I just don't know how the baby boy survived that year.
It is possible that after Zhao and her family lost their baby boy, they were rescued in time by Aunt Zheng's own people and sent out of the mansion. If he really survived, he would be very lucky!
But she had doubts.
Because when Li Qingluo was kidnapped by the Lotus Sect, he met Zheng Lingzhou again.
Since Zheng Lingzhou is the leader of the four Dharma protectors of the Lotus Sect, if she really has a brother alive in this world, wouldn’t this brother also be related to the Lotus Sect?
Although she didn't want to have anything to do with these people, she couldn't prevent them from suddenly coming out to claim kinship.
no!
If the things done by Qu and Aunt Deng in the past were to be exposed, and the brother happened to come back to recognize his relatives, then the General's Mansion would be in danger of being involved in the Lotus Sect, and Qu and Aunt Deng might also escape.
Therefore, in order to prevent her grandmother and herself from being contaminated by the Lotus Sect, her brother cannot come back alive!
Just think of her as cruel.
Now she just wants to protect her grandmother and the people she cares about.
The rest, nothing matters.
Before Madam Pei could express her opinion, Li Qingluo had already made up her mind.
"Grandma, I can't tell you directly. I need to find a way to scare my mother so that she will confess herself."
First, the charges against her should be confirmed. That way, even if news comes out later that one of the twins is still alive, what Qu has personally admitted to doing cannot be washed away.
Then there is the brother.
"By the way, Grandma, can your people find out the whereabouts of my brother?"
She needs to take precautions early.
Although Mrs. Pei didn't know what Li Qingluo was going to do, she still agreed.
"Leave this matter to grandma, don't worry about it."
"After dinner, let's think about the fun we had riding horses on the 17th!"
"Don't worry about it all the time. You look so lifeless at such a young age!"
Li Qingluo: ...
Grandma, you were quite fascinated by what you were listening to just now.
Are you disgusted with her again now?
The pot was brought up.
It's steaming hot and full of meaty aroma.
Especially on snowy days, eating a hot pot of soup will make you feel energetic and warm.
While eating, Mrs. Pei remembered to ask Li Qingluo.
"Is your soup pot restaurant about to open?"
Li Qingluo: "Luo'er plans to try opening it before the Spring Festival to see if everyone likes it."
Madam Pei: "Of course I like it in winter. But if it's during the New Year, there will be a lot of social events, and the restaurant should be able to make a lot of money. What kind of pots are you going to make and sell?"
Li Qingluo listed them one by one: "Beef, mutton, chicken, duck, goose, pig, everything. If you like to eat everything, you don't have to cook just one. You can make a delicious soup base and dip all the dishes in it."
"For example, beef and mutton offal, beef and mutton slices, and pork meatballs."
"You can also just eat one type of meat in the pot. If you're not satisfied, you can add more dishes while you eat."
Mrs. Pei was also very interested after hearing this.
"What else?"
Li Qingluo: "Auntie Lou sent me some chili peppers and numbing peppercorns from Shu. I tried cooking them twice at the Red Maple Pavilion. Grandma, the taste is really unique. I think we could make a spicy hot pot for it, which would be a unique flavor."
Madam Pei: "Then let me taste it first!"
Li Qingluo smiled and agreed, "I'll have someone go to Shu to buy a large amount for me. We'll try adding some to the mix first. If the people of Jinling don't like it, we can keep it for ourselves."
"Also, my granddaughter thinks that just eating soup is boring. So, I'm going to make some cold dishes, fried foods, desserts, etc., so that people who eat soup can have a change of pace."
Mrs. Pei nodded repeatedly.
"Girl, you have some ideas behind all this. Counting the days, the Spring Festival isn't far away. Don't just be busy with this. Take some time off when you have time."
Li Qingluo: "Don't worry, grandma. I know. A few days ago, Princess Nanping sent me an invitation, inviting me to go horseback riding outside the city on the 17th, and I agreed."
Madam Pei was a little worried: "But you can't ride a horse, how can you have fun there? But she is the princess, you can't just ignore her and not go."
"Never mind, there are still three to five days left. Grandma will take you to the stables to pick a horse and then teach you how to learn from it."
"You don't have to be able to run right away, but at least you should be able to sit on it and let someone lead you so you can pretend."
After eating the hot pot of soup, Mrs. Pei personally took Li Qingluo to the stable to pick a horse.
At this time, the groom came over and said, "Madam, young lady, the eldest master heard that you were here to choose a horse, so he just sent someone to say that if you don't mind, he will give you the white horse he has."
