Zhao Ce's expression did not soften at all, and his thin lips were as red as blood, and he gently raised his lips: "Do you remember that they are the maids rewarded by your father and mother?"
The servant lowered his head: "Back to your lord, yes."
Every time the prince smiles like this, it means someone is going to be in trouble.
"Since you are a maid, what can you do if you don't work?"
The servant immediately understood: "I will go and ask the housekeeper to arrange work for them."
Zhao Ce looked at him approvingly, this one was actually smarter than the last one.
"No hurry, what else did they say?"
The servant thought carefully: "Miss Yunzhu said that Miss Su ate too much, and said... Your Majesty, you like thin women. I'm afraid that Miss Su will fall out of favor."
The last sentence was not said by Yunzhu, but was guessed by the servant based on the situation at that time.
Zhao Ce sneered: "Why don't I know that I like slim women?"
The servant lowered his head. This girl Yunzhu was probably going to be in bad luck.
It was extremely quiet in the study.
The servant breathed very softly and did not dare to make any unnecessary noise.
Zhao Ce suddenly said: "Since they have said so, wouldn't it be very unkind for me not to meet their demands?"
"Go ahead. From today on, the regular dishes in the backyard will be reduced by half, and the daily meals will be changed from three meals to two. I like thinner women, and I hope they can live up to my expectations."
The servant hurriedly said: "Yes."
The prince didn't even remember their names and just referred to them as "those in the backyard". He couldn't tell whether it was more ridiculous or more deplorable.
Three meals were changed to two meals, and the regular dishes for each meal were reduced by half. In addition to the work they would have to do in the future, they were miserable.
It's not good to offend anyone. If you have to offend that person, you will hit the wall now.
…
The fire in the cellar gradually died down.
After opening the cellar, hot air came out of it. Su Lingyu used a hook to pull out the simple cake basin. In an instant, the sweet smell spread freely in the yard.
"It smells so good." Su Yaozu couldn't wait to get closer, "Sister, give me a taste."
Su Lingyu slapped him away: "Don't touch my cake with dirty hands."
When Mrs. Wang saw this, she went over to defend her younger son: "What are you doing? Can't you just talk to me if you have something to say? Who dares to marry a girl who touches her in the future?"
Su Yaozu curled his lips and said: "That's right, poverty is important."
"Then I won't marry."
Su Lingyu glared at Su Yaozu: "Do you still want to eat my cake?"
"……think."
"Why don't you go wash your hands quickly?"
Su Yaozu swallowed, forced his eyes away from the cake, and walked over to wash his hands dejectedly.
Brother Su and his sister-in-law took their nephew and squeezed over after washing their hands.
Su Lingyu's sister-in-law, Mrs. Li, stared at the things in the iron basin with bright eyes: "Is this the cake?"
Su Lingyu picked up the iron basin with a cloth lining, turned it upside down on the chopping board, and knocked it hard. Soon, a complete semicircular cake embryo was peeled off.
The sister-in-law quickly tore off a piece with her hands, blew on it, and stuffed it into her son's mouth: "Little treasure, try it quickly."
Su Lingyu was about to cut it, but when she looked at the irregular gap, she lost her mood, so she simply picked off a piece and threw it into her mouth.
Not bad, it tastes very similar to what I remember.
The conditions are simple and it is impossible to restore it one to one. It is very good to be like a 78-year-old.
"Let me try it too." Su Yaozu grabbed a piece while his hands were still wet and stuffed it into his mouth, "It's delicious!"
The little guy in Sister-in-law Su’s arms also clapped her hands: “It’s delicious!”
The Su family has never tasted such fine food. You took one bite and I quickly finished the cake and gave it unanimous praise.
Su Lingyu couldn't help but feel proud. Of course, it didn't matter who made it. Such a soft and sweet cake embryo, even without butter, is still very popular in the 21st century, let alone ancient times with poor living conditions.
"Sister, do you want to take this to set up a stall tomorrow?"
Su Lingyu shook his head: "I won't set up a stall."
She wants to cooperate directly with the pastry shop in the town. She will supply the goods, the pastry shop will sell the goods, and the money will be divided proportionally.
But in this case, the reputation belongs to the pastry shop.
It's not that she hasn't thought about selling it herself, but that would be too slow. If she wanted to rent a shop, she had to get money as soon as possible.
Moreover, Su Lingyu does not plan to make a fortune by selling cakes. She is a food blogger. The food she cooks most is not desserts, but various special dishes.
Su Lingyu's greater wish is to open her own restaurant in the capital.
The capital was the core area of the Daqing Dynasty. There were many dignitaries and nobles. Having experienced the prosperity of the 21st century, Su Lingyu was not willing to stay in a backward small village. She also looked down on the county and capital cities. She had to go to the most prosperous place.
There was another reason. Su Lingyu felt that there must be something in the capital that attracted her.
She will definitely pass within a year at most.
…
Not long after Su Yu entered the palace, everyone in the palace once again felt the prince's favor for her.
Didn’t you see that even the people sent by the emperor and the empress were sent to do odd jobs because of her?
After lying dead in the house for several days, Su Yu finally gave up.
Chunmei suggested: "Girl, the weather is nice today, how about we go for a walk in the garden?"
Su Yu had no objection. It was not where she was going.
When she arrived at the garden, she finally knew why Chunmei brought her here.
Sitting in the pavilion, Su Yu took a sip of tea and looked at the woman sweeping the floor with a broom in the corridor. Who else could it be if it wasn't Xiangzhu who came to cause trouble a few days ago?
We haven’t seen each other for a few days, why are you so miserable?
Chunmei seemed to know her question and took the initiative to explain: "I heard that Miss Xiangzhu was punished by the prince to clean the garden, and Miss Tongyue was sent to the stable to feed the horses. The worst one is Miss Yunzhu, now While washing clothes in the laundry room, several other girls were sent to various corners. The prince is clearly venting his anger on you."
Su Yu drank the tea in one gulp, raised her chin slightly, and said matter-of-factly: "I am Zhao Ce's savior, of course he will vent his anger on me."
When she heard Zhao Ce's name, Chunmei turned pale with fright: "Girl, the prince's name is not something you can call casually."
"He asked me to call him that."
"Now and then, you didn't know the prince's identity when you first rescued him, right?"
Su Yu nodded, that's true.
Chunmei said sincerely: "The prince was willing to let you call him by his name in the first place, because he definitely didn't want to expose his identity. Now that he has arrived in the capital, there is no such scruple. It's better for the girl to be more cautious."
Su Yu felt a headache when she heard this: "Why do you people here have so many twists and turns?"
Chunmei could only smile apologetically: "This slave is for the good of the girl. You see, even the people your majesty gave to the prince were sent to sweep the floor if they made the prince unhappy, let alone the girl."
Xiangzhu in the corridor was shaking with anger.
It was true that a tiger was bullied by a dog, how could an ordinary maid dare to laugh at her?
