Situ Yue opened her eyes wide and said enviously, "Wow, Fourth Prince, you've made so much money in just one trip. It's so easy to make money out there."
"Haha, is that so." Situ Xiu laughed.
“.....” Situ Qing.
The three of them ate delicious food and chatted, and the meal passed quickly.
Situ Xiu stared at the third princess in amazement, secretly admiring her in his heart, what a big foodie she was.
"Why are you looking at me?" The third princess Situ Yueyuan glared at him.
"Third sister, don't move."
Situ Qing frowned, took out a handkerchief and wiped Situ Yue's mouth a few times, wiping off the grease in her mouth. His brows immediately relaxed and he nodded with satisfaction.
But she frowned again, her eyes fixed on Situ Yue's hands, and she said, "Go wash your hands."
"Oh." Situ Yue didn't dare to refute and obediently got up to wash her hands.
Situ Xiu smiled, but soon felt Situ Qing's gaze, and quickly raised his hands, smiling awkwardly: "Big Sister, look."
"Yeah." Situ Qing glanced at him.
My royal sister is so scary!
Situ Xiu breathed a sigh of relief. In just one meal, he had witnessed two different ways of eating among women.
The eldest princess was very polite and savored the food slowly, finishing a piece of potato in three or four bites. She was elegant and dignified, and she would wipe her mouth after each meal.
The third princess ate voraciously, chewing what was in her mouth, staring at what was in the bowl, eating one potato at a time, a typical foodie.

afternoon.
Situ Xiu took his eldest and third sisters to play in Xiuhe Village. They were both very surprised when they saw Arcanine for the first time.
When they heard him talk about the process of taming Arcanine, they were both shocked and looked incredulous.
"I named it Thanos, which means the overlord who destroys the world."
Arcanine: “….”
The third sister, Situ Yue, was surprised: "Thanos! What a domineering name!"
The eldest princess Situ Qing did not say anything. She looked at Arcanine and could not tell what was so powerful about it. However, it looked quite majestic.
The third princess wanted to ride Arcanine, so Situ Xiu let Arcanine carry her and stroll around the manor.
After playing for a while, the eldest princess wanted to go to the fields, so Situ Xiu took them both to the fields.
Seeing farmland and crops for the first time, the third princess was quite excited and had a lot of fun.
The eldest princess was observing the crops and seemed very interested in these new agricultural products. Along the way, she kept asking Situ Xiu about the uses of these crops.
For example: The peanut plant looks like green leaves. Can these leaves be fried and eaten?
Situ Xiu replied: Peanuts grow in the ground, and the leaves on top cannot be eaten.
Upon hearing this, the eldest princess's calm face showed surprise.
There are tomatoes, watermelons, strawberries...
We played until the afternoon, almost forgetting the time, and only returned to Xiuhe Village when the sun set and night was about to fall.
For dinner, there are steamed potatoes and meat, spicy potato slices, roasted chicken with potatoes, Kung Pao diced potatoes, dry pot potatoes, French fries, stewed potatoes with meat, hot and sour shredded potatoes...
"Wow, there are so many delicious foods. They smell so good."
Situ Xiu saw that the third sister Situ Yue's eyes lit up, she licked her lips, swallowed a few times, and looked like a little foodie.
"Third sister, you're welcome. Bring some potatoes back later."
Situ Xiu smiled and prepared ten tables of potato banquets in the evening, one for them and the remaining nine for the eldest princess's subordinates.
"The fourth brother is still the best."
The third sister Situ Yue smiled sweetly, then suddenly thought of something and said distressedly, "It would be great if I could stay here forever, so I can have food every day."
"No." The eldest princess Situ Qing's face turned cold.
"The Empress said that you are still young and are not allowed to leave the palace for too long. Today, you can leave the palace because I am with you."
Situ Yue curled her lips but did not refute.
The atmosphere was a bit strange, and Situ Xiu quickly said, "Eat some food, Third Sister. These are hot and sour potatoes."
"Mm, it's delicious, sour and spicy."
Situ Yue picked up the shredded potatoes and ate them with relish, then steamed potatoes and fried French fries...she ate faster and faster.
Situ Xiu was stunned.
This little foodie's appetite is twice, if not three times, his.
After the meal, it was dark outside and the three of them were full and satisfied.
"Fourth brother, the food here is really good." Situ Yue commented with satisfaction.
"Third sister, come often when you have time."
Situ Xiu smiled, and suddenly remembered something. He took out a stack of banknotes and handed them to his eldest sister Situ Qing.
"Big sister, this is money."
"Yes." Situ Qing nodded, took the money and put it away.
The eldest princess is very frugal with words?!
You should tell me a repayment date.
The corners of Situ Xiu's mouth twitched slightly. He glanced at the disappearing purse and cried in his heart.
After sending the two to the door, Situ Xiu chatted with them for some more casual conversation. He watched them walk into the sedan chair and saw the female general on horseback leading the way, with the armored soldiers on both sides following.
"Your Highness, starting next month, the manor will be on a diet." Eunuch Hai said with a bitter face.
Situ Xiu was stunned for a moment, then comforted him, "Don't panic. Watermelons, cantaloupes, and sweet melons will be ripe in July, and we'll have money again by then."
"Your Highness, what will be the price of these melons by then?" asked Eunuch Hai.
"Watermelons are a bit more expensive, 30 wen per pound, and the same goes for cantaloupes and melons."
Situ Xiu pondered and said that watermelon was a high-quality fruit in this era, so it must be more expensive. If he wanted to sell it, he would sell it to officials and businessmen to make money from them.
