Chapter 919: A Connoisseur
Xiao Chen nodded, feeling extremely happy, "I know what Uncle Rong means."
"That's good."
Then, the two of them walked out of the house together.
Xiao Zhenzhen saw that Xiao Chen was holding the bracelet, and looked at Rong Xun angrily, "Uncle Rong, why did I come for so long and bring you the best Huadiao wine, but he came empty-handed and you gave him a gift?"
"Humph, Uncle Rong is biased!"
"Uncle Rong, this is against the law. You are favoring boys over girls!"
Rong Xun: “…”
He smiled and said, "Okay, Zhen'er, go and choose by yourself later. Just choose whatever you like."
Xiao Zhenzhen said: "That's what you said yourself, Uncle Rong."
"Ah."
At dinner, Jingwen did odd jobs on the side while Rongxun cooked personally in the kitchen shed.
When the smoke from the cooking rose and the aroma of the food filled the air, Xiao Zhenzhen was stunned. It felt like a banished immortal from heaven came down to earth to live an ordinary life.
During the days when Xiao Zhenzhen was marching and fighting, she also learned to take care of herself. After she went into the kitchen to help, Zhou Yiqing and Xiao Chen followed her in.
Only Xie Ying stood beside them, seeming at a loss for a moment.
She really didn't do any of these things.
Although she did everything she could to pursue Xiao Chen, she had never been in the kitchen!
Xiao Chen seemed to see her embarrassment, so he gave her a handful of beans and taught her, "Just remove the two ends and break them off."
After a pause, Xiao Chen continued: "My Ah Ying may not know these things, because I do."
Xiao Zhenzhen, Zhou Yiqing, and Jing Wen all turned their heads to look at them.
Xie Ying's face turned red instantly. When she raised her eyes, she found that Lord Lian Rong was also glancing at them.
"I, I will."
Xiao Chen nodded, then turned around and glared at Xiao Zhenzhen and the others. After they turned their heads around, Xiao Chen whispered in Xie Ying's ear, "So, A Ying is ready to live with me?"
Xie Ying: “…”
How on earth could he be so - brazen.
Xie Yingzhi lowered his head and picked some vegetables.
Qingxigou, where Lord Rong lived, was truly as desirable as a paradise, but she still felt a little uncomfortable.
It was not until they worked together in the kitchen and served the dishes one by one on the table that everyone started joking around, without any distinction of status, and only with respect for Lord Rong and Jingwen.
Xiao Zhenzhen, Xiao Chen, they are both noble princes and princesses.
Now they are all kings, but they are so approachable.
Such a Xiao Chen really made her love him from the bottom of her heart. Looking at Xiao Chen, Xie Ying said in her heart more than once, marry him, then there will be no children.
Wait until he wants a child before divorcing him!
The sky has fallen.
The clear stream was filled with the sounds of insects and frogs. Xiao Zhenzhen and Xie Ying lay on the rocking chairs Rong Xun made himself, looking at the starry sky, feeling particularly comfortable and leisurely.
Xiao Zhenzhen said, "When Sister has governed the country well, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, men and women are equal, and the people are rich and the country is strong, we will become neighbors with Uncle Rong. I have seen that the land next to Uncle Rong's house can be used to build at least three or five houses."
"Look, my father planted camellias and plum blossoms. Are there any edible ones? Only peach trees can bear fruit.
But as for Uncle Rong, he has a lot of fruit trees planted in his yard, in front and behind his house, with mountains and water. They will surely bear fruit in two years.
Having a dog, some fish, and the sweet-smelling osmanthus tree is really a great place to be.”
Xie Ying blinked, "Yeah, there are a lot of mosquito repellent plants planted in the yard, but no mosquitoes bite me."
"Uncle Rong said that the mosquito larvae might have been eaten by the fish and shrimp in the pond." Xiao Zhenzhen said with a smile, but it was probably the incense and mosquito repellent grass in the yard that played a big role.
"Hey, I don't want to go back to Beijing."
Xie Ying looked at Xiao Zhenzhen, "You've changed a lot since you came back from Yuecheng Country. Has anyone told you about this?"
"Ok, I know."
Xiao Zhenzhen turned her head and looked at Xie Ying, "You have changed a lot too."
"what?"
Xiao Zhenzhen returned to the topic from the daytime, "You and my brother, you used to chase after my brother, but now that you've caught up with him, you don't cherish him."
Xie Ying didn't know what to say.
Xiao Zhenzhen continued, "Sister-in-law Aying, please stop torturing my elder brother." With a pitiful expression, she thought of it as her efforts for her brother to win a little sympathy from Aying.
Xie Ying took a deep breath and said, "There are some things I don't know how to explain."
"You must have some concerns in your heart."
Xie Ying said "hmm".
"what is it?"
Xie Ying didn't want to say, "Your brother knows everything."
"My royal brother knows?"
"Ah."
Xiao Zhenzhen stood up immediately and said, "I'll go ask."
Xie Ying quickly held her back, "No, don't ask anymore." She looked towards the kitchen. In the thatched kitchen, Jingwen, Xiao Chen, and Zhou Yiqing were all holding lanterns. One was washing the bowls with soup in the pot for the first time, and the other was washing them for the second time.
They are all very nice people.
Xiao Zhenzhen opened her mouth, but Xie Ying interrupted her and said, "Maybe I just need a little time."
She looked at Xiao Zhenzhen sincerely, not wanting her to ask.
Xiao Zhenzhen groaned and lay back down, "Okay."
After a stick of incense.
Xiao Chen, Zhou Yiqing has already washed the dishes and come over with washed hands.
The four people standing together are two perfect couples with good looks and talent.
Rong Xun came out holding Xiao Huang and waved to Xiao Zhenzhen and Zhou Yiqing to choose their own gifts.
Zhou Yiqing scratched the back of his head. Why did he still have it?
Xiao Zhenzhen took his arm and said, "Uncle Rong has said that if you don't choose now, you won't have a choice in the future."
Rong Xun smiled and nodded to Zhou Yiqing, "Go ahead."
After the two of them looked past the pile of wood, they saw a large house full of sawdust and some half-finished products.
Xiao Zhenzhen looked around and finally picked a gourd carved from sandalwood.
Zhou Yiqing chose a peach wood sword.
Rong Xun looked at the peach wood sword and said nothing in the end. He knew that Zhou Yiqing probably just thought that the peach wood sword was exquisitely carved, but didn't know that this peach wood sword could be used to protect the house.
When Xiao Chen saw the peach wood sword, he frowned. He remembered that among all the Taoist magic tools, there was also a peach wood sword among the birthday gifts that Uncle Rong gave him when he left the capital last year.
That peach wood sword protects the house!
Zhou Yiqing is a connoisseur of good things.
"Uncle Rong, we will come to see you another day." Xiao Chen, Xiao Zhenzhen and Rong Xun said goodbye.
Zhou Yiqing and Xie Ying also said goodbye one by one.
Then four young men and women rode away on horseback.
Jingwen moved his neck, hands and feet, "Now, it should be quiet for a while."
Rong Xun said "hmm". Maybe. Tomorrow, Yun'er and Xiao Lusheng will also return to Beijing. It is unknown when they will come to Qingxigou.
