Mingyue and Qingfeng only remembered the other two snacks after hearing Li Liuyun's words. So they put down their porridge and started eating shrimp dumplings and shumai. The two children didn't have big appetites to begin with, and they drank more than half a bowl of porridge. Then they ate shrimp dumplings, shumai, and custard buns, and were almost full.

Li Liuyun looked at the few mouthfuls of porridge left in their bowls and said with a smile, "If you can't finish the porridge, don't eat anymore. Don't overeat."

Mingyue frowned and said, "But my father and mother said that we shouldn't waste food. Every winter, the uncles at the border don't have enough to eat."

Qingfeng nodded: "Father and Mother are right, we can't waste food! It's okay, little sister, brother will help you eat, brother can finish it."

After Qingfeng finished speaking, he picked up Mingyue's bowl and poured the two mouthfuls of porridge left in it into his own. Then he picked up a spoon and drank it down in big gulps.

Just after they finished drinking, Li Liuyun and Nangong Li heard Qingfeng burp.

Li Liuyun chuckled: "Look how full you are! Are you feeling unwell? If you are, your aunt will get you a hawthorn pill to help with digestion."

Qingfeng shook his head: "No need, Auntie. I'll just walk around the room a few more times. My mother always said that medicine is three parts poison, so it's best to avoid taking it if possible."

Mingyue got off the chair: "Brother, Yue'er will walk with you!"

"Okay! Let's walk around a few more times together to help with digestion!"

After finishing their breakfast, Li Liuyun and Nangong Li looked at the two children and remembered their appointment with Chu Batian earlier that day.

Li Liuyun glanced at the time and looked at Nangong Li: "Why don't you stay at the inn with the child this morning, and I'll go see him myself?"

Nangong Li pouted: "But I want to go with you!"

Li Liuyun looked at the two children again: "What should we do with these two children?"

After overhearing Li Liuyun and Nangong Li's conversation, Qingfeng sensibly said, "Auntie, Uncle, Mingyue and I can stay at the inn by ourselves. We definitely won't run around, so don't worry!"

"no!"

"no!"

Li Liuyun and Nangong Li's voices rang out at the same time, startling Qingfeng and Mingyue.

Li Liuyun quickly said, "Did we scare you? Your uncle and aunt didn't mean it. It's just that you two are still too young, and we can only feel at ease if someone is with you to watch over you!"

Just then, there was a knock on the door. Nangong Li stood up and opened the door. Seeing the two people standing in the doorway, Nangong Li turned to Li Liuyun and said, "Yun'er, don't worry about it. I'll go with you. Someone will help us look after the child!"

The two people outside the door were both surprised when they heard Nangong Li's words and stood there in place!

Nangong Li opened the door wide, and Li Liuyun then saw the two people standing outside, who turned out to be Wushuang and An Yi.

Wushuang and An Yi followed Nangong Li in and were quite surprised to see two beautiful children in the room who looked exactly alike.

An Yi stammered, "Master, Princess, when did you have two children this big?"

Wushuang kicked An Yi: "Can't you use your brain when you speak? Look how old these two children are! Didn't the hidden guards say before that the master and the princess saved two children? These must be them!"

Li Liuyun nodded: "Wushuang is right. These two children are the same two we were talking about before. They are the eldest prince's children. We have important business to attend to today, and we were just worried that no one would look after these two children."

"Now that you're here, why don't you help out and look after them? By the way, you two arrived so early, have you had breakfast yet?"

An Yi was about to nod when Wu Shuang pulled him back. Wu Shuang smiled and said, "An Yi and I just arrived here. We heard that Master and the Princess were here, so we came to pay our respects. We haven't had breakfast yet!"

An Yi then realized what was happening and quickly nodded, "Yes, Your Highness, we haven't had breakfast yet. I wonder if Your Highness has any leftovers? We can just have whatever we have!"

Nangong Li saw through their little tricks, but didn't expose them, after all, he was counting on these two to help him take care of the kids!

Li Liuyun smiled and nodded. "Then go downstairs and get two sets of bowls and chopsticks! Also, please take these bowls down with you so the kitchen can wash them. We made a little too much breakfast today, but we don't have any extra bowls and chopsticks!"

After hearing Li Liuyun's words, Wushuang and An Yi picked up the bowls and chopsticks and placed them on the tray. The two of them then went downstairs together.

An Yi was a little confused: "Why did you come downstairs with me when you could have just taken the bowls and chopsticks by yourself?"

Wushuang gave An Yi a meaningful look: "I want to stretch my legs a bit so I can eat more later! After all, we both ate this morning. What if we can't eat anything later? Wouldn't we be exposed? Then there won't be any good food left to eat."

An Yi suddenly realized and said, "Damn, you're so smart! I almost said I'd already eaten! No, I have to go for a run later before going upstairs!"

Upon hearing An Yi's words, Wu Shuang couldn't help but think to herself: If I don't come out, where will the princess get us food?

Ever since the incident of the earth dragon turning over, Wushuang had a vague suspicion that his master was no ordinary person. The things he brought out were things that had never been heard of or seen in this world! He could even create things out of thin air!

But he also knew what he should ask and what he shouldn't. In any case, he was determined to follow his master for the rest of his life. Whether his master was an immortal or a demon, he had already decided on this master and would never betray him. Rather than making his master think of reasons to explain, he would rather take the initiative to avoid him!

As soon as An Yi and Wu Shuang left, Li Liuyun gave Nangong Li a wink. Nangong Li took out a Go board from a drawer in the room and led the two children to the window: "You two play here for a while. Your auntie needs to prepare breakfast for your two uncles."

Qingfeng and Mingyue nodded, and soon they saw Li Liuyun and the others take out another food box from a corner out of their sight. They took out some snacks from it, which were the same ones they had eaten that morning.

Li Liuyun explained again, "My uncle and I are going out to meet a friend in a little while, and we originally planned to take these with us as gifts for him."

Qingfeng and Mingyue nodded after hearing this. No wonder their aunt did so much; she wanted to bring it to her friends.

After a short while, Wushuang and An Yi took two sets of bowls and chopsticks upstairs. When they pushed open the door and came in, they found several new snacks on the table that they had never seen before. Wushuang had eaten preserved egg and lean pork congee before, so it wasn't anything new to him.

An Yi, seeing this for the first time, asked curiously, "Your Highness, what's in this dark-colored porridge?"

Wushuang smiled and said, "This is congee with preserved egg and lean pork. It's delicious. I haven't had it in a long time. I want a big bowl!"

Seeing the snacks and porridge on the table, Wushuang understood. Although he had already guessed, he was still shocked. He had already looked around the room when he entered and there were no extra food boxes. It seemed that he would have to help his master cover up in the future!
