nd with even more pride and replied, “Of course I did. We got fifty jin of peanuts, enough to plant twenty mu of land. And we also got sweet potato seedlings for twenty mu of land. As for the remainin...Jia Yin stuck out her tongue and obediently ate all the food.

The Emperor also ate together, even personally making a duck meat roll for Jia Yin. Holding the delicious food, Jia Yin didn't forget to compliment her mother.

"My mother is the best! She cooks the tastiest meals! My mother is the smartest, she can cook any dish just by looking at a recipe! I'm so smart, just like my mother!"

The emperor was laughing uncontrollably. Tao Hongying, on the other hand, blushed from listening to her daughter's words and couldn't stop her mouth. She quickly retreated outside the pavilion.

If she had known it was the Emperor himself who came, she wouldn't have come.

She had originally guessed that the Marquis was being so secretive, he must have brought a woman over to admire the flowers. She thought about sneaking a peek and telling her mother...

Indeed, curiosity can be a dangerous thing!

The Marquis and the Emperor were cousins, and often stayed in the palace to dine together. They were already accustomed to it.

Jia Yin is a young child, so she doesn't understand the rules and no one would blame her.

Li Laosi was brave and rough, seeming not to care much. He ate as well, big and carefree.

Only Li Laoer and Mr. Wen were left, having eaten until they were exhausted.

Finally, when the emperor had finished his meal, they quickly put down their chopsticks.

The lord held his chubby daughter, rubbing her round little belly.

It was Li Lao Si who folded the leftover dishes together and ate them all in a few bites.

Even the vegetable soup was wiped clean with steamed buns, not a drop left.

The emperor couldn't help but say, "General Li is indeed frugal and doesn't waste food."

Li Laosì chuckled and replied, “Although our lives are better now, we suffered a lot during the famine years. Especially when we were in the mountains, we had to rack our brains to find even a little bit of food, all while taking care of the elderly and children.”

"I could always eat before. Day and night, I always felt empty in my stomach. So now, this habit has developed, anything edible, I want to put it in my mouth, not daring to waste a single bit!"

The Emperor nodded, a hint of gloom in his eyes. “It’s my fault as emperor that I haven’t done enough, causing the people to suffer along with me.”

"No, Your Majesty," Li Laosi quickly waved his hand. "My mother always said that it's hard to be poor! Whoever is in charge knows the hardships. Our Tianwu didn't have grain or money before, and it was normal to not be able to defeat the barbarians."

Now that we have grain and silver in the national treasury, we can certainly drive the barbarians back to their homeland and reclaim the north of the Yangtze River.

"As I said before, Your Majesty is responsible for accumulating food and silver. As for killing the barbarians, we soldiers will take care of it. In two or three years at most, our Tianwu army will surely be the strongest in the world!"

The Emperor was accustomed to the sycophancy of his scholars, so when he heard these few words from Old Fourth Li, even with their hint of rebelliousness, they sounded unexpectedly pleasing to his ears. His heart felt light and at ease.

He couldn't help but say, "Good, General Li is right! With our emperor and ministers united, we will surely recover our lost territory and restore the glorious age of Tianwu."

Mr. Wen, Lao Er Li, Lord Hou, even the guards outside the pavilion and Tao Hongying and others all knelt down, shouting in unison, "Reclaim the rivers and mountains, restore our prosperous era!"

"Good, good!" The Emperor personally helped the Marquis up and was about to help Mr. Wen and others, but he was amused by Jia Yin's words and started laughing.

The little girl, probably having eaten too much, knelt on the ground and found it uncomfortable. So she simply lay down flat, performing an incredibly devout five-body prostration!

The Emperor scooped up the little chubby girl and burst into laughter, “This child is truly blessed. Even with all my worries, seeing her makes me smile uncontrollably.”

After saying this, he asked Jiayin, "Today, the emperor was very happy to see you and wants to grant you a wish. Is there anything you desire"

Upon hearing this, the crowd did not show any surprise but instead had a hint of anxiety in their eyes.

Though the Li family doesn't frequently appear in the elite circle of Xin City nowadays, they have undeniably become a prominent nouveau riche.

Recently, because of Mr. Wen's affairs, he has been the focus of attention in all of Kyoto.

At this point, if Jia Yin were to ask the family for any more favors, it would be like adding fuel to a fire. The harm far outweighs any benefit.

Luckily, Jia Yin had never let them down!

The little girl counted on her fingers earnestly, one by one, "Grandma is healthy, my brothers study well, Uncle One does business well, Uncle Two holds office well, Uncle Three runs a shop well, and Daddy fights well."

"It's better if my godfather secretly slipped me some gold ingots, or even better, Uncle Wen and Aunt Cui get married and give me a little brother to play with! Hmm..."

She hesitated for a long time, looking hopefully at the emperor, “Uncle Emperor, why don’t you tell Grandma and ask her to let Fu Niuer have some snacks Grandma locked the snack box up tight, Fu Niuer can’t steal any!”

"Hahaha!" The Emperor couldn't help but laugh again.

The little chubby girl counted for a long time, and everyone in the family said it over and over again, until finally she thought of herself, only asking for something random to snack on.

Know that all those around him, even those who claim loyalty to the country with their mouths, are in reality all seeking fame and fortune.

Today, the innocence of a child is so precious!

"Okay, Uncle Huang agrees to help you fight for the power to eat snacks. Also, Uncle Huang has a shop that specializes in selling snacks. In a few days, I'll let your godfather take over. It's a gift from Uncle Huang to you. From now on, you can eat whatever you want, how about it!"

"Okay, thank you, Uncle Huang!" Jia Yin was so happy she almost couldn't contain herself.

I just wanted to sing a few songs at home to please this top-tier big boss.

Unexpectedly, she actually had such a surprising gain!

What a teahouse! It's even royal!

When she wasn't lazy, she could actually come up with some specialty snacks and earn herself some pocket money!

As soon as she thought of silver, she got excited. She rushed to the emperor and gave him a big kiss on the cheek. Then she suddenly remembered the rules and quickly covered her mouth, "Oh no, grandma said Fu Niu'er is a young lady!"

The emperor understood and laughed even more heartily. He quickly comforted, "Uncle Emperor, I'll keep it a secret for you, your grandmother definitely won't know!"

After saying that, she also instructed everyone, “Remember to keep it a secret for Fu Niuer!”

How dare anyone disobey the imperial edict…

After some casual conversation, the group left the grass pavilion and strolled through the orchard.

Tao Hongying took Grandma He and quickly cleared the bowls and chopsticks, then went down the mountain.

If she stayed any longer, her heart would probably explode from fright.

Remembering how her daughter had just coaxed the Emperor with praises of their family and rewarded her shop, she couldn't help but feel her heart race.

Could this really be her biological daughter

You're too bold!

That's the emperor, actually acting like he's placating a grandmother at home, getting himself completely wrapped around his finger...

In the corner of the orchard, there were dozens of boxes of bees. This season was the busiest time for bees.

Of course, the honey made from fruit blossoms is the sweetest.

Perhaps Jia Yin felt that she had received too much from the Emperor and was hesitant to accept more. So, she asked Shui Ling to return home and fetch two small porcelain jars filled with honey, which she then presented to the Emperor.

The Emperor was truly delighted to receive it.

When the sun began to set, everyone made their way down the mountain. The emperor rode in a carriage, and Jia Yin, who had been sitting on Li Laosi's shoulders, waved goodbye. "Next time, I'll come play at the palace with your foster father! Emperor Uncle has lots of good things there!"

Jia Yin's eyes lit up, and she nodded eagerly.

The lord rubbed Jiayin's hair and smiled, "Your godfather has prepared a gift for you. Come back tomorrow to get it."

Jia Yin thought it was just like jewelry, not expecting much. Instead, she wanted to tell her stepfather that he should bring the Emperor over a few more times in the future!

If she robbed a few more shops, she would have money rolling in...

It's still a four-chapter day, flower and candy! Isn't it possible to get praise and encouragement Cross your legs and read the ballot, give good reviews (click five stars or click nice), and urge more updates! The praise and encouragement of my treasures are the motivation for HuaHua to code words!s so delicious!" The chubby boy hugged the biggest winter melon, moved to tears, "Jia Ren, does your family still need a son I want to be your brother. I want to lie in the field and eat winter melons...
