Faced with Lu's suspicion, Agui repeatedly assured that the Fourth Master had really eaten all the meatballs and drank half a bowl of soup.

"If my aunt doesn't believe it, I can give the Fourth Master another bowl tomorrow." Agui was almost swearing to the sky!

Lu stared at Agui's little face for a while, and believed it for three points.

With seven points left, she certainly needs to verify it again.

The next afternoon, Lu carefully cooked a pot of pork ribs and chicken feet soup. The pork ribs nourish and the chicken feet defeat the fire, and then seasoned with ginseng, wolfberry and red dates. In such a hot day, it was too hard for his son to practice martial arts. Although Lu couldn't see it, he was just one son. How could she not worry about it?

Xu Roujia and Lu Yilan returned from learning Nu Hong from Huaiyuan, and they were greeted by two bowls of soup.

"You can't just let you run errands. Come and try your aunt's skills." Lu said with a smile.

The two girls sat down separately.

Xu Roujia tasted it and the soup was light and slightly sweet. It had the mellow aroma of pork ribs, but it did not make people feel greasy.

Because the grandmother in the palace paid special attention to health preservation, Xu Roujia knew a little about the effects of various soups and soups. He should be warm and nourished in summer, and this soup is just right.

"It's delicious." Xu Roujia praised sincerely and asked curiously: "Did your aunt think of these soups by herself?"

Lu smiled and said, "I'm not that smart. I was so idle after moving to the palace, so I found a few recipes to practice."

Xu Roujia understood.

Lu Yilan immediately said: "Auntie will lend me those recipes, I want to learn cooking too."

Lu readily agreed.

After drinking the soup, the two of them sat with Lu for a while and were about to go to Taoranju.

This time, Lu prepared two food boxes. When her son grew up, it was the first time she delivered food to her son. Lu was so excited that he forgot his nephew Lu Ding.

However, when Xu Roujia and the others arrived at Taoranju, they were told by Agui that Zhou Qi had not come back yet.

The two girls were a little stunned.

Before Lu Ding came, Agui followed Zhou Qi. He got used to it and explained: "Master Wu taught him too much and forgot the time, but it won't be too late. If the princess and cousin are interested, they can go to the garden first."

Xu Roujia felt that it was hot and didn't want to go shopping.

Lu Yilan sat with her in the hall.

Fortunately, it's summer, so I won't be afraid of the soup being cold after waiting for a while.

About a quarter of an hour later, two figures appeared at the door. Zhou Qi, who was walking in front of him, looked cold, and behind him, Lu Ding...

Seeing the bruised bruises on Lu Ding's eyes, Xu Roujia frowned.

Lu Yilan jumped up and ran out with pain: "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Lu Ding was ashamed and explained casually: "It's okay, I've had some lottery when I was having a conversation with someone, just a little bit of injury, it doesn't matter."

After saying that, he looked at Zhou Qi in front of him.

Today, when practicing martial arts, his partner was Zhang Shun, who was around the Third Master. In terms of height, Zhang Shun was not as good as Lu Ding. However, Zhang Shun practiced martial arts at the age of eight and his kung fu was higher than Lu Ding, so Lu Ding could only be beaten. If he hadn't had a brute force, he might have been beaten even worse.

In fact, boys in the town often fight with each other at any disagreement, and Lu Ding has fought since childhood. Winning and losing are common in military affairs. Winning and losing is a happy battle. Losing a few times is nothing. But he is now a person around his cousin. He was beaten by the third master's companion and lost his cousin's face.

Lu Ding was afraid that his cousin would be unhappy.

Zhou Qi seemed to have not seen his two cousins, and coldly ordered Agui to prepare water and went to the bedroom.

Lu Ding smiled bitterly, he must have been angry.

"Brother, who have you discussed with?" Xu Roujia walked over and asked.

Lu Ding refused to say that his sisters would not blame the third master and Zhang Shun for him. Just like when his cousin beat the second master last time, the second master's two sisters took revenge on A Tao.

"I'm sending soup to the Fourth Master again." Lu Ding quickly changed the subject, then touched his head and said, "Then you talk to the Fourth Master, I'll go back to my room to change my clothes."

Lu Yilan grabbed him and said, "Wait, my aunt also served soup for my brother."

Lu Ding felt warm in his heart.

Lu Yilan turned around and went to the hall to get it.

Lu Ding smiled at Xu Roujia awkwardly: "Don't worry, my brother will practice martial arts diligently, and he will only fight to beat others in the future."

Xu Roujia thought of the situation where Lu Ding led people to round her up and Xie Jin in his previous life. At that time, Lu Ding was riding on a horse with a long sword flying in his hand. Xie Jin's last few confidant guards were like straw men in front of him, and could not stop him at all.

With lingering fear, Xu Roujia joked and concealed: "Brother, just don't hit me."

Lu Ding never expected her to say that, and couldn't help laughing out loud, but laughed too hard, which involved the wound, causing him to grin.

Xu Roujia asked Agui who came out again: "Does there any injury medicine here for my cousin?"

Agui nodded: "Some, some, princess, wait."

Before going to get the medicine, Agui asked the master who was waiting for the shower in the inner room: "Second Master, the princess ordered me to prepare the medicine for Master Chou."

Zhou Qi nodded faintly.

Only then did Agui go to get the medicine.

Although Lu Yilan wanted to get along with Zhou Qi more, she cared about her brother more at this time and took the initiative to accompany Lu Ding to apply medicine. The brother and sister took the opportunity to talk.

Xu Roujia sat alone in the hall waiting for Zhou Qi.

Zhou Qi came out after taking a shower, wearing a black summer robe, which made his complexion look like jade and his eyebrows became colder.

Facing Zhou Qi's unwelcome gaze, Xu Roujia left the seat and whispered: "Sister has helped my brother with medicine."

Zhou Qi glanced at the soup on the table and asked coldly: "Why don't you go? He is also your brother."

Xu Roujia heard it, Zhou Qi was mocking her for not feeling sorry for her righteous brother.

But Xu Roujia had been concerned. If she hadn't asked Agui to get the medicine, Lu Ding's brother and sister wouldn't have thought of this.

So she was not guilty.

Pointing to the food box, Xu Roujia explained obediently: "My aunt said this is her new soup. I don't know if it suits my cousin's taste. Let's watch me drink it. If my cousin thinks something is wrong, you can tell us. My sister helps my brother with medicine, and I will stay and wait for my cousin to taste it."

Agui was outside, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Xu Roujia didn't offer him.

Zhou Qi felt that this fucking cousin was so sensible that she wanted to get close to him, but she took her mother as a guise.

"Cousin, try it, otherwise it will be cold." Xu Roujia took out the soup bowl and placed it in front of him.

Thinking that Zhou Qi would become the emperor in the future, it would not be too aggrieved that she would serve him once or twice.

Zhou Qi is indeed thirsty.

He slowly drank half a bowl of soup.

My mother's skills have always been good. If Xu Roujia hadn't been present, Zhou Qi would have drunk more.

"What do you think of my cousin?" Xu Roujia asked with a smile.

Zhou Qi nodded and then ordered Agui: "When you go to return the food box, tell your aunt that if you send food again next time, arrange for the maid to come, the second and third masters of the princess and the third masters live here. The princess and cousin are old and need to avoid suspicion."

Agui bowed his head and should be.

Xu Roujia's face turned red.

She decided to ignore Zhou Qi again before she calmed down! With Zhou Qi's attitude, she also felt right in front of her grandmother!

In order to avoid being unable to help glaring at Zhou Qi, Xu Roujia walked to the yard angrily and stood under the shade of the tree waiting for Lu Yilan to come.

Zhou Qi glanced at the petite figure under the tree and went straight to the study.

Lu Yilan came back soon. I don’t know what the brother and sister said, but her eyes were a little red.

"Sister is crying?"

Walking out of Taoranju side by side, Xu Roujia looked at Lu Yilan who was too silent and asked with concern.

Lu Yilan felt very uncomfortable: "If I had known that my brother was so difficult, I shouldn't have come to the capital at the beginning."

She enjoyed her happiness, but it was too hard for her brother to be beaten like that.

Xu Roujia comforted her: "Don't worry, when my brother has mastered martial arts, no one dares to bully him."

Lu Yilan was about to nod when she suddenly saw four figures turning around at the intersection in front. Among the two people walking in front, Zhou Yu, the third master of the royal family. She had seen him, and the tall and tall young master next to him was no one knows who it was.

She didn't recognize it, but Xu Roujia recognized it. It was her eldest cousin, Zhou Feng, the prince who was born to Princess Chun, and she would also be the King Huai who will compete with Zhou Qi for the throne in the future.

However, before my uncle's will was made public, my cousin, who was both civil and military, was gentle and humble, was almost everyone's candidate for the crown prince, including my grandmother and her.

After being reborn, Xu Roujia thought about some questions, Zhou Qi's and Zhou Yu's.

Just as she gradually discovered that Zhou Qi was not as shameless as the legendary Lu, she gradually realized that her cousin Zhou Yu was not as gentle and humble as he showed. Because, if her cousin was really humble, he would not disobey his uncle's imperial edict and rebel as a prince.

Because of this, when I see Zhou Yu again, Xu Roujia felt a little more fear in her heart.

The two waves of people are getting closer and closer.

Xu Roujia brought his maid Yu Ping, who whispered to introduce the prince Zhou Zhi to the second daughter.

"Atao has met his eldest cousin and third cousin."

Lu Yilan was nervously at a loss, and Xu Roujia bowed openly.

They have been in the mansion for so long, but they have only met Zhou Yu for the first time.
