I'll tell you the secret and let's laugh together!

"Do you know how worried your parents have been about you all these years? You're already grown up, but you don't know how to behave yourself? You left a letter and ran away. I was so worried about you that I couldn't sleep!"

"Sister, I was wrong." Although Guan Sanye shouted loudly, he did not dodge when he was beaten. Later, he stopped wailing, which made the queen soften her heart and she stood there silently and got beaten!

"Hmph!" The queen threw the stick away, "I won't hit you anymore. There will be family rules waiting for you when we get back home!"

The thin and tough brambles were very painful when they hit people. Guan Sanye's arms and legs were hurt by the beatings, but he still acted funny despite his disability, "I know my sister loves me the most."

"Madam, the ingredients are ready. Let's eat first. The ingredients are freshly picked and very fresh." Ning Zhiyi helped the queen walk back to the waterside pavilion.

Master Guan was moved. On the way here, he had learned the identities of everyone from Prince An. This girl from the Ning family is a good child!

"Wait until you're full before getting angry with Master San. By then, you'll have more energy to beat or scold me."

Guan Sanye: ...

He took back the emotion he had just felt.

"That's enough. You're such a grown-up, but you're so out of control. You're embarrassing yourself in front of the younger generation. Aren't you ashamed?" While Emperor Mu Wu was speaking, Eunuch Quanzhi untied Master Guan San.

He moved his sore wrist, smiled and saluted Emperor Mu Wu, saying, "I really know I was wrong this time, and I will never make the same mistake again!"

"Okay, sit down and eat."

"Thank you, sir." Master Guan San sat down with a smile, feeling moved again. The emperor was so kind to let him sit down to eat. He thought he would be punished by his sister to stand.

Receiving Master Guan Sanye's grateful look, Emperor Mu Wu stroked his beard and smiled profoundly. Just as the corners of his lips curled up a little, he heard the system say:

[Host, it turns out that those who can become emperors must not show their emotions. Look how kindly the emperor smiled at Guan Sanye. It doesn't look like he used to stir up trouble in front of the queen, making her so angry that she wanted to break Guan Sanye's legs.]

Guan Sanye: ???

He once again took back the emotion he had just felt.

Emperor Mu Wu turned his head and thought, what's going on with this bucket? It's just a bunch of nonsense. Let him think about how to make things right.

Ning Zhiyi was adjusting the temperature of the pot. If he didn't pay attention to the system, the others would lower their heads and their shoulders would tremble. After adjusting the pot, Ning Zhiyi briefly introduced how to eat it.

Several thin slices of meat were blanched and shared among Emperor Mu Wu and the Empress for tasting. There were two flavors of soup base, one spicy and the other tomato bone soup.

"It tastes spicy and refreshing, very good!" Emperor Mu Wu likes spicy food and this is very much to his taste.

"This has the flavor of June persimmon, not spicy, but very mellow."

"Yes, this pot is called a yucca pot. There is a partition in the middle, so you can put two different flavors of food in it. Oh, and here is the dipping sauce I prepared. It will taste better if you dip it in it."

Duan Han thought that as a good sister, it was her chance to show off, so she was the first to stand up, looking at Ning Zhiyi eagerly. She had to praise herself for being so sensible this time.

At least I have to say that good "sisters" have good eyesight.

"Sit down. Why are you standing up? No one asked you to stand as punishment." Looking at Duan Han's actions, Ning Zhiyi asked him to sit down quickly.

The others who wanted to stand up were stunned and retracted their actions.

Duan Han didn't understand why it was so difficult for him to hug his sister's legs.

Eunuch Quanzhi laid out the dipping sauce for everyone, and Ning Zhiyi said, "Everyone try this sauce, it tastes better when dipped in, it is the soul of this delicacy."

Want to eat standing up again?

Is it better to stand?

This is the first time I have heard such news. Could it be that the temperature in my mouth can rise while standing? Could this dish be cooked again in the mouths of myself and others?

Duan Han continued to show off himself with perseverance, while Prince An was simply idle and had nothing to do, so the two of them stood up together.

Ning Zhiyi used the serving chopsticks to pick up a few pieces of meat and dipped them in the sauce, then handed them to Grandpa Quan Zhi, "Master and Madam, try the dishes dipped in the sauce. It tastes better this way."

Everyone suddenly realized that this is how to dip it in water.

"Hey, my lord, why are you standing up again?"

"Haha, it's okay, stand up and stretch your muscles." Prince An laughed and sat down.

Master Guan San was hit hard. He had no appetite at first, but was attracted by the fragrant aroma and took a few bites. After the first bite, he couldn't stop.

Different dishes taste different after being blanched in the pot, and the taste is absolutely amazing when paired with dipping sauce.

When Emperor Mu Wu and the Empress were about 50% full, they left the table, as the children would feel uncomfortable with them.

After the emperor and empress left, the atmosphere became much more relaxed.

Guan Sanye said: "This is a very novel way to eat it. Wouldn't it be even better to eat it in winter?"

"Yes, this is called hot pot. It is the best to eat on a cold winter day. After eating it, your whole body will be warm."

"Ms. Ning has a lot of creative ideas. I admire her."

"I, Duan, admire you too!" Duan Han was determined to become Ning Zhiyi's 'good sister' and would not give up any opportunity to show herself.

While Duan Han was talking, Mo Feiyu and Prince An took away the venison he had placed in the pot. When Duan Han found out, the venison had already been swallowed by the two.

Duan Han:......

These two bad friends!

He looked at Princess Yong'an pitifully, hoping to win his beloved's sympathy by playing the victim, but Princess Yong'an lowered her head and did not look at him.

Duan Han: The child is feeling sad, but he won’t say it.

After the meal, the butler brought a tray with candied haws made from strawberries, persimmons, watermelons and other fruits. "This is a new type of candied haws made from fruits that the Ning Mansion chef has developed. Come and have a try."

Princess Yong'an and Qian Yueyue liked it very much and ate two skewers each. The other grown men didn't like sweet things so they ate one skewer each.

"Third Master, you have practiced Taoism for many years. Can you tell fortunes?" Ning Zhiyi asked on a whim.

Master Guan stopped wiping his hands and asked himself: Could he tell fortunes?

I have read many books on numerology, gossip, and the Book of Changes, but I really don’t know how to calculate!

"Know a little bit about it."

"Master San, don't be so modest. Why don't you tell our fortune for us?" Master San was the first Taoist priest Ning Zhiyi came into contact with. She wanted to learn fortune-telling, and it was always good to have many skills. It would be even better if she could find a disciple.

Master Guan San was silent. He told Ning Zhiyi's fortune himself. Stop making a fuss. He still wanted Ning Zhiyi to tell his fortune. This girl and the thin bucket beside her were a little magical. When Prince An just said this, he didn't quite believe it, but he believed it after experiencing it himself.

"Let me calculate." He pinched his fingers pretentiously, "You are a blessed girl. You have a full forehead and thick earlobes. These are signs of blessing. From what I have observed, you will have a smooth life and will be blessed in the future!"

"You will be blessed with good fortune in this life. Your destiny is special. All your wishes will come true, and you will also bring blessings to those around you."

He wiped the sweat off his forehead and carefully observed Ning Zhiyi's reaction. This was something he made up on the spur of the moment. Everyone likes to hear something nice, so it shouldn't be a surprise to say this, right?
