good meal

Chapter 182
After ruling out this possibility, Chu Liangrao thought of another possibility, how could the Fifth Prince go to that Zhuangzi for no reason?If it is related to the royal family, will it be related to the queen?
This is not impossible, if this is the case, he can imagine it, would Yun Wanwan not know about it?

From the looks of it, this matter really cannot be treated optimistically. If it really comes to the point where there is no way out, I'm afraid I will have to confess to Chu Chaoyang.With Zhou's mother around, Chu Chaoyang should know the general idea of ​​the matter. When he speaks, he is also prepared, and it is not impossible to solve it when the time comes.

After thinking of several ways in his mind, Chu Liangrao still felt uneasy.

Seeing that Chu Liangrao frowned and sighed sometimes, Mother Du couldn't help but shouted worriedly: "Princess?"

"En." With a soft reply, Chu Liangrao consciously closed the window, and sat on the huanghuali recliner beside her, rocking gently.

Mother Du saw that Chu Liangrao had recovered, but the worry on her brows did not dissipate. Thinking of Mother Zhou's late return today, she said, "But what difficulties did you encounter?"

Chu Liangrao said, "It's something difficult." After thinking about it, she said, "It's about Zhu Xiucai."

Du's mother, who had heard a little about Zhu Xiucai's business, asked, "What happened to Mr. Zhu? Could it be that he lost money in his business?"

"It would be easy if you lost money." Chu Liangrao felt a desire to confide, but he endured it.

Mother Du couldn't help being anxious and asked, "What's wrong with Mr. Zhu?"

"It's something, but I've already figured out a solution, so don't worry." Chu Liangrao said vaguely, then picked up the unfinished recipe and looked at it again.

The more Chu Liangrao didn't talk about it, the more Mama Du felt that something serious had happened, but she also knew that it was useless to worry, so she simply turned the topic around to this cookbook: "The princess has read this cookbook over and over again. I’ve tried it all over, aren’t you tired of it?”

This book was given to Chu Liangrao by Huo Tainan. Mother Du said this to mediate the tense atmosphere in the house.

Chu Liangrao pursed his lips, and said, "How many times have I read it, only two or three times..."

"I don't see the princess living like this on weekdays. It seems that the things in this book really suit the princess's appetite."

Chu Liangrao shook his head with a smile, and said, "Mom, there are some highlights in this recipe, I'm just looking through it when I have nothing to do."

"Yes." Mother Du smiled and lowered her head.

After flipping through a few pages absently, Chu Liangrao said, "It's hot and muggy today, and I don't know if it will rain."

"Probably not, there are no clouds in the sky." Mother Du answered.

Chu Liangrao nodded, but she couldn't sleep again, so she simply asked someone to move a couch in the yard, and there was a small mahogany table next to it, with herbal tea and melons and fruits on it, which looked very cool.

Then hang a tent around it to avoid mosquitoes, Chu Liangrao lay on the couch, holding a round fan and gently fanning the wind.

Although there was no wind at night, the courtyard was a little less stuffy than the room. Looking up at the starry sky, Chu Liangrao's heart calmed down a little bit. As the saying goes, a calm mind naturally cools down. At this time, the hotness in her heart is really real. Calmed down quite a bit.

Before he knew it, Chu Liangrao fell asleep on this couch, and when Mother Du came to call, she didn't bother to get up, so she simply rested here.Mother Du couldn't help it, so she took a silk quilt to cover Chu Liangrao, and built a floor beside her so that Chu Liangrao would not have to order at night.

In the middle of the night, Chu Liangrao, who was drowsily asleep, opened his eyes and looked in front of him, only to see Mother Du huddled up on the floor, thinking that it would be bad for her to sleep on the floor at her age, so she forced her to slap her. Spirit sat up and called Mama Du.

Mother Du was already sleepy, but when she heard Chu Liangrao get up, she woke up, and when she learned that Chu Liangrao wanted to go into the house to rest, she agreed.

After a lot of tossing, Chu Liangrao lay down again, but this time she couldn't fall asleep anyway.

After tossing and turning and thinking about his thoughts for a long time, Chu Liangrao felt sleepy. He closed his eyes and didn't sleep for a long time when the morning drum sounded.

She didn't rest well that night, and Chu Liangrao's energy level was not as good as usual, but fortunately she was young, after washing her face and eating breakfast, she couldn't tell the difference.After greeting the old lady, Chu Liangrao went back to the room and waited for news from Yunfu.

But when lunch was set, there was no news of anyone coming to visit, Chu Liangrao, who was originally quiet, couldn't sit still.

With Mama Du watching, I still had to eat this meal. After a few mouthfuls, someone came to announce that Mrs. Yun was here.

Chu Liangrao wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and got off the table, ordering Ding Xiang to invite someone in.

Mother Du couldn't help but slander, why did the people from Yunfu have no eyesight at all, and came to visit at the meal time, didn't they mean not to let people eat?But looking at Chu Liangrao's appearance, it seemed that she had been waiting for a long time, so Mother Du simply didn't say anything, she just asked a few maids to clean up the table, and asked some delicious snacks to be served on the table.

After a while, Mrs. Yun Wu with a gentle face followed Ding Xiang to Chu Liangrao, Shi Shiran saluted, and she said: "Little lady is really rude, I kept you waiting for a long time."

Chu Liangrao said no courtesy, then sat down casually, and asked someone to pour tea with a smile.

After exchanging a few casual pleasantries, Chu Liangrao asked about the recent situation of Yunfu.

Seeing that the question was on the right topic, Mrs. Wu looked embarrassed and said, "Recently, several businesses in the house have gone wrong, and my father-in-law and my husband are both very troubled by this matter. It is precisely because of this that the little lady came here today." late."

Hearing this, Chu Liangrao guessed that the Yunfu did not want to cooperate. Although he had expected it, he was still disappointed.However, she did not serve tea to the guests directly, but smiled and comforted: "It is said that shopping malls are like battlefields. If there is a profit, there will be a loss. If you want to be invincible, you will inevitably have to spend more time."

"That's exactly the reason." Wu said with a smile, "It's just that, but the little lady's sister-in-law is sick again, so I postponed this time."

Chu Liangrao leaned forward slightly, with a puzzled look on his face: "Is Shanshan sick? When did it happen? How seriously ill?"

Mrs. Wu sighed, and said: "It's been a few days, but I just can't eat. The doctor has seen it, and I have taken medicine, but it still hasn't improved. Seeing that the child has lost a lot of weight, it's really hard to be a sister-in-law. I feel sad." Raising his hand to dip the corner of his eyes, Wu forced a smile on his face and said, "The little lady made the princess laugh."

"It's okay." Chu Liangrao waved his hand, feeling strange about Yun Shanshan's illness, but he didn't ask any further questions, and said, "Since that's the case, you have to take good care of it."

"That's for sure." Wu Shi said.

Speaking of this, Chu Liangrao didn't mention Zhu Xiucai's matter anymore. After all, that matter was not a trivial matter. As a wealthy businessman in the capital, Yunfu would never have heard of it. She could neither blame nor lose her share by making such an excuse. Simply stopped the topic.
