Long Linxiao, An Yi, subordinates are

Go find someone to find out why this old lady is causing trouble again. Find out who gave her the idea. An Yi took the order and left.

Siyu entered the house and became more and more angry the more she thought about it. She slipped into the space and looked at her large medicinal fields, spiritual spring water, and the food that filled the space. She finally felt a little better. She had no choice but to go to the pharmacy to pick up the medical book and continue reading.

Long Yi took Old Lady Li to the county government office. He wanted to let her know that there are some things that cannot be done and some people that cannot be offended.

At Second Aunt's house. Yijing, mother has already chosen an auspicious date and will hold your engagement party on the 18th of this month.

Hu Yijing

Mother, Ling'er and I have already made an agreement that we will get engaged after I pass the imperial examination.

Second Aunt was angry.

You idiot, what nonsense are you talking about? You let the girl live in our house without any status or position, so you, idiot, won't lose anything. But doesn't the girl want a reputation? You idiot. What's the point of reading?

Hu Yijing

Mother, how could I not care about Ling'er's reputation? It is because I care that I want to pass the imperial examination and get engaged, so that Ling'er can have a higher status.

Second Aunt, Serious Face

Jing'er! When it comes to being a person and doing things! You must first learn to be a person, then do things. You must know that a girl's reputation is more important than anything else, and that is what they guard their whole lives. Since you love her, you must protect her, pamper her, and protect her well. Don't let her be criticized, and don't use your one-sided feeling that it is for her good. In fact, you are harming her. You forget the perspectives and gossips of people in this secular world. They can kill people without being seen. Mom has no education, but she also knows that before doing anything, you must consider the consequences first, and then do it. You! Think about it!

Hu Yijing watched his mother leave, wondering if he had really made a mistake and not considered things comprehensively, so he stood up and went to find his mother. "Mom, I know I haven't been thoughtful enough. I will follow your arrangements regarding the engagement."

The sky was clear, insects chirped, birds sang, and frogs croaked—a beautiful pastoral scene. Then there was a knock at the door. "Sister-in-law, uncle, it's Zhenli. Open the door! I'm here to tell you the good news."

The servant opened the door and said, "Second aunt is back." "Please come in, please come in."

What was Siyu doing at this time? It was too hot to eat. The old master kept complaining about the heat and the lack of appetite, so Siyu remembered the modern summertime favorite: cold noodles. So, Siyu was washing her face!

Master, still arguing with Siyu, said, "You little girl, why did you soak the noodles with water? Aren't you being cheap?"

Stinky old man, you're not hot anymore. You've been talking too much, so your mouth isn't dry anymore! Just wait for the delicious food! When it's ready, it'll definitely make your tongue fall apart.

The master turned his head away proudly, curling his lips. "I've eaten everything, but you're the only one showing off."

White peony root

Miss, you tell me what to do, and I'll do it.

Thinking of Rain

Shao! This time, just watch and knead the dough in a basin first. Then follow my lead. We're all going to eat this today.

White peony root

Okay, miss, I will do it right away.

The master and servant kneaded the dough, washed it, and waited for the water to settle. Then they asked Lady Qu to light the fire. In those days, stainless steel plates were unavailable, only iron was available, so Siyu used an iron plate. The water in the pot boiled, and the flour water was poured onto the iron plate. After it sat in the pot for a while, a sheet of cold skin emerged. This process was repeated repeatedly. Bai Shao, having learned the technique, took over Siyu's work and continued. In less than an hour, all the cold skin was ready. The gluten was then steamed in the water from the pot.

Thinking of Rain

Okay! I'll go make the sauce, Baizhi will get some cucumbers and wash them, then mince some garlic, wash some cilantro, and some green onions.

Li Si went to the vegetable garden and picked some peppers. Speaking of peppers, there is a little episode. Siyu picked the peppers from the mountain and said she would save the seeds to plant next year.

My younger sister Ayu,

Wow, sister, what delicious food did you get for us.

My little brother, Ayu, Ahuan, oh, is this a red fruit?

Sister, what delicious food? The little ones looked at the bright red peppers and thought they looked pretty. They thought they were delicious fruits, so they took a bite and ended up crying from the spiciness.

My little sister cried loudly, "Sister, you are so bad. I will ignore you."

The younger brother looked at Siyu with a resentful look, tears in his eyes. "Sister, you are a bad guy. Humph, I will ignore you."

Mother and father also took the opportunity to give her a good lecture. You are such a naughty girl.

At this time, Second Aunt brought Yiqiu, Yiqin, Yiyang, Yijing, and Linglan. Hey, what are they doing? They all gathered in the kitchen.

Siyu and her brothers bowed and said, "Hello, Second Aunt. Please come in."

Maids and servants, greet you and say hello, aunt.

Mother said that Zhenli is back.

Grandpa said, Erya, you're back, come in quickly.

Grandpa continued

Yu Yatou made some delicious food today. If you have anything to say, let’s talk after we eat.

Second Aunt replied, "Okay, okay, thank you, Second Uncle, sister-in-law." Tears welled up in Second Aunt's eyes. She had grown up, now in her thirties, and when she went back to her parents' home before, her mother would only ask how much she had brought and whether she had any money. She never cared whether she had eaten. Now, someone finally cared.

Linglan, seeing that no one was paying attention, pulled her cousin to a place where no one was around. "Cousin, I'm getting engaged."

Long Linxiao said excitedly, What? Does my aunt know about such a big thing?

Linglan, cousin, I don't know how to tell Dad and Mom. Besides, someone lured me away from the capital. I don't know if that person will attack me again if I go back. Cousin, please help me!

Long Linxiao, last time I asked you to go back with Eunuch Hu, but you refused. I guess by now, your aunt and uncle have received your letter.

Indeed, at this time, the princess and her husband had already received the letter. "Yu'er, come quickly, come quickly, there is news about Ling'er." At this time, a hurried figure ran into the yard. The eldest princess heard the voice and came out of the house, "Ze Ge, what did you say?"

Ouyang Qianze called out, "Yu'er, hurry, hurry, hurry. I just received a letter from Eunuch Hu. There's news about Ling'er. She's been rescued. This girl refused to come back, saying that the person who rescued her was injured and she wanted to stay and take care of her savior. They saved Ling'er. Should we go and see? We don't know who kidnapped Ling'er. Now that she's been rescued, we should go and thank the person who saved our daughter."

When the princess heard that her daughter finally had news, she finally felt relieved after all these days of worry. She couldn't help crying out loud, "My Ling'er! She's suffering! Who is so wicked? He's just a teenage girl, who has offended her? He actually wants to sell her off." Ouyang Qianze hugged his wife distressedly and coaxed her, "Okay, don't cry, Yue'er, we will see her soon. She's our daughter. Let's go see her together."

Ouyang Haoxuan ran in from outside and asked, "Did my parents have any news about my younger sister?"

Ouyang Qianze looked up at his son and nodded. "Yes, we just got the news too. How did you know?"

Ouyang Haoxuan said, I was at my uncle's place, and I heard what Eunuch Hu said, so I rushed back. Should we go and bring my sister back?
