Slowly Deep Love

Nanny Li skillfully cooks and makes noodles, and a burst of delicious aroma fills the air.

"What did you make? It smells so good!"

Nanny Li continued to pull noodles and didn't want to pay attention to the voice.

Chunxue was surprised. Mrs. Lin always looked delicate and dainty. Although she came from a restaurant, she was very proud and would never set foot in a kitchen where there was a lot of oil and smoke.

Is she cooking for the eldest master today, or is she here because of Madam Ming's scent?

After a brief greeting, Haruyuki went back to counting the dishes.

"Madam Li, such a simple dish is so fragrant. You are worthy of being brought by Sister Ming." Lin Yuan walked towards Madam Li as soon as he entered the room.

Madam Li said as she went downstairs, "The people around the young lady are all skilled and capable, so of course they are proficient in everything."

"You are not modest at all!"

"Mrs. Lin praised me, so I am of course extremely honored. How could I tell you that I did not do well? I will make a fool of myself!"

"Hmph!" Lin Yuan snorted and walked around the stove, looking at this and that, and said to Madam Li, "Madam, you've worked so hard, but Sister Ming only lets you eat this! There's no meat at all."

"I am old and can no longer eat meat and fish, but these vegetarian dishes are very pleasing to my taste."

She stretched out her hand and fanned her nose, saying, "My nose is choking, and the kitchen is filled with smoke. I'm going back."

Lin Yuan turned and left, but Nanny Li was no longer calm. She looked calm, but she was actually paying attention to the pair of earrings.

She couldn't help but think of Robert, the little boy at the door, and the two rude men in the shop.

Chunxue stared at Lin Yuan's back until she walked out the door and disappeared.

She noticed that Madam Li was a little absent-minded, so she walked over and greeted her softly, "Madam Li, Miss Lin relies on the favor of the eldest master to show off everywhere, especially treating Madam Ming as a thorn in her side. It's really hateful!"

Nanny Li realized her own gaffe and quickly picked up the dough and started kneading it. After a while, a pot of slippery noodles was cooked.

She scooped a bowl and brought it to Haruyuki, saying, "Haruyuki, try my cooking."

Chunxue was delighted and thanked him profusely. She took the bowl and took a big bite, praising him repeatedly: "Madame Li, it's really delicious. No wonder Madam Ming likes it so much! You should also have a bowl and eat it while it's hot."

Nanny Li picked up a bowl of rice and started eating with Chunxue. Finally, she filled two large bowls, put them in a food box and took them away. These were for Changle and Qianyue.

Before she left, she asked Chunxue for a handful of fresh vegetables, intending to give Yue Weiwei a snack in the evening.

Yue Weiwei saw the plaque of Xinyao Pavilion and said to Changle, "Go back and have some noodles! Those noodles are a gift from me, don't let them down! Xinyao Pavilion and Qingxiang Pavilion are close, I can go back by myself."

Changle was worried and wanted to stay with her, but he couldn't resist Yue Weiwei's enthusiasm, so he left.

When she walked into Xinyao Pavilion, Li Hengying immediately took out the painting and showed it to her.

This is a landscape painting. Apart from saying it is "beautiful and meaningful", she doesn't really appreciate it.

So I listened quietly to Li Hengying talking about her understanding and praise of the painting.

When I understood something, I nodded. When I didn’t understand something, I didn’t pretend to understand it, but listened more carefully.

"Third sister, you must have a lot of famous paintings in your collection!"

"I don't collect paintings by famous people, and this one is not a work by a famous person."

"Whose work is this?"

"Mr. Li!"

Yue Weiwei suddenly felt awe in Li Hengtu. The nobles of this era were truly proficient in everything from music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.

She suddenly had an inspiration and wanted to design a hairpin for Li Hengying, so she borrowed paper and pen and started painting.

Fine workmanship produces meticulous results. When a hairpin appeared on the paper, Li Hengying clapped her hands in applause!

Yue Weiwei looked at her work, her heart as clear as the sky.

Just as she was immersed in this beauty, an inconspicuous maid came from Qingxiang Pavilion, in a hurry, and Qianyin led her hurriedly towards the pavilion.

"Madam Ming, it's bad. Nanny Li, Changle, and Qian Yue are having diarrhea and their legs are almost going limp." The girl said anxiously.

When Yue Weiwei heard this, her originally sunny mood immediately became cloudy, and she quickly said goodbye and returned to Qingxiang Pavilion.

Seeing Nanny Li and the other two taking turns to use the toilet, Yue Weiwei was filled with rage.

Something went wrong while cooking in the kitchen today!

She watched the doctor take her pulse and prescribe medicine. After settling everything in Qingxiang Pavilion, she brought a servant to the kitchen.

Only then did she realize that Haruyuki also had diarrhea and couldn't get out of bed, so she immediately asked someone to take her to see Haruyuki.

Chunxue was lying sickly on the bed, his face pale. When he saw Yue Weiwei, he struggled to get up.

She hurried over, gently held Chunxue down, let her lie down, and asked, "Have you called a doctor?"

Haruyuki shook his head weakly and whispered, "I took a dose of anti-diarrhea medicine."

Yue Weiwei quickly asked the servant who was accompanying her to call for a doctor.

"It's so strange. Everyone who ate the noodles today has diarrhea. Nanny Li and the other three are also suffering." Yue Weiwei's face was solemn and she was extremely angry.

"Mrs. Ming had just left not long ago when Miss Lin arrived."

"She's here!" Yue Weiwei was shocked and suddenly remembered that Nanny Li said that Lin Yuan's father ran a restaurant.

"She goes to cook for the eldest son?"

"She thinks she's precious, why would she go into the kitchen? This is her first time here."

Yue Weiwei was silent. Lin Yuan came for her. It was she who gave him the laxative and harmed him.

"I planned so much, but I didn't expect that I wouldn't get to eat that bowl of noodles. Heng Ying really came as a timely help and saved my life." Yue Weiwei was anxious and angry, and felt restless.

"Madam Ming, the mansion has been arranging matters regarding Qingyuan Temple, and Madam Lin is desperate!" Just as she finished speaking, Chunxue felt a sharp pain in her stomach, and she struggled to get up and go to the toilet.

Yue Weiwei helped her out of the door and happened to meet a maid. Chunxue stopped her and said to Yue Weiwei, "Mrs. Ming, you don't have to go."

After a while, the doctor came in without stopping. After taking her pulse, he said to Yue Weiwei, "This maid's symptoms are similar to those of Madam Li and the others. She accidentally took a laxative. She needs to take good care of herself in the next few days, otherwise her stomach will be damaged!"

Yue Weiwei felt distressed when she heard this. She comforted Chunxue and said, "This unexpected disaster was caused by me. I will send a maid to take care of you. Just take care of your health. I will go find the housekeeper Uncle Wang and ask him to find someone to buy for you first."

Haruyuki looked at her with tears in his eyes, choking with sobs and unable to speak. She took out a handkerchief to wipe Haruyuki's tears and said, "If you feel sad, just cry it out. Don't hold it in."

"Madam Ming..." Chunxue grabbed her hand and cried.

"I will come to see you often. You should have a good rest. I have things to do and cannot be delayed." She patted Chunxue's hand, stood up and left.

Chunxue's eyes were filled with tears as she looked at Yue Weiwei's back, feeling the strong affection and warmth.

After her mother was beaten to death, she was heartbroken and only wanted revenge. The luxurious emotion of family affection had been isolated from her for several years, but today the sparks of it were ignited again deep in her heart.
