Looking at the two boxes and two pieces of cloth in front of him.
Cheng Yuanxi:...? ?
Is the weasel giving New Year greetings to the chicken?
"Your prince..." Cheng Yuanxi said uncertainly.
Buwei's smile remained unchanged, "These are all chosen by the prince. Knowing that he loves reading, he specially found the original copy of Xu Tongguang, a great scholar from the previous dynasty; and Mr. Cheng is a scholar, so Langhao is perfect for Mr. Cheng."
"...Your eldest son is very considerate, please thank your eldest son for me."
Cheng Yuanxi handed the tray to him, "There are dumplings cooked for your son, please deliver them to me if you can."
"It should be, it should be." Bu Weihuan accepted it happily, watched Cheng Yuanxi and his son leave, and turned around to enter Canghaiyuan.
Zhou Ting and Mingyi are not in the courtyard, but in the house; they don't want to follow the voice to find them; it is the living room where guests are entertained in Canghaiyuan. Because it is the courtyard of the boudoir, the living room is connected to the boudoir with a screen in the middle. .
The house was decorated by Mingyi. She had been to the ancient small world and knew the furnishings of women's boudoirs. She followed the familiar specifications, but the furnishings were simple.
"Master, Miss Cheng, this servant is here to deliver the dumplings."
Buwei stood outside the door, lowered his eyes and replied.
"Come in." Zhou Ting stopped talking and turned to look at the door.
Buwei held the tray in both hands and stepped forward, placing the tray on the table. Just as he was about to speak, Zhou Ting spoke, "I will stay at Cheng's house today and return to the palace in the evening."
Buwei nodded, "I accept your order."
Zhou Ting nodded, dismissed it, and looked at the bowls on the tray; a large basin covered with a pottery bowl, two pairs of bowls and chopsticks placed next to it, and two small bowls. One small bowl contained acid. vinegar and chili oil in a small bowl.
Mingyi gave the chili oil to his family. When he first arrived in the northwest, Mingyi found that chili peppers were very common in the northwest. So he figured out the chili oil as an excuse. As a result, the Cheng family felt good after eating it and became addicted to it every day. It takes a bite of chili to feel comfortable.
However, people in the northwest like to chew chili peppers dryly, but they rarely use them as ingredients in dishes.
"What is this?" Zhou Ting pointed to the chili oil.
Mingyi said: "It is an ingredient that our family has figured out. It is very refreshing and appetizing to eat with stews and dumplings. You should also try it. If you are used to it, I will put a can back for you when you leave."
"Okay, let me try it." He said enthusiastically, opening the pottery lid, and underneath was a pot of dumplings with soup.
Mingyi stood up and helped serve out a bowl of dumplings for him, "Dip it in the chili pepper and eat it."
Zhou Ting nodded, and sure enough, he picked up a dumpling with chopsticks and dipped it in chili pepper to taste; it was spicy and spicy, not the same as what he usually eats, but it was delicious.
"tasty."
With chili peppers, you won’t get tired of eating dumplings that are fishy.
"Yiyi, you should eat too. I don't feel good eating alone."
Mingyi smiled, filled out half a bowl and ate with him.
Zhou Ting had a great time eating. The chili the Cheng family ate was not too spicy, but it was spicy enough for Zhou Ting. By the time he finished the small pot of dumplings, he was sweating on his forehead and the tip of his nose.
On a cold day, eating such food will make your whole body feel comfortable.
"Just in time, I mixed the chili oil again at home yesterday. I took a can with me when I left." The chili oil is only for daily consumption at home, and the amount is not large. I can give you one can but not much.
"Thank you Yiyi."
Mingyi smiled, took out a handkerchief and gave it to him, "Wipe the sweat from your face."
Zhou Ting took it shyly and lost his composure in front of his sweetheart. He quickly wiped it and stuffed the handkerchief into his arms.
It was rare to see Zhou Ting blushing with embarrassment. Mingyi found it strange and couldn't help but stare at him in confusion.
Being stared at directly showed that he was attracted to the other person. Zhou Ting smiled proudly, his handsome face getting hotter, but seeing that she still didn't hold back and was in a trance, he felt a little dissatisfied.
"Yiyi."
"Um?"
Mingyi woke up and her eyes became focused.
"what's on your mind
? "She actually got distracted. Isn't he attractive enough to her?"
Even if he is underage and does not have the stature of an adult man, he has never given up on his appearance.
Mingyi shook his head, stood up and said, "Chaosheng, wait for me here, I'll go get something."
Amid Zhou Ting's puzzled gaze, she crossed the screen and walked into the inner room; avoiding the eyes of others, she took out a century-old ginseng, a century-old Ganoderma lucidum, and two red fruits from the space.
Put them into three boxes respectively, hold the boxes in your arms and turn them around to the living room.
The box was placed on the table, and he pushed it in front of Zhou Ting and said, "Chaosheng, I don't have anything handy at home, only these can be of some use to you; these two boxes are for the princess, and the other box is for you. "
I pointed out the box containing Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng to him, and then pointed to the box specially prepared for him.
"Can you open it and take a look?" Zhou Ting asked curiously.
Mingyi nodded, "Of course it's okay. What's not to like about the things I'm giving to you and Princess Zhou?"
Zhou Ting smiled slightly at her and opened the box; he was not surprised that she took out the ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum in good condition. She always seemed to be able to come up with some unexpectedly good medicinal materials.
Fuling grass that detoxifies, longevity fruit that repairs the body, and red fruit that enhances internal strength.
Others are lucky to get one, she has it all.
"Jugo!"
Still two.
Bright red, the pulp is very fresh.
Zhou Ting quickly closed Zhu Guo's box, "Yiyi, don't give away such precious things again, keep it for your own use."
He has gained enough, and his internal strength is stronger than that of the secret guards. After this period of training, his skills have improved greatly. Now, if his martial arts is not one of the best, it is not too bad.
What he needs is time to settle.
Mingyi always gave him things without covering them up, and they were all in the freshest condition; Zhu Guo was so rare, and every time she took out the things, they were always fresh. If others saw them, they would inevitably become greedy.
"It's okay, I still have it."
Zhou Ting was deeply moved, she always trusted him so much.
"Then I can't give it anymore. I have enough internal strength." Finally, he pushed back the box containing the Zhu Guo. "Your brother is also practicing martial arts. Give it to him."
Mingyi shook his head, "Brother can't use it yet. His internal strength is too weak and his skills are not good. If his internal strength suddenly increases, his muscles and body will be unable to withstand it."
"Then I..." He had been suffering from a virus for so many years and his physical condition was very poor. How could he endure it?
"You are different. Your body is weak because of toxins; but your body is very suitable for martial arts training and your muscles are strong. My brother's muscles are thinner than ours, and they can only be improved through acquired training."
Zhou Ting smiled knowingly, "In that case, I will accept it shamelessly; just for the last time, don't give me any more red fruits. You keep them for later use."
Mingyi nodded in agreement, and she didn't have many red fruits in her hand; if she didn't have anything to hand as a New Year's gift, she wouldn't have planned to give it away.
Zhou Ting's internal strength is indeed enough. He should have more than 20 years of internal strength now, and it is not a problem to face ordinary masters.
As the crown prince, he has many guards around him. He is followed by secret guards every day. He has the ability to protect himself and is safe.
