Chapter 554： A useless thing!

Chapter 554: A worthless thing!

Jiayin hugged the boiled corn and ate it happily. When she saw the yellow steamed potatoes right in front of her eyes, some of the parts near the edge of the pot were half-burnt, she hurriedly finished the last bite of the corn and then went to get the potatoes.

As a result, she chewed the last bite a little too hard, and her mouth hurt so much that she screamed and jumped up.

Everyone was startled and wanted to ask what happened to her.

Jiayin opened his mouth and spit out a few corn kernels, with a small deciduous tooth mixed in the middle.

It turns out that one of her lower front teeth was laid off!

“Oh, Fu Niu’er lost her teeth!”

“Haha, the little girl has grown up and started to change her teeth.”

“The little gap-toothed child is so cute.”

This tooth had not moved much before, but now it fell out suddenly, and there was some blood on the broken part.

Everyone was afraid of the good news and tried to tease her.

Jiayin gritted her teeth and was really dumbfounded.

When she lost her front teeth in her previous life, she didn’t know why, but she didn’t grow new teeth for some reason. However, she was often laughed at by children of the same age.

As a human being again, we have to experience such embarrassing moments as losing teeth!

Li Laosi felt sorry for his daughter, but he couldn't bear to let her feel sad. He hugged her directly, stepped out of the door with a small tooth as big as a soybean, and then held his daughter up and asked her to throw the tooth onto the roof.

At the end, he smiled and coaxed his daughter, "Throw your lower teeth on the roof, Fu Niu'er's new teeth will grow out soon!"

“Well, thank you, dad!” Fu Niuer smiled habitually with her teeth bared, but the cold wind coming in through the holes in her teeth reminded her of the fact that she had become toothless, so she quickly reached out to cover her mouth.

Everyone laughed unkindly.

Jiayin was helpless at being laughed at, so she simply let go, ran to grab half of the steamed potatoes, smeared them with chili and stewed them, and ate them.

The soft and glutinous steamed potatoes are slightly salty and spicy, which is unexpectedly suitable for her weak teeth.

Unfortunately, I only took two bites before my wife snatched it away.

Tao Hongying stuffed her daughter's half-eaten potatoes into her mouth and ate them in two or three bites. Then she gave her daughter a new one without chili peppers and said: "Chili peppers are hot and hot. You just lost a tooth, so you can't eat them. Be careful not to grow new teeth in the future." !”

This threat pierced Jiayin's heart. No matter how greedy she was, she could only be obedient.

Everyone was chatting and eating and drinking, and asked Li Laosi about the situation in Jiangbei. Li Laosi picked out some things he could talk about and briefly talked about them.

Everyone couldn't help but feel a little sad when they thought of their hometown.

In fact, Li Laosi didn't say anything, they also knew that no matter how good the city was, it would not be left intact if it fell into the hands of the barbarians.

There are also those people who did not move to the south of the Yangtze River in time. It is better to be killed directly by the barbarians, at least they will be happy.

But those who were imprisoned as slaves and now have no choice but to live or die are the worst offenders...

After eating, everyone went back to rest with heavy hearts.

Tao Hongying wanted to help clean up the kitchen, but Mrs. Li pushed her back to the room early.

The couple have been separated for so long, it’s time for them to get intimate, and maybe they can give Jiayin a younger brother...

Not to mention how happy the Li family was because of Li Laosi's return. They only said that the Marquis entered the new capital and rushed directly to the palace. He had been away for a few months, and Jiangbei was the territory of barbarians. Communication with Jiangnan was inconvenient, so he really accumulated a lot of things.

The emperor was also looking forward to him. When he saw him about to kneel when he entered the door, he helped him up and said, "Cousin, you are back. How was this expedition? Are you injured?"

“Thanks to the Emperor, I have some minor injuries but no major injuries.” The Marquis smiled and responded.

The emperor was worried and immediately called the imperial doctor.

The imperial doctor originally thought there was something wrong with the emperor's dragon body and was frightened to death. However, he was relieved when he found out that he was checking the body of Marquis Xinting.

After working for a long time, the imperial doctor knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, there are no major injuries on the Marquis's body. The few minor wounds were treated well, so that the root cause of the disease will not be too serious.

"But Lord Marquis is away on war. He cannot eat three meals on time and sleeps less. Therefore, he suffers from severe loss of energy and blood. It is best to keep him healthy for a while, otherwise...otherwise it will affect his lifespan."

The emperor became cold-faced at that time, and immediately ordered the imperial physician, "Prescribe the tonic, and prescribe it immediately! The necessary medicinal materials will be obtained from the inner treasury, and we must restore the body of the Marquis."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The imperial doctor quickly withdrew. The chief **** was worried about the young **** doing his errands, so he went to write the prescription and get the medicinal materials.

In the imperial study room, the emperor took the Marquis to sit opposite him, poured tea for the Marquis with his own hands, and said: "Cousin, thank you for your hard work. Without you, there would be no peace in Jiangnan today."

"Your Majesty, don't say that. The soldiers are all loyal and brave. I am just leading them." The Marquis said modestly, and then said: "In this expedition, as many as three thousand barbarians were killed. Before the spring of next year, the barbarians will not be able to fight again." There is no time left to invade, so we can rest assured about harvesting and spending the winter.”

“Okay, okay!” The emperor was extremely happy. “There will be a good harvest of corn and potatoes soon. The harvest will be enough to make seeds. Next year, planting in Jiangnan will be fully promoted.

“When the national treasury is abundant and enough food has been stored, we can launch a massive counterattack and regain Jiangbei.”

The Marquis nodded and was about to speak when a commotion came from outside the hall door.

The emperor frowned and asked loudly: "What happened?"

Immediately, a young **** came in from outside and reported with a troubled expression, "Back to the emperor, it was the third princess who made the tonic soup with her own hands and wanted to give it to the emperor. The servant said that you and the Marquis would discuss important matters again, but the princess did not believe it..."

Before he could finish speaking, the third princess had already walked in with a tray. When she saw the Marquis sitting drinking tea, her face suddenly turned pale and she dropped the tray in her hand.

During this period, she was moved out of Kunning Palace and lived alone. Without the protection of her mother and the strict upbringing of her nanny, it was really miserable.

Today, I finally took advantage of the opportunity of learning how to cook and made a soup. I thought about serving it to my father, so that I could ask him to let her move back to Kunning Palace.

How could I have imagined that I would meet Marquis Xinting!

Even the rough eunuchs and eunuchs who sweep the floors in the palace know that Marquis Xinting is a murderer. Hearing that he was fighting in Jiangbei, he was so hungry that he roasted the barbarians like pheasants and ate them...

She had just bullied Princess Kangle. Did Marquis Xinting come to settle a score with her? !

“Ah! Help!” The third princess became more and more frightened as she thought about it. She screamed and ran away.

Left behind was a frightened little eunuch, the marquis who frowned in confusion, and...the emperor who had a dark face.

The little **** finally stopped being stupid and quickly picked up the tray and broken dishes, then retreated.

The Marquis coughed twice and said to the emperor, "Am I too murderous and scared the princess?"

The emperor knew very well what this unsatisfactory daughter was afraid of, but he couldn't say it, so he said: "Don't pay attention to her, she is useless!"

Just at this time, the chief **** rushed back. When he saw the mess in the room, he really scolded the little eunuchs half to death, but he still smiled and stepped forward to report, "Your Majesty, the prescription has been written and the medicinal materials are ready. Mr. I ordered everyone to be sent to the Hou Mansion."

The emperor nodded and ordered: "Tell the imperial kitchen to cook more delicious dishes that the Marquis likes to eat."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The chief **** responded, and called the young eunuchs to tidy up the house quickly and then closed the door...
