good meal

Chapter 142
"Why did fifth brother say that?" The prince looked at Meng Muchen suspiciously, and then showed a dazed expression, "Oh, look at my brain, why did I forget that fifth brother, you have always been to Ning An..."

"His Royal Highness, today is a major event in the palace, so please be cautious about what you say." Chu Chaoyang stood up and cupped his hands, with a serious face that could not be refuted, and his eyes swept coldly, revealing a different kind of majesty.

Seeing this scene, Chu Liangrao gently raised her hand to hold Chu Chaoyang's hand, stood up in front of everyone's attention, bowed to the prince and said, "As His Highness said, Ning An and His Highness Fifth are old friends. , this kind of thing is known to everyone here." Looking around, she said loudly, "Furthermore, Ning An's major life events are arranged by his father, and the prince does not need to worry about such trivial matters."

After saying that, someone at the guest table let out a gasp.

Unexpectedly, Chu Liangrao would confront the prince's face so directly, it seems that King Mingyang and the prince are really not on the same side.

But Chu Chaoyang gave his daughter a distressed look. This child has always been well-behaved and sensible. Today, he just wants to clear up his relationship with the royal family and at the same time prevent others from holding grudges against him.Backhand squeezed Chu Liangrao's small hand, and Chu Chaoyang shook it lightly.

Chu Liangrao raised his head and smiled at him, and said, "Father, is what Ning An said right?"

On such an occasion today, Chu Liangrao would not call daddy privately as usual, but Chu Chaoyang still felt warm, and patted his daughter's head with pity, and said, "Ning An is right, Ning An is right. As for Ann, this king has his own arrangements."

The conversation between the father and daughter naturally fell into the ears of others. The crown prince who was brushed off was naturally displeased, but fortunately he didn't get angry on the spot, but sat down and left the table with a sullen face.They also took Meng Muchen with them when they left. It seemed that the two brothers were going to settle accounts, and Princess Yin Hua would not stay long, so she also said goodbye.

Seeing the three dignified people leave the venue, the rest of the guests felt much more at ease.

And Chu Liangrao returned to his room, and changed out of his drenched little clothes.

I really didn't expect that His Highness the Crown Prince would make such a sudden move. Chu Liangrao was afraid for a while, thinking of the situation just now, she still couldn't let go of her brows.

"Princess, the hot water is ready, you can wash it." Zhu'er said softly.

"En." Chu Liangrao replied, but did not soak in the bathtub, just wiped his body with a wet handkerchief, then changed into clean clothes and went out to meet the guests.

These guests did not leave until it was time to light the lamps. Chu Chaoyang drank a lot of wine that day, and after seeing off the last guest, he went straight back to his room to rest, and left the rest of the stall to the old lady.

The old lady ordered people to tidy up without complaint, she said to Chu Liangrao who stayed behind to help: "It's nothing much, you've been tired for a day, go back and rest earlier." After a pause, she said again, "Don't go out these few days."

Chu Liangrao also knew that after today, there would be a lot of gossip about her, so she obediently agreed, and went back to her room to rest.

After lying on the couch for a while, Mother Du came in with Lilac, and seeing that Chu Liangrao didn't know she was covering her body, she said, "Princess, you can't do this even if you are tired. What if you catch a cold?" Got it?" As he spoke, he picked up a folded robe from the side and covered Chu Liangrao.

Chu Liangrao sat up, covered her mouth with her hands and yawned, and said, "I thought about going back to bed for a while, but I didn't expect to fall asleep right next to the pillow."

After hearing this, Mother Du felt distressed for a while, and said, "The Princess is troubled."

Lilac Ye on the side put down the tray in her hand, scooped out a bowl of purple soup from the stew pot and put it on the small table, she said: "Princess, the soup is ready."

"Yeah." Chu Liangrao twisted his neck, and picked up the soup bowl, only to see the purple soup paired with silver fish, which looked very pretty.This is whitebait and amaranth soup. Whitebait is rich in protein, calcium and phosphorus, which can nourish yin and tonify fatigue. It is most suitable to use a bowl right now.

Scooped it up with a small spoon and blew it, Chu Liangrao took a sip lightly, felt that the temperature and taste were good, and then used up the soup.

Seeing that Chu Liangrao had finished drinking, Mama Du said, "The princess doesn't need any supper anymore, and you haven't used much today."

Chu Liangrao picked up the handkerchief and dipped his mouth and said, "No need, I'm already full."

Du's mother looked worried: "How can I be full just by drinking soup..."

"Don't worry, mom, I'm not a child anymore." Chu Liangrao said with a smile.

It's all about talking in the past, but now that Chu Liangrao and Ji are here, Mother Du can't say anything more, so she has to let Ding Xiang clean up the bowl and leave.Mother Du was in charge of burning the incense, and after a while, the room was filled with an attractive fragrance.

Mother Du glanced at the fragrant cake in her hand, and couldn't help wondering: "Why has the taste of this fragrant cake changed?"

Chu Liangrao saw that what Mama Du was holding was the improved version of the fragrant cake that she had added essential oils, and said, "Mom, last time I bought it because I smelled it smells good, but I forgot to tell you."

"Look at what you said, princess. If you like it, just buy it. There's no need to tell mom." Mama Du didn't ask any more questions, put the remaining incense cakes into the brocade box, and then closed the lid of the incense burner and said, "This fragrance smells better than before."

"Mom thinks so too." Chu Liangrao smiled, secretly thinking that in the future, he could make some sachets as gifts, and then he would be able to attract more guests because of the sachets.Thinking about it, Chu Liangrao couldn't sit still, went straight to the table and began to write vigorously on the paper.

Mother Du saw that Chu Liangrao, who was still sleepy just now, suddenly became energetic, and knew that she was busy drawing those strange pictures again, but she also knew that her persuasion was useless, so she ordered Zhu'er to make another cup Ginseng tea comes in.

Chu Liangrao didn't take a sip until the ginseng tea cooled down. Looking at the messy paper in front of her, she spread out another blank paper and copied it again.Now, although her handwriting is not in the style of everyone, it has its own style, which is smooth and smooth, making people look very comfortable.

While writing and drawing, Ding Xiang came in to help grind the ink. After the ink was finished, she handed an envelope to Chu Liangrao: "Princess, this is the store deed."

Chu Liangrao was stunned for a moment, then took it over and opened it to see that it was definitely a store deed, with joy in her eyes, she said, "I didn't expect it to be so soon, I thought I would have to wait a few days."

"I heard from my father that the store owner was in a hurry to return to his hometown, so he went through the formalities in a hurry."

Chu Liangrao looked at the sky outside and said, "When did your father come?"

"He came after completing the formalities in Youshi, but the servant couldn't find a chance to meet him, so I asked Zhen'er for help." Ding Xiang said, "The servant just remembered this."
