Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 634: Chapter 634: Why Yang Ye Doesn’t Get Married

“Prince, thank you for joking. What would you like to eat?” Qiao Xiaomai asked with a sweet smile on her face.

“I want plenty of fish and meat,” Yang Ye made his request.

Qiao Xiaomai nodded. After all, with the help of Spiritual Spring water, even if she ate large amounts of fish and meat, she wouldn’t feel sick.

“I want some new dishes,” Yang Ye added.

At these words, Qiao Xiaomai tilted her head slightly. New dishes?

What could she make…

“Go on, go on, although it’s still early, you should prepare as soon as possible,” Seeing her like this, Yang Ye felt slightly moved in his heart. He then showed a restless look and waved his hand to hint at Qiao Xiaomai to get going.

Seeing this, Qiao Xiaomai was confused by Yang Ye’s capricious behavior.

She hurriedly took her leave.

Though her relationship with Yang Ye could be considered good now, after all, Yang Ye was a prince. His mood swings were not something she could deal with. Better to avoid them.

Qiao Xiaomai followed Yang Ye’s maid back to Yang Ye’s courtyard. Seeing her figure departing, the old steward lifted his hand to stroke his beard, then said, “Your Highness, you’re already twenty-two, it’s time to get married.”

At these words, Yang Ye’s handsome face darkened immediately, “I haven’t met a suitable one yet.”

The elderly steward just chuckled and changed the subject.

Yang Ye’s marriage matter was rather complicated.

Firstly, because of Bai Zhi. Bai Zhi, for the sake of Yang Ye, would rather hate life and dread death. If Yang Ye were to marry, Bai Zhi would certainly commit suicide.

The former king of Daqi, also Bai Zhi’s grandfather, being the only king of a different surname in the country, had fought alongside the previous emperor to establish the kingdom. If his little granddaughter were to commit suicide because of Yang Ye, it wouldn’t be a good situation.

Fortunately, Yang Ye hadn’t met anyone he liked so far, so he remained single.

The second reason was due to Crown Prince Yang Hao.

Yang Hao was already thirty-two this year, having held the title of crown prince for over ten years. His son, Yang Zheng, was now thirteen and was a clever and quick-witted young boy.

Under these circumstances, although Crown Prince Yang Hao’s position was still stable, his situation was somewhat awkward.

Emperor Yong’an is in excellent health, being Emperor for another twenty years wouldn’t be a problem. By then, Yang Hao would be fifty, and Yang Zheng would be in his thirties. Hence, it was not impossible for Emperor Yong’an to directly pass the throne down to Yang Zheng.

Therefore, the current situation was somewhat complicated.

Due to these unspoken relationships in the royal family, Yang Ye had been acting like a foodie, appearing uninterested in anything else, so as to avoid suspicion.

If Yang Ye also held real power and married a noble lady from a prestigious aristocratic family, appearing ambitious and prosperous, it would undoubtedly make Yang Hao more uncomfortable.

Thus, for these two reasons, Yang Ye’s marriage had been delayed.

As an outsider, the steward couldn’t say much more.

Even if there was an undeniable hint of ambiguity in the way Yang Ye looked at Qiao Xiaomai, all he could do was slightly indicate it. He couldn’t say anything more.

Once she was in the kitchen, Qiao Xiaomai started thinking about new dishes while preparing others. Speaking of what’s new, it definitely wouldn’t be considered new if she simply stewed or stir-fried two things together. It has to be novel.

Actually, she really wanted to make the pork fat rice she made last time again. However, if she dared to use that to fob off Yang Ye, he would certainly be furious.

After thinking for a while, she saw some glutinous rice flour in the kitchen. She actually thought of an idea: rice noodle rolls.

As far as she knew, there was no such dish here. Since it didn’t exist, then she was innovating!

Once she thought of this, she started excitedly making the rice noodle rolls. The morning tea from a certain place in the future was famous all over the country with its wide variety of dishes. She had specifically researched it, and she could basically create all those varieties.
