It was snowing heavily outside, and the snow on the ground was getting thicker.
It creaks when you step on it.
A servant wrapped in thick clothes led a maid in a green jacket behind him and walked towards Yan Xi's yard.
At the same time, Yan Xi was half lying on the chaise longue, reading a book by the fire.
The attendant beside him stood quietly.
Hearing the sound of footsteps on the snow outside, he stood up.
QQ——
"Second Master, Miss Murong's Green Rose is here to see you."
"Let her in." Sure enough, just like in the previous life, the heroine sent someone to thank him.
Although... he didn't help, cough... he even made things worse.
But it’s also a token of my thoughtfulness.
"Yes." The servant pushed the door open and a gust of cold wind blew in.
Yan Xi shuddered and felt cold.
Seeing this, the maid Luluo quickly closed the door and bowed to him. "Greetings, Second Young Master Chu. When my young lady woke up, she heard that you had fallen into the water and had a high fever to save her. She felt guilty, but also grateful. She asked me to give these things to you as a token of my gratitude. I hope you don't mind."
As he spoke, he presented a few boxes, and the servant beside him hurried forward and placed them in front of him.
Luoluo smiled, "Sir, why not open it and see if you like it."
When the servant opened it, he found that it contained the finest bird's nest and ginseng, as well as some snacks and sugar cubes.
Luoluo smiled and said, "My young lady heard that the young master is afraid of bitterness, and he has to take medicine frequently recently, so she sent these. Especially the cakes and sugar are made by my young lady herself."
Yan Xi's eyes curved slightly, and he smiled and said, "Thank you, Miss. I like it very much. However, I also have something to give to Miss Murong. Please ask Miss Luluo to deliver it on my behalf."
When Luluo heard that he had something to give to Murong Xing, her eyes lit up and she quickly said, "This servant would like to thank you on behalf of the young lady."
Luoluo took the things and left in a hurry.
Yan Xi looked at the desserts and candies in front of him, his stomach full of greed. He couldn't wait to eat a few pieces with a happy expression.
As expected of a time-traveling girl, the desserts she makes are much more delicious than those here. They incorporate modern elements, are sweet but not greasy, and leave a lingering fragrance in your mouth, making you forget your worries.
It’s a pity… I can’t finish it all at once, otherwise it will be gone.
Yan Xi reluctantly put it away and said to the standing attendant, "Liu Ye, put these away and don't let me see them. I will eat them tomorrow. Remember, don't let the mice eat them."
Willow picked it up carefully and said, "I understand."
Yan Xi watched him take it away eagerly and licked his lips greedily.
Alas, as a foodie who loves sweets but cannot eat too much, it is really too hard.
Last year, he developed cavities because he ate too much, and his face was swollen and painful, making it impossible for him to see anyone.
Yan Xi was lying on the chair, and suddenly felt very cold. He sneezed and continued to read.
Little did he know that these things were seen by the people who were secretly following him, and they quickly reported it to their master.
Another hour passed, and Yan Xi's elder brother and father had almost finished dealing with the affairs of the court, and hurried back to ask about his well-being.
As soon as Minister Chu left, his elder brother took out a delicious chicken leg from his arms.
Yan Xi's eyes lit up, "Chicken drumstick! Big brother, you still understand me!"
Just as he was about to reach out to take it, his elder brother slapped his hand away and warned him, "The doctor said you can't eat meat. This is mine."
"..." Yan Xi's mouth twitched, "Then why did you take it out?"
Chu Junyao raised his eyebrows, smiled meanly, and bit him in front of him, "Oh, I just remembered that last year, when I was injured, someone did the same to me."
“…”
"Get lost." Yan Xi glared at him, "You really are my brother."
Chu Junyao finished eating in a hurry, wiped his hands, and pretended to comfort him, "Be good, in a few days, you can eat meat."
"Oh, it's so sad. Do you think I should eat sweet and sour pork ribs or beggar's chicken today?" Chu Junyao walked out the door slowly with his hands behind his back, looking sad.
Upon hearing this, Yan Xi became furious.
At dinner time, Yan Xi looked at the vegetable porridge on the table with a frown on his face, "I want meat! I want to eat meat, understand?"
Liu Ye shrank her neck, "Master and the eldest master said that you are weak now and can't eat meat."
Yan Xi drank a few mouthfuls of porridge angrily, but he really had no appetite, so he climbed into bed and went to bed early in a huff.
Sleep, sleep, you will have all kinds of dreams!
I didn’t expect that there was everything in the dream, the aroma of chicken legs, the fragrance of candied haws, and lotus cake!
Yan Xi licked his lips and began to swallow his saliva. He took a bite and actually bit into a candied haws. The extremely real feeling woke him up from his dream.
Then he saw Xiao Jingwen sitting in front of his bed, holding the food he dreamed of in his dream.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?"
"Do you want to eat?" He shook the chicken leg in his hand and asked with a smile.
Yan Xi blinked, swallowed the candied haws in his mouth, and sat up suddenly with a somersault, "I want to!"
Xiao Jingwen was a little embarrassed, "But the doctor said you can't eat meat, it's bad for your health."
When Yan Xi heard this, he became listless and sluggish. He curled his lips and said, "Then why did Your Highness take it out? You don't want to eat it in front of me and make people hate you, do you?"
Xiao Jingwen propped up his chin, moved forward, and closed the distance between them until they were only a fist away. Then he looked straight at him and smiled, "No, I just want to give it to you, but there is a condition."
His hot breath sprayed on his face, and Yan Xi's body straightened up, and he leaned back hurriedly, "W-what conditions?"
"Calling my name in private." Xiao Jingwen stared at him closely.
"Is that all?" Yan Xi was stunned. So simple?
"Well, this is it." Xiao Jingwen curled his lips, handed the chicken leg to his lips, and said temptingly: "As long as you call me, I will give it to you."
