Xie Mingxi was speechless for a while.

The customs, climate and environment of each place are different, and she is fully mentally prepared. I didn't expect the first test to come so soon!

There is a half plate of small red peppers in each plate! The spicy flavor goes straight to the nose.

You don't have to move chopsticks, you know the "taste".

Even in the fish soup, there was a layer of shiny red oil......

Xie Mingxi glanced at it more, and the housekeeper's mother suddenly made a mistake, and diligently took a bowl with her hands: "This is the chef's specialty dish in the house, it's not spicy, please try it." ”

Xie Mingxi tasted it with curiosity.

Lin opened a pair of bright eyes slightly, and asked with a low smile, "How does it taste?" ”

Xie Mingxi's face did not change, and he responded with a smile: "It is indeed different from the taste we usually eat." It's also fresh and interesting. ”

Lin Weiwei saw that Xie Mingxi didn't show any discomfort, so he immediately relieved himself, took a bowl of it, and took a sip...... The spicy sensation jumped from the tip of the tongue to the throat and spread into the stomach. Like a fire, it is spicy and numb.

Is this called spicy?

That's what it calls fresh and interesting?!

Lin Weiwei's pretty face suddenly turned red, a layer of water appeared in his eyes, and he was indignant: "Xie Mingxi! You've gone too far! How can you trap me like this! ”

If it weren't for Xie Mingxi pretending to be casual, how could she be so easily fooled!

Xie Mingxi had a sly smile in his eyes, but his face was full of innocence: "What I said was fresh and interesting, but I didn't say that it wasn't spicy." How do you know that you are so sincere, and you don't ask for clarity and eat in your mouth. ”

Everyone laughed.

Gu Shanchang, who was sitting next to him, tasted a bite of the dish, and felt that it was too spicy to eat, so he couldn't help but sigh with a smile: "I only knew that I was so delicate today." is so unaccustomed to eating in Shu. ”

Yang Fuzi and others were also quite uncomfortable, the only exception was Mrs. Dong. I took a chopstick and sent a red pepper to my mouth, and sighed with satisfaction: "Sure enough, the food in Shudi is the most fragrant." ”

Everyone: "......"

It's true that the spicy and fresh flavor is unaccustomed to it.

The housekeeper's mother, who took the initiative to persuade the food, trembled with fright, and knelt down with a plop: "It's all the slave's fault!" Slaves and maids should not make their own decisions and let the cook make the taste of Shudi. The princess spares her life! The princess spares her life! ”

Xie Mingxi smiled casually: "We are just joking, and we are not surprised." Shu eats, quite tasteful. We're just feeling sick for a while. Get up! ”

After thinking about it, he ordered to go down again: "Let Ye Qiuniang go to the kitchen now and cook a few light dishes." ”

……

A table full of delicacies can't be left untouched all the time.

Xie Mingxi swept his gaze, picked the plate with the least red pepper, and tasted it...... It's still spicy! However, when the spicy energy has passed, it is particularly appetizing and delicious.

And the crowd began to eat slowly.

When the dishes prepared by Ye Qiuniang were delivered, everyone's lips and tongues felt hot, and they couldn't taste it anymore. The lips were red, and the eyes were red—tears were spicy.

After the table dispersed, Lin said half-jokingly: "I didn't expect that the biggest test after arriving in Shu was to eat." ”

Everyone felt the same way and laughed together.

Xie Mingxi also felt that his lips and tongue were numb, and said with a smile: "It's inevitable that you're not used to it when you first arrive. Perhaps, after a while, we will have no spicy pleasure. ”

After a long journey, everyone was tired, and as soon as the feast dispersed, fatigue swept over unceremoniously. I was in no mood to gossip anymore, so I dispersed to rest.

"Mother," Ah Luo has been for more than nine months, and her speech is gradually becoming clearer, and she will call her father and mother: "Mother!" ”

While shouting, he pulled Xie Mingxi's shirt with his little hand.

It's hungry!

Xie Mingxi smiled, hugged Ah Luo, and unbuttoned his clothes.

Arlo is quite strong and has an exceptionally good appetite. One side was still not full after eating, and the other side was eaten, and the little belly was round, and he burped with satisfaction.

How can there be such a cute child in the world?

Xie Mingxi unknowingly contracted Sheng Hong's problem, and often likes to praise A Luo with the most beautiful, lovely, and clever. Lovingly hugged Ah Luo in his arms, kissed his forehead and cheek, and kissed his chubby little hands, he really fell in love with his heart.

Arlo giggled and shouted "Daddy" again.

"I don't know when your father will be back today." Xie Mingxi smiled and stretched out his hand and nodded Ah Luo's forehead: "Don't make a fuss, my mother will take you to sleep first, and I'll see your father tomorrow." ”

……

After a while, Sheng Hong returned.

He is still in filial piety and cannot drink alcohol. Officials also did not dare to drink. There was no wine at the banquet, and there was no singing and dancing. However, everyone intended to welcome him, and by the way, he touched the temperament and temper of His Royal Highness the King of Shu, and the atmosphere was particularly warm.

Sheng Hong knows in his heart, and he must be measured in dealing with it.

Approachability is for sure, but it can't be too unassuming. Otherwise, you will become an indiscriminate and good person that everyone wants to deceive.

"The princess and Arlo both slept?" Sheng Hong lowered his voice and asked Congyu.

Congyu, who was guarding the door, whispered: "Yes, I fell asleep half an hour ago." ”

Sheng Hong didn't want to wake up his wife and daughter, and he didn't want to go to the study, so he hesitated for a moment before softly pushing the door in.

There was a candlestick left in the room, and the soft light quietly sprinkled on the light pink gauze tent, reflecting the soft pink of the room.

Xie Mingxi leaned sideways inward, his right arm slightly bent, and protected A Luo in his arms.

Ah Luo slept on her stomach, pouting her fat little buttocks, her arms on top of her head, and her two little fat legs kneeling on the bed, like a little frog. The white chubby little face was turned outward, squeezed like a bun.

Both mother and daughter slept very soundly.

This must be the most coveted picture of happiness for all men in the world.

Sheng Hong's heart was filled with great happiness and joy, and he quietly walked to the bed, and before undressing, he just lay on Xie Mingxi's side.

He also lay inward, stretched his arms, and took Xie Mingxi and A Luo into his arms.

Xie Mingxi has always been shallow in sleep, and he is also extremely alert, and he will be awakened by the slightest movement. Tonight may be extraordinarily tired, or perhaps because it is extraordinarily steady, I have not been awakened.

In a daze, Xie Mingxi shrank into Sheng Hong's arms, still falling asleep.

The corners of Sheng Hong's mouth were raised high, and a smile spread from the corners of his mouth to the bottom of his eyes.

Xie Mingxi has always had a hard mouth, and there are never sweet words in her mouth, and it is even more difficult for her to admit that she has him in her heart. However, a person's subconscious cannot deceive people.

She will only let down all her defenses against those who trust her wholeheartedly.

Sheng Hong leaned over and kissed her lightly on the cheek. Contentedly hugged her and her daughter to sleep.
