Niohuru's expression was indifferent, as if she didn't care at all: "We'll know once it's born. What did the concubine's quarters serve at dinner last night?"
Huiyun was naturally diverted from the topic: "Last night, the concubine ate tofu and crucian carp, stewed white fungus, and a dish of eight-treasure spicy sauce."
Niohuru nodded: "Alright, order this for lunch at the kitchen as well. Order the Eight Treasure Spicy Dish for dinner, and have the kitchen prepare an extra soup."
These days, Niohuru's meals are mostly ordered by the concubine in front.
For example, Niohuru didn't quite like the taste of Eight Treasure Spicy Soup the first time she tried it, but she later started to crave it and would often ask for an extra soup.

Before we knew it, it was the end of February, and everyone's attention was focused on the east courtyard.
On the 28th, the Fourth Prince had finished his duties at the Ministry of Revenue early, but the Crown Prince pulled him aside for a long talk and even had two cups of wine with him.

There was no morning court session, and no one dared to speak ill of the Fourth Prince when he went to the Ministry of Revenue later in the day.
Su Peisheng quickly followed.
"By the way, Granny Zhong arrived the day before yesterday, but she suffered some turbulence. She originally said she would come to pay her respects to you yesterday, but she was delayed."
The Fourth Master returned to the manor quite late yesterday.
The Fourth Prince paused slightly: "Perfect timing. Let's go see your Master Li together, Granny."
He was well aware of Granny Zhong's medical skills.
Su Peisheng hurriedly waved to his foolish apprentice to go and invite him.
When the Fourth Master arrived at the East Courtyard, he found that the East Courtyard was already bustling with activity.

Fourth Master quickened his pace, and Su Peisheng behind him almost couldn't keep up.
