Just when things were awkward, Princess Fuping began to mock him mercilessly, "Haha, you ate too much again. You're fatter than the last time I saw you."
Liu Tangxi smiled and said, "My princess is right, so I plan to have a light meal at noon."
As for Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, sorry, that's just empty talk.
Princess Fuping's smile froze on her face. For the sake of the food, she changed her words awkwardly, "My wife is...is...not too fat either."
Then, Liu Tangxi heard a very gentle voice coming from the carriage, "Zhenzhen."
Princess Fuping looked back and said obediently, "Mother."
Then, the nanny sitting outside opened the curtain, revealing the situation inside the carriage.
"Hello, Princess." Wei Hanzhou and Liu Tangxi saluted again.
Princess Jian looked to be in her early thirties, with fair skin and a gentle smile on her face.
"This is Mrs. Wei, right? I heard Zhenzhen often mention you. She likes you very much. I just said it without restraint. I hope you don't mind."
Such a gentle person, her words also make people feel comfortable. Moreover, she is a princess.
"You are too polite, Princess. The princess is young and cute, and I like her very much."
No wonder Prince Jian is dressed so elegantly, it turns out he has the princess with him.
After a few greetings, the carriage from Prince Jin's mansion drove towards the manor nearby.
"Did I eat too much?" Liu Tangxi sneered.
She just couldn't believe it. How could such a smart man like Wei Hanzhou be so bad at speaking?
According to the news that Yin had found out, Wei Hanzhou had regained the emperor's favor.
I guess he has flattered me a lot.
Someone who is so good at flattering actually spoke ill of her in public, which obviously was intentional.
Wei Hanzhou didn't say anything, and his eyes were very calm, without any trace of the attitude he had when he said something wrong last night.
Oh.
It is obvious that it was done on purpose, deliberately to discredit her in front of King Jian.
"Since I've eaten too much, lunch will be all vegetarian. You won't get any diced meat!" Liu Tangxi said harshly, turned around and continued to touch the tree.
Wei Hanzhou moved slowly and followed.
In the carriage, Princess Jin was talking to Prince Jin about these two people.
"I didn't expect that the eldest daughter of the marquis's family is completely different from the rumors." Princess Jian said.
King Jian thought of what happened on the way here, nodded, and said, "That's right."
"She cooks delicious food," said Princess Fuping, swallowing unconsciously.
"Zhenzhen, don't say in front of her that she cooks well in the future. She is the eldest daughter of a legitimate marquisate. If you say that, aren't you comparing her to a cook?" Princess Jian said.
Princess Fuping was not afraid of Prince Jian's cold face, but was most afraid of her mother's nagging. After hearing this, she did not dare to refute and said obediently, "Yes, mother, I know I was wrong."
Unexpectedly, Prince Jian interrupted, "However, Zhenzhen is not wrong, her cooking is indeed delicious, you can try it some other day."
Princess Fuping's eyes lit up and she looked at her father with a smile.
Seeing this, Princess Jian shook her head and said helplessly, "You, I just scolded you and you start to sabotage me."
However, she was also a little surprised. She knew the character of their prince. Even if it was to appease his daughter, he would not say such inappropriate words. It can be seen that the girl is really good at cooking.
Prince Jian laughed and held Princess Jian in his arms.
Liu Tangxi said that he would not cook meat for lunch, so he really did not cook. The table was filled with only vegetarian dishes.
But even though her dishes were all vegetarian, Wei Hanzhou still ate an extra bowl of rice.
Liu Tangxi was angry and somewhat proud.
In the afternoon, she went to touch the tree again.
Originally she only touched herself for half an hour a day, and since everyone said she was fat, she wanted to lose weight!
Wei Hanzhou stayed with her for a quarter of an hour before being called away by the steward of Prince Jin's mansion next door.
Seeing this, Liu Tangxi stared at Wei Hanzhou's back in a daze for a while.
Why did she feel that Wei Hanzhou was so close to Prince Jin's Palace?
By dinner time, Wei Hanzhou came back.
After dinner, Liu Tangxi returned to the small courtyard and asked about what he had been thinking about for the entire afternoon.
"Are you familiar with the King?"
Wei Hanzhou glanced at her and said, "Not very familiar with her, we've met a few times."
Liu Tangxi looked at him a few times, skeptical about what he meant.
Given Wei Hanzhou's personality, he would never bother others if he wasn't familiar with them.
Last time, he asked Prince Jian to deliver a letter to him. He must have trusted him very much, otherwise he would not have done so.
"How many sides? Two sides is how many sides, nine sides is also how many sides. The meanings are very different." Liu Tangxi said.
Wei Hanzhou kept silent.
Liu Tangxi didn't really want to ask about Prince Jian. Seeing that he didn't answer, she asked something else, "So what do you think of the crown prince?"
In the book, Wei Hanzhou supports the prince and is the most powerful military advisor on his side.
Seeing that his wife no longer mentioned Prince Jian, Wei Hanzhou felt a little better. However, the words he said did not make people feel that he was in a good mood.
"Ministers do not criticize their rulers."
hehe.
Liu Tangxi sneered.
"Do you support the prince in your heart?" Liu Tangxi asked again.
The crown prince is a loser, and the third prince is the final winner. Wei Hanzhou cannot stand on the wrong side.
"As a husband, I am only loyal to the Emperor." Wei Hanzhou said in a high-sounding manner.
After hearing this standard answer, Liu Tangxi was so angry that he couldn't say a word.
On the same topic, Yin told her everything she knew, in great detail, and even commented on the current emperor, prince and others in her words.
The two of them had a very pleasant chat.
Why is it so irritating to chat with Wei Hanzhou?
Pursing his lips and thinking for a long time, Liu Tangxi finally asked a question, "What about the Third Prince? What do you think of him?"
Liu Tangxi thought Wei Hanzhou would still evade her, however, after hearing her question, his eyes suddenly became sharp and he looked straight at her.
Liu Tangxi was frightened by Wei Hanzhou's sudden look.
After thinking about it carefully, it seems that I asked the right question.
Why does Wei Hanzhou look like he’s caught cheating in bed?
"What...what are you doing? I'm asking you a question, what are you looking at me like that?" Liu Tangxi glared at him unhappily.
Wei Hanzhou still stared at Liu Tangxi, then asked, "Madam, what do you think of the Third Prince?"
What does she think of the third prince?
After listening to Yin's retelling of what happened at the palace banquet that day, she naturally felt that he was extremely hateful, a hypocritical gentleman, and a real villain.
What right did he have to separate her and Wei Hanzhou?
What the hell.
He really doesn't have the aura of a prince at all. How can he be a male protagonist? He is just a villain from beginning to end.
"I think he ..."
What a bastard.
Suddenly, Liu Tangxi wanted to curse.
However, as soon as she said these four words, her mind cleared up.
The Third Prince was the hero of the book, the future emperor. No matter how bad he was, she couldn't scold him. She was just afraid that if she scolded him here, it would affect Wei Hanzhou's basic judgment of the Third Prince, and it would be bad if Wei Hanzhou turned around and foolishly dealt with him.
To her, the Third Prince was indeed not a good person, but she didn't know whether he was a good monarch.
The book basically highlights the heroine. The third prince is weak and a wife-protecting maniac. From the heroine's perspective, the third prince is naturally good in every way. But if you look at it from her perspective, she thinks he is very bad.
But she didn't understand how it would affect the people and the country.
If he was really a good monarch, she couldn't create an enemy for him just because of her personal desires, right? After all, the prince was not a good person, and his temperament was very cruel. Such a person definitely couldn't be the emperor.
She can neither harm Wei Hanzhou nor the people.
"I don't know him, so how can I know if he is good or bad?" Liu Tangxi said, "Besides, I am asking you, why are you asking me?"
Thinking of those rumors, Wei Hanzhou pursed his lips and said nothing.
However, his eyes moved away from Liu Tangxi.
If she has remembered her identity, then has she remembered her previous love for the Third Prince?
Liu Tangxi felt that Wei Hanzhou was being inexplicable, so she simply ignored him and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
After coming out, Wei Hanzhou was still reading.
Liu Tangxi walked a lot during the day and fell asleep quickly. She didn't know when Wei Hanzhou got into bed. She only vaguely felt that she fell asleep in his arms.
Because he had to attend the court very early in the morning, Wei Hanzhou left early the next morning, and Liu Tangxi didn't have time to get up to cook for him.
Before Wei Hanzhou came, Liu Tangxi didn't have such a deep feeling, but now that Wei Hanzhou came and left, Liu Tangxi felt uncomfortable.
After I opened my eyes and woke up, I looked at the empty seat next to me and felt empty inside.
Oh, she seems to want to go back a little.
This thought crossed my mind.
Soon, she regained her senses. Yin's illness had not yet fully recovered, the issues with the farm steward and the old farmer had not yet been resolved, and she had not yet finished patting the fruit trees. There were a lot of things waiting for her.
She could ignore these, but she would have to worry about the present. After returning to Beijing, she would definitely not be by Yin's side. What if it happened again? Moreover, making money would have to be put on the agenda. Rather than having to deal with the trouble later, it would be better to finish everything now.
Thinking of this, Liu Tangxi looked at Wei Hanzhou's pillow, buried his head on it for a while, then got dressed and got out of bed.
After dinner, Liu Tangxi prepared medicine for Yin and talked to her.
After talking for a while, she went outside to touch the trees again.
At noon, Liu Tangxi started cooking.
Thinking back to last night, she always felt that Wei Hanzhou was angry, but she didn't know why he was angry. He was seldom angry, and it would pass quickly.
He wasn't angry even though she had lost her memory, so I don't know what he was angry about last night.
Inexplicable.
However, no matter why he was angry, he was easy to appease.
Besides, he has lost so much weight recently, it's time for him to eat some more food.
Clearly she was still being petty and dissatisfied with Wei Hanzhou yesterday, but now that Wei Hanzhou is no longer around, she starts to remember all the good things he had done for her.
Wei Hanzhou's favorite dish is stewed eggplant with meat, and he seemed to have eaten a lot of stewed ham with meat yesterday.
Judging from his appearance, he seems to like eating meat.
In the past, my family was poor, so we didn’t have the conditions and we couldn’t see his true preferences.
Now we can't let him go hungry anymore.
So, in addition to eggplant stew and ham stew, Liu Tangxi also made braised pork trotters and mushroom stewed chicken. Eating only meat is not good, and nutritional balance is needed. Liu Tangxi also fried hot and sour potato shreds and mixed lettuce.
The main course included a steamed bun, a flower roll, and a bowl of noodles with some sauce on the side.
The soup is not easy to bring, so Liu Tangxi didn’t make it.
After finishing it, Liu Tangxi called Dongsheng over and asked him to deliver it to Wei Hanzhou.
At the same time, he was given some silver as hard-earned money, and was allowed to have a meal outside before coming back.
Wei Hanzhou was indeed still angry, especially after the morning court session ended, when the Third Prince called him over and spoke to him, he became even angrier.
He has been in a bad mood for the past half day.
However, just after returning from the Third Prince, he saw a familiar servant.
He remembered that this boy was by his wife's side and had delivered a letter to her once.
Thinking of this, Wei Hanzhou's anger suddenly disappeared.
"But it was your wife who asked you to come?" Wei Hanzhou asked.
Dongsheng smiled and said, "I have met you, aunt. My daughter was afraid that the food outside would not taste good and would leave you hungry, so she cooked a few dishes for you and asked me to bring you lunch."
When the other officials in the Hanlin Academy heard this and were about to go to eat, they all showed envious expressions.
Especially those who had laughed at Wei Hanzhou before, their expressions were even more interesting.
Speaking of which, these people have very complicated feelings towards Wei Hanzhou.
At first, they were very pleased with the fact that Wei Hanzhou's wife was bought, and they thought that Wei Hanzhou had bad taste and was very unlucky. Later, when they heard that Wei Hanzhou's wife was the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Huai'en, some people wanted to curry favor with him.
But more than half a month has passed, and it is said that the eldest daughter of the Marquis's family has not returned home at all, and has been staying in the mansion the whole time. Everyone is wondering whether the Marquis's family is not satisfied with Wei Hanzhou as a son-in-law.
However, today, the eldest daughter cooked for Wei Hanzhou herself and asked the servant to bring it to him.
This treatment is too good, isn't it? I'm afraid even the Marquis doesn't have such treatment.
When I saw the dishes in the lunch box, I felt not only sour but also drooled.
This girl from the Marquis's Mansion is such a good cook, the dishes are so delicious.
Thinking about the fact that the emperor often summoned Wei Hanzhou and that the third prince, who was very likely to ascend the throne, had just called him over, people felt even more sad.
Why is Wei Hanzhou so lucky?
Those who had laughed at Wei Hanzhou in the past were too embarrassed to ask for a free meal.
Of course, only some people laughed at him, while others were neutral or admired Wei Hanzhou's talent. Seeing Liu Tangxi bringing him food, he laughed and teased him a few times.
Regardless of everyone's reaction, Wei Hanzhou accepted all the food. However, he did not ask to share it with everyone, and walked to his seat with the food box.
Liu Tangxi had just handed Yin's medicine to her when Dongsheng came back.
"Has aunt eaten? What did she say?" Liu Tangxi asked.
Dongsheng quickly replied, "I ate it. My aunt liked it very much. She kept the rest."
Hearing this, Liu Tangxi smiled.
After that, Liu Tangxi asked Dongsheng to deliver lunch to Wei Hanzhou every day at noon.
After working for a few days, Liu Tangxi finally touched all the fruit trees.
Manager Zhang also collected the hawthorns.
Liu Tangxi checked all the hundreds of kilograms of hawthorn and had them transported back to Weijia Village.
Although Liu Luan was better than she had imagined and the situation was not as complicated as she had thought, everything was still uncertain. Liu Tangxi herself felt a little uneasy and did not dare to bring Wei Laosan and his family over.
According to her calculations, the hawthorns that Wei Hanzhou had someone bring over before he left were probably almost gone.
It is easy to find experienced farmers who know how to grow crops and fruit farmers who know how to grow fruits. There are experts among the villagers nearby.
Liu Tangxi offered a high price, so quite a few people came.
Seeing that these people were really working hard and had the ability, Liu Tangxi felt relieved.
More than a month passed like this, and it was midsummer.
The capital is in the south of Weijia Village, and it is a bit hotter than Weijia Village. Moreover, she has to wear several layers of clothes, which is not as comfortable as in the countryside.
Looking at the bright sun hanging high in the sky outside, Liu Tangxi was too hot to go out.
At this time, Yin had already sent someone to prepare the ice.
As soon as he entered his yard, Liu Tangxi felt a cool breeze, which was really refreshing.
Although there was no air conditioning in the Dali Dynasty, the effect of these ice cubes was really good.
Now that Yin is ill and can't be used, she is feeling much better here.
By the way, Yin's illness has almost healed. A few days ago, Marquis Huai En brought Doctor Fan to the manor to diagnose Yin's pulse and confirmed that her illness has been completely cured. Now she only needs to take one dose of medicine a day and rest.
Liu Tangxi naturally hoped that Yin could recover completely before returning, so he did not mention returning to Beijing.
Yin knew that her daughter would have to come home after she returned, so she didn't mention it.
After adapting for a few days, Liu Tangxi felt that it was not so hot anymore and started to eat again.
For example, cold noodles, various cold vegetables and so on.
Wei Hanzhou heard that Yin's illness was basically cured. He thought that his wife should be back in a few days.
However, after waiting for four or five days, no news came.
Wei Hanzhou didn't know that at this moment, Liu Tangxi was looking at the fruits on the tree and thinking about sales.
