C204 (1/2)

On the eighth day of the third month of the twelfth month, at the beginning of the final Yin hour of the ugly season, the servants in the Xu Family kitchen had already woken up to boil a porridge.

By the time Dong Shu had finally woken up, the porridge in the kitchen was almost ready. She had originally wanted to do it herself, but had slept late last night and hadn't been able to get up early in the morning.

It would be too late to cook it again, so Dong Shu could only use the ingredients prepared by the servants to personally stew some pastries, leaving it for later on to eat with the porridge.

After the pastries were steamed into the pot, Dong Shu busily took out a small plate and prepared a few appetizers.

”Alright, prepare to send some to Old Madame. Also, there's the porridge from the various manors, so remember to be safe. When delivering porridge to Fifth Prince Palace, remember to bring some snacks. ” After she finished speaking to the servants in the large kitchen, Dong Shu paused for a bit before continuing, ”I'll go change my clothes first. Later, I'll lead the young lady to Old Madame's courtyard to eat breakfast, and send the portion between me and the young lady over.”

Dong Shu did not forget to walk outside even while speaking. When she reached the entrance of the kitchen, she turned and said to the Wang's Disease behind her in a low voice: ”Later, prepare a set of food and send it to Yanzhu's courtyard. Remember to not disturb the people inside the house.

After observing the Wang's Disease for a year, coupled with the fact that the eldest son of the Wang's Disease was already Xu Shiqiu's personal soldier and his man Zhang Ershan went all out to save his, he had become her trusted aide now.

These matters, it was inconvenient for Dong Shu to instruct the Mama Yan to do these things, as most of them were accomplished by him.

Wang's Disease did not become impatient at all when it comes to these things. Not only did he firmly remember Dong Shu's instructions, he even paid extra attention to them bit by bit.

After Dong Shu washed up and changed into a clean and fresh set of clothes, Yuanxi also woke up and had the wet clothes changed by the wet nurse.

Seeing Yuanxi, Dong Shu first kissed her pink, small face, then said to her: ”Today, other than preparing a big pot of porridge, I even specially made you some rice porridge in the big kitchen. ”In a while, Grandmother and Mother will eat the rice porridge, and you will eat the rice porridge.” After saying that to Yuanxi, Dong Shu once again kissed Yuanxi on the cheek.

Yuanxi was still a little dazed initially, but when she was kissed twice by Dong Shu in succession, she immediately regained her senses and raised her little head, which had been tied up in a braid, and also kissed Dong Shu on the cheek.

Because of Yuanxi's actions, Dong Shu's mood became a lot better the entire morning because her husband was not home.

When she brought Yuanxi to the Main Yard, Old Madame Xu, with the help of the servants, washed up and waited in the hall for him.

After such a long time, Yuanxi had completely awakened. When she saw Old Madame Xu, he excitedly waved her fat arms and greeted Old Madame Xu.

Seeing that Yuanxi was still lively despite all her clothes, the Old Madame Xu smiled as he looked at the two of them, ”Our Yuanxi is growing up to be better. When the year is over, I will definitely invite my close friends to help her organize a Zhou Duo feast.”

If the things that happened at the end of the year really went smoothly, then in another year, they would definitely have a banquet in Xu Family to liaise with their friends and family.

Dong Shu did not care so much, but when she heard her mother-in-law praise Yuanxi, she immediately revealed a smile.

Amidst Yuanxi's babbling, the two of them finished the porridge happily. Although Xu Shiqiu was not at home, because today was a festive day, they did not mention anything sad.

As soon as the third generation finished their breakfast, they heard the gatekeeper's annual gift delivered to them.

The moment the servant woman's voice fell, Xu Nuanwen did not wait for his to pass down the information, and directly brought Ye Xuan into the Old Madame Xu's Main Yard.

”Mother, my husband and Brother Huan want to enter the palace to express our gratitude.” My mother, my husband, and Brother Huan want to enter the palace to express their gratitude. After saying that, Xu Nuanwen immediately walked towards Yuanxi, and without caring about Yuanxi's struggles, she snatched Yuanxi who was in Dong Shu's embrace and fiercely kissed him twice, leaving a blush on Yuanxi's face. Only then did she look at Old Madame Xu and continue: ”The pastries that I sent over this morning were not bad, after Xuan Ge'er ate two pieces I did not let him continue eating.

Dong Shu was stunned when she heard Yuanxi's unhappy snort, only then did she come back to her senses and coax Yuanxi. She looked at Yuanxi, whose ponytail had already become crooked, and said to Xu Nuanwen, ”I thought that today's Laba Porridge would be mostly sweet, so I made two kinds of salted pastries. Since Xuan Ge'er likes to eat this kind of taste, then I will get someone to write down the prescription for elder sister to bring back later. ”

After saying these words to Xu Nuanwen, Dong Shu then looked to the side. Because of his mother's words, Ye Xuan's face was slightly flushed as he said, ”It's a good thing that Xuan Ge'er likes to eat third aunt's cakes. Right now, you just need to eat more to strengthen your body. Coming here is the same as coming here, you can't be polite. ”
