Chapter 332: 332: Are You Humiliating Her?

After a moment’s hesitation, he turned his horse around and chased after her.

“Miss Qiao, get on the horse, I’ll take you to town.”

“No need.” Qiao Xiaomai flatly refused.

Hu Tian carefully observed her expression, thought for a moment, then dismounted and walked side by side with her.

He signaled for his caravan to follow, and while leading his horse, he engaged in conversation with Qiao Xiaomai, “Miss Qiao, the day you left, the head of the valley held a small banquet to celebrate the good wheat harvest. The dishes you prepared were emptied pretty quickly.”

“Especially that Buddha Jumps Over the Wall dish, such a big pot, it simply wasn’t enough to go around.”

“The two princes, who are used to eating exotic delicacies, weren’t amazed by abalone or shark fin, but when such ingredients landed in your hands, it was quite remarkable. I wonder what other dishes you can prepare, Miss Qiao.”

Qiao Xiaomai glanced at him and laughed, “Sir Hu, I usually cook homestyle dishes. As for that Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, it was a simple stew. You were there that day, you saw me just throw everything into one pot, no special techniques involved.”

“The dishes made by Zuixian Building and Jiwei Residence couldn’t match the flavor of yours, even after buying your recipe.” Hu Tian added.

“I didn’t hide anything.”

“Then it must be that those head chefs are not as skilled as you.”

Qiao Xiaomai just laughed and didn’t continue the conversation.

Seeing this, Hu Tian started to inquire again. Although Qiao Xiaomai is just a village girl, she’s a village girl who can earn a lot of money, and the recipes she comes up with have won the approval of both Emperor Yong’an and the Retired Emperor.

She can make money.

She can win favor in front of Emperor Yong’an.

And she is quite attractive, with a fiery spirit, fun to play with.

So, the princes evaluated her comprehensively and finally decided to offer her the position of a concubine.

Unexpectedly, Qiao Xiaomai didn’t fall for it, she rejected the offer!

No hint of interest whatsoever, none at all.

This is troublesome.

Money doesn’t attract her.

Power doesn’t seem to interest her either.

Money and power, the two most precious things in the world can’t move her. A little village girl, can’t be this hard to deal with, right?

After some contemplation, they quickly arrived at the town.

Qiao Xiaomai went to see Yang Ye, and Hu Tian went to find Yang Wang.

“Oh, a rare visitor.” Seeing Qiao Xiaomai, Yang Ye warmly welcomed her to sit and served her some tea.

Qiao Xiaomai sat down and without any small talk said directly, “My Lord, the contest last time, I won.”

“I remember.” Yang Ye nodded, “But on the day of the contest, I had an urgent matter to attend to, so I took a trip to the Prefecture City. I just got back, didn’t even have time for a sip of tea.”

“Then my lord should rest first.”

“No, no, I’m fine. Let’s talk while I rest.” Yang Ye leaned back in his chair, one hand holding a tea bowl, and said, “That Hot Spring Villa is worth about ten thousand taels of silver. We’ll split it evenly between us, and I’ll give you five thousand taels in silver notes, sound good?”

“Fine. But I have a favor to ask of my lord. I hope to use the five thousand taels of silver as a token of my appreciation.”

“Huh?” Yang Ye raised an eyebrow and started laughing, his dark and handsome eyes filled with interest, “What is it?”

Qiao Xiaomai then told him about Yang Wang’s visit and the gifts he had brought.

After hearing everything, a cold and mocking expression appeared on YangYe’s handsome face, “I’m sorry you had to see that.”

Clearly, his and Qiao Xiaomai’s views on Yang Wang’s actions were the same: it’s ridiculous.

If Qiao Xiaomai really wanted to be a princess consort, she would have flirted with him long ago, since he was still unmarried, and the position of chief wife was still vacant.

Moreover, Qiao Xiaomai is now a little fortune goddess. Those little gifts are simply nothing to her, it’s embarrassing.

With such a bother for a brother, Ah, there’s nothing he can do!
