Chapter 308: Was the Prince’s Mansion Very Shabby?

After Lu Sheng took a hot shower, she let the two children play while she returned to her room to catch up on her sleep.

When she woke up in the afternoon, she saw Lu Ran reading a book.

When he heard the door creak open, he glanced over and returned his gaze to his book.

Lu Sheng thought of the brown sugar peanut cakes and quickly moved a stool to sit beside him.

“Brother, have you eaten brown sugar peanut cakes before?”

“Yes, why?”

Lu Ran looked at her suspiciously, not understanding why she suddenly asked this.

“I don’t think I’ve eaten it before.” Lu Sheng pondered and said, “Does this thing appear every year during the new year?”

“Yes.”

Lu Ran nodded. “Most people will prepare this when worshipping ancestors.”

When Mdm He was around, she had made this before. However, Lu Sheng was still very young back then. She was only three or four years old. He was already six years old, so he still remembered.

Later on, because their family background was not good and glutinous rice flour was expensive, their family stopped making this.

Ever since Mdm Liu married over, they had not seen any types of flour, let alone glutinous rice flour.

It was not that they had not seen it before, but they had not eaten it before.

“Then why don’t we have any?”

Lu Sheng asked curiously.

Lu Ran flipped a page and replied calmly, “We’re poor.”

Lu Sheng was speechless.

No wonder she did not remember brown sugar peanut cakes from the owner’s memory.

“Today, I gave Aunt Yu some gifts. She returned me gifts and I ate a few pieces. Granny also asked Aunt Lian to bring a basket over.”

Lu Ran nodded. “Then, we’ll keep it for the new year.”

Lu Sheng thought so too.

She had loved eating food made from glutinous rice since she was young. There was once when she almost choked herself to death.

However, this did not affect her love for food.

“Second Sister ate more than a few pieces. She ate half a basket.”

Lu Jiang appeared out of nowhere and spoke with a smile.

“Since when?” Lu Sheng snorted coldly. “It’s only sixteen pieces.”

She counted them clearly.

Lu Ran smiled faintly. “How can you use ‘a few’ to describe sixteen pieces?”

Lu Sheng coughed guiltily and changed the topic. “Brother, my master might come to our house for the new year.”

Lu Ran paused in his flipping of the book. He sat up straight and asked with a stern expression, “Are you saying that the Third Prince is coming to our house for the new year?”

Lu Sheng nodded. “Yes!”

“No, is his mansion very shabby?”

Lu Ran contemplated for a while before shaking his head. “I don’t think so.”

“Does the Third Prince like to spend the new year in a shabby house?”

Their courtyard had not been renovated for many years. If not for the fact that the conditions were good this year and they could afford charcoal, they would probably freeze to death, like in the past.

Lu Sheng shook her head. “No.”

Although her master liked simple accommodation, it was definitely an elegant place. It was definitely not like the Lu family.

“In that case, why did he want to come to our house for the new year?”

Lu Ran could not understand.

“Of course, it’s because of me!”

Lu Sheng chuckled. “Master said that he doesn’t like the many rules in the capital for the new year’s greetings, so he wants to hide in our house.”

Lu Ran revealed an understanding expression.

He looked at his house and muttered, “Why don’t we go back to town for the new year?”

This place was too shabby and was not worthy of the Third Prince’s status.

Lu Sheng shook her head. “I’m not going back to town.”

“Why?”

“There’s no festive feeling when we’re back in town.”
