Ling Muran said this out of necessity, because he knew his identity, but others did not, so the fourth prince would think that Ling Muran was supporting someone else.

Xue Rouer said suspiciously: "Don't you want the fourth prince to be the prince?"

Ling Muran couldn't get off the tiger at this moment, so he could only bite the bullet and said: "Of course I want to, but he doesn't need you as a woman to support him."

Xue Rouer curled her lips and said, "I didn't do anything."

The fourth prince also breathed a sigh of relief. If Ling Muran supported other princes, then his competitiveness would be too great.

When Ling Muran saw that this matter had been fooled, he stopped talking and looked jealous.

The fourth prince's originally raised wariness also dropped, and he said with a smile: "Ling Muran, you'd better see the road in front of you clearly, otherwise you will not be able to turn back if you make a wrong move."

Ling Muran glanced at him sideways and said, "Don't worry, my eyes are bright!"

The fourth prince thought that Ling Muran was just jealous of him and supported him in important matters, so he was in a good mood.

Xue Rou'er glanced at the two of them and said, "Ling Muran, where is the token?"

Ling Muran said: "I won't give you any money. I'll give it to you when I get back."

Xue Rouer was not afraid of him cheating, so she said: "Okay, then I'll wait."

Feng Hai came back from nowhere and saw the mess all over the place. He was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

Feng Xi said proudly: "Sister Rou'er has made a lot of money. After the busy farming season is over, we can build a school and recruit a teacher for the children in the village to study."

Feng Hai said: "This is a good thing, but it's just the money?"

Xue Rou'er smiled and said: "It's okay, it's the good man Ling Muran and the fourth prince who contributed the money. You must build it for me. Don't be lenient with the money."

A smile flashed in Feng Hai's eyes and he said: "No problem, I just happened to have hunted a deer. How do you plan to eat it?"

Xue Rouer said: "Is there hunting in this season?"

Feng Hai said: "I was bitten by a wild wolf, so I took the second half back and left the rest with the wild wolf."

Xue Rou'er nodded and said: "Let's have hot pot, I haven't had it for a long time."

Feng Hai clicked her lips and said, "Okay, the deer is in the dining room."

Xue Rou'er ignored the two men with big eyes and small eyes and walked towards the dining room. It was a stag with a pair of antlers beside it and half of its body on the chopping board. It was big enough for these people to eat.

Yunu said: "Miss, do you want some side dishes?"

Xue Rou'er said: "Yu Chan, you are good at knife skills. Cut the meat into slices and make soup for me from the bones. Yu Nu, you soak some of those dried vegetables. Feng Xi, let's go for a walk in the mountains. Some wild vegetables should have come out by now."

."

Feng Hai said: "Go to Dongshan. There is plenty of sunshine there, and the wild vegetables are fatter than those in the fields."

Feng Xi nodded and said: "Well, we will be back during lunch. If those two people fight again, they must pay them a thousand times the amount of money."

Feng Hai smiled and said: "I know, such a fat cow will be useless if you don't kill it."

Xue Rou'er took Feng Xi out, and they quickly ran to Dongshan.

There are several continuous peaks in Dongshan. Xue Rou'er couldn't help but ask: "Is this the boundary of Xizhuang?"

Feng Xi said: "Yes, but you have also seen how desolate those mountains are and are of no use."

Xue Rou'er couldn't help but murmur in her heart. It seemed very deserted, but she didn't know if there were any mineral deposits. If there were any iron ore, the copper mine would make a fortune. However, this thought passed quickly, and she didn't take it to heart.

There are many wild vegetables on the sunny slopes. Xue Rouer even found fungus on the rotten wooden stumps. The rain in the past few days had moistened them, making them shiny and thick. There were still last year's ones on the stumps, but they were all rotten.

Feng Xi asked: "What are you doing with this?"

Xue Rouer said: "You haven't eaten it?"

Feng Xi shook his head: "How can you eat this stuff if it's so disgusting?"

Xue Rouer's forehead was dripping with sweat, and she said, "Okay, don't fight with me for a while."

The two picked a lot of wild vegetables, and just as they were about to leave, they heard an explosion in the mountains.

Xue Rouer's expression changed and she asked: "Is there someone mining on the mountain?"

Feng Xi smiled and said no, there is a valley on this mountain, and explosions like this are often heard, and then fires will break out, but don't worry, it won't burn here."

Xue Rou'er felt strange and asked: "Is there something rotten there?"

Feng Xi said: "Then I don't know. I heard others say that there is very smelly black water there, and it is the black water that is burning. Because there are some stones on the mountain that reflect light, the heat generated ignites the black water."

Xue Rou'er was surprised. The black water couldn't be oil. Then it wasn't very far from the capital. Isn't it close to a gunpowder depot? It's better not to make this matter public, otherwise the disaster it would cause would be beyond its control.

.

"Let's go, it's almost done." Feng Xi said.

Xue Rou'er nodded and returned to Xizhuang with Feng Xi.

Feng Hai and others have already prepared the hot pot, and even the dipping sauces are waiting for them.

Feng Xi washed the wild vegetables and brought them to the table, and everyone gathered around the table to eat.

The fourth prince and Ling Muran seemed to be competing. The two of them were frantically filling Xue Rou'er with meat. Xue Rou'er felt that something was going wrong and immediately said: "Stop, how can I eat it if you do this?"

Ling Muran said: "You are my wife, and as a husband, I naturally have to take care of you more."

The fourth prince said: "She is my cousin. How can I, as my cousin, ignore her?"

Xue Rouer's appetite was completely wiped out by these two people, and she said: "Okay, I admit that I can't refute your reasons, but I have hands, can you let me eat it myself?"

The fourth prince smiled and said: "Okay, you can eat as much as you want. If it's not enough, I'll ask the guards to hunt some more game."

Ling Muran sneered and said: "Rou'er, if it's not enough, I'll call you personally."

Xue Rou'er glanced at Ling Muran, didn't he hate himself to the core? Did he take some medicine or give up treatment today, and he was so attentive to her?

The fourth prince said: "Then why don't you go quickly?"

Ling Muran stood up and was about to go out, but after walking a few steps, he came back and sat down, saying: "Rou'er didn't say enough, so I can't leave. Otherwise, what should I do if Rou'er becomes thirsty in a while? You are the fourth prince, so naturally you are.

I don’t bother to do such a thing.”

The fourth prince said disapprovingly: "That's a bad thing to say. This is not in the palace, so there is no need for so many etiquette. Rou'er is my cousin. As an elder brother, you should naturally take more care of me. It's not wrong to serve tea and water."

Ling Muran smiled but didn't smile: "Really? Why don't you pour her tea when you see she eats so much? What should you do if she chokes?"
