She didn’t feel much better until she applied the ointment given to her by a classmate.

And because it was so relaxing, she slept comfortably all night.

Speaking of Su Xiaoxiao’s ointment, Princess Jingning was reminded of the pastries Su Xiaoxiao had given her.

She glanced at the now-vanished box of pastries on the table and asked, “Where are my pastries?”  

Taozhi replied, “Are you referring to the box that was on the table earlier? His Majesty ate them.”  

Emperor Jingxuan had originally come to visit Jingning, but while sitting there, he noticed the box of pastries sent over from Kunning Palace earlier. 

Before he knew it, he had finished them all.  

He didn’t even leave a single one for Jingning.  

Princess Jingning’s face darkened.

Lihua Lane 

Su Xiaoxiao was already risen.  

She mulled over the events of the previous night once more, feeling rather pleased.  

However, as she looked at the three little ones still sound asleep beside her, she smacked her forehead in frustration.  

“That guy really knows how to distract me, made me forget to ask him if the three children are truly his older brother’s flesh and blood. As they say, beauty misleads people!”  

After Su Mo shared his speculation with her yesterday, she had asked him to temporarily keep it from Qin Canglan and the Old Marquis.  

Su Mo had agreed.  

However, he only gave her three days. Because, eventually, the scouts would return and report to the Old Marquis.  

“Will I be able to see Wei Ting within these three days?”  

Su Xiaoxiao went to wake Su Ergou, and after the siblings finished baking the pastries, the three little ones were also awakened.  

Breakfast consisted of lamb buns and coarse grain porridge.  

The lamb was precisely balanced between lean and fatty, and the spices helped to eliminate any gaminess.

It was served with finely chopped carrots cooked in lamb stock, creating an aromatic, rich, and savory filling with just a trace of sweetness.

The coarse grain porridge was cooked with chunks of sweet potato, which added their natural sweetness into the thick, velvety porridge, resulting in a delicately sweet and soft texture.  

Uninvited guests arrived just as the food was being served.

Su Qi and Su Yu flashed their radiant white teeth, as if they were preparing to take out bowls and ask for alms.  

After the three little ones finished brushing their teeth, the entire family gathered around the table for the meal.  

Su Qi and Su Yu weren’t expecting their younger cousin to excel at both pastries and cooking. Even her steamed buns were more aromatic than those prepared by the chefs at their home.

Unlike the rough, dry buns they were used to, these buns were soft and fluffy, brimming with very rich broth and without a hint of gaminess.  

And this was lamb meat… lamb meat ah!  

They had never eaten lamb meat before!  

The two brothers buried their heads in the buns, unable to stop themselves.  

Su Ergou finished one bun and reached for another, only to discover it empty.  

He looked up in disbelief at the large, now-empty steamer.  

Huh… where did the buns go?!  

Su Qi and Su Yu were still savoring the aftertaste, thoroughly satisfied.  

If it hadn’t been for the three little ones’ distinctively shaped piggy buns, which the brothers were too embarrassed to take, their plates could have been empty.

Su Ergou and the other two left immediately after their meal, as they had morning courses at Imperial College.

The three little ones took their time finishing their food. Su Xiaoxiao changed their clothes, washed their hands, and instructed them to rinse their mouths before sending them to Ling Yun’s home.

Although Princess Jingning was unharmed, her ‘deep sleep’ for the entire day and night had raised enough concerns that the Empress requested a day off from palace school for her.  

Today, it was Teacher Jiang’s class again.

Teacher Jiang had long regarded Su Xiaoxiao as a hopeless case, not worth polishing.  

Thus, Su Xiaoxiao’s day passed relatively uneventfully.  

After school, Su Mo came to pick her up.  

Su Xiaoxiao got into the carriage and said, “I’d like to visit my father with Ergou.”
