105 Osmanthus Cake
"Your Majesty, please!" Out of sight, out of mind. Xiao Huanshan could no longer care about his disobedient daughter.
I had to change the subject quickly and separate the two of them first. I couldn't bear to watch them even for a moment!
How could a nice little cabbage like mine be taken away by Zhu...His Majesty!
Pei Yuning turned around and went towards the small attic again. Seeing this, Xiao Huanshan hurriedly followed.
Xiao Tingyun looked worried.
"Don't worry about them. Girl, come here and try this osmanthus cake."
Shui Bo smiled indifferently and waved for her to come over and sit down.
Xiao Tingyun was not in the mood to eat at the moment. Although they were both monarchs, his father was probably very angry at the moment and might say something offensive out of impulse.
"Hey, go and take your young lady over there, don't stare at it, you can't see anything."
Shui Bo called Lvzhi, who was closest to him, to persuade them and told them not to worry about the two of them.
Luzhi was undecided, and after some hesitation, she went over to the young lady and said, "Young lady, let's sit down and take a rest. We don't know when the Second Master will come out."
"Yes, Miss, just sit and wait for them. Don't worry about the Second Master..." Cai Xing lowered her voice as she spoke, "His Majesty will certainly be more tolerant for your sake."
Although she lowered her voice, everyone present heard it, including Qing Wu and the others.
One can't help but sneer, their master is not the kind of person who would change his principles because of a beauty!
Xiao Tingyun glared at Cai Xing. How could she talk like that? !
Don't let people think that you are a woman who brings disaster to the country and the people. Otherwise, they might unite to petition for her execution in order to purge the emperor's side!
Shui Bo pretended to be nothing, smiled kindly and asked her to sit down, "Come on, your father just drank this tea, and he also said it was good, why don't you try it and see if it really suits your taste?"
Xiao Tingyun had no choice but to be pulled to sit down by Luzhi.
"This tea is the tea leaves that I picked from the mountain myself, and I roasted it myself."
Shui Bo poured her a cup and asked her to taste it.
The tea is light green in color, and the cups are specially designed in the style of sunlight shining on green bamboo, which complements the tea and creates a beautiful feeling of sunshine after rain.
There is a unique flavor in this small courtyard.
After thanking him, Xiao Tingyun took it and took a sip. It tasted slightly bitter.
But after swallowing it, there is a light aftertaste, and the minty freshness instantly dilutes the heat of the autumn.
Xiao Tingyun's eyes lit up, "It's really good!"
“Hahahaha…” Shui Bo clapped his hands and laughed happily, “It seems that the tea fruit was really successful this time!”
"Try this with some snacks!" Shui Bo pointed to a box of new snacks expectantly, "Your father hasn't had this cake yet, you try it first!"
When you open it, you will see a light layer of osmanthus sprinkled on the osmanthus cake, and a layer of red bean paste inside. The slightly sweet taste mixed with the rich aroma of osmanthus is a perfect match!
Xiao Tingyun ate a piece of cake carefully, drank a sip of tea, and finally couldn't help but praise, "Your cakes are better than the ones I make at home!"
Shui Bo said mysteriously, "I made this tea, but I didn't make the cakes!"
"Oh? Which chef made that?"
She makes such delicious pastries. Wouldn’t it be great if we could recruit someone to make pastries for her?
Shui Bo smiled without saying anything and pointed at the man inside.
Xiao Tingyun turned his head and saw that he was pointing at the small door that Pei Yuning and his father had entered together.
Xiao Tingyun couldn't help but feel disappointed. It turned out that she came from the palace. No wonder...
But soon Xiao Tingyun perked up again. Since he couldn't dig the person over, he would eat more. Thinking of this, he asked Shui Bo, "Can I have another piece?"
"nature!"
Shui Bo pushed the cakes in front of her and said, "If you like it, eat more. You can take some back later!"
"Thank you, Mr. Shui!" Xiao Tingyun said as he took another piece. He would savor it slowly with tea, which would give it a different feeling. However, he would not use it when he took it back.
Xiao Tingyun ate a piece of cake and drank a cup of tea to calm down. All his worries disappeared, and he was left with only a sigh: delicious food really deserves those who love to eat!
Soon, Pei Yuning and Xiao Huanshan came out one after another.
Xiao Tingyun put down his teacup, stood up, and walked towards his father. When he brushed past Pei Yuning, he just pursed his lips and nodded. Pei Yuning's eyes dimmed, and then he saw the woman passing by him like a gust of wind.
Xiao Tingyun soon stood beside Xiao Huanshan, "Father."
Xiao Huanshan had a complicated expression and didn't know what to say to his daughter.
"Are you okay?" Xiao Tingyun asked in a low voice.
Xiao Huanshan forced a smile and shook his head, "It's okay."
fine? It's okay, why do you look so complicated and ugly?
Could it be that Pei Yuning said something? Or is she so angry that she plans to remove her father from his official position?
"What did you talk about?" Xiao Tingyun asked carefully.
Xiao Huanshan patted her hand in relief, "It's nothing, let's go home."
Xiao Tingyun looked back and forth at the two of them, but didn't find anything unusual.
While the father and daughter were talking, Shui Bo quietly approached Pei Yuning and asked in a low voice, "What? Not done?!"
Pei Yuning lowered his eyes and said nothing.
"Tsk tsk tsk...you're really good!" Shui Bo raised his eyebrows and laughed at him mercilessly. If he couldn't even handle his future father-in-law, how could he handle other people?
"Look at the way Lord Xiao dotes on his daughter. I'm afraid he won't easily give in to your status! And that girl isn't a vain person. If she knows your status, she'll inevitably stay away from you!"
Shui Bo’s analysis made sense. He had just asked Lord Xiao and learned that he was from the Dingbei Marquis’ Mansion.
I had heard that the sickly third daughter in the family was unexpectedly favored by his young master.
He thought the girl was pretty, but he was wondering how his own son, who was such a taciturn person, could attract the girl's heart.
Alas... But on second thought, if it can really succeed, it will be a great comfort in life.
Pei Yuning glanced at him sideways, "Are you done?"
Oh, people are angry!
It seems that he really hasn't figured it out, and Shui Bo wisely shut himself up.
Xiao Huanshan has already asked Xiao Tingyun to follow him back home.
Xiao Tingyun couldn't find out what to ask, so he just nodded and agreed, "Okay."
Ask again when you get home!
There is nothing more to say to Pei Yuning now.
After all, their identities are a matter of difference, and it cannot be resolved in a short time.
Give both of you some time to think it over.
Xiao Huanshan took Xiao Tingyun and said goodbye to Pei Yuning, "I'll take my leave."
"I'll take my leave now." Xiao Tingyun said as she followed her father.
Pei Yuning's hands behind his back turned the Buddhist beads faster.
Xiao Huanshan bent his body and did not hear any response from His Majesty, so he had to keep his posture quietly.
However, Xiao Tingyun quietly raised his head and glanced at Pei Yuning. Seeing his cold face, he was stunned.
Pei Yuning quickly adjusted his mood and said after a while, "Yeah."
Xiao Huanshan felt relieved and said to his daughter in a gentle voice, "Let's go."
Pei Yuning's cold face just now made Xiao Tingyun stunned for a long time, and he forgot to look away.
It was not until his father's voice reached his ears that Xiao Tingyun blinked and said, "Okay..."
The courtyard returned to its peaceful state as it had been a few hours ago.
Before Shui Bo could say anything else, Pei Yuning strode out. Shui Bo shook his head helplessly, "This guy..."
I can't bear to let others do it but I don't say it out loud.
Even though he became the emperor, he was unwilling to let anyone enter the palace directly. It seemed that he told her the secret. Did he really trust that girl that much? ?
Even when I made sweet-scented osmanthus cake for him, I didn't let him know...
