The Huo family has lived in a border town for a long time and only comes here occasionally. They are a family of military generals, so everything is grand and spacious. The house is a bit old and there are still weeds in the yard.
Emperor Mingyan frowned more and more as he looked at him. He turned around and shouted, "What's going on? Your master is so lenient, but you are so arrogant? You can't even weed the grass in the yard. What's the use of you?"
"I dare not!" Ding Xiaoyan knelt down hurriedly: "Master said he wanted to make a lawn, not to weed..." He measured with his hands: "It's just a layer of short grass, and then he said to put a big swing here, and also said to put some fitness equipment, he has already drawn a map and asked people to do it."
Emperor Mingyan frowned, "This kid, it's already autumn, why is he messing around with grass!"
Several people walked to the back and saw Tang Shiyue coming out with mud on her hands. When she saw Emperor Ming Yan, her eyes curved and she ran to greet him: "Aye! Mother!"
The prince was stunned.
He really didn't expect that Tang Shiyue actually called her Aye and Niang?
Is this adopting a daughter?
The Crown Princess was even more astonished. She looked at the Crown Prince and then at Tang Shiyue several more times.
The Imperial Concubine helped her with her hair and said, "Just let the subordinates do these things. Look at what you are wearing!"
...
...
"I'm worried that they can't do it well. It doesn't matter anyway, so I'll lend a hand." Tang Shiyue answered as he walked over. When he saw the prince, he was stunned.
The prince raised his eyebrows and smiled, "I came here secretly on my own, not because Aye asked me to come. And you don't have to worry about not having food for me, I brought my own food and cook."
Tang Shiyue was amused: "Brother is really thoughtful."
The prince smiled and said, "Hurry up and wash your hands and come meet your sister-in-law."
Tang Shiyue washed her hands as she was told. The prince took a handkerchief from the princess' sleeve and said from a distance, "Ayue, come here."
Tang Shiyue came over with a smile, and he handed her a handkerchief. Just as she dried her hands and before she had time to greet him, the prince lifted her hand and pressed it on the Crown Princess's belly.
The Crown Princess took a step back in shock.
The prince smiled and held her back: "Don't be afraid, Yue'er is the Queen of Fortune, she will give you a son!"
The Crown Princess was stunned.
The marriage between the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess was a political one, so their relationship wasn't necessarily very good, but it wasn't bad either. After all, the Crown Prince had a gentle temperament and gave the Crown Princess enough respect. It was just that the two had been married for many years but had no legitimate children, so the Crown Princess felt a little sorry for him.
When she said this, she instinctively felt that he was trying to point a finger at her, and her face turned pale.
The Imperial Concubine laughed and said, "Zuo'er also believes this?"
"I didn't believe it at first." The prince laughed and said, "Before, Sheng Qi was spread all over the village, and I only half believed it. But two days ago, I ran into Lin Cheng, the county magistrate of their county, and I learned that his wife was pregnant. She said that before she left, she asked Yue'er to touch her."
He smiled and tapped her hand: "Hurry up, give us one."
Tang Shiyue glanced at the Crown Princess, smiled and touched her again: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, children will come when they are supposed to!"
The Crown Princess laughed hastily and said, "I appreciate your words, sister."
Emperor Mingyan smiled and said, "Okay, Yue'er, what delicious food do you want to treat me to?"
Tang Shiyue said: "Something you have never eaten."
She pushed open the door and asked a few people to sit down first: "You sit down and wait, I'll go and do it. It will be done in a while."
She trotted off.
Wei Xin served tea. Emperor Mingyan and the Imperial Concubine were not in a hurry to go in. They walked around. The Crown Prince also took the Crown Princess around and said to her with a smile, "Don't be restrained when you are with Yue'er. Before in Qinzhou, Sheng Qi and I lived in her house, and she was never polite."
The Crown Princess couldn't help but ask, "Are those rumors true?"
"What rumors are you referring to?" The prince said with a smile, "Cowpox is true, wind-healing wine is true, cement is true, essential oil is true..." He smiled and glanced at her belly, "Empress Fu's gift of a child is absolutely true."
The Crown Princess was a little surprised.
At this time, the dishes were served one after another. Finally, Tang Shiyue personally brought up a large plate of boiled fish, "Let's eat!"
The fish was cooked by her herself. The fish fillet was white and tender, the soup was bright red, and it was garnished with a few red peppers... It made you want to drool!
In order to take care of these natives who had never seen chili peppers, Tang Shiyue didn't make the food too spicy.
Before the dishes were served, the eunuchs tasted them one by one. When the eunuch tasted the fish, he was so frightened that he kept saying, "No! No! My mouth is full of stings!"
Tang Shiyue almost laughed to death at his description.
She introduced it to Emperor Ming Yan: "This thing is called chili pepper. It is a fresh seasoning with a strong flavor. It is very addictive to eat. The more you eat, the more you want to eat. After eating it, your whole body will be warm... But if you eat too much, you will get a sore throat, so you can't eat too much."
She looked at Emperor Mingyan with bright eyes, then at the Imperial Concubine: "Come and try it! I made it myself!"
The two looked at each other.
Compared to the dishes made by the imperial chef, each of them was delicate, elegant, beautiful, and served in small plates and bowls. Her big pot of bright red food with peppercorns on top looked really unappetizing.
But this was made by Yue'er herself!
So the Imperial Concubine took the lead in picking up the silver chopsticks: "Mother, please try Ayue's cooking."
She carefully picked up a piece of fish fillet and put it in her mouth. Then her face changed slightly and she spat it into the bowl: "It hurts!"
The prince's face changed and he stood up at once: "Mother? Mother! Call the imperial physician!"
"Don't make a fuss! This is what it feels like if you've never tasted it before!" Tang Shiyue waved her hands helplessly: "Forget it, you're destined not to have a good time."
She ate a bite herself, and the long-lost taste... It was so delicious that it made her cry! Tang Shiyue ate a few bites in a row and looked at them: "Are you really not going to eat it? Don't regret it later."
In fact, just now, Emperor Ming Yan almost called for help.
But seeing her familiar eyes, he remembered that she had persuaded him to eat the silk dolls before. She really wanted to ask him to eat it because it was delicious.
Emperor Ming Yan secretly felt guilty, so he raised his chopsticks and said, "Let me try it."
He took a bite and felt a slight stinging pain in his mouth, but as he chewed it again, he gradually tasted a different kind of delicious flavor.
Emperor Ming Yan couldn't help but nodded: "Not bad!" He picked up another piece of food with chopsticks.
The prince also tasted it, and after a while, he nodded: "Not bad."
Seeing Tang Shiyue's satisfied face, the Imperial Concubine couldn't help but pick up her chopsticks again, and the Crown Princess followed suit to taste it.
But in the end, only Tang Shiyue and Ming Yandi were left eating. This was something they loved to eat, and the more they ate, the more they became addicted. In the end, everyone else put down their chopsticks, and only these two were still eating.
After finishing the meal and drinking the antipyretic tea, Tang Shiyue said with a smile: "Aye, I knew you would like it! I'll save it all for you, and we'll eat it together when you come!"
"Okay." Emperor Ming Yan had been eating only until he was 70% full for many years, but today he was a little full: "Yuer, plant more, Aye, come and eat."
The Imperial Concubine helped him wipe his forehead and said, "This kind of thing is so indecent that it makes you sweat. If you want to eat it next time, send everyone away."
Emperor Mingyan smiled and nodded: "Yes."
Although it is indeed indecent, it also feels particularly satisfying. Just like Yue'er said, it is particularly "enjoyable".
