“My lord, my lord! Good news!” said the housekeeper when he returned.Su Huanli looked happy and asked, “Is it done?”“Yes!”The housekeeper clapped. “Squire Li really liked the delicacies, and he agreed at once.”But Su Huanli sneered and whispered, “This dish will definitely be a huge profit in the restaurant. He is raised by Li Shanbao. If he didn’t agree, there would be something wrong!”Su Huanli couldn’t help but sigh. “If the Su family didn’t focus on the cloth business, I wouldn’t give Li Wei the chance to make money on this. What a pity.”The housekeeper suddenly understood Su Huanli’s words. No wonder Li Wei made his decision without hesitation.“My lord, that recipe...”“You take the pen, ink, paper and inkstone and go to Erya,” Su Huanli said, then frowned. “It’s a huge matter… Just find a good excuse and take her to the study.”In a small courtyard, Su Erya sat quietly in the sunshine with her eyes closed, as if she

Doctor Qi thought his identity was well hidden. Everyone was in the dark about who he was except for Su Erya, because she knew him from the barracks in her previous life.Back then, he had looked at Su Erya with some pity and a lot of disgust, as she was just one of many military prostitutes in the barracks.Now living in the remote Dasu Town, it was no wonder that no one could find him in this world.Once Su Erya stepped out, Qi Xianqing’s eyes immediately lit up. Su Huanli didn’t notice this. He introduced Doctor Qi to Erya at once, “This is my daughter, Erya. What do you think?”Qi Xianqing pretended to look up and down for a moment, and nodded slightly, “Miss Su is a natural beauty, and she must be very intelligent. I’ll stay here to give it a try for a few days.”Su Huanli was happy. He said, “Then the girl will have the honor to be your student, Mr. Qi.”Qi Xianqing smiled kindly with glistening eyes. “By the way, I’ve heard that your eldest

Didn’t the Lord always dislike that the women in his family had literacy? How did he suddenly change his mind to let Erya learn to read, and specially invite a teacher to teach her? This... this was ridiculous!“Second Miss is smart and she learns quickly. The Lord has always appreciated her! It is said that the First Madam cultivated a good daughter.”Her personal nanny observed the First Madam’s expressions as she congratulated her. Although the First Madam had not liked the Second Miss in the past, now that the Second Miss was so favored by the Lord, the nanny thought that the attitude of the First Madam should change.She looked down and saw that Zhu Yan was furious and looked at her with anger. She was so scared that she froze with her mouth open. She really didn’t know if she had said anything wrong.“It seems that the Lord didn’t find out that Erya is not his daughter,” said Zhu Yan as she slowly combed her hair. Her face in

Su Erya smiled slightly. But when she turned her head, she was pitiful. She obediently walked in front, exactly as before.Nanny Li followed timidly and kept looking around, hoping to meet the butler. But unfortunately, as they walked to the West Courtyard, she did not meet him on the road.Boom!The wooden door of the big wing of the West courtyard was violently closed, and the First Madam turned her face without expression. She said, “Nanny Li, thanks for your care for Erya during these days. From now on, Nanny Zheng who comes from West Courtyard will take care of her. Nanny Zheng, give her some money and let her go. If she doesn’t go... just beat and drag her out!”Clack!A thick wooden stick was put in front of her, and Nanny Li was so frightened that she trembled violently. Such a big stick could break her legs. But she did not take the money or move.Nanny Zheng grimly smiled. When she lifted the sti

Qi Xianqing knew that the relationship between himself and Su Erya was not suitable to expose, so he had to restrain his anxiety. He coughed lightly and said, “Today Second Miss did not come to class. I don’t teach if not all my students are present. That’s my rule. First Madam, please tell me where the Second Miss is, so that I can go and have a look.”The First Madam had a stiff smile on her face, and she cursed the pedantic old man for his eccentricity.“Sir, come and let’s talk.”The First Madam stretched out her hand and pointed to a path. Qi Xianqing looked cool, but still walked with her.“Sure enough, you still want money! But if it could be solved with money, I’ll do it.” The First Madam snorted coldly. In order to trace the origins of the jade, she almost spent all her money. She only hoped that he wouldn’t want too much.“Ah...you are all bad guys! No one will save my second sister. I am going to tell father
