Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

After the eunuch finished distributing the steamed buns, he left with the baskets on his shoulders.

He went to return to Concubine Xian.

Concubine Xian laughed lightly after listening to his narration.

"You are doing well, so you have to make Princess Zhao hungry."

Only by keeping her hungry can she know how to obey.

...

Hua Manman hurried back to find Hua Qingqing and asked her to pick up the steamed buns.

Concubine Xian only said that she would not be allowed to eat. He didn't say not to let Hua Qingqing eat.

After Hua Qingqing gets the steamed buns, share them with her, she can still eat the steamed buns!

Hua Manman praised her wit.

Hua Qingqing went to the main hall as she said, while she stayed in the room to take care of the seventh prince.

After Hua Manman's eagerly looking forward to it, Hua Qingqing finally came back.

But she was empty-handed and got nothing.

Hua Manman stood up vigorously: "Didn't you get the steamed buns?"

Hua Qingqing: "I received a steamed bun, but the eunuch forbade me to take the steamed bun away, and forced me to finish eating the steamed bun on the spot. If I didn't eat it, he would take the steamed bun back."

Huamanman is angry.

Knock Nima ah! This trick is too cheap!

Hua Manman asked, "Have you eaten the steamed buns?"

Hua Qingqing shook her head: "I didn't eat it, the steamed bun was taken away by that eunuch."

Hua Manman couldn't understand: "Are you stupid? Why don't you eat what you have?"

Hua Qingqing: "You are still hungry, how can I eat?"

Hua Manman: "..."

Terrible! She was actually moved.

But only a little bit!

Really only a little bit!

Hua Manman said awkwardly: "Don't think that if you do this, I will be grateful to you. I will only think that you are stupid. If you don't eat anything, forget it if you starve to death."

Hua Qingqing smiled and said optimistically.

"I just saw a lot of weeds growing in the courtyard. I'll look for them, and maybe I can find edible wild vegetables."

Hua Manman asked her soul.

"Do you know what wild vegetables look like?"

Hua Qingqing: "..."

She really doesn't know what wild vegetables look like.

As the eldest lady of Zhong'anbo Mansion, even though she lost her mother when she was young, she was protected by her grandmother, and her stepmother never mistreated her in life.

She has always been rich in clothing and food, let alone eating wild vegetables, she has never even seen the appearance of wild vegetables.

Hua Manman stood up and muttered.

"I know you are unreliable, you stay here with me, I will go outside to find wild vegetables."

Hua Qingqing was surprised: "Do you know what wild vegetables look like?"

The original owner of Hua Manman's body naturally doesn't know what wild vegetables look like, but Hua Manman from modern society knows!

In the past, she lived with her grandparents in the countryside, and her grandfather often took her up to the mountains to play. Whether it was picking mushrooms, digging bamboo shoots, or picking wild vegetables and fruits, she followed her grandfather.

Hua Manman pretended not to hear Hua Qingqing's question, and went out to find something to eat.

It's summer now, and the weeds in the courtyard are growing very lush, especially after yesterday's heavy rain, the weeds are almost as tall as someone.

Hua Manman pushed aside the weeds and began to carefully look for edible wild vegetables.

Probably God didn't want the heroine Hua Qingqing to starve to death, so Hua Manman found a big clump of green shepherd's purse without any trouble.

She rolled up her sleeves and quickly picked shepherd's purse.

Been busy for a while.

Hua Manman walks back with a lot of shepherd's purse.

On the way, they met Concubine Shu and the sixth prince Li Yi.

Li Yi saw that Hua Manman was so hungry that he was about to eat weeds, so he couldn't bear it, so he gave her one of his steamed buns.

"Eat this instead of weeds."

When Hua Manman saw the steamed bun, his eyes lit up immediately.

She asked in surprise, "Are you sure you want to eat it for me?"

Li Yi was a little embarrassed by her sparkling eyes.

He turned away uncomfortably and whispered.

"You cooked glutinous rice dumplings for me before. Although the glutinous rice dumplings you cooked are not as delicious as those cooked by my concubine, I still thank you very much. This steamed bun is for you in return."

Hua Manman decided to ignore the disgust in his words for the sake of steamed buns.

She took the steamed bun, but didn't eat it directly, but stuffed it into her bosom.

"Thank you."

Concubine Shu saw this scene in her eyes and did not stop it.

She knew that the relationship between Princess Zhao and King Zhao was very good, and they showed kindness to Princess Zhao, which was tantamount to making friends with King Zhao.

Hua Manman took the shepherd's purse to the small kitchen.

There is a small kitchen in Chaoyang Palace, but because no one has used it for a long time, there is a thick layer of dust on the stove, and the pot is already rusted.

Hua Manman found bowls and chopsticks, copper pots and pottery urns from the kitchen cabinet.

She washed these things and shepherd's purse with well water, then filled the pottery jar with water, and put it on the stove to boil.

Hua Manman poured hot water into the copper pot, which filled two large pots.

She gave one of the pots of hot water to Concubine Shu, and returned to the house with the other pot of hot water and shepherd's purse.

Hua Qingqing was very pleasantly surprised to see her return home with a full load.

"You really found something to eat."

Hua Manman put the copper pot on the table and smiled proudly.

"It's just a small thing to me."

The two served steamed buns with shepherd's purse.

A steamed bun is divided into two halves, half for each person.

Because there is no pot and seasoning, shepherd's purse can only be eaten raw.

Fortunately, these shepherd's purses are fresh and tender enough, and they are not unpalatable even without seasoning.

After eating steamed buns and shepherd's purse, and drinking a bowl of hot water, Hua Manman was finally not hungry anymore.

Hua Qingqing held the Seventh Prince in one hand, while carefully drinking water for him.

Probably because he hadn't drank water for a long time, the Seventh Prince was already thirsty, and he didn't need anyone to coax him right now, he immediately opened his mouth and gulped water, unexpectedly being more obedient than usual.

After feeding the water, Hua Qingqing had to breastfeed.

Hua Manman put away the empty bowl on the table, and planned to look outside again to see if he could find other food that could be eaten. By the way, he observed the environment here, looking for opportunities to escape.

She wandered around the front yard first, and then went to the back yard.

There is a well in the backyard.

Hua Manman had a profound influence on the well.

At first, she was thrown into this well by Yin Meiren and almost drowned, but fortunately a kind maid lady rescued her.

There is a greenhouse next to it.

But due to years of disrepair, most of the flower house has collapsed, and the flowers and plants inside have been covered by weeds.

Going forward, you can see two apricot trees with heavy clusters of apricots hanging from the trunks.

When Hua Manman saw those yellow apricots, his eyes lit up immediately.

Found something to eat!

She looked around, and after confirming that there was no one around, she performed lightness kung fu and jumped up, and the whole person flew to the apricot tree lightly like a swallow.

She picked an apricot at random and peeled off the skin to reveal the orange flesh.

Bite down, the mouth is soft, very sweet!

Hua Manman couldn't help picking a few more apricots, and looked around while eating.

The apricot tree she was in was very tall, and she could see the situation outside Chaoyang Palace by taking advantage of its height.
