It's still too early to tell what the final shape will be.Three outside rooms are also under construction, one of which is building a kang.Da Zhuang and Sun Er Ge, hands full of mud and sweat drippin...Jia Yin remembered how her brothers were taking exams, so she got up early, ate breakfast, and then strolled around the courtyard.

Zilan Palace had cultivated many flowers and grasses. This season, they already showed a hint of pale green.

Several young maidservants carrying buckets were watering the plants. Upon seeing her, they quickly curtsied.

Jia Yin waved her hand, rolled up her sleeves to help out, and spent some free time.

The maids were initially a bit restrained, but gradually they discovered that Jia Yin had no airs about her and was very kind.

They began to pluck up their courage and chat with Jia Yin.

"Miss, everyone says that Suijin Beach is a geomantic treasure trove, with gold growing everywhere. Is it true" A round-faced little maid asked with curiosity and amazement, her words also bringing laughter to everyone's faces.

Jia Yin pulled up two blades of grass and laughed, "That's true. Our Suijin Beach soil is perfect for growing emerald cucumbers and golden fruits – they are especially sweet and delicious."

"When a jade gourd is being fried to the hottest point, it's truly worth exchanging for a silver ingot. Therefore, you can also say that Broken Gold Beach is truly a place abundant with silver."

The round-faced maid clearly loved to eat, her throat bobbing involuntarily as she eyed the food with envy.

"If only I were born in Suijin Tan, they say that when you put jade melon into well water and keep it there, at the hottest time of day, to eat a bite is more refreshing than anything, even for a god! Especially cool, especially sweet."

The other maids also nodded along, smiling and agreeing.

Yes, the stewards in the Imperial Study had eaten jade melon before. It was a gift from the Emperor to Manager Yi, who then distributed it.

"It's a pity we don't serve in the Imperial Study."

"I heard that the Biyu Gua has a green outer skin, but its inside is red. How amazing!"

Jia Yin has always been generous. She said, "I have an abundance of jade gourds at Suijin Beach, my domain. You should guard me and not envy others."

"You all must serve the princess well. During summer, I'll have people send over several jade gourds for you to enjoy at Zhilan Palace. Everyone can taste how sweet the jade gourds are."

"Really Thank you, County Princess!"

“Thank you, Lady. You are so kind!”

"Wah, really can I eat the jade melon Thank you, County Princess."

The Third Princess heard the commotion inside the house and came out to join in the fun.

The maids instantly transformed back into timid quails, bowing hurriedly before scurrying away with their buckets.

The Third Princess couldn't help but roll her eyes, pretending to be angry.

"Li Jiayin, you bought my maidservant again! Humph, if I let you stay here any longer, my Zhilang Palace will all belong to you!"

Jia Yin had lived with her for so long, she knew all too well her habit of saying one thing and meaning another.

Then, she rolled her eyes at the Third Princess and sneered, “You say that So I should just leave the palace right now I'd rather stay in my own comfortable home than come here to suffer with you. I must be a real fool!”

The third princess immediately hugged Jiayin, laughing and flattering her, "Don't! You must stay with me, if you leave, I won't have anyone to play with!"

Jia Yin patted her arm and sighed, “I miss Baozhu so much. That little girl was the most adorable and obedient! I haven't seen her in ages. I’ll send another letter home and ask Mei Yi to send Baozhu some fruit and vegetables.”

"Wah wah, Jia Yin, you can't be so partial! I want to eat fruit too, no, I want bananas and peaches. Thinking about them keeps me up at night. Would the noble lady please give me a few Please"

The third princess, mouth watering, couldn't help but scold, "It's all that old witch's fault! She caused trouble, and now we can't even leave the palace!"

Jia Yin feared that if she spoke, the eunuchs and maids might overhear her. She hastily changed the subject.

"Fine, if you want to eat it, just have someone send word. We'll have the fruit brought into the palace and pulled in with a rope!"

"This is a good idea!" The Third Princess immediately agreed. Before she could speak further, Shui Ling hurried to say, "Princess, Shuicun's sha qima failed. Please go and give her some guidance."

The Third Princess impatiently went into the kitchen. Upon hearing this, she said, "I'll go change my clothes. In a while, let's go to the small garden for some refreshments and tea"

"Alright, I'll go take a look. Shaqima with milk tea is the best. In a little while, you can try some!" Jia Yin soothed the Third Princess and quickly returned to the side hall.

As expected, Mu Xu was sitting on the soft couch by the window eating roast chicken. Seeing Jia Yin enter, he handed her a drumstick.

Jia Yin smiled and said, "Oh my, is this the roasted chicken from that famous old shop in South City"

She took a bite and asked, "My older brother and his friends must have done well on the exam, otherwise you wouldn't have the mood to travel so far to buy roast chicken"

Mu Xu raised an eyebrow, smiling even more mischievously.

The young master and the sixth young master did well on their exams, and they have already returned to the Imperial Academy. Everything at home is fine as well. The eldest young madam is sewing a spring shirt for you, so you can wear it when you return home next time.

"The Shujin Beach is getting ready to plant, the village head is very busy leading the villagers to plow the land and tidy up the fruit trees. Grandpa asked me to tell you not to forget to prepare the gourd seedlings."

These things were trivial, but Jia Yin felt inexplicably comforted hearing them.

As they chatted, she happily devoured the chicken legs.

"That's when Mu Xu said, "When the young masters were in Gongyuan, someone deliberately spread rumors that Zhi Lan Palace had been sealed. "

The Lord and the Baron went out to investigate, they found out all the troublemakers and those behind them, and did not delay the exam of the Young Master and the Sixth Young Master.

Indeed, Jia Yin immediately frowned, wondering why she had felt like something was missing before.

It turns out that someone actually took this opportunity to cause trouble for the brothers.

Mu Xu poured tea for Jia Yin and advised, "The person behind this was from the Wen family. Mr. Wen has already dealt with it, and the Marquis also informed the Imperial College. No one will scheme against Young Master Eldest and Young Master Sixth anymore."

In the end, as long as you're doing well here, they won't worry, they won't be distracted.

Jia Yin nodded, understanding the reasoning behind it, but she was still not comfortable with it.

"My brothers took the exam, and I couldn't help them. Instead, I held them back."

The girl's bright complexion seemed to be covered by a layer of dark clouds, somewhat dim, which inexplicably made Mu Xu feel suffocated.

He wanted to advise, but his mouth wasn't working properly, so he quickly changed the subject.

"On my way back, I stumbled upon a surprising discovery. Let me tell you about it first, then I'll go report to Lord Hou."

Jia Yin tried her best to perk up, blinking with wide eyes and fluttering eyelashes like little fans. “What great discovery Is there anything new in the Xin Du”

"No, there's a secret passage in this palace leading outside. I accidentally found the exit!" Mu Xu boasted, tossing the orange in his hand and smiling, "I searched high and low, but it came to me effortlessly."

"Oh my, tell me, how did you find out Where is the authentic [something] located" Jiayin was extremely curious.

In recent days, because Shoukang Palace used the excuse of illness to close its doors, it was to secretly carry out some small moves. Therefore, not only the Emperor and Houye, but even Jiayin sent little foxes to go around, just to find out about the Empress Dowager's problems.

Whether she was secretly contacting the outside world, or had other arrangements.

Unfortunately, they came back empty-handed.

To everyone's surprise, Mu Xu went out once and unexpectedly stumbled upon the solution to this difficult problem by pure chance!

Today's update is here!n't resist beauty, especially when it comes to clothing and jewelry.Jia Yin was attracted by the silk fabrics all around her, and she couldn't help but walk forward and say to the housekeeper, "Uncle...
