The princess relies on the cat to get the upper hand + special episode

So she smiled and looked towards the direction of the wall, wondering which family's bastard it was——

as predicted.

"Star."

Zhou Xiantong yelled helplessly.

The fat boy was really stunned, and he gave up lifting his feet after a long time, and dragged himself between the cracks of the wall, turned his head and called her with difficulty: "Auntie."

Zhou Xiantong asked him with a smile: "What is Xing'er going to do? If you are captured by His Highness's guards, you will be spanked."

Hearing this, the little fat man felt a little nervous, he couldn't do bad things openly in front of his elders anymore, so he said with a mournful face that he was just greedy for a while and wanted to eat good things made by his sister, not to offend His Highness.

In the end, it was Zhou Xiantong's maid who helped him down from the wall.

Zhou Xiantong patted his head with a smile, and said, "I only know that there is a young man with good craftsmanship in your highness's courtyard, but I haven't heard that there is a maid who is good at cooking by your highness, who can make you so greedy." .”

Hearing what she said, the little fat man suddenly raised his hand to cover his mouth.

It was his reaction every time he was caught lying, or said something he shouldn't have said inadvertently.

Seeing him covering his mouth, Zhou Xiantong's smile turned helpless: "What's the matter? Is there any secret that I can't tell my aunt?"

The little fat man looked very troubled.

What Brother Chen told them was that Sister Ning's status is inconvenient in the past, and it's not easy to show her in women's clothes, so she always wears men's clothes, but they want them to treat her like a sister and act like a baby to her.

only……

Brother Chen explained it on purpose, and they are not allowed to tell the elders about this matter for the time being.

The little fat man hesitated, not knowing how long this would be.

He thought that his aunt was nice to him on weekdays, so let's share this little secret with his aunt for now, so she probably won't tell it, right?

The little fat man didn't know that the most important person he wanted to hide was Zhou Xiantong. He remembered how his aunt had always cared for him. After a long while, he firmly nodded his head, and then whispered:

"Brother Chen doesn't allow me to tell about this matter, I will tell my aunt quietly, and my aunt will also keep it a secret for me."

"The handsome young gentleman in the prince's brother's house is actually a little lady."

"Brother Chen asked us to regard her as a sister in our hearts."

Zhou Xiantong was stunned.

What is Huang Xing going to do?

Although the fact that Mr. Le Xiaolang turned out to be a little lady surprised her a little, but considering the virtues of craftsmen accepting apprentices nowadays, Zhou Xiantong could indeed guess the reason why Le Ning was disguised as a man.

only--

What does this have to do with Duke Lu's Mansion?

What are Huang Xing and the others thinking, how can they make their brothers and sisters treat them like elder sisters?

Could it be...

Chen'er fell in love with him?

A strange feeling flashed across his mind, but it flashed so fast that Zhou Xiantong didn't have time to catch it, and in the end only this thought remained in his mind.

She shook her head, raised her hand to gently pinch the young fat man's cheek, and said with a smile: "Okay, Auntie will keep it a secret for you, but Xing'er will not do such a dangerous thing next time, if you let your mother Got it, take care of your little butt."

The little fat man nodded, and left stiffly with his butt stretched out, as if he had foreseen his miserable end when he secretly turned over the prince's brother's wall and was discovered by A Niang.

……

evening.

Le Ning deliberately packed a table of big meals, and sure enough, he saw Huang Xing coming over to eat and drink again, but this time there were no such half-sized boys around him.

He and Lu Wanzhen sent someone to Zhou Xiantong's courtyard as they did in the daytime, and then sat there waiting for Le Ning to make food.

Now it is the end of summer, the heat is still there, but it is a little weak at night, and it will be a good time to eat crabs in a few days.

Le Ning plans to get some sweet-scented osmanthus wine and drunk crabs, which should sell well. Today she just saw small crabs in the river in the small kitchen, so she decided to practice her skills with these small crabs first.

soon--

Dishes flowed from the kitchen like water.

The palm-sized crabs are divided into two or three sections, and they are fried to a ripe orange-red color. Each crab is lying on the plate with its teeth and claws open, with long sections of shallots and large slices of ginger, and the shell is still stained with bright red chili sauce.

Flip it a few times with chopsticks, and you can vaguely see some seasoned dry chili inside. Together with this chili sauce, it melts into multiple layers of spiciness, which can effectively dispel the coldness on the crab.

Le Ning walked out with the maidservant, holding a towel to wipe her hands, and said to the maidservant next to Huang Xing who was holding a food box with vegetables:

"Don't add spicy crabs. I think Mrs. Zhou is not in good health. Although this dish has spicy taste to drive away the cold, the crabs are always raw and cold, so it's better not to eat them."

"I've been bored with the yellow bean stewed pig's trotters next to it all afternoon, but it's overcooked now, so I can send it to my wife to try."

Huang Xing moved the dishes in front of him with his chopsticks, and smiled at her:

"If you have a heart, Madam will appreciate it."

Le Ning also returned a smile, then sat down beside Lu Wanzhen naturally, and asked the two of them, "How does it taste?"

Lu Wanzhen struggled to find a piece of lean meat in the pig's trotter, and put it in his mouth. He tasted the long-simmered juice overflowing from the lean meat. The meat was not sticky or hard, but it was easily peeled off between the teeth, and he couldn't help squinting his eyes. :

"good."

she praised.

Le Ning can see how picky she is. People who eat too much meat are like this. Unless it is braised pork, Dongpo pork, etc., the fatty meat is boiled to the point of melting in the mouth, otherwise they will eat more meat on weekdays. Definitely lean.
