Chapter 751: Substitute Sister
"Qi Feng, what did the princess send over today?" Working until midnight, Duan Huaijin asked subconsciously.
Qi Feng's face was embarrassed, and he said cautiously: "Lord Wang, Miss Ye Qiu has already gone to Zhuangzi, tonight's night food is sent from the big kitchen, and it is also made according to the menu given by Miss Ye Qiu, it is chicken noodles, does Lord Wang want to use it now?" ”
After Qi Feng said this, Duan Huaijin remembered that Ye Qiu was no longer his princess, and now he didn't live in the mansion, so naturally there was no night food she cooked for him today.
"Bring it up." After a moment of silence, he said.
The chef used to be a royal chef, and his cooking skills are naturally good, the shredded chicken noodles are still steaming hot when they are served, and the fragrance is tangy, and each piece of chicken shredded chicken is uniform in size, clear in texture, and sprinkled with green green onions, which looks delicious and attractive.
However, Duan Huaijin frowned for a moment before picking up the thin noodles with chopsticks, and as soon as he entered his mouth, his brows wrinkled even deeper.
In the end, he didn't finish this bowl of shredded chicken noodles, he only ate a few bites and put it down, and most of it was left.
"Pull it off."
"Lord Wang, someone is here from Donghu Garden, please come over."
"Hmm." Duan Huaijin was not going to deal with it, but he didn't know what he thought, so he got up and prepared to go over.
Here, Ye Xia was excited when she received the news that Duan Huaijin was coming to her, and she sorted out her well-dressed makeup before standing at the door and waiting.
"Lord Wang, you're here." Ye Xia saluted shyly.
Duan Huaijin walked past her and sat on the chair before saying, "Princess, let's be flat." ”
Ye Xia's face was embarrassed for a moment, but he quickly recovered, Ying Ying walked to his side, and said coquettishly: "Why doesn't the prince call me Xia Xia now?" ”
Duan Huaijin glanced at her deeply, and made Ye Xia uneasy, before he said slowly: "It's not a good thing, why did the princess call me over so late?" ”
Ye Xia heard him say that he was unseemly and thought that he was saying that she had no rules, but she quickly reacted that she was now a princess, and it was really inappropriate to call Xia Xia again, so she was happy again, sure enough, the prince cared about her, and he was thinking about her everywhere.
"The concubine heard that the prince had to eat at night every night, so she personally made a few small dishes and wanted to invite the prince to taste them." Ye Xia said, and the maids brought the rich meal to the table.
"It's all the prince's favorite food, this fish ball was made by the concubine herself, and it took half an hour to pick the thorns, the prince tried it." Ye Xia personally scooped a bowl for Duan Huaijin.
Duan Huaijin looked at the bowl full of fish balls, and then looked at the bird's nest porridge that Ye Xia continued to serve for him, and suddenly it was not a taste, Ye Xia was raising him as a pig? Who eats so much at night? Do you want to sleep at night?
When he thought about it like this, he thought of Ye Qiu again, she would never be like this, although the patterns sent every day were different, but they were all small bowls, just enough to warm the stomach, but she would not feel bloated and unable to sleep.
Thinking about it, he lost his appetite and didn't even want to move.
Ye Xia's face was embarrassed, and he asked cautiously, "Why doesn't the prince eat it?" ”
"No, don't be hungry." Duan Huaijin said coldly.
"It's the concubine who is not thoughtful." Ye Xia gritted his teeth secretly, but he couldn't lose his temper, so he could only endure it by himself.
"Have you rearranged this house?" Duan Huaijin said suddenly.
Ye Xia saw that he had no expression, and he was worried in his heart, could he blame her? So he boldly tried to say: "After all, the second sister lived in the past, and my preferences and the second sister are different, so I changed it again, isn't the prince happy?" If the prince doesn't like it, the concubine can be replaced. ”
After speaking, her expression was aggrieved, and Duan Huaijin was upset: "No need." ”
When Ye Xia heard him answer, he immediately put his mind at ease, but he didn't know that Duan Huaijin was thinking of something else, when Ye Qiu first married in, he had a grudge against her, so naturally he didn't let his subordinates clean up the best yard, and this courtyard is now Ye Xia living again, how can he live for Ye Qiu again in the future? Naturally, it has to be changed again, and it has to be replaced with a better one, so this yard Ye Xia loves to get it as much as he wants.
But he thought so, but others didn't, Ye Xia thought that he had won, and Qi Feng also felt sorry for Ye Qiu in his heart.
"The concubine will come and wait for the prince to wash." Ye Xia was relieved in his heart, so he was even more bold, his face was flushed, and he was already standing behind Duan Huaijin, stretching out his hand to prepare to loosen his clothes for him.
"What are you doing?" Duan Huaijin said coldly, dodging her hand.
Ye Xia's hands froze in place, embarrassed: "It's so late, won't the prince stay and rest?" ”
"This king still has official business, so he will leave first."
Ye Xia caught up: "Then why did the prince come over tonight?" ”
Duan Huaijin didn't look back, could it be that he originally wanted to ask about Ye Qiu? But the words can't be asked?
He wasn't stupid, and after coming here, he knew that he probably couldn't ask anything good in Ye Xia's mouth, so he didn't want to hear it.
Looking at his ruthless back, Ye Xia secretly hated in her heart, feeling that he must be in love with Ye Qiuyu, and under deep hatred, she sent someone to Zhuangzi in Ye Qiu's countryside, and even drove away the only tenant who could provide them with living materials.
"Miss, this eldest lady is inevitably too ruthless, why don't you go and beg the prince?" The nurse looked at Ye Qiu and said with a distressed face.
"No nurse." Ye Qiu coughed heavily, "Sister, she wants revenge, she won't let us see the face of the prince, I still have some silver here, let's take it and buy some with other farmers first." ”
"Hey!"
"Hibiscus, peony, this is 10,000 taels of silver, the two of you are 5,000 taels each, take the deed of sale and return to your family, stay with me and wronged you." Ye Qiu's weak Dao.
When the two maids heard her say this, they all cried and knelt down: "No, miss, we don't leave you, how can you leave us at this time?" ”
"Be obedient, don't let me say more, my time is running out, as soon as I leave, Ye Xia will not treat you well in order to vent her anger."
"Then we will fight with the eldest lady to the end, and we must let the prince know her true face."
"Are you stupid?" Ye Qiu sighed, "Lord Wang, he loves her now, not me, how can he listen to you?" ”
"Then we're not leaving." The two maids are resolute-willed.
Ye Qiu had no choice but to retreat: "Then you can collect this deed of sale and silver ticket by yourself, and if there is anything wrong, leave immediately." ”
"Yes, slave and maid, Miss Xie."
Duan Huaijin didn't know that Ye Qiu's condition was getting worse and worse because of the harsh environment, and he was still waiting for her to admit his mistake to him, and when he finally couldn't stand it and took the initiative to ask for Ye Qiu's news, it was already too late.
