Yam nourishes the weak and feeble, eliminates cold and heat pathogens, and invigorates the middle energizer, strengthens qi, and enhances yang.
Hawthorn is acidic and nourishes the liver and kidneys, clears away turbidity, and lowers blood pressure and lipids;
Job's tears clear heat and promote diuresis, benefit the lungs and strengthen the spleen;
Clam meat nourishes yin and replenishes deficiency, clears heat and cools the blood;
Fruits, vegetables, and soy milk are all good sources of dietary supplements.
Every dish is so delicious that you'll want to bite your tongue off, not wanting to miss a single bit of the good flavor. The fresh aroma drives away any blandness on the tip of your tongue, and every drop of the rich and flavorful soup shows the care and sincerity of the cook.
She put her emotions into it, which is why it seems so precious and delicious.
Xiao Lingchen's eyes flickered.
"These are all top-quality nutritional supplements. Xiao Qingwan has never studied medicine. How did she know about them?"
Fifteen minutes later, Xiao Shisan came to tidy up.
He glanced at the table and was astonished to find that Xiao Lingchen had eaten all the dishes in the lunchbox.
This is Xiao Lingchen, who has long suffered from anorexia, and he actually finished it all!
Xiao Lingchen was standing by the window, gazing thoughtfully at the food box. The coldness in his eyes gradually faded, replaced by a gentle look, clearly indicating that he was in a very good mood.
Xiao Shisan was thrilled and felt even more grateful to the young woman who had prepared this delicious meal.
Being able to feed Xiao Lingchen is a remarkable achievement, worthy of the gratitude of the entire Grand Tutor's Mansion.
"Have someone open the storeroom and look for anything suitable for a girl, whether it's a decorative piece, jewelry, or fine silk, and send it to the eldest young lady." Xiao Lingchen pondered for a moment, then added, "Is the second young lady also helping her out? We can't let her work for nothing, send her something too."
Xiao Shisan was not very happy.
Second daughter?
That second daughter who climbed into bed!
Should we give it to her too?
How could that be!
Xiao Shisan didn't move, and Xiao Lingchen glanced at him sideways: "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I'll go right away..." he said, bowing his head.
Alright, since the master said he would reward me, then I will reward him.
He was just a subordinate and could only follow orders.
The young lady prepared such excellent food this time, she should naturally be rewarded handsomely.
The governor who was promoted from the east last time presented a large box of top-quality pearls, each the size of a longan, which could be given to the two young ladies; also, when the imperial censor from Shu returned to the capital to report on his duties, he sent several bolts of the finest Shu brocade, with bright and vibrant colors, which would be perfect for the two young ladies...
And those snail-shell inkstones, honey and incense, coral ornaments, kingfisher feather headdresses—without a mistress in the mansion, they've all been gathering dust in the storeroom. Now it's the perfect time to make the most of everything…
As he was calculating and mentally adding up the rewards he would give, he suddenly heard Xiao Lingchen say, "Have the official documents that were approved yesterday been sent out? Have today's been delivered? Also, is there anything urgent? Come with me to the study."
Now we need to get down to business.
Xiao Shisan quickly agreed and followed behind him, hurriedly reporting on the matters Xiao Lingchen had inquired about. Finally, he frowned and said, "There is only one urgent matter: the heir of the Prince of Zhenbei is coming to the capital."
Xiao Lingchen asked, "The heir of the Prince of Zhenbei? Isn't the Ministry of Rites and the Court of State Ceremonies responsible for receiving princes from other families? The Minister of the Court of State Ceremonies is a relative of the Duke of Enguo, so he should be in charge of how to receive them."
He remembered this Prince Zhenbei.
The Prince of Zhennan's fiefdom was in the northwest, a place far from the emperor's reach. The local people were known for their fierce and unruly nature, which turned the Prince of Zhenbei's heir into a ruthless and unscrupulous man.
This prince was strikingly handsome, had a great fondness for fine wine, women, and food, and acted in an absurd and unrestrained manner, making him arguably the person the Court of State Ceremonial feared most when entertaining.
