Plane Trading: A Peasant Girl Escapes from Famine and Becomes Rich Enough of a Nation

"alright."

In this case, she had nothing to complain about. She should just wash up, eat, take a rest, and then go out shopping.

The meal was so sumptuous that Su Qiuyi was very satisfied with the meal.

There was just one thing, she felt uncomfortable with four little girls standing behind her. She was eating alone with several little girls standing behind her. Although she knew that this was nothing in ancient times, under the influence of modern thinking, she still felt a little uncomfortable.

Although she didn't like having people around her, she didn't ask anyone to leave.

After dinner, I had a comfortable sleep. When I woke up, it was dark.

"Miss Su, are you awake? I will help you get up and wash up."

She had just stood up and stretched when the maid outside spoke immediately.

"Okay, come in!"

Su Qiuyi then remembered that he was now in Chu Mingxiao's house.

Then I thought of Chu Mingxiao's confession last night, and I couldn't help but smile.

"Miss Su, do you want to get up and wash up?"

The little maid stood beside the bed and said it again. Only then did Su Qiuyi realize that he had not noticed someone standing next to him.

"Just leave it there, I'll wash it myself."

The maidservant obediently placed the copper basin on the washbasin rack, then turned and left.

Su Qiuyi quickly got up, washed, and then combed her hair.

Not long after, several maids came in with dinner, followed by Lingyu.

"Miss Su, have you rested well? Please tell me if there is anything you are not used to."

As she spoke, she had already walked to Su Qiuyi and helped him walk towards the table.

"Nothing is unusual, everything is fine."

Su Qiuyi calmly accepted Lingyu's service.

Even if she wasn't used to it and didn't want to talk about it, saying too much would make her seem pretentious. Besides, she was just a normal servant serving her master, so she had to adapt to it.

"What about him?"

Sitting at the table, Su Qiuyi asked casually.

Ling Yu naturally knew who Su Qiuyi was talking about, and quickly replied, "Young Master will be back later."

"understood."

She nodded without asking any more questions, nor did she pull Lingyu to sit down and eat with her.

When she was almost done eating, footsteps were heard at the door.

Su Qiuyi looked up and saw Chu Mingxiao appear at the door.

The maid outside the door did not greet or say anything.

Su Qiuyi knew that it was probably because he came back secretly, so no one in the mansion dared to make it public.

Why do I feel a little guilty all of a sudden?

"Have you rested well?" Chu Mingxiao walked up to the little girl and saw that she looked fine. He looked at the dishes on the table and asked, "Do you like the food?"

He told the cook in the mansion about the little girl's taste, but he didn't know if the little girl's taste had changed after not seeing her for so long.

"I'm fine. I've slept for most of the day and have rested well. Have you eaten? Do you want to..."

Su Qiuyi wanted to ask if they wanted to eat together, but when she saw that she had only eaten half of her meal, she stopped talking.

He is the prince, not the same Chu Huai anymore. How could he eat her leftovers?

Chu Mingxiao did not have this awareness. He pulled Su Qiuyi to sit down, asked someone to bring bowls and chopsticks, and started eating directly with the dishes.

"Um... I've already eaten this..."

Su Qiuyi spoke a little embarrassedly.

"So what? It's not like you haven't eaten before! Are you full? Eat more! This is all made according to your taste!"

Su Qiuyi was surprised for a moment. "My taste?"

She herself doesn't know what her taste is. She has never been picky about food, and her childhood experience has not allowed her to be picky about food.

Chu Mingxiao looked at Su Qiuyi without saying anything.

Su Qiuyi looked over and found that the dishes on the table were indeed all those she had eaten before. There were a few that she had not eaten before. She looked over and Chu Mingxiao quickly said, "Those dishes are specialties of the capital. You should try them."

A warm feeling passed through Su Qiuyi's heart. It was the first time she felt someone was so considerate to her.

Someone actually noticed her eating habits.

Maybe this may seem like nothing to others, but for a girl who grew up in a family that favors boys over girls and has never been truly cared for and protected, this is a new experience.

Besides, it feels so good, this feeling of being cared for.

"Well, you eat too..."

"By the way, has the general's poison been cured?"

Su Qiuyi had almost finished eating. He hadn't had the chance to ask before, but now that Lingyu was the only one left in the room, he asked.

Chu Mingxiao picked up a piece of eight-treasure duck and put it on Su Qiuyi's plate, then nodded, "It's gone, there are no more symptoms."

Su Qiuyi nodded, lowered his head and slowly ate the food on his plate without saying anything else.

Before in Qinghe Town, the two of them didn't get along so well. They talked a lot and would bicker with each other, but now...

Su Qiuyi also noticed this problem. She found topics to talk about and tried to adapt herself to the current relationship as quickly as possible.

After the two chatted for a while, they finally found their previous way of getting along with each other and were no longer shy.

“Spiritual Rain!”

Chu Mingxiao called Ling Yu who was standing aside and enthusiastically supporting the couple.

"Here!" Ling Yu was startled by the sudden roll call and spoke reflexively. Her voice was so loud that it scared Su Qiuyi.

"Go call Lingxue!" Chu Mingxiao saw that the little girl was startled, and glared at Lingyu coldly. Lingyu was so scared that she ran away quickly.

After a while, Lingyu called the person Chu Mingxiao asked to call.

"Sir!"

Ling Xue, who was brought in by Ling Yu, had no expression on her face. She saluted Chu Mingxiao coldly with her fists clasped, then stood aside.

Su Qiuyi looked at Ling Xue who was standing there with a cold and expressionless face, and praised her in his heart.

An icy beauty, not only has a cold personality, but also a face as handsome as a sculpture.

Yes, it’s the word handsome.

Lingxue looks like a girl only by her dress and hairstyle. If she wore men's clothes, she would definitely be more manly than any man.

Su Qiuyi's loud and aggressive gaze made Ling Xue frown, but she just frowned without raising her head, let alone asking why Chu Mingxiao asked her to come.

"Lingyu, Lingxue, from now on you two will serve Yiyi closely! I will give your indentures to Yiyi!"

Chu Mingxiao had obviously adapted to Lingxue's cold personality and didn't waste any words.

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

Su Qiuyi didn't expect that Lingyu and Lingxue had no intention of refutation when they heard this, and agreed directly.

She knew that Lingxue had known for a long time that she wanted to follow her, and she should have been mentally prepared. What about Lingxue?

Do you really have no opinion at all? Wouldn't you feel uncomfortable if your master gave you away so easily?

So, after the two of them left, Su Qiuyi couldn't help but ask.

Chu Mingxiao's smile revealed a deep meaning. Under Su Qiuyi's curious gaze, he slowly spoke.

"There are only two female guards around me. They are specially prepared for my future prince's consort. They have always known about it! So, what opinions can they have?"

The meaning is obvious. These two people have long known that their master is the future Crown Prince's consort. Now they are just recognizing their master. There is no such thing as being given away by the master.
