Wu Lingzhu took a piece and peeled it off and tasted it. The taste was sweet and the color was bright.

"That's right, Master, where did this grapefruit come from?" She remembered that there was no such fruit at the last palace banquet.

Yinzhen glanced at it and said, "The pomeloes from Fujian are bright in color and have clear flesh. They are all selected from the best. If you like them, I will have someone buy some from Fujian. The pomeloes are not easy to rot and can be kept for a long time.

Very long.”

Wu Lingzhu said with a smile: "I'm here, Mr. Lao, and it's delicious."

"Yeah." Yinzhen picked up the grapefruit meat that was peeled into pieces on the plate, peeled off the outer skin, and handed it to Wu Lingzhu, "Eat some in moderation, as eating too much will make your teeth sour."

"Well, it's really delicious." Wu Lingzhu took it with a smile, used the pulp slowly, and smiled happily.

Yinzhen peeled off three pieces of honey pomelo for her one after another, and stopped when he saw that she had almost eaten. With the pomelo as an appetizer, Wu Lingzhu ate a lot of meals, all of which were tender, and all the layers on the surface were peeled off.

Go to the side and pick the middle and bottom ones to use.

When the secretly made hooves were served, the heat had already dissipated, and now it looked so cold that people stopped using their chopsticks.

However, Wu Lingzhu stretched out his chopsticks to push open the skin on his face. There was a slight heat coming out from inside. It was very weak but still there. Wu Lingzhu removed the skin with a smile and happily ate the meat and tendons inside.

, did not let go of the bones, and even chewed them twice. Seeing this, Yinzhen did not stop him, and even took the initiative to help her peel the skin and let her eat the muscles and bones inside.

The plate of hooves in front of their table soon had only skin and no meat left. The bones of the hooves were placed on the small plate at Wu Lingzhu's hand.

Seeing this, the Queen Mother shook her head and chuckled, and said to Emperor Kangxi: "Emperor! Look how happy the fourth family is eating, and the Ai family has an appetite just looking at it."

"Really?" Emperor Kangxi put down his chopsticks and looked at Yinzhen's table. Sure enough, there was only skin left on the hooves, and he couldn't help but chuckled, "The fourth family has such a good appetite, they ate such big hooves.

As it goes on, it seems that it is really well taken care of."

"Isn't that right?" The Queen Mother nodded at the ham on the table and said to Aunt Wen who was waiting beside her: "Send it to the fourth family. The ham is too greasy and the Ai family can't eat it. Let the fourth family eat it."

Let’s help the Ai family eat.”

Aunt Wen suppressed a smile and responded, carrying the poultry to Yinzhen's table, "Four Beilean, four Fujin, this is something the Queen Mother will reward you for."

Wu Lingzhu took one look at it, took it hurriedly, and said with a smile: "Please give me a message from Aunt Wen to thank Huangma for the reward. My granddaughter-in-law is worried that she hasn't had enough."

"Definitely." When Nanny Wen turned around, she couldn't help laughing any longer. When she returned to the Queen Mother, she conveyed her original words, "Sifujin thanked you and said she didn't have enough."

The Queen Mother turned around and saw Wu Lingzhu's smiling eyebrows and crooked eyes, and the smile on her face was a bit sincere.

"This child eats so much greasy food without restraint. I wonder if the fourth child has treated her badly in the house."

Emperor Kangxi did not agree and would not say it clearly. He only said: "There is a lot of meat in Lao Si's house every day, and Lao Si's family is still in the beef business."

The Queen Mother then remembered that Wu Lingzhu also ran a profitable business while he was ill. In the past two years, it had become popular among people who traveled far away. Beef jerky and beef cubes were made very well. No wonder those businessmen and travelers who traveled far away

Everyone loves to buy.

The key is that it is a unique business, others cannot produce such good taste.

"That's true. It's just the Ai family's wild thoughts." The Queen Mother chuckled, and saw that Yinzhen was still removing the skin from Wu Lingzhu's hooves with a sullen face. She shook her head silently and looked away, "The young man will not be able to move after eating too much."

The thing is, the Ai family has grown old and suffered terrible consequences."

Emperor Kangxi smiled and said good things: "What the Queen Mother said is that I am not young anymore."

"You are in your prime, so you are very good. The Ai family will just eat something light." After the Queen Mother joked, she began to eat vegetarian dishes, and rarely touched the meat; mainly because most of the meat at the palace banquet was cold, so after eating it

Afraid of stomach upset.

Emperor Kangxi also ate a lot of vegetarian dishes with him. The taste was okay, but it was delicious without meat; most Manchu men like meat rather than vegetarian food.

After eating and drinking, Wu Lingzhu wiped his mouth and served tea and snacks. He also ate a lot of fruits and couldn't bear it until he couldn't bear it anymore. On the other hand, Yinzhen didn't eat anything and had been taking care of Wu both covertly and covertly.

Lingzhu.

Wu Lingzhu raised his head and looked across, only to see that the hooves in front of Dafu Jin and San Fujin were not moving, which was a pity.

"Master, can we ask Emperor Ama to give us the uneaten ham?"

"You haven't eaten enough?" Yinzhen was surprised.

Wu Lingzhu's cheeks were slightly hot, "No, you can take it back as a midnight snack! Or, you can take it back and feed it to the people below. It's a great honor to be rewarded by the palace!"

"No need, everything they eat in the house is hot." Yinzhen didn't want to embarrass this person.

Wu Lingzhu understood it and felt that he couldn't ask for it, otherwise, Yinzhen's character would collapse.

"Okay then. The ham made by the royal chef tastes really good. I wonder if the chefs in our house can make it taste like this."

"Let them do it and try it." Yinzhen said it smoothly. He paused for a moment and suddenly regretted it. He usually dotes on little Fujin and basically obeys everything, but now he just said it smoothly.

Wu Lingzhu smiled like a flower, with a blush on her delicate face, as if a delicate rose had bloomed, "Go back and let them try."

Yinzhen nodded silently in response.

After the palace banquet was over, Wu Lingzhu and Yinzhen walked up to the Queen Mother and said, "Huang Ma?"

"Why are you here? You haven't left the palace yet. The palace gate will be closed soon." The Queen Mother looked tired. She sat here for more than an hour. She is getting older and it is impossible not to be tired.

Wu Lingzhu said with a smile: "Don't be afraid. My husband and I will take Huang Ma Mo back to Cining Palace first. We can just walk faster later. There won't be any delay."

"Wu Lingzhu is interested." The Queen Mother was very pleased that her love for this girl was not in vain. "There are palace servants here in the Ai family, as well as Aunt Wen, Aunt Ding, Aunt Liu, so don't worry; you should hurry up and get out of the palace, and come back when you have time.

Look at the Ai family, the Ai family are in the palace all day long, and even if they want to have a confidant talk, they can't find anyone."

"Okay, grandson-in-law will bring something interesting to the emperor next time she comes to the palace."

"Go ahead, go ahead."

The Queen Mother walked away holding the palace attendant's hand. Wu Lingzhu watched her leave, and then went to take Yinzhen's hand. Lanterns were hung everywhere, and the lights were still bright. There were no outsiders at the moment, so the confidants who were waiting for her were holding hands.

She can't resist the temptation of holding hands or anything like that.

Yinzhen was still a little stiff at first, but after walking for a while, he saw Wu Lingzhu smiling all the way, and his vigilance relaxed. He pulled her to avoid crowded roads, and specifically chose small paths to walk, and finally left the palace.

At this time, he took the initiative to pull her catkins and helped her get into the carriage.
