Mingruo put the prepared food on the table, and Si Haochen smiled and asked, "Where are your dumplings?"
"Dumplings are also called dumplings, and they are eaten at midnight." Mingruo served Si Haochen a bowl of chicken soup, "After dinner, let's make dumplings together."
"Okay." Si Haochen looked at the dishes on the table and suddenly remembered that in previous palace banquets, each dish would have a rich and auspicious name, "What is the meaning of these dishes you prepared?"
"Of course there is." Fortunately, there are only four dishes and one soup, so making up lies doesn't use up too many brain cells. "The braised fish means more than enough every year, the braised pork with bamboo shoots means rising, the sweet and sour pork ribs means sweet days, and the tomatoes
The scrambled eggs are booming, and the chicken soup is auspicious.
His Royal Highness, Prince Yun, after hearing so many auspicious words, remember to wrap up the New Year's red envelope later."
"You know, I don't have any money with me." Si Haochen said with a smile.
"Okay..." Ming Ruo shrugged indifferently and went to chew the ribs wholeheartedly.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, Mingruo took out the noodles and fillings for making dumplings.
"What do you want me to do?" Si Haochen rolled up his sleeves.
"You watch me make it first." Mingruo cut the dough, rolled out the dough, and made a crescent-shaped dumpling. "That's it. What do you want to do?"
Si Haochen judged the difficulty of each job: "I make leather."
"Okay." Mingruo picked up a dough, explained the key points, and slowly rolled out a piece of dough, "Come and try it."
Si Haochen didn't do well at first, but he learned things quickly and mastered the method after only a few attempts. After that, the two of them worked together very well.
"The fillings are all the same, why do they have to be lace?"
"There is no salt in these. They are made for Xiaobai." Mingruo explained seriously.
"..." Si Haochen's eyes flashed slightly, "Then I want to cover it too."
Mingruo felt that Si Haochen was trying to cause trouble: "Don't bully Xiaobai."
"I made dumplings for it with my own hands. Why are you bullying it?"
"Okay then." Mingruo took a pair of chopsticks and handed them to Si Haochen.
Si Haochen practiced with the dumplings given to Xiaobai without any pressure. The work was really... bizarre and uncanny.
"Stop!" This look...will affect Xiaobai's appetite.
"Yeah." Si Haochen's original intention was not to cause trouble, but...these results...if he said he was not causing trouble, no one would believe it.
"Mingruo..."
"Huh?" Mingruo raised his head and looked at Si Haochen.
"What do you want to do in the future, or where do you want to live?" Now that she has been identified as his wife, her thoughts and wishes will become factors that he must consider when he acts.
Hearing Si Haochen ask this question, Ming Ming suddenly realized that his heart disease has been cured, so there is no need for Dr. Ke Qing. Ming Ruo remembers clearly that Si Haochen once said that Prince Yun's Mansion does not support idlers. Although
I feel a little bit reluctant to leave, but this is indeed an excellent opportunity to leave the imperial capital.
Si Haochen stared at Mingruo for a moment, and saw that the expression on her face changed from stunned at first, to understanding, and finally to a trace of relief. Si Haochen had a premonition that he might have messed up the matter.
"Then I... won't go back to the palace. If the emperor asks, just tell me that I fell off the cliff and saw no one alive or dead..." Ming Ruo looked at what Si Haochen was going to say and said very understandingly,
"Prince Yun's palace doesn't support idle people, I know that."
Si Haochen's chest felt like it had been hit by a heavy object, and there was a dull, dull pain. He wanted to go back to that moment and beat himself up for saying this - why did he say such indifferent words? Then
At that time, they had just come out of the underground palace, and she had experienced regretful marriage, forced marriage, and burial... At that time, she was panicked and helpless, but as her husband, she told her that Prince Yun's palace did not support idle people... She should be very sad,
That’s why I remember this sentence so clearly.
"You are not an idler." Si Haochen suddenly stood up and hugged Mingruo into his arms, "I was wrong. Can I take back those bastard words now?"
Ming Ruo's back stiffened and she put her hand against Si Haochen's chest, but she couldn't shake the shackles at all: "Actually, this is a good opportunity. If I go back with you, I have to occupy Princess Yun's
Position. In the future, when you meet someone you like, it will be more troublesome. I am the princess of Nanrong, and the emperor granted me the marriage... Divorce and divorce are unlikely."
"No!" Si Haochen tightened his grip on Ming Ruo.
"You...you don't want me to die suddenly." Mingruo's body trembled, "We have lived and died together for several times, at least we can 'separate the two, and live happily'."
"
"No!" Si Haochen said through gritted teeth.
"What do you want!" Mingruo tried to struggle a few more times, but Si Haochen's arms were like iron pincers, "Do you have to strangle me to death? This is too painful. I want to take poison, is that okay?"
"
Si Haochen was so frightened that he let go of his hand, and then he was afraid that Mingruo would suddenly disappear, so he gently put it back in his arms: "I will not like others, nor will I divorce, let alone divorce my wife. You are my wife,
I only like you."
"..." This sudden confession shocked Mingruo and caught her off guard, "I...I think...don't be impulsive first, and then think about it carefully..."
"No need to think about it again, I'm not acting on a whim." Si Haochen frowned slightly.
"I like other people, right?" Mingruo tried to help Si Haochen analyze, "You may just be used to my company. When you see me leaving, you feel a little reluctant to leave, and you think it's because you like me. But
In fact, that's not the case. If you compare it carefully, it must be different."
"..." Si Haochen didn't understand why Mingruo didn't believe that he liked her. "Except for you, I have never liked anyone else. There is no way to compare."
"Uh..." Mingruo stared at Si Haochen in shock. He didn't like her and still had a child with her. He was definitely a scumbag!
"Are you stupid?" Si Haochen smiled and pinched Mingruo's cheek.
Mingruo pushed Si Haochen's hand away, and her voice was colder than ever before: "Don't touch me, you scumbag!"
Si Haochen simply couldn't figure out why Mingruo was so angry even though he said he only liked her. Didn't a woman hope that her husband would only love her?
"Why are you angry?" In Si Haochen's more than 20 years of life, he has never been so confused as now.
"I don't want to talk to you!" Mingruo had never thought that Si Haochen was this kind of person.
"What did I do wrong, not talking to me?!" Si Haochen held Mingruo's shoulders with one hand and her chin with the other, forcing her to look directly into his eyes, "Do you want me to like someone else?"
woman?"
"I... would rather you like her!" Mingruo took a deep breath, broke free from Si Haochen's grasp, and turned away.
