Rebirth is not a dream.

Ding Xiang was always full of resentment when she went to get breakfast these days, because the food was getting worse day by day. Look, what was delivered this morning was just a bowl of bland, clear porridge, with a few cold steamed buns! Ding Xiang became more and more angry, and felt that she couldn't bear it any longer, so she ran straight to the kitchen with a rage, intending to find the nanny to have a good argument.

She rushed into the kitchen and was about to yell, but suddenly she noticed that the maids were busy preparing meals for other masters in the mansion. Especially when she saw the dazzling array of exquisite pastries and delicious dishes on the table, her anger was instantly ignited, and she felt even more unfair: Don’t people in Yunxiao Court deserve to have good meals? Why are we treated differently?

Thinking of this, Dingxiang decided not to remain silent anymore and must find an explanation for the young lady.

Ding Xiang walked straight to the front of the maid, and said in a voice with a hint of anger, "Why is the food in our Yunxiao Courtyard getting worse and worse?" The maid glanced at her, and without stopping her hand movements, she replied indifferently, "The expenses of the mansion have been high recently, so I have to inconvenience you masters."

Ding Xiang was even more annoyed when she heard this, "High expenses? I think someone is deliberately mistreating us! We are both masters of the mansion, why is there such a big difference?"

The nanny stopped what she was doing, stood up and looked at Ding Xiang, "The masters all have fixed amounts of money, so the allowances for the Marquis' wife and the young master are naturally more detailed."

"You are too bullying!" Ding Xiang glared at the nanny fiercely. Ding Xiang was good at cooking, but she was not good at quarreling, so she could only turn around and leave. The nanny looked at her back, with a barely perceptible smile on her lips.

After returning to Yunxiao Courtyard, Dingxiang walked in quickly with a food box and said to Taozi angrily, "The people in the kitchen are really too much! The quality of the food is getting worse day by day. If it continues like this, how can the young lady eat it?" As she spoke, she put the food box on the table and opened the lid. The food inside looked unappetizing. Dingxiang became angrier and angrier, and continued to complain, "The dishes delivered today were simply perfunctory, and they were not cooked with care at all. It's disgusting to look at. I really don't know how they do things!"

Taozi frowned and expressed her concern after hearing Dingxiang's words. She knew that the young lady was very particular about her diet, and if she ate such bad food for a long time, her health would definitely be affected. So the two decided to go to the person in charge of kitchen affairs to argue, hoping to improve this situation.

Just as they reached the door, Su Yue stepped in. Seeing the two of them with angry faces, looking like they were looking for someone to settle a score, she couldn't help but ask curiously: "Where are you going? Why are you all so angry?"

Taozi was always outspoken and was the first to answer, "It's all because of those people in the kitchen! The food they deliver every day is simply inedible, it's really too much! I'm just about to go find Madam Li to argue with her."

Su Yue was confused and asked, "Who is Nanny Li?"

Taozi replied unhappily, "She is the kitchen manager!"

Su Yue nodded thoughtfully and continued to ask: "Can finding her really solve the problem?"

Ding Xiang at the side interrupted: "I have looked for it several times before, but it was of no use."

Su Yue frowned and said, "But how can such a small matter alarm the Marquis' wife? You just need to record the diet of other masters every day and carefully check what they eat, whether it is provided by the public office or purchased by individuals. As long as you find out all these situations clearly, it will be fine."

Seeing the angry faces of the people in front of him, Su Yue shook her head helplessly and continued to persuade: "Why get so angry? If the food tastes good, just enjoy it. If it is really hard to swallow, you can just find a proper place to store it."

After hearing Su Yue's suggestion, Dingxiang and Taozi looked at each other and felt that it made some sense.

"But how can we know the dietary situation in other courtyards?" Taozi asked puzzledly.

"Isn't this simple?" Su Yue smiled. "You can ask some familiar maids or women. Or, while the food is being delivered, pay attention to the dishes in other courtyards."

Ding Xiang nodded, "Yes, this method is feasible. Let's go and ask around."

"Wait." Su Yue stopped them, "Don't forget, be careful and don't let anyone find out. Otherwise, you might get into trouble."

Dingxiang and Taozi agreed and turned to leave. Su Yue looked at their backs and couldn't help but sigh. The fight in this deep courtyard is really endless.
