During dinner, everyone basically revolved around Xiao Xi——
Ming Lanruo guided Cang Qiao to experience how to feed her cubs.
Xiaoxi also gave full play to her abilities and let him know that her father is not such an easy person.
"Hey, my mother worked so hard to raise me, don't you know?"
The little guy said to Cang Qiao earnestly, and took advantage of the situation to wipe his chest with the oily little hand that had grabbed the chicken leg.
Cang Qiao lowered her head and glanced at the pile of rice grains on her exquisite silver brocade robe and the oil stains on the skirt, with anger hidden in the corners of her eyes.
He took a deep breath and smiled: "Well, now, I understand."
Ming Lanruo suppressed her smile, "Very good, very good."
Her little armor really let Cang Qiao experience the hard work of "parenting".
It wasn't until Chunhe came over and took Xiaoxi to take a walk in the yard to eat that Cang Qiao breathed a sigh of relief.
Ming Lanruo asked the maid to bring the hot water for facial cleansing, and washed Cang Qiao's hands and face: "You wash it, I'll have some food heated up later."
Xiao Xi was making a fuss just now, so he almost didn't eat, and she didn't eat anything either, so the two of them drank a bowl of tofu and fish head soup.
The food is cold.
Xiao Qizi's voice came from outside the door: "Master Governor, the roasted whole lamb from the Western Regions is ready."
Cang Qiao washed her hands with the soap and said to the door: "Well, bring it in."
Ming Lanruo was stunned: "What, you prepared roasted whole lamb, why didn't you bring it in just now?"
Cang Qiao said: "The weather is cold, so it is best to eat roasted mutton. However, roasted mutton is a tonic and should not be eaten by children."
Ming Lanruo watched as Xiao Qizi led someone to carry half a roasted lamb in.
Xiao Qizi asked people to change all the dishes and tablecloths on the table, and then said respectfully——
"The legs and chops are the most delicious parts of this kind of lamb. The remaining mutton has been distributed to other people in the mansion according to my instructions."
Cang Qiao nodded: "Well, you go down."
The charred aroma of roasted lamb and the fiery aroma of strange spices will make you appetizing on a cold winter day.
While Cang Qiao washed her hands gracefully, she said to Ming Lanruo: "Although Xiao Xi can't eat roasted lamb, I've asked someone to prepare mutton soup and send it to Xiao Xi's room later."
Ming Lanruo was stunned and sent him to Xiao Xi's room. Does this mean he wouldn't let Xiao Xi come over?
She turned her head and saw that Cang Qiao had casually untied his oil-stained robe.
There is also a snow-white undershirt that Xiao Xi deliberately touched to the hem, revealing a sexy white chest with clear texture!
An elegant and uninhibited look.
"——!!" Ming Lanruo suddenly turned back with a hot face. This man took off his clothes no matter what.
Ming Lanruo looked at the roasted mutton, with its skin golden and crispy, and its oily aroma flowing out. She cleared her throat——
"Ahem, it smells so good. What kind of spice is this? I've never smelled it before."
Cang Qiao's faint voice sounded behind her: "This thing is called cumin, and there are some other spices that Silver Fox brought back from the Western Regions. It tastes very good."
Ming Lanruo tightened her slender waist and was already caught in his arms. His delicate and lonely chin rested on her neck: "Want to try?"
Ming Lanruo only felt a heat on her back, as his warm and hard chest and abdomen pressed against her slender back.
"Well...you can eat meat if you want to, and be more serious." She moved uncomfortably.
Although this is not the first time I have had skin-to-skin contact with him.
But the charming and suffocating aura about Cang Qiao... always made her heart beat and blush.
Also, when he used his original identity, he was always too "doing whatever he wanted" and "curious for knowledge" when it came to love.
It's not uncomfortable...
It's just that sometimes, it's so shameful that she can't stand it.
"What's wrong with me here?"
Cang Qiao took the gorgeous knife inserted into the barbecue, cut a piece of roast lamb, inserted it on the tip of the knife and brought it to Ming Lanruo's lips: "Try your skills?"
He marinated the meat himself today.
Ming Lanruo hesitated for a moment, then opened her mouth and bit the small piece of meat.
Sure enough, the roasted lamb was crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, juicy, and had a spicy and fragrant aroma. It tasted good...
"Um..." She groaned and held his hand that reached into her clothes.
"Why, the little lady doesn't like it, it doesn't taste good?" Cang Qiao raised her eyebrows and lowered her head to smell the aroma of the girl's hair in her arms.
The little empress had just washed her hair in the morning. The aroma of peaches was like the smell of spring, but it also had the astringency of leaves.
Ming Lanruo's fair face turned red: "It's delicious..."
As she spoke, she randomly took the knife to cut the mutton.
Cang Qiao slowly lowered his head and kissed her collarbone, then took her out of her clothes and said, "The peach-flavored gochujang this morning tastes very good."
"Can't you just... have a good meal?" Although there was an earth dragon in the room, Ming Lanruo still felt chilly and said dullly.
Her hand holding the knife curled up and she squeezed the handle of the knife tightly.
Cang Qiao chuckled, stretched out his hand to press her face down on the table, pressed her trembling back, then held the knife in her hand with one hand, and also held her hand in his hand——
"Of course you can. I'll cut the mutton. It's not okay for me to cut the meat like this. This barbecue must be cut like this. I'll teach you."
Ming Lanruo watched as he held the knife in his hand and actually cut off the mutton piece by piece with incomparable accuracy.
His slender fingers moved steadily and accurately to make the size and thickness of each piece of meat surprisingly consistent.
"Cang Qiao... we are eating, first... eat..." Ming Lanruo began to tremble involuntarily, trying to struggle to escape from his control.
But his slender body was like a ferocious beast suppressing his little female beast. How could he let her run away while eating?
"Little empress, you are gone and I won't see you for several months. I will be hungry for a long time. Shouldn't you accompany me to eat for a whole day?" He lowered his head and bit the back of her neck gently and ambiguously.
The subtle stinging and warm and moist touch on the back of her neck made her tremble even more violently. She closed her eyes and said, "The barbecue will get cold, so just eat first...can't you?"
He seemed to be controlling all her senses, and that feeling made her panic.
His mood was not right. The last time it was like this was the day before she was forced to marry Shangguan Hongye.
He was in the East Factory... From now on, she didn't dare to use the step he gave her specially.
"Well, isn't this eating?" He whispered hoarsely behind her ear.
With that said, he once again brought the meat to her lips with the dagger with one hand.
Look at her fragile and blurred eyes, with a layer of wet water, tempting her to tear her apart.
He chuckled, and the movements of his hands became more and more aggressive: "Be Ruoruo, this tastes crispy and spicy, try it again."
Ming Lanruo trembled her red lips, biting the fragrant meat on the tip of the dagger angrily, and groaned: "You bastard - ooohhhhh!"
She suddenly opened her beautiful eyes slightly, clutched the tablecloth tightly, and her groan almost turned into a scream.
