Heaven-Sent Farm Girl Builds Her Fortune And Captures His Heart Chapter 549 - 548: Prime Minister’s Mansion

After staying in Liushui City for a few days, Shen Qinglan went to the bamboo house every day to teach Du Bingxue how to cook.

It turned out that smart people don’t necessarily excel at everything, and after a few days, Du Bingxue’s cooking skills regressed instead of progressed.

On the fifth day, Du Bingxue finally gave up on learning how to cook.

"Ah—I might as well focus on reading dical books." She looked at Shen Qinglan with a bitter smile and said, "I’ve wasted so many of your days in vain."

Shen Qinglan chuckled lightly, "It’s alright, I’ve almost finished exploring Liushui City anyway."

Once the rchants leave, this city feels like a dead city; there’s an eerie feeling with no signs of life wherever you go.

Shen Qinglan had no interest in such a place.

"I’m going back to Tingtai City tomorrow. Do you want to co along?" Du Bingxue said, "I can take you to see the sea."

ntioning the sea suddenly made Shen Qinglan crave seafood, "Are there fishern around there?"

"Yes!" Du Bingxue said, "The outskirts of Tingtai City are ho to fishern who make their living by fishing."

Shen Qinglan nodded, "Alright then, let’s buy so seafood at that ti, and I’ll cook for you all."

Three days later, in Tingtai City.

Compared to Liushui City, it’s relatively more lively here, with more people coming and going in the streets.

As the group rode horses along the street, passing by the General Mansion, Duan Yunfei raised his brows with a smile and asked, "General Fu, aren’t you returning to the General Mansion?"

"The General Mansion no longer belongs to ," Fu Junyan smiled, "I will return to the Fu Mansion later. Are you coming with , or going to the Pri Minister’s Mansion?"

"Qinglan will accompany back to the Pri Minister’s Mansion," Du Bingxue said, "I’ll go see my mother, and leave after I’ve seen her."

Duan Yunfei looked at Shen Qinglan, who nodded slightly. He quickly urged, "Take care of yourself!"

He trusted Pri Minister Du and Du Bingxue’s character, but with others, that was uncertain.

Shen Qinglan nodded, "Alright!"

Fu Junyan said, "Alright, we’ll et at the Food Sea Building later."

"Okay!" She looked at Shen Qinglan and said, "Qinglan, let’s go."

A group of n stood in place, watching the two walk away until their figures completely disappeared before riding away.

The Pri Minister’s Mansion was large, as Du Bingxue described, it practically occupied the length of an entire street.

Shen Qinglan stopped in front of the Pri Minister’s Mansion. A plaque hung high above the gate, with bright red lanterns hanging on both sides, and a stone lion standing guard on each side of the door. The vermilion doors were tightly shut, appearing solemn and dignified.

Du Bingxue jumped off the horse nimbly and stepped forward to knock on the door with the door knocker.

With a creaking sound, the gate was slowly opened by soone, and two guards dressed in uniform appeared at the entrance.

"Who are you?" Their initially serious expressions turned to surprise when they saw Du Bingxue at the door, "Second Young Lady, you’re back!"

Du Bingxue nodded lightly, then turned back to Shen Qinglan with a smile and said, "Let’s go in."

One of the guards hurried to inform Madam Du as soon as they entered.

Upon learning of her daughter’s return, Madam Du rely sighed softly and then asked indifferently, "You say the Second Young Lady brought a guest?"

"Yes, Madam!" replied the matron, "The guards said it’s a young lady, and the two seem quite familiar with each other."

Madam Du replied calmly, "First, have soone prepare tea and snacks. The Second Young Lady and her guest will arrive soon."

"Yes!" The matron turned and left.

Madam Du looked outside the door and sighed again, then called a maid to ask, "How is the Eldest Young Lady doing?"

The maid answered, "Madam, after the Eldest Young Lady returned, she had quite a temper, but she seems much better these past two days."
