After returning to the capital, the eldest daughter saved her entire clan with her medical skills.

"Spinach in the dead of winter, during a blizzard?"

The princess stared in disbelief at the crisp, green spinach, wondering where the general's mansion had gotten such spinach in this cold weather.

"Your Highness, it was my youngest sister who planted it herself in the manor in the south. She planted it just to try it out, but it survived and grew well, so she had someone pick it and send it to the manor."

In the entire general's mansion, apart from the grandmother and mother, no one else knew the origin of these leafy green vegetables.

To avoid arousing suspicion, Xue Ruanruan could only attribute the origin of the vegetables to her master.

It must be pitiful for the master; he had already driven her out of the valley, yet he still had to take the blame for his disciple.

I wonder if that old man will be furious when he finds out.

"The divine physician planted them himself? No wonder there are still green vegetables in this heavy snow. The divine physician's medical skills are not only unfathomable, but even his vegetable planting is so extraordinary. I truly admire him."

The eldest princess suddenly realized that no matter how illogical something was, it could all be explained as long as it was connected to the divine physician.

"As expected of a divine doctor, her medical skills are extraordinary, but growing fresh vegetables in winter is something we've never heard of before. Miss Xue is truly envious to be able to become an apprentice of a divine doctor."

Madam Gu, Yan Ning, is straightforward and says what's on her mind, which makes her well-liked by everyone.

As the only two people who knew the true origin of the vegetables, Madam Xue and Princess Lingjun exchanged a silent glance before quickly looking away, afraid of being discovered.

This girl is quite bold; she even dared to deceive the eldest princess. If she were discovered, she would lose her head.

However, compared to that magical space, they would rather the soft girl use the divine doctor as a shield, even if it felt a bit unfair to the divine doctor.

She raised the children of the General's Mansion for so many years, personally taught them medicine, and yet she was still used as a scapegoat by Ruan Ruan. She is indeed a bit pitiful.

The legendary healer Ling Xuzi, who was thousands of miles away, had just taken a sip of wine when he suddenly felt an itch in his nose. He sniffed and exclaimed, "Achoo!"

Ling Xuzi sneezed loudly, almost knocking over the bowl of porridge in front of him. He hurriedly picked it up and held it tightly.

"It must be that wicked disciple talking badly about his master behind his back again. It's been almost a month since my disciple left the valley. I wonder if he has reunited with the General's Mansion yet."

Lingxuzi muttered to himself as he reluctantly finished the porridge in his bowl, then lay comfortably on the bamboo chair, closing his eyes to enjoy the midday sun.

As expected of the spiritual grains produced in this space, the taste is indeed sweet.

My disciple has been away from the valley for so long, I don't even know if he has arrived in the capital safely. I haven't even received a letter yet, what an unfilial disciple I am.

It's freezing cold outside with blizzards raging, but with his spatial ability, the wicked disciple should be safe.

Lingxuzi leaned back in the bamboo chair and slowly fell asleep.

Xue Ruanruan smiled but didn't say anything. If they had really been separated from their families since childhood and hidden in Medicine King Valley with their master, afraid to come out, eating wild vegetable porridge for more than a month and being forced to deal with those poisonous creatures, they probably wouldn't have wanted to.

Her master did teach her a lot of skills, but it wasn't as glamorous as it seemed on the surface. From a young age, she was made to memorize the names and effects of medicinal herbs and deal with poisonous insects and snakes. Without a strong heart, she wouldn't be able to do it.

Princess Qingyue looked at the cold dishes on the table, her mouth watering, but she couldn't express it directly because of her status. Her fair and delicate face was almost scrunched up like a meat bun.

Madam Xue naturally noticed Princess Qingyue's eagerness. "Princess, please try a few cold dishes first. The hot dishes will be served soon."

"Very well, I've heard from the two children that the General's Mansion has a variety of delicious dishes. Today, I'll have a good taste and see how they differ from those made by the chefs in the mansion."

The princess looked at the several brightly colored cold dishes with curiosity and picked up her chopsticks to pick up some spinach and vermicelli.

The combination of the smooth, white vermicelli and the crisp, green spinach creates a refreshing and delicious flavor.

It wouldn't be a big deal in the summer, but it's winter, and even the princess's residence rarely gets to eat such fresh vegetables.

The others stared intently at the princess, waiting for her to finish eating and give her instructions before daring to pick up their chopsticks.

"What is this white thing? It has a tender and smooth texture, and the spinach is sweet and refreshing. It tastes great."

The aroma is delicate with a hint of sweetness, mixed with the fragrance of minced garlic that spreads in the mouth, stimulating the tip of the tongue and brightening her eyes.

No wonder the two children were clamoring to come to the General's Mansion for a banquet. Jun'er didn't even want to eat at the mansion, preferring to go hungry rather than miss the opportunity to have a full meal at the General's Mansion.

I initially thought the child was just tired of the food prepared by their own cook and was making a fuss because they found the Beppu cuisine novel.

In retrospect, she had misunderstood.

This spinach and vermicelli dish alone was already better than her chef's best cold shredded chicken salad, and she suddenly felt a bit excited for the hot dishes that hadn't been served yet.

"Your Highness, this white stuff is called vermicelli. I invented it when I was in Medicine King Valley."

"Fans? What a unique name! Everyone, don't just stand there, let's eat!"

When the princess saw that everyone at the table was looking at her, she suddenly realized that she had been so focused on eating that she had forgotten about everyone else.

"I also want to try this spinach and vermicelli dish. I've never seen it before."

Princess Qingyue looked at Xue Ruanruan and asked curiously.

"Your Highness, the spinach was not delivered to the manor until last night, so I took the liberty of adding this dish for everyone to try."

Xue Ruanruan didn't expect Princess Qingyue to ask this question. Could she tell her that the spinach and vermicelli dish was something she added to the menu on a whim?

This would make it seem like they don't value the guests, so they can only lie through their teeth and make up some excuse.

Madam Xue felt dizzy listening to this; this girl really dared to fool anyone.

It wasn't delivered last night; it was clearly spinach she accidentally stepped on in that space, bent down and casually pulled up a few, saying she'd save them to make an extra dish today.

Princess Lingjun couldn't bear to scold her daughter. She lowered her eyes to look at the teacup in front of her. The emerald green tea leaves floated on the surface of the water, emitting a faint fragrance. She picked it up and took a small sip.

The tea today is exceptionally fragrant and mellow, and a warm feeling washes over me, making me feel very comfortable.

"No wonder I didn't get to eat it last time I came. The spinach and vermicelli was delicious, I liked it."

Princess Qingyue wasn't one for scheming; she believed whatever Xue Ruanruan said without a second thought.

Even if you have doubts, what can you do? As long as there's no poison in the food and it tastes good, that's all that matters.

"Second sister left some for Jun'er, but you ate them all."

Xu Zijun, Xue Li, Gu Mingcheng, and the other children couldn't sit still. They went out to play and came back to find that dinner had already been served. Before they could even sit down, they were already staring anxiously.

The cold dishes were prepared only out of courtesy. Since the weather was cold now, I suppose no one would like to eat cold food, so Xue Ruanruan instructed the kitchen to use delicate bowls and plates to serve them.
