Chapter 38 The Transmigrated Army, the Empress Dowager



Song's mother: "Oh, I see. These are all grown on Yan'er's estate. If you like them, take more and enjoy them slowly!"

"That's great, Xiao Yang, you've found a good wife!" The old lady breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Song's mother truly believed her.

"Thank you for the compliment, Grandma! What would you like to eat tonight? My mom is an excellent cook; I guarantee you'll want more." Since she's been called a good wife, I should at least show her some appreciation!

"Really? But my mouth tastes bitter, so I want something sweet. Never mind, you guys can make it however you like, I'm fine with anything!"

Song Yan'er...

This isn't something you can just do casually.

Suddenly, Song Yan'er remembered something and pulled out several kinds of fruit candies from her sleeve. Actually, there was also chocolate, but she hadn't taken it out because she was afraid the old lady wouldn't like it!

"Grandma, try this and see if it's sweet. I made it myself. If you like it, I'll make it for you again next time, but you can't eat too much." Older people are more prone to diabetes.

Song Yan'er dared not say the last sentence!

The old lady took the fruit candy from Song Yan'er's hand, put one in her mouth, and then her whole face came to life.

"Oh dear, this candy is still the sweetest. I just really miss the taste of chocolate!" the old lady sighed. What a pity!

Song Yan'er silently took out a chocolate from her spatial storage and placed it in the Empress Dowager's hand.

Queen Mother...

I was really just saying that casually!

After a brief respite, I saw the old lady holding Song Yan'er's hand, as if she were seeing a family member.

What followed was a conversation that left Xiao Yang and Song's mother completely baffled.

"The King of Heaven and the Tiger of Earth!"

"The pagoda shakes the river demon!"

No gifts this holiday season!

"The best gift you can receive is Brain Gold!"

Do you know Jay Chou?

"I've heard of nunchucks!"

Can you bake a cake?

"I've never done it before, but it shouldn't be too difficult!"

"I really miss red wine, do you know how to make it?"

"I've never brewed one before, but it shouldn't be too difficult!"

The two exchanged a glance. "Alright, we're kindred spirits!"

"Yan'er, from now on, Grandma will be your real grandma. If Xiao Yang bullies you, tell me, and I'll avenge you! Ah!"

Song Yan'er...

Sure enough, when fellow villagers meet, their eyes well up with tears!

The old lady said, "Hey, Xiao Yang, go help your mother cook. I need to discuss life with Yan'er!"

The old lady pulled Song Yan'er toward the pavilion on the side. Judging from the way they were talking, they wouldn't be able to finish chatting anytime soon!

Xiao Yang, disheveled in the wind...

Was he abandoned?

Song's mother: My Yan'er is so good, she won people's hearts the moment we met.

...

After the old lady and Song Yan'er arrived at the pavilion, the old lady did not let go of Song Yan'er's hand, and looked at Song Yan'er affectionately.

"You don't even know when you arrived. I've been here for almost forty years and have never met anyone from my hometown. You're the first one. What did you do before? A chef? You have no idea how much I miss the food from my hometown!"

Song Yan'er: "Ahem, you're asking so many questions at once, which one do you want me to answer? I've only been here for two months, and I wasn't a chef before, but tell me what you want to eat, and I'll try my best to make it for you, since you're my dear grandma!"

"Yes, yes, you're my granddaughter-in-law! Ah, Xiao Yang is really good, you've found the right person. Unlike me, I was already in the palace when I came here. You don't know, the more I tried to hide from the late emperor, the more he looked for me. People even thought I was playing hard to get, which almost drove me crazy! Later I thought, since things have already come to this, I can't just give up, or I'll die. Fortunately, my son became emperor, and I was free!"

I see now, this person might be the King of Rolls!

Song Yan'er raised an eyebrow. "You're the most distinguished woman here, and you're still not satisfied?"

"Would you like this wealth and honor?" The old lady looked at Song Yan'er with a resentful expression.

"I can't bear it!"

Song Yan'er imitated the accents from the card game "Dou Dizhu" (a popular Chinese card game), which amused the old lady.

"By the way, Grandma, what did you do before? Can't you make these things you like to eat?" It should be very simple!

The old lady looked annoyed as she spoke: "I'm just an ordinary office worker, completely clumsy and clueless. I have to work overtime every day, how could I have time to do these things! If I had known about this, I would have learned 360 different skills from her! I wouldn't have come here completely clueless!"

But to be honest, I'm just lazy. After work, all I want to do is lie down, and I order takeout for meals! So I ended up in this godforsaken place without learning anything!

Song Yan'er...

"Alright! You can have this chocolate for now, I'll make something else in the next few days!"

"Alright, but how did you manage to win over Xiao Yang with your status? You know he's very popular in the capital! But he's never given anyone a kind look!" When the old lady first heard that Xiao Yang got married in the countryside, she was quite shocked, but she didn't intend to break them up, after all, she had once thought that Xiao Yang would remain a bachelor!

Song Yan'er: "Um, can I say he pursued me?"

"Do you think I'm stupid?" The old lady rolled her eyes. With Xiao Yang's personality and his state of mind at that time, it was impossible!

Song Yan'er: "Okay, the original owner saved him, and then I was lustful and used the life-saving grace to threaten him!"

Song Yan'er looked uncomfortable, after all, this kind of thing wasn't exactly something to be proud of!

"Pfft! You're awesome!"

Song Yan'er was speechless. "You're supposed to be the Empress Dowager, can't you watch your words?"

The old woman slammed her hand on the stone table and exclaimed, "Damn it! I've been cooped up in the palace for half my life, and now I'm expected to pretend again! I won't do it!"

Song Yan'er...
