Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
County Magistrate Shen was immersed in grief and indignation. He answered immediately, “Little Girl Ning said that she would make sponge cake for me.” It was another term that he had never heard before. The Emperor carried the hoe and said, “Bring more.”
County Magistrate Shen:… Would he dare to refuse?
However, after a while, the Emperor frowned again. “Can Xiao Ran and Gu
Chang’an bear to let her cook?”
County Magistrate Shen was confused. “What does Little Girl Ning’s cooking have to do with General Xiao and his wife?”
The Emperor looked at County Magistrate Shen for a long time. Judging from County Magistrate Shen’s honest look, he thought that this guy really didn’t know. “Dear Official Xiao told me something today…”
When he returned to Shen Residence, County Magistrate Shen’s footsteps were light.
Little Girl Ning was General Xiao’s daughter?!
He pushed open the door. “Father! Big Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother!
Big news, big news!”
Xiaoxiao suddenly met her parents and only remembered to send a message to Shen Residence after dinner. The content of the message was concise, but clear enough. It was only at this moment that Premier Shen and his family believed that County Magistrate Shen was not muddled in the palace.
The Shen Family was immersed in this unbelievable fact and did not sleep well at night. Unlike them, Xiaoxiao opened her eyes early in the morning and felt that she should do something.
She thought that she didn’t care much about the Host’s background, but that wasn’t the case. She couldn’t wait to return 120% of the kindness that others treated her well. Moreover, Xiao Ran and Gu Chang’an were really to her liking, especially after she heard the maidservants talk about the bowls and chopsticks that they never forgot at home.
Hence, she found Yun San and Eighteen and ran back to the Shen Residence. County Magistrate Shen was dragged up by Premier Shen and his brothers who were going to court early in the morning. Before he was fully awake, he sniffed twice. “Am I still dreaming? Why do I feel that I smell Little Girl Ning’s cooking?”
Premier Shen was also very surprised. It was not that he was humble, but he felt that his chef did not have such skills.
The group of people looked towards the kitchen. Oh my god, what kind of good stuff was this table full of?
Xiaoxiao scratched her head in embarrassment. “Good morning, Sirs. I wanted to make some snacks just now, but I accidentally made too much. Have you eaten?”
They haven’t eaten! Of course they haven’t eaten! They wished they hadn’t eaten last night!
They had long heard Youngest Child/Little Brother show off his good fortune.
Today, they finally had a chance to put it into practice.
“Is this the Cloud Cake that Little Brother was talking about? Drink, it’s really as soft and white as the clouds. Is this made of cow milk? Why doesn’t it smell fishy at all?”
“This is Taro Cake Roll, right? The color is so beautiful. I can’t bear to eat it.”
“If you can’t bear it, give it to me!”
“Dream on, ahhh! It’s in my mouth. Hahaha, it’s so delicious!”
Hearing the Shen Family’s cheers and praises, Xiaoxiao packed some of everything with a red face. Her parents would like them too, right?
County Magistrate Shen was happy for Xiaoxiao too.
Such a good girl now had a good background. This way, her future with the Third Prince would be guaranteed. Aiya, wait. Was the Third Prince still worthy of her now?
With such a question, County Magistrate Shen filled his big food box with every snack, which was strongly criticized by the whole family. He said calmly, It s hard to disobey the emperor’s order.”
He was asking for a beating.
They wanted to ask Little Girl Ning about her background, but seeing that she was in a hurry to go back and that it was not easy for the couple who missed her, they did not stop her.
Premier Shen even specially sent her to the door. After thinking about it, he still said to Xiaoxiao, “With your mother’s temper, she probably won’t tell you some things.”
“Back then, she discovered she was pregnant with you on the battlefield. However, she had the emperor’s orders and her country was on her shoulders. Great Xia was filled with internal and external troubles and dangers, so she had no choice but to gallop on the battlefield with a pregnant body. After defeating the Gobi Barbarians, she gave birth to you on the battlefield.
“At that time, she was already seriously injured, but she gritted her teeth and returned to the capital because she was worried that you wouldn’t be taken good care of in the Gobi. Who knew…
“in order to look for you, she disregarded her leg injury and forced herself until she fainted. She almost died. Even if she saved her life, her leg was unable to be treated because it was delayed for too long. She hasn’t been able to walk smoothly since then.”
Premier Shen sighed. “There are very few people I admire in my life. General Xiao is one of them.” contemporary romance
He patted his left leg. “She has an arrow tip in here. When she returned to the Imperial Capital, it had already grown into her flesh and bones. She couldn’t take it out. People often say that it’s as painful as being twisted by a knife, but to her, she’s really being twisted by a knife every time she walks.”
Xiaoxiao’s heart was shocked and painful.
Xiao Ran and Gu Chang’an basically didn’t sleep. They were afraid that when they woke up, they would realize that everything today was just a dream. Hence, the two of them barely rested for a moment when it was almost dawn. They suddenly woke up and went straight to Xiaoxiao’s room.
They pushed open the door. It was clean and empty.
Was it all fake?
“Masters, Miss said that she’s going to the Shen Residence to get some things. She’ll be back soon.”
The maidservant said, “By the way, Miss also asked the residence not to prepare breakfast.”
The two of them felt their hearts finally fall back into their throats. They looked at each other and found it funny again.
They were already so old, but they were still so impatient.
After washing up, they appeared at the door together.
Gu Chang’an coughed lightly. “The weather is very good today. Is Madam planning to take a walk too?”
Xiao Ran nodded vigorously. “Yes, yes, yes. Okay, okay, okay. Let’s go.”
This silly look was like a different person from the one who had proposed with the red tassel spear.
Hence, when Xiaoxiao carried the food box back to the General’s Residence, she saw two familiar figures circling back and forth on the mam road.
She took a deep breath. “Father! Mother! I’m back!”
These words were like a curse that soothed the wounds in Gu Chang’an and Xiao Ran’s hearts for many years and comforted their uncontrollable uneasiness.
“Sigh! It’s good that you’re back.”
Yes, it was good that she was back.
As long as their daughter returned safely, the suffering over the years was not important.
It did not seem difficult to call them “Father” and “Mother” after the first formal greeting. Indeed, everything was new to her. In less than 10 minutes, Xiaoxiao could already very naturally pass food to Gu Chang’an and Xiao Ran while introducing them.
“Mother, this is Cloud Cake. I call these white soft ones cream. Try them!” “Father, this is a biscuit. It’s crispy and delicious. It’s filled with the fragrance of milk I added jam here. It’s sandwiched. Try it?”
“The Taro Cake Roll is made of taro. For the sake of color and texture, I added a little purple sweet potato. Oh, the purple sweet potato is similar to a red sweet potato, but the color is different. I found it in Dayan Mountain.” “Father, Mother, I’ve bought a mountain on Dayan Mountain and planted many fruit trees. When they bear fruit, I’ll make wine for you, okay?”
Gu Chang’an and Xiao Ran’s smiles never stopped. They looked at their obedient and cute daughter, who had no estrangement from them at all. Then, they felt the and delicious snacks in their mouths and felt that this was what life wanted..
