Chapter 1120 (One Thousand One Hundred and Twenty) Preserved Fruit
"Yes." Tie Hongyan said, "I'll get it." After saying that, she was about to turn around.

"Wait a moment." Tie Wandao said.

Tie Hongyan stopped and waited for her to speak.

Tie Wandao drank the water in his cup in one gulp and continued, "Take this cup and put some preserved fruits in it for me. There are eight kinds in total. Put a piece of each kind in this cup and add warm water. I want to taste what the water made by mixing these preserved fruits tastes like, and I want to taste the water made by my child himself."

"Okay, I'll go right away." Tie Hongyan said.

After saying that, she turned and walked towards the cabinet filled with preserved fruits, thinking as she walked: Is Dad going to send me away temporarily? Will he take out the thing he just took out and put it on his finger, and then take it off?
Tie Hongyan walked to the cabinet, took out a large box from it, and looked at him out of the corner of his eye.

The preserved fruits were packed in that big box, which contained eight small boxes, each of which contained small bags made of rare materials, and the mouths of the bags were tied with strings. If you want to take out the preserved fruits, tie up each small bag, cover the eight small boxes, and finally cover the big box, the whole process is not easy to complete quickly without some effort.

Tie Hongyan naturally wouldn't use any kung fu at this moment. She just wanted to see what Tie Wandao was going to do.

When she just opened the first small box, she saw out of the corner of her eye that Tie Wandao took something out of his pocket again and put it on his hand, and then he looked at the sobering jar.

This time Tie Wandao took out the same ring, and he put it on his left thumb as before, and pressed the tip of his right thumb against the shallow pit. He looked at the sobering jar, silently chanted something, and then the tip of his right thumb left the shallow pit on the left thumb ring.

He thought: Why is there no response yet?

Tie Wandao looked in the direction of Tie Hongyan, thinking that she was not looking at him. He wanted to try again, but felt that it was unnecessary. He planned to go to Wu Xunsheng's room later to try his sobering tank. He took the big ring from his left hand with his right hand and put it in his pocket.

Tie Hongyan once again saw with his peripheral vision that he took off the thing on his hand and put it into his pocket.

She saw with her peripheral vision the whole process of Tie Wandao taking the thing out of his pocket and putting it back into his pocket. While watching, she thought: There is a small bag in each of these eight boxes. I need to untie the string on each bag to take out the preserved fruits inside. Under normal circumstances, I have to tie the string on the small bag and seal it immediately after taking them out. Even if I don’t seal it immediately, it won’t be particularly fast to take out one of each kind of preserved fruit. Did my father ask me to do this just to prolong the time to get me out of the way?

After Tie Wandao put the big ring into his pocket, he immediately said to Tie Hongyan, "The water doesn't need to be too hot, just about right. It doesn't matter if the water used to soak the preserved fruits becomes stronger or not, because I'm going to eat the preserved fruits in the end anyway."

"I understand, Dad." Tie Hongyan said.

She soaked the preserved fruits in water and brought them to Tie Wandao.

Tie Wandao took it and started drinking.

She noticed that he was obviously not concentrating on tasting the wine when he drank it, as if he was thinking about something else, but she said, "Not bad! It tastes good!"
