Chapter 79 Tonight, the Empress Cooks

It was already afternoon when 'Big Pillow Li' Li Xingyue left Lingqi Pavilion.

Watching the carriage that Li Xingyue was riding in leave.

Su Changan turned around and returned to the yard, thinking that the daughters of wealthy families have their own worries, and those of poor backgrounds have their own worries.

It does prove the saying that as long as one is alive, there will always be worries.

But Su Changan thought about it.

Whether or not to worry seems to vary from person to person.

But Su Changan didn't think about it too much. What's the point of thinking about it? It would only make him bored. It would be enough to just sigh occasionally.

After seeing Li Xingyue off, it’s about time for me to practice calligraphy.

Su Changan looked at the cat: "Cat?"

Maomao raised his eyes to look at Su Changan, but seemed to know what Su Changan wanted him to do, and said: "You can let me practice calligraphy with you, but don't let me see it. You write so ugly and yet you insist on asking me to see it, saying that it has become better. Do you have any shame?"

Su Changan thought about it and nodded, "Okay."

Maomao looked at Su Changan in confusion, wondering whether she should refuse outright.

then

Su Changan and Maomao walked towards the study.

But only after entering the study did Su Changan say, "Look, what I'm going to copy today is this calligraphy. I think the words I write today will definitely look good. I'll show it to you later."

The cat wants to escape.

But he found the door was locked and could only look at Su Changan coldly. He remembered this grudge.

Xuan Xia and the others went about their business. After all, Miss Li Xingyue had brought so many medicinal herbs and other things, and they all needed to be sorted.

The medicinal materials naturally have to be moved to the cat's room.

but

Regarding moving the medicinal materials to Mao Mao's room, Xun Xia and others were extremely hesitant, and finally Xun Xia was chosen by drawing lots.

It’s not that they have any problem with cats or anything, on the contrary, they like cats very much.

But

There were either bugs, geckos, or even dead toads in the cat's room. It was really difficult to get them to go to the cat's room.

Zhou Qianhong glanced at the study, thought for a moment, and then looked at Yan Ruyu: "Deputy Commander, do you want to inform His Majesty of these things?"

Yan Ruyu shook her head: "His Majesty said that there is no need to report today's events."

Zhou Qianhong nodded, but thought for a moment: "But although Miss Changan and Miss Xingyue did not have any physical contact today, they did have some verbal contact."

Speaking of which

After thinking about it suddenly, Zhou Qianhong discovered that Su Changan seemed to be so gentle to many people, there were just some small differences depending on the circumstances.

Thinking of this, Zhou Qianhong clasped his fists towards Yan Ruyu and said, "I was worrying too much."

Yan Ruyu nodded, but glanced at the study.

I remembered that Li Xingyue just called Su Changan "Sister Changan".

Su Changan also told Li Xingyue that she could use rouge, but her skin was fair, so she could just apply a little pink on the freckles. He also taught Li Xingyue other makeup techniques.

Also, the scene where Su Changan teaches Li Xingyue how to make improved shortbread, etc.

Think of these

Yan Ruyu sighed and looked at Su Changan who had picked up a pen and started practicing calligraphy. She wondered whether she should tell Su Changan to go to His Majesty and admit her mistake herself.

Otherwise, His Majesty will lose his temper.

Yan Ruyu.

worry!

…

On the carriage, there was a food box next to Li Xingyue. In it naturally were the shortbreads that Su Changan had given her. As for the two small boxes next to it, they were the rouge made by Su Changan, which were also given to Li Xingyue.

Li Xingyue was in a good mood. Although she thought that she pretended to be a scholar in there, she was exposed and embarrassed at the beginning.

But I thought about what Su Changan said to me.

She threw away all those embarrassing things, and she also felt that if she was not embarrassed and her pretending was successful, she might not be so close to Su Changan.

Changan Sister

Thinking of the name, Li Xingyue pursed her lips and smiled secretly.

However, when he saw the nanny sitting opposite him looking at him and smiling, he immediately coughed.

But after thinking of something, he looked at the maid and asked, "Mammy, do you know what Si Wuxie is?"

This old nanny is the one who watched Li Xingyue grow up. Now that she is old, she has been kept in the Li Mansion and rarely comes out to serve others.

However, this time when Li Xingyue got into trouble, Li Jiulang still asked this person to come out and take care of her.

When the old nanny heard Li Xingyue's question, she smiled and said, "Miss, you are joking. How can someone like me understand such a scholarly statement?"

Li Xingyue smiled slightly: "Sister Chang'an said that a young girl's thoughts are innocent. She asked me to go back and talk to my father, and then decide whether I should put on a different face in the future. She also said that the way I am now is good enough."

When the old nanny heard this, she was stunned. She had only heard what people outside said about Su Changan. Today, she just took a look at him and then waited in the carriage.

But now that she heard her young lady say this, she thought about it. She didn't understand the big principles, but since she mentioned the young lady's original appearance, it was good.

So thinking about it, this Miss Chang'an must be a young lady worthy of respect.

but

The old lady looked at Li Xingyue's expression, thought for a moment and then jokingly said, "Miss, are you in love?"

Li Xingyue was stunned and didn't understand for a moment, but when she thought about it carefully, her face turned red: "Mammy, what nonsense are you talking about! How can I like it!"

When thinking this, Su Changan's beautiful face appeared in his mind, and then he said, "We have only met three times, how can I fall in love with him? And the person I want to find must be a man. I am the only one in the Li family now, so I must find a man to marry into the family. How can I learn from other families with many children and not think about these things? And the person I want to find must be educated, otherwise, if I can't read, I won't be able to teach my children to read in the future."

"And you have to be caring, be able to help your father, and most importantly, know a few strange things to make me laugh."

Speaking of which

Li Xingyue was stunned for a moment, and after thinking carefully, she seemed to be talking about Su Changan, but when she thought of Su Changan being a girl, she sighed: "Oh, it would be better if it was a boy."

But after saying that, she looked at the nanny and smiled: "She is just a sister now."

As she said this, Li Xingyue thought of how Su Changan was particularly polite to her today. Although she loved him very much, it was just like today.

The old lady just kept smiling and looking at Li Xingyue like this.

Think about it, how long has it been?

It’s been more than ten years, it seems.

Ever since the lady passed away, the young lady seemed to have never been so happy. Even if she laughed occasionally, it was only to make the old man happy.

Thinking of this, the old lady felt that she should bow to and express her gratitude whenever she saw Miss Chang'an in the future.

but

Li Xingyue thought about it for a while and said to herself in confusion: "Can a gentleman's openness be connected with a girl's innocent thoughts? It always feels wrong, but Sister Changan said that they can be connected."

The old nanny didn't understand what Li Xingyue said, but after thinking for a while, she asked, "Miss, aren't we going to the Queen Mother's today?"

Li Xingyue was stunned for a moment, then smiled and shook her head: "No, I won't go again. Aunt hates me, and I don't need to go to her and pretend to like her."

The old nanny was puzzled, but nodded. It would be a bad idea not to go because there were many rules there, and she didn't seem to like the empress dowager very much.

Ever since she was a child, she has looked unpleasant.

But when the old nanny thought about the last sentence her eldest daughter said, she felt more and more uncomfortable.

She even felt a little sad, because she remembered that the young lady treated her aunt like a mother.

…

In Xingqing Palace, the Queen Mother looked at the food on the table and smiled playfully: "Leaving directly?"

Xiang Hong nodded: "Yes."

The Queen Mother looked at Xiang Hong with some surprise: "That child must have come to me before entering the palace. My brother actually told Xingyue."

After saying that, he shook his head and said, "That shouldn't be the case. He hates to see Xingyue sad. If Xingyue knew about this."

Having said this, the Queen Mother smiled.

Then

Bang!!

But the Queen Mother was so angry that she overturned the table.

Many colorful snacks on the table were scattered all over the floor in an instant.

The sound of plates and bowls breaking was even louder than the crackling sound, and then suddenly disappeared.

Then, the Queen Mother smiled and looked at Xiang Hong: "First, he opposed his own people in the court, and then offered Zhao Xiaojia one million, six hundred thousand, and eight million. Is he crazy?! Or has he really surrendered to Your Majesty? He doesn't really think that he can save the Li family this way, right? At this time, does Your Majesty have the tolerance to tolerate a child like him?"

Xianghong had already bowed hurriedly when the table was overturned just now.

The palace maids on the other side were so frightened that they knelt down and dared not utter a word.

Because they know

The more the Queen Mother behaved like this, the more furious she became.

The Queen Mother still had a smile on her face: "Let's meet him and ask him if it would be better?"

Xianghong listened but didn't dare to answer, or rather, she couldn't answer, because this tone was usually heard when the Empress Dowager was talking to herself.

The Queen Mother immediately shook her head: "I guess you won't see me anymore."

Then he immediately said, "Let Xiaojia go to the Grand Tutor. If the Grand Tutor is willing, I can give in, but Xiaojia must go in. No, the Grand Tutor is even more greedy than Su Wenqing. When my father resigned from his post, he was the one who tried every means to kill me. Ask Xiaojia how much money he has. If that doesn't work, ask Li Jiulang to buy it?"

Xianghong lowered her head and dared not answer.

Because she knew that this was not really an order to her.

But the Queen Mother was completely angry.

…

When Su Changan finished practicing calligraphy, it was already late.

He also knew that it was almost time for him to cook for the empress.

But as soon as I opened the study door, the unhappy cat rushed out of the room and said, "Don't even think about me practicing calligraphy with you anymore, it's too ugly!"

Yan Ruyu was helpless.

Su Changan shook his head and sighed: "This kid doesn't know what's good."

To be honest, after practicing for so many days, Su Changan found that his handwriting had improved a lot.

At least when writing the character "一", it won't be twisted, but at least it will be slightly straight.

Yan Ruyu looked at Su Changan and said, "His Majesty just sent someone to give you a note."

Su Changan was stunned for a moment and took it.

"I've cooked for you tonight, just wait for the delicious food! It's so delicious that you'll die!!"
