The steward of the Prince Wei Residence responded readily, which left Bei Lingsu feeling a bit embarrassed, and she asked, "When will Prince Wei return?"
"There's no exact news yet, but judging by His Highness's temperament, he should be back when the watermelons ripen in early summer."
Bei Lingsu "..."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai couldn't help but laugh, "That's also when the crayfish are in season; he definitely won't be able to resist."
Watermelons could be sent to the construction site, but spicy crayfish couldn't be delivered there. If he wanted to eat them, he'd have to return.
The steward also smiled, "The canal is only in the initial phase, so it's a bit hectic now. Once it's on the right track, he won't need to monitor it all the time."
"His Highness has been working hard recently. I'll prepare some food in the next few days and will have someone notify you when it's ready for you to pick up from the Qiao Residence," said Qiao Xiaomai.
