Chapter 976: Chapter 636: Sisters Reunite, Testing Shen Top Scholar?_2

Although it would be sad, the kind of affection she wanted wasn’t like that.

Feng Wuyou suggested, "Let’s go out and have some fun."

Actually, she wanted to go out for a stroll, buy some delicious food. It had been a long time since she had tasted street food, and she was really craving it.

Xun Qingqing’s eyes lit up, "Sure, let’s go for a walk first, then accompany Tao Minmin to meet the Top Scholar Song."

Tao Minmin hesitated, "Wouldn’t that be too much?"

Xun Qingqing said seriously, "What’s the big deal? Song Top Scholar is a learned man. My elder brother says that scholars can be a bit old-fashioned and rigid in their behavior; I think Song Top Scholar is just like that. We’re going to give him a little nudge. If he takes an interest in you, won’t that be even better? If he has no interest, it’s better to recognize that early and move on, finding another good match is the most important thing."

Tao Minmin still hesitated a bit.

Feng Wuyou and the others left the General Residence and made their way directly to the bustling Champine Street.

On Champine Street in winter, there were quite a few people, all wrapped up tightly.

The vendors braved the cold wind, energetically calling out for customers.

Feng Wuyou spotted Meat Patties from a distance and pulled the others over.

Pointing at the freshly cooked patties still steaming from the pot, she said to the Boss, "Give me four Meat Patties."

"Alright!" The Boss deftly pulled out dry lotus leaves and wrapped up four servings, handing them to Feng Wuyou.

Chun Xi took out a purse and paid forty copper coins.

Feng Wuyou distributed the Meat Patties to Xun Qingqing and Tao Minmin, as well as Chun Xi.

Each person held a Meat Patty, eating while they continued to walk.

Chun Xi followed with her hot Meat Patty. After taking a bite, she found it especially delicious. After a couple of bites, she suddenly turned her head and saw Qin Xiao following leisurely behind them.

The Crown Princess was out today, and Qin Xiao was tasked with ensuring the Crown Princess’s safety by Your Highness.

Qin Xiao was currently on duty and couldn’t come forward to disturb them, lest he become distracted.

Qin Xiao noticed Chun Xi looking back at him. Normally, he would have already moved closer, but his duty prevented him from betraying the trust his Master placed in him.

Chun Xi knew Qin Xiao was watching her. Her husband, while on duty, had a much more stern expression compared to the one he had in the boudoir, a look so serious and aloof that it was hard to tell they were husband and wife.

Since their marriage, they had gotten along harmoniously, and he was stationed quite close by.

Although Qin Xiao sometimes stayed away because of his official duties, she still felt very happy.

Because Qin Xiao was truly good to her.

Chun Xi turned her gaze away and happily continued munching on her Meat Patty.

Feng Wuyou finished the Meat Patty in her hand quite quickly and, passing by a Pastry Shop selling tea pastries, couldn’t help but walk in. Pointing to the tea pastries inside, she waved her hand generously, "I want them all."

The Shop assistant was stunned for a couple of seconds, then quickly began to pack with excitement.

Feng Wuyou instructed, "Pack them separately, each variety paired up."

"Got it, madam." Seeing Feng Wuyou’s coiffed hair, the Shop assistant knew the beauty in front of him was already a married woman and instantly understood the meaning of her words, and began repacking.

Xun Qingqing couldn’t help but ask, "Buying so much, can you finish it all?"

"I’ll take some back home. The two little ones will surely love them too. Susu has a sweet tooth; she can polish off three in one go. The servants can have some too, and then there’s my mother; she also likes these pastries," Feng Wuyou replied.

The mother she referred to here was the Empress. Outside the palace, they couldn’t refer to her as the Empress, only as the mother.

Hearing the Crown Princess say this, Xun Qingqing thought they would soon finish these tea pastries.

The Crown Princess was the kind of person who, if treated well by others, would treat others generously in return.

The maids and servants in Hehuan Hall were dedicated and served her wholeheartedly, so the Crown Princess treated them well in return. They were all very loyal, making it difficult for others to bribe them.

Chun Xi paid the silver, but there were too many tea pastries for one person to carry. Before she could speak, Qin Xiao had already stepped forward, taking the tea pastries from Chun Xi’s hand and the counter in a single motion.

"Just give them all to me."

Chun Xi looked up at Qin Xiao. Although straightforward and somewhat simple-minded, sometimes he was also very thoughtful.

There were a few more scattered tea pastries, which Feng Wuyou and the others ate along the way.

The tea pastries weren’t big, and Feng Wuyou finished three rather quickly, still feeling a little unsatisfied.

They passed by pancake stalls... sweet shops...

Feng Wuyou walked and ate the whole way, wanting to eat whenever she saw delicious food.

Xun Qingqing and Tao Minmin were different. Although they were also greedy for food, they had eaten so much along the way that they were fully satisfied.

They didn’t even eat the sweets.

Feng Wuyou held two skewers of Candied Haw and also bought a few to take home for the two little ones to try.
