As she was about to leave, she gave Nurse Feng and the others a few worried instructions before she departed with a furrowed brow.
Su Pan’er had a good sleep.
Miaoyu and Qingwen were still helping her get dressed when a little maidservant reported from outside the door that Ke’er had arrived.
Ke’er rushed in and looked her up and down, "Fourth sister, they said you were almost about to give birth last night, is it true?"
"Of course not, the fourth sister just had a leg cramp."
Seeing Ke’er, Su Pan’er couldn’t help but show a face full of joy, "Have you eaten yet? If not, would you like to have breakfast with the fourth sister this morning?"
"Yes, yes! Ke’er hasn’t eaten yet. Co to think of it, it’s been a while since Ke’er had a al with the fourth sister."
Su Ke looked excited.
"Good, let’s eat together."
After so thought, she turned back to instruct Nurse Feng, "I am not sure if our first cousin brother has had his al this morning? Have soone go check. If not, please invite him over for breakfast. It’s more lively with more people."
"Yes, My Lady. I will send soone right away."
Nurse Feng responded and imdiately turned to leave.
These older servants are absolutely indispensable! Su Pan’er sighed.
Su Huarong had already had his breakfast, but he still ca over to have so snacks with Su Pan’er and Ke Er.
"I heard you weren’t feeling well last night? Did you call for a doctor today?"
Su Huarong looked at her with concern.
"It’s nothing, I just had a leg cramp, which sohow caused a commotion in the house. It’s really embarrassing."
Su Pan’er was sweating profusely!
Wasn’t it just a leg cramp? They’d made it seem like a big deal!
"It’s not a minor matter, if you need to be treated, you should be treated. This is the capital city, we’re not short of food, so don’t skimp. Don’t you think you’re a little too thin now?" Su Huarong’s eyes scanned over her, his brows furrowed tighter.
She was too thin!
Su Pan’er looked up and down at herself, agreeing that she was too thin now!
She had eaten a lot of delicious food, but aside from her belly and chest getting bigger, her body was still lacking in flesh. It was quite strange.
"I eat a lot every day! Look at this pot of soup from this morning!"
Su Pan’er sighed and put down her soup ladle.
No wonder she sighed. So early in the morning it was a big pot of pigeon soup with barley and lotus seeds. Although this dish was indeed suitable for pregnant won, it still made people feel a bit greasy.
Su Huarong glanced at the rascal pig, who had his entire snout buried in the basin, and cleared his throat.
"This soup is very good! It’s simred just right, rich in flavor without being too salty or plain. The cook’s skills are comndable."
"Fourth sister, our first cousin brother is right! The soup tastes great."
Ke’er, who had been focused on eating, surprisingly gave her fair review.
"Just keep eating."
Su Pan’er chuckled for a mont, then quickly scooped so more pigeon at for him: "Since you’ve co to the Capital City, what about your two Master Teachers? What will they do?"
Initially, when they left, they couldn’t help themselves, and they hadn’t arranged for what was to co.
Now that they thought about it, it was indeed too hasty.
"Both my Master Teachers have co with . This was also Old Cheng’s idea. He said, even if you arrange for other Master Teachers for , it wouldn’t hinder from having two more teachers guiding ."
Ke’er picked up a chopstick full of pigeon at, eating deliciously: "The food on that big ship was too bad, it was dried at and dry food every day, eating it felt tasteless in my mouth, I always involuntarily thought of the als my mother cooked at ho."
Su Pan’er was taken aback and put down her chopsticks.
"Was the food on the ship really bad?"
Su Huarong shook his head: "It can’t be considered bad, it was better than the food we had when we went to Yongzhou Prefecture last ti. However, it was after all in snowy weather."
Su Pan’er nodded in understanding.
After the al was finished and the dishes were removed and replaced with Fragrant Tea, Su Pan’er took out a Salt Contract and put it on the table, pushing it in front of Su Huarong.
"They say when you go to war, brothers fight like fathers and sons. Even though I, Su Pan’er, am not of Su Family’s blood, I have been raised by the Su Family since I was young! Initially, when faced with death, the people of Su Family did not abandon . I am not one of those who are ungrateful. You should understand the use of this Salt Contract, the silver you need to use I also have here, the rest is up to you, my first cousin brother!"
Su Huarong stared at the Salt Contract on the table for a long ti, his outstretched hand trembling slightly.
He slowly picked it up and held it tightly, took a deep breath, stood up, and bowed to Su Pan’er.
"Fourth younger sister, this generous intention of yours, on behalf of the entire Su Family, I thank you. Fourth younger sister, rest assured, leave the matters behind to your first cousin brother, I will certainly not let you down."
Su Huarong had already left for quite so ti, Su Pan’er still maintained the sa posture without moving, as if she was contemplating sothing.
Ke’er couldn’t stand it and pulled her sleeve: "Fourth sister, you don’t have to worry for our first cousin brother, he’s very capable! You can rest assured."
Ke’er completely trusted him.
Su Pan’er suddenly ca back to her senses and casually agreed: "Yes! Our first cousin brother is quite sothing."
Although Su Huarong had just arrived in the Capital City, with his character and intellect, plus a strong backing, if he still couldn’t achieve anything, then it could only be said that he was rotten wood, impossible to carve.
Having thought through these things, she put the matter aside. She got up and went outside the house to arrange the new batch of servants to move into the new mansion.
Upon learning that Ke’er’s two ntors had also co along, Su Pan’er specifically went to et them, increased their monthly salary, and formally entrusted Ke’er to the two.
The two never expected that she, who is already the vice commander’s wife, would place so much importance on them, they were imdiately moved to tears, repeatedly expressing their thanks.
From then on, the two devoting themselves wholeheartedly to tutoring Ke’er.
Once the new mansion was completely settled, Su Pan’er personally selected an auspicious day and moved into the new house.
On the day of moving, the fireworks were launched and Qin Yi clutched a fire basin, leading the family while shouting "prosperity" into the house, symbolizing liveliness. Su Pan’er held a jade Ruyi scepter, everyone around her was holding items representing the warding off of evil spirits or good luck, all with faces full of joy.
Then, the guests behind also entered the house.
According to tradition, the new house offered a stove on the sa day and cooked the first al after moving in.
Among the guests who ca, naturally included Ye Han, siblings Jun Ruoxue, Mrs. Zhang, and several other officials and colleagues Qin Yi had recently beco good friends with. Even the Liu Family sent Liu Zikang.
Soon, the rewards from Imperial Consort Hua at the palace arrived!
Assorted gold, silver, and jade utensils filled the crystal tray and were placed in the center of the main room, dazzling everyone’s eyes.
Su Pan’er and Qin Yi gave a big red packet to the eunuch who conveyed Imperial Consort’s edict, naturally, it was another round of thanks.
