Just then, Wu Yang brought over the bone broth and dishes. Upon hearing this, he immediately smiled and said, "Your Highness, this is food that the young master specially brought for you from Qingshui County. He said it's called a 'Mandarin Duck Hot Pot'."

As for the metal rack next to it, that's a barbecue grill.

As he spoke, his hands didn't stop. In a few quick movements, he placed the charcoal fire under the iron pot and the barbecue grill, and then put the bone broth and hot pot base into the pot.

The charcoal fire smoldered, and soon the domineering aroma of spicy and savory flavors filled the air at Lishuiju.

Yu Xiaoqing couldn't help but swallow hard. "Long time no see, you little rascal, you've certainly learned to eat!"

“This hot pot wasn’t my idea,” Xiao Jinhan said, pulling Yu Xiao back to the table and putting meat and vegetables into the pot with his chopsticks. “I was just passing on what I had learned.”

Yu Xiao looked at the bubbling soup base and raised an eyebrow. "If you didn't come up with this, then who did?"

"It was Hua'er's idea." Xiao Jinhan smiled and ladled the first spoonful of blanched mutton slices and greens into Yu Xiao's bowl. "Hua'er heard that Grandpa's appetite has been poor recently, so she asked me to bring hot pot and barbecue for Grandpa to try."

"Grandpa, would you like to try it? Is it to your liking?"

"Flowers? What flowers and trees?" Yu Xiao's chopsticks barely paused as he quickly put the mutton into his mouth, praising it highly, "Mmm, this hot pot tastes really good!"

One bite, and it's numbingly fragrant—so much better than that awful raw meat congee! Delicious! Delicious!

Your flower tree is quite clever, isn't it?

Xiao Jinhan looked up at him, her smile widening. "I thought Uncle Zhou had already written to Father, but it turns out I was mistaken."

A hint of unease flashed across Yu Xiaohu's eyes, then he raised his voice with a stiff neck, "You brat, you've forgotten your grandfather as soon as you have a girl. If it weren't for Lao Zhou's letter, I don't know how long I would have been kept in the dark by you."

It's just a letter or two, and you brat are using it to provoke me!

Wu Yang was sitting on a small stool grilling skewers, and couldn't help but smile.

There are only two people that the prince can't do anything about in his life: his young lady and his young master.

Within a few words, the other party had already revealed his hand.

Xiao Jinhan raised his hand and scooped another spoonful of blanched meat slices from the clear broth pot for him. "Grandson would never dare to talk back to Grandfather. I wonder what Uncle Zhou said to you?"

Yu Xiao opened his mouth wide and swallowed a large spoonful of meat slices. "Hmph! That big brute, all he knows is playing with rocks all day long. His brain and belly are just like rocks, he has no ink at all."

All they ever say is that a nose is a nose and an eye is an eye.

Saying it is as good as not saying it at all.

You brat, you'd better tell your grandfather honestly what that Miss Su looks like? How old is she? What's her character like?

You can't end up like your mother, marrying a heartless wretch like Xiao Hongyu, who ended up losing his life..."

Yu Xiao was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly felt that what he was saying was a bit unpleasant to hear. "What I mean is that I'm an experienced person, so you can give me a general idea of ​​the girl's situation so that I can help you make an assessment."

“I understand what you mean.” Xiao Jinhan smiled.

"Don't worry, Grandpa, Hua'er is a very good woman."

She never showed the slightest disdain when I had nothing and was unable to walk. Later, she went alone into the deep mountains to find flowers and herbs for me, but was swallowed by the Viper King and almost lost her life.

There will never be another person in the world who treats her grandson so well.

As for whether they are a good match or not, it is my grandson who is not good enough for her. If it weren't for Hua'er, I would only have half a year left to live, and my legs would never be able to stand up again.

Yu Xiao felt a pang of bitterness, but when he heard the last sentence, his tiger-like eyes widened slightly in surprise. "You mean, the poison on your right leg was cured by this Miss Su? And that Three Insects and Three Flowers medicinal ingredient was also suggested by her?"

"Yes." Xiao Jinhan nodded with a smile. "Hua'er's medical skills are excellent."

Yu Xiao remained silent for a while.

He knew very well how poisonous the Yellow Springs Poison was. Even Elder Xue was helpless against it and could only buy Zichen a year.

In the end, he personally went to Yunwu Temple and consulted Master Xuyun for a divination, who said that returning to the place where he grew up might offer a glimmer of hope.

Could the glimmer of hope that Master Xuyun spoke of be referring to Su Hua?

Wu Yang, who was standing to the side, was also somewhat surprised.

When the news of the young master's fatal poisoning arrived, his lord was deeply worried and fell seriously ill. It wasn't until news of the Three Flowers Antidote arrived that his condition gradually improved.

Unexpectedly, it was this Miss Su who was behind it all.

Therefore, Miss Su's medical skills are no less than those of the Divine Doctor Valley.

Yu Xiao put down his chopsticks and pondered for a long time, "Is the Wei family's affair this time also because of this Miss Su?"

Xiao Jinhan was not surprised to hear this. The people at the Yu family stronghold ultimately obeyed their grandfather. He simply pursed his lips and said, "Hua'er is kind-hearted and never makes enemies. Wei Jianjia brought this upon herself. I was just giving her a taste of her own medicine. This matter has nothing to do with Hua'er."

"Well, as long as you know your limits."

Yu Xiao nodded slightly, his tiger-like eyes darting around. "Grandpa's tired of staying in the capital all day. Why don't you take Grandpa back to Qingshui County with you this time to relax?"

Xiao Jinhan looked up and met the glint in his eyes, and couldn't help but chuckle, "Does Grandpa want to go to Qingshui County, or do he want to see Hua'er?"

Yu Xiao felt a little uncomfortable after being told that, and let out a soft snort from his nose, "Can't we have both?"

“Father, there’s no need for such a long journey. It takes at least seven or eight days, and sometimes up to ten days, to travel south from the capital to Qingshui County. A round trip would take almost half a month.” Xiao Jinhan shook his head and smiled. “Hua’er has opened a restaurant, and after a while, she will open a branch in the capital. At that time, will Father still worry about not being able to see her?”

"You brat!" Yu Xiao knew immediately that he was making excuses, and his snow-white beard bristled with anger. "Your grandpa isn't a monster. He doesn't eat children, and he won't scare young girls!"
