The Empress Dowager

Chapter 350 Going to the Countryside ([-])

Nangong Yue followed Murong Yu to the courtyard where some vegetables were drying and there was a well beside it.

Nangong Yue went to the well and looked down. It was bottomless and the water was very clear. There was a bucket next to the well, and a long rope was tied to the bucket. Nangong Yue picked up the bucket and filled up half of it. , walked into the house, took a teacup, took a sip, it was sweet and sweet, very delicious.

"It's really strange, the surrounding area is obviously full of saline soil..."

"Let's take a good look at it tomorrow, and today you should rest well and don't tire yourself out." Murong Yu said softly.

Nangong Yue nodded. It would be great if I could find that spring tomorrow.

In the evening, when Lin Yongning came back from work, he happened to buy two catties of pork from the town. Mrs. Deng was still worried that she would not have good food to entertain people, so now she happened to have food to entertain guests.

During dinner, Lin Wenqian happened to come back. Along the way, she heard someone tell her that several distinguished guests had come to her house. Lin Wenqian walked back quickly, ran to the kitchen and looked at Mrs. Deng who was busy cooking, and asked:
"Mother, I heard that there are some distinguished guests at home, where are they?"

Deng said while cooking, "They have been busy all day, and they are resting in the room!"

Lin Wenqian looked at the dishes on the table, her eyes flickered, it was rare to eat the dishes tonight!

Lin Wenqian thought about it, so she reached out and picked up a piece of fried meat with her chopsticks and started to eat. Deng quickly put the fried meat aside: "This is for the distinguished guests. Later, eat less when eating."

"Mother, what kind of distinguished guest are you? You are being treated like this? It's nothing more than that when the elder brother comes back!" Lin Wenqian frowned and said displeasedly.

"You'll know in a while. They're living in your elder brother's room now. You go and invite them to eat." Deng put the last dish on the dish and took it to the table in the living room.

There were four dishes and one soup on the table, and the food was white rice. Lin Yongning greeted the guests to eat, and the shadows on the table were very awkward. This was the first time he had a meal with his master, and he felt strange.

Xianying lowered her head, eating the white rice in the bowl.

Lin Wenqian kept her eyes on Xianying, seeing that Xianying was only eating the rice in the bowl, she hurriedly greeted: "Master, don't worry about eating, grab some vegetables and eat."

Xianying paused, and ate a piece of cabbage with chopsticks. Lin Wenqian was very happy to see this.

For Xianying's unnaturalness, Nangong Yue also felt a little bit. After all, in ancient times, people were very particular about their status, so it was normal for Xianying to be like this.

"My lord, girl, you can also pick up vegetables." Deng said while eating.

"We are eating!" Nangong Yue said, pointing to Murong Yu: "His name is Murong Yu, I am Nangong Yue." Nangong Yue pointed to Xianying again: "His name is Xianying, you can call us by our names from now on gone."

"After all, he is a son of a rich man, with such a nice name." Deng said with a smile.

Murong Yu had always been indifferent to people, so Murong Yu only listened to Nangong Yue and the Lin family's conversation without saying a word.

After dinner, Nangong Yue and Murong Yu went to rest early, and Xianying went to rest in the carriage. Seeing this, Lin Wenqian felt a little uncomfortable. Brother Xianying had no place to live, so he actually slept in the carriage. Brother Ying.

Lin Wenqian thought for a long time, and went to find Mrs. Deng. At this moment, Mrs. Deng was helping Lin Wenkang undress. Seeing Lin Wenqian coming, Mrs. Deng asked, "Qian'er, what's the matter if you don't rest so late?"

"Mother, although our house is a bit small, we can't let guests live outside?" Lin Wenqian said.

"You child, what nonsense are you talking about? This is not the mother who asked Mr. Xianying to sleep in the carriage."
