The mistress is not a cannon fodder, the cold prince falls in love with her every night

"What a rubbish rule!"

Willow catkins and willow eyebrows stand upside down.

As a modern-day woman with a higher education, if she doesn't start a career, will she be restricted and trapped in this backyard?

"Get out of the way! I have something important to do today, don't delay me!"

After saying that, he pushed Hong Xiao away and went out.

Hong Xiao returned to the Marquis' wife angrily and told her about Liu Xu's incident with exaggeration.

The Marquis's wife slammed the table and said, "She's rebelling!"

Aunt Qian fanned the flames and said:

"Madam, it's fine that this Liu was nameless and without status in the past, but now that she's here, she should abide by the rules. If she behaves so rudely and causes any embarrassing problems in the future, wouldn't that bring shame to the Marquisate and the Third Young Master?"

The jade comb in the Marquis's wife's hand creaked.

"Before, when she was away from home, I couldn't do anything to her. Now, in this mansion, am I going to let her do whatever she wants? Ma'am Qian, pick a few teaching maids and teach her the rules of conduct! Let her understand clearly what the rules of being a concubine are!"

……

Liu Xu was busy outside all day and dragged her tired body back to Lan Courtyard. Seeing Pei Yan playing with birds under the corridor, she was a little unhappy and said:

"Pei Lang, the shop is going to open tomorrow, why aren't you paying any attention to it?"

Pei Yan held her in his arms and said lovingly:

"You manage everything in the shop so perfectly, why do you need me? Xu'er, please don't overwork yourself."

Pei Yan's gentle words really pleased Liu Xu.

She smiled, and her fatigue was relieved.

"Pei Lang, summer is just around the corner, and the demand for cold drinks will soon peak. Our shop is opening at the perfect time. I've calculated that we can make back our investment in just one summer. Once we do, I'll start opening another shop. I've already decided on the beauty and cosmetics business, as women's money is the easiest to earn..."

Seeing Liu Xu talking about business, Pei Yan's eyes turned and said:

"Xu'er, do you remember what you once told me about the many powerful weapons? For example, sniper rifles that can kill enemies a thousand meters away with a single pull of the trigger, and mortars and submachine guns..."

Three years ago, when Pei Yan was injured, Liu Xu said while taking care of him that if such a war happened in her hometown, it would be resolved in three to five minutes.

Her hometown not only has powerful weapons, but also advanced combat concepts and special forces!

Seeing Pei Yan's impatience, Liu Xu burst out laughing.

"Pei Lang, how could you possibly make those things with your level of productivity? Besides, how can a little girl like me do the arms business? Let's talk about the beauty shop. Besides the beauty shop, we can also open a restaurant or a teahouse..."

Pei Yan was not interested in beauty shops, restaurants, and teahouses, and said:

"Can't do it? Why? What conditions are needed?"

Liu Xu laughed and said, "What conditions? First of all, the metal smelting technology is not up to standard, not to mention the precision component processing, gunpowder ratio, and craftsmanship. There are too many conditions."

Pei Yan became depressed when he heard this.

Unexpectedly, Willow Catkins continued:

"With your productivity, you can only make some simplified versions."

Simple version?

Pei Yan's eyes lit up. If those things were really as powerful as Liu Xu said, then the simplified version should also be quite lethal.

Besides, Prince Jing has never seen it before.

He can get away with anything.

"How do I make the simple version?" he asked impatiently.

"Pei Lang, what's wrong today? Why are you talking about this? This is munitions, too far away from us. I will never be able to touch it in my lifetime."

As she spoke, Liu Xu had already unpacked her clothes and was looking for them one by one in front of the mirror.

"Pei Lang, we're opening tomorrow. What do you think I should wear? Summer is almost here, and I've been so busy I haven't had time to make any clothes yet. Also, we have to start preparing for our wedding. When I'm done with this, I'll go to the tailor shop..."

As he was speaking, Lu'e came in and said:

"Sir, Madam Qian is here. She's brought four disciplinary madams with her."

While speaking, he secretly glanced at the catkins.

"Please come in, Madam."

Nanny Qian brought four maids to pay their respects to Pei Yan.

"Sir, these are the four disciplinary maids specially selected by Madam. They said that starting today, they will come to Ningxiang Pavilion to teach Madam Liu the rules."

Upon hearing this, Liu Xu frowned and said:

"I don't need it."

Aunt Qian continued:

"That's not up to you, my lady. Since you want to enter my mansion, you must learn the rules and regulations. Otherwise, if you make mistakes in the future, you will lose more than just your own face."

Pei Yan also said:

"Mother lets you study for your own good."

When Liu Xu heard Pei Yan say this, she calmed down.

Although she hated the rules of the mansion, Pei Yan was going to inherit the title in the future, and she would be in charge of the huge mansion and would have to deal with people when she went out. In her opinion, these were all bad rules that she really had to learn.

"Since Pei Lang has said so, then let's learn. However, we have to wait until after tomorrow. I'm busy in the shop tomorrow, so let's do it the day after tomorrow. I'll be back early the next evening and can spare half an hour for you to explain it to me."

"..."

Nanny Qian curled her lips.

This lowly concubine learns the rules and chooses her own time?

It was really embarrassing for her.

……

It has been sunny for several days and the weather is getting warmer day by day.

Su Li suffers from summer heat, and loses her appetite when the weather gets hot. Seeing Xi Jie'er also feeling depressed, she thought for a moment and said:

"Songzhi, is there any ice in your house?"

"some."

"Go get me a bucket and I'll make you something delicious."

On such a hot day, a bowl of smoothie is the most pleasant thing.

Su Li was busy in the small kitchen for half a day and prepared more than a dozen bowls of smoothies, which were topped with various fruits. They looked good and tasted good.

In Qingshan Courtyard, everyone got a bowl.

"Mother, this is so delicious. Can Xijie eat a bowl every day?"

Xijie'er has big, bright eyes.

"Of course you can. But you can only eat one bowl a day, otherwise you will get a stomachache."

The mute slave held the bowl of ice, and Aba Aba was extremely excited.

Pei Heng sat in a wheelchair, watching everyone eat with his eyes wide open, his mouth almost watering.

"Didn't I?"

Su Li said apologetically:

"Sir, you are weak, so don't eat this cold food for now. Later, when you are better, I will make it for you myself."

"Well, you said it yourself! I want to have one bowl a day, just like Xijie'er."

"well!"

Su Li's eyes curved with laughter.

Pei Heng is in better and better spirits, and he even starts to act coquettishly and make jokes!

"But you should also eat less."

Pei Heng said suddenly.

"why?"

"Because..." Pei Heng swallowed the words back when they came to his lips.

Whenever Su Li started having small bowels, she would roll around in pain on the bed and lay there for three or four days, barely breathing. I'm afraid it was because she loved to eat ice.

"In short, you should eat less. Also, I'll have Doctor Fei prescribe some warming and nourishing medicine for you to recuperate."

Pei Heng said with some doting.

Su Li realized that he must have noticed how half-dead she looked in the past few days.

It feels so good to suddenly be cared about by someone!

Blushing, she said, "I understand."

But knowing is one thing, doing is another.

Who can resist the temptation of delicious smoothies?

Song Tao ran back excitedly and shouted as soon as he entered the door:

"Miss, Miss, there's a commotion over at Ningxiang Pavilion!"
