After he left the cold palace, before his cheap father fell out with him, An Jingbo's favorite place to go was the embroidery room.
It's not that he doesn't want to go to the study, but his cheap father obviously doesn't care about his studies, and is even a little repulsive.
In order not to displease his father, An Jingbo retreated and went to the embroidery room every day.
There is a new embroiderer in the embroidery room who is from Suzhou and can embroider with double-sided skills.
An Jingyi likes to see the embroiderer's quiet feeling of time when she is embroidering, and even wants to learn from this embroiderer.
But he himself also knew that as a man, this kind of hobby should never be seen by the world.
Therefore, he often stood outside Xiu Niang's window during the day and watched her for most of the day.
In the evening, he would go back to the palace and practice the skills he saw during the day silently. This was also considered a little-known hobby of his.
As time passed, a new rumor arose in the palace: "The prince has taken a liking to the embroiderer in the embroidery room and wants to carry her to his own room."
The embroiderer had obviously heard this rumor, and would always smile at him every time she saw him standing outside the window.
Xiu Niang was not beautiful, but An Jingyi thought her smile was warm.
The two of them just got along with each other peacefully.
Until one day, Xiu Niang died.
Because she stole the golden thread from the Queen Mother's phoenix robe, her fingers were broken off one by one, her palms were crushed, and she died of pain.
An Jingji did not see Xiu Niang's body. He heard that the Queen Mother was so angry that she ordered people to drag Xiu Niang's body out and burn it.
An Jinghao was silent about this for many days. In fact, he originally wanted to tell Xiu Niang that he had never thought about accepting Xiu Niang into his house, but he wanted to be friends with Xiu Niang.
However, there is no chance.
Although the embroidery lady died, An Jingyi's embroidery skills remained, and they just came in handy now.
Apparently, Jin Qing was very satisfied with the flowers he showed and handed over all the sewing work to An Jingyi.
In order to allow An Jingbo to work better, Jin Qing even brought back two palace lanterns and several kerosene lamps.
At night, they would light up all the lights in the room, making the door bright as if it were daytime.
Sometimes, An Jingbo would even have the illusion that they were not suffering in the cold palace, but living in seclusion there...
With the continuous improvement of living standards, An Jinghao's originally gloomy expression also softened day by day.
Sometimes, he even had the illusion that the things that happened in his previous life might really be a dream.
Because in his understanding, how could a woman like Jin Qing, who had a bad mind and a high force value, and could live a smooth life anywhere, be beaten to death so easily.
This alone makes no sense.
Just like now, An Jinghao was deep in thought while holding the giant chicken paw in his hand.
This claw with a nail cap longer than my little finger was torn off from something. Why does it always look familiar?
Jin Qing has brought back a lot of food these days, but this is the first time An Jingbo has seen such big chicken feet.
While thinking about it, An Jingyi tried to bite the claw in his hand.
But this thing seemed to be made of iron. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't bite the surface of the claw.
Feeling that Jin Qing had focused her attention on herself, An Jingyi didn't want to be ridiculed by her for not even knowing how to eat, so she simply bit down on a finger with all her strength and pulled it down.
Hearing a crisp "click" sound, Jin Qing tilted his head and looked at An Jingfu sideways: "You little bastard must be punished for not paying attention to the class!"
An Jingbo spit out two teeth with a calm expression: his front teeth were knocked out.
Looking at the bloodshot front teeth on the ground, An Jingji froze in place: he remembered that in the dream, he only grew new teeth when he was nine years old due to malnutrition.
So what should I do in the past few years? What will he eat with, and will he spit when he talks?
Looking at his spitted teeth on the ground with dull eyes, An Jingbo's heart turned over and over again.
Should he act like a real child now and howl at Jin Qing in the yard at the top of his lungs to see if he can arouse this woman's sympathy?
Seeing that An Jingzhen didn't speak, he just stared at the ground quietly.
Jin Qing scratched the back of his head, turned around and entered the kitchen. After a while, he took out a long wooden skewer from the kitchen and brought it to An Jingbo: "Eat this!" Although there was no meat, there was no meat. It's easier to chew than those iron claws!
Looking at what he was wearing on the label, An Jinghao said: "..." Are you kidding me?
The sign was wearing a neck that was less than half a person's height, and there was a semicircular head with a long beak on it.
An Jinghao took a deep breath, and then shouted to Jin Qing: "You actually ate the crane in the imperial garden!"
An Jingbo felt that he had fallen into madness. He knew that the crane was a gift from the prince to the palace on the Queen Mother's birthday last year.
Although the Queen Mother did not like the feudal king, she cherished this beautiful crane very much and regarded it as a good omen.
On weekdays, even if a hair falls out and she discovers it, the eunuch who keeps it will eat a meal.
But now, this auspiciousness has been cooked by Jin Qing.
Seeing An Jing's indignant look, Jin Qing raised a crane leg and put it in his mouth to chew on it: "Eat it, it tastes pretty good. It's the biggest one in the imperial garden."
An Jingji said to Jin Qing: "There is a white tiger in the imperial garden, why didn't you eat that thing too?" How on earth did this woman move such a big crane back?
An Jingbo originally thought that Jin Qing would stop talking, but after listening to his words, Jin Qing perked up and said, "Where is it? I'll carry it at night!" That thing is indeed meaty.
An Jingbo: "..." Can you just pretend I didn't say anything? I just want to dig a hole and bury myself in it.
Stealing the crane is already asking for death, but this woman actually wants to steal the tiger back... to eat!
Why is she not afraid of being eaten by a tiger?
Seeing that An Jingbo was silent, Jin Qing stopped asking and continued to eat the crane leg in his hand: "This thing tastes really good, the texture of the meat is good and full of bite."
It's a pity that there is only one. Let's look back and see where the tiger is!
Seeing Jin Qing's stuttering expression, An Jing stared at her angrily.
Sensing An Jing's gaze, Jin Qing looked at him sideways: "Do you have any questions? You can ask them anytime!" As a qualified teacher, she can answer students' questions at any time.
To be honest, she was heartbroken for the sake of An Jing's success!
Hearing Jin Qing say that he could ask questions, An Jinghao subconsciously licked his lips: "Can I taste what this crane tastes like?"
An Jingyi was crying in his heart, he had fallen.
