8. Chapter 8
Miao'er was very happy when she heard Zhao Xinyi say she liked the flowers she planted.
She planted the flowers, because she liked them, and also wanted the little demons and spiritual creatures nearby to appreciate them.
Zhao Xinyi said she wanted to pick some and take them away, and she immediately agreed generously: "Of course it's OK. Fairy Zhao, do you need me to pick it for you?"
Zhao Xinyi shook her head: "No, thank you Miss Miaoer."
"The fairy just calls me Miao'er."
Zhao Xinyi looked at Ling'er and Miao'er, and nodded with a smile: "Okay, you don't have to call us fairy, just call us the name."
Ling'er and Miao'er agreed happily.
Ling Yao helped Zhao Xinyi pick flowers. The two of them didn't pick many of them, they only picked a dozen of them, and they just could hold them in their hands. If there were more, they would need to hold them in their hands.
After picking the flowers, Zhao Xinyi took out a hand-painted ceramic vase from the space. The vase was not big and could be placed on the table.
She poured some water into the vase, inserted the flowers in her hands into the vase one by one, and then put them into the space.
Miao'er followed her along with her. She lived here for a long time than Ling'er, so she naturally knew more.
When I learned that Zhao Xinyi was looking for something to eat next, Miaoer took them into the woods on the other side of Wanhua Lake.
There are more trees there, more spiritual fruits that can be eaten. There are many kinds of flowers and plants on the ground, and there are many that can be eaten.
As soon as Zhao Xinyi entered, she kept squatting down and picking it.
Some of the things she couldn't know were so she asked Lingyao if it was poisonous. When she knew it wasn't poisonous, she picked it down and took it out to try what it tasted.
Miao'er saw Zhao Xinyi put away the grass that only herbivores had eaten one by one. She squatted down curiously, reached out to help pull one, and handed it to Zhao Xinyi and asked, "Xinyi, can this really be eaten? I have only seen some herbivores eat this grass, and even the little demons have not eaten it. There are many wild fruits and spirit fruits that can be eaten here, otherwise I will help you pick some fruits and eat it."
Zhao Xinyi took the wild vegetables she handed over and explained to her: "It's something that can be eaten. This is called shepherd's purse. It is a wild vegetable. There are many ways to eat it, steam it, stir-fry it, cold it, and dumplings, all of which are delicious."
As he said that, Zhao Xinyi couldn't help but become greedy.
Zhao Xinyi was an orphan in the 21st century and grew up eating a hundred families of food. So she could cook at a young age and knew a lot of wild vegetables. After all, this thing is as long as it is spring, it is full of food all over the mountains. This is the food that ensures that she is not hungry.
Ling Yao also knew this thing, but the wild vegetables she knew were only medicinal functions, but it was only medicinal functions that could only treat mortal diseases.
As for what she eats, she knows all the delicious food made of various precious ingredients. There are only things that farmers can eat in the mortal world. In the past, she would not even see it.
Ling Yao looked at Zhao Xinyi with a heartache.
In fact, she knew that the hundred years her highness was missing from her soul. Even if she couldn't guess where Zhao Xinyi's half soul went, she knew that her highness had suffered a lot from her.
Ling Yao felt very guilty, because she had not taken good care of Your Highness. How could His Highness eat this kind of thing in the past? He only ate Qiong Yao jade liquid, and did not touch anything with a little less fairy spirit.
Zhao Xinyi did not notice Ling Yao's emotions.
She has experienced a hard life. Although her arrogance is still there, she no longer cares about those external things. True strength is psychological strength. No matter what you do, only if you are mentally fearless, then you are a powerful person, a truly proud person.
Miao'er couldn't help but feel moved when she heard the foods described by Zhao Xinyi.
Since she was born in the world, she has always been eating fairy spirits and drinking rain and dew. She has only heard the older generation say that this would be eaten in the world, but she has never tried it herself.
The same is true for Ling'er.
Compared to Miaoer's reserve, Ling'er didn't have so much concern. She asked directly: "Sister Xin Yi, can these things really make so many delicious things? Are they better than fairy fruits?"
Zhao Xinyi looked up at her and saw that she and Miaoer were both looking for knowledge. She smiled and said, "The immortal fruit has fairy energy and has a fatal attraction to all the little demons. The wild vegetables I dug have no fairy energy. At most, they have grown in an environment full of fairy energy and are touched with a little spiritual energy, so the taste cannot be compared with the immortal fruit. But I can guarantee that it will be another kind of delicacy when it is made."
“What delicious?”
Ling'er asked.
This time, even Ling Yao looked at her curiously.
Zhao Xinyi threw a wild vegetable that he had just dug into the space and raised the corner of his mouth mischievously: "The smell of fireworks on earth."
"ah?"
Ling'er and the other two were a little confused.
Zhao Xinyi rubbed Ling'er's head and said to them: "When I'm done, you can come and taste it and you will know what it tastes."
Ling'er couldn't help but licked her mouth and immediately responded: "Okay!"
Miao'er also wanted to taste what the fireworks on earth tasted, so she was not reserved and smiled shyly at Zhao Xinyi: "That's trouble."
Ling Yao rolled up her sleeves next to her and looked excited: "Your Highness, what else do you need? I'll dig it for you."
Zhao Xinyi pointed the wild vegetables and edible mushrooms to them one by one, and the other three immediately became busy.
Later, under Miaoer's leadership, Zhao Xinyi found another bamboo forest and dug a lot of fresh bamboo shoots from it.
After almost finding these vegetarian dishes, Zhao Xinyi stopped the three people who had already dug wild vegetables and picked mushrooms until they were excited.
"Okay, it's enough, this time I'm enough. When you want to eat next time, you can dig it again. Dig it out at one time, and it won't be fresh next time."
Ling'er jumped over with a handful of mushrooms: "Sister Xin Yi, then are we going back to do it now?"
"I still need some meat." Zhao Xinyi thought for a while and said slowly.
"Meat?!" Ling'er.
"Meat?" Miaoer.
"Meat?!" Ling Yao.
When the three of them heard Zhao Xinyi say that they were talking about flesh, they all said differently.
The three of them are plants and the one is a spiritual creature in the world. They never thought they could eat meat-eating, after all, they were not naturally carnivorous animals.
"Yes." Zhao Xinyi nodded.
"Just pheasants, rabbits and fish."
"Your Highness, you have never eaten meat before." Ling Yao frowned.
Zhao Xinyi looked at her with persistence in her eyes.
Ling Yao held on for a while and then lost to her eyes, and lowered her head dejectedly: "Okay. But your Highness, if you feel uncomfortable after eating, you must not force it."
Zhao Xinyi pinched Lingyao's face half moved and half amused: "Silly Lingyao, I am already an immortal body. How could ordinary meat hurt me?"
Ling Yao patted her head and nodded. She was confused because of her concern.
"Then I'll go and help Your Highness capture the wild □□." Ling Yao said first.
"Then... I'll catch a few fish." Miao'er thought about it. Although she didn't know if she could eat meat, since Zhao Xinyi wanted to eat it, there were so many fish in Wanhua Lake, she would bring a few for her to eat.
"I...I'll catch the rabbit!" Ling'er was not willing to be outdone.
"Thank you." Zhao Xinyi said to them: "I'll go back to the cave and wait for you first. When you catch something, let's follow Lingyao."
"Yes." The three of them nodded.
Zhao Xinyi parted ways with them and returned to the cave where he lived first.
When he walked to the entrance of the cave, Lingyao looked at the barrier he set up. No one touched him and was still intact.
She breathed a sigh of relief, removed the barrier and walked in, and went to see Dandan first.
The barrier around Dandan also removed, and Dandan immediately smelled the smell of his mother and began to jump up excitedly.
Zhao Xinyi seemed to be able to feel the lively villain inside calling her mother happily! Mother!
Zhao Xinyi took out the vase where the flowers had been inserted before, placed it next to Dandan, bent down and kissed Dandan's shell, touched her and said, "Baby, my mother is back, do you miss her mother?"
Dandan rubbed Zhao Xinyi's hand affectionately and jumped like an answer.
Zhao Xinyi happily lowered her head and kissed her again, and whispered to her: "Mom misses you too. She always wonders whether Dandan is good at home? Wouldn't you be unhappy without her mother?"
Dandan rubbed Zhao Xinyi's hand and said that she was very well-behaved, but she also missed her mother very much, and didn't want her mother to leave again.
Zhao Xinyi could feel her emotions. She touched her eggshell with one hand, took the vase next to her with the other, and said to Dandan: "Mom knows Dandan is the most obedient child. Look, this is a gift my mother brought back to you from outside. It is a very beautiful flower and it is very fragrant."
Dandan immediately jumped up excitedly again.
Zhao Xinyi smiled and said, "Okay, okay, mom knows what you want."
She said, pulling out one of the flowers in the vase, using spells to remove the water from the bottom, and then rubbing the flowers with the balloon: "This is the flowers brought back by my mother. Isn't it very fragrant?"
Dandan jumped and responded to Zhao Xinyi's words.
Zhao Xinyi picked out a few more flowers and placed them next to the balls. Then he said to her expectantly: "Baby, look at the world outside so beautiful. You have to work hard to grow up. Come out quickly, and your mother will take you out for fun after coming out."
The balls jumped, expressing their desire to work hard.
After accompanying Dandan for a while, Zhao Xinyi wanted to go to the kitchen outside to process the ingredients.
But I don’t know if it was because she left Dandan alone in the hole in the morning to make her sad. This time when she wanted to leave, Dandan kept beating excitedly, and used all her strength to express her feelings about being with her.
Zhao Xinyi coaxed her for a long time, but she still insisted on following her and was unwilling to let her go.
Zhao Xinyi couldn't bear to be sad, so she finally carried her nest and asked her to go to the kitchen with her.
