A Military Doctor Became a Stepmom in Ancient Times

270 Displeasure
The name sounded too ominous. Ning Yue’s expression was very ugly. She said to Jiang Ying, “I don’t care. I want to go with you!”

“No, that’s too dangerous! Besides, I have to set off early. Your master will come back then. Wait for him to arrive before going together,” Jiang Ying said.

Master again! Ning Yue suddenly felt that Jiang Ying knew the real reason why Gu Yu had left the Ning family.

“Why did my master leave?” Ning Yue asked him.

Jiang Ying’s expression changed slightly. In the end, he hid the panic in his heart very well. “I don’t know either. I just know that he went to the Miracle Doctor’s Valley.”

“You’re not saying anything either?” Ning Yue stared into Jiang Ying’s eyes until Jiang Ying’s scalp went numb.

He braced himself. “If I know, I’ll definitely say it, but I really don’t know.”

“Alright, forget it if you don’t know,” Ning Yue said. She didn’t really let Jiang Ying off. She was thinking about how to get information later.

Jiang Ying thought that Ning Yue would let it go and heaved a sigh of relief.

“I’m going to Fortune Pavilion for a walk. Go ahead.”

With that, Ning Yue turned around and left. She wanted to go to the Fortune Pavilion to look for Baili for two things. Firstly, she wanted him to pass a message to Yuan Hui, and secondly, she wanted Baili to be a taster.

At this moment, Baili was waiting for Ning Yue in a private room on the second floor of Fortune Pavilion. This private room was reserved for Ning Yue’s own use and was usually not used by outsiders.

There were too many people in the private rooms on the second floor. If she didn’t reserve one for herself in advance, she would have to queue up for food from her shop in the future. How unpleasant would that be?

Ning Yue specially let Baili experience her food today. Other than wanting Baili to taste it, the words she wanted to impart were also very important.

Baili was leisurely fanning himself as he stood in front of the window and watched the people coming and going downstairs.

He had heard about the harem of the Emperor of Great Yun. The matter of Consort Xian did not lack his help.

Although Yuan Hui was not by Ning Yue’s side, it did not stop them from protecting her.

Ning Yue went up to the second floor from the back door of Fulai Pavilion. When she stood at the door, she suddenly stopped and pushed the door open for a long time.

Actually, when Ning Yue stood at the door, Baili already saw her, but he did not turn around.

Ning Yue thought that Baili had not heard her and walked quietly behind him. She wanted to scare him.

Unexpectedly, before she could start, Baili suddenly turned around.

“Why did you react so quickly?!” Ning Yue was shocked by Baili.

“Your Highness, everything you instructed has been done.” Baili said.

When Ning Yue was in the capital, she asked Yuan Hui and An Ning to ask about Consort Chen’s cousin. She should have asked them herself, but time was tight, so she let Yuan Hui do it.

This was also the reason why Baili did not set off with them to return to Laifu Village. After Baili asked An Ning about it, he rushed back to the Ning Family Village.

However, Baili did not expect to be back a day faster than Ning Yue.

“Impressive, Baili. Thank you so much!” Ning Yue said.

“Your Highness, you’re welcome. This is what I should do.” Baili said.

“Alright, alright, alright. I won’t stand on ceremony. Baili, how about we eat hotpot together today?” Ning Yue asked Baili.

“What’s hotpot?” Baili asked curiously.

“You’ll know after you eat it. Remember to tell me how you feel after you eat it.” With that, Ning Yue went downstairs to prepare the dishes and got someone to prepare charcoal and a boiler.

This pot was the one she had instructed the shop assistant to prepare not long after the opening. There was a pot with a cover.

The stove was a simple stove. She just had to put the pot on the stove and cook the ingredients before eating.

Although everything was ready, she had never had time to taste the dishes.

Now that Baili was here, it was most suitable to try it out.

After Ning Yue moved everything to the private room, she got someone to put the soup into the pot. The charcoal fire was burning under the pot.

Then, Ning Yue mixed two portions of dipping sauce, one for Baili and one for herself. Then, Ning Yue sat in her seat and watched the soup boil in the pot.

“Princess, what are we doing now? Are we cooking?” Baili asked.

This was the first time he had seen someone cook like this. This was too novel.

“It’s not really cooking. I’m waiting for the soup to boil. I’ll throw the food in and cook it before fishing it out for dipping sauce.” Ning Yue pointed at the seasoning she had made.

Baili was very puzzled, but he did not ask.

In the end, the soup was boiled. Ning Yue said with a smile, “How about this? Cook the food, then pick it up and eat it with some seasoning.”
