"No matter what you think, Meiyue Tower will not be rebuilt anyway." Duan Tingxuan hardened his heart and turned his head away from Su Nuannuan's eyes: For long-term happiness, he must persevere to the end at this moment.
"Okay, if you don't rebuild Meiyue Tower, then don't even think about eating the delicious food I make. To be honest with you, I still have a lot of skills that I haven't shown you yet. Have you ever tried beggar's chicken? Have you ever tried eggplant box? And..."
"I can endure not eating your food for a day or two, or even ten days or eight days." Duan Tingxuan waved his hand, interrupting Su Nuannuan's words, and asked with a smile: "But Nuannuan, how many days do you think you can hold out in the ruins of Meiyue Tower? Although it is summer now, there are a lot of mosquitoes outside. If you light too much mugwort to repel mosquitoes, it will be suffocating. Also, the kitchen and everything are burned. Are you going to have a picnic in the open air? Picnic days are still romantic and beautiful for a day or two, but after ten days or half a month, I don't know what will happen. Moreover, washing, bathing, and sleeping have become problems. I can't stand the scorching sun during the day..."
"Asshole, scumbag, beast..." Su Nuannuan was so angry that she clenched her fists, but it was useless because she knew that what Duan Tingxuan said was true. She couldn't continue to live in Meiyue Tower, so she could only move back to the backyard and deal with those wives and concubines who were eyeing her covetously.
"You can scold me as much as you want, as long as you are willing to move back, I don't care even if you call me a beast." Duan Tingxuan shrugged: It really didn't matter. The political enemies in the court scolded him even more harshly behind his back. If he cared about this, he would have died long ago.
"Grandma, what should we do?" Honglian and Xiangyun walked forward and asked worriedly: they were of course hoping that Su Nuannuan could move back to the backyard, but seeing the master so sad. The master's attitude was firm, and the two girls were at a loss.
"What else can I do? I'll just move back. I'm just afraid of trouble. If anyone dares to mess with me, I'll beat them back. Who's afraid of who?"
Su Nuannuan's fierce nature as a foodie was revealed. She clenched her fist and waved it fiercely in the air: Damn it. Why do other time-traveling women have everything going smoothly? As soon as she showed her golden finger, the handsome and rich male protagonist immediately fell at her feet. Why is it her turn? She can only fight the scumbag on equal terms? Now she is being threatened by him by the neck. She is unwilling to accept it. She really is unwilling to accept it.
"Nuan Nuan, do you really agree?" Hearing the affirmative answer, the young marquis immediately showed a flattering smile and came forward. This diluted the resentment in Su Nuan Nuan's heart a little: no matter what, this was also a scumbag begging her to go back to the backyard. It was not that she went back on her own initiative in a miserable and dejected manner.
"I can promise you to go back to the backyard, but I have conditions." Su Nuannuan certainly couldn't let Duan Tingxuan get away with it so easily. The conditions were just something she had thought of. Sure enough, Duan Tingxuan smiled and nodded, "As long as I can accept it, let alone one, even a hundred will be fine."
"Not as many as a hundred." Su Nuannuan snorted coldly. Pointing at the burning Meiyue Tower, she said softly, "You refuse to rebuild the Meiyue Tower. Then let's turn this place into a greenhouse. We can grow our own vegetables in the winter."
"No problem. I'll take care of it." Duan Tingxuan's eyes lit up: There are also rich families in the capital who love delicious food and have their own greenhouses, but the Duan family didn't spend much time on food before, so they didn't build one. However, now is different from the past. With Su Nuannuan, it's natural to build a greenhouse. Just think about it, if we can eat mushrooms and rapeseed, leek boxes, and roasted eggplant in winter...
With a "gulp", the young marquis swallowed hard, and the matter was settled. At this moment, there were chaotic footsteps outside, and then someone was banging on the courtyard door. Honglian hurried to open the door, and saw several night watch women leading some male and female servants rushing in, shouting to put out the fire, but they were silent after seeing Duan Tingxuan and Su Nuannuan in the courtyard.
Although there was no point in putting out the fire now, Duan Tingxuan still let the servants rush over to clean up the mess. Su Nuannuan shouted "Be careful", which made him look at her for a while, but he was given a fierce look by his wife.
Then Madam Yang, Xu Ranyun and others also arrived. Although Duan Tingxuan was not injured, he had rushed into the sea of fire, and his hair was singed and his sleeves were burnt. The quilt he was wearing also made his body covered with dust and mud. He looked very embarrassed. Su Nuannuan, on the other hand, was not hurt at all because he protected her well.
Madam Yang felt sorry for her son, so she naturally took her anger out on Su Nuannuan. However, she couldn't say it out loud, because she knew her son would definitely defend that woman. Xu Ranyun felt sorry in her heart, secretly hating the heavens for not helping her. If her husband hadn't stayed here tonight because of the rain, Su Nuannuan, the witch, might have been burned to death. Now, not only did she not die, but because Meiyue Tower was burned down, she might have to move back to the backyard. This was really bad news.
Madam Yang was also very depressed, but she was kindhearted. Meiyue Tower was burned down, and Su Nuannuan was not allowed to return to the backyard. Did she want the three of them, the master and the servant, to sleep in the open air? How could this be possible?
"Mother, it's not even four o'clock yet. I'll let Nuannuan and Honglian Xiangyun stay at the old lady's place for a night. I'll ask the servants to tidy up Chunfeng Garden tomorrow and then let them move back. What do you think?" Duan Tingxuan sought his mother's opinion, but Madam Yang said calmly, "Why bother the old lady? Let them stay at my place for a day and move back after Chunfeng Garden is tidied up."
Duan Tingxuan looked at Madam Yang doubtfully and murmured, "Let them stay with mother..."
"What's that look in your eyes?" Madam Yang became more and more annoyed and snorted coldly, "Am I a tiger? Are you afraid that I will eat them?"
"How could my son think so? Mother is virtuous and gentle, how could she be a tiger? Even if there is a tiger, it should be a fierce woman like Nuannuan." Duan Tingxuan saw that his mother was angry and embarrassed, and hurriedly smiled and said. He did not avoid Su Nuannuan when he said this, because she was a fierce woman, and the young marquis felt that his wife should have this self-awareness.
"Humph!" Madam Yang ignored her son's flattery and looked around. Seeing that the servants were busy putting out the fire in the distance, and only Su Nuannuan and Xu Ranyun were around, she looked at her son and asked sternly, "Tell me the truth, did you set the fire? Your purpose was to make your wife move back to the backyard."
