Chapter 928: Treated like a bandit-

When Old Master Shi heard the suggestion of his friend, he agreed inwardly. He indeed did not have enough money to buy these vegetables to his liking, now with his daughters standing outside wishing to join the al which he cooked, he was sure that he could easily get them to agree to any sort of wishes that he wanted to, after all, his cooking skills were better than the chef of the house!

As Old Master Shi agreed to let his great-grandchildren enter his courtyard, the lonely courts which was filled with gloom for many years finally lit up with laughter and joy.

For the first ti after so many years, Old Master Shi could finally say that his new year was one of the best.

….

On the other hand, Qiao Nan returned to his house and headed straight to the small kitchen which he built after getting poisoned. He ignored the dull faces of the servants who were looking at him with a despondent look on their faces and headed inside the small kitchen.

He knew the reason these servants were acting as such was because they were once again ignored by his wife who failed to hand them the new year money. Though 'failed' was not the right term, it was right to say that she deliberately skipped them over since she no longer had any affection for him and his courtyard.

" Master, are we not going to call madam this year as well?" When Qiao Nan entered the small kitchen, his personal servant Li Lin ca looking for him as he took the bag which Qiao Nan was holding in his hands and then headed towards the stove and then placed it on the platform. " I an, everyone else has invited madam to dinner —— if we don't then."

" Lin'er, you think that just because I send an invitation my wife will co looking for ?" Qiao Nan calmly washed his hands with cold water which was kept in the vat and then turned to wipe his hands with a clean rag before turning to look at his personal servant. " I am no longer the sa person and neither she is, don't raise your hope… even if I were to go and kneel in front of her, she would not co looking for ."

When Li Lin heard Qiao Nan's words, he felt both sorry and angry at his master. He could not understand why his master wouldn't go and check up on his wife even after so many years have passed and at the sa ti, he felt sorry for his master since he was abandoned at the pri of his age.

" But…" he wanted to say sothing more to his master but seeing Qiao Nan glare at him, Li Lin did not say anything and then turned to wash the vegetables.

Li Lin continued to wash the vegetables while Qiao Nan started to dice the garlic with a long knife. No sooner did he chop the garlic up, a startling yet delectable scent flew out of the chopped-up garlic, usually Li Lin hated garlic the most as it slled but this garlic slled extrely fresh which stirred his appetite and he gulped before asking, " Master …just like always…we all will get a share right?"

" Of course, these past few years you all have been by my side for so long…how can I not treat you on New Year?" Since he brought a lot of things today Qiao Nan decided to go all out, he prepared the braised pork with green onions along with pork and chives dumplings together with turnip cake and so stir-fried vegetables and braised vegetables along with so spinach and rice.

No sooner he started cooking all the servants who were looking despondently at the entrance of the courtyard imdiately turned to look at the small kitchen. Their attention was no longer on the arrival of Madam, now they only cared whether or not they will get a share of the dishes which were being prepared by their master.

Maybe it was better for the madam to not co at all, if she was to co then they will have to share a few dishes with their madam!

Mo Juxuan who just returned to the house did not have any idea that she was being treated like a pest by the servants of her official husband. She arched her back and then allowed a r to take her coat off as she headed towards her favourite r concubine's courtyard.

She had already promised that she was going to spend the new year with her. Thus even though she was exhausted after playing around with her friends and composing poems, she still went to look for the r concubine who was waiting for her but no sooner did she turn towards her harem, than she slled a scent which made all her exhaustion to be wiped away. Her eyes which were dripping snapped open as she started to whiff like a dog and ca to stand in front of Qiao Nan's courtyard.

' Did the chef cook sothing special? No that is not right, Qiao Nan hasn't eaten anything from the main kitchen for a long ti thus there is no way he would be eating sothing from the main kitchen which ans that he cooked sothing good?'

Mo Juxuan's taste buds were already hooked, though she looked like she was the serious and stern kind of woman. She liked eating good things and was sort of a foodie, thus when she slled sothing good, she couldn't stop herself and then headed inside the courtyard which she had never stepped inside for years.

She expected that as soon as she would walk inside the courtyard soone would co to greet her but the second Mo Juxuan entered the courtyard, the expression of the servants changed as they all looked at her with a terrifying expression.

While one of the servants exclaid in surprise, " Oh no… the madam is here now we will have to share the dishes…!"

Though the servant next to him placed a hand on the mouth of the r servant, it was already too late.

Mo Juxuan: "…." I am glad that you are treating

like so pest!
