"Yes." One of the servants immediately let go of Fusu and left in a hurry.
Fusu was supported by another servant and brought to the reception hall.
Fusu sat down and said to Cheng Xiaoxiao, "Please forgive me, my sister. This is my first time flying like this, but I'm a little uncomfortable."
Cheng Xiaoxiao shook her head, feeling rather guilty. "It's my fault. If I had known my brother would faint, we should have taken the carriage back."
Fusu was slightly embarrassed. "Imperial sister, I don't know myself, how could you possibly know? It's okay, brother is no longer dizzy now."
"Let's talk about it later." Fusu smiled. "This opportunity is rare. If you leave, I won't be able to fly even if I want to! I don't know how long it will take for me to cultivate to this level."
He finished speaking.
A small figure appeared at the door, about eleven or twelve years old. Cheng Xiaoxiao and Fusu turned their eyes at the same time.
Ziying had very good facial features. He had a pair of gentle phoenix eyes with slightly upturned corners, a high nose bridge, thin lips with obvious lip peaks and clear lip shapes, and a bit of baby fat on his face.
Seeing him like this, Cheng Xiaoxiao felt itchy in her palms and couldn't help but want to pinch his fat.
Cheng Xiaoxiao glanced at Ziying and then at Fusu, and found that the two were somewhat similar, especially in their elegant temperament.
She couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "As expected of Fusu's son."
Ziying walked to the center of the hall and bowed respectfully to the two of them. "Ziying greets father, greets aunt."
Cheng Xiaoxiao smiled like an aunt and waved to Ziying, "Come here, today is the first time your aunt sees you, I have prepared a gift for you."
As she spoke, she took out the gift she had prepared long ago for Ziying from her space and handed it to him, "Take a look at this. Do you like it?"
Cheng Xiaoxiao introduced, "This is a peep show. It can bring distant objects right under your eyelids, giving you the ability to see from afar."
"I don't know what you like, but it's not a big problem. I'll take you to the supermarket later and you can pick out what you like."
Ziying's eyes lit up.
Going to the supermarket?
He had heard from his father before that there were many novel things in his aunt's supermarket, and he had long wanted to see them.
Ziying took the peep show and immediately put it to his eyes to look at it.
He exclaimed, "Wow! This is amazing! You can see really far away. I can even see the butler scolding someone."
He put away the peep show and bowed to Cheng Xiaoxiao, unable to hide the joy in his tone. "Thank you, auntie. Ziying likes this gift very much."
Cheng Xiaoxiao smiled and said to him, "You're welcome. I hope you like this gift."
Fusu waved to Ziying, "Alright, sit down!"
After Ziying sat down, Fusu asked about his homework and learning progress as usual.
…
kitchen.
The cook put some hot pot base into the special cooking pot as the housekeeper said. As soon as she put the hot pot base in, there was a sizzling sound from the pot, followed by smoke coming out of the pot, followed by a spicy smell.
The housekeeper said anxiously, "Quick, add water, add water!"
Cook: “Oh…Oh oh!”
The cook immediately turned around in a hurry, scooped a bucket of water and poured it into the pot. With a "sizzling" sound, oil splashed in the pot. Then the cook added a few more buckets of water.
Fortunately, the cook didn’t add too much, otherwise the flavor would have been gone.
The housekeeper recalled the steps the young master had told him, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong, so he told the cook, "Go wash the vegetables first!"
As the water temperature rose, the aroma of the hot pot base gradually spread, making the cooks and maids who were washing vegetables swallow their saliva continuously.
"What is this? It smells so good?"
"I think just the aroma makes me eat more for breakfast."
"The taste alone is so delicious, this soup must taste even better. I really want to try it!"
The housekeeper listened to their words and swallowed hard, "Okay, get to work."
Housekeeper: I haven't even tried it! Go to the back of the line.
…
After a while, the housekeeper came to report, "I have met the young master and Princess Xingguo. Breakfast is ready."
Fusu ordered, "Bring it up!"
"Yes." The butler turned and shouted outside, "Bring it in."
Soon, several maids came in carrying a "copper dyeing furnace".
Copper dyeing furnace: usually composed of three parts: a base plate, a furnace body, and an open cup. It was an utensil used by ancient people to eat hot pot and dip sauce.
Cheng Xiaoxiao smelled the fragrance in the air and instantly understood what she was going to eat for breakfast.
Sure enough, when the maid placed the copper dyeing stove on the table, Cheng Xiaoxiao saw a layer of red chili oil floating inside.
Fusu explained, "If this thing can't be eaten directly, I'm afraid it would have already entered Ziying's stomach."
Ziying scratched his head awkwardly, "Isn't this the first time I've eaten something so delicious?"
Fusu smiled, "You're right."
Ziying: “…” Or you’d better not agree with it, it sounds weird.
The maids placed the prepared hot pot ingredients on the table and left.
Fusu said to the housekeeper, "Let's share the remaining soup base with everyone!"
The housekeeper couldn't help but feel delighted, "This is a treat for us."
He bowed to Fusu and said, "Yes, I thank you very much, sir."
Then he left the hall.
Quickly walking to the kitchen, the housekeeper instructed the cook, "Young Master, have everyone share the soup base. Aunt Li, please check how much soup base is left."
Aunt Li looked over and found that there was not much soup base left.
She said to the housekeeper, "There's not much left. Why don't we just cook everything we need to cook together? Then we can share it and have a taste of it."
The butler thought about it and nodded, "Okay."
Upon hearing this, Aunt Li immediately got busy with her people.
When they put the dishes cooked with hot pot base into their mouths, they were all shocked.
This thing is so delicious.
They couldn't help but speed up their eating.
They even used the last bit of soup in the pot to soak their rice.
Since it was their first time eating food with chili peppers, their mouths were slightly swollen from the spiciness.
Both the host and the guests enjoyed the hotpot meal.
After dinner, Cheng Xiaoxiao took Fusu and Ziying to the supermarket.
Ziying picked out a lot of snacks and some toys like guns and cars.
There was also a lot of selection of Fusu instant noodles, hot pot base, self-heating rice, etc.
Originally, the two of them only planned to take a little.
but……
The two couldn't resist Cheng Xiaoxiao's warm hospitality.
