C12 Come on Ning Xiaoman(last Part)
"You're back. Hurry up and get your food. If you're late, you won't be able to eat anymore."
The woman said to Ning Xiaoman without raising her head. She sounded like she was thinking for Ning Xiaoman, but Ning Xiaoman knew that she could take the food for her. It was just like when they were training, she would always come to fetch food.
Besides, he had just come back from duty. If he came back late, he wouldn't be able to eat. It was bad to have a room like this, but he was already assigned to it, so he wouldn't be able to hide.
"Oh, then I'll go get some food right now. I'll have to ask my elder sister where I can get some food. I've just arrived today, so I can't find a place to eat."
No matter how unhappy she felt, Ning Xiaoman tried her best to keep her voice calm.
"Of course I'm going to the kitchen. Can I go to the study to get more food?"
Ning Xiaoman felt like she was going to burst out in anger. What kind of person was this? Who didn't know that they were going to the kitchen, but where was the kitchen?
No matter how angry she was, it was impossible for Ning Xiaoman to start a conflict with the old man here on her first day here. She knew that he was not someone to be trifled with, so she decided to stay far away from him, ignoring her and going to ask around. She refused to believe that in such a large courtyard, there was no one willing to tell her where the kitchen was.
By the time Ning Xiaoman had found the kitchen and returned with her own food, the one inside was already taking off her clothes. By the time Ning Xiaoman found the kitchen and returned with her food, the one in the room was already taking off her clothes.
"Eat quickly, then sleep quickly. I won't be able to sleep if you light the lamp."
Although it was not too late, because it was the end of the new year, the sky was short. At this time, the sky was already completely dark, and the room was lit up by oil lamps.
"Oh, I know."
Ning Xiaoman had originally thought that she could sort out the events of the day and jot it down in her diary as if she was practicing her calligraphy. But from the looks of it now, her own thoughts could not be realized.
Picking up the dishes from the food box and using the dim oil lamp, Ning Xiaoman quickly finished off the dinner. In any case, the food was still pretty good, with meat and vegetables matching, allowing him to choose his own favorite dishes. However, he still went a little late.
Ning Xiaoman finished her dinner and searched around the room, not bothering to find the woman who had already gone to bed. She actually found a lantern, so she had to bring the food box back to the kitchen. However, just as she was about to leave, she was stopped by the woman lying on the bed.
"Take my food box with you and leave it at the door."
Ning Xiaoman glanced at the door, and sure enough, there was a lunchbox on the right. She hesitated, but she still picked up the lunchbox and held it in her hand. From start to finish, she didn't say a word.
At this moment, she had already left the outer room. Although there were no stars in the sky and it was already very dark, but every so often, there would be a lantern, just like a modern street lamp, placed on the side of the road. Although there were no street lamps, it still made one feel a sense of warmth in their heart.
When he returned to this room, which was still very unfamiliar to him, the oil lamp had already been extinguished. Ning Xiaoman held the lantern in her hand and shone it on the bed, but that person did not move at all. Ning Xiaoman had no choice but to hang the lantern by the door and light it up for herself.
She had never thought that living here would be worse than living during training. It was a cold day, and there wasn't even a charcoal brazier in the room. The food was pretty good, so it didn't make sense for the accommodation to be so poor.
"Hurry up and go to sleep. The Third Prince will be going to the study room in Yin and Yang. Don't be late."
Because of the cold, Ning Xiaoman was in the middle of daydreaming. Suddenly, she heard these words coming from the bed across from her. Ning Xiaoman really didn't want to bother with such a weird person, so she pretended not to hear it.
She secretly counted the time between her fingers. Although it had already been more than half a year, she still couldn't figure out what time Ning Xiaoman had told them, so she had to convert it to modern times before she could figure out, oh, it was actually four in the morning. The Third Prince was indeed a diligent person, and the lower his status, the more hardworking he would be.
Before dawn the next day, Ning Xiaoman woke up. She didn't know what time it was, but it was all due to the biological clock she had developed during training. She got some water, washed up, and went to the kitchen to get some food.
Ning Xiaoman was already starting to eat. Seeing that the other one was still lying on the bed without moving, she finally understood that he was obviously telling her to go serve the Third Prince early, but she was still lying on the bed lazily. Ning Xiaoman found it strange that with her personality, she had survived up till now in the palace.
