Chapter 3168: Chapter 3169: Short on Resources
"Hmm, I was just outside thinking about so matters, I’ll go in now."
He cleared his throat, gave a brief instruction to the old nanny, and then lifted his foot to follow along.
"Nanny Li, instruct them to prepare more of Rong’er and Xu’er’s favorite dishes, and also make so extra pastries, after all, it’s been a while since Rong’er and Xu’er ca back."
"Don’t worry, Master, the Old Madam had already instructed this, the kitchen is already preparing." Nanny Li responded and then prepared to head to the kitchen to check.
...
Inside the main hall, after Old Madam Ding sat down, Ding Rong and Ding Xu took seats on either side of her.
"Rong’er, we have to thank you this ti, your brother’s health is finally improving."
"Grandmother, what are you saying? I only said a few words at most. The key is Miss Lin’s dical skills, which have made Xu’er healthy and it’s the virtue accumulated by our Ding ancestors."
Ding Rong dared not claim credit, after all, she hadn’t done much.
Furthermore, with her and Ding Xu’s current status, it’s hardly believable if ntioned. They’ll basically spend their entire lives under Lin Caisang’s side.
But that’s fine, Sui Zimo is, after all, the Junior City Lord of Sky City. It’s nothing out of the ordinary for the Ding Family to serve the City Lord’s Mansion.
"Look at that, Rong’er hasn’t been by Miss Lin for long, and she’s already beco quite eloquent, such a way with words!" Old Madam Ding said delightedly, finding rare joy amidst these troubling tis.
"I..."
Ding Rong just wanted to respond when she saw another nanny coming in from outside.
Coincidentally, she entered almost at the sa ti as Ding Zhuzui. The nanny paused when she saw the people in the hall but did not leave, instead first saluting and greeting everyone.
"How is it?"
Old Madam Ding looked at her and asked.
"In reply to the Old Madam, those close to Sixth Old Master in the household were the steward by the forr Madam’s side and the big maid by Concubine Qiongying’s side. Now, they have been reassigned elsewhere.
It seems they aren’t tasked with important duties anymore, and Sixth Old Master took the opportunity to win them over, hence, he got information from our mansion."
The nanny replied to Old Madam Ding.
"Hmph!"
Old Madam Ding snorted coldly, her face stern.
"Grandmother, is sothing happening at ho again?"
Ding Rong looked at the situation and guessed that those people from the branch family were causing trouble again, so she quickly asked.
I hope it’s not what I’m thinking, if it truly is, then their decision was indeed the correct one.
"It’s just so trivial matter not worth ntioning, Rong’er, since you and Xu’er are finally back, you needn’t pay it any mind." Old Madam Ding said to them and then turned to look at the nanny.
"Go and dismiss that person directly, tell them those few dicinal ingredients have long been used; regarding where they’ve been used, Sixth Ding can figure that out himself, there’s no need to explain in such detail."
"Yes, Old Madam."
The nanny complied, bowed to Ding Zhuzui, Ding Rong, and Ding Xu, and then exited.
"dicinal ingredients?"
Upon hearing this, Ding Xu raised his eyes and glanced at Ding Rong sitting across from him.
Those people moved so quickly, they had already set their sights on the Ding family. It seems the outsiders have quite the intelligence network!
"Grandmother, what kind of dicinal ingredients would make Grandpa Six send soone to ask for them?" he asked aloud.
