Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 1160: Chapter 1160: Sending a Gift to Yang Ye_1 Chapter 1160: Chapter 1160: Sending a Gift to Yang Ye_1 Having left the extreme flavor establishment, Qiao Xiaomai sat at the entrance of the carriage as they returned to the Palace, facing inside with her back against Tong Sanlang’s back, sighing continuously throughout the journey, “Those pigs are raised in Da’an Palace, fed and watered by Da’an Palace, so naturally, we’d have to consult Yang Wenxiao before doing anything to them.”

“Uncle Six seems a little obsessed,” Tong Sanlang said.

“Obsessed to the point of madness, do you think we should dig out Liuli’s suicide note and show it to him?” Qiao Xiaomai asked, “Knowing the truth about what happened that year, he should give up, right?”

“No, if he finds out we have the formula for gunpowder, he will be even more determined to rebel. Besides, the fewer people who know about your space, the better,” Tong Sanlang disagreed with Qiao Xiaomai’s suggestion.

“Then what should we do? If he’s harboring such thoughts, what if they slip out and Yang Wenxiao finds out, do you think we’ll get off easy then?”

“He won’t let it slip, the prerequisite for a rebellion is that his life must be intact. Without finding Liuli’s disciple and that strong backing, he wouldn’t dare take any practical action, even if the thought crossed his mind,” Tong Sanlang was quite open-minded about it.

At these words, Qiao Xiaomai couldn’t help but lift her hand to cover her face.

Yu Ang’s thoughts were so dangerous, like an unpredictable time bomb that could explode at any moment.

How vexing.

Upon returning to Da’an Palace, the two of them went to the kitchen to cook some food, and at the dining table, they brought up the matter of the pigs, to which Yang Wenxiao immediately said, “I’ll have Ren Zhong send over two right away.”

“Thanks to the Grand Emperor,” Qiao Xiaomai said in a hurry.

“No need for thanks. Those are originally your property, after all. Besides, the Emperor and the others can’t really appreciate the taste, it’s just me and the Crown Prince who can’t eat much anyway,” said Yang Wenxiao.

Qiao Xiaomai smiled and said nothing.

Yang Wenxiao continued, “By the way, Yeye has written asking why you haven’t continued to send him things. He’s been exposed to the elements outside and hasn’t eaten anything decent for days; he says he’s about to taste as bland as a bird.”

He laughed as he spoke, “I still remember last year when he brought in some chili peppers to show off his trophy. I’ve been preoccupied with various matters recently and completely forgot about him. Now that the peppers are harvested, make more chili oil and such to send to him.”

Qiao Xiaomai blinked and nodded, “If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have forgotten too. I’ll start making it right away.”

“Not just chili oil, but other dishes as well. If you can seal them in clay jars like before, make several different kinds. He hasn’t been able to return to the Palace even for the New Year and has been running around on his own for so long, he has it tough,” Yang Wenxiao said with a touch of familial warmth as he mentioned Yang Ye.

Having gone through this ordeal, he had come to recognize just how precious his family was. His good grandson deserved a proper reward once he returned.

“Alright,” Qiao Xiaomai nodded.

Yang Wenxiao could eat spicy food, but he was getting older and should stick to a lighter diet.

The few Emperors tasted everything the same; chili peppers were optional.

That left only Yang Hao, who wasn’t keen on chili peppers. Even if he was, if he knew Yang Ye wanted them, he would surely give them all to Yang Ye in a heartbeat.

There were about two hundred taels of chili peppers that were nearly dry by now and could be used in many dishes.

Thinking this, Qiao Xiaomai first made a jar of chili oil and then prepared a mala hotpot base with beef tallow.

At that time, there were few draft cattle, and the “Daqi Laws” forbade their casual slaughter. However, a couple of days ago, an old ox had died naturally and was sent to the Imperial Kitchen. She had prepared many beef dishes, which would come in handy now.
