“Yes, I think the red one looks good. It looks festive.” Qiao Lanlan was startled for a moment before she laughed dryly and agreed.

“Alright then, I’ll get my cousin to bring it to you later.”

“Sorry to disturb you when you’re busy.” Qiao Lanlan then left quickly.

The man only looked at them curiously and ignored them.

Qiao Lanlan returned to the kitchen. Although she was still unwilling, she was afraid she would be implicated and lose her life, so she knew she had no choice but to look for another opportunity.

Conversely, Zhou Ying had been busy cooking the entire afternoon. When she was almost done, Gu Chengrui and the Third Prince walked in together.

“Rui,” Zhou Ying greeted him. “Bring King Rui into the house first and have a glass of water. The food will be ready soon.”

“Got it. We’re not in a hurry.” Gu Chengrui replied.

After that, he brought King Rui back to their courtyard. The two of them first washed their hands, and then he poured a cup of tea. “Your Highness, do take a seat.”

King Rui didn’t stand on ceremony, drank a mouthful of tea, and then asked, “Are you really planning to move out tomorrow?”

“Yes, we’re almost done packing up there. The sooner we move over, the sooner we can settle down.

“By the way, we aren’t far from each other. Come over for dinner when you’re free.”

“I will. If you need any help, just let me know.”

Gu Chengrui hesitated momentarily and asked, “Can you introduce us to a few guards?”

“Recruiting guards is a small matter. The main issue is whether you have enough food for them?”

“It’s not a problem for us to eat sparingly until next summer’s harvest.”

King Rui nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll give you four people. We’ll talk about it later if more is needed.”

“Thanks.”

“Don’t treat me like an outsider. We’re considered family now. Oh right, when are you planning to hold the housewarming party?”

“I don’t plan to hold a grand one, especially when food is tight now. I’ll just call a few of our acquaintances and gather.

“As for the others, 1 intend to have our residence helpers make snacks and gift them.”

“Alright, as long as the etiquette is done, it’s all good.” The Third Prince nodded in agreement.

To be honest, the Third Prince’s two marriages would be enough to break the bank. The cost of holding a wedding was more than twice as high as in previous years.

The two of them chatted for a while more, and soon Zhou Ying and Granny Ma began to serve the dishes. They were steamed pork ribs, sweet and sour carp, braised pork, nine-turn intestine, fermented cabbage with meat, stir-fried radish, and a big bowl of egg soup.

King Rui smelled the fragrance of the meat, and his mouth started watering. He looked at Zhou Ying and asked, “Manager Zhou, when do you plan to open your restaurant?”

“I can’t say for sure. “Ingredients are hard to come by.” Zhou Ying replied after she sat down.

At that moment, Gu Chengrui could see through the Third Prince’s intentions because his eyes were fixed on the fermented cabbage with meat.

He spooned up some and placed it on the Third Prince’s plate. “If you want a change of taste, you can come over to our house.

“Try this. This is fermented cabbage with meat, combining the meat’s taste with the cabbage’s crunch. It’s delicious.”

When the Third Prince heard that there was meat inside, he nodded in understanding. No wonder the fragrance of this dish was so overpowering.

He didn’t say anything else. Instead, he lowered his head and ate quickly and elegantly.

After that, the Third Prince saw Gu Chengrui enjoying the large intestine. He picked up a piece and put it in his mouth to try it, realizing the dish’s deliciousness once it entered his mouth.

It was soft and tender, and if tasted carefully, it had all five flavors—salty, sweet, sour, spicy, and umami. The dish was fat but not greasy, and he would not get tired of it even after eating a lot of it. It was indeed a rare delicacy.

No wonder Gu Chengrui had been staring at this intestine dish. He must have more of this.

The Third Prince saw that Zhou Ying mainly ate the sweet and sour carp, so he followed her and tasted it. The sweet and sour taste was appetizing, and the fish meat was tender and juicy. It was scrumptious, to say the least.

He now regretted listening to his cousin’s urging and only eating hotpot and barbecue all this time..
