Quickly wear a child: a beautiful woman with many children brings happiness

Three days passed by in a hurry.

Early in the morning, Yun Yuan and Ji Huai went to Huai Shang Restaurant.

Due to word of mouth from those present that day, even though it was not dinner time, the Huai Shang Restaurant was still crowded with people and all seats were occupied.

Everyone was eagerly waiting for the competition to begin with great enthusiasm and anticipation.

In order to make it easier to work, Yun Yuan wore a Xiangfei-colored dress with narrow sleeves and a slanting collar. The light-colored jade belt outlined her slender waist. Her silky black hair was combed into a bun, revealing her slender white neck.

The noisy voices in the restaurant quieted down the moment she appeared. Everyone's eyes were unconsciously attracted to her and they could not look away for a long time.

Yan Xiaoman almost broke her teeth.

She had dressed up specially today so as not to be too different from Yun Yuan. The apricot-yellow dress looked delicate and cute on her, but it was far inferior to Yun Yuan.

She thought bitterly, those who knew about it thought she was participating in a cooking competition, but those who didn’t thought about it thought she was participating in a beauty pageant. Everyone was mesmerized by Yun Yuan’s beauty, so who would vote for her?

Yan Xiaoman was angry and wanted to complain to Ji Shen beside him, but she found that he was also looking at Yun Yuan, and she was immediately furious.

It would be fine if it was someone else, but Ji Shen was his husband, and she worked so hard to support him in school, so how could he set his eyes on another woman?

She smiled wryly: "Husband, do you also think Yun Yuan is pretty?"

Ji Shen woke up as if from a dream and looked away awkwardly, "Not as pretty as my wife."

He said this, but his classmates' words unconsciously echoed in his mind.

[I heard that you rejected Yun Yuan's courtship. What were you thinking?! She is such a beautiful lady! If it were me, I would not even marry her. If she wanted to kill me, I would just stretch out my neck for her to chop off.]

Ji Shen didn't know what he was thinking. At that time, he just felt that Yan Xiaoman was perfect. There was a voice that kept telling him that he should be with Yan Xiaoman, pamper her and protect her, but this voice suddenly disappeared three days ago.

He used to look down on other women, as if there was an invisible barrier in his eyes that prevented him from looking at them.

However, in the past three days, the fog that obscured his vision gradually dissipated, and some different thoughts and ideas began to emerge in his mind.

He began to re-examine the women around him and found that they had many charms and characteristics that he had never noticed before.

The headmaster's granddaughter is beautiful and intelligent, his classmate's younger sister is a pretty girl...even Lin Yi's married sister, he thinks she is mature and charming.

But all of these were nothing compared to Yun Yuan. Not only did his classmates not understand, even he himself did not understand.

He was unusually confused and couldn't help showing a bit of guilt in front of Yan Xiaoman.

Yan Xiaoman was disappointed. She didn't want to depend on a man, but that was the general environment in ancient times. She could make money, but men had a natural advantage in improving their social status. They could achieve success through hard work. But what could she do as a woman?

No matter how much money she makes from business, she is still at the bottom of society. That is why there were so many wealthy people in ancient times who donated money to support education, and one of their purposes was to find a backer.

She wants to cooperate with Ji Shen for mutual benefit, but now Yan Xiaoman is a little uncertain. Who can guarantee that Ji Shen is not the next Chen Shimei?

Yun Yuan didn’t know that there was a rift in the relationship between the male and female protagonists, and she wouldn’t care even if there was.

She immediately saw Mu Xingzhi standing in the front row. He was wearing a white robe today. Unlike his usual elegant attire, he looked even more aloof today, as if he was above the world.

However, when his eyes fell on Yun Yuan, that coldness disappeared without a trace in an instant.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint smile with tenderness and doting. Both his elegant demeanor and gentle temperament were unforgettable.

Yun Yuan nodded at him, and a sad look flashed in Ji Huai's eyes. Compared with Mu Xingzhi, who had a good family background and was well-educated, he might only be able to please her with his physique.

The manager of Huai Shang Restaurant looked at Ji Huai calmly, and when he saw him nod silently, he announced the start of the competition.

To ensure fairness, the steward pulled up the kitchen curtain and let everyone in to take a look.

After making sure that there was nothing else except ingredients, firewood, salt, water and basic kitchen utensils, Yun Yuan and Yan Xiaoman were allowed to bring their respective spices and each choose a kitchen to go in.

Yan Xiaoman unceremoniously chose a large kitchen, while Yun Yuan nonchalantly entered a small kitchen.

Be it Ji Huai or Mu Xingzhi, neither of them showed the slightest distrust or worry about Yun Yuan on their faces. They found a seat closest to Yun Yuan's kitchen and sat down, quietly waiting for Yun Yuan to come out.

Braised meat takes a long time to prepare, and Huai Shang Restaurant has prepared storytelling and opera for everyone to enjoy.

"...The following is what happened far away in the capital. After twenty years of searching for her son, Princess Su finally got her wish. It turns out that it is related to Qingcheng."

The audience pricked up their ears and said, "Hurry up and tell us, don't keep us in suspense."

"As everyone knows, Prince Su is the younger brother of the current emperor. He played an important role in the process of your majesty ascending the throne. Even now, Prince Su still commands 200,000 troops and is your majesty's right-hand man.

Twenty years ago, it was the most intense and critical moment when the struggle for succession was at its most intense and various forces were constantly fighting. During the Xuanwu Palace Incident, the Fifth Prince was scheming and ruthless. He even took the second son of Prince Su as a hostage, trying to force Prince Su to stand on his side.

Prince Su was forced to pretend to be nice to the Fifth Prince while secretly supporting his elder brother.

After the Xuanwu Palace Coup, although Prince Su successfully eliminated the traitors, the Second Young Master disappeared without a trace and no news was heard from him. Everyone thought that the Second Young Master had become an innocent victim of the coup, but twenty years later, there were only a few people left who knew the Second Young Master's characteristics, and the Second Young Master was actually found! "

Mu Xingzhi showed no interest at all, as if he had heard about this matter before, and didn't even bat an eyelid.

The spectators were puzzled: "What does the finding of the second son of Prince Su's Mansion have to do with Qingcheng?"

"Don't even mention that the Second Young Master has ended up in our Qingcheng..."

"Don't worry, sir. Let me tell you slowly." The storyteller patted the memorial paper unhurriedly, then slowly said: "Prince Su agreed to the Fifth Prince's request to abdicate, but changed sides at the critical moment. He did not leave his bloodline alone, but secretly called for assassins to rescue it.

The scene was in chaos and the soldiers suffered heavy casualties. The last soldier tried his best to save the second young master, but was also hunted down by the enemy.

Seeing that the assassin was seriously injured and was about to collapse, he accidentally met a woman who was being robbed of money by bandits while fleeing.

This warrior killed the bandit and entrusted the second son to the woman, asking her to raise him for a period of time and promising to return within a month to take the second son away.
