Chapter 101 Still vomiting?
"How come these yellow peaches are so good?"
Before reaching the yellow peach forest, Shen Lingshu had already seen the bright yellow peaches hanging on the trees from afar. When the wind blew, she could almost smell the peach fragrance, which made people swallow their saliva involuntarily.
"In all of Kyoto, the yellow peaches from Lingtai Mountain are the most delicious!"
Princess Lingzhao's face was filled with pride as she spoke of these yellow peaches. "My father knew I loved them, so he ordered them to be planted halfway up the mountain. He also instructed the farmers to improve the quality every year. Finally, the yellow peaches from Lingtai Mountain are the best in all of Kyoto!"
"There are not enough yellow peaches to go around every year, so I ask you to pick some in advance and send them back to your parents' home. It will definitely make you proud." Although Princess Lingzhao grew up in Lingtai Mountain, her father always responded to her requests, and her eldest and second brothers, the crown prince, also treated her very well.
"Then I'm grateful to Her Royal Highness the Princess for today."
Shen Lingshu walked closer and looked at the fist-sized yellow peach. Even before she put it in her mouth, her appearance had already won her heart!
"Let's settle my two little nieces first. Look, isn't that little tree house beautiful? It's so beautiful to stay here at night. The stars are so beautiful that you can just reach out and pick them."
Princess Lingzhao said excitedly that she would stay in the tree house for a while every year.
"Your Highness, there won't be any snakes, insects, rats or ants here, right?"
Shen Lingshu looked at the cabin. The surroundings were clean. She was naturally worried because she had her children with her. Even though they were wearing mosquito and insect repellent, she was still worried.
"Don't worry, the hut has been fumigated with mugwort, and snake and insect repellent has been sprinkled around it. It's very safe." Princess Lingzhao assured her, "There are only a few rabbits and pheasants here at most."
"When we catch them, we can roast them nearby and eat them. They'll be delicious!"
Princess Lingzhao was extremely excited when she entered the yellow peach forest. She kept giving orders, asking people to pick yellow peaches to give away, and to prepare wild rabbits, pheasants and other things to roast and eat.
"Master, it's clean inside, no problem."
Liusi entered the house and touched every inch of it to make sure nothing was wrong. She then fumigated it clean with mugwort, sprinkled insect repellent around it, laid down soft mats, and let the two young masters lie down.
"Smile, little master, you like it here." Xia Yu carefully placed his sister on the soft cushion. His sister smiled with her eyes curved.
"Children are happy only when they go out for a walk."
Shen Lingshu held her elder sister's and younger sister's hands, watching the two sisters looking around curiously, her heart softened, she said: "Do you like going out? Is it beautiful here?"
Shen Lingshu looked up and found that her elder sister and younger sister could just see the big yellow peach. She smiled and said, "Do you want to eat peaches?"
"Then you better grow up quickly, otherwise you won't be able to eat delicious peaches."
Shen Lingshu pinched her sister's face, which was soft, just like cotton. After pinching her sister, she wanted to touch her younger sister.
"master."
Xia Yu watched this scene and said quickly, "Auntie Hua has warned us not to pinch children's faces, as it will cause them to drool."
"I didn't pinch, I just touched."
Shen Lingshu withdrew her hand guiltily, and looking at the two sisters' chubby little faces, she liked them particularly.
“Concubine Shen, come quickly, these can be sent back to your mother’s home, take a look, aren’t they big and nice?”
Princess Lingzhao soon filled two baskets with yellow peaches. The peaches were as big as fists and full of peach fragrance. She exclaimed, "Your Highness, there are too many peaches. We can't eat them all."
"Your family is large, so you should give more to show your respect." Princess Lingzhao said, "Pick two more baskets so they can give them away."
“…”
Shen Lingshu was silent. Princess Lingzhao hadn't even married yet, but she was already thinking of ways to send things to her husband's family.
"Concubine Shen, come and pick peaches. There are guards nearby. My niece will be fine. Peaches picked by hand are not only delicious but also fun."
Princess Lingzhao's idea is very simple, which is to win over and please Concubine Shen, and help her when the time comes. How great!
Shen Lingshu couldn't refuse the enthusiastic Princess Lingzhao, so she picked yellow peaches nearby. The peaches were as big as a fist. A maid brought a clean basin of water over. After washing them, she took a bite...
Juicy yellow peaches with a refreshing fragrance and full of fruity aroma.
"How is it? I didn't lie to you, did I? It's super delicious!"
Princess Lingzhao said proudly, "Not everyone can eat the yellow peaches that fill the mountains!"
"I'm grateful to Her Royal Highness the Princess for the kindness she has shown me today." After eating a yellow peach, Shen Lingshu had to admit that it was delicious when it was fresh. From the moment it was picked to the moment it went into her stomach, the entire process took no more than half a quarter of an hour.
After playing for a whole morning, she picked many baskets of peaches. Princess Lingzhao enthusiastically helped her pack the fruits and said, "These two baskets are for your mother's family, and these two baskets are for the Song family."
Princess Lingzhao divided it properly. Shen Lingshu looked at the two baskets of yellow peaches sent to the Song family. They were obviously bigger and the fruits were of better quality. Shen Lingshu was silent: Princess Lingzhao was really generous and had no intention of hiding anything.
"Okay, now that the food is delivered, let's eat roasted rabbit!"
Princess Lingzhao went to the stone table and placed some delicate snacks and yellow peach juice on it.
The fragrant roasted rabbit and roasted chicken were served on the stone table, making Shen Lingshu mistakenly think that this was some kind of forest restaurant.
Sure enough, if you have money, you can do whatever you want.
After Shen Lingshu finished sighing, she turned around and saw Ling Zhaogong about to pick up her sister. She hurried forward and said, "Your Highness, the baby is still too small and her neck is not well developed. She can only be held horizontally, or diagonally or vertically. She will spit up milk and cry soon."
"Ah? Can you spit up milk? Cry?"
When Princess Lingzhao heard this, she immediately retracted her hand. She had been looking at her little niece smiling happily and wanted to hug her.
"That's right, Your Highness, it would be bad if such beautiful clothes were soiled by the child's vomit."
Shen Lingshu said, grabbing her sister's hand, and waved to Princess Lingzhao, "Aunt, I will play with you when I grow up!"
Shen Lingshu imitated her sister's tone and said along with Princess Lingzhao. Princess Lingzhao was not angry at all. Instead, she said happily, "Okay, when you grow up quickly, your aunt will take you out to play!"
Shen Lingshu breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that Her Royal Highness the Princess would get sick and insist on picking up the child.
"Nurse, please take the two young masters to drink milk. They are hungry too."
Shen Lingshu sent the two children to the small room to rest. She quickly changed the subject, "Your Highness, how did you make the roast chicken and rabbit so fragrant?"
"This is the chef that this princess specially hired. He makes these roasted pheasants and roasted rabbits. The taste is amazing!" Princess Lingzhao was instantly proud.
…
When encountering a wild boar in the back hills of Lingtai Mountain, the Crown Prince had learned his lesson and had no intention of shooting arrows. He waited for the Emperor to hit the first arrow and immediately praised him: "Father, your arrows never miss the target. Even if I try my best, I can hardly match yours!"
