Shen Xingmian prioritizes taking care of Xiao Yanyue and her maternal grandfather, entirely out of the habit of "respecting the elderly and caring for the young," but in the eyes of others, it is not the case at all.
Shen Yunting complained to her husband through gritted teeth, "Mianmian really takes good care of His Highness the Crown Prince."
They even used honorifics; it seems they're really quite sour.
Luo Qi'an found it somewhat amusing, gently took his wife's hand under the table, and soothed her in a soft voice:
"We already had a verbal engagement, and besides, I think Yanyue is a very good girl, and she's a good match for Mianmian."
Shen Yunting snorted before reluctantly saying, "That's true, but seeing him so thoughtful at such a young age, while our daughter is still foolishly taking care of him like a younger brother, makes me feel a little uncomfortable."
"He was born into nobility, and it's already been very difficult for him to fall to this state. As elders, we should be more tolerant, right?"
Shen Yunting sighed helplessly; she understood this principle all too well.
It wasn't that she didn't love the child; when the Crown Princess became pregnant, the happiest person besides the Crown Prince was her, her close friend.
She was also looking forward to the birth of this child.
Although they lost contact for many years afterward, her feelings for this child were different from her feelings for the other children.
"Hey, I'm just saying that to you. I love Yanyue very much too."
"Forget it, let's not concern ourselves with these kids' affairs. Maybe one day Mianmian will figure things out and become the one who takes the initiative herself."
Luo Qi'an thought about his daughter's personality and realized that what his wife said was quite likely.
He couldn't help but chuckle softly, a pleasant tremor traveling through their clasped hands to Shen Yunting, allowing her to feel her husband's emotions and prompting her to laugh along as well.
Shen Xingmian had originally thought that the first batch of roasted sweet potatoes wouldn't be enough, and that her parents would have some later, so they probably wouldn't be unhappy.
But seeing them suddenly laughing sweetly together, I thought, even if I have some, I won't give it to them!
snort!
They even showed off their affection, making other couples jealous.
hateful!
Look at my eldest uncle and aunt, how reserved they are. But my father and mother, she doesn't even need to look under the table to know that their hands are definitely clasped.
The roasted sweet potato in my hand doesn't smell as sweet anymore, boohoo.
Shen Xingyan, who had just tasted it, was already praising it incoherently: "Mmm, little sister, this is so delicious!"
Shen Zhiheng echoed, "Delicious! It's fragrant and sweet, and very moist, not dry at all."
Grandpa's appraisal is quite professional.
Shen Xingmian said proudly, "Of course, the variety I'm roasting now is called honey sweet potato, which is best roasted like this. The flesh inside will be as sweet as honey."
"Of course, it's all syrupy from baking, it's stuck to my hands." Shen Zhiheng laughed heartily.
When Shen Xingmian returned to the stove, she saw Xiao Yanyue slowly peeling sweet potatoes. She had already finished and handed them to Shen Xingmian when she returned.
Shen Xingmian was somewhat surprised. She knew that this child was not possessive of his food, but this child was far too lenient.
The roasted sweet potato smelled so good that he could resist eating it and instead peeled it and gave it to himself.
Oh dear, she was so touched. It was all worth the love she had for him!
No, I need to adjust my mindset in the future. I can't just be nice to him because of "respecting the elderly and caring for the young." I need to treat him as a person seriously and give him unique kindness.
After all, a younger brother as sensible as him is hard to find even with a lantern!
Shen Xingmian imagined the squealing, unruly child she encountered on the high-speed train. If Xiao Yanyue were like that, even if he used his status as the eldest grandson of the emperor to pressure her, she would never yield, much less be kind to him.
She hadn't been poisoned by feudal ethics, and she didn't have the awareness that she had to serve others even when she was unhappy. She would just say "screw it" and quit.
Fortunately, Xiao Yanyue is this kind of Xiao Yanyue, which is why she directly treats him as one of her own and takes good care of him.
Indeed, everything has its own destiny.
Shen Xingmian looked at Xiao Yanyue with the same satisfaction a big sister would show to her most capable little follower.
But that's all there is.
She's not a pervert, how could she possibly have any thoughts about such a young child? At most, she just admires him.
Before long, the small potatoes were cooked. Although they weren't as sweet as sweet potatoes, they had their own unique flavor and became more and more fragrant the more you chewed them.
In short, starch always smells very fragrant when heated!
Starch sausages, for example, taste terrible when eaten plain, but when deep-fried at high temperatures, they instantly become incredibly delicious.
Sprinkle some barbecue seasoning on top, and wow, the taste is something these people have never experienced before.
Hmm.
She realized she still had quite a few instant food products left in her space. She immersed herself in the space and searched for a while, and sure enough, she found several packs of starch sausages.
They have chicken, pork, and fish, so the selection is quite comprehensive.
"Come on, Daodao, help me out. I'll make you another delicious dish. Just follow my recipe."
Shen Xingmian used a knife to cut one end of the starch sausage, and then tore it open along the seam, and the starch sausage was completely peeled off.
Make decorative cuts on both sides, set them aside, and wait for the oil in the pan to heat up before frying them until the skin is golden brown. Even without barbecue seasoning, they are still very fragrant.
Shen Xingmian couldn't help but start to look forward to it with great anticipation.
Not only am I looking forward to fried starch sausage, which I haven't had in a long time, but I'm also looking forward to seeing everyone being conquered by the delicious food.
This era isn't exactly a culinary wasteland, but ever since she arrived, her family has been in constant turmoil, with no chance to properly enjoy the food and delicacies of this beautiful place.
In the future, she will definitely build the Northern Territory into a very prosperous place, so that even if she doesn't get rid of her status as a fugitive, she will still have a place to have fun.
In the past, Northeast China had several famous tourist attractions, such as skiing, ice lanterns, ice sculptures, and sledding...
Even though it's so cold in winter, people still rush there to play, especially people from the south who have never seen heavy snow and feel that they must go there at least once in their lives.
It was this kind of promotion that allowed several cities in Northeast China that were clearly unsuitable for tourism to develop.
Things are just getting more and more expensive.
Many video bloggers also boast about the low prices in Northeast China, especially in the morning markets, claiming that beef patties are only 60 cents each and tofu pudding is only one yuan a bowl, which is really outrageous.
Let's lure people over and kill them.
She's lived in a small, third-tier city in northern China for so many years, doesn't she know what the local prices are like?
Even she, a local who runs the cheapest morning markets in several districts, knows that those prices were from many years ago.
I have no idea how those people managed to take those photos.
That's absolutely outrageous.
