Princess Ping had been living a life of luxury since childhood, with everything she ate, used, wore, and drank being of the highest quality. Jiang Xuelin told her about the benefits of the mutton bone soup, and since it didn't smell strange, she decided to try it.
—It's really amazing. So much dogwood and vinegar are added, but it only smells like lamb bones. It's incredibly deceptive.
Years of self-cultivation prevented Princess Ping from losing her composure too much, but the taste was just too... unexpected. Princess Ping's face was contorted with suppressed rage as she turned her head slightly.
The old nanny behind her reacted quickly, using a plate placed next to her to catch the soup that Princess Ping vomited, and then quickly brought over some tea for Princess Ping to rinse her mouth.
Jiang Xuelin, who was happily sipping her soup and about to ask Princess Ping how it tasted, was speechless.
Suddenly, I didn't dare to say a word.
Is it possible that Mother Consort can't eat spicy food? But this isn't particularly spicy, is it? And there isn't much dogwood in it.
Fu Hanlai, who was also sitting at the table with a bowl of mutton bone soup served by a maid in front of him and was about to take a bite, thought: "..."
He silently put the spoon down.
Given his mother's temperament, she wouldn't have lost her composure like this unless she really couldn't hold back.
So this soup...
My gaze fell upon the fragrant lamb bone soup.
Terrifying!
Fortunately, he was interrupted by his mother just now, and he hadn't yet tasted the soup that Jiang Xuelin had so highly recommended.
He couldn't help but think of when Jiang Xuelin ate Mapo Tofu earlier. Jiang Xuelin seemed to have said the same thing back then, acting as if it wasn't exciting at all, but he couldn't resist after just one bite.
...Thank you, Mother.
Princess Ping downed the entire pot of tea before she felt the strange taste in her mouth dissipate a little, but just thinking about that taste made her feel nauseous.
The old woman was nearly frantic with worry, and Jiang Xuelin was also startled. She and Fu Hanlai surrounded Prince Ping and Princess Ping, calling out, "Hongluo! Hongluo! Come quickly and let your mother take a look!"
Such a strong reaction, could it be that he/she is sick?
Let Hongluo take a look right away.
Jiang Xuelin was genuinely worried. She knew very well how good Princess Ping had been to her, and that was why she respected and admired Princess Ping from the bottom of her heart. Seeing her pale face now, she was naturally worried.
Hongluo quickly came over and said, "Your Highness, I apologize for the offense," before placing her hand on Princess Ping's wrist.
fine.
Nothing's wrong, just a rush of blood to my head, like I've been stimulated by something.
Hongluo also said the same thing to Jiang Xuelin.
Jiang Xuelin didn't understand medicine, but she knew how good Hongluo's medical skills were. Hearing her say that put her at ease, but she was still very doubtful.
"...Then why?"
"It's alright." Princess Ping had almost recovered by now. She took a deep breath and tried to forget the taste. Seeing that her son and daughter-in-law, the two little devils, looked nervous, she forced a smile to indicate that she was fine. "I just didn't expect it to be so sour and spicy. I haven't eaten such stimulating food in a long time, and I couldn't stand it for a moment."
Anyway, she didn't dare to touch it.
Is this all the soldiers at the border can drink? When they return, they can send more money over; it's really not easy for them.
If she remembered correctly, the money earned from the "Tian Ri Zhao Zhao" tabloid was sent to the soldiers at the border after Ah Shou and the others discussed it, and they did not keep it for themselves.
This is related to both Jiang Xuelin and Huang Qingshi. After Huang Qingshi's affair was exposed, he went to the border to find Jiang Xuelin's brother. Now he is under Jiang Xuelin's brother's command, so he exchanged the money he received for supplies and sent them to the border.
However, Princess Ping remembered that the matter was not sent in the name of Jiang Xuelin and the others. A Shou made a special trip to the palace and it was ultimately sent in the name of Emperor Xuande.
...Anyway, now is not the time to talk about these things, or we'll go off on a tangent.
Neither the mother nor her son could eat the mutton bone soup, but Jiang Xuelin drank the soup and ate the steamed bun with great relish.
Princess Ping and Fu Hanlai then had the small kitchen send up some light-tasting breakfast dishes, all of which were quite characteristic of the Jiangnan region.
After using a few things, Princess Ping remembered the purpose of her visit, but seeing the dark ink on Fu Hanlai's face, her attention was diverted once again.
"Shou, didn't you sleep well last night? There are dark circles under your eyes. You young people need to..."
control.
However, it was not appropriate to say these things in front of the servants and his daughter-in-law, Jiang Xuelin.
He looked like he was indulging in excessive sexual activity, which made Princess Ping worry.
Even though Princess Ping didn't say exactly what it was about, those who were supposed to understand knew what she meant, and Jiang Xuelin suddenly blushed.
She had never felt so embarrassed when she teased Fu Hanlai in bed before, but now, in front of Princess Ping, she couldn't control herself at all.
Not only did Jiang Xuelin blush, but Fu Hanlai did too. Even Princess Ping herself couldn't help but look away after the two of them blushed, and her ears turned red as well.
"Mother, I am innocent!" Fu Hanlai said he could not accept this situation!
And he really felt so wronged.
He was also worried that Jiang Xuelin would do it to him again tonight.
Two nights already!
He hadn't had a proper rest for two nights, and he went out in the middle of the night to buy Mapo Tofu for Jiang Xuelin!
Besides, he can't admit to being wronged!
After Fu Hanlai finished speaking, Jiang Xuelin became even more uneasy and couldn't help but kick Fu Hanlai's leg from below.
However, instead of seeking justice for him as Fu Hanlai had expected, Princess Ping frowned.
