"Wine, there are only delicious food but no good wine." Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Qingrui expectantly.
The corner of Zhao Qingrui's mouth twitched, and he ordered Chunxi, "Go get some wine."
It seems that Dad has abstained from drinking for quite some time. He has lost a lot of weight and become stronger now. It's okay for him to drink a little now.
Seeing that his daughter agreed, Ying Zheng immediately relaxed and smiled more.
The dinner in the evening was enjoyed by everyone.
"I asked someone to make beef jerky with the remaining meat and will send it to you in a few days." He rubbed his stomach and felt a little full. He hadn't eaten so much in a long time.
"Aunt, when can I eat it?" When Ziying heard Zhao Qingrui's words, the juice in his hand no longer smelled good, and he looked at Zhao Qingrui intently.
Zhao Qingrui had given them beef jerky before, and ever since he ate it, he has been missing the taste.
Although he is young, he knows that beef cannot be eaten casually.
Even though they lived in the palace, they didn't have many opportunities to eat beef.
Ever since his aunt came back, the quality of food in the palace has skyrocketed. He likes his aunt so much.
"I don't know either. I'll send it to you when it's done, little greedy cat." Zhao Qingrui said with a smile. This is Daqin, and there are no modern dryers. It takes a lot of time to dry the beef.
Fusu smiled aside, his little sister was very popular with these children.
When he first knew his little sister had returned, he was worried that she wouldn't be able to integrate with all the brothers and sisters. He didn't expect that his thoughts were unnecessary.
"Sister, please give him less snacks. He is only thinking about your snacks and doesn't eat much of the food in Yichun Palace." Wang Xia felt a headache when she talked about this.
He often comes to Zhao Qingrui's place to eat. The food there is much more delicious than that in Yichun Palace, which makes this kid start to become picky about food.
"It's okay. I'll eat everything after skipping two meals." Ying Zheng glanced at Ziying indifferently.
If he hadn't heard about this boy's deeds from his daughter, he wouldn't have paid much attention to him.
Of course, it's just a matter of looking at the brighter side.
Now his preferred heir is Zhao Qingrui, and this kid will definitely have no place in the future.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will take good care of Ziying when I go back." Fusu agreed seriously.

"Your Highness, the strawberries you asked people to plant have turned red." Two days later, Chunxi came to report to her about the strawberries.
"Really?" Zhao Qingrui's eyes suddenly lit up. The strawberries given by the system grew really fast. They were fully grown in just over three months.
"Help me prepare clothes for going out. I want to go and take a look myself." Zhao Qingrui immediately stopped lying down and stood up. "By the way, invite Sister Yin Man to come too, as well as Wang Xian and Meng Yu."
Now that it was ready to eat, she decided to go and see for herself.
When Zhao Qingrui left the palace, Wang Xian and others were already waiting for her at the palace gate.
"Sister, you've been waiting for a long time." Zhao Qingrui smiled embarrassedly.
"No, we just got here. I heard that the strawberries you planted are ripe. I have been keeping them in mind. I will definitely eat more later." Yin Man said expectantly. If Zhao Qingrui thinks it is delicious, the taste must be good.
"No problem, let's go." Zhao Qingrui said generously.
The seeds she took out were used to plant several acres of land. She still trusted the yield of the seeds given by the system and could eat them with confidence.
When we arrived at the village, the weather was a little cooler today, with a cool autumn breeze, which was perfect for traveling.
When she arrived at the place where strawberries were planted, Zhao Qingrui saw the large strawberries. The bright red color was very pleasing. The most pleasing thing was that they were very big, slightly bigger than her fist. These strawberries were basically this big.
"Let's pick some to try." Zhao Qingrui hurriedly called them after taking a small basket from the steward.
"This is a strawberry. It's so big and beautiful." Yin Man picked one and couldn't hold it with one hand.
"It smells really good. I want to take a bite just by looking at it." Meng Yu also picked one and smelled it. It smelled so good. She liked the smell very much.
"We picked some, washed them and ate them. You will find that they not only smell good, but taste even better." Zhao Qingrui smiled. Only some of these strawberries are ripe, and many are not ripe yet, so they can be eaten for a long time.
"Now that Your Highness has said this, I am even more looking forward to it." Wang Xian's face was full of anticipation.
I picked a small basket of strawberries very quickly, mainly because the strawberries were quite large and only a few could fit in one basket.
Zhao Qingrui asked someone to fetch well water and carefully washed all the strawberries.
"Try them all, they're delicious, so delicious." After washing them, Zhao Qingrui picked up one and bit directly into the reddest part on the tip. The sweet taste filled her mouth, which was better than all the strawberries she had eaten in her previous life.
After taking a bite, a few people also showed a look of surprise.
"This strawberry will be my favorite fruit from now on." Yin Man announced seriously.
"This is the most delicious fruit I have ever eaten." Wang Xian looked at the strawberry in his hand with burning eyes.
"If you like it, eat more. There are still so many in the field. I will send you more later." Zhao Qingrui greeted them quickly. She just wanted to eat more at the moment and didn't want to praise how delicious the strawberries were.
After eating three strawberries, she felt a little full.
The same thing happened to Yin Man and the others. It was their first time eating all-you-can-eat fruit.
"What do you think, how should we divide these strawberries? In addition to those for father and the palace, we can also send some to the ministers' homes. I'm a little undecided about how much to give." Zhao Qingrui looked at a few people, took another one and started eating.
"Send them according to the officials' ranks, and then ask Censor Feng and Prince Fusu to bring the assessment books. Your Highness can reward more to those who have done well during this period." Wang Xian paused while eating strawberries, thought for a while, and then gave Zhao Qingrui an idea.
"Okay, let's do as you say." Zhao Qingrui made the decision directly.
When they left, everyone was a little full, so Zhao Qingrui asked someone to pick a few baskets of ripe strawberries and send them to the palace.
After Ying Zheng had dinner, he heard that his two daughters had not returned yet. He felt a little worried and prepared to send someone to look for them to prevent them from encountering any danger.
"Your Majesty, Princess Qingrui and Princess Yinman are back." Just when Ying Zheng was about to send someone to find them, Zhao Gao came to report that Zhao Qingrui and the others were back.
"I'll go and take a look." He came back so late, and no one knew where he had gone. I wonder if he, as an old father, was worried about them.
"Your Majesty, Her Highness is now in Wangyi Palace. I invite you to come over. I also invite all the princes and princesses, as well as Censor Feng, to come over." Zhao Gao reported what he knew.
