"Why not? Those two children were eating preserved eggs as snacks. I saw them this time. How many times have I not seen them?"

Xin Nian stood up suddenly, with a layer of evil between his brows and eyes. Gu Changting hurriedly grabbed her and said funny: "Why are you so impatient? Don't panic, even if you eat it as a snack, how long has it been since you moved to the backyard? Eat preserved eggs

When does it start again? It’s less than a year, what are you afraid of? Tell me, ask Yaya Liu carefully, and then tell them not to eat it in the future, that’s fine, don’t scare the children for no reason.”

After Gu Changting said this, Xin Nianfang calmed down, pondered for a moment, and began to think about it. She turned to Gu Changting and smiled: "You are right, I am confused because I am concerned. When I heard that this preserved egg is not good, I became anxious.

"If you hadn't stopped me and rushed over now, I might have scared the children. Anyway, I won't allow them to eat from today on. I don't think there will be any big problems."

"Don't worry, nothing will happen. And you don't have to kill him with a stick. You can eat one every three to five days."

Xin Nian nodded, and then said distressedly: "You said I really don't understand, what's so delicious about that preserved egg? It has a pungent smell, and I don't even like eating it."

"I think the taste is pretty good. Although it's a bit irritating to the nose, it really doesn't have a strong aroma." Gu Changting raised his eyebrows: "It seems like the two children followed me."

Xin Nian looked at him helplessly: "How dare you say that? The noble prince of the palace likes to eat in these markets."

"Don't tell me, there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the food in that market." When Gu Changting said this, his eyes lit up, and he leaned into Xin Nian's ear and said, "One night, while the children are sleeping, I will take you to Nancheng.

The snack street is not only lively, but also has delicious snacks from all over the world on various stalls.”

"Have the children gone to bed? There will be curfew by then, right?"

Xin Nian was puzzled, and Gu Changting smiled and said: "That place in Nancheng is a place where dragons and snakes are mixed, and the government turns a blind eye. But even so, what are the two of us afraid of? You and I are a husband and wife, how can he be a gangster?

You local ruffians, come and beat one, come two and beat a pair, you have the right to eliminate harm for the people."

His words made Xin Nian laugh. He stretched out his hand to pinch his mouth and whispered: "Listen to this, it sounds like a prince said it..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly heard someone shouting loudly in the courtyard outside: "Is the prince here? The concubine is looking for him."

Xin Nian hurriedly let go of his hand and whispered: "The concubine is looking for you, go quickly."

"It's probably about Brother Feng. Okay, I'll go over there and have dinner at my mother's place at noon. You don't have to wait for me. I'll come over in the evening."

"good."

Xin Nian nodded and sent him out. After watching the person go away, Fang turned back and thought for a moment with a sullen face. She said to Li Zhi: "Go to the kitchen and call Sanniang over."

"yes."

Seeing that her face was not kind, Li Zhi didn't dare to ask any more questions. Just as she was about to go out, she heard someone talking in the yard, so she turned around and said with a smile, "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here. Auntie, Sanniang is here."

Xin Nian couldn't help but smile: "What a coincidence, let her come in."

Soon Du Sanniang walked in with a basket. Xin Nian didn't pay attention at first, but he just glanced at the basket and his eyes were fixed.

Seeing her staring at the basket, Du Sanniang hurriedly put it down, saluted and said with a smile: "Sixth Young Master and Fourth Miss like to eat these eggs very much, so I will send more here today. It's still cold in spring now.

It won't go bad if you keep it for ten to eight days, and it saves Miss Luye from having to run to the kitchen every now and then just to get this."

Xin Nian raised his eyebrows and said calmly: "Does Luye always want this in the past?"

"Yes." Du Sanniang wiped her hands on her apron twice and took out the account book from her arms. Just as she was about to speak, Xin Nian waved her hand and said, "We'll talk about the account reimbursement later. You tell me first."

Speaking of this preserved egg, when did Luye start going to the kitchen to ask for this?"

"Ah?" Du Sanniang was a little surprised, and asked Qiqi Ai Ai: "Auntie, but what's wrong with this egg...?"

"It has nothing to do with you, just tell the truth."

"oh."

Du Sanniang

Nodding, she realized from Xin Nian's face that the matter was not simple. She quickly frowned and recalled carefully, murmuring: "I remember that since Nian Genxia, ​​Lu Ye came to the kitchen more often. Every time she came,

I must have a few preserved eggs. These are not available on the table, so I don’t prepare many. They are just for the servants to satisfy their cravings occasionally. Since Miss Luye always came to ask for them, I pickled some more."

"Nian Gen, which is the late twelfth lunar month, can you be accurate about the time?"

Du Sanniang nodded: "Yes. I always pay attention to the people who go to our courtyard..." At this point, she smiled sheepishly and whispered: "My aunt is good to me, and I know that I can repay the kindness. So.

I remember everything we want in the yard."

Xin Nian smiled "Pfft": "Or you have to train your own people, how considerate." After saying that, he said seriously: "So you can be sure that Lu Ye started to go to the kitchen under the new year's roots. Every time

You’re all going to ask for preserved eggs, right?”

"Yes." Du Sanniang said without hesitation, "I'm sure. The main reason is that there are very few of these things in our kitchen. If she goes to ask for it, she only needs to go there once or twice. There are many times, so I can't possibly not know about it."

"Okay, I understand." Xin Nian breathed out a sigh of relief: "Okay, please give me the accounts for this half month."

After Du Sanniang reported the account, she said goodbye and left. As soon as she reached the door, she heard Xin Nian stop her and said: "Take these preserved eggs back and share them with the people in the kitchen. Children will eat too many preserved eggs."

Okay, don't eat too much. If each person eats one, it will be finished in two or three days. There will be no need to prepare more of this in the kitchen in the future."

"yes."

Du Sanniang agreed and carried the basket out. Here Lychee stepped forward and asked softly: "Auntie, it seems that Luye's hoof has been bribed by someone, and he has no good intentions towards the Sixth Young Master and the Fourth Young Master."

"Eighty percent yes." Xin Nian looked cold and said in a deep voice, "Don't say anything for now, so as not to alert others. I want to see who gave her such courage?"

"Yes. What are you going to do, aunt?"

Xin Nian thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "I still need to call Liu Zai and Yaya over to ask. In addition, I will ask them to cooperate with me to act out a play for that hoof. Once she believes it is true, she will definitely go to the master.

If you take credit in front of us, then we will know who is behind the scenes."

"But the sixth young master and the fourth girl are so young, how can they act in this scene? Don't expose the secret again, it will be bad if Luye sees it and gets defensive."

"It doesn't matter, it's not a difficult scene. I think Liu Zai and Yaya should be able to handle it."

Thinking of his two smart babies, Xin Nian put a gentle smile on his face, stood up and said: "You go and do your work, I will go find Yaya Liu, they are probably with Brother Feng at the moment.
