"Back to Your Majesty, I stayed at my grandfather's house for a few years when I was young, and then traveled around with them. People in the south eat spicy food, so they developed this habit."
"I see."
The emperor ate quickly and ate a lot, and in a short time he had eaten most of the food.
It was obvious that he was really hungry.
Lin Wanyi had eaten enough, so she rested her chopsticks and took the chopsticks from Dong Yuzhong's hand to serve the emperor.
To say that this dish is also very particular about the dish.
Everything must be twisted a little, but the emperor's taste must be taken into consideration and what he likes to eat.
After eating this meal, Lin Wanyi found it difficult to tell what he liked and didn't like.
He is really the emperor who benefits the world, even his meals are so balanced.
After the meal, the emperor got up and walked around.
The emperor was surprised, with disbelief in his eyes.
Just when I was on tenterhooks, I heard the emperor say calmly.
Although it went against the emperor's wishes, Dong Yuzhong also had good intentions.
The late emperor loved him like a treasure, and no matter how busy the court was, he would laugh and play with him.
"Then how did your grandfather know about this?"
Feeling a little exhausted, I called Dong Yuzhong and planned to go out for a walk.
After hearing this, Yu Wenhong also chuckled.
"My grandpa's family has been a long-standing merchant family. They have been doing business in the streets and alleys since our ancestors. This has been passed down from generation to generation. My great-grandfather's family migrated from Lingzhou to
Shengjing City has just settled down."
"I talk about everything. Sometimes I talk about anecdotes that my eldest brother has heard in the market, sometimes I talk about how my father and mother met when they were young, or about my maid and concubine traveling with my grandfather's family. As a family, there is always something to talk about.
."
"Is there such a thing?"
After a moment he asked.
When Lin Wanyi mentioned her family, her eyes became much gentler.
"So why do those Yao people want firewood?"
It was late at night, and it was raining outside just as Dong Yuzhong said.
Lin Wanyi covered her mouth and snickered. This was her grandfather's big secret.
"Of course, to the outside world, my grandfather has been in business for many years and has many connections. As for the truth..."
Not high and mighty, full of loneliness and loneliness.
"Because those Yao people are actually people of the Huo Yao tribe. They have believed in the God of Fire for generations. If they come with firewood, they are the messengers of the God of Fire. Naturally, they will rush to welcome them. If they need to do something, they will do their best to help.
of."
"I wonder if Your Majesty has ever heard of Bashan Yeyu?"
"Your Majesty, it's very windy outside, and I'm afraid it's going to rain. This spring rain is going on continuously, and I'm afraid it won't stop. For the sake of His Majesty's Holy Body, it's better not to go out."
Emperor Yu Wenhong looked at her puzzled.
I don't know if it's because she "programmed" his grandfather, but that cunning expression reminded him of some past memories of his youth.
It hit the ground, splashing small puddles one after another, and the branches in the courtyard were also beaten to the ground.
So he thought of it and deliberately teased the emperor.
The spring rain is like oil, hanging from the sky as thin as a curtain of beads.
So he opened his mouth to help Dong Yuzhong.
Lin Wan thought that the emperor would not reply, then raised her head and looked over, only to see that his face was not very good.
Lin Wanyi noticed something was wrong with the emperor's face. He seemed to want to go out again, but felt he couldn't get off the stage.
Lin Wanyi sat quietly on the edge of the collapse, thought for a while, then picked an interesting topic and told a story.
Unfortunately, this warm family atmosphere is what he wants but cannot get.
"When I saw the cart of firewood, I was very curious. Later, when I entered the elder's house, I realized that this was really the local rule. I made a fire with the firewood brought by my grandfather, cooked the meal, and had a lively meal.
, my grandfather handed over the list of purchases. My second uncle told me that others think that doing business with the Yao people is the most difficult, but they don’t know that they are actually the simplest and kindest. As long as you sincerely solve their problems,
Then the rest will be easy to talk about."
Could it be that I said something wrong somewhere?
Yu Wenhong could tell that their family had a good relationship.
His eyelids drooped and he said nothing.
"When my grandfather was young, he was attracted by a girl from the Yihuo Yao tribe and was almost asked to become his son-in-law, so naturally he knew some of the rules of the Fire tribe."
"Yes, I thought it was incredible when I first heard it."
"Grandpa said that if you want to eat other people's food, you naturally have to collect firewood to help others cook. I thought this was some local slang, but my grandfather actually took us to buy a cart of firewood and went to the local village.
Find an elder to have dinner with."
"My grandfather has followed his great-great-grandfather in doing various businesses in the city since he was a child, so he knows a lot about business. One year, my second uncle went to Yaozhou to collect medicines, and my grandfather happened to be going to buy them too, so my grandmother and I
Just go with them."
The voice was distant, but no emotion could be heard. At this moment, Lin Wanyi seemed to see a different emperor.
Born into a royal family, one is destined to have indifferent family ties.
"Isn't this a line from "The Night Rain Sends to the North"? What's wrong?"
"Your Majesty, do you want to know the truth or do you want to know externally?"
It's a pity that these all became memories when the late emperor passed away due to serious illness, and then came the helplessness and pain of being forced to grow up since he ascended the throne.
"What is it like externally? What is it really like?"
"Most of the people in Yaozhou are local Yao people, and there are very few people from the Central Plains. So as soon as we entered the territory of Yaozhou, we changed into their clothes, and we also used Yao language when talking to strangers."
"When I was at home, I planted a lot of bananas in the backyard, so every time it rained at night, my parents would take us brothers and sisters in the house to listen to the rain fall, and the family would sit around and talk, which was quite interesting.
.”
There are always people in his ears reminding him how to be an emperor who will go down in history, but no one cares that he is still a handsome young man.
Lin Wanyi's words made Emperor Yu Wenhong fall into deep thought.
"Tell me about your travels in the south."
"say what?"
He also had some happy times before he ascended the throne.
Dong Yuzhong looked embarrassed, pointed outside and said.
Lin Wanyi deliberately dragged out her voice to whet the emperor's appetite. Seeing that he was a little anxious, she opened her mouth to explain.
The candlelight cast their shadows on the bright window. One listened carefully and the other spoke interestingly.
From time to time there would be some laughter, not loud, but it sounded very relaxing.
Dong Yuzhong stood outside the door, holding the whisk he had used for many years in his hand, closing his eyes and enjoying this moment of tranquility.
Qiu Ming, who was on the side, walked over. Seeing his appearance, he couldn't help but ask.
