Chapter 4136

After a moment's hesitation, Liu Mingzhi smiled faintly and raised his right hand to wave casually at Lena behind him.

"No need, you can go and do your own thing."

"Yes, ma'am. I shall take my leave now."

Lena respectfully bowed to Young Master Liu and his wife Ling Wei'er, then turned around and walked lightly out of the room.

After Lena walked lightly out of the bedroom, Liu Mingzhi looked at the beautiful woman in the dressing mirror with a smile as she combed her hair.

"Weier."

"Oh, my husband, what do you say?"

"Wei'er, were you really not just trying to appease your husband with those words just now?"

Upon hearing this, Ling Wei'er replied without hesitation in a sweet voice, "Oh, of course not. Everything I just said was the truth from the bottom of my heart."

Seeing Ling Wei'er's decisive and straightforward answer, Liu Mingzhi raised his hand with a strange expression and gently rubbed his brows a couple of times.

"Good Wei'er, are you telling the truth?"

Hearing her husband's questioning tone, which sounded somewhat doubtful, Ling Wei'er smiled and lightly tapped the beast a few times.

"Yes, yes, yes, of course it's true."

Liu Mingzhi smacked his lips lightly twice and tilted his head slightly to look at the beauty standing behind him.

"Wei'er, although your tone sounded very serious and sincere, I still feel that what you just said was clearly just to appease me!"

Upon hearing her husband's words, Ling Wei'er immediately shook her head lightly, feigning annoyance.

"My husband, I'll say it again: you're overthinking things."

As soon as Ling Wei'er finished speaking, without waiting for Young Master Liu's reply, she pointed with the wooden comb in her fair hand to the jewelry box on the dressing table.

"My lord, the third box contains your hair ornament and hair ribbon. Open the box and take out the hair ornament, and I will put it on you."

"OK, all right."

Liu Mingzhi responded loudly to Ling Weier's words and immediately reached out and opened the third rectangular jewelry box on the dressing table.

In the blink of an eye, several exquisitely designed hair ornaments inlaid with various gemstones, as well as several different kinds of hair rings, delicately designed turbans, and several hair ribbons of different colors and lengths were presented to Young Master Liu and Ling Weier.

Liu Mingzhi casually glanced at the hair ornaments, hair rings, turbans, and hair ties in the jewelry box, then took out a light blue hair tie and handed it to Ling Weier behind him.

"Wei'er, I won't wear a hair crown today. I'll just tie it up with a hair tie."
Ling Wei'er smiled and nodded twice, then immediately raised her hand to accept the light blue hair tie that her husband handed her.

Immediately, she first leaned slightly over her slender waist and placed the wooden comb in her fair hands on the dressing table, then skillfully began to tie up Young Master Liu's hair.

After about six or seven breaths, Ling Wei'er smiled and gently patted her fair and delicate hands a few times.

"Husband, it's alright now, you can get up and wash up."

Liu Mingzhi chuckled and nodded, slowly standing up from the round stool beneath him. He then turned and walked straight toward the changing rack not far away.

Seeing this, Ling Wei'er turned around with a smile and walked lightly towards the kettle that Lena had placed on the ground a few steps away.

She walked gracefully to the kettle, bent slightly at the waist, picked up the kettle from the ground, and headed straight for Young Master Liu, who was already standing by the changing rack waiting for her.

After Ling Wei'er walked to Liu Dashao's side with a smile, she immediately began to adjust the warm water for washing up.

Before long, Young Master Liu and his wife Ling Wei'er began to wash up.

After about half a cup of tea's time, Ling Wei'er, who had finished washing up, walked back to the dressing table placed by the window.

After casually draping the towel he was using to wipe the water off his face and hands over the changing rack in front of him, Liu Mingzhi picked up the basin of water from the changing rack and turned to walk straight outside the screen.

"Wei'er, you do your makeup first. I'll go out and get some water to wash my face."

Ling Wei'er took out an eyebrow pencil from the jewelry box and answered Liu Shao's question with a sweet smile.

"Okay, I got it."

As soon as Liu Mingzhi stepped out of the room carrying the basin of water, he immediately saw his beloved daughter, Liu Luoyue, dressed in martial arts attire and carrying a beautifully sheathed longsword as she walked into the courtyard from outside the gate.

He spotted the little cutie returning from outside the courtyard at a glance, and the little cutie also spotted him immediately.

The little cutie saw Young Master Liu, who had just come out of her Aunt Wei'er's room, and quickly hurried towards her father.

"Good morning, Father!"

Liu Mingzhi glanced down at the long sword in the little cutie's fair hand, then looked at the fine sweat on her soft forehead, and nodded gently with a faint smile.

"Hmm, good morning. You went to the training ground to practice martial arts again?"

Upon hearing this, the little cutie smiled and nodded a few times to Young Master Liu, then raised the long sword in her hand and gently waved it at him a few times.

Hehehe, hehe~ hehehe.

"Practice hard in the coldest days of winter and the hottest days of summer!"

Hearing the little cutie's cheerful reply, Liu Mingzhi first nodded to her with a smile, then used his arm slightly to splash the wash water from the basin onto the ground in the courtyard.

"Moon, it's getting late. Breakfast should be here soon. You should go back and change your clothes!"

Upon hearing this, the little cutie immediately nodded and replied in a sweet voice, "Yes, Yue'er understands, Daddy. I'll go back and change my clothes now."

"Well, let's go."

"Hehehe, good daddy, see you later."

After waving to Young Master Liu with a grin, the little cutie turned and headed towards the neighboring courtyard, carrying the long sword in her slender, jade-like hand.

"It's getting cooler. Sit down and cool off before changing your clothes, otherwise you'll easily catch a cold."

"Yes, Yue'er understands."

The little cutie responded to Young Master Liu's words in a sweet voice without turning her head, while raising her slender arm and waving gently at him, continuing to walk forward without stopping.

Liu Mingzhi chuckled and shook his head, then subconsciously glanced at the room where his sister-in-law, Gu Molanya, had already opened the door.

Immediately, he pursed his lips twice and calmly carried the basin of water towards Ling Wei'er's room.

"Wei'er, your husband is back. Have you finished your makeup?"

"Almost done, almost done."

After casually placing the basin of water on the changing rack, Liu Mingzhi glanced at Ling Weier, who was sitting on a round stool applying makeup, and then walked away from the screen with a smile.

"Wei'er, you continue with your makeup. I need to go to the outhouse first. We'll meet again in the main hall."

"Yes, yes, I understand." Liu Mingzhi nodded slightly and walked without stopping to the corner behind the door.

He bent down, picked up the chamber pot from the corner, and continued walking towards the door.

Half a day later, Young Master Liu, Qi Yun, the Third Princess, Qinglian, Ren Qingrui, Gu Molanya and all the other sisters, as well as Little Cutie, all arrived in the main hall.

To be more precise, Young Master Liu was probably the last one to arrive in the main hall.

As soon as Liu Mingzhi stepped into the main hall, Qi Yun, the Third Princess, and Little Cutie, who were sitting in chairs chatting and laughing, all stood up from their chairs and bowed to him.

"My lord, my sisters and I greet you."

"Big Fruit, your sister greets you."

"Brother-in-law, your younger sister greets you."

"Good father, Yue'er greets you."

Liu Mingzhi glanced at Gu Molanya intentionally or unintentionally, then smiled faintly and walked to the main seat. After settling down, he gently pressed his hands down in front of everyone at the table.

"No need for formalities, no need for any formalities at all."

"Sit down, sit down, everyone."

"Oh, thank you, my husband."

"Thank you so much, Da Guoguo, little sister."

"Thank you, brother-in-law."

"Hehehe, thank you so much, dear daddy."

Qi Yun, the Third Princess, Ren Qingrui, Gu Molanya, and the little cutie and her mother thanked them one after another before sitting back down in the chairs behind them.

Liu Mingzhi let out a slow, soft sigh, and glanced with a smile at the small steamer basket, pan-fried buns, and various kinds of porridge on the dining table.

"Yun'er, what's in the steamer? Is it xiaolongbao (soup dumplings)?"

Upon hearing her husband's question, Qi Yun smiled and replied sweetly, "Husband, it's not xiaolongbao, it's steamed dumplings."

"Oh? Steamed dumplings?"

"Yes, that's right, they're steamed dumplings!"

Liu Mingzhi smiled and nodded, then gently rolled up his sleeves. He first reached out and opened the lid of the small steamer, then picked up a basket of steamed dumplings and placed it on the table in front of him.

Then, he picked up his chopsticks, took a steaming dumpling, and put it in his mouth, taking a small bite.

"Wow, so fresh, fragrant, and delicious!"

After taking a small bite of the steamed dumpling, Young Master Liu happily waved to Qi Yun, the Third Princess, and Little Cutie and her daughter.

"Yun'er, Yue'er, you should eat it while it's hot too."

These steamed dumplings have to be eaten while they're hot; they don't taste good when they're cold.

Qi Yun, the Third Princess, and their sisters, along with the little cutie, smiled and nodded before picking up a steamer basket of dumplings and placing it on the table in front of them.

After gently blowing on the steamed dumpling between his chopsticks, Liu Mingzhi put it directly into his mouth and ate it.

"Husband, what kind of porridge would you like to drink?"

"Yun'er, have a bowl of millet porridge."

"Hey, okay."

Qi Yun got up, ladled a bowl of millet porridge from the soup bowl, placed it on the table in front of Young Master Liu, and then sat down in her chair with a smile to continue eating her breakfast.

Liu Mingzhi ate five or six steamed dumplings slowly and carefully, then picked up two pan-fried buns with his chopsticks and put them on the plate on the table.

"Yun'er."

Upon hearing this, Qi Yun silently swallowed the steamed dumpling in her mouth, smiled gently, and replied softly, "Yes, my husband, please tell me."

"Yun'er, we haven't had fried dough sticks for five or six days. Let's ask the kitchen to fry some tomorrow morning."

"Yes, yes, I understand. After we have breakfast, I will go to the kitchen myself to give instructions."

After Liu Mingzhi devoured two pan-fried buns, he seemed to remember something and his gaze suddenly fell upon Qi Yun's mature and charming face.

"By the way, Yun'er, after you go to the kitchen, ask the chefs if any of them are from Chu Ting."

Ever since our whole family left the capital to accompany Rongrong to visit her relatives in the Kingdom of Gumo, and then traveled west to settle in the capital of the Kingdom of Dashi, I have never been able to eat rice noodle rolls from Chuting again.

If there's a cook in the kitchen who is a court official, have them make some rice noodle rolls and send them over when they're preparing breakfast tomorrow morning.

Conversely, if there isn't one, then forget it and don't put them in a difficult position.

Upon hearing her husband's request to eat Chu Ting rice noodle rolls, Qi Yun couldn't help but furrow her delicate brows slightly.

"My lord, ever since our family moved into the palace, I've spent a lot of time running around the kitchen."

Forgive my bluntness, but none of the cooks in the kitchen speak with a Chu Ting accent.

As Qi Yun spoke softly and sweetly, she glanced at Qi Ya, Xue Bizhu, and Huang Lingyi with a smile.

"So, my husband, it's probably hopeless for you to expect to eat Chu Ting rice noodle rolls from the cooks in the kitchen."

"Let's make sure my older sister, Bizhu, and Lingyi all get up early tomorrow morning and go through the hardship."

Before Young Master Liu could even respond to Qi Yun's words, the three sisters, Qi Ya, Xue Bizhu, and Huang Lingyi, turned to him and nodded with gentle smiles.

"My lord, I have been to the kitchen more than once."

My sister is right. None of the cooks spoke with the Chu Ting accent, so they probably don't know how to make rice noodle rolls.

"In that case, it would be best if the three of us sisters—Bizhu, Wei'er, and I—got up a little earlier and made some rice noodle rolls."

As soon as Qi Ya finished speaking in a soft and melodious voice, Xue Bizhu immediately nodded her head and echoed her in a sweet voice.

"Yes! Yes!"

"My lord, let my sisters and I do the cooking."

After Sister Yun mentioned to the chefs that you wanted to eat Chu Ting rice noodle rolls, it wouldn't be a problem if one of them happened to know how to make this dish.

However, if no one knows how to make this food, who knows how anxious and uneasy they would feel!
Since that's the case, why don't my sisters and I get up earlier to make you rice noodle rolls!
This way, everyone can save themselves some trouble.

Upon hearing her good friend Xue Bizhu's words, Huang Lingyi readily nodded a few times to Young Master Liu.

"My lord, I agree!"
