Yu Zimei then stepped into Ye's house. After waiting in the main hall for about half an incense stick, Ye Jingxiao slowly appeared.
"I'm sorry to have kept Miss Yu waiting for a long time." Ye Jingxiao also intended to let Yu Zimei wait for a while.
He was having his meal early in the morning and would not stop eating just because of her arrival.
He deliberately let Yu Zimei sit and wait, and also wanted her to know his identity.
"Mr. Ye, you are too polite." Yu Zimei immediately waved her hand and said, "This is a set of the Mohist Four Treasures of the Study. Please accept it, Mr. Ye!"
"Oh, it's from the Mohist school?"
"Replying to Master Ye, that's right."
Yu Zimei gently lifted the red silk cloth.
Sure enough, a scent of ink filled the air. "It really is from the Mo family. Xu Qingfeng, take it."
"Yes, master!" Xu Qingfeng immediately took the four treasures of the study from Luo Zhong's hand and stepped aside.
Afterwards, Yu Zimei asked the guards to lead her to the school and sit down to wait.
At this time, Luo Zhong said: "Congratulations, Miss, you finally have a gift that catches Mr. Ye's eye."
"It's all your credit, great!" Yu Zimei was still very happy in her heart. She was worried that Ye Jingxiao would not come out to meet her, so even if she had gifts, she would not be able to send them to Ye Mansion.
"However, Miss still managed to coax the little brat from the Ning Mansion. If she hadn't spoken to Young Master Ye beforehand this time, even the four treasures of the Mo family's study wouldn't have been able to enter the Ye residence."
"Humph, the little girl is only one and a half years old, what does she know? I brought some snacks from Xiangmiju to coax her, that's enough."
"Yes, Miss." Luo Zhong immediately retreated: "Miss, someone is coming."
Yu Zimei immediately sat up straight.
"Hey, when did this extra person come?" Ning Zike carried Ning Xiaotang into the school.
"Oh, it's Sister Yu. Third brother, she's Yu Zimei, and she also came to the academy to study. All the handkerchiefs made by my mother were sent to the Yu residence."
Yu Zimei immediately changed her sharp expression and instead smiled gently as she bowed, "Hello, Third Young Master Ning."
"You're welcome. Please sit down." Ning Zike immediately bowed, which was considered a return of courtesy.
The one-hour class was finished quickly. At around 9:00 a.m., Master Zheng went back to rest, and the students went their separate ways to play.
At this time, Ning Xiaotang said cutely: "I have finished my homework, I have something to do first!"
Yueman was responsible for delivering Ning Xiaotang's homework to Master Zheng's room.
Ning Xiaotang took the secret guards and went into the mountains.
"Ling Hu, you are so strong, hold me!" Ning Xiaotang immediately said in a cute tone.
"Yes!" Ling Hu immediately squatted down and picked up Ning Xiaotang.
"Miss, what are you going into the mountains for?" Ling Hu and several secret guards immediately jumped into the mountains.
"I want to see what treasures are waiting for me to discover in the mountains." Ning Xiaotang was also looking forward to discovering some good things.
At this time, Ling Hu said, "Miss, going into the mountains is risky. How about having a few of my men go hunting for some prey? I'll escort you back to the village."
"No, I want to go into the mountains and take a look myself. Although the prey can be sold for a lot of silver, it is also dangerous to let you hunt it."
Ning Xiaotang saw an endless natural field in Ling Hu's arms.
"Oh, this is a konjac field!"
"Girl, what is konjac?"
"This is a food that can be made into a dish. If you don't know how to prepare it, you can't eat it at all. But after preparing it, stir-fry it with pickled cabbage and add onions, ginger, and garlic, it can be said to be a great dish to relieve summer heat and lighten your appetite!"
Ling Hu said from the tree branch, "Miss, is this entire field of konjac?"
“Yes, the whole piece is full of treasures!”
Ning Xiaotang immediately said excitedly: "Well, you secret guards will split into two groups and come here to pick konjac. Only the big ones are needed. Leave the small ones, as small as fists, for now. Understand?"
Ling Hu immediately said, "Yes, young lady!"
Then Ning Xiaotang's secret guards began to be very busy all day long.
I saw a team of carriages and horses transporting buckets of whole konjac from Ningxiahe Village to distribute to various towns in Qingye Kingdom.
At this time, the night house
"Sir, you've already had your second bowl of rice. Is this pickled konjac really that delicious?"
"Try it later, it will definitely taste good."
This is konjac cooked according to Miss Ning's method. Although it takes a lot of effort, it's really good. This pickled konjac will bring my restaurant a lot of money!"
"Congratulations, master! Congratulations, master!" Xu Qingfeng immediately congratulated happily.
"You can also go down and try this dish."
"Yes, master." Xu Qingfeng immediately went aside, took a bowl of rice, put a piece of pickled konjac in the bowl, and ate it in one bite.
"Hmm! Hmm! It smells so good!" Xu Qingfeng was not hungry originally, but at this moment he felt that he could eat another bowl of rice!
In Ning's house
There was also a table of pickled konjac with brown rice. Ning Xiaotang said excitedly, "Everyone, try this new dish! It's our family's treasure!"
The whole family enjoyed the meal, except Hai Moying and Qian Fangcao, who did not eat very fast.
After dinner, Hai Moying and Qian Fangcao unexpectedly came to the kitchen at the same time.
"Why are you here too?" Qian Fangcao was chewing a steamed bun.
"Second Aunt, are you here to steal food too?"
"Humph, I've had enough of that pickled cabbage. I don't even like it!"
Hai Moying took a big white steamed bun and started eating, complaining unhappily.
"Then, Second Aunt, have you ever thought about the fact that if you were in charge of the household chores, wouldn't our Ning family have meat to eat every day?"
Hai Moying immediately raised her eyes and said, "Hey, Aunt Qian, the old lady is still alive and well, and there is also Chen Ya above her. How can such an important task of managing the household fall on my head?"
"Don't worry about this, Second Aunt. Let me handle it. As long as Second Aunt agrees and takes care of the household expenses, I can eat meat every day!"
When Hai Moying thought of the white silver waving at her, her eyes immediately lit up and she said, "Don't worry, although I can't give you all the delicacies from land and sea, I can still make sure you have meat for every meal!"
"That's fine. I'll go back to my room first!" Qian Fangcao bowed and left.
Outside the kitchen, she said, "Hai Moying doesn't have any bad intentions and is easy to coax.
As long as she takes control of the household, then I can have whatever I want. It’s like the household is in my hands, Qian Fangcao.”
Qian Fangcao felt very happy when she thought about it and went to her little house.
But at this time Yueman appeared from under a small tree on the side of the kitchen and heard Qian Fangcao's words.
Ning Xiaotang's courtyard
"My dear, it is absolutely true. That's what Concubine Qian told the Second Young Master's wife."
"Humph, this is outrageous! It seems Qian Fangcao has more ulterior motives than she actually wants to control the entire Ning family through Hai Moying."
Ning Xiaotang, who had a baby voice, was already feeling alarmed.
