Chapter 535: Birthday Gift
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Moon whimpered as she leaned on Su Ying’s shoulder and began crying.
“Big Sister, I am willing. I want to see the light again.”
“Alright.”
Su Ying had already made plans earlier to send away those girls who had been
harmed.
She would send them to a place where no one knew them and let them start over. This was perhaps the best arrangement for them, from their perspective.
After ascertaining Moon’s wishes, Su Ying came out of the house and told Mr. Zhao and his family about a few places for them to choose. No matter where they went, she would help them settle down there.
“After all of you go there, I will get someone to prepare a house for you. It’s not big, but it’s enough for your family to live in. The household registration will also be done for you. Regardless of where you go, if you’re willing, you can continue your previous business. Otherwise, I will arrange work for all of you.
It all depends on your choice.”
Such living conditions were something that the Zhao family had never dared to imagine before.
After considering Moon’s situation, the family decided to go to a place farther
away from the capital city but closer to their hometown.
After confirming the details, Su Ying instructed someone to make the arrangements.
“When Moon’s condition stabilizes, tell the caretaker in the courtyard and he
will arrange everything for you.”
The Zhao family was naturally very grateful.
After settling this matter, the stone that had been weighing down on Su Ying’s heart was finally lifted.
When she returned to the palace, Su Ying slumped on the chaise lounge and closed her eyes to rest.
Upon seeing this, Bai Shuang stepped forward to give Su Ying a ma.s.sage to relieve her fatigue.
“If Your Imperial Highness is tired, then rest for a while. It’s not too late now, so after a nap, the First Prince and the Young Princess should also be back by
then.”
Su Ying murmured an acknowledgment. After her body relaxed, she fell asleep
in a daze.
While she was sleeping soundly, Su Ying felt an itchy feeling on her face. She reached out and slapped the thing away. Not long after that, the thing came again. She opened her eyes in annoyance and saw Ling holding a feather in her hand and grinning widely at her.
Su Ying’s anger dissipated in an instant. “You little rascal.” She grabbed Ling s tiny hand and squeezed it before sitting up on the soft couch.
“Big Brother, Mother is awake.” Ling turned around and called out in the direction of the door.
Before long, Ji’s tiny head poked in from outside the door and he called out softly, “Mother.”
Su Ying had been out of the palace for the past few days, so she hadn’t been able to have a good talk with them during the day. “What is it, Ji?”
Ji pursed his lips and beckoned to Su Ying. Su Ying became even more baffled.
She did not know what these two little fellows were up to.
Ling held Su Ying’s hand and walked out of the inner hall.
Ji entered the side hall before them.
As soon as Su Ying walked in, she saw a large longevity peach bun on the table.
She was very surprised.
“It’s going to be dinner soon. Are you sure you two can still eat after eating this?”
The two little fellows giggled and said, “Mother, this is prepared for Father.” Su Ying raised her eyebrows. Xiao Jin wanted to eat peach buns tonight?
“Ling, see? I told you Mother would have forgotten.”
Ling pouted her tiny mouth in disappointment and said, “Mother, today is
Father’s birthday. Have you really forgotten?”
Su Ying blinked. She really didn’t remember…
“How could this be? How could Mother not know your father’s birthday?”
“Then what gift did Mother prepare for Father?”
None!
Su Ying licked her lips and tried her best to think of a way to salvage the situation. The two kids had already prepared a big peach bun, so it would be a little unacceptable if she didn’t prepare anything.
“Mm-hmm. Of course it’s something good. Don’t let your father know about it later. Mother will go and get the gift that has been prepared.
After Su Ying finished speaking, she ran out like a whirlwind. Last time, she cleverly used the Life Bangle to save her own skin. If she didn’t show some sincerity today, Xiao Jin probably wouldn’t let it go so easily.
However, it was too late to prepare anything else now. Su Ying thought for a moment. Then she turned around and headed to the Imperial kitchen.
Today was Xiao Jin’s birthday, but Xiao Jin had already ordered them not to prepare any celebration. The kitchen only needed to prepare the dishes as usual and there was no need to make any special arrangements.
However, Uncle Hea still wanted to prepare something special for the Emperor. When Su Ying arrived at the Imperial kitchen, Uncle Hea was busy preparing dinner for the night. The other helpers were also busy bustling back and forth.
“Uncle Hea, what are you preparing?”
Hea Shouyi hurriedly raised his head when he heard Su Ying’s voice. He saw Su Ying standing by the window with her head extended inside, peering into the kitchen. He hurriedly handed the ladle in his hand to the kitchen helper and walked out of the kitchen.
“Why is Your Imperial Highness here? This place is full of smoke and fire. Be careful not to choke on the fumes, Your Imperial Highness.”
“No problem. I just want to make a bowl of longevity noodles for His Majesty myself.”
“Leave this matter to me, Your Imperial Highness.”
Su Ying shook her head adamantly.
Hea Shouyi gave Su Ying an odd look. Su Ying was definitely not someone who was pa.s.sionate about cooking personally, yet she insisted on making a bowl of noodles with her own hands…
“This is the birthday gift that Your Imperial Highness wants to give to the Emperor?”
Su Ying raised her eyebrows and didn’t deny it.
Hea Shouyi’s brows twitched. Wasn’t this gift a little too perfunctory?
However, since Su Ying wanted to express her sincerity, Hea Shouyi got the kitchen staff to help clean up a pot.
“What kind of longevity noodles does Your Imperial Highness want to make?”
Su Ying didn’t know. What kind of fancy form could this longevity noodles possibly take?
Hea Shouyi saw Su Ying’s baffled look and explained, “Your Imperial Highness, according to common practice, there is not much variety in this type of noodle, but since you are making it for His Majesty to eat… If you add something fanciful, won’t it let His Majesty know your good intentions?”
Su Ying felt that a bowl of noodles was just a bowl of noodles even if done in fanciful ways…
“Then tell me what kind of fanciful things can be done? I will do all of them.” Xiao Jin only returned to Conjugal Phoenix Palace after the sun had set. When he walked into the inner hall, the two little fellows heard the commotion and walked out.
“Father, you are back.”
Xiao Jin nodded slightly and held their hands. “What were you doing just now? Where’s your mother?”
Ling was about to open her mouth when Ji covered it and said, “Mother said that she had something important to do and would be back soon.
Xiao Jin looked at the two little ones behaving suspiciously and raised his eyebrows.
The two little ones obediently followed Xiao Jin into the hall and sat on the chairs dutifully. Their big eyes looked out of the door from time to time. Their actions were so blatant that it was difficult for Xiao Jin to pretend not to know even if he wanted to.
Xiao Jin stood up, and the two little ones quickly followed suit.
“Father, where are you going?” Ling asked as she held onto Xiao Jin’s hand.
Xiao Jin’s expression did not change. “I’m going to see what your mother is doing.”
Ji winked at Ling. He was hinting that Mother went to prepare a surprise for Father. If Father found out in advance, it would not be a surprise.
“Father, Mother said that she will be back soon. Father, just wait!” Ji also pulled Xiao Jin back and refused to let him go out.
Even if Xiao Jin were a fool, he could still tell that these two little fellows and their mother were planning something..
