After drinking the water, Cheng Xue asked softly:
"Are you hungry? I asked Bai Shao to bring something up. I didn't even have anything to eat at noon."

"No, no, no, I just woke up and I have no appetite." Mrs. Lian waved her hands quickly, "I'm not afraid of my sister-in-law's jokes. I'm really hungry after eating these sour plums today, so I can't eat them at all."

Cheng Xue smiled bitterly upon hearing this, shook her head helplessly and said:
"You are really messing around. How can you eat so many sour plums if you don't feel well? Your stomach doesn't want it anymore? The same goes for Tangtang. If you understand pharmacology, I won't stop you. I'll talk to her later."

"No, no, no, sister-in-law, don't talk about Tangtang. It's me who wants to eat sour plums. It has nothing to do with the child. What's more, I won't let her tell you. I don't want to delay the progress of my journey."

Lian took everything on himself. He was a child after all. Even if he knew about medicine, he would not have thought thoroughly enough about the situation at that time.

After a careful and worried assurance, Cheng Xue finally looked a little better.

"You're not allowed to mess around again in the future. It's okay to take a break if you're not feeling well. You can catch up when the time comes."

Lian nodded and did not expose the situation of her "opening her eyes and telling lies".

Rushing?No rush at all!
It still takes a long time to walk from Liaodong to the north!
"Sister-in-law, I want to open a shabu shabu house in the county next year, do you think it's okay?"

"Okay, okay, but you can't just entertain women like the capital. Also, you have just arrived in Pingyang County, so don't be anxious about opening a store, take your time." Cheng Xue advised.

I understand her desire to make money, but she struggled with it as soon as she arrived in Pingyang County and ended up in a hurry.It won't be too late to do this once Zhou Fei settles down in Pingyang County.

Lian Shi also understood this truth, held her arm affectionately, and nodded.

"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I understand this. When the store opens, we will split the money [-]/[-]. The idea was all my sister-in-law's, so we should divide the money as we should."

Cheng Xue was not polite to her about this, and promised that if she came up with any ideas for the capital in the future, she would also get another one for her.He also told her to ask Mrs. Bai, she was her sister-in-law after all, so it was reasonable to give in.

The two chatted for a long time about the shop, and the topic didn't stop until Bai Wei appeared at the door.

"Ma'am, Master is back."

"Okay." Cheng Xue responded, stood up, looked at Lian and said, "I'll ask Bai Shao to bring you some food later. It's okay if you sleep late. It's better to sleep in the car on the way tomorrow, so you won't feel uncomfortable. "

"Well, I listen to my sister-in-law and eat later."

Cheng Xue returned to the room with a smile. There were all five children in the room, except Li Hui.

Before she could speak, Li Heng rushed to her, took her hand and whispered:

"Do you know who lives next door?"

I don’t know who lives there, but the official position should be high, otherwise the inn’s clerk wouldn’t be able to arrange for them to go up to the third floor.

Cheng Xue didn't care about this and asked with a smile:
"Where is your dad? What are you doing downstairs?"

Li Heng, who was not very good at selling things, saw that his mother was not interested at all, so he immediately curled his lips and said nothing.

Seeing this, Yan Yixin smiled and bumped his brother down with his shoulder, and said hoarsely:

"Auntie, my uncle is down below talking to Marquis Dingbei. He will have to come up later."

"Dingbei Hou? Su Houye?"

Yan Yixin nodded and continued:
"It sounds like their car broke down in the last place, and they spent half a day repairing it, which was a waste of time."

Cheng Xue twitched her lips slightly, she didn't expect that the world is so small and the timing is so lucky.As long as they continued on their way as usual and as long as the other party's carriage was not broken again, they would not encounter each other in Yanning County.

"I'm not sure I'm going to be Marquis of Bei. How was your time in the bathhouse? Are you comfortable?" "You feel so good, Mom. I fell asleep when I put Si Dan to sleep." Li Heng answered hurriedly.

"Are you asleep?" Cheng Xue was surprised.

I can't blame her for her reaction. He hasn't taken a nap since he was five years old.In the past, it was because I had too much work and no time.Later, she came over with Li Hui. The child was taking supplements and learning kung fu, and he was so energetic that he couldn't sleep.

Li Heng scratched his head shyly.

"The light in the resting hall was dark, and the heated kang was very hot, so I lay down and fell asleep. When I woke up, my father and Yi Cheng were not awake yet. Mom, the bathhouse also has fried noodles, but they are not as delicious as those in the Kushiya , so sour."

"Okay, Mommy will make you some fried noodles, and you can rest after eating. We have to go on the road tomorrow."

"Then I'll help my mother light the fire."

When Li Yue saw this, he took his sister's hand and said that he would help pick vegetables.Yan Yixin and Li Huai also went out to help with some work.

Several people went downstairs and went straight to the backyard. The kitchen was next to the stables. Li Hui was not seen, nor was he in the lobby. He must have gone out.With Dexi and Tiandong following him, there is no need to worry.

In the kitchen, white peony root and ginkgo have been mixed and ready to roll out the noodles.I still have the chicken soup for lunch, and I’m going to make shredded chicken noodle soup.

Several people were busy, and a high-pitched voice came from behind -

"Hurry up and make it. Our aunt is hungry and wants to eat shredded chicken noodle soup. The shredded chicken must be torn evenly, not thick or thin, do you hear me?"

None of the six Cheng Xueniang paid attention to them, Bai Shao and Ging Guo didn't even look back.

Seeing that she was being left out, the mother-in-law immediately became unhappy and stepped forward to pull Cheng Xue away, but before she could touch her, Yan Yixin grabbed her shoulder and Li Heng directly pinched her wrist off.

"Gaba—"

"what--"

The mother-in-law screamed, and Cheng Xue glanced at Li Heng, who immediately put the broken wrist back on.

Another "Gahfa——" was heard, and the mother-in-law's forehead was covered with fine sweat.

Li Huai sighed loudly and said coldly:
"Who are you to touch my mother? My mother is a fourth-grade concubine granted by the emperor. Who are you yelling at!"

Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.

Although the little guy knows that he lives in a high official, a high official is a high official and a woman is a woman, so they cannot be compared.What's more, this is his mother, the mother that his brother, sister, and father all respect!

The little guy's stern scolding made the mother-in-law unbelievable.He looked Cheng Xue up and down, his brows furrowed.The wives and children of officials come to the kitchen. Isn't this nonsense?
Thinking of this, the mother-in-law felt emboldened and said, "Haha..." She sneered twice.

Before she could speak, Bai Shao smiled and said:
"Auntie is from Dingbeihou Mansion, right? We are the family members of Mr. Li, the new Governor of the Northern Territory. This is our wife, and these are young ladies and young masters. Our master likes to eat the noodles made by his wife, so she often cooks . The young master is filial to the ladies, so he often helps in the kitchen. I'm sorry for causing you misunderstanding. We will send a bowl of shredded chicken noodle soup to the Houfu aunt later, so don't worry. "

"No, no, no, no, no, no." The mother-in-law knelt on the ground in fear, trembling all over, "Please forgive me, Mr. Li Gong. I have eyes that don't recognize gold and jade. I'm sorry, I'm really sorry."

"It's okay. I know Mrs. Gu well. It's just two bowls of noodles. It's not a difficult task."

The more Cheng Xue had this attitude, the more frightened the mother-in-law became, and in the end she kowtowed "dong dong dong...".

"What are you doing, Aunt Chen? You are just a fourth-grade palace official. You are really embarrassing to Aunt Gui."
