After being expelled from the palace, she returned with her cub and amazed the whole city

"Yes, Miss Jiang's family has a big business, so she won't get married." People say that eating people is soft-spoken and short-handed, and Matchmaker Wang felt that there was nothing wrong with Miss Jiang's words from the bottom of her heart.

There is an unwritten rule in the Wanling Kingdom that a brother-in-law who is marrying into a wife will not take a concubine.

Miss Jiang's cousin has become an official again. He has money and support. He would not marry anyone else, but his mother-in-law made a rule and made him a concubine.

Mrs. Zhen took a breath of cold air. There were not many male grandchildren in the Zhen family, and the eldest grandson was talented, so there was no reason to marry into the family.

Madam Zhen took a while to calm down her disappointed mood, and asked Matchmaker Wang to get the reward and send her out of the house.

After Zhen Jingxiu learned the news, he returned to his room silently.

Su Jin and Xie Yunchen went to make an appointment with him the next day and learned that he had fallen ill due to a cold.

For several days, matchmakers came to visit from time to time, but the concierge declined and did not notify her again.

Jiang Shuyue later directly asked the concierge to tell the matchmaker that the Jiang family had chosen a son-in-law.

This matter makes Qiu Ju worried.

Those matchmakers who came to propose marriage were from noble families in the capital, and Qiu Ju understood it all.

After three days, the house was finally as quiet as ever. After Jiang Shuyue returned from the medical clinic, she wrote the mooncake recipe in the flower hall.

Qiu Ju walked in with tea, and the afterglow of the setting sun made the leaves outside the window turn a little more yellow.

Jiang Shuyue put down the pen in her hand and stretched her arms. Qiu Ju poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to her.

"Miss, we have announced to the public that you are engaged, and there will really be no chance to throw the embroidery ball in the future. Do you already have the best candidate in mind?"

"No." Jiang Shuyue shook her head gently. For some reason, that monster's face appeared in her mind involuntarily.

Qiu Ju's eyes rolled around. "Business in the restaurant has been very good these days. The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching and there are not many guests checking in at the inn. Is Mr. Nangong going back home to celebrate the festival?"

"Maybe. He said he would come back a few days ago, but he didn't come back after he learned that Suisui had gone to the palace."

Qiu Ju asked again: "Miss, tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, so Suisui should be back, right?"

Jiang Shuyue looked out the window. There was no joy and laughter in the garden. She always felt that something was missing.

Since Sui Nan was away from home, except for going to the dining room to eat, Su Nan spent the rest of the time in the house reading and writing.

Su Jin was almost invisible these days. Zhen Jingxiu was ill. Lin Xiangzhi and Xie Yunchen took him to gather with other scholars. In just a few days, he got to know many young talents.

Jiang Shuyue was silent for a moment and then said uncertainly: "He should let Sui Sui go home for the holidays, right?"

"Miss, I heard that the true master is ill. Should we send him a gift to express our feelings?"

Jiang Shuyue waved her hands quickly, "No! Please don't. The concierge said that Matchmaker Wang went straight to Zhen's house after leaving the gate. I suspect that she came to help Zhen's family secure matchmaking."

On that day, although the private matchmaker did not reveal the name of the host's son-in-law, most of them mentioned the identity of the host's family. However, Matchmaker Wang did not explain why the matchmaker came.

Of course Jiang Shuyue understood why the others did not invite the official media. It could only be that someone got there first.

After hearing from the concierge that Matchmaker Wang had gone to Zhen Mansion, she had some vague suspicions in her mind.

Qiu Ju blinked, "Miss, could it be that Matchmaker Wang is really here to protect the real master? If I remember correctly, the real master should be two or three years younger than the miss."

Jiang Shuyue secretly thought that she had done something wrong.

Her eyes flickered: "It's hard to talk about this. Maybe there are other young masters in the Zhen family. I won't mention this matter again. From now on, keep a distance from the Zhen family and don't get too close to avoid misunderstanding."

After saying that, he spat at Xiao Jingzhao in his heart, it was all that guy's fault.

If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have gone out of my way to get close to my real family. This misunderstanding would make future meetings more embarrassing.

As expected, Suisui stayed in the palace for one more night before being sent back.

Princess Changle came with her baggage.

"Sister Jiang, do you mind if I come again?" Changle found the kitchen familiarly.

"Princess Jin An."

When the cooks saw Chang Le appearing at the door, they all put down their work and saluted her and said hello.

Chang Le smiled at everyone and said, "No courtesy."

Jiang Shuyue was teaching the cook to bake mooncakes in the kitchen at this time. The newly built baking stove was built according to the style of a pastry shop.

In this era, there were no ovens, so Jiang Shuyue was surprised that she understood the principles of baking.

This principle may have been brought by the time-traveling senior, but it was impossible to verify it after so many years. Jiang Shuyue was already very happy to be able to eat the delicious mooncakes.

"Why would I mind? Jiang Mansion welcomes Chang Le to play at any time."

Jiang Shuyue made the mooncakes and put them down and looked at Changle. The little tail behind her didn't follow her. When she returned home, Shu Moxuan must have gone to find Sunan.

Changle saw that the mooncakes made by Jiang Shuyue were more exquisite than those of the imperial chef. He couldn't help but swallowed: "Sister Jiang, this pastry looks delicious. If you put some flower petals in it and bite it in one bite, it will taste delicious."

Jiang Shuyue knew as soon as she heard that Chang Le was a senior foodie like her.

She smiled and nodded, "There are peanut and pine cone fillings, osmanthus fillings, and ham fillings."

What makes her regretful is that she is too busy on weekdays to teach the cook how to make salted duck eggs.

Thinking of the mooncakes filled with egg yolk, she became greedy.

Chang Le smiled like a greedy cat with his phoenix eyes, smacked his lips and said, "Fortunately I didn't listen to my second brother and stay in the palace for the festival, otherwise I would have missed the delicious food cooked by Sister Jiang today."

The cooks watched Jiang Shuyue's demonstration, and one of the cooks suggested, "Miss, the kitchen is very smoky. You and the princess can go to the flower hall to rest. My maid can do it."

Jiang Shuyue stepped aside and said, "Come and try it. It's very simple. You can decide the baking time by yourselves. Start with a small amount of trial baking."

The kitchen took a dough, wrapped the filling, and pressed it into shape. It was done in one go, and it was no different from what Jiang Shuyue did.

"Not bad, let's do it this way." Jiang Shuyue said, went to wash her hands, and pulled Changle out.

Changle thought making mooncakes was fun, so she wanted to try it too. Thinking of her mother's instructions, she immediately stopped thinking.

It's okay to stay in Jiang's house for a few days, but don't make trouble. This is what her mother told her before leaving the palace.

In order to gain her mother's trust, she has been studying the rules seriously these days, and even Aunt Cai has praised her several times.

When she came to the flower hall, she saw seven or eight palace maids waiting outside.

"Greetings, young lady."

When the palace maids saw Changle and Jiang Shuyue coming over, they all bowed and saluted.

"Miss, what do you think we should do?" Qiuju heard the palace maids outside greet her, and she came out of the flower hall and pointed inside.

"What should I do?" Jiang Shuyue walked into the flower hall.

The table in the flower hall was piled with gift boxes and cloth.

Changle followed closely behind, smiling and pulling Jiang Shuyue to the table.

"This is Yuehua brocade and Guxiang satin, which are just right for autumn clothes."

She touched the other pieces of cloth, "This is snow satin and Zhangrong. Mother said that the winter in the capital is very cold, and these are very warm for winter clothes."

"The Queen Mother is very thoughtful. When Changle returns to the palace, please thank the Queen Mother for me." Being treated gently, Jiang Shuyue felt a warm current in her heart.

Changle smiled and said, "My mother said, no need to thank me. When Sister Jiang is free, come to the palace and sit for a while. My mother will be very happy."

Jiang Shuyue's eyes moved to an exquisite box, "What is this?"
