Chapter 305 Third Aunt Visits
Waking up the next day, Yao Cunhui raised her hand to touch the side, and found that Shen Quan had gotten up at some time, so she sat up quickly and called Red Polygonum in a loud voice.

"Princess, you're awake!" Hong Liao came in with the brocade curtain up and smiled, then turned her head and told Hong Ling to urge hot water.

"When did the prince get up? Why don't you call me!" Yao Cunhui frowned slightly.Although there is no need to go to the elders to say hello to her for two days before returning home, but her husband has already remembered what she said as a wife, and it is shameful to lie on the bed in a big way.

Red Polygonum rushed up to help her dress while whispering: "The servants got up before the prince got up. Yesterday when Xiao Xing was keeping watch, Xiao Xing said that the prince ordered the princess to sleep for a while, and the servants were not allowed to scream. princess!"

After hearing this, Yao Cunhui still said: "It can't be like this in the future. Although the prince has good intentions, how many pairs of eyes are staring at him in the back house! Got it?"

Red Polygonum shuddered, and answered in a low voice.

Yao Cunhui washed and dressed, and asked: "Your lord went out early in the morning?" She got up earlier than the maids, so she must be rushing to do some important business.

Unexpectedly, Hong Liao shook his head and said: "No, the prince has gone to practice martial arts."

Yao Cunhui was startled, packed up and went there too.

Pushing the door open, I saw Shen Quan wearing a loose white mid-lane practicing sword. In the light of morning light, his vigorous posture was jumping and jumping, which caught the eye. Yao Cunhui couldn't help clapping her hands and cheering.

"Hui'er!" Shen Quan drew back his sword and stopped, walked towards Yao Cunhui, raised his hand to hold her arm and said with a smile, "Why don't you sleep a little longer?" The woman in front of her was wearing a willow-colored shirt and her hair was loosely arranged. At the back of the head, it is only fixed with sapphire hairpins and a few fine pearl flowers, which is refreshing and elegant, making people forget the vulgarity.

"I've slept well!" Yao Cunhui smiled, and saw thin sweat oozing from his forehead, face, and neck, so he took out a handkerchief to wipe it for him, and said angrily, "I heard that you wake up before dawn." gone?"

Shen Quan took her hand and sat down under the shed, and said with a faint smile, "The east has turned pale. I've been like this since I was a child, and I'm used to it. Didn't I disturb you when I got up?"

Yao Cunhui felt weak in his heart, and said that it took ten years to sharpen his sword, which was true. He worked so hard since he was a child, and there is no chance to achieve today's achievements.

"No, I slept well." Yao Cunhui shook his head with a smile, and poured tea for him when he saw a teapot beside him.

"Well, I think so too!" Shen Quan's lips twitched suddenly, and his eyes said something ambiguously.

"You have the nerve to say it!" Yao Cunhui shook his hand, raised his head and glared at him coquettishly.

Shen Quan laughed loudly, raised his hand to caress her face and sighed contentedly: "Who told me my wife is so good!"

Yao Cunhui felt sweetness in his heart, and his delicate red lips curled up slightly.

It's a pity that such a charming and gentle feeling was destroyed by this person in the next second, only to hear him sigh regretfully: "It's a pity that your body is too weak!"

"Then what? What happens after you finish training?" Yao Cunhui glared at him angrily.How can there be such a person!
Shen Quan laughed and reached out to get the tea she had poured out, but Yao Cunhui flicked his hand back and refused to give it.

"What? Hui'er is angry?" Shen Quan was funny, why didn't he drink tea when he was angry?But don't give it if you don't give it, as long as you don't give him to bed.

"You were sweating from the heat just now after practicing the sword. Ask someone to prepare hot tea in the future. Don't drink this cold one, it will easily hurt your stomach!" Yao Cunhui spilled the tea on the ground.

Shen Quan's eyes softened suddenly, he stared at her and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, I'm used to drinking cold after sword practice! But, I listen to you, if you say no to drinking, I will stop drinking it!"

For so many years, isn't what he desires and expects is such a caring warmth?No one gave it to him except her.Sure enough, he didn't love the wrong person, she was worth his whole life to wait and care for.

"Let's go, let's go back to the house!" Shen Quan smiled and held her hand.

When the two returned to the house, Daylily and Vanilla had asked someone to prepare hot water, Daylily also found the clean clothes and put them aside, then retreated.Shen Quan's habits for many years, they are naturally clear.

Shen Quan went to take a bath and wipe himself, and Yao Cunhui asked Xiao Xing to take a little girl to the kitchen to get breakfast.

Although Xihetang has a small kitchen, it is also equipped with a cook and two helpers, but they are all married before this marriage. Shen Quan's meals have always been cooked in the big kitchen.Yao Cunhui has only been in the house for two days, so she doesn't want to change it immediately and ask people to gossip, and wants to delay talking for a while.The kitchen in the mansion is the most important place, and the errands in it are all the sons and daughters of the Shen family who have worked for several lifetimes, so there is no possibility that there will be any problems with the diet, otherwise, the whole family will not have to work!
What Yao Cunhui didn't expect was that just after Xiao Xing got her breakfast from the kitchen and put it on the table, the little girl came to report that the third lady was here!

Lu Shi?Yao Cunhui was secretly surprised, what was Mrs. Lu doing here so early in the morning?
Yao Cunhui rushed out to greet her, smiled and bowed her knees to greet her: "Third Aunt!"

"Oh, I can't help it! I can't bear such a big gift from the princess!" Seeing Yao Cunhui saluting, Mrs. Lu hurried forward to support her and refused to accept the gift.

Yao Cunhui saw that she didn't seem to be talking ironically or sarcasticly, but she had a sincere expression on her face, so she didn't insist, and said with a smile: "Third Aunt, how can I be worthy of you! You are an elder, don't call me Princess Wangfei!" I’m so embarrassed! You can call me Hui’er or nephew and daughter-in-law!”

"The concubine is really kind, so let me call you my niece and daughter-in-law!" Shi Lu boasted with a smile.

Yao Cunhui responded with a smile, and hurriedly raised her hand to invite Mrs. Lu into the room, "What brought you here early in the morning, come in quickly!"

"It's nothing, I'm just passing by, and come in to ask my niece and daughter-in-law how they taste, what kind of dishes they like to eat on weekdays, and what kind of breakfast they like, so I can ask the kitchen to prepare it in advance!" Lu said with a smile.

During the conversation, the two had already entered the house.

Yao Cunhui has already seen the breakfast that Xiaoxing brought back just now. There are more than a dozen kinds of porridge, tea soup, pastries, side dishes and pickles. Zhen porridge, almond tea, tofu brain, noodle tea, mahjong biscuits, horseshoe biscuits, milk chess pieces, steamed buns, chestnut nests, white sugar cakes, crystal shrimp dumplings, clear oil cakes, spring roll boxes, etc., all served in a white and compact box Among the bowls and dishes, there are not many of them, and they are so meticulously made that they are pleasing to the eye.There are also several plates of fine side dishes and pickles, which are bright in color and attractive in aroma. Just looking at it will greatly increase your appetite.

"What a pity! There are too many, and you can just make a few random ones in the future. How can the prince and I eat so much, nothing is wasted, and it will also cause trouble for the kitchen! As for the daily dishes, You can do whatever you buy in the big kitchen, I don’t have any taboos!" Yao Cunhui smiled and said: "Third Aunt Lao is bothering, I’m really sorry!"

"Nephew and daughter-in-law, please don't say that!" Lu said with a smile: "You are Princess Zhenxi, the official mistress of this mansion, and it should be like this according to the rules. If your place is simple, what should others do?" What should we do? It’s bad if the rules are messed up! You are saving money with good intentions, but others are complaining about embarrassing you on purpose! Hehe, my aunt thinks that you are her own person, so don’t mind!”

Yao Cunhui's heart skipped a beat, he was not sure what Lu's words meant, but he said with a smile on his face: "Third Aunt is willing to teach, I am very grateful, why would you mind?"

Lu Shi hurriedly smiled and said he didn't dare to take it, and got up and said: "In that case, I'll go first, you can eat breakfast slowly! At noon, ask someone to make shrimp mixed with cucumber, cold lotus root slices, fish roe tofu, pine nut square meat, meat Shredded ruyi vegetables, steamed yellow croaker, stewed black-bone chicken with lotus seeds and gastrodia elata, shredded chicken ham with winter bamboo shoots, diced chicken with walnuts, steamed beef eggs, salted egg yolk corn kernels, stir-fried seasonal vegetables, and three delicacies soup with hair vegetables, what do you think? If you have a taste you want to eat, just ask someone to talk about it!"

With what she said earlier, Yao Cunhui couldn't say things like "wasting" and "don't need so much", so she nodded with a smile, said a few more polite words, and sent Mrs. Lu to the corridor.Lu Shi insisted not to let her see her off again, so Yao Cunhui smiled and stopped, watching Lu Shi pass the courtyard and exit the hall before turning back.
