Remarry 9,000 Years Old
Chapter 75 Swearing without using curse words
The surroundings suddenly fell silent, with only intermittent moans coming from the small Buddhist temple, making the already awkward atmosphere even more awkward.
When Shen Nanqiao saw Ning Su remained silent, his heart skipped a beat.
This palace is a filthy melting pot. The palace maids are at the lowest level and their lives are already hard, so naturally they hope to find someone to accompany them.
Ning Su was born with a refined appearance and held great power. Even if he was a so-called rootless person, I'm afraid many palace maids would throw themselves into his arms.
And seeing how hesitant he is, could it be that...
"Do you... have a lover, too?"
Shen Nanqiao's brilliant move seemed to nail Ning Su to the spot. His expression seemed to roll across a palette before he slowly spoke.
"What gossip have you heard before?"
Shen Nanqiao shook his head.
"I noticed that even someone as good-looking as Lian Suitang has someone who likes him, so someone like you must be very popular."
Ning Su was so amused by her words, which he didn't know whether to praise or criticize, that he couldn't help but reply.
"No matter how delicious the cake is, it will belong to you, right?"
Shen Nanqiao nodded, looking righteous.
"That's true, but I have to know whether this bite of food I eat is taken from someone else's mouth!"
The lower half of Ning Su's face was shrouded in the shadow of the cloak. With the help of this cover, he smiled softly.
It has been more than a month since the marriage, and the girl only realized it belatedly and asked if she had a boyfriend.
"What would you do if there was someone before me?"
Shen Nanqiao's head was buzzing. Could this thing actually come true? Originally, he just asked casually because he had a sudden inspiration.
But it makes sense when you think about it.
He is so handsome, and he has a different charm every time you see him. On a snowy day like now, his jade-like face is shrouded in a black cloak, and he has a rare frail beauty.
She can see this kind of beauty that is known to everyone, and others can see it too.
"I don't believe it." Although she didn't have enough energy, she refuted word by word, "With your personality, if there really is someone in front of you, you will never agree to marry me before you have dealt with everything."
Ning Su raised his eyebrows.
"How long have you known me? How do you know I'm not greedy?"
"I just know it!" Shen Nanqiao responded firmly, "You are not that kind of person."
During the time they spent together in their previous life, he seldom even glanced at the maids who served him, so how could he possibly have a beautiful woman in his house?
Even if we take a step back and say that he had lied because of love, he probably only kept it a secret until his death that he loved her.
Thinking of this, she became a little uncertain again.
"What if you are wrong?" Ning Su looked at her calmly, "Everyone in the world has two faces."
Shen Nanqiao interrupted decisively.
"So do you have it or not?"
As they were talking, they had already reached a place sheltered from the wind, and the heat on Shen Nanqiao's face seemed to dissipate a little.
She looked up, waiting for an answer.
Ning Su did not answer but asked instead.
"First, answer, if it is true, what should we do?"
Shen Nanqiao didn't think about this matter seriously at first. She thought that eunuchs and palace maids pairing up was just about talking and holding hands.
Today's scene really gave her a big shock. It turned out that they could do the same things as ordinary couples.
She couldn't imagine how Ning Su would react if he had such an intimate relationship with someone.
That person might be a palace maid, or even a concubine!
However, there was a voice deep in my heart saying: Don't be nervous, he may be testing you.
Shen Nanqiao straightened her back. Yes, she was now the legitimate Madam Ning. What was there to be nervous about?
"Since you married me, you have nothing to do with her anymore. I will generously give her some wedding candy." The little girl looked up with the arrogance of a wife. "It's not like you've been through a lot before, and it's not worth mentioning."
Ning Su nodded, neither saying yes nor no.
He walked forward, shielding her from the wind and snow.
Shen Nanqiao was a little anxious and jogged after him.
"I've answered, why don't you say anything?"
Ning Su stood in front of her, shielding her from the wind and snow tightly, and answered leisurely.
"I didn't say I have to tell you if you answer me."
This was a bit shameless, but she could do nothing about it and could only follow behind and sulk.
The two of them walked all the way to the Qianqing Palace.
Emperor Ming had not yet recovered from his cold, and he had just taken medicine and fallen asleep, so no one dared to disturb him.
Seeing this, Ning Su simply took Shen Nanqiao to the duty room in the southwest corner.
During these years in the palace, he mostly stayed here.
Outside was the place where the Imperial Household Department worked. Inside there was a small compartment with a table and a bed. He mostly handled official business here and went straight to bed after closing the door at night.
But most of the time, he had to stay by the emperor's side in case he was summoned.
Shen Nanqiao had never been to such a place in his past or present lives. Shen Mingde was a jealous moralist, so he never took his children to the Ministry of Rites.
This was the first time she had seen a man on duty.
In the eyes of the lady, it was so simple that it was a bit pitiful. Outsiders always talked about how luxurious life was in Ningsu, but it turned out that most of the time they had to live in such a place, and their lives were not even as comfortable as those of ordinary people.
The eunuchs were all very busy, and when they saw the wife of the seal holder coming, they hurriedly brought the fumigation basket and the heater, and also brewed the best scented tea.
Someone over there informed the Shangshenjian, and the person in charge hurriedly sent some fruits and snacks.
"What do you want to eat?" Ning Su sat down behind the desk and casually took out two books from a pile of books and flipped through them. "Just ask them to make it."
The steward of the Imperial Kitchen was a very capable person, and he immediately responded upon hearing this.
"What the ancestors said is right. Madam, just order whatever you want to eat. Milk skin crisps, lotus cakes, and golden thread cakes. These snacks are all freshly made and I guarantee they will be warm in your mouth."
Shen Nanqiao was summoned to the palace early in the morning and was indeed hungry at this moment. When she saw the steward, old memories were triggered in her heart.
It was said in the previous life that this Shangshenjian was promoted by the previous seal holder, so he pretended to obey Ning Su but secretly tampered with his food.
Although he didn't dare to poison it, he always used some not-so-fresh ingredients to pass off as good ones, and thought Ning Su couldn't taste the difference.
After the new emperor came to power, the latter man was sent to do hard labor.
Thinking of this, she smiled meaningfully at the chef in charge.
"Don't worry, if it's not too much trouble, just send two bowls of shredded chicken noodle soup."
The manager's expression paused. He didn't expect that the wife of the factory official was such an expert.
Although this noodle can be made, it is troublesome. One can tell at a glance whether it is freshly prepared. Could it be that she knows about the little things I do in private?
No, given Ning Su's vengeful personality, if he could tell the difference, he would have been punished long ago.
Maybe it's just a coincidence.
He bent over and smiled cautiously.
"This will take some time. I'm afraid Madam will be anxious waiting. The kitchen has some excellent chicken noodle soup. Can I have someone send two bowls?"
Shen Nanqiao stood up slowly.
"No problem, I'll borrow your small kitchen and I'll cook it myself."
The person in charge was stunned.
The noodles need to be rolled into a ball one by one, which is somewhat like the cold noodles with locust leaves, but they need to be topped with hot soup. It is not only difficult to make but also tests the chef's skills.
How dare a girl of sixteen or seventeen like this boast?
Ning Su also raised his head when he heard this.
"Why bother making it yourself when the kitchen can just make something ready-made?"
Shen Nanqiao turned around and smiled sweetly.
"You don't usually have the chance to eat good food, so I'll show you my cooking skills and satisfy your stomach."

Manager: It feels like you are making a veiled criticism of someone else. I don’t know if it’s an illusion.
