Chapter 231: Harvesting Water-Slipping Beads



As he spoke, he carefully observed the expression of his own prince. Seeing that he looked satisfied, he felt relieved. It seemed that what he said was right.

From now on, he should not consider himself as the prince's man. Given how much the prince values ​​Miss Shen, it is believed that they, his subordinates, would be more satisfied if they could please Miss Shen directly.

Lin Chen is indeed worthy of being the chief steward of Prince Chen's Mansion. He has a precise grasp of the wind direction.

After deciding on the future course of action, he felt much more at ease.

Shen Yizi probed his spiritual sense into the storage bag. It was almost full and clearly arranged according to categories. Although they were just small gadgets, it was clear that there was a lot of thought put into them.

Antiques, rare items, medicinal herbs, jewelry, food, toys, books, paintings... so many things.

Shen Yizhi smiled and said, "I appreciate your kindness. Manager Lin, please thank you all on my behalf. But you don't have to spend so much money next time. If you really feel bad, please help me find some seeds or seedlings of herbs and crops."

Lin Chen agreed and returned to his seat.

Xiao Yue and others stepped forward one by one and solemnly introduced themselves.

Shen Yizi felt helpless. Why did this scene look like she had just married into the palace and was familiar with the people there?

Moreover, although these people called her "Miss Shen", their attitudes made it clear that they treated her as the mistress of the palace.

Shen Yizhi could not deny that she was happy and delighted to be valued by Gu Xueting, but wasn't she still not married to him? It was not legitimate after all.

Under the table, she pinched Gu Xueting's hand, but he held it and played with it instead.

When it was Feng Zhixing's turn, Gu Xueting added a few more words: "Old Feng is the man my mother left to me. You can call him Uncle Feng."

After hearing this, Feng Zhixing looked at Shen Yizhi expectantly.

Shen Yizi glared at Gu Xueting, then quickly stood up and called out "Uncle Feng".

Oh my god, Mr. Feng is an elder, how can she deserve his gift? Gu Xueting is really something.

Feng Zhixing was very happy and said yes repeatedly. He looked as if he had found a treasure and Lin Chen and others were so overwhelmed that they could not bear to look at him.

Normally this old ancestor is very aloof, but now his personality is totally ruined!

"I don't have anything good, so you can play with this water bead."

Feng Zhixing handed over a small box the size of a palm.

He sent them off easily, but Qi Ming below was not calm, "Mr. Feng, it is said that if you have the Water-Walking Bead in your hand, you can walk into rivers, lakes and seas as if walking on flat ground. Is it true?"

Feng Zhixing nodded: "Not bad."

Shen Yizhi immediately received a lot of envious eyes.

Gu Xueting said: "Open it and take a look."

Shen Yizi opened the box, and inside was a black bead the size of a lychee. It looked like black iron, with scale-like patterns on it, and there were tiny holes in the gaps between the scales.

It was not what she had imagined.

She held it in her hand and it felt quite heavy.

She showed a look of delight: "Thank you, Uncle Feng."

"Well, as long as you like it."

After meeting the people, Lin Chen and the others dispersed. When they left, their steps were somewhat hurried, as if they were in a hurry to do something.

Shen Yizhi couldn't help but look at Gu Xueting. He scratched her face and said, "Don't think too much. Didn't you give them a big gift yesterday? They can't wait to try it out."

Among those medicines, there are barrier-breaking liquids specially used for breakthroughs and promotions, body-tempering pills for cleansing the marrow and strengthening the tendons, and hemostatic ointments for stopping bleeding and regenerating muscles... Since they are all made from spiritual medicines, both warriors and cultivators can use them.

Lin Chen and his companions had wanted to try it last night, but they held back because they thought the prince would definitely arrange for them to meet the princess formally. Now that they had already met, how could they hold back? When they came out of the palace, it was almost noon.

Shen Yizhi asked Gu Xueting to lead the way to the small kitchen in Hanguang Hall, intending to make a delicious meal for Gu Xueting.

The cooks inside were surprised and delighted to see her.

What was surprising was that I didn't expect this person would follow the prince here.

The good news was that they finally had the opportunity to thank Miss Shen in person. Although they were cooks, they were also lucky enough to be given a few spiritual fruits and a box of spiritual medicine.

That spirit is indeed not an ordinary creature!

Cook A's grandson had been coughing recently and the medicine didn't help. She happened to have two big, juicy pears, so she stewed one of them with rock sugar and gave it to her grandson to drink.

As a result, after my grandson drank it, he felt better when he woke up in the morning!

Cook B took the spiritual fruit back and shared it with her family. Although she had diarrhea after eating it, she felt much more relaxed, as if all the impurities that had accumulated in her body over the years had been discharged.

So she slept very well last night, all night long, and woke up in the morning full of energy.

The situation is similar for everyone else.

Several cooks gathered together and shared all the miraculous things that had happened to them, and they became more and more in awe of Shen Yizi.

Fortunately, Lin Chen had already issued a gag order, forbidding them to reveal Miss Shen's affairs to anyone. As for the source of these spiritual fruits and medicines, they were all blamed on the palace.

Therefore, the cook and the servants only discussed the gossip privately in the palace, and never mentioned it outside.

Those who are able to work in Prince Chen's Palace have all been screened through layers of screening. Those who are restless don't even have the chance to step into the gate of Prince Chen's Palace, let alone stay.

Those who stay have all gone through numerous tests.

In addition, there are few troubles in Prince Chen's Mansion and the treatment is generous, so the servants cherish their jobs very much and dare not make mistakes easily.

The current Prince Chen's Palace is basically an iron barrel that water cannot get in.

Gu Xueting said: "You all go down, I'll give you half a day off."

The cooks were so happy that they left happily.

Although they didn't know why the prince suddenly gave them a holiday, after working in the palace for so long, they had already understood one thing, that is, ask less and do more, and just do whatever their master tells them to do.

After the cook left, Shen Yizi looked around. Although it was called a small kitchen, it was actually not small at all. There were six stoves of different sizes lined up in the middle.

On the east side is a row of cabinets and ceramic jars filled with rice, flour, oil, sauce and the like. On the west side is a row of half-person-high counters filled with all kinds of fresh ingredients, arranged in an orderly manner.

There are two tall and large windows on the opposite wall, letting in natural light, making the whole kitchen look bright and spacious.

Shen Yizhi clapped his hands and asked Gu Xueting: "What do you want to eat?"
