Candies were considered a luxury in the Ming Dynasty. Even if one had some at home, they would usually keep it well.
Su Yang did not ask the people in the kitchen, so he naturally did not know.
However, when Su Yang heard this, he thought about it and felt a little bitter.
He lamented that his wife, Zhu Tan 'er, was really bitter!
That little bit of black candy, and he still wanted to keep it like a treasure?
It could be seen that Zhu Taner's financial situation was not very good!
Su Yang transmigrated and was accidentally recruited by Zhu Tan 'er.
He also tried to understand his cheap wife.
In the end, he discovered a huge secret!
When the two of them got married, there were no relatives or friends present, let alone Zhu Tan 'er's parents.
Su Yang was also a bachelor, so their wedding was basically a formality.
In order to give Zhu Tan 'er a chance to celebrate, the Zhu family casually recruited Su Yang into their family.
The Zhu family's residence was not small, but it was not luxurious.
Other than the steward, there were usually only two servants.
There was a female chef and two kitchen helpers in the back kitchen.
Zhu Tan 'er had brought along a servant girl, Xiao Chan. No matter how one looked at it, she did not look like a young lady from a wealthy family!
In addition, Zhu Tan 'er's illness seemed to have been brought out of her mother's womb.
Su Yang imagined it and gave Zhu Tan 'er the identity of an illegitimate daughter of a rich man!
Such an identity could not be exposed, so Zhu Tan 'er basically did not go out and did not have any interactions with her neighbors.
After Su Yang married into the Zhu family, he also asked the steward what the Zhu family relied on to make a living.
In the end, he saw the manager say with a blank expression,"Making a living? We don't need to make a living."
Su Yang almost fainted when he heard that. He was even more certain that Zhu Tan 'er was an illegitimate daughter.
They did not have any property or land. Their family did not engage in production, but they could still make a living.
All the money probably came from Zhu Tan 'er's rich father!
It was naturally good to have someone to help in life, but Su Yang understood one thing.
Relying on the mountain to fall, relying on everyone to run!
In the end, he still had to rely on himself!
Although the Zhu family seemed to have nothing to worry about now.
But what if the rich man's first wife suddenly discovered Zhu Tan 'er's existence?
Or perhaps the landlord had gone bankrupt?
How was this family supposed to survive?
This wife of his didn't even have a piece of land to cultivate.
Su Yang was a person with a strong sense of crisis. He would definitely not place all his hopes on a man who had given birth to a daughter and did not care about it!
Therefore, after going out for a walk and realizing that candy was so precious, Su Yang had some ideas in his mind.
"Tan 'er, I'm going to experiment with sugar. What do you think?”
Zhu Tan 'er looked at Su Yang curiously." What does Husband plan to do with sugar? If it's for me, there's no need.”
"I don't like sweet food. The doctor also told me that my illness requires a light diet.”
"And that brown sugar looks dirty. I don't have much of an appetite.”
Su Yang grinned, feeling upset.
He could also tell that Zhu Tan 'er's illness was a congenital deficiency, a problem with her heart.
If this problem was in the modern world, it would be easy to solve.
But in Great Ming, it was definitely an incurable disease!
It was no wonder that Zhu Tan 'er was placed in a courtyard by the Qinhuai River by her rich father.
He probably also felt that Zhu Taner was not strong enough to be raised!
He might die of a heart attack at any time.
Heart disease patients, on the other hand, needed a light diet.
However, Zhu Tan 'er was different. She had been resting in bed and her body was very weak. Occasionally, she would have symptoms of low blood sugar.
Therefore, it was necessary to eat some sweets.
"Tan 'er, my dessert is different from others. You'll know when I make it!”
Before Zhu Tan 'er could speak, Xiao Chan could not hold it in anymore.
She jumped up excitedly and said,"Guye is going to invent something new again!”
"Miss likes this rocking chair you made very much. It's comfortable and fun to sit on!”
"If you want to make something new, Xiao Chan will help you!”
Zhu Tan 'er's personal maid was even younger than her and was at the age of innocence.
He was more excited than anyone else when he heard that there was something new!
"Alright, I'll definitely need you. Just don't complain that you're tired when the time comes!”
After Su Yang finished speaking, he felt a little itchy.
"It's still early. I'll go make it now. I'll try my best to let Tan 'er taste the delicious food today!"”
After saying that, he led Xiao Chan to the kitchen.
Zhu Tan 'er sat in a rocking chair and looked at the backs of the two of them. The corners of her mouth curled up into a smile, and she was in a good mood.
……
Fengxian Hall, Zhu Yuanzhang's bedroom.
At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang was lying on a rocking chair, relaxing his body.
He sighed and said,"This useless son-in-law of ours made such a thing. It's quite useful."”
Empress Ma let out a long sigh and looked in the direction of the Qinhuai River, her eyes filled with worry.
"Emperor, tell me, is what we're doing right or wrong?”
"Tan 'er was so young, yet she was placed outside the palace. Until now, she even randomly found a live-in son-in-law.”
"In my heart, I always feel sorry for Tan 'er.”
Seeing that Empress Ma was blaming herself again, Zhu Yuanzhang comforted her,""Sister, don't think like that!”
"Tan 'er was born weak. The imperial physician said that she wouldn't live past a full month.”
"But look at you now. Your body is getting better and better.”
Hearing this, Empress Ma felt a little better.
However, the child was the flesh that fell out of her stomach after all. As a mother, she naturally cared about her children the most.
"Bowen said that Tan 'er needs to be raised outside in order to preserve her life, so I reluctantly agreed.”
"But there's no need to be so anxious to marry her, right?”
"We haven't even investigated this Su Yang in detail, and the two of them got married without knowing anything.”
"If it weren't for the fact that Su Yang isn't a criminal, I wouldn't be satisfied with this marriage.”
Hearing Empress Ma's complaints, Zhu Yuanzhang felt helpless.
When Zhu Tan 'er was seventeen, her condition suddenly worsened and medicine could not cure it.
It was Liu Bowen who showed it to him again and used the trick of recruiting a son-in-law to boost his happiness.
He even wrote an hour, stating that the person who appeared outside the Zhu residence at this hour was Zhu Tan 'er's destined husband.
It was at that time that Su Yang stumbled to the entrance of the Zhu residence.
She was coaxed and tricked by the people of the Zhu residence into marrying Zhu Tan 'er.
In the eyes of Empress Ma's mother, all of this was ridiculous!
However, what was shocking was that Zhu Taner's condition improved on the second day of their marriage.
This made the Emperor and Empress of the Ming Dynasty feel helpless and could only press down.
After all, it was impossible to tell the truth about ghosts and gods!
Su Yang's appearance was just right, and it really did have a joyous effect.
Even if they had investigated his background and found out that he was only a craftsman, Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma could only acknowledge him.
Anyway, he was a live-in son-in-law, so it was not a big problem!
Moreover, the Embroidered Uniform Guards had sent news that Su Yang was very concerned about Zhu Tan 'er.
Not only did he often make little toys to make Zhu Tan 'er happy, but he also cared about Zhu Tan' er's health.
This also made Celestial Empress, who was deep in the palace, feel more or less at ease.
At this moment, the palace servant reported that the King of Yan had arrived.
