After everything was arranged, Lin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and exclaimed, "Now, all that’s missing is a signboard for the mansion."

Having said that, she poked Xia Zheng in the waist and told him, "Find someone with good handwriting when you have time. I want a signboard that makes a statement."

Initially, she hadn’t felt this way, but after just experiencing the incident with Yao Hanai, she suddenly wanted everyone to take notice. Now that she was in the Capital City, she needed to adapt to its ways and not embarrass herself, Xia Zheng, or Princess Anle.

Xia Zheng, however, disagreed with a grunt, "What’s the use of ostentation? Don’t worry about the signboard; I’ll get you a good one sooner or later! Don’t rush, someone will send it!"

Send?

Lin Yuan tilted her head and looked at him. In the Capital City, those who could send her a signboard were none other than the Xia family and Zhao Hongde. Indeed, if it could be personally inscribed by the Prince, that really would not be ordinary grandeur.

The chef brought by Princess Anle had already prepared the meal, just waiting to eat. Although the meal couldn’t match Lin Yuan’s cooking, it was still good, coming from an esteemed person of the General Mansion.

Naturally, except for the two most difficult to serve.

Lao Fan only took one bite before putting down his chopsticks, his mustache bristling as he grunted, "Old man, I’ve been gone for several years now; haven’t you changed the chefs here? This is truly awful!"

Xia Zheng also exceptionally agreed with Lao Fan, "Exactly, exactly, mom, it’s time to change that chef, what is this? Is this supposed to be edible? This is clearly for feeding..."

Smack!

Xia Zheng covered the back of his hand, glaring angrily at the culprit, Xia Zhen, "Why did you hit me? If you don’t want to use those chopsticks anymore, give them to me, I’ll break them!"

While speaking, he tried to snatch Xia Zhen’s chopsticks, but Xia Zhen wouldn’t let him get them so easily, and simply dodged with a quick movement.

Rolling his eyes, Xia Zhen hummed at Xia Zheng, "What’s this about changing people and driving them out?

That chef is the best in the Capital City, if we drive him away, none of us will think of eating again. "

Xia Zhen’s words stirred not a small ripple in the hearts of the Lin family members; they looked at each other, seeing sympathy and pity in each other’s eyes. So this was the best skill here? It turned out the Capital City wasn’t as good as imagined!

Even Xiao He quietly bowed her head, it seemed her grand ambition to make a mark in the Capital City wasn’t so hard to achieve after all.

Xiao Linshuang’s eyes blinked, and just as Lao Fan suddenly started to praise Lin Yuan’s cooking, she quickly stepped on his foot, desperately signaling with her eyes: don’t say it, don’t say it.

If they knew how good big sister’s cooking was, they might snatch her away, and then their family would be stuck with this rotten chef’s bad cooking!

Lao Fan’s eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly shut his mouth, the young wolf cub was more cunning; better not to say it.

However, their silence didn’t mean the others were unaware.

Princess Anle laughed, "You two used to love our mansion’s food, and just after not seeing each other for a while, you’ve started being picky?

Oh right, how could I forget, I remember Yuanyuan’s cooking was excellent, no wonder you’re not used to it now! "

Unexpectedly, even after more than a year, Princess Anle still remembered Lin Yuan’s cooking skills!

Hearing Princess Anle continue, "After I came back, I’ve praised Yuanyuan’s cooking skills in front of many people. I definitely need to have her cook for me again."

Xiao Linshuang and Lao Fan glanced at each other, their faces falling at the same time; it seemed more people would be competing for their meals soon!

Lin Yuan covered her mouth and smiled, saying to Princess Anle, "I didn’t expect the princess to remember, how flattering. I’ll definitely make a good meal for you to taste soon."

"And me," Xia Zhen clenched his chopsticks, dodged another move from Xia Zheng, and quickly remembered to include his own name, then looked at Tian Hui and continued, "and Huihui too."

Tian Hui’s face blushed with a happy smile. Who said warriors weren’t sensitive? She found Xia Zhen quite agreeable.

After the meal, Princess Anle reminded the Lin family to rest well before she prepared to leave. She asked Lao Fan before leaving.

Lao Fan sat firmly in his chair, did not even lift his eyelids, and waved his hand, "Old man, I’m not leaving. Wherever my disciple is, that’s where I am."

Xiao Linshuang knew her master’s real reason for staying wasn’t her. She snorted, "Master is lying, clearly wherever my big sister is, that’s where you are!"
