The third sister's face turned dark and blue, causing everyone at the dinner table to cover their mouths and snicker.

The third sister gritted her teeth and closed her eyes before trying hard to swallow the fried rice. She almost choked and wanted to go home.

"Okay, you guys, you all lied to me!"

"Hahaha! Mom started it first!"

Lin Jiangyue swallowed her meal and spread her hands.

"I think it's pretty good!"

The third sister was dissatisfied, "You are all real chicken thieves. The rice grains in this fried rice are as hard as pebbles, and these eggs, I have eaten the egg shells, and this salt. Our family is a little richer now. We have If you eat salt, why do you put it away as if you don’t need money?”

The fourth brother was stunned when he heard the third sister's complaints, and he scratched his head.

"Is it really that bad to eat?"

The family nodded in agreement.

The fourth brother seemed to have been struck by lightning, and took a few steps back in despair.

"This is the same way I made it for my husband. Why does he say it is unparalleled in the world?"

Lin Jiangyue drank some water to moisten her throat.

"My child, it doesn't matter if you don't do well. There is still room for improvement. Maybe my husband can't bear to make a filial and well-behaved child sad, so he keeps praising you. You must study hard when you go back to the academy."

Siyun was shocked, put the rice in his mouth, chewed it twice before speaking.

"Mom, I understand. I will never make my husband angry again. I want to learn how to cook with you and cook a real meal for my husband when I get back."

Lin Jiangyue smiled and agreed. Although it was salty, it couldn't be wasted.

Lin Jiangyue took the rice back to the kitchen, added lard and hot water, cooked the rice until soft, and made a pot of rice soup.

The family gathered around the table and ate lively.

Today happens to be the middle of the month, and the moon is big and round. After dinner, the children are washing the dishes.

Lin Jiangyue moved two stools and brought melons bought from Weishui County.

She and Li Yi were sitting in the yard, watching the moon and eating melons.

"Your Majesty, Dashi Village is too simple and very different from your palace."

Li Yi didn't think so, "I think the moonlight here is more beautiful."

Lin Jiangyue was eating melon with her legs crossed, and the late summer wind blew with it, bringing with it a hint of coolness.

Li Yi looked back and saw that the children were still cleaning up in the kitchen, then he cautiously came over and asked.

"Xiao Wu, where did you come from?"

"I bought it on the street. I was passing by the county town and saw this kid's smart look and bought it."

"It's that simple?"

"It's that simple!" Lin Jiangyue was very sure.

Li Yi pondered for a moment before speaking.

"This child looks very much like a friend of mine. Xiaowu may be his lost child. One of the reasons why I came to Weishui County before was to help him find his child."

Lin Jiangyue suddenly came over, her eyes sparkling under the moonlight as if she could see through people's hearts.

"The friend you are talking about, do you mean your brother, the current Holy Lord?"

The corners of Li Yi's mouth twitched slightly. He looked around to make sure no one heard him before lowering his voice.

"how do you know?"

Lin Jiangyue shook the watermelon juice dripping from her hand and accidentally splashed it on Li Yi's clothes.

"You forgot that I know how to recognize people. Xiao Wu looks like he has a purple spirit at first glance. He should have been born in an emperor's family." There is no place to look for after wearing iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.

Li Yi was a little excited when he got the exact news about Lin Jiangyue. The emperor secretly arranged for many people to search for the child, but he didn't expect that the child was by his side.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? We could have made them recognize each other as father and son before we were in the capital."

Lin Jiangyue, however, threw the watermelon rind in his hand into the corner where the garbage was piled.

"Now he is my child, Xiaowu, not a prince. Why should father and son recognize each other in the capital?"

"What do you mean by that?"

Lin Jiangyue told Li Yi about the cat spirit sealed in Xiao Wu's body, and also told him clearly that the cat spirit was artificially stuffed into Xiao Wu's mother's belly and then delivered.

"In other words, Xiao Wu is not a noble prince in the palace, he is just a tool doll at the mercy of others!"

Li Yi lowered his head and thought for a while, "I remember that Xiao Wu's mother seemed to have died in childbirth. Jiang Yue, are you saying that someone in the palace harmed Xiao Wu?"

Lin Jiangyue's determined eyes gave Li Yi the answer.

"I think it's better to tell the Emperor first. If you're worried about it being unsafe, you can tell the Queen Mother first. The Queen Mother has always been kind."

Lin Jiangyue was particularly helpless, "My lord, you usually have a clear mind when doing things, but why did you get confused when this happened? How can you be sure that the emperor and the queen mother don't know about this?"

Li Yi was silent.

Since childhood, in the eyes of the Queen Mother, he has been a tool, a tool to support his brother's rise to power.

Although they are both princes, the Queen Mother does not allow him to receive the same treatment as the emperor's brother, and the food and clothing costs are deliberately lower.

He rules over everything from matter to thought.

Think about it, what is the difference between myself and Xiao Wu?
Seeing Li Yi's silence, Lin Jiangyue stretched and stood up. After washing the dishes, the children ran to the yard to play.

The moon in the late summer in the countryside is very bright, shining like daylight, and everything can be seen clearly. The children are definitely not willing to sleep when they finally get together.

The five children played tag, and their hearty laughter spread far and wide.

"Look, the child is so happy here with me. Why do you want to go back to a place like the capital where people are complicated? I realized it at the last palace banquet. The total number of people at the banquet was eight thousand."

Li Yi agreed with this, and he didn't like the atmosphere of intrigue.

"It is not impossible for Xiao Wu to return to the capital to recognize his relatives, unless I am sure that he will not be in danger when he returns. In that case, I will personally tell him the truth about his life experience."

People in Dashi Village are either enjoying the cool air in the yard or going to bed early.

Aunt Ma's mother-in-law looked anxious and clutched her stomach as she hurried to the largest hut in the village.

She hurriedly opened the curtain and went in.

Just as she was about to take off her pants and squat down, a pair of strong hands suddenly held her buttocks.

A muffled male voice came from the latrine.

"Someone."

"what!!"

Aunt Ma's mother-in-law was so frightened that she picked up her pants and ran away.

He was running and shouting at the same time.

"Help! There's a pervert touching your butt in the latrine!"

Lin Jiangyue and Li Yi were also alarmed by her shouts, and felt strange when they saw her escaping home in a hurry.

A tall man rushed out of the hut with his nose held in his hands. After running 100 meters at a very fast speed, he stopped and kept stroking his hands under his nose.

"It stinks! It stinks! Why do the huts in this village stink! Doesn't anyone clean them?!"
