Shen Chuwei helplessly shook her head, "Your Highness won't allow me to buy."
If it had been allowed, she would have already expanded her scale, raising two more pigs and a flock of Dabai geese.
Lady Xu, the Concubine, expressed her incomprehension, "Why not allow it?"
Shen Chuwei gestured with her eyes, "Just smell the odor."
Full of doubt, Lady Xu took a few steps forward and almost vomited the moment she caught the scent.
So it was that smell!
"Not to speak out of turn, but as a distinguished Lady, there are better things to raise than chickens and ducks, aren't there?"
Shen Chuwei spread her hands, "Now you understand why His Highness forbids it, right?"
Lady Xu was stunned, and then it dawned on her. She coughed lightly, "His Highness's decision does make some sense. As a Lady, what don't you have to eat?"
"That's where you're clueless! This is what I call preparing for a rainy day!" Shen Chuwei said proudly.
