Chapter 108 Choice
After Lu Shiyan left, Jiang Tangtang took a long time to calm down. She entered the space and started making scented candles.
The candle wicks needed for making candles had already dried up, and Lu Shili also helped to retrieve the special small candles that were customized from the porcelain workshop.
She also made a lot of dried flowers when she entered the space a few nights ago.
Now, all you need to do is melt the beeswax and make it. After the last experiment, Jiang Tangtang found that the petals melted into the wax had a stronger fragrance and a better sleep-inducing effect, while dried flowers looked more beautiful when inserted into candles.
She decided to combine the two when making scented candles this time, so that she could maintain the beauty and achieve the effect of scented candles.
Anyway, it’s just adding a few more petals. She has plenty of space for petals, so there is no cost at all.
After Jiang Tangtang made up her mind, she took action immediately.
The space is equipped with induction cookers, stainless steel pots and other tools, so it is relatively easy to melt beeswax and make candles.
Jiang Tangtang made more than thirty candles, rubbed his neck and looked at the time. Seeing that it was getting late, he moved the finished candles out of the space and began to prepare dinner.
Looking at the baskets of taro brought today, and thinking about how long it had been since she had eaten cake, Jiang Tangtang decided to make taro yogurt cake.
Anyway, Lu Shiyan didn't know how to cook, so he didn't know what ingredients she added.
Thinking of this, Jiang Tangtang washed the taro and got busy.
However, the yogurt and milk used to make the cake had long exceeded their expiration date. However, the environment in the space was special, so even though the expiration date had passed, the milk and yogurt did not deteriorate, so Jiang Tangtang used them boldly.
However, even milk and yogurt that have passed their expiration dates are running low, so it will be difficult to get them later.
The taro yogurt cake was ready, and Jiang Tangtang also made a few main dishes.
As soon as the dishes were served, Lu Shiyan came back from outside. However, he did not come back alone, and there was a round-faced girl following him.
When the little girl saw Jiang Tangtang, she smiled and two sweet dimples appeared at the corners of her mouth.
Jiang Tangtang was stunned for a moment, and Lu Shiyan explained, "This is Guo Yu. She knows some basic martial arts. Take her with you when you go out in the future. She's more convenient and reliable than Shi Li."
Jiang Tangtang hadn't expected that he would find a bodyguard for himself after going out. While she was surprised, she also felt an inexplicable joy in her heart.
"Hello, master!" Guo Yu's face smiled sweetly, but his voice was as rough as a man's.
She bowed politely towards her and said, "Master, rest assured. As long as I, Guo Yu, am alive, I will definitely keep you safe."
Jiang Tangtang didn't know where Lu Shiyan found such a person, but she liked Guo Yu very much.
She smiled and said, "Don't call me master. I'm older than you. Just call me sister!"
Guo Yu readily said, "Hello, sister."
Jiang Tangtang smiled and said, "The meal is ready, let's eat first!"
When he heard about having dinner, Lu Shiyan felt a sense of anticipation.
He is not a greedy person, but the dishes cooked by his wife are both novel and delicious, which always give him endless surprises.
The surprise Jiang Tangtang had given him today was certainly no small one, especially the taro yogurt cake, which had a texture and appearance unlike anything he had ever seen before.
In addition to cakes, braised winter melon is also very popular.
The winter melon is braised with a little bit of chili peppers grown in the space, and it tastes particularly fragrant.
Lu Shiyan and Guo Yu were sweating profusely from the spicy food, but they couldn't stop.
"The food my sister cooked is so delicious!" Guo Yu felt extremely happy, his mouth as sweet as if he had drunk honey. After finishing the meal, he took the initiative to do housework such as washing dishes.
Jiang Tangtang turned around to clean the house.
She hadn't known Lu Shiyan would bring anyone back, so she hadn't cleaned up the extra room. She had to make arrangements for Guo Yu's accommodation.
Lu Shiyan curled his lips and stood aside, watching her busy in and out. Jiang Tangtang felt uncomfortable under his gaze and glared at him in an angry manner, "Why are you standing there like a wall?"
The smile on Lu Shiyan's lips deepened, "Look at you."
Jiang Tangtang: “…”
"You don't ask me what I did this afternoon?" Lu Shiyan put away the smile on his face, drooped his eyelashes slightly, and said slowly: "You don't ask me about my next plan?"
Jiang Tangtang hadn't intended to ask, but since he had brought it up, she had to ask, "So what are your plans?"
"The Lu family is guilty, and all their descendants will be criminals. I don't want my children to be inferior to others and be discriminated against and bullied everywhere."
Although Lu Shiyan's words were vague, his meaning was already very clear.
The Lu family's crimes were determined by the emperor. If the descendants of the Lu family do not want to be criminals in the future, either the emperor must overturn the Lu family's verdict or the emperor must be overthrown.
Since the emperor could accuse the Lu family of rebellion, it was obviously impossible for him to give the Lu family a chance to overturn the verdict, so the only option was the latter.
Although Jiang Tangtang had guessed it a long time ago, when he told her so clearly, her heart began to beat wildly.
Lu Shiyan said calmly, "Tangtang, I don't know what you're thinking right now, but if you don't want to take risks with me, you can wait until I'm ready. I'll arrange a new identity for you and send you away."
Jiang Tangtang was stunned.
She didn't expect that he had prepared a way out for her and let her choose.
She was very confused.
It is not necessarily true that she, a time traveler, has such deep feelings for him and the children that she does not care about life or death.
But they were the people she had spent the most time with since she had traveled through time. There was some affection between them. At the very least, the children were adorable...
But as a peace-loving person born in a peaceful era, she is instinctively afraid of war.
Moreover, overthrowing a dynasty is definitely a hundred or a thousand times more cruel and difficult than what is shown in TV dramas.
"No rush! Take your time to think about it. This won't happen overnight. You can wait until you have thought it through before making a decision."
After Lu Shiyan finished speaking, he changed the subject and said, "Do you want to make scented candles tonight? I'll help you!"
Jiang Tangtang: “…”
She was in no mood at the moment, so why would she make a candle? Besides, there was no way she would let him help her!
"I'm sorry!" As if he could tell she was in a bad mood, Lu Shiyan whispered, "I'm the one who's holding you back!"
"It has nothing to do with you, you don't need to apologize." Jiang Tangtang held her forehead with her hand. God knew why she traveled to this strange dynasty.
Ahhhh!
She hasn't been this irritable in a long time!
"Why don't we go out for a walk? The New Year is almost here and the night market will be open." Thinking that he seemed to have never done anything for her and now she had to face such a difficult choice, Lu Shiyan felt guilty and tried hard to make amends.
He remembered that she seemed to want to go shopping with him before, but he was not sure if she still wanted to now.
Now she...
There was no way to connect him with the person he used to be.
Jiang Tangtang also wanted to go out and change her mood, but she didn't want to be with him. Being with him would only make her feel more confused.
She said, "Not today, you should go to bed early!" After that, she returned to her room.
