Chapter 1065 A Happy Laughter
Chapter 1065 A Happy Laughter
"When Mother has finished cooking, she can come out of the small kitchen and give the chefs a chance to show their skills."
Liang Chongyue hadn't eaten a meal cooked by her mother for some time.
If we count the time it took to make the braised noodles for her in the morning, then it wasn't particularly long.
Liang Chongyue responded with a thrown crab shell.
If Liang Chongyue hadn't dodged so quickly, she would have been hit by the crab shell.
After guessing what her mother was going to do, Liang Chongyue stopped causing trouble in front of her.
The Empress Dowager found the palace boring, so she was allowed to travel freely inside and outside the palace.
The Empress Dowager found life boring without Minglang, so when Minglang was around, she would try to create more interesting things for her.
This is how the Empress Dowager will remember it in the future.
It can even make you laugh out loud.
Liang Chongyue went directly to the washroom to bathe and change.
She still carried the unpleasant smell of the dungeon, though it wasn't very noticeable in the open space.
Once back in the palace, she had only been standing in the main hall of Cining Palace for a short while when Liang Chongyue smelled the stench emanating from herself.
She was even a little worried that she would make her mother's bedroom smell bad.
The water room was for a petal bath, and Yunling was the one preparing the water for her.
"Such a trivial matter can be left to the subordinates. Why do you need to prepare water for me yourself?"
As Liang Chongyue spoke, his gaze fell on Yun Ling's rolled-up sleeves.
Even though Yunling was very careful, her cuffs still got a little wet.
“How can Your Majesty’s bathing be a trivial matter? To this servant, it is a matter of paramount importance. Everything concerning Your Majesty is of utmost importance.”
Yunling has such a sharp tongue; if Ping An had her ability, he wouldn't have been unable to control the palace servants.
"Alright, stop joking around. After I take a bath, go back and change your clothes. It's cold outside, don't catch a cold."
Yunling smiled and responded.
After Liang Chongyue lay down, she relaxed completely, and even the water temperature was perfectly controlled.
It was the temperature she liked.
"This servant will massage Your Majesty's shoulders. Your Majesty has been working very hard these days."
Liang Chongyue closed her eyes and soaked in the hot water. She responded with a sound and continued to enjoy the warmth of the water.
Yunling's shoulder massage skills were also superb, and Liang Chongyue was almost falling asleep comfortably.
At this moment, in the small kitchen of Cining Palace, Xiang Huayue watched Minglang eat while feeding the kitten.
One plate of snacks wasn't enough for them.
"Grandma, this snack is really delicious, do you have any more?"
Xiang Huayue noticed that Minglang looked like he hadn't eaten lunch, and then she remembered that Minglang had been sent out by His Majesty to do something.
There are also times when there isn't enough time to eat, or the food isn't to one's liking.
"Stop eating for now, just have something to eat. If you keep eating, will you even have dinner?"
Minglang knew when to stop; no matter how delicious the snacks were, they couldn't possibly be as good as the meals cooked by the Empress Dowager herself.
"The last piece, the kitten's last piece too."
After Minglang finished speaking, he fed a piece to both himself and the kitten.
Then I saw the puppy wolfing down its food.
"Let's finish the last dish for the puppy. I think the puppy almost finished the whole bowl."
The kitten turned its head and glanced at the smelly dog. Hmm, its owner wasn't mistaken.
This is already the third dish in a whole pot.
"The puppy can't eat anymore after finishing this plate. It needs to save some room to taste Grandma's cooking. No other puppy has this kind of luck."
The system wanted to pretend it didn't understand, just like before, but when it looked up, it met the loving gaze of its mother.
It remembers now, it remembers everything.
It had already been exposed to the Queen Mother long ago, before the Queen Mother and the host had spoken out about it.
It can also pretend not to understand human speech.
Now it would dare to pretend it doesn't understand human speech.
I have a feeling that my mother will neglect it for a long time.
The system nodded helplessly.
Never mind, I'll eat it tomorrow.
Even those who have to say goodbye to these delicacies before the start of spring can resist the temptation.
It can definitely do it too, even if it's just a little dog.
The system will never admit that it stopped because it saw the kitten's defiant look.
Absolutely not.
Xiang Huayue saw this scene and smiled as she said to Minglang:
"You should also take a bath and change your clothes. If you come to the table smelling of them, your mother will probably be unhappy."
On matters like this, Minglang wouldn't mince words with his grandmother.
If the Empress Dowager really lost her appetite because of her smell and ate less food.
It feels like all of Grandma's hard work tonight has been for nothing.
"Then I'll go take a bath and change my clothes first. Grandmother, you've worked hard today. When I learn how to cook the dishes that Grandmother likes, I'll cook them for you too."
Although she knew that day might be far away, Xiang Huayue kept the child's words to herself after Minglang said so.
Just as His Majesty once said, he would give her the freedom and happiness that the women in the harem had never experienced.
His Majesty has accomplished it; it was only a matter of time.
"Okay, then Grandma will wait for Minglang to cook Grandma's favorite dishes."
Minglang suppressed his smile, stood still, and suddenly straightened his body.
He solemnly addressed his grandmother:
"I mean what I say. I will definitely master the dish that Grandma loves the most, and then I will let Grandma taste my cooking."
Xiang Huayue was amused by Minglang's serious and solemn appearance.
"Alright, alright, go take a bath and change your clothes. If you delay for a while, Grandma's dishes will be ready soon."
As the Empress Dowager spoke, Liang Chongyue tiptoed and peeked into the pot in front of her.
Almost simultaneously, the kitten stood on the system's head, peeking with the system at what was in the pot.
Actually, I could already smell the aroma.
The man, his dog, and his cat just wanted to tease Xiang Huayue.
"If you don't behave, I'll punish you two by not letting you eat dinner tonight."
The system desperately wanted to pretend it didn't understand, but it had already been exposed, and anything it did now would only make things worse.
To Xiang Huayue, this furtive behavior looked no different from that of a guilty thief.
However, ever since she told His Majesty about that matter, the puppy has been doing this frequently.
Xiang Huayue was used to it, but she didn't know where His Majesty had found such a powerful little dog.
It feels like it can no longer understand human speech.
If His Majesty told her now that puppies could speak human language, she would believe it.
At this moment, the kitten standing on the dog's head also avoided eye contact.
However, it looks a little more natural than a smelly dog.
Of course, this "slight" degree is also the kitten's own perception.
As for exactly how many there were, Xiang Huayue only felt that the two little guys were just as cute as their owner.
Their attitudes after making mistakes are all very similar; it's just that I haven't seen that on His Majesty's face for a long time.
Thinking back to His Majesty's childhood, just thinking about it makes her smile with happiness.
