After he said that, the others couldn't refuse anymore and sat down in groups of three or four.

At this time, the waiter started to serve the dishes one after another. I looked and saw that although most of them were cooked in the usual way, the ingredients were obviously much more advanced. Some of them were not even prepared in this kind of inn. I guess Tu Shanjing had made a list and asked the waiter to buy them.

Ruiyang picked up a piece of salted quail for Tushan Jing, and took a bite himself. He praised: "You know what, although the seasoning is light, the ingredients are fresh, and it tastes a bit like our Tushan Mansion!"

Tu Shanjing turned his head and looked at him and smiled: "Do you miss Tu Shan Mansion?"

Ruiyang smiled and said, "To be honest, I usually always want to go out for some fresh air, but if I've been out for such a long time... I really miss it a little bit!"

Tu Shanjing drank a sip of tea and said, "Then you can take Senying and Xiaowei back tomorrow."

As soon as he said this, everyone stopped using their chopsticks and looked up at him.

Tu Shanjing continued, "I have other things to do tomorrow. It's not advisable to bring too many people with you on this trip. Besides, you've been out for so long. I think it would be better for you to go back and live in peace."

Sen Ying bit her chopsticks and said nothing. Xiao Wei looked at me and asked cautiously, "Then, Miss Lan Xiang...will you go back with us?"

Tu Shanjing looked at me, smiled, and said, "She won't go back, just follow me and serve."

Xiao Wei looked at me, hesitant to speak, and finally lowered her head and said, "Then... I won't go with you, and cause you more trouble. If Xiao Hui follows, I will be more relieved and will wait for you to come back in the mansion."

Tushan Jing looked at Xiao Hui and said calmly: "Xiao Hui, you are not originally from my Tushan Mansion. If you don't want to go with us, you can leave on your own tomorrow. I can give you some silver for travel expenses."

Xiao Hui was startled, and his black eyes looked at me, then at him, and replied: "Thank you very much, sir. Although the world is big, it's a pity that there is no place for me to stay. Miss, give me a name, and I will follow you and will not leave."

Tu Shanjing listened, nodded, and said, "Okay, then when I go back this time, I will ask the housekeeper to take you in and make you a servant in my courtyard. Are you willing?"

After hearing this, Xiao Hui's eyes sparkled and he stammered, "Master, I, I..."

Ruiyang winked at him and said, "You usually listen and write so much, why are you stuttering now? Why don't you thank me quickly and say something like 'a drop of water in return for a spring of gratitude in the future'?"

After hearing this, Xiao Hui stood up quickly, bowed deeply, and said, "Thank you for your kindness, sir! Although Xiao Hui's spiritual power is low, my original form is no bigger than a palm, so I will definitely not take up too much space and cause trouble to you!"

I saw that he no longer had to hide himself in a dark corner, and now he had a job, so I was happy for him.

Xiaowei was even more delighted. Although they were about to part, the temporary separation could be exchanged for a long and open reunion. Xiaohui would not have to hide from place to place anymore, so it was worth it.

Sen Ying took a sip of tea and asked carefully, "Sir, if Rui Yang leaves you, who will run around to take care of him? Isn't it not enough to have only Lan Xiang? Don't tire her out."

Tu Shanjing smiled and said, "It's okay. Changbao is in the city right now. I'll ask Yu Xin to call him to come with us. Let him do the work that requires exposure on weekdays, and Lanxiang can just take care of my daily life. When you're away from home, keep it simple and don't be too extravagant. Ruiyang broke his arm, so it's always inconvenient, so just give him a holiday and take you back home to recuperate!"

Ruiyang took a piece of pork ribs and stuffed it into his mouth, puffing his lips and saying: "Master really loves me! I will definitely be grateful for your kindness--"

Tu Shanjing waved his hand and said with a smile: "Well, can you come up with something new to say? You just said it and you picked it up again."

Ruiyang blinked and said, "Hey! I'm just hungry! This sparerib is really delicious! Come and try it!"

I also picked up a piece and put it in my mouth.

The next second, I was shocked. I stood up and asked Ruiyang, "Do you know who made these ribs?!"

Ruiyang was stunned for a moment, then replied, "Is it so delicious? The girl stood up after eating it. This is the taste prepared by the young master. He said he had a secret recipe, one wine, two sauces, three sugars, four vinegars, five water or something. I don't understand it, but he just went to the kitchen to prepare a bowl of sauce and poured it into the pot without adding anything else."

I almost cried, my eyes became hot again, and I quickly lowered my head.

The taste of these ribs is 90% similar to the ones my mother makes. For a moment, I seemed to return to my original world through this taste.

When I came here, it was still the National Day holiday, and now it is the middle of winter. I wonder if the passage of time is the same in the original world?

If they are the same, then my parents will probably be so upset with me that they will cry day and night.

Tu Shanjing was originally looking at me with a smile on his face, but when he saw me like this, when I looked up again, I saw that his smile was gradually disappearing, and a look of worry crept onto his face.

I gritted my teeth and forced myself to divert my attention. I took out the letter I had written in the afternoon, handed it to Ruiyang and said, "Ruiyang, I have something to ask of you on the way back home. Could you please help me deliver this letter to His Highness Xuanxuan?"

Ruiyang pointed at himself and asked with his mouth wide open: "Me?"

Tu Shanjing took over the conversation and said, "Yes, it is you. Don't be afraid. I have sent someone to send a letter to say hello. You just need to deliver it to him. After delivering it, leave. He won't make things difficult for you."

Ruiyang patted his chest, let out a long sigh, and said, "That's good! Although His Highness Xuan usually speaks in a friendly manner, it always feels like he might get angry at any time in the next sentence. I'm a little afraid of him."

When I thought about how he would look when he went crazy, I couldn't help but secretly admire Ruiyang's intuition.

Sen Ying said, "Last time... at his place, he was always very kind to the servants and never showed his power. Maybe it's because of the prince's majesty, he is intimidating without getting angry."

Tu Shanjing nodded and said, "Although he was a hostage in Gao Xin and suffered a lot, he is indeed a tough guy. Anyone who made him suffer or angry was eventually dismissed for various reasons. Although no one will expose it next year, anyone with a discerning eye will know it in secret. So it doesn't hurt to be respectful to him. He has something to ask of us, so he won't make trouble for a while."

Ruiyang put away the letter, patted his chest and said, "Since the young master said so, I will go there without any worries! Don't worry, young lady, I will definitely deliver it!"

I nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Ruiyang picked up the wine glass and said, "No, no! Miss, you are so polite! Alas, I am reluctant to say goodbye! Come, I will toast you and wish you a smooth journey, no danger, and a safe return to Qingqiu."

I raised my glass and accepted his toast.
