Just one pregnancy and four babies, but the prince actually pledged his love to her

On the official road from the capital to Wuning County, a low-key yet luxurious carriage was moving quickly.

Although the driver was driving the carriage very fast, the interior of the carriage was very stable. Even the tassels hanging on the walls of the carriage did not shake at all.

On the walls on both sides of the car, there is a small rosewood bookshelf, on which are placed several rare books and jade carvings.

The seats are made of fine mahogany and covered with exquisite satin embroidered with cloud and dragon patterns.

There is a footrest under the seat, which is also made of mahogany and carved with lotus patterns.

The floor of the carriage is covered with thick wool carpet, which is soft and comfortable to walk on.

The carriage has plenty of space and can easily accommodate three or four people.

On the small table made of rosewood, there is a set of warm jade chess pieces.

Ji Jingyi and Xie Ruiyuan are playing chess.

Ji Jingyi plays the white pieces, and Xie Ruiyuan plays the black pieces.

"When the dragon raises its head, the tiger lies down!" After Ji Jingyi placed the white piece, the white pieces on the chessboard changed instantly, like a giant dragon soaring into the sky and heading straight for the black pieces' camp.

Xie Ruiyuan said nothing, but calmly placed a piece. The black piece coiled like a giant dragon and easily blocked the attack of the white piece.

In this unusual chess game, the black and white pieces move rapidly across the board, sometimes like a tiger descending from a mountain, sometimes like a dragon playing in the water.

During the back and forth process, Xie Ruiyuan was well versed in the art of Go, and every move he made was full of dangers and traps.

Even if Ji Jingyi used his extraordinary wisdom and keen insight to resolve Xie Ruiyuan's attack.

However, as the game progressed, Xie Ruiyuan was able to trap the white dragon in a corner of the chessboard with precise calculations and clever layout.

"No, cousin, what's wrong with you today? You said you would give in to me, but you showed no mercy at every step."

Xie Ruiyuan won, but he was not happy. Instead, he felt even more depressed. He threw down the chess piece and said lazily, "Why did you follow me? Aren't you afraid that my aunt will be angry?"

"Of course I am afraid, but I told my mother that if she wanted to have a grandson, she should let me go. When my mother heard this, she immediately packed me up and threw me out, and also said that if she couldn't catch her daughter-in-law, she wouldn't have to go back."

When Xie Ruiyuan heard his cousin say this, he knew that it was something his aunt would do.

"The person you love is the girl who saved you in Qingshan."

"That's right, cousin, you don't know how cool that girl is. If she hadn't saved us, Afeng and I would have definitely been in trouble."

Afterwards, Ji Jingyi said a lot of good things about the girl.

But Xie Ruiyuan pointed out bluntly: "Do you know what the person's name is, where he lives, and whether he likes you?"

As soon as Xie Ruiyuan finished speaking, Ji Jingyi was dumbfounded. He really didn't know what his cousin said.

The situation was quite urgent at the time. He was afraid that his mother would worry, and he had the hard-earned evidence in his hands, so he couldn't afford to stay any longer.

This delay has lasted for more than a month, and it may not be easy to find it.

But he remembered that the girl knew medicine and went to the mountains to collect herbs, where she saw him and Afeng being chased by someone.

At worst, he could just go to the place where he met the girl and wait there. He didn't believe that he wouldn't be able to wait for her.

Seeing his cousin's determined look, Xie Ruiyuan felt inexplicably annoyed and prepared to write something to calm his mind.

But just as he picked up the pen, his heart suddenly beat wildly. He sat in a wheelchair, holding his heart. The ink that had just been dipped in the brush in his hand fell down and spread on the paper.

Xie Ruiyuan's face turned ugly. What happened? Could it be that the poison in his body had taken effect again?

Ji Jingyi was also shocked when he saw his cousin's appearance. He hurried to Xie Ruiyuan's side and shouted, "Where's the medicine? Where's the medicine prescribed by Doctor Luo Shen?"

Qingxi, who was driving, heard Ji Shizi's loud shouting and immediately stopped the carriage, and the carriage was suddenly in chaos.

The Li family in Xinghua Village.

The news that Li Mengyue had obtained another 10,000 ducks quickly spread throughout the village the next day.

Everyone was discussing whether to buy the duckling, but some far-sighted people went to Li's house without thinking at all.

I asked whether what Li Mengyue said before about selling ducklings still counted, and whether the price was one penny per duck.

After getting a definite answer from Li Mengyue, the visitor directly bought twenty and took them home.

Because he found that there were more and more locusts in the fields, and even with a net, the number that could be caught each day was limited.

But it’s different with ducklings. The ducklings can go to the fields to eat locusts every day, so they don’t need to be fed with food. When there are no locusts anymore, the ducklings will grow a lot bigger.

Even if there is no food to feed them at that time, they can take them to the town to sell for money. Only a fool would not do such a thing that kills two birds with one stone.

Once there is a chance, there will be a second chance. The villagers had not heard about the idea of ​​raising ducks from the village chief before, and with someone taking the lead, it was natural for them to accept it.

So after selling locusts, a long line formed in front of the Li family’s gate again. This time, people were not there to sell locusts, but to buy ducklings from the Li family.

Some bought ten, some bought twenty, some bought thirty, and some bought fifty.

After about an hour, every household in Xinghua Village had bought ducklings, and more than two thousand were sold at once.

After the villagers left, Li Mengyue asked Minghao to call the people who had worked for his family before to go to the wasteland at the foot of the mountain to help build a straw shed for the ducklings.

If you hire someone to work, of course you have to provide them with food.

Li Mengyue looked at the vegetables and grains at home and decided to make a simpler chicken noodle soup.

The pheasant that I got from the mountain has not been eaten yet. I prepare the pheasant, add seasoning, and then cook chicken soup.

Li Mengyue asked Li to help her and started kneading the dough and rolling the noodles.

Except for Li De, Li Dazhu, Li Erzhu, Wang Daniu, Wang Erniu and Li Youliang all came.

Li Mengyue had seen how much food several people ate before, so she didn't dare to make less noodles and made a whole pot of hand-rolled noodles in chicken soup.

By the time Li Dazhui and his colleagues finished their work, Li Mengyue had just finished cooking the noodles.

"Wow, Sister Mengyue, your cooking skills are simply amazing. I can smell the fragrance from far away." Wang Erniu said.

Li Erzhu joked, "Yeah, I didn't feel hungry at first, but when I smelled this, my stomach started growling."

"If you're hungry, eat more." Li Mengyue replied.

Soon everyone was served a big bowl of chicken noodle soup. The noodles were soft, smooth and chewy, paired with rich chicken soup. Before eating, the aroma of the chicken soup was so fragrant that it made people salivate.

Take a bite of noodles, drink a sip of chicken soup, and your whole mouth will be filled with the delicious aroma of chicken. You won’t want to stop eating.

Several people had eaten at Li's house before, and they knew that they had eaten too much, so Li Mengyue would not be unhappy.

So everyone ordered a second bowl, especially Wang Erniu, who ate two bowls. Seeing that there was still some soup left in the pot, he also served some.

"Auntie, Sister Mengyue, the chicken noodle soup you made is so delicious, hiccup."

Wang Daniu didn't even want to admit that this was his brother. It was too embarrassing.

Seeing that everyone was enjoying the meal, Li was also very happy.

Although there was not much food at home, she would not say anything if her daughter wanted to cook.

Besides, her family was in the business of collecting locusts, and she was well aware of the daily accounts. She knew that there was extra money at home, so she didn't have to worry about going hungry even if there was no harvest from the fields.
