Harem Daily Life

Chapter 1010 I came here with a mission today.

Hua Yurong gave Hua Ruyan a good scolding, then went out happily and boarded the carriage that came to pick her up.

He Jin'an helped her sit down, and seeing the joy on her face, he raised an eyebrow: "So happy?"

It seems that leaving the manor to accompany him is something that makes her happy. He Jin'an is honored.

"It's nothing, I just won an argument and I'm full of energy all day. By the way, did you ask for the recipe for lotus flower pastries for me?" Hua Yuerong looked at He Jin'an expectantly.

He Jin'an smiled and took out a piece of paper from his pocket: "Why are you asking for this recipe out of the blue? You want to eat lotus flower pastries, I'll have Aunt Caiyun make some more and send them to you."

Hua Yurong carefully put the recipe away and smiled mysteriously: "I saw that you liked to eat it before, so I thought I would learn how to make it for you in the future. But don't have too high hopes for me."

Hua Yuerong studied cooking for several months, but she is still a kitchen disaster.

I have absolutely no talent when it comes to cooking.

He Jin'an pinched her cheek: "As long as the food is cooked, I'm not picky." He Jin'an really didn't care about the taste of food as much as Yu Nuo. He had been living on the streets since he was a child, and food was what sustained him. He was already very satisfied with having a bite to eat.

So even though his life changed dramatically after being raised by Tao Yan Yan, he became less picky about food and was easy to feed.

In another carriage, the three sisters chatted, with He Yanran being noticeably more reserved.

"Cousin, why aren't you eating the squid strips? My uncle brought these all the way from Penglai Island for me, they're so delicious!" He Yinuo recently got some seafood snacks and would share them with friends who liked them.

He Yanran smiled and said, "You eat. I've already had breakfast and I'm not hungry now."

He Min joked, "Yu Nuo, don't worry about your cousin. She's all flustered right now and has no appetite for food!"

He Yanran glared at her and said, "Don't say such things in front of your younger sister. She's still young!"

He Yinuo said calmly, "You don't need to treat me like a child. I'm twelve years old. Last night, my mother told me to ask around for Sister Yanran today, saying that there are some things that older girls can't ask, but younger girls can."

He Min and He Yanran exchanged a glance, both curious about what was being said.

He Yinuo raised an eyebrow smugly: "Of course I'm asking about gossip! When it comes to gossiping, who can beat me?"

He Min: "..."

He Yanran: "..."

He Yinuo came today with a mission; her sister Yanran's life-long happiness depended on her, and she had to live up to her mission.

The carriage that went to pick up Kang Pingzhi took him directly to the imperial estate outside the capital, where he met up with the carriage from the Prince of Jin's residence.

As soon as Kang Pingzhi saw He Yanran get off the carriage, he smiled and went to greet him.

"Greetings to the two princesses, and greetings to Princess Yanran."

Kang Pingzhi was a gentleman of upright character and impeccable manners. Both He Minhe and He Yinuo had a very good impression of him.

With He Jin'an's introduction, Hua Yurong also greeted Kang Pingzhi. The young people got along well and chatted and laughed all the way.

In recent years, Da Zhou has imported saplings from Xia Kingdom and planted them in various places. The results have been quite obvious. Some fruits that originally came from Xia Kingdom can also be cultivated in Da Zhou. In a few more years, more people will be able to enjoy the good fruits.

Kang Pingzhi hadn't expected that the cultivation techniques of the Great Zhou would be so good; some of the grafting ideas were things that even their Xia Kingdom couldn't come up with.

The entire hillside is planted with fruit trees, and the bright yellow oranges hanging from the branches look like golden lanterns, which is quite a delightful sight.

He Yinuo had already started picking and eating as she went. The freshly picked fruit was sweet and juicy.

"Little sister, eat less, or you'll get an upset stomach." Hua Yurong took out a handkerchief to wipe He Yinuo's hands so that her little dirty hands wouldn't get her clothes dirty.

He Jin'an put away the dagger he used to cut oranges and patted He Yinuo's head: "Listen to your sister-in-law, there will be fresh stewed chicken for lunch. Don't eat a belly full of oranges and then you won't be able to eat the chicken legs."

Hua Yue Rong blushed and glared at him: "We're not even married yet, why are you calling me sister-in-law?"

Not far away, He Yanran and Kang Pingzhi stood together, one picking fruit and the other putting it into a bamboo basket, working together quite well.

"Cough, I didn't expect that someone from the Great Zhou royal family would be doing such menial work." Kang Pingzhi looked at He Yanran and laughed.

He Yanran smiled and said, "Her Majesty the Empress attaches great importance to agriculture and land reclamation. Whenever she has free time, she brings us here to work. She says that only through our own labor can we understand how hard it is to produce food. Moreover, the children in the palace also yearn for the world outside the palace. When we come here, everyone is eager to do the work."

Looking at her rosy cheeks, Kang Pingzhi took out a handkerchief and handed it to her: "Take a rest and wipe your hands."

He Yanran took the orange with her ears turning red, and then Kang Pingzhi handed her a sliced ​​orange.

"Freshly picked, sweet."

He Yanran returned the handkerchief to him, took the orange, took a small bite, and sure enough, the sweet and sour juice spread in her mouth.

"Xia Kingdom has many other rare and exotic fruits. If you have the opportunity, would you like to visit Xia Kingdom? I will take you to taste all the delicacies of Xia Kingdom and show you the orchards that are everywhere in Xia Kingdom."

Kang Pingzhi stared intently at He Yanran, wanting an answer from her.

He Yanran hurriedly glanced at He Jin'an and the others not far away, biting her lip and saying, "I... I want to go out and see more, but... but I need the Empress Dowager, His Majesty, the Empress and my father's permission."

Kang Pingzhi's smile never faded: "Then what does the princess think of me? If... you would be willing to go for a walk with me?"

He Yanran's face was almost red with embarrassment: "I already told you, we need the elders' permission." He Yanran didn't dare to look at him anymore and hurriedly turned around, pretending to squat down to sort the oranges.

Seeing the little girl's shy appearance, Kang Pingzhi had no more reservations and squatted down as well, his four hands arranging oranges in the basket, pinching this one and that one.

"What are you doing?" He Yinuo tilted her head and looked at the two of them, asking a probing question.

"With four hands busy at work, you've almost cooked the orange."

Kang Pingzhi coughed lightly and stood up first. He Yanran also stood up, looking flustered.

"Um, Prince, there's a really big orange over there that I can't reach. Could you help me pick it?"

He Yanran's heart skipped a beat. Was this little girl planning to lure someone away for a private interrogation?

What exactly will they ask?

He Yanran gave Kang Pingzhi a wink, hoping he wouldn't fall for the little girl's tricks.

Kang Pingzhi was overjoyed when He Yanran gave him a flirtatious wink. He instantly understood what He Yanran meant: currying favor with his sister-in-law would definitely bring benefits!

It was quite remarkable that He Yinuo actually found the largest fruit in a large orchard. It was as big as two of the other oranges, and it was also very tall, hanging majestically on the branch.

However, this was no challenge for Kang Pingzhi, who was 1.85 meters tall. He simply tiptoed and easily picked the fruit. He Yinuo, of course, didn't hold back his praise, showering him with compliments.

The two, one big and one small, quickly became acquainted and started talking about everything.

By the time He Yinuo successfully directed Kang Pingzhi to return with a large basket of fruit, she had already asked all the questions she wanted to ask.
