Hmph, she has a temper too.
He was arguing with her like that outside the mansion gate, but now he wants to eat her cooking? Are you kidding me?
She felt that Xie Jingrun just didn't like her and was deliberately trying to make things difficult for her.
Upon hearing this, Changlin immediately became somewhat troubled, "But..."
Rong Qingqing didn't want to make things difficult for him, so after thinking for a moment, she said, "I'm really tired today. How about this, you can have someone go to Wangchunlou and bring back some dishes. I know your lord likes steamed pork with rice flour, and the chef at Wangchunlou makes it better than mine. He'll definitely be satisfied."
Seeing that she really didn't want to do it, Changlin had no choice but to do as she said and order a few dishes from Wangchunlou.
However, he couldn't help but wonder why his master, who had never been particular about food before, would suddenly want to eat the old lady's cooking.
Is the master really just trying to torment the old lady?
But the master isn't such a free person, so why does he always pick on the old lady?
Evening, Qingxing Garden.
After setting the food on the table, Changlin went to his study to invite Xie Jingrun over for a meal.
Xie Jingrun sat down at the table, looked at the food, and frowned. "Did Rong Qingqing make this?"
Changlin secretly groaned, "No, the old lady said she was busy all day and too tired to cook. She said she would cook for you another day. These are dishes that I ordered from Wangchunlou."
Upon hearing this, Xie Jingrun instantly lost his appetite.
"Who told you to order food from Wangchunlou?" The voice was very displeased. That brat Rong Qingqing dared to refuse to cook for him. She's got some nerve!
"The old lady said that she knew you liked Wangchunlou's steamed pork with rice flour, so she suggested that I order some from Wangchunlou," Changlin said truthfully, not daring to hide anything.
Xie Jingrun paused for a moment. How did she know he liked steamed pork with rice flour?
After a moment, he picked up his chopsticks and said, "I understand, you can go now."
Changlin felt as if he had been granted a pardon, but at the same time, he was somewhat surprised. His master's expression was too calm. He thought he would be angry, but he wasn't.
Just as Changlin was about to reach the door, Xie Jingrun instructed, "Remember to give the bill to the old lady and have her pay."
Upon hearing this, Changlin stumbled and almost fell.
Is the master serious?
Or did he mishear?
"master……"
"Go now!" Xie Jingrun commanded in a deep voice.
Now, Changlin no longer needed to confirm; he hadn't misheard.
Xie Jingrun ate his meal elegantly, but what he was thinking was, "That brat Rong Qingqing dares not to cook for him, so let's make her feel the pinch."
Qinfangyuan.
When Changlin arrived, Rong Qingqing was eating.
She set aside a small kitchen in her yard, and she would cook for herself whenever she had free time.
Tonight, she cooked two dishes and made a soup herself.
Just as they were enjoying their meal, Xingchun came in and said, "Madam, the head of the Changlin Guards has arrived."
"Oh, is there something wrong with him?" Rong Qingqing frowned. Chang Lin's sudden appearance couldn't be anything good.
Thinking about Xie Jingrun's request for her to cook in the evening, she had a bad feeling.
Xingchun handed over a bill, saying, "The head of the Changlin Guard said that the Marquis asked me to give it to you."
Rong Qingqing took a look and her lips twitched slightly.
That jerk Xie Jingrun, does he expect her to pay for a meal?
She slammed the bill on the table and continued eating.
Only after he had eaten his fill did he turn around and take out three taels of silver, which he then handed to Changlin.
"Keep the rest of the money, and brew another pot of wine for the Marquis."
