Okay, if Ming is really convinced - what you say makes sense, I can't refute it!
Si Haochen looked at the whole cake and hesitated: "Shall we just eat this?"
"It needs to be cut like this." Mingruo took out the bamboo knife and small fork that he had prepared earlier.
"I'll cut it." Si Haochen cut a piece of cake and put it on a small plate.
The two of them had just had lunch, and Si Haochen only cut a very small piece, and each of them took two bites before finishing the meal.
After that, Mingruo put away the dishes and went to the kitchen to clean them.
Si Haochen looked at the shelves in the kitchen, which were filled with ingredients, and suddenly realized that his Ruo'er was a bit like a little squirrel in the forest, hoarding all kinds of dried fruits in the tree hole.
Seeing the little girl's busy back, Si Haochen helped Mingruo wash the dishes. Mingruo didn't refuse. His Royal Highness Prince Yun didn't usually do housework, and he didn't do much. But when there were only two of them, they still had to share the burden with each other.
of.
Mingruo put the washed dishes on the rack to drain, and had nothing else to do: "I'll show you around."
"Okay." Although Si Haochen was curious about this place, he did not move around.
On one side of the yard were plants that Si Haochen had never seen before, on the other side was a grape trellis filled with dark purple grapes, and further ahead was a small vegetable garden with various vegetables, and... standing on the bamboo fence
The bright red on it.
"Why is it here?" Si Haochen really didn't expect to see this red rooster here.
"I raised them all, so we can't just leave them in the house." Mingruo knelt down and brushed Dabai, who was nibbling on the vegetable leaves.
"Aren't you afraid that they will eat those precious medicinal materials?" Si Haochen glanced at the exotic flowers and plants on the other side of the yard. However, this vegetable garden was only surrounded by sparse fences, which could only serve as a boundary.
.
"Dahong and Dabai only live in the small vegetable garden and will not go anywhere else."
Mingruo naturally didn't say anything. After bringing these two into the space and giving them a drink of well water, he threatened them. If they dared to harm the medicinal materials, they would immediately make a "chicken and rabbit out of one pot". These two were actually
He is well-behaved and only spends time in the small vegetable garden every day.
Mingruo walked a little further, picked a peach and handed it to Si Haochen.
"Is this...that peach branch?" Si Haochen looked at the thick peach tree in front of him and was completely unable to connect it with the original peach branch.
"Yeah." Mingruo nodded.
Walking out of the yard surrounded by fences, there was a large field planted with rapeseeds, and next to it was a cornfield. Si Haochen could see that these were all ripe, but they had not been picked. In a large open space next to them, there were piles of rapeseeds.
The recently moved grain and grass look like several hills. Farther away, there are endless medicinal fields, with a winding stream meandering through...
"This place... is really big..." Si Haochen looked towards the mountains in the distance.
"We can't go up to the mountain yet. The boundary of the second level is right there." Mingruo picked a vine rose and played with it in his hands. "But this place is enough for now."
"Well." Si Haochen also knew that in order to upgrade the space to the third level, he needed to accumulate a lot of 'cases', so he did not stop the little girl from going to a medicine hall for consultation. "If there is any work here in the future, let me do it."
Do."
"You can have this!" Mingruo's big eyes were bright, "You can make me a swing and tie it to the ginkgo tree."
"Okay." Si Haochen thought about the structure of the swing, "It needs a wooden board and a rope."
"Here it is." Mingruo took Si Haochen to the back of the bamboo house.
There are many bamboo poles and wooden boards piled here, probably leftover from the bamboo house built by the previous owner.
Si Haochen selected a piece of suitable size, took out his dagger, and drilled four small holes in the four corners. He then found a hemp rope among the pile of materials and tied it to the wooden board: "The tree you chose
Where?"
"Over there." Mingruo led Si Haochen to a ginkgo tree next to the wooden house. The tree was very tall and had a thick branch growing out horizontally, which was perfect for tying a swing.
Si Haochen jumped directly to the tree trunk and tied the rope: "Do you need to go lower?"
"That's just right." Mingruo tried the height.
Si Haochen reinforced the rope before jumping off the tree crown: "I'll push you."
"Tie another one, let's sit down and talk." Mingruo just likes to sit on the swing, and it doesn't need to be very high.
"There's no need for one more, this is fine." Si Haochen sat on the swing and put Mingruo on his lap.
It's just that someone's legs are too long, so it's almost like sitting on a stool. However, if someone has good looks and is beautiful, other things don't matter.
"What do you want to say?"
"There's nothing special to say, but wouldn't it be a little weird not to say anything?"
"No." Si Haochen actually thinks that if he holds his princess like this, he won't feel bored even if he sits there all day long."
The two of them really didn't say anything, just sat quietly, enjoying this rare warmth and tranquility.
"By the way." Mingruo, who was leaning in a solid embrace, took out a small brocade box from his sleeve pocket, "This is your birthday gift."
Si Haochen took the brocade box and opened it. Inside was a silver wrench set with a large diamond. The corners of his lips curled up slightly: "This is good, it can dazzle the enemy."
"..." Are you sure that's how it is used?
"Is this...a diamond?" Si Haochen had seen diamonds before, but never seen such a dazzling one.
"Yeah." Mingruo nodded.
"My beloved, help me put it on." Si Haochen put the heavy ring finger on Mingruo's hand.
Mingruo took Si Haochen's hand and put it on him.
"I am not left-handed..." A row of black lines fell from Si Haochen's head.
Only then did Mingruo realize that the thumb ring was a 'practical object' in this era, unlike in later generations, where it had gradually become an accessory, and it didn't matter which hand it was worn on.
Mingruo quickly gave the 'practical object' to the generalissimo and transferred it to his right hand: "Remember to hit the target with every shot."
"Okay." Si Haochen hugged the little man in his arms tighter, "Today is the best birthday I have ever had..."
"Hehe." Mingruo hugged Si Haochen sideways.
"Do you eat cake on birthdays in your hometown?" Si Haochen was now sure that the hometown Mingruo mentioned was not Nanrong. However, he did not dare to ask where it was...
"Yeah." Mingruo nodded.
"Then I will make one for you on your birthday," Si Haochen said seriously.
"Can you make cakes?" A person who couldn't even cook noodles actually said that he wanted to make cakes. His Royal Highness Prince Yun is very ideal.
"I will start learning now, and I will be able to make it by then." Not only does the snack look exquisite, but it also tastes good. It can be seen that his princess must have lived a more luxurious life in her hometown than she does now. It cannot be because of
When she became his wife, I wronged her.
"I think you should learn to make longevity noodles, that one is easier." Mingruo said with a smile.
