The Flirtatious Prince and His Savage Concubine

When Lu Yi stopped staring at the stone wall at the door and was about to walk into the mansion, Lu Lingxi spoke.

"Dad, go back to your room and take a rest. I'll go back to Lingxi Garden to prepare a barbecue. You can come to my courtyard to eat later. We can also taste the peach blossom wine I brewed."

Lu Yi nodded and said, "Well, you should take a rest before doing it. There is no rush. Dad will definitely come to accompany you later."

Lu Lingxi agreed, "Okay, Daddy." But in fact, she had no intention of taking a rest and ran away immediately. She still had a lot of things to prepare.

When Lu Lingxi returned to Lingxi Garden, she saw that the dishes she had asked to be prepared before leaving were already prepared in the kitchen and skewered. Two tables were set up in the courtyard, filled with a variety of meat and vegetable dishes.

Now all that was missing was a barbecue grill. Lu Lingxi ordered people to bring in a pile of flat stone bricks and build two walls that were 20 cm apart, 60 cm high and 1.2 meters long. They burned charcoal in the middle and created a simple barbecue grill.

Then he ordered someone to bring a table and put it under the osmanthus tree. Lu Lingxi planned to sit there with Lu Yi to eat barbecue later. They should have a little distance from the barbecue grill that had just been built to prevent the night wind from blowing the smoke around and suffocating them.

Lu Lingxi grilled two skewers of meat to see how it turned out. When the meat skewers were sizzling with oil, the aroma came out. Chang Wei and Xiaohua kept circling around Lu Lingxi's feet, stretching out their front paws to poke Lu Lingxi from time to time. Shui Lulu looked at her with her big eyes, and she almost spoke, asking Lu Lingxi to give them something to eat.

Chang Wei and Xiao Hua are now nearly seven months old. Perhaps because they eat better, they have grown much stronger than the average Chinese native dog. When they stand up, they are almost as tall as the barbecue grill we set up today. However, they have not grown much in a long time, so they should be this tall now. If they continue to be fed well, they will probably only grow sideways.

Considering that Chang Wei and Xiao Hua's sideways growth is not good for their health, Lu Lingxi will consciously control their food intake. At this moment, she touched their heads and said softly, "You can't eat from the beginning to the end. Eating too much is not good. Be good and go play. It's time to feed you later. I'll call you."

Chang Wei and Xiao Hua were suddenly upset after hearing what Lu Lingxi said. They ran with their heads down and sat quietly. Lu Lingxi looked at their actions and shook his head in amusement. He also felt it was magical. No matter what he said to them, they could understand and even had some emotions. With them by his side, he would not feel bored even if he was locked in the yard every day.

Lu Lingxi turned around and was about to taste the skewers he had grilled when Lu Yi's voice came from the gate: "Lingxi, are you planning to eat alone? You didn't even offer your meal to your father after you finished grilling it."

When Lu Lingxi heard Lu Yi's voice, he quickly stood up with the skewers to greet him: "Dad, this is my first time grilling and I don't know how it tastes, so I want to try it first. I was planning to give you the best grilled ones later."

When Lu Lingxi approached Lu Yi, he saw that besides the housekeeper Wei Shu, there was another person following him with a horse. He was puzzled for a moment: "Dad, why is he riding a horse? Our house is not big, it's only two steps away, there's no need to ride a horse."

Lu Yi was amused by Lu Lingxi's question: "Silly child, this is your birthday present from your father. I heard from your brother before that you wanted to learn to ride a horse. Today is your birthday, and your father specially selected a horse with a gentle personality and a shorter stature, suitable for girls to ride, and gave it to you. Do you like it?"

Lu Lingxi was so happy to hear this that he didn't even bother to taste the skewers first. He stuffed the skewers in his hand into Lu Yi's hand without even looking at Lu Yi. He just stared at the horse and said, "Daddy, please try it first. I'll go see this cute little horse."

Lu Lingxi circled the horse three times to the left and three times to the right, and couldn't stop looking at it. In his mind, he was already imagining the beautiful scene of himself riding a horse. He thought about what it would be like if he had three or five good friends riding together, and the background music sounded: "Let us be companions in the world, live freely, ride horses and share the prosperity of the world..."

This life is so happy. After Lu Lingxi turned around a few times, he couldn't help clapping his hands and said, "Well, this is great. Thank you, Dad. This is the best birthday gift I have ever received."

Seeing that Lu Lingxi liked the horse he gave her so much, Lu Yi was in a good mood: "Well, as long as Lingxi likes it, it's good. Since it's a gift to you, you can give it a name."

Lu Lingxi walked around the horse again, looking at its smooth and beautiful brown hair. After thinking for a while, he said, "Let's call it Yunzong! What do you think, Daddy?"

Lu Yi: "Okay, whatever you think is good."

Lu Lingxi watched happily for a while, then suddenly became unhappy, pouting and saying, "But Daddy, I don't know if I forgot because of amnesia or what, but I can't ride a horse now. My brother said he would teach me before, but he is at the border now, so he hardly has time to teach me."

Lu Yi: "Lingxi, it's not that you forgot how to ride a horse. Daddy thought that you didn't act like a girl at all, and it would be even harder to discipline you if you rode around every day, so he didn't let you learn to ride a horse. Now you are acting more and more like a girl, and you are becoming more and more obedient. Thinking that this is what you want, Daddy will of course satisfy you. Starting tomorrow, you will feed Yunzong every day and get familiar with it. When you get along well next month, Daddy will find time to teach you personally."

Lu Lingxi was very happy when he heard this, and he quickly ran over to hold Lu Yi's arm, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Daddy! Have you tried this barbecue kebab? How does it taste?"

Lu Yi had been looking at Lu Lingxi before, but when he heard her mention the skewers, he noticed the skewers in his hand, took a bite, and praised: "Hmm, not bad, with a unique flavor."

Lu Lingxi: "As long as Dad likes it. Let's sit over there." He pointed to the table under the osmanthus tree.

Lu Yi was not in a hurry to sit down, and said to the housekeeper Wei behind him: "Old Wei, take Yun Zong to the stables in the back."

Lao Wei: "Okay, sir." He then ordered the person who brought the horse to take the horse away.

When Lu Yi and Lu Lingxi sat down together, Chunhong, Liulu and the two cooks had already grilled a number of skewers, and put the meat and vegetables in different plates and placed them on the table. The meat dishes included lamb, pork ribs, pork belly, chicken legs, duck, crucian carp... and the vegetables included lotus root, potatoes, winter melon, green beans, sweet potato leaves, yam, cabbage... Although not as rich as modern dishes, these dishes were already very complete according to Lu Lingxi's instructions.

After sitting down, Lu Lingxi first took out the peach blossom wine that he had not drunk during lunch and filled Lu Yi's cup. "Dad, there is nothing important to do tonight, so you can drink more. Come and try this peach blossom wine to see if it suits your taste."

Lu Yi: "Okay, daddy will accompany you tonight until you are drunk. After you get married, I'm afraid it will be difficult to have such an opportunity again." Thinking that Lu Lingxi will be getting married next year, Lu Yi felt reluctant.

Lu Lingxi didn't want to accept the fact that she was going to get married soon, but she still tried to comfort Lu Yi, saying, "Don't worry, Daddy. Even if I get married in the future, I will come home to see you every few days. Don't think I'm annoying then."

Although he knew that it was unrealistic for Lu Lingxi to go home often after she got married, Lu Yi still said happily: "I am so happy that you can come back to see daddy, how can I find you annoying. Your brother is away all year round now, and you are getting married too, this house is becoming more and more deserted."

Lu Lingxi said with a smile: "Dad feels lonely, why don't you find me a stepmother and give birth to a few children, then this house will be lively."

Lu Yi glared at Lu Lingxi and said angrily, "You are becoming more and more disrespectful!"

Lu Lingxi stuck out his tongue again and tried to get away with it.
