Li Yuzhu picked up a piece with her bamboo chopsticks and said with a cheerful smile, "Delicious, if you all don’t eat, I’ll eat it all!"
The foodie Second Princess licked her lips, "Third sister, is it really that good?"
"Of course, when I was at the Prince Mansion, every time Nanny Sun returned from a trip outside the city, she would bring back this dish for me. It was really tasty," Li Yuzhu said indistinctly, chewing on the food.
Li Xing’an asked her in surprise, "How come I’ve never seen Nanny Sun bring this kind of dish back?"
Li Yuzhu glanced at him, "You don’t go to my place every day, how would you see it? Besides, with something this delicious, Nanny Sun would surely only give it to me. She’s my wet nurse, not yours."
Li Yuzhu again used Nanny Sun to deflect.
The Lu Ling Royal Mansion is large, with several children of Prince Luling each having their own place to live.
Their daily lives are also taken care of by their own servants.
It’s quite common for everyone to not know the details of each other’s lives.
"Alright, I don’t have a dedicated wet nurse. When there’s something good, Nanny Gui only gives it to the second young master!" Li Xing’an said indignantly, glaring at the Second Young Master.
He shares a wet nurse with the Second Young Master Li Xingsheng.
Because they are close in age, they often fought and argued for their wet nurse’s affection.
The Second Young Master Li Xingsheng glared back at him without hesitation.
As Li Yuzhu ate her third bite, the Second Princess couldn’t resist the temptation and took a bite as well.
Once the dish reached her mouth, her eyes widened instantly.
The Great Princess sneered, "Tastes bad, doesn’t it? Being hungry is no excuse for... eating grass..."
Before she finished speaking, the Second Princess swiftly grabbed another bite, "If you all don’t eat, I’ll eat it all myself. It’s really delicious."
"Don’t eat too much; you need to lose weight!" Li Xing’an blocked the bowl with his left hand while quickly grabbing the dish with his right hand.
The Second Young Master Li Xingsheng always liked to compete with the third Li Xing’an for attention, so when the third reached for the dish, he did too.
The two brothers ended up finishing half of the dish.
The Second Princess was so anxious her eyes turned red, "Don’t finish it all, leave some for me!"
"Stop fighting, save some for Father and Mother," Li Yuzhu reminded everyone.
The brothers then behaved more politely.
"Is it really this good?" Prince Luling also reached to grab the dish.
As he tasted it, it seemed, perhaps, to really be good.
He smiled slightly and picked up another piece for Princess Consort Luling, "You should try it too."
Princess Consort Luling, seeing the children fighting over it, already wanted to taste it.
She ate a piece and praised, "Not bad, quite flavorful."
The Princely Heir ate a bite and urged Xue Family to try it too.
Xue Family raised her eyebrows, "Turns out it’s medicinal herbs; it can’t be harmful to eat it." So she joined in eating.
Soon, her eyes brightened.
The Great Princess raised her chin, "I’ve had heat lately, so I’ll eat some medicinal dishes to relieve it."
With one chopstick, she took the last bit all for herself.
Xue Family glared at her angrily!
After dinner, Li Yuzhu urged Prince Luling to assign tasks to everyone.
Xue Family didn’t want to work, making an excuse to take care of the children.
Prince Luling agreed and also let Princess Consort Luling help with the children, so she didn’t have to go down the mountain.
The Great Princess didn’t want to go, "It’s just looking at places, why do we all need to go?"
Li Yuzhu smiled at her, "When we go down, we’ll first discuss choosing a place, and afterward, each select the size of our rooms. If you don’t go, don’t cry in the future when you’re assigned the smallest one."
The Great Princess was unwilling, "Who said I’m not going? I was just casually asking."
Li Yuzhu placed a basket into her arms, "Carry this, we’ll use it for gathering wild vegetables later."
