Xiaoying blushed as she pushed Jiang Yuyan away and whispered, “Don’t shout.”

“Oh, oh, I forgot. There are guests in the house!”

Li Shuang ‘er was so scared that she stuck out her tongue and craned her neck to look into the room. She was very nervous and afraid she would disturb the distinguished guests.

“Where are the tea leaves?”

Xiaoying asked her softly. Li Shuang ‘er then remembered to pass the tea leaves to Xiaoying.

“When Lord Xing heard that we would entertain the prince, he took out all his treasures.”

“Alright.”

Xiaoying took a whiff and found that the tea leaves were very fragrant. It was high-quality mountain tea, but the Li family didn’t have tea bowls and only had rough porcelain bowls. How could they serve guests like this? She asked Li Shuang ‘er.

“Did you bring the teacup?”

“Yes, Lord Xing was thoughtful and sent a bailiff to bring his good tea set over.” Li Shuang ‘er nodded. The bailiff was at the door and did not come in. She went out and shouted before she dared to enter the house.

“You don’t need me, right? I’ll go help Sister Su Qing cook.”

Li Shuang ‘er did not want to go in. She was afraid that her lack of etiquette would make the guests unhappy. She would instead cook with Su Qing. It had been long since she had cooked with Sister Su Qing. She missed the days when they were together. She could be with her every day, learning to shoot arrows learn to embroider and learn to pick herbs. Although those days were hard, they were happy. This chapter was originally shared via ReadScape.

Unfortunately, she couldn’t bring it back!

“Alright.”

Xiaoying nodded and began to concentrate on making tea. Although they lived a poor life in Peach Blossom Cove, her godfather had the habit of drinking tea and was very particular about it. He even deliberately taught Xiaoying how to wash tea and make tea.

Therefore, Xiaoying was very good at brewing tea. One had to calm down and do this kind of work at a moderate pace. Only then would the tea be sweet and delicious, with an endless aftertaste.

Xiaoying was very attentive. The tea set was cleaned with hot water, and the tea leaves were placed into the teapot and poured in hot water to wash the tea before pouring in hot water to make tea...

The water quality in Mo City was excellent, and the tea that was brewed was fragrant. Yelu Chun’s heart was already outside the house, so when he smelled the fragrant tea, he couldn’t help but say, “What fragrant tea!”

You can put the fish into the basket when I’m done.”

Zhong Yong said to Jiang Yuyan, then added, “Stay away from the ice hole. Don’t fall in.”

This included Zhong Yong’s words of concern. Jiang Yuyan’s heart was filled with sweetness as she pursed her lips and agreed, “Alright, I’ll be careful.”

Zhong Yong was still worried and asked her to follow behind him.

Jiang Yuyan looked at Zhong Yong’s tall back and felt a sense of happiness from being protected.

The man she liked was a man of few words but a warm-hearted man. He knew how to care for her!

Jiang Yuyan’s heart was racing. She didn’t see Zhong Yong stop and bumped into his back. Zhong Yong’s back was as hard as iron and wasn’t a light bump Jiang Yuyan covered her nose and squatted on the ground. Bright red blood flowed from the gaps in her hands, dripping onto the ice and turning into red roses.

“You... Are you bleeding?”

Zhong Yong was just about to scold Jiang Yuyan for not watching where she was walking when he saw that Jiang Yuyan was bleeding from her nose. He immediately panicked. As a man, he didn’t have the habit of wearing a silk handkerchief. In desperation, he lifted his cotton jacket and tore his white underwear.

Jiang Yuyan looked up and saw him lifting his cotton jacket. She was so scared that she quickly lowered her head. Her face instantly turned red, and her heart beat like a drum.

Zhong Yong didn’t know that his actions had made Jiang Yuyan shy. He tore off his shirt and handed it to her, saying anxiously, “Quickly use this to block it.” Jiang Yuyan reached out to grab the cloth and stuffed it into her nose. Zhong Yong’s scent instantly filled her nostrils, and the strong scent of hormones made Jiang Yuyan’s heart go out of control.

“Don’t move around. I’ll go dig the ice.”

Zhong Yong was anxious to dig a hole in the ice to catch the fish, but he was worried about Jiang Yuyan and told her not to move.

Jiang Yuyan saw his concern for her, and her heart was filled with sweetness. She was afraid he would see her face covered in blood, so she lowered her head and acknowledged him.

“Alright, don’t move. I’ll be back soon.”

After hearing Jiang Yuyan’s agreement, Zhong Yong walked towards the center of the river. Usually, the big fish were in the river, and the ones beside them were all small fish.

He came to the center of the river, raised his giant axe, and bombarded the ice He was born with great strength, and the axe was heavy enough to dig a hole in the ice.

Zhong Yong sprinkled some fish food into the pond, and soon, a group of hungry fish popped up to eat. Zhong Yong held his silver spear and waited with bated breath. As soon as the fish appeared, he stabbed down with his spear. He stabbed a big fish quickly and accurately. With a swing of his spear, the fish fell onto the ice and went limp.

“Jiang Yuyan, you...”

Zhong Yong turned around to look for Jiang Yuyan, but where was her shadow on the river?
