After rebirth, she turned around and married the emperor's uncle and tore the scumbag apart

After leaving the palace, Li Jing walked aimlessly. Before she knew it, she came to the stall selling sugar-roasted chestnuts.

"Girl, you are here." The old man had a wrinkled face and his eyebrows were curved with a smile, looking very kind.

Li Jing felt much better and said to the old man, "Give me some sugar-roasted chestnuts."

The old man lifted the cloth covering the chestnuts, took out a portion of still hot sugar-roasted chestnuts from the middle, wrapped the chestnuts with his wrinkled hands, and handed it to Li Jing with slightly trembling hands.

Li Jing was stunned for a moment.

The old man noticed Li Jing's gaze and smiled helplessly, "This is what happens when you get older."

Li Jing has been dependent on her brother since she was a child. There are no elderly people in the family, so she doesn't know these things.

"Really? I thought you were sick." Li Jing seemed relieved and took the wrapped chestnuts.

She took out a silver ingot and handed it to the old man, who waved his hands repeatedly, "Girl, you gave it to me before, have you forgotten it?"

Li Jing then remembered that the first time she came here to buy chestnuts, she gave him a silver ingot and did not ask the old man for change.

"I forgot!" Li Jing's tense face relaxed a lot.

The old man seemed to see that Li Jing was in a bad mood, and reminded her: "Eat the chestnuts while they are hot, and go home quickly after eating. It's so cold, and your family must be worried about you being outside."

Li Jing thought of her brother who always bought her sugar-roasted chestnuts. She wanted to tell the old man that she had no family left, but she felt it was unnecessary.

People's sorrows and joys are not the same, so why ask for others' sympathy for no reason?

Besides, the old man is already very old, so it’s better not to tell him about such things.

Li Jing pulled the corner of her mouth and said, "Thank you, old man. I'll go home now."

The old man waved his hand, signaling her to go back quickly.

Li Jing was now standing on the busy street, her pretty face tense.

She didn't know which way to go.

Although the yard is still there, the person inside is not my brother. He is a person who would disappear for a long time without saying goodbye.

After thinking about it, she returned to the palace.

As soon as I entered the mansion, Lai Fu came over and said, "Miss Li Jing, the princess has people looking for you everywhere! Where have you been?"

Li Jing remembered that Su Lingyue said that she would not go out in the afternoon, so she asked, "What happened?"

Lai Fu said, "The princess knew that you didn't come back for lunch, so she asked the kitchen to keep the food in the steamer and ask you to come and eat when she saw you."

When Li Jing heard this, her heart warmed up, and something in her heart seemed to slowly melt.

"Okay, I'll go right away." The ice and snow on Li Jing's face melted away little by little.

When she arrived at the kitchen, the cook saw her and said hurriedly, "Miss Li Jing, you are finally back. We can heat up the food and it will be dinner."

As he spoke, he called on others to help take out the food from the steamer and place it on the table nearby.

There was millet rice, stewed pork ribs with potatoes, fried pumpkin meatballs, cabbage and tofu, and a dish of boiled chicken.

Li Jing sat down at the table and began to eat her lunch which had been left for noon. Her body, which had been soaked by the cold wind, gradually warmed up.

I picked up a piece of boiled chicken, dipped it in the sauce, and took a bite. The chicken was tender and juicy.

Li Jing is not a person who shows his emotions, but at this moment his eyes were a little hot.

Seeing Li Jing like this, the cook who was picking vegetables nearby asked hurriedly: "Miss Li Jing, is the food not to your liking? If not, I will make it again. I know more than a dozen ways to cook chicken."

Li Jing wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes, coughed lightly with some embarrassment, and returned to her usual cold self.

"No, the cooking skills are very good, thank you!" Li Jing said seriously.

After hearing what Li Jing said, the cook smiled and said, "If you like it, eat more. The princess has instructed that she will prepare four dishes for you every day for lunch."

"By the way, Miss Li Jing, is there anything you don't like to eat or are forbidden to eat?"

“I don’t eat fish.”

"Okay, from now on, I'll have food delivered to your room every noon."

The cook said with a smile, and added, "The princess said that we can't let you be abducted by a man just for a little food."

Li Jing paused while biting the chicken and her eyebrows twitched.

How could she be kidnapped by a man just for a little food!

Li Jing was originally very touched by Su Lingyue's behavior today.

At this moment, she just wanted to put the sword on Su Lingyue's neck and scare her severely!
