Chapter 272 Pigs have brains, but she doesn’t
Nanny Gui felt that as people get older, they tend to forget things. She only remembered that the empress dowager said that the store opened by Miss Lin was called Lin's Something Store, but she had forgotten. She really had forgotten.
But I don’t have time to go to the Lin’s BBQ restaurant that the guy mentioned to verify it today.
Anyway, the Queen Mother's birthday is in a few days, and the prince is going to take Miss Lin there.
If it is not the same person, then next time she leaves the palace, she will go to this Lin’s BBQ restaurant to take a look and thank this kind girl.
When Nanny Gui returned to the palace, the second daughter of the Tao family was chattering beside the empress dowager. The empress dowager was sipping tea and was obviously too lazy to pay attention to her.
When the Queen Mother saw Nanny Gui coming back, she looked like she was saved.
"Madam Gui, you're back!"
Her little niece came for several days in a row, and whenever she came, she would talk to her intentionally or unintentionally about Miss Lin who was with Jing'er.
They said that Miss Lin was doing business in public, that she had cheated Jing'er out of a lot of money, that she was a country girl, and so on. But she just listened to them in one ear and out the other.
She has been in the harem for so many years and knows that these words cannot be believed completely.
After all, she knew what her niece was thinking about Jing'er, and just because of her gossiping, she didn't want her to become her daughter-in-law.
So noisy, not cute at all like when she was a child!
And with all these pearl hairpins on her head, does she think her head is a display stand in a jewelry store?
And there's this strong perfume smell on her body. I'm afraid if she goes to the toilet, the toilet will smell fragrant for three days.
"Queen Mother."
Nanny Gui bowed respectfully, then took out the salt and pepper biscuits and placed them on the Empress Dowager's desk.
"Oh my god, what is this? Aunt Gui, how dare you give this dish of food to my aunt?!"
Tao Linger covered her nose with a handkerchief, looking disgusted.
"I want to eat it myself!"
Empress Dowager Rong was filled with rage. If she hadn't had to maintain her dignity as an empress dowager, she would have really wanted to poke the long armor on her hand into her pig brain!
Oh no, pigs still have brains, but she probably doesn't.
"Auntie! I, I, I..."
Tao Ling'er tried to explain hurriedly, but her aunt's face had already darkened and looked quite scary.
"I'm tired, so you should go back early."
Empress Dowager Rong really didn't want to see her again.
Tao Linger had no choice but to retreat carefully. Before leaving, she glared at Aunt Gui fiercely. It was all the fault of this old thing!
After Tao Ling'er left, Nanny Gui opened the salt and pepper biscuits, called a few maids up, and used round fans to fan away the perfume smell in the room. She was almost intoxicated by it and cried.
Empress Dowager Rong picked up a piece of salt and pepper biscuit and took a light bite. The layers were crispy and crumbly, and there was a light salty and green onion flavor inside. It tasted very fragrant and not greasy at all.
Mmm~ the taste hasn't changed at all over the years.
"Mammy, have you seen Jing'er? I don't know what this child has been busy with recently. He hasn't been to the palace for a long time."
Empress Dowager Rong remembered the important matter, put down the pretzels, drank a sip of tea and asked.
"Prince Jing is not in the palace. As for Miss Lin, no one in the palace has said anything to me. But judging by everyone's reaction, they all seem to like Miss Lin."
Nanny Gui answered truthfully, and her mind unconsciously thought of the girl who helped her. She wished that girl was Miss Lin, the daughter of her own prince.
"The more Tao Ling'er slandered me in front of me, the less I believed her lies and the more curious I became about my future daughter-in-law.
I was originally thinking that Jing'er didn't like women, and even thought of forcing Tao Ling'er on him as his princess. Luckily, he found the woman he liked, and luckily I didn't promise anything to Tao Ling'er, otherwise Jing'er would have blamed me.
Empress Dowager Rong thought about what would happen if a troublemaker like Tao Ling'er became her daughter-in-law. Oh my god, she didn't dare to think about it. She couldn't think about it anymore. A chill ran down her back.
"Starting tomorrow, if Tao Ling'er comes again, just say I'm not feeling well and turn her away."
Empress Dowager Rong picked up another piece of salt and pepper sesame cake, which was even more delicious than the one made in the imperial kitchen.
"Yes, the old slave knows."
Nanny Gui replied that she had long disliked that playboy, who dressed up gaudyly every day. She wondered if her own prince knew that Tao Ling'er was with the Queen Mother recently, so he didn't come?
