spinach with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.

After dinner, Gu Jingzhi and Li Xi went for a walk holding hands as usual.

Although there has been no master in the Zhenbei General's Mansion all year round, and there are not many maids and servants serving inside, there are obviously more people than those near Li Xi's home at the border. In addition, the days are getting longer and darker now.

Naturally, many people saw the two of them walking hand in hand.

But obviously, neither of them was the kind of person who would care about other people's eyes, and they still walked hand in hand on the path.

"Is there anything I should be careful of when I enter the palace tomorrow?"

"Don't worry, I'm here. You just need to be yourself."

"Be yourself?" Li Xi tilted her head to look at him, signaling him with her eyes, "Are you sure?"

Although Li Xi is confident, she is not arrogant.

Although she was not afraid of imperial power, she also knew that in feudal society, imperial power was supreme.

Gu Jingzhi: "Don't worry, I'm here."

Li Xi raised an eyebrow, "Then I'll leave it to you."

Since he said so, she naturally couldn't go against his wishes.

After taking a walk, Gu Jingzhi first sent Li Xi back to the room, then came out and went to his own yard next door.

After taking a walk to help digest the food, Li Xi simply washed up and went to bed to rest.

……

The next day, after a good sleep, Li Xi opened her eyes, got up from the bed, and put on her clothes and shoes.

Hong Tao, who was outside the door, heard the noise in the room and knocked on the door, "Girl."

Li Xi tied her belt and said, "Come in."

Hong Tao came in with a basin and a towel, "Miss, I will help you wash up."

Li Xi glanced at the basin in her hand and said, "Put it there. I'll do it myself."

Although they had only been together for a short time, Hong Tao already knew that the Miss Li in front of her did not like being served, so when she heard her say that, she did not show any fear but obediently put down the basin and stepped aside.

Li Xi simply washed up and sat in front of the dressing mirror. Her newly-restored black hair fell smoothly behind her.

She can do things like washing and dressing herself, but it is indeed difficult for her to braid her hair. She usually just braids her hair casually when she is at the border. Today, she is going to meet the emperor, so she should dress up properly.

After all, she is Gu Jingzhi's fiancée now, and she doesn't want others to look down on him because of her.

Hong Tao braided Li Xi's hair and said, "Miss, the general sent the most popular dress in the capital. Wear that one today."

Li Xi glanced at the blue and purple clothes on the table and said, "Okay."

Hong Tao was very deft with her hands. She quickly fixed Li Xi's hair and put some light makeup on her.

Li Xi looked at herself in the bronze mirror. Although it was a little blurry, she could still see that she was good at tying her hair.

"Good, your craftsmanship is excellent." Li Xi has always been generous with compliments.

Hong Tao was obviously very happy to hear the girl praising her like that, "As long as the girl likes it."

While feeling happy, Hong Tao also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as she had finally found something she could do for the girl.

Li Xi had just changed into the clothes that Gu Jingzhi had sent her when Gu Jingzhi arrived.

Li Xi usually dresses however she feels comfortable. This is the first time Gu Jingzhi has seen her dressed so exquisitely.

The first time he saw Li Xi, he was stunned.
