C68 Medicinal Porridge

On the second day, Jiang Chen arrived at Mu Yuting's courtyard early in the morning, and helped her prepare dinner as promised. In this small courtyard, a sweet fragrance wafted out very quickly.

"What is sister cooking?" Mu Yu Ting watched Jiang Chen's every move out of curiosity. Seeing how skilled she was, it seemed that she had gone to the kitchen quite a few times in the past. "It smells so good. I'm sure the Grand Master would like it."

"This is medicinal porridge. The Emperor is old after all, so he should eat more of this to nourish his body." Although Jiang Chen explained, his hand movements didn't slow down at all. She saw Mu Yuting following by her side the whole time, and frowned without leaving a trace. "Sister, the kitchen is too hot. You should leave first."

Mu Yuting pretended to be enthusiastic. "Do you need me to help you, sister?"

Jiang Chen felt a bit panicked in his heart. If Mu Yuting really was always by his side, watching every move of hers, then what chance did she have to make a move? She didn't want to be a free worker.

"No need elder sister, just leaving your sister here is enough." Jiang Chen looked at her and forced a smile, "It'll be fine if elder sister waits outside. When the medicinal porridge is ready, I'll send it over."

A trace of understanding flashed in Mu Qiuting's eyes, and the smile on her face turned slightly colder. Jiang Chenbi couldn't hold it in anymore. She only said a few words and was already in a hurry to chase him away.

If he said that she didn't have any distracting thoughts in her heart, Mu Qiushan wouldn't believe him.

"Elder sister, what are you doing here? You rarely go to the kitchen, so you're not familiar with the smell of smoke in the kitchen. Be careful not to choke on it." When Jiang Chen saw Mu Lutang still standing there, smiling without saying a word, he became even more anxious.

"Since little sister has already said so, then I'll have to trouble little sister." Mu Yu Ting's tone was filled with gratitude, as if she had complete trust in Jiang Chen.

This wasn't the best time to point out Jiang Chen's plan. She wanted to keep this fox tail buried for a while longer.

Mu Yu Ting obediently walked out of the kitchen and helped her close the door. She even raised her voice, "Miss Jiang is currently helping the Emperor prepare the medicinal food. You people are not allowed to get close to the kitchen. Do you know?"

When the Blue Luan heard Mu Qiusheng's words, it seemed somewhat stupefied. It drew closer to her and whispered, "Miss, who are you talking to? There's obviously no one here. "

"You little girl, why are you getting more and more foolish?" Mu Yu Ting knocked on her forehead. "Other than the people outside, there are others who are listening."

The Blue Luan was stunned for a moment, but quickly recovered. So Mu Yuting had purposely told Jiang Chen to lower her guard.

Mu Yu Ting slowly walked away from the kitchen. The bright smile on her face gradually disappeared without a trace. A cold light appeared in the depths of her eyes as she called out softly, "Blue Luan."

"Miss, do you have any instructions?" The Blue Luan silently followed behind Mu Yuting and quickly advanced.

"Go and invite the mama over from the Grand Lord's side."

The Blue Luan's brows slightly furrowed, and its small face showed some hesitation. Scratching its head, it said, "Miss, Senior Servant Su is a popular person by the side of the Grand Lord. If I don't have an excuse, how am I supposed to invite her? I think it would arouse the Grand Lord's suspicions."

Mu Yuting was slightly surprised, but she quickly replied, "Just say that I've got some good tea leaves. I want to invite her to try them and see if they suit the taste of the Grand Monarch."

The Grand Master wanted to like drinking tea, but he was particularly interested in tea leaves. As an old servant by her side, it was only natural for Senior Servant Wan to understand her habits. Using this reason to ask her was indeed reasonable.

"Yes, does Miss have any other instructions?"

"Before you leave, remember to find a reliable maid and keep an eye on Jiang Chen Bi." "No matter what she does, she must report it to me truthfully."

Mu Yu Ting's beautiful eyes narrowed. Rather than letting her spend so much time and effort to guard against Jiang Chen, it would be better for her to take the initiative and invite her to do something.

When the Blue Luan had invited Nightmare Jade over, Mu Yuting was sitting in the courtyard, tasting tea: "Miss, a grandma is here."

Mu Yu Ting nodded and hastily put down her teacup to welcome them. After all, she was the old mama by the Grand Lord's side. Even though she was a young miss, she still had to be courteous to them. "I'll have to trouble you to make a trip here."

Nightfall shook her head and looked gently at Mu Qiantang. "Miss, what are you saying? I was lucky to have received Miss's invitation."

Mu Yu Ting pulled Night Jade to a stone bench in the courtyard and sat her down. Then, she ordered the little girl to make some tea for her.

"I wonder what Miss is cooking that smells so good?" In the small kitchen, the smell of fireworks permeated Mu Qiuting's courtyard. Nightfall looked towards Blue Luan and smiled, "But Miss, are you hungry?"

"Why does Mammy say that?"

"The kitchens in each of the courtyards are all prepared by the masters for their own use. If the young miss is greedy and wants something to eat, you can go and tell the matriarch about it. For a young lady like you, you don't have to make your own fire. "

After all, Mu Qiuting was still young, so it was common for her to be greedy for a moment.

"Momo, what you said might not be a bad thing, but how could I possibly have the face to trouble you with everything you said?" Mu Yu Ting felt an indescribable warmth towards Night Jade, "I'm not such a dissatisfied person."

"Miss is filial indeed." Hearing Mu Qiusheng's words, Night Jade nodded her head in approval. "But Miss doesn't need to worry about so many things. You are the Grand Lord's granddaughter, and the Grand Lord loves you so much. Naturally, he wants to give you the best."

Mu Yu Ting's heart skipped a beat as the image of the emperor appeared in her mind. Her voice contained a hint of gratitude, "To be able to obtain the love and affection of the emperor in this life is the greatest blessing I've gained in my previous life."

"Aunt Ye, you've misunderstood the Miss." "The Blue Luan smiled and spoke, as it adjusted the atmosphere." It is Miss Jiang who works in the kitchenette. "

Night Jade was startled, and looked at Mu Yuting inquiringly, "Miss Jiang? "I wonder what's going on …"

She had watched Jiang Chen grow up, and although Jiang Chen was gentle and amiable, it didn't seem like she would do such a thing, coming to someone else's kitchen to cook early in the morning.

"Yes, Miss Jiang is actually doing this for the sake of the Emperor. "She wants to make medicinal food for the Grand Emperor and properly mend her body." The Blue Luan nodded. Its face was full of praise, as if it was moved by Jiang Chen's actions.

Night Jade was even more surprised, "If Miss Jiang wants to make medicinal food for the Emperor, then why did you come to his kitchen? "I remember that there's a kitchen in the Brook Pavilion. In the past, the delicacies that she brought to Matriarch He were all cooked there. Why did she change the place this time around?"

"Momo, it's not like you don't know about the matter of the Grand Lord getting angry at Miss Jiang a few days ago. Although the Grand Lord has forgiven her, he might still have some lingering feelings in his heart."

"Miss Jiang is afraid that the Grand Master will not drink because he knows that it's her doing, so she asked you to help her carry it over later."
