The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 200

Chapter 200: 127 Group’s Favorite (Second Update)

The Marquis Residence isn’t too far from the Guozijian, so Mrs. Yao arrived there quite early.

Just as Gu Jiao finished washing up, she heard a knock on the door. She opened it to find Mrs. Yao, which surprised her.

Mrs. Yao smiled gently and said, “Did I disturb you?”

Gu Jiao shook her head, “No, I was already up.”

Mrs. Yao grinned, “You haven’t had breakfast yet, right? I brought steamed buns and brown sugar bread.”

The Residence was busy preparing for Gu Jinyu’s banquet. Mrs. Yao bought breakfast from a famous bun shop in Capital City.

“Come in,” Gu Jiao invited Mrs. Yao into the courtyard.

Xiao Liulang was up too, fetching water by the well.

Mrs. Yao had met Xiao Liulang a few times in the countryside. Unlike the Marquis’ stickler style, Mrs. Yao was quite pleased with Xiao Liulang.

He was handsome.

That was key.

He was also good at studying and was diligent.

Initially, Mrs. Yao was worried about their relationship due to their lack of consummation. But after observing them a few times, she found that they got along quite well—probably they just weren’t there yet.

“Mrs. Gu,” Xiao Liulang greeted Mrs. Yao politely.

As Gu Jiao called Mrs. Yao “Mrs. Gu”, so did Xiao Liulang.

Mrs. Yao didn’t mind the formality and happily handed the food box to Xiao Liulang.

Gu Jiao was about to head to the kitchen to make porridge but was stopped by Mrs. Yao.

While Mrs. Yao usually let her be, today is the birthday of both her and Gu Yan. Mrs. Yao wouldn’t let her work.

Mrs. Yao was quite accustomed to kitchen work; she occasionally made some snacks at the villa. She first prepared a breakfast of millet porridge before starting to get ready for the next two meals.

Room Mother was sent by her to buy groceries. Everything, including the quantity to buy, was listed on the shopping list.

This was the first birthday that Mrs. Yao celebrated for her daughter, so she prepared for a while and practiced every dish.

Everyone liked Mrs. Yao in the house, even the eccentric old lady was smitten with her sweets. Everyone was happy when she arrived.

After breakfast, Gu Yan didn’t have anything to do. He went to shuck corn, but that was stopped by Little Jing Kong.
