At this time, Wei Ruo had turned his head away and looked outside through the carriage window.
Wei Jin also stared at Wei Ruo's profile, her rapidly beating heart unable to calm down for a long time.
When they arrived outside the city, Wei Ruo helped Wei Jinyi get off the carriage.
In the past, Wei Ruo thought Wei Jin was too cunning in pretending to be sick, but now she thought about it, with her second brother's temperament, it was not easy to pretend to be sick in front of others all day long.
But it's worth it for him to pretend to be sick. It can save them a lot of unnecessary trouble and make it easier for them to do things.
In order to perform well in his tricks, Wei Ruo always had to support Wei Jinyi in front of others.
Wei Jin also cooperated and put his hand on Wei Ruo's hand.
Their palms were pressed together, and they could clearly feel each other's warmth.
Both of them felt that the feeling was a little subtle, but neither one said it out loud.
As soon as Wei Ruo helped Wei Jinyi out of the carriage, Xiumei ran over and told Wei Ruo: "Miss, the matter is done. Just now Li Zheng here said that we can build as much land as we want." "So fast?
" Wei Ruo was a little surprised.
Xiumei nodded heavily: "When the prince's team was still one mile away from the village entrance, someone came to report the news, and then Li Zheng came to ask our people. When he asked, he knew it was someone from Prince Rui's Mansion, and he immediately agreed. He said that he would go to the county to go through the formalities in person, and he also promised that it would be done today." "
It's really good that if I had known about it, I wouldn't have had to drag my second brother here," Wei Ruodao said.
Wei Ruo turned her head and glanced at Wei Jinyi who was supporting her.
Wei Jin also replied: "No, this trip is also beneficial to me." "Is it
also beneficial to you to help me build a chicken farm?"
"Yes." Because there are only their own confidants around, and there are no outsiders. Wei Jin also explained to Wei Ruo, "I should let others see that you and I are not doing our jobs properly."
Wei Ruo thought for a while and smiled: "What you said makes sense. Then you have to spend some time with me today. As a reward, Meimei and I will make you roast chicken with my secret sauce. Oh."
"Okay." A smile appeared on Wei Jinyi's face, his eyes soft, like water and mist.
Wei Ruo didn't know why but felt something strange in his heart again, so he quickly looked away.
There was a pond not far away, and Wei Ruo ordered someone to set up a barbecue rack by the pond to fulfill the roast chicken she promised Wei Jinyi.
The chicken was of course bought from a nearby farmer. One second it was jumping alive, the next second its neck was wiped to bleed, and then the hair was removed with hot water.
Not long after, it was placed on the barbecue rack, and Wei Ruo applied the secret sauce.
Xiumei went to the pond to catch fish.
This pond originally belonged to the village, but it will soon belong to Wei Ruo.
Wei Jin also lay on the wicker chair and looked at Wei Ruo in a leisurely manner.
It's not that he doesn't want to help, it's just that the place is empty and can be seen from a distance.
Even if outsiders can't get close and can't hear their voices, if they see the rumored sick Prince Rui from a distance actively helping his princess, I'm afraid it won't take half a day for those in the capital to I'm about to jump.
After a while, the aroma of roasted chicken filled the surroundings. Wei Ruo put a roasted chicken on a plate and handed it to Xiaobei: "Xiaobei, serve your master to eat chicken." "Yes." Xiaobei took the order
. , took the roast chicken and came to Wei Jinyi.
"Master, I will serve you to eat." Xiaobei was also a little embarrassed.
He has followed his master since he was a child, but he has never fed his master once.
The master never likes to be served while dining.
If he were to feed his master, I wonder if his master would be uncomfortable with it.
"Tear off the meat and put it aside." Sure enough, Wei Jinyi still didn't want anyone to feed him.
"Okay!" Xiaobei immediately obeyed. He was even a little panicked when he was asked to feed chickens to his master. Wei Ruo couldn't help but laugh and said: "Second brother, it's really not easy for you now. You have to be extremely careful when eating chicken outside."
Wei Jin didn't say anything, these little things didn't bother him.
Now, if he could get her to do what she wanted to do happily, it was worth it to him.
After finishing handling the chicken for Wei Jinyi, Xiaobei immediately ran to the pond to help Xiumei.
"Miss Xiumei, I'll help you catch fish."
"No, I can do it myself." Xiumei said.
"You two can catch it faster." Xiaobei volunteered and went straight into the water regardless of Xiumei's obstruction.
"Crack-"
The fish Xiumei was aiming at was frightened away.
Xiaobei looked embarrassed: "Yes... I'm sorry..."
Xiumei said helplessly: "You'd better go to the shore and wait for me. When I catch the fish, you can help me remove the scales, remove the gills and disembowel it."
" Okay then." Xiaobei didn't dare to object anymore, for fear of causing trouble for Xiumei again.
After a while, Xiumei caught two big fish and she and Xiaobei handled them one by one.
After cleaning it, wash it with wine, and then take it to Wei Ruo to bake.
Wei Ruo and the others were playing when they saw a group of people approaching where they were not far away.
You can tell by looking at his attire that he belongs to the royal family. Ordinary people cannot use such ceremonial guards.
Wei Ruo glanced at Wei Jinyi, and Wei Jinyi whispered: "I'm sorry Ruo'er, it seems I can't accompany you today. You and I must have attracted the attention of some people by going out openly today, and they came here to lecture us on purpose. Yes."
Wei Ruo brought Wei Jinyi to the suburbs this time to get the land as Prince Rui, so naturally he had to do it in an honest way.
Wei Jin also said the same thing, and Wei Ruo could probably guess that the person coming was either King Jing or King Yu.
But now that the matter of supervising the construction of Shenwu cannons and thunderbolts has been settled, even if they have ideas, there is nothing they can do.
Not long after, the team arrived at the wasteland where Wei Ruo and others rested temporarily.
Wei Ruo saw Chu Lan coming out of the riding group on horseback.
He was dressed in black and elegant clothes, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. He was handsome and had the unique heroic spirit of a military commander.
He turned over neatly and jumped off the horse.
He came to Wei Ruo and Wei Jinyi. At this moment, Wei Jinyi was still lying on the wicker chair with no intention of getting up, while Wei Ruo was still sitting on the bamboo chair nearby, focusing on roasting her chicken.
Chu Lan looked at the two of them condescendingly: "Ninth brother feels much better today and can actually go out for fun outside the city." "The
princess has taken good care of her." Wei Jinyi spoke slowly and unhurriedly.
Hearing this, Chu Lan's eyes fell on Wei Ruo.
Wei Ruo noticed the warmth of Chu Lan's gaze, but she did not raise her head and continued to roast her chicken.
With her second brother here, she is no longer so afraid of Chu Lan.
She just needs to do her thing, and her second brother will help her deal with it.
Chu Lan withdrew her gaze and said to Wei Jinyi, "I have a generous gift for my ninth brother."
Wei Jinyi just looked at him indifferently and did not speak.
Then I saw Chu Lan bringing someone up: "Does Ninth Brother recognize this person?"
