"That dead cat..." Duan Tingxuan looked disdainful, but when he saw Su Nuannuan glaring at him with displeasure, he thought that this beast was his wife's favorite pet and must have a higher status in Nuannuan's heart than himself, so he quickly changed his tone to a doting one and said with a smile: "It's too fat. Feed it less. Be careful that it won't be able to walk in the future. It will die of obesity at any time. Then, as its owners, won't you and I be sad?"
Su Nuannuan rubbed her arms and said, "Come on, you're lying. I'm getting goosebumps from what you said. Would you still be sad about Zhaocai? You're kidding me. Do you think I didn't see you steal half of the fish that I asked you to put in the cat bowl last time?"
"Ahem... that's not my fault. Who made the fish that day so delicious?" The young marquis shouted angrily, scooping another bit of ice cream into his mouth: "The reason why I have to eat it in small bites is because there is only this much. If I finish it all at once, there will be nothing left."
"This is dessert. You still have to eat after that, right?" Su Nuannuan said unhappily: "Tonight we have sweet and sour fish, fresh lotus root bone soup, lotus leaf steamed pork..." Before she could finish, Duan Tingxuan decisively speeded up his actions and finished a plate of ice cream in a flash.
"When you heard that there were so many good things for dinner, ice cream is no longer my salvation? Your love changes too quickly." Xiangyun had been watching from the side. At this moment, she burst out laughing and couldn't help but tease him. Anyway, Duan Tingxuan was influenced by Su Nuannuan and never showed off his master's majesty in Chunfeng Garden.
"What do you know, little girl?" The young marquis was embarrassed by Xiangyun's words, so he had to pretend to be angry and scolded her. Then he was stunned for a moment, blinked twice, and suddenly turned to Su Nuannuan and said, "Yes, Nuannuan. Who did you give the ice cream to?"
"You should ask me if I have left anyone behind?" Su Nuannuan counted on her fingers unhappily, "Old Madam, Madam, Madam Min, Aunt Lin, the Second House, I have ordered people to send them all off. I have no choice. After all, I am the wife of the Crown Prince. I have to show the generosity and thoughtfulness of the wife of the Crown Prince, right? But I will not take care of Grandma Yun and Grandma Lan. Sister Jing happened to come to talk to me, so she will eat here. How is it? Are you satisfied with my arrangement?"
Duan Tingxuan put the empty plate on the table. Then he sat down and asked with interest, "So, you also sent it to my second brother's room?"
"Yes, although I don't like the couple. You don't like them either, but we still have to do what we should do, right?" Su Nuannuan had long been told by Duan Tingxuan about the couple's ambitions. So in order to ensure Duan Tingxuan's and her own status, she had to act virtuous and generous in front of the old marquis Duan Ni. If she put on a tit-for-tat attitude now, I'm afraid the old marquis originally had no intention of changing the prince. Now he will have one.
"No wonder." Duan Tingxuan clapped his hands and laughed, "I was wondering why Tingye came over to me when he saw me today. And that little girl, what's her name? Chun'er, right? She suddenly ran into our yard. I was confused, but I couldn't figure out the reason. Now it seems that my second brother has some thoughts about your ice cream. He has other intentions, hahaha!"
"He's not interested in the wine anymore, why are you still so happy?" Su Nuannuan was surprised. Shouldn't she be on high alert? Why was her husband smiling like he was blessed with a mountain of silver?
"Of course I'm happy. Someone wants to make money for us for free. Isn't this worth being happy about?" Duan Tingxuan smiled even more and turned to Xiangyun and said, "Go, call Siping and the girls in. I have something to tell you."
"yes."
Xiangyun agreed and left. Su Nuannuan also understood and said thoughtfully, "What do you mean? The couple in the second room are planning to take over the ice cream?"
Duan Tingxuan nodded and said, "Yes. In fact, I think my second brother has been eyeing these delicacies in your hand for a long time. Nowadays, people live a good life, and there are many wealthy businessmen. Their money is the easiest to earn. If he can make these foods in your hand, he can open two restaurants. Are you afraid that there will be many customers? Now he is also thinking about shipping business. Although shipping business has huge profits, the initial investment and later risks are not small. They are several people in a partnership, but he is the only one with a short of money. How can he do it? If he can start the catering business at this time, there will be no problem with turnover. But after all, our relationship with them is not good, so even if he is tempted, he is unwilling to lose face. But once this ice cream appears, I am afraid he can no longer sit still."
"Can ice cream make more money than a restaurant? This is just a side story after all."
Su Nuannuan analyzed based on her experience in her previous life. She had worked part-time during the summer vacation in junior high school and sold ice cream. The profit of a few cents per stick was simply not worth mentioning in the business of Anping Marquis Mansion.
"A little thing?" Duan Tingxuan was interested, so he stood up and sat down next to Su Nuannuan: "Do you think this thing is a little thing just because it's inconspicuous? Wrong, very wrong, why did you Dao Tingye hold back before, but couldn't hold back this time? That's because the things you made before, no matter how fancy they were, no matter how delicious they were, they were still ingredients that existed in the world. But this ice cream, haha, to be honest, before you made it, I didn't know about cream. The milk snacks we made in our kitchen are just mixed with some milk. Your milk smoothie a few days ago was excellent. Not to mention our mansion, even the emperor, empress, prince and all the princes in the palace can't live without it, so now every rich family loves to eat this. That thing is simple, and people will basically know what it's like after eating it once. This ice cream is different..."
Su Nuannuan was stunned to see Duan Tingxuan talking there. She had always thought that this guy was the kind of person who was good at ruling the country, but he was also very knowledgeable when talking about business. I have heard that governing a big country is like cooking a small fish, but have you heard that governing a country is like doing business? Do you need to be so versatile? No wonder Duan Tingye is determined to kill him. How many lifetimes of evil must he have done to have such a brother? He doesn't even leave a way for people to live. Is it easy to be born into a good family? Who wants to be the background of his brother?
As the young marquis analyzed with great excitement, Su Nuannuan finally couldn't help but say something good for the poor Second Master Duan: "Why bother? According to what you said, even if the second brother embezzled some, most of the money he earned was from the public. This ice cream is nothing, and even the food is nothing. Just let him manage it. You are already the prince, a favorite of the emperor, and you have a seat in the court. Why are you still fussing with him?"
