Chapter 176

Hui'er had never seen anything big in the world, so she was so nervous that she had to hurry to the backyard to fetch hot water.Fatty Jia also ran to the backyard and said, "Tell you two to go back quickly, it's okay now, you were hit."

Pomegranate scooped hot water into the basin and said, "Sister-in-law, don't be afraid. I see that person is about the same age as Qian Feng. He must not be a high-ranking official. Even a high-ranking official is not afraid, and he can't eat people."

Fatty Jia didn't tell them the identities of the two princes, for fear of shocking them.Hui'er came forward with hot water, and Fatty Jia followed behind her tremblingly.

The two of them came to the door of the eldest prince, Qian Feng knocked on the door, Hui'er went in with water, Jia Dapang and Qian Feng stood by the door together.

Seeing Hui'er coming in, the eldest prince just glanced at her, and sat at the table reading a book.Seeing that he didn't come to wash his face, Hui'er had no choice but to wet the towel by himself, then walked over and handed it to the First Prince.

The eldest prince took the towel, washed his face, wiped his hands, and returned the towel to Huier, who took it with both hands.Seeing that Hui'er's hands were trembling, he couldn't help frowning, "Have you never served anyone before?"

Hui'er nodded and lowered her eyes, said in a panic, "No...no."

The First Prince glanced at the room, "This inn seems to be newly built, which officials have been here before I came?"

Hui'er said with a trembling voice: "The two adults are... the first batch to come."

"Oh." The First Prince waved his hand at her, "Go out."

If Hui'er received the rescue order, she hurried out with water. When she went out, her head was covered with fine sweat.Fatty Jia followed Hui'er to the backyard before he dared to ask, "What did he tell you?"

Hui'er told Fatty Jia about the simple conversation just now, and Fatty Jia relaxed a little, thinking that what the prince asked was quite normal.

The eldest prince suddenly came out with the book again, and went to sit in the pavilion, Qian Feng had no choice but to stand by the pavilion again.The eldest prince was quite leisurely, eating fruit with his hands outstretched, staring at the book, and smiling lightly from time to time.

Qian Feng stood far away, and couldn't tell what book he was reading. Is this book really so interesting?

Shiliu and Hui'er were busy making puff pastry in the kitchen, because the cook had gone to buy vegetables, and the two princes might be tired and hungry on the way, so they made something first, lest people want to eat but can't get anything come out.

It was Pomegranate who proposed making the thousand-layer cake, and she recalled: "That time Qian Feng and I went to Yicheng, and we ate the thousand-layer cake. Afterwards, I was always craving this, so I figured out how to make it myself, and made it a few times. , I found that the taste got better and better. They are used to eating big meals when they are officials, so maybe they like this kind of cake."

Fatty Jia watched from the side and nodded, "Only in Yicheng can you find real layer cakes. Maybe they haven't eaten them before. Make them well."

Hui'er raised her head and said, "Why don't you go ahead and wait, what are you doing hiding here?"

Fatty Jia rubbed his hands, "You Qianfeng is here, he looks upright, and he looks like that standing in front of the two adults. I am full of flesh, big head and small eyes, if the two adults can't see It’s not good if Shunyan troubles me.”

Hui'er chuckled, "Look at you, you're worthless."

Not long after, the little prince also came out, Qian Feng hurriedly went to the backyard to ask Hui'er to fetch hot water again, seeing that they had made layer cakes, he brought them out by the way.

Hui'er waited for the little prince to wash his face, brought two cups of tea, and went to the kitchen without going out.

The two princes were very interested in seeing the steaming hot mille-layer cake brought by Qian Feng, and each took a piece and ate it.

The eldest prince took a few mouthfuls, and smiled at the little prince: "Little brother, I didn't expect this cake to be quite delicious. We have never eaten such a delicious cake on this journey."

The little prince replied: "That's because you are hungry, we still ate in the morning, it's already evening, can you not be hungry?"

The eldest prince suddenly looked at Qian Feng, "You are a postman, why don't you see the postman?"

Qian Feng stepped forward and bowed: "The one standing with me at the door just now is Yicheng."

The eldest prince snorted, "That big fat man? Why does he look like a postman, and you look like a postman?"

Qian Feng smiled and said: "We are as close as brothers. He said that he was afraid that he would not be able to appear on the stage because of his bad looks, so he asked me to serve you. If he does errands, he will do it."

The eldest prince laughed and said: "Interesting, there is such a postman, quite self-aware. You go about your business, I have something to talk to my younger brother, so don't wait here."

Qian Feng bowed back and walked all the way to the backyard, heaving a sigh of relief, he was finally liberated, it was really tiring to stand there all the time.

Seeing Qian Feng coming, Shiliu stuffed the cake into his mouth and said, "Before you told me and my sister-in-law to hide in the house, but now there is no need to hide, the officials don't care about these things."

Qian Feng sat down and ate some cakes, and then drank a few sips of water, "It's only now that I realize that the work of serving people is really difficult. Just standing still makes my whole body sore, and I have to concentrate on listening, afraid of being ordered."
