Jiayin hugged the boiled corn and gnawed it happily. Seeing the yellow steamed potatoes right in front of her eyes, some of the parts next to the pot were half-burnt, she hurriedly finished the last bite of the corn and then went to get the potatoes.
As a result, she chewed the last bite a little too hard, and her mouth hurt so much that she screamed and jumped up.
Everyone was shocked and asked what happened to her.
Jiayin opened her mouth and spit out a few corn kernels, with a small deciduous tooth mixed in the middle.
It turns out that one of her lower front teeth was laid off!
"Oh, Fu Niu'er lost her tooth!"
"Haha, the little girl has grown up and started to change her teeth."
"The little gap tooth is so cute."
This tooth didn't move much before, but now it has fallen out a bit. Suddenly, there was some blood on the fracture.
Everyone was afraid of Jiayin and tried their best to tease her.
Jiayin gritted her teeth and was really dumbfounded.
When she lost her front teeth in her previous life, she didn't know why, but she didn't grow new teeth for some reason, but she was often laughed at by children her age.
As a human again, I have to experience such an embarrassing moment as losing my teeth again!
Li Laosi felt sorry for his daughter, but he couldn't bear to let her feel sad. He hugged her directly, stepped out of the door with a small tooth as big as a soybean, and then held his daughter up and let her throw the tooth onto the roof.
At the end, he smiled and coaxed his daughter, "Throw your lower teeth on the roof, and Fu Niu'er's new teeth will grow out soon!"
"Well, thank you, Dad!" Fu Niu'er grinned habitually, baring her teeth. As a result, the cold wind coming in through the hole in her teeth reminded her of the fact that she had become toothless, so she quickly reached out to cover her mouth.
Everyone laughed unkindly.
Jiayin was helpless at being laughed at, so she simply let go, ran to grab half of the steamed potatoes, smeared them with chili and stewed them, and ate them.
The soft and glutinous steamed potatoes were slightly salty and spicy, which was unexpectedly suitable for her weak teeth.
Unfortunately, she only took two bites before her mother snatched it away.
Tao Hongying stuffed her daughter's half-eaten potatoes into her mouth and ate them in two or three bites. Then she gave her daughter a new one without chili peppers and said, "Chili peppers are very hot. You just lost a tooth, so you can't eat it. Be careful not to grow new teeth in the future." !"
This threat pierced Jiayin's heart. No matter how greedy she was, she could only obey.
Everyone was chatting and eating and drinking, and asked Li Laosi about the situation in Jiangbei. Li Laosi picked out some things he could talk about and said them briefly.
Everyone couldn't help but feel a little sad when they thought of their hometown.
In fact, Li Laosi didn't say anything, they also knew that no matter how good the city was, it would not be left intact if it fell into the hands of the barbarians.
There are also those people who did not move to the south of the Yangtze River in time. It is better to be killed directly by the barbarians. At least they will be happy.
But those who were imprisoned as slaves, now unable to survive or die, are the worst...
After eating, everyone went back to rest with heavy hearts.
Tao Hongying wanted to help clean up the kitchen, but Mrs. Li pushed her back to the room early.
The couple have been separated for so long, and it's time for them to get intimate. Maybe they can give Jiayin a younger brother...
Not to mention how happy the Li family is because Li Laosi has returned. It's just that the Marquis entered Xindu and went straight to the capital. Went to the palace. He had been away for a few months, and Jiangbei was the territory of the barbarians. Communication with Jiangnan was inconvenient, so he really accumulated a lot of things.
The emperor was also looking forward to him. When he saw him kneeling when he entered the door, he helped him up, "Cousin, you are back. How was this expedition? Are there any injuries?"
"Thanks to the emperor, I have some minor injuries. No serious injuries." Mr. Hou smiled and responded.
The emperor was worried and immediately called the imperial physician.
The imperial doctor originally thought there was something wrong with the emperor's dragon body and was frightened to death. However, he was relieved when he found out that he was checking the body of Marquis Xinting.
After busying for a long time, the imperial doctor knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, the Marquis has no major injuries on his body, and the few minor wounds have been treated well, so that the root of the disease will not be too serious.
"But the Marquis is away on war, so he cannot eat three meals on time. , and sleep less, so it is severely deficient in qi and blood, so it is best to keep it for a while, otherwise... otherwise it will affect the life span.
The emperor became cold-faced at that time and immediately ordered the imperial physician, "Prescribe the tonic, immediately! " The necessary medicinal materials are obtained from the inner treasury and must be restored to the body of the Marquis.
"Yes, Your Majesty. " "The imperial doctor hurriedly retreated. The chief eunuch was worried that the young eunuch was running errands, so he went to write prescriptions and get medicinal materials.
In the imperial study, the emperor took the Marquis to sit opposite him, poured tea for the Marquis with his own hands, and said: "Cousin, Thank you for your hard work. Without you, there would be no peace in Jiangnan today. "
Your Majesty, please don't say that. The soldiers are all loyal and brave. I am just leading them." The Marquis said modestly, and then said: "In this expedition, as many as three thousand barbarians were killed. Before the spring of next year, the barbarians will no longer have the strength to invade, so we can rest assured about the autumn harvest and winter."
"Okay, okay! " The emperor was extremely happy, "There will be a good harvest of corn and potatoes soon. The harvest will be enough to make seeds. Next year, planting in Jiangnan will be fully promoted."
"When the national treasury is abundant and the food has been hoarded, we can launch a massive counterattack and regain Jiangbei."
The Marquis nodded, and when he was about to speak, there was a noise outside the hall door.
The emperor frowned and asked loudly: "What happened?"
Immediately, a young eunuch came in from the outside and reported with a troubled expression, "Back to the emperor, it was the third princess who made the tonic soup with her own hands and wanted to give it to the emperor. The servant said You and the Marquis are discussing important matters again. The princess doesn't believe it..."
Before he could finish speaking, the third princess had already walked in with a tray. When she saw the Marquis sitting drinking tea, her face suddenly turned pale and her hands The inner tray also fell down.
During this period of time, she was moved out of Kunning Palace and lived alone. Without the protection of her mother, and the strict upbringing of her nanny, it was really miserable.
Today, she finally took advantage of the opportunity of learning how to cook and stewed a tonic soup, thinking that she could serve it to her father and ask him to let her move back to Kunning Palace.
Who would have thought... that I would meet Marquis Xinting!
Even the rough eunuchs and eunuchs who sweep the floors in the palace know that Marquis Xinting is a murderer. I heard that he was fighting in Jiangbei and was so hungry that he roasted the barbarians like pheasants and ate them...
She had just bullied Princess Kangle, Xinting Did Hou come to settle a score with her? !
"Ah! Help!" The third princess became more and more frightened as she thought about it. She screamed and ran away.
There was left behind a frightened little eunuch, a frowning and confused Lord Marquis, and... a dark-faced Emperor.
The little eunuch finally stopped being stupid and quickly packed up the tray and broken dishes before retreating.
The Marquis coughed twice and said to the emperor: "Am I too murderous and scared the princess?"
The emperor knew very well what this unfulfilled daughter was afraid of, but he couldn't say it, so he said: "No. Talk to her, you are worthless!"
Just at this time, the chief eunuch rushed back. When he saw the mess in the room, he really scolded the little eunuchs in his heart, but he still smiled and stepped forward to report, "Your Majesty, the prescription is ready. , the medicinal materials are also prepared, and the old slave ordered them to be sent to the Marquis Mansion."
The emperor nodded and ordered: "Tell the imperial kitchen to cook more delicious dishes that the Marquis likes to eat."
"Yes, Your Majesty." The chief eunuch responded and called the little eunuchs to clean up the house quickly and then closed the door...
