Chapter 57: How Vegetables Grow
The lunch was quite hearty.
Because of the arrival of Xia Yiyuan and Xia Xingran, the palace maid in charge of the emperor's meal specially asked the imperial dining room to add a few more dishes.
A few people sat down, and Mu Huayin opened the food box with a smile, "Grandpa Huang, I specially made your favorite vegetable salad." ”
The clean celadon plate is filled with sliced colorful leaves and fruits, revealing a unique freshness of vegetables, and the sweet sauce makes it look and smell very delicious.
Xia Yiyuan leaned over and sniffed, "Wow, this thing is so fragrant, is it your own dish?" ”
"Nonsense, or did you create it?" Mu Huayin took a pair of chopsticks and sent them to the mouth of the emperor, "Come, grandpa emperor, open your mouth." ”
The Emperor opened his mouth and ate it in one gulp, with a satisfied smile on his face.
Xia Yiyuan couldn't help asking, "Grandpa Huang, is it delicious?" ”
The Emperor nodded again and again while chewing, "It's delicious......
Looking at the Emperor Taishang, who was eating very happily, Xia Xingran's face collapsed.
He had a feeling of being left out in the cold.
In the Ning Xiang Palace, everyone revolves around him.
If there is anything delicious, give it to him first.
But when I came to Huaqing Garden, everyone revolved around the emperor, and the delicious food was also given to the emperor first.
This made him feel an imbalance in his heart that his favor had been robbed.
Obviously, he is a child, and everyone should take care of him.
So he pushed away the rice that the nurse fed to his mouth, "I don't eat it." ”
The nurse was anxious, "Isn't this meal all the food that His Royal Highness likes to eat?" ”
"I just don't eat it."
"And what do you want to eat?"
"I'm going to have a salad."
The nurse was stunned.
Xia Xingran looked at the imperial lady who was eating happily, and his heart became even more unbalanced, "I'm going to eat vegetable salad." ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to take the plate in front of the Emperor.
At this moment, a voice sounded in his ears.
"Ah Xing, do you know how vegetables grow?"
He turned his head and saw Mu Huayin looking at him seriously, "It's all poured out of feces and urine." ”
Xia Xingran's small body stiffened, and he silently withdrew his fingers that had already touched the plate.
Xia Yiyuan's fingers were also stiff, and he silently withdrew the chopsticks that were originally going to pick up the vegetables.
The greens on the table are no longer cared for.
Only the Emperor Taishang still held his bowl and ate with relish.
Mu Huayin sandwiched a piece of chicken and put it in Xia Xingran's bowl, "You are still growing your body, you have to eat more meat to grow taller." ”
Xia Xingran decided never to eat green vegetables again.
But he also doesn't like to eat meat.
He looked at the greens on the table, and then at the meat in the bowl.
In the end, it was decided that he would not eat the meal.
The nurse hurriedly took the bowl and walked around him, "Your Royal Highness, you can take a bite, just take a bite......"
If Concubine Yi knew that the little prince hadn't eaten lunch, how could she deal with it.
But no matter how she persuaded her, Xia Xingran just wouldn't eat it.
He sat with his hands on his chest, his face full of pride and disdain.
Let's chirp, chirp, chirp -
The sound of the Emperor feasting was heard in his ears.
He glanced at the Emperor Taishang who was eating with bulging cheeks out of the corner of his eye, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva unconsciously.
But he still has to hold on to his last stubbornness.
Hmph, he didn't want to eat it.
So until the end of lunch, the palace maid withdrew all the food, and Xia Xingran still didn't eat a mouthful of food.
