Chapter 38 Hungry

Li Zhenbao shook his head blankly, "I don't know what it is. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hit Sister Jiang Er. You'd better take some emetics and see if you can vomit anything."

She felt very guilty and her little face wrinkled up.

Li Kai came over and said, "Maybe the sun is too bright and a halo of light shines down, but there is actually nothing."

Jiang Yixi thought about it. It was just a flash of light, and it wasn't poison. There was really no need to worry.

He smiled and said, "The prince is right, it's just a halo."

But Li Zhenbao was still frightened. She said that the cat-like thing was weird and was not interested in playing anymore. She took Li Kai to say goodbye and returned to the nunnery. In her opinion, when you are on the territory of Buddha and Bodhisattvas, you are not afraid of cat spirits.

.

Grandma Wu, Shuixiang, and Shui Ling were busy in the kitchen. When they heard something got into Jiang Yixi's mouth, they were so frightened that they ran over.

Shui Ling blamed herself so much that she even cried. She said, "It would be great if I were here. I have quick hands and feet and I will definitely knock that thing out."

Jiang Yixi explained, "There is nothing, just a ray of sunshine. It's not like you don't know that the little dieting master sometimes talks a lot. She said that the white clouds in the sky look like cats, and she even smiled at her. Did any of you see it?"

Several people looked at the sky again. The sun was shining brightly, the sky was blue, and there were a few different white clouds. Where was the cat? Where was the cat?

The little dieting master is indeed a bit confused and doesn’t know what to say.

Jiang Yixi went to see the thank-you gift from Prince Yong's Mansion. Two pieces of floral satin, two pieces of nine-silk soft silk, two pieces of haze gauze, a pair of half-person-high multicolored porcelain vases, a set of pastel porcelain teacups and teapots, and a

Red gold Pixiu ornament.

Jiang Yixi smiled brightly, Prince Yong's mansion was very generous.

The soft silk fabric is light and has dark flowers, which is perfect for summer clothes.

Jiang Yixi asked Nanny Wu to use lake blue soft fabric to cut Jiang Xun's two gowns, use magenta soft fabric to cut two jackets for herself, and haze gauze to cut a skirt. After cutting, several people sat in the corridor to make clothes and discuss them.

What kind of flowers can be embroidered on the collar and cuffs?

Jiang Yixi has grown up, and this is the first time she has used such good materials to make clothes.

Aunt Wu said, "Before my eldest aunt got married, the eldest lady used this material to make two sets of clothes for her and the third girl each. She even said that it was a gift from her natal family. Her natal family is much poorer than our uncle's house. How could this be possible?

To give such good materials, she must have bought them with her own money. She couldn't bear to give them to the second, third, and fifth girls, and she said those words to deceive people."

When she talked about this matter, her face was full of displeasure. The uncle's house earned a lot of money because of the second master, but he was reluctant to make good clothes for the second girl and the second master.

Jiang Yixi smiled, her stomach growled so loudly from hunger. Her stomach had never growled like this in her previous life, and she blushed with embarrassment.

Aunt Wu also heard the cry, and quickly stood up and said, "Oh, the girl is hungry. Shuiling went to light the fire, it's time to cook."

Dinner was put on the table, a plate of roasted pork with beans, a plate of braised hare, a plate of mixed courgettes, and a bowl of meatballs and winter melon soup.

Jiang Yixi was so angry that she ate up all the meat. She held her stomach and said, "Mommy, I'm hungry for fish. I'll get a fish tomorrow."

Aunt Wu and others were stunned. The girl usually only eats a little of these dishes, and the servants help her eat the rest.

Shui Ling wondered, "Girl, you ate more than my slave today."

Jiang Yixi's face was hot. She didn't know why she was suddenly so good at eating and especially liked meat. In fact, she wanted to eat more, but her stomach was almost bursting and she didn't dare to eat anymore.

Aunt Wu saw that her mistress was shy, so she smiled and said, "Maybe the girl will grow taller again, and she will be able to eat when she grows taller."

Seeing Jiang Yixi go to get the medical book, she quickly advised, "After eating so much, girl, go to the yard to eat."

Jiang Yixi also felt uncomfortable with her stomach being full, so she went to walk around in the yard to eat.

Looking at the brilliant sunset on the horizon, suddenly two blue beads appeared in front of her eyes. She blinked again, and it was still the brilliant sunset.

She felt that she had looked at the sunset for too long and her eyes were blurred.

When it got dark and she returned home, Jiang Yixi felt hungry again and wanted to eat hard-boiled eggs.

"Mommy, go and cook me two hard-boiled eggs. I want to eat them. Oh, cook three, no, four."

Grandma Wu was taking three girls to sew clothes, and her eyes widened when she heard this.

"Girl, what's the matter with you? Don't eat it, just be patient."

Jiang Yixi took hold of Nanny Wu's arm and coquettishly said, "No, I can't help it, I just want to eat it. Nanny, go and cook it for me. I'm so hungry that I'm panicking."

Shui Ling advised, "Girl, you can't eat anymore. It won't look good when you grow as strong as me."

Shuixiang also said, "Girl, you are most afraid of gaining weight, so you would rather eat less than two bites at night."

Jiang Yixi touched her belly, but she couldn't help it now. She just wanted to eat eggs, or egg yolks.

Grandma Wu looked at her girl and had to put down her sewing and go to the kitchen to boil eggs. She didn't dare to cook more eggs, so she only boiled two.

Jiang Yixi ate a few mouthfuls before she felt better.

She had never thought eggs tasted so delicious before.

Are you really going to grow taller? But when you grew taller before, you were not so able to eat.

——

In a small courtyard behind Zhaoming Nunnery, there are beautiful trees and flowers, surrounded by spring water. The fragrance of flowers is floating everywhere with the evening breeze. There are many glazed palace lanterns hanging in the corridor, illuminating the small courtyard.

Li Zhenbao was sitting in the yard looking at the sky, with a small incense burner at her feet to smoke out mosquitoes. She was not wearing a hat, and she had a ball on top of her head tied with a ribbon. If you didn't pay attention to the plain clothes on her body, you would have thought it was from an ordinary person.

little girl.

Li Kai walked in circles around her, looking up at the sky with her gaze from time to time.

The sky is filled with stars, a crescent moon hangs diagonally on the horizon, and there is not a single cloud.

Li Zhenbao wondered if the cloud-changing "cat spirit" didn't dare to show up when she was in the temple. But for some reason, she felt a little lost in her heart, feeling empty, as if she had lost some good treasure.

Obviously nothing was lost.

It must be under the influence of the old half-immortal. Yes, that must be the case.

She thought so, but she just felt uncomfortable and worried about gains and losses.

Li Kai stood down and looked at his sister and said, "I'm going back to Beijing tomorrow and will be with you in a few days."

Li Zhenbao's mouth pursed, "Humph, you keep saying you love me, but you still want to leave me here alone again. You are just like your father."

Li Kai chuckled and said, "My brother is greedy for meat."

"Rou" said it very quietly, for fear that the Bodhisattva would hear and blame him.

Li Zhenbao rolled her eyes at him and said, "I don't know if you are greedy for meat or women."

Li Kai hurriedly closed the big fan and stuffed it into his arms, clasped his hands together and said, "It's a sin, it's a sin. Don't blame me, Buddha and Bodhisattva, my sister is talking but not meaning."

Li Zhenbao snorted and ignored him.

Li Kai looked at his sister and smiled, "Sister, what do you think of Miss Jiang?"
