Chapter 16 His Highness Admires Me

Su Liuyue could tell what Shopkeeper Yuan was thinking, so she smiled helplessly and said, "I said, I never thought these two kinds of snacks were not delicious, but they are not good enough for a pastry shop.

Shopkeeper Yuan has been running a pastry shop for so many years that he must know better than me that there are countless pastry shops in this huge imperial city that sell mung bean ice cream and snowflake pastry. These two kinds of pastries are traditional pastries. Nine out of ten times any pastry shop will sell them, and there are countless chefs who make them well.

"What good things have those nobles in the imperial city not eaten? Why would they come to our Manyifang to buy them when there are better choices?"

According to the original owner's memory, the probability of these two types of snacks appearing in ordinary afternoon tea or snacks eaten at banquets is ridiculously high.

Su Liuyue didn't even need the memories of her past life to taste the difference.

To put it bluntly, it's unoriginal and doesn't taste as good as others!

Shopkeeper Yuan was a little hesitant.

He probably didn't know that! He just didn't have any better choice.

Su Liuyue glanced in the direction of the kitchen and said, "But no matter what, these two kinds of snacks are still quite tasty. They are not bad to give as gifts. Don't worry, I won't give them for free. I will pay for them."

Although the original owner's financial situation was rather tight, he still had some private money.

Shopkeeper Yuan waved his hands repeatedly, "What are you talking about, Third Miss? These two boxes of snacks are not worth much! Are you going to bring some snacks back to the Su family's master and mistress?"

Who brought those two?
Su Liuyue tried her best not to roll her eyes, "No, I'm going to visit my uncle and aunt at Xue's house later."

After hearing these words, Shopkeeper Yuan was stunned.

Er'an was also stunned.

Oh my god, did they hear me right?!

The third girl is actually going to Xue’s house! Going to Xue’s house!

Even after they left Man Yifang, Ersi and Er'an were still in disbelief. Ersi even looked up at the sky blankly, "Miss, are you really going to Xue's house? It's not raining red today..."

It's no wonder that they were so shocked. Ever since the girl grew up, she has disliked the Xue family. Normally, when people from the Xue family came to the Su Mansion to see the girl, the girl would ignore them, not to mention the girl taking the initiative to go to the Xue family. It can be said that in the past ten years, the girl has not even stepped into the alley where the Xue family is located!

Su Liuyue glared at the two girls unhappily, "My brain was muddled before, but now, I can tell who is truly good to me."

Ersi and Eran couldn't help but look at each other.

That’s right! After surviving the catastrophe, the girl has become a completely different person. Maybe God is really watching over her and guiding her from the sky!
The master and his two servants hailed a carriage on the street and headed straight to the Xue family.

They left in a hurry, not noticing that there were three figures secretly observing them in an alley diagonally opposite Man Yifang.

"So this is what this magical girl looks like."

Xiangbei, who was leaning against the wall, touched his chin with one hand and whispered with interest, "She's actually quite pretty. I thought that girls who wore veils on the street were either plain-looking or had something shameful to show!"

The people of Dayan were open-minded, and women could even eat at the same table with men. Daqing naturally also inherited this custom.

Therefore, most women go out on the street openly, and very few of them will cover their faces.

"Xiangbei, shut up!"

Feng Yang scolded expressionlessly: "Your Highness, did you ask us to come here so that you can comment on other people's appearance?"

Xiang Bei was a lively person, and he was often on missions outside, so how could he be easily restrained? He smiled and glanced at Feng Yang, "Commander Feng, don't be so serious all the time. Besides, His Highness didn't say anything. Your Highness, am I right? That girl just now, was she pretty?"

Feng Yang: “…”

This guy just relies on his excellent martial arts skills and wide connections in the martial arts world. No matter how he behaves, Your Highness will not punish him easily!
The man in black who was leaning against the wall with his arms folded opposite them turned his head and glanced at Xiang Bei with a half-smile, "Nothing more than that." Xiang Bei's eyes suddenly widened, "Is this still nothing more than that? Looking at the entire imperial city, the girl just now is already considered to be of excellent appearance! Your Highness, I have always felt that you..."

He paused, then pointed stealthily at an ordinary-looking woman who happened to be passing by on the street, "Your Highness, what about this woman?"

"Nothing."

He pointed to a pretty young lady passing by and said, "What about this one?"

"Nothing."

Then he pointed to an old woman who had stopped in front of Man Yifang's door, "What about this one?"

"Nothing."

Finally, Xiangbei pointed at himself and said, "Then...where is that villain?"

Zhou Yunke raised his eyes slightly, and his appearance seemed to be somewhat charming for a moment. He smiled gently, "Very good, you look like Pan An."

Xiangbei: “…”

Ignoring Xiangbei who seemed to have frozen into a stone, Zhou Yunke stood up and said, "You two, find out the details of that woman just now and compile it into a file and present it to me within one day. I want to see whether she is really capable or just pretending."

After saying that, he walked straight out of the alley.

Feng Yang immediately responded, "Yes!"

After saying this, just as he was about to follow his master, his sleeve was suddenly grabbed. Feng Yang turned around in confusion, and saw Xiang Bei with a sad face, saying weakly: "It's over, it's over, Commander Feng, I discovered a secret of His Highness, His Highness seems... really doesn't like women!"

"And...and His Highness, you seem to be secretly in love with me! No! How can this be! I am the only heir of the Xiang family for nine generations! I shoulder the responsibility of carrying on the Xiang family's bloodline! And! And! I really don't like men! Although His Highness looks good... okay, he is very good, but I just can't accept it!"

"It's over, Commander Feng, you said that His Highness looked at me like that just now, but he is going to attack me tonight! My innocence is at stake! Commander Feng, you must save me!"

Feng Yang: “…”

He really didn't want to admit that this idiot was actually his colleague.

Doesn't this guy have any idea in his mind? Even if His Highness is really gay, he must be blind to fall in love with him!

……

The overall layout of Xinjing is divided into three layers, namely the outer city, the inner city and the imperial city. The outer city is generally where ordinary people live, the inner city is where dignitaries or wealthy businessmen live, and the imperial city, as the name suggests, is where officials live and work.

The Su family could still barely live in the inner city, but they were on the edge of the inner city. The Xue family, on the other hand, could not even squeeze into the inner city. The whole family now lived in an alley called Tongxin Lane in the outer city.

This was also the reason why the original owner was unwilling to go to the Xue family.

Fortunately, Chang'an Street where Man Yifang was located was also in the outer city, not far from Tongxin Lane, and the carriage arrived in less than a quarter of an hour.

Most of the people living in Tongxin Lane are officials, but most of them are inconspicuous minor officials in the court. The Xue family lives at the innermost part of Tongxin Lane.

Relying on the pitifully few and extremely vague memories in the original owner's mind, Su Liuyue was very lucky to find the right place on the first try.

The doorman of the Xue family was a short old man. After hearing Er Si's report of his daughter's identity, his mouth opened wide with a look of disbelief. It took him a while to come back to his senses. He turned around abruptly and ran into the house with a pair of old cold legs, stammering, "Madam! Madam! It's... it's the third lady! The third lady of the Su Mansion is here!"

　The heroine's biggest love rival appears!
