Li Qingling went to the kitchen to fry those pills …
On the other hand, Liu Zhimo brought Liu Zhiyan, Li Qingfeng and Big River to help paste couplets. They were already used to doing these things at home anyways, it wasn't difficult for them.
On the contrary, when the servants of the Xue Mansion saw their master work, they were shocked. They still wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h the couplets Liu Zhimo and the others had left behind, not allowing them to paste them in.
Did they really not see which family's master would do all this work by himself?
Liu Zhimo said that they had gotten used to it. It was fine, let the servants busy themselves with it, no need to bother with them.
Seeing Liu Zhimo's resolute att.i.tude, the servants could only listen to him and busy themselves with their own matters.
When they finished posting the couplets, it was already afternoon. On the other side of the kitchen, Li Qingling also had all kinds of delicious pills.
At this moment, she was preparing the dishes for the evening. Originally, she planned to eat hotpot, but after eating a few days ago, she changed her mind. It was more traditional so she could prepare the 12 dishes.
She asked the kitchen staff to prepare the dishes for her, and tonight she cooked the dishes herself.
He left the kitchen after giving her the things she needed.
"Is the couplet pasted? Is the lantern hung? " Li Qingling asked Liu Zhimo when he saw him.
Liu Zhimo laughed and agreed, then asked her about the fried pills? When can I eat?
Li Qingling raised his eyebrows at him, and asked him with a smile if he was greedy.
He was rather frank and nodded his head to say that he was hungry.
It was also during New Year's Eve that Li Qingling would explode the pills for them to eat. Normally, he wouldn't explode at all, he said he had no time to do so.
Every new year, the pills were the ones they coveted the most.
Li Qingling laughed, "You can eat it now, but it's still hot, leave it in the kitchen to dry."
Finished, Liu Zhimo turned and shouted, asking the children if they wanted to eat the pills?
When the children heard that the pills were ready to eat, they cheered and said they wanted to eat them.
"If you want to eat, go to the kitchen and bring it out to the parlour." After he finished speaking, he extended out his hand and pulled Li Qingling's hand, walking towards their courtyard.
Li Qingling looked at him suspiciously, and asked him why he didn't eat it?
Liu Zhimo said that since it was still hot, he will eat later. He will accompany you back to your room to change first.
Seeing him being so considerate, Li Qingling felt as if she had drunk honey in her heart. She held his hand tightly with her ten fingers, saying that another year had pa.s.sed by so quickly.
When she first arrived in this world, she didn't expect this day to come.
The past few years had been too difficult, too difficult. Fortunately, they had survived it.
Liu Zhimo also nodded emotionally. In those few years, if it wasn't for the little girl in front of him helping him, forget about him being able to read, even being warm and full would be a problem.
If one were to ask who the person he was most grateful to in his entire life was, it would undoubtedly be this little girl in front of him.
"Thank you, my wife."
"Thank me for what?" Li Qingling knew what he meant, "We are husband and wife, we should support each other. Actually, she was very grateful to him as well. If it wasn't for him, she might not have been here today.
"Yes, what does my wife say?" Liu Zhimo held her hands tightly, feeling touched. What need did he have to have a wife like this?
When he first found out that his father had made him such a fiancee, he felt conflicted in his heart. Now, he was extremely grateful to his father for his decision, allowing him to have such a wife.
The two of them returned to the room. Li Qingling went to change out of his oily clothes, then went to the parlour with Liu Zhimo. By the time they went to the parlour, the children had already started eating.
"Big sister, this is really too delicious. It would be great if big sister could fry it for us to eat." Li Qingning said smilingly when she saw Li Qingling.
In her heart, however, she felt a little regretful. Her elder sister didn't usually fry these pills for them to eat. She only ate them once a year. She was really greedy.
Li Qingling reached out and flicked Li Qingning's head, telling her not to eat so much, it would be easy for her to get angry.
The reason why she didn't bomb these pills for them was because she didn't have time to do so. Furthermore, she was afraid that the kids would get angry from eating too much, so she fried the pills once a year to let them have a taste.
Li Qingning automatically ignored Li Qingling's words. She placed the pill in her hand into her mouth and started to bite.
He only ate it once a year, and yet he didn't even let her enjoy it. It was as if he wanted her life.
Knowing that these children would not listen to her advice, Li Qingling did not try to force them to stop, but rather, allowed them to drink the cold tea after eating the pills.
When the kids heard this, they nodded their heads vigorously. They were chewing on the pills and didn't have the time to talk.
Seeing that, Li Qingling shook his head helplessly.
"Don't worry about them. They've grown up now, so they'll make their own decisions." Liu Zhimo pulled Li Qingling's arm and sat him on a chair, then casually took out a sweet potato pill and stuffed it into her mouth for her to eat.
This sweet potato pill was really fragrant. Even if she ate it herself, she wouldn't be able to resist eating more, much less a few children.
After finis.h.i.+ng one pill, Li Qingfeng reached out to grab another, and could not help but say, "Grandfather and Camel did not immediately eat such a delicious pill, they really suffered a loss. I wonder when he will return?" He felt that the remaining heat of the pill was tastier and the fragrance was stronger than the cool one.
"I heard that the palace's chefs cook very delicious food. I wonder what kind of delicious food grandpa and the others ate?" Li Qingning licked his fingers and asked curiously.
Old Man Xue and Luo Laotou were currently watching the performance speechlessly. They really wanted to return early to eat the food Li Qingling cooked, and did not want to stay and watch such a boring performance. These performance years were about the same, what was there to look at?
"When I was going out, I heard from Xiao Ling that he wanted to bomb some kind of pill. I wonder if I will still have anything to eat after we return?" The old man sighed and took a sip of the wine in front of him, feeling extremely depressed.
When Mr. Luo heard the old man's words, he kept asking what kind of pills were fried.
The old man glanced at him, and said helplessly, he had never eaten before, and only heard from Ning Ning that it was extremely delicious. Xiao Ling only cooked it once a year, and it wasn't something he cooked normally, so he found it troublesome.
Hearing this, Mr. Luo couldn't help but swallow his saliva. She had witnessed Li Qingling's culinary skills before, they were even more delicious than the ones cooked by the royal kitchen.
"The children should save some for us." Those children were very sensible, they would definitely not take all the risk. Mr. Luo comforted himself in his heart.
"Although it's like that, Xiao Feng said that it's delicious due to the heat, and it smells good …" The more he thought about it, the sooner he would return. There were also eight dishes that the little girl cooked, so he would definitely be drooling. He truly did not want to eat the cold dishes from the palace.
It wasn't that the chefs didn't taste good, but the imperial kitchens were too far away and the weather was cold. By the time the dishes arrived, they were already cold, so what was there to eat that was cold?
In any case, he would go back hungry every year to attend a banquet at the palace.
He used to feel that it was nothing in the past, but now that Xiao Ling and the others were here, and there were still so many delicious things to eat, he couldn't wait any longer.
Hearing that, Mr. Luo swallowed his saliva again, and unreliably said, "Do you want to tell the Emperor that we're not feeling well, and that we need to go back and rest earlier?"
"Didn't you say that this method is unreliable? "Why did you come up with such a rotten idea?"
"I have no other choice, right?"
The old man grunted and took another drink to ease his anxiety.
Mr. Luo followed the old man and drank a little from his wine to pa.s.s the time.
The banquet continued all the way until evening before it ended.
During this period, they even watched the battle between the crown prince and the second prince.
This was a good show for this year's banquet.
After leaving the palace, the old man and Mr. Luo were about to get on the carriage when they were stopped by Old Man Liu.
The two of them turned to look at Old Man Liu and asked him what he wanted.
"Why are you guys in such a hurry to go back?"
The old man rolled his eyes at Old Man Liu, and said directly: "We're rus.h.i.+ng back to eat, those kids are still waiting for us!" He suspected that Old Man Liu had called them over on purpose, and was jealous that they could eat the big meal that Li Qingling had cooked, "Xiao Ling is going to cook, eat the 12 big dishes, and even cook some fried pills. It just seems delicious just by thinking about it, Old Man Liu, do you want to join us?"
Knowing that it was impossible for him to go, yet still calling him that, Old Man Liu silently glared at the old man. He was clearly his grandson's daughter-in-law, yet he couldn't eat a reunion dinner with them.
"I'll go back tomorrow. I won't go tonight." He would definitely go there tomorrow and have his granddaughter-in-law prepare exactly the same twelve dishes for him to eat and compensate him.
"Alright, see you tomorrow." The old man and Mr. Luo got onto the carriage, which made Old Man Liu angry for a while.
After the carriage had gone quite a distance away, the old man finally started laughing loudly, "Old Man Liu must be very aggrieved in his heart." Who told him to commit crimes in the past, he could only bear it now.
He really got lucky and obtained a few grandchildren.
So what if he wasn't his own blood, they still respected him as if he were their grandfather.
When he gets old, I'll send him off again.
Mr. Luo also started to laugh, but there was also a hint of schadenfreude. Once again, he was glad that he was not married, and could decide anywhere to spend the New Year without any reservations.
"The relations.h.i.+p between the crown prince and the second prince is getting more and more inappropriate." After the old man laughed, he quickly changed the topic.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see what was going on tonight.
To be more accurate, the Second Prince's ambitions were growing.
Mr. Luo snorted, he did not have a brain.
If he had the ambition, he wouldn't reveal it and let others target him.
He had already established himself as the crown prince, yet he was still showing off his strength. He was simply courting death.
"He's really quite brainless. With the crown prince not being in the wrong, it's impossible to cripple him. Is there any meaning in the second prince being so c.o.c.ky?" One day, the Crown Prince would sit on the throne, and at that time, he would be the first one to be executed.
Mr. Luo's pupils contracted. It was unknown what he was thinking, but he did not answer the old man.
