A palace maid came over, knelt down next to Song Liyun, covered her nose with her hand and said, "Young Madam, I am a Wu Dynasty person and cannot eat such foul-smelling things."
Could you ask those people to make some stew or pancakes? Even simple noodles or rice porridge, with some side dishes, will do. I'm not a picky eater.
Song Liyun didn't answer, but just smiled at her: "You can cook?"
The woman shook her head: "I was taught by my family to check accounts and manage the household since I was a child, and I don't know how to cook."
She spoke with a hint of pride.
In the Wu Dynasty, few women were literate. Wealthy families taught their daughters to keep accounts, mainly so that they could marry and manage the household.
An interesting maidservant who can read but can't cook has been sent from the capital!

A smile gradually crept onto Song Liyun's face.
She had originally intended to follow Elder Shan's advice and let these people walk slowly at the back, but that idea vanished instantly.
Talent is more important than anything else; we should make concessions whenever possible.
Song Liyun immediately called Abu over: "Abu, from this moment on, your cavalry will be responsible for taking good care of Granny Xu and the others."
Abu was completely confused.
