Chapter 314 The sudden appearance of dried fish
She even felt that the Second Prince was too unrefined. He was still hanging around in front of Miss Xing'er in this image, which was really an eyesore to Miss Xing'er.
Another thinner maidservant tactfully brought a basin and a handkerchief and placed them in front of Yelu Qi: "Your Highness has been traveling all day and must be very tired. It's normal for you to have no time to take care of yourself. Besides, a real man should not be too particular about trivial matters!"
Yelu Qi felt very comfortable and pleased after hearing Xiaoxiu's words. He reached out and took the handkerchief from her hand, wiped his face and hands, and then slowly suppressed the embarrassment spreading in his heart.
I just sat down at the dining table, looked at the delicious food, and recalled what Xing'er had just said, but I couldn't muster up an appetite.
Xing'er saw him staring at the food on the table without moving his chopsticks, and hesitantly said, "Eat, why don't you eat? Can you finish it all by staring at it? Are you lying to me about what you just promised me?"
"Of course not!"
Yelu Qi picked up the chopsticks on the table, resisting the urge to vomit. He started eating the food on the table while thinking about how to talk to Xing'er so that she would agree to enter the palace to serve her father.
He felt that he could still deal with this matter for half a month, but after half a month, no matter what, she would have to enter the palace.
Xiaoxiu saw all of this, and her hand holding the basin of water unconsciously tightened. She lowered her head and silently retreated.
In Baishuiju, Concubine Ye's beautiful face was immersed in ink as she sat in front of a table filled with delicious food. At this moment, she wished she could rush to Shuixieju and strangle that vixen to death.
Since she entered the mansion, she had never been treated so coldly. As soon as she entered the mansion, she was given a warning. It was really good.
She looked coldly at Xiaoxiu, who had come to report the news, with a terribly gloomy expression: "Are you saying that His Highness cares deeply for her and almost always responds to her every request?"
"Reporting to the Concubine, I saw all this with my own eyes!"
Xiaoxiu was deliberately placed in Shuixieju by Concubine Ye. She had just seen it in Shuixieju and told Concubine Ye with exaggerated information.
At this moment, Concubine Ye was a little restless!
She ignored the pain in her hand and slapped the table hard: "I will go meet her tomorrow and see what kind of seductive tricks she used to bewitch His Highness so much that he lost his mind."
Xing'er had no idea what was happening at Baishuiju. She was staring at Yelu Qi until he finished all the food on the table.
Yelu Qi's stomach was so full from eating that he didn't even have time to say a few words to Xing'er. He just let his personal guards support him and left in a hurry.
Xing'er looked at him with a frown on her face and sighed. She could only take out two pieces of dried meat and chew them slowly to barely fill her hungry stomach.
The dishes in this house are not even as delicious as my own dried meat. I am so disappointed. It seems that there is really nothing delicious in this house.
She turned to look at Xiaowen: "Is there any fun place in your house?"
Xiao Wen was stared at by Xing'er's clear and innocent eyes. She blushed and her heart beat fast. "Xing'er, if you feel bored staying in the house, you can go to the back garden tomorrow!"
Back garden?
"What's in the back garden?"
Xiao Wen tilted his head and thought seriously for a moment: "Miss Xing'er, in the back garden there are Concubine Ye's favorite peonies, as well as the koi carp that His Highness carefully raises."
Xing'er nodded seriously: "Okay, let's go to the back garden tomorrow!"
After Xiaowen finished cleaning up, he closed the door and went out. Xing'er continued to practice taking and putting things down.
She produced a lot of small pieces of dried meat and put the things in the room back in. Her progress was rapid.
The only thing that remained unchanged was that she was trying to figure out where she had put her things, and all she could see was still darkness.
But she didn't know why, but every time at this time she didn't feel any discomfort, instead she felt very comfortable, the kind of comfort that made all the pores in her body open.
The whole person felt as if soaking in a hot spring, warm and comfortable. Even though I didn't sleep all night, I didn't feel tired at all.
The next day, Xing'er woke up before dawn and her stomach started to growl.
She touched her rumbling stomach, secretly found a place, dug a hole there, and wrapped the koi caught from the back garden with peonies to make a beggar's fish!
But the problem was, she didn't know how to make a fire. She tried for a long time but couldn't make the fire, and her face ended up looking like a cat's.
Xing'er looked at her hands in a daze. She always felt that someone should pull her up from the ground, help her wipe her hands, and then hand her the delicious fish.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but curl my lips.
Forget it, I'd better do it myself, so that I can have enough food and clothing.
She continued to squat in the corner and tinkered for a long time. Just when her patience was about to run out, she finally started the fire. She quickly buried the fish she had wrapped in the soil.
When she dug out the beggar's food she had made for the first time, she couldn't wait to take a bite, but ended up vomiting.
She gave the whole fish to the wild cat that had squatted next to her at some point.
After she finished cooking the beggar fish for the second time, she couldn't help but taste it again, but she always felt something was wrong. Thinking that there might be something wrong with her technique, she gave the whole thing to the second wild cat that came over after smelling the aroma of meat.
Isn’t there a saying that goes, failure is the mother of success? If I didn’t do well this time, I will definitely do well next time.
But by the time she finished the last fish, a group of little wild cats had surrounded her.
Xing'er looked at their round bellies that were filled with food and sighed. In fact, her cooking skills were quite good, but she just couldn't make the taste she wanted.
Just look at these little wild cats and you will know how happily they eat.
She wants to eat fish too!
As soon as this thought came to her mind, a small fried golden and crispy fish appeared in her hand. Xing'er stared at the small dried fish with her eyes wide open.
A voice in her heart told her that someone must be feeding her like she fed the wild cat. It was the same thing yesterday. She was thinking about how much she wanted to eat some dried meat, and then some dried meat appeared in her hands.
She saw the little wild cats surrounding her, all staring at the dried fish in her hand. Xing'er quickly finished the dried fish in just a few bites.
She simply opened her hands to show them.
"there is none left!"
The wild cats all meowed at her and were not as repulsive to her as they were to others. They simply surrounded her hands and licked her palms all over.
Then he meowed at her a few more times, as if saying goodbye, and then jumped directly onto the stone wall and left.
