Chapter 24: Miss Qiao followed the Marquis to the main courtyard
The chili oil is boiled starting from dusk in the evening. How can I not eat it after it is finally cooked?
Yunqiao simply made fried dough noodles. After the noodles and side dishes were cooked, they were placed in a bowl and poured with oil and chili peppers. The aroma filled the air. Just as Yunqiao and Xiaotao were about to eat, they heard footsteps outside the door.
"Girl, it sounds like the Marquis is coming..."
Just when Xiaotao thought that her daughter would get up and change clothes quickly.
Unexpectedly, her daughter picked up the bowl and chopsticks and immediately started eating with big mouthfuls. I saw that she sucked in a huge piece of the fish in one bite...
Xiao Tao stared in amazement. She had never expected this.
How could she not eat the noodles she had worked so hard to make? If she didn't eat them now, would she have another chance to eat them when the Marquis came?
After eating, she immediately interrupted with her handkerchief.
Xiao Tao didn't dare to neglect the person at the door, so she walked to the door and hurriedly opened it.
"She's resting..."
Xiao Tao was the most honest one, so she quickly said, "No, my daughter just cooked some noodles and is about to eat them. My Lord, you are here."
The smell of chili peppers filled the room. It was fragrant, but still a bit choking.
Chen Jingyan frowned, but still stepped in. He saw the beautiful, cute and lovely woman with a red mouth that seemed to be swollen.
"Good night, my Lord..."
"An," he said calmly as he walked inside. He came to Yun Qiao's favorite seat and sat down casually. "I heard from the maid in front of you that you made noodles for yourself tonight?"
Yun Qiao nodded.
Chen Jingyan: "The dinner portion provided by the kitchen is not enough?"
Yun Qiao quickly shook her head, "It's because I'm greedy, so I made some food myself. The kitchen gave me enough, so I have more than enough to eat."
Chen Jingyan hummed, "Do you have any noodles left?"
Yun Qiao cleverly understood what was meant.
But she still told the truth, "I cooked a little noodles. If you want more, here is another bowl..."
Both bowls of noodles were on the small table on the side. The furnishings in the room were indeed simple, even crude, but the room was tidy and clean. Perhaps because there were not many things in it, the small room seemed spacious.
He had been to Xiaoxiang Garden several times. Cheng Danmei's house was big and clean, but it was not as cozy as Yun Qiao's.
There were two bowls of noodles on the small square table. One bowl had been bitten a few times, while the other bowl looked untouched. There were only the master and servant in the room.
Chen Jingyan knew what was going on.
"Bring your bowl here so I can see it..."
What are you looking at?
Look at the face? 】
Yun Qiao hesitated for a moment, a little confused about what Chen Jingyan was thinking, but still stood up and brought her bowl of noodles.
"I have eaten. If you want to eat more, I will cook you something new right now."
Chen Jingyan: "No need, I'll try it."
Under Yun Qiao's surprised eyes, Chen Jingyan picked up Yun Qiao's chopsticks and ate the noodles in her bowl.
Wow, he ate it all in one go.
Yun Qiao just watched him eat up all his noodles with a dry look on his face.
After eating and drinking his fill, he looked at Yun Qiao and said, "The smell in this room is choking. Come with me for a walk."
Finding her interesting and having just eaten someone else's noodles, Chen Jingyan took Yun Qiao out.
Of course, you can't wander around Xiaoxiang Garden.
She followed Chen Jingyan to the main courtyard.
This is the main courtyard of Yunqiaolai. The main courtyard is not too far from Xiaoxiangyuan. It takes about a quarter of an hour to walk there. The main courtyard is quite large, but it is also much more magnificent than Xiaoxiangyuan.
Maids and attendants were rare, but the yard was filled with lanterns, and I don’t know how much money the candles would cost to burn all night.
This is really a waste of money.
"Chen Ruhai is your uncle. So, you grew up in your uncle's house. Are your parents willing to leave you there?"
"My parents died in a fire and all our property was burned to ashes. I later went to live with my uncle."
Yun Qiao spoke in a much lower voice.
Chen Jingyan turned his head and looked over.
I actually felt a little more sympathy for her.
"Is your uncle good to you?" he asked.
"It's good. At least I grew up in the Chen family." Yun Qiao replied.
She naturally remembered the kindness of raising her, but she fell into the water and injured herself in the cold winter at Chen's house. Her aunt was afraid of being scolded by her uncle, so she concealed the fact and did not call a doctor, which led to her being unable to have children in the end.
To be honest, she is not a modern person, and she doesn't have any particularly deep obsession with whether to have children or not.
After hearing her say this, he said no more.
The two of them went straight into the house. When the maidservant in the house saw that the Marquis was accompanied by a young girl, she immediately ordered her servants to go to the kitchen to prepare hot water.
"My Lord, the bed is ready. I will prepare hot water for you whenever you want to rest."
The maid serving in front of him is called Chunhua. There is also a maid named Qiuyue in this room. These two were sent by the old lady to serve the Marquis. In addition to serving the Marquis, they also have to serve at night.
However, Chen Jingyan seldom slept in the bedroom in the main courtyard. He spent most of his time in the military camp, so he often stayed in the study.
I brought Yunqiao to this room today just because I ate Yunqiao's bowl of noodles. Her room was full of the aroma of chili peppers, so it was really not suitable to talk there.
Chen Jingyan nodded.
Yun Qiao's heart also began to lift, but she calmed it down again.
Since she has entered the Marquis's Mansion, she will belong to the Marquis sooner or later, so she can just sleep with him.
Anyway, this is the first time, so it doesn’t matter who I give it to.
At least Chen Jingyan is good-looking, and as a soldier, he has a strong and stylish figure.
Don't think that you are being slept with. Tell yourself that she is sleeping with a man.
If you think in this way, your mentality will naturally be different.
The mattress is made and the hot water is ready. I'm afraid I'm going to have sex tonight.
"Afraid?" he suddenly asked softly.
Yun Qiao raised her head, her eyes pure but with a hint of confusion.
Although she is not young in modern times, she has never experienced a man. She has always been busy with her career and has no emotional experience.
"Don't we all have to go through this?"
She didn't say she was afraid, she just said this.
The man said nothing and had no expression.
"Let's stay here tonight."
She nodded slightly and said softly, OK!
After the hot water was ready, Chen Jingyan went to wash first. Yun Qiao sat on the stool at the small round table, staring around with big eyes. The things placed in the Marquis's room were simple, but all of them were valuable. The maid Chunhua saw that she was sitting there without moving, so she brought her a cup of tea.
"My Lord's favorite drink is Junshan Yinzhen. Please try it, young lady."
Yun Qiao said softly, "Thank you."
"Miss, you are so lucky. I have been serving the Marquis in this courtyard for five years, and you are the first one to be brought into the main courtyard."
Yun Qiao remained calm on the surface, but was rolling her eyes in her heart.
Good luck?
Do you want this blessing given to you?
What good thing is it that the Marquis took me to the main courtyard to sleep at this critical moment?
