”10 days… that's alhed drahed, ”This suh the heat, it's already much more bearable than other years”
Su Nuan Nuan rolled her eyes, ”Easy for you to say, do you know just how tiring it is tosaid, ”Since it's so tiring, why don't you just let the kitchen redients expenses too”
Su Nuan Nuan sank down her chair, ”Don't bring it up anymore Your master and secondbusiness venture at the Capital soon? Both of theive out the recipe, not even to Ms Xu, leaving , if not because of ”
Concubine Jing and Concubine Lin couldn't help laughing Finally, Concubine Jing said, ”Sister is right, but aren't you too have fallen in lust with money? Otherwise, ould you bother whather secrets burst out like that made Su Nuan Nuan even more resentful, ”You're not allowed to speak the truth, this is Spring Breeze Court's rules, how dare you disobey it? Zhao Cai!”
At the call, the large cat yowled, and leapt into Su Nuan Nuan's ar's lap and said, ”Heat her up, heat her up, otherwise I'll throw you away”
”Zhao Cai seeently stroked Zhao Cai It was clear that she loved animals Even shi+ Yurou's Persian cat would let her cuddle it, whenever it was nearby
”Hasn't he? But luckily he seeile than before Otherwise, he'd have died under your lord's evil hands The man's a true foodie, if anyone dares to snatch his food, well! He ive face to old madam and elder madam, and he doesn't seemed to beat people up, but Zhao Cai is a cat, ah Everyday he's here,Breeze Court beco”
Concubine Jing smiled, ”Madam sure kno to complain Just the other day I heard Madaht that the lord's daily visit was due to Zhao Cai on top of your cooking”
Su Nuan Nuan said, ”Let them raise the cats, I shall recruit those cats when the time comes Let your lord battle it out alone with my battalion of cats, we can all take bets to see which side would win However, the branch house' Persian cat is a useless thing, it dare not breath deeply at the sight of Zhao Cai That waste of space would be useless against your lord”
They were still chatting and laughing together when Duan Xinqi entered Concubine Lin got up and said, ”Why are you so late? Did you really need all that tie your clothes?”
”Oh no, on the way here, I encountered Madam Hua, who pulled me over to talk nonsense” Duan Xinqi's cheeks were pink The rest of the ladies immediately knehat the 'nonsense' was about Su Nuan Nuan said, ”Our second ood, I heard there are quite a few families who sent representatives over to old ht your eye?”
Duan Xinqi's cheeks reddened, and she staain I shall not speak to you anymore” She then flounced over to pick up Zhao Cai fro and sat by herself with a huff
At this point, Concubine Lin spoke up gratefully, ”Thanks to ed to have this day I had alorried over which household she o, thein inquiries A them, there were two that really stood out…”
Before she could finish speaking, Duan Xinqi shrieked wordlessly froht, we'll stop talking about it Now, let me ask you Just what did Madam Hua wants anyway?”
”She said she's here to see Mada lanterns” Duan Xinqi said casually Suddenly, she sat up, ”That's right, sister-in-law, concubine mothers, have you heard? There had been soes plundered by horse bandits But see, I've been thinking, ould horse bandits attack towns at the edge of the Capital?”
Su Nuan Nuan said, ”Your brother spoke to e about soon The Judicial Office have been working with the Ministry of Justice on this case The emperor have also moved some of the I horseback opponents Humph! Humph! In my opinion, they're lucky they haven't set foot into the Capital, anyone who tries to take our Capital would be captured like turtles in a jar”
Concubine Jing said, ”The Capital had been too peaceful lately Just a rash of banditry turned into big news It was still quite ways away from the new year, so ould these thieves and bandits just not hold the into a different arc now I'm so excited!]
