”What's wrong?” Seeing that Xiao Wu had returned, Xiao Yu couldn't help but ask him in a soft voice. Although the things they had left outside weren't as important as the things they had brought in the courtyard, they would still feel heartache if they left less.
”Some of it was taken away.” Although those people might be afraid, they didn't take much. When they first moved the things here, they had thought of them before, so a part of them had moved into this somewhat dilapidated courtyard, but there was still a tribe that didn't want to move into other courtyards. Yesterday, when they moved the last few things, they moved all the important things here, but because they couldn't get wet, they had to tidy up their courtyard first.
”It's fine. Didn't you already think of this earlier? Move first, I'll take care of another room and help you move as well.” They thought of all sorts of things, even the wax trees. The only two living trees in the courtyard were the two wax trees, and as for the grass, the weeds, their lives were always free, and they worked hard every day.
Xiao Yu was anxious as well, but she had already cleaned up her house and put away one of its eaves. In fact, she wasn't in a rush as she hurried over to help Xiao Wu move all the things that weren't too heavy, she couldn't let those people take advantage of her.
It was already half a month later when they were done with their things. The weeds in the yard had already been removed, but they had yet to grow anything. Hua Yu Su felt that they didn't have much time now, but they did have a lot of time.
The fruit trees in the yard were not small, and there were also many vegetables and grains, so that they could live in the future. When they arrived at the little chicks, they had already built a place for them to live, and other than growing vegetables and growing grains, they could also go there. Eating bugs was the only way to grow faster, and luckily, there were still twenty or so adult chickens to eat.
When everything went smoothly, it would already be a month later, and in this month, they would be able to go out and collect their monthly meals. Although it wouldn't be as much as the imperial concubine, the quantity would still be quite a lot, and perhaps the emperor hadn't given up yet. Xiao Wu didn't say anything and just accepted it as it was.
The house was already settled, if he did not treat anyone to a meal, then that would mean that he did not understand the rules. Therefore, as a person who understood the rules, Huaxu Su told Xiao Wu to go over and invite the others, and she and Xiao Yu would prepare the meal together. Because there was a supplement for the meal in the middle, the prepared food was still considered tasty.
”Yes, your cooking skills are quite good.” What kind of person was the imperial concubine and what kind of person she was with? Even the emperor wouldn't dare to keep her to eat and drink right now, so she had always used the best food.
After having a meal, when the imperial concubine saw that there were quite a few chickens growing here, she immediately knew what these people wanted to do, so that they could feed and raise two pairs of rabbits. Furthermore, if she was bored with her family's food, she would bring her personal maid along to eat together with them. Seeing that their food was not bad, she could not help but think that the emperor was actually blind.
This was great, she saw chilli peppers for the flowers in the garden, so she naturally ordered a lot of them. Soaking peppers and spicy rabbits were her favorite dishes, but compared to fighting around in the imperial harem, this life was much more enjoyable.
It had been so long since Hua Yu Su had gotten married in the early autumn. When it was late autumn, they had directly entered the cold palace, and now that it was winter, although they were well-prepared, but there was still something they were not as good as before. After the first snow, the three of them could only try their best not to go out.
This made the emperor realize that they were no longer prepared to help him, and it was also because of this that the supply of the Mandarin Su was stopped in the third month. Fortunately, she was fully prepared and was not afraid that they would stop just like that.
As for the emperor, he had given up on the Hua family, so he naturally had to look for another family, but when the decree was passed down, every girl would have a reason to fall ill, and in the end, he didn't have a reason to do so. When the Prince Zong began to walk in front of the people, he had the intention to become an emperor, so he had the authority to back it up.
He knew that he had to take the evidence and speak. He had already sent out spies within the palace and was prepared to act as long as the empress dowager had a big belly. As for now, he was only warming up to see what kind of relationship those people had with the emperor.
