Liu Mingzhi is not a fool, so he is very clear in his heart.
What Sister Ya just said was ostensibly meant for Qi Run, but in fact she was meant for herself.
When Qi Ya saw Young Master Liu's reaction, she knew that her husband had listened to her words.
In this case, there is no need for me to continue saying anything.
Qi Ya withdrew her gaze with a smile and gently held Qi Run's hands.
"Dad, eat the roasted sweet potatoes quickly. They won't taste good when they're cold."
Qi Run nodded sadly, broke the roasted sweet potato in his hand into two halves, and then stuffed the larger half into Qi Ya's hand.
"Ya'er, daddy can eat half of it, and you can eat it too."
Qi Ya didn't refuse anything and peeled off the sweet potato with a chuckle.
"Okay, thank you dad."
The third princess patted her dark fingers gently, stood up and walked to the wooden frame a few steps away, picked up half a basin of water and returned.
She put the half-copper basin of water on the ground and gestured to Young Master Liu with a smile.
"Husband, I put some clean water here. You can just wash it off later."
Young Master Liu casually threw the dark sweet potato skin into the bamboo basket and waved his hand to the third princess with a smile.
"Yan'er, Lian'er, Sister Shan, Xiaoxi and you sisters have finished washing first.
Husband, old man, father-in-law, we are all rough old men, so just use the water you have left."
The third princess stood up gracefully and pointed towards the outside of the palace.
"Husband, there is only so much water in the copper basin. After my sisters use it, Dad and Uncle Qi will not be able to use it anymore.
There are many eunuchs outside the main hall, and the maids have brought hot water, so I can just go there and clean myself."
As soon as the third princess finished speaking, Murong Shan, Qing Lian, sisters Huyan Yunyao and others all agreed.
"Husband, Sister Yan'er is right, we sisters can just go outside and clean up."
"Husband, my sisters have finished eating the sweet potatoes. We sisters are going to clean up first."
When Liu Dashan saw that the Queen and her sisters had stood up one after another, he could only chuckle and nodded.
"Okay then, you sisters, just go to the main hall."
"Hey, my sisters passed by first."
The three princesses and other sisters responded in unison and walked hand in hand towards the outside of the palace.
"Old man, father-in-law, do you have another sweet potato? Which one of you two will eat it?"
"Hiccup! I don't want to eat anymore."
"Zhi'er, I'm not particularly hungry. You can eat by yourself."
Liu Zhi'an and Qi Run replied casually, squatted in front of the copper basin and began to wash the carbon black off their hands.

"Chengfeng, you can eat."
"Okay, thank you dad."
Young Master Liu stood up and stretched. After Liu Zhi'an and the others stood up, they also squatted on the ground and started cleaning.
"Ride the wind."
Liu Chengfeng quickly swallowed the sweet potatoes in his mouth and looked up at Young Master Liu.
"Huh? Dad?"
Young Master Liu first vigorously shook off the water stains on his hands, then took out his handkerchief from his sleeves and wiped it silently.
"Chengfeng, it has been more than half a year since Serena followed you back to our Dalong.
Has she told you in private about when she plans to return to Tsarist Russia?"
Hearing his father's question, Liu Chengfeng immediately trembled, and a nervous look appeared in his eyes.
He is Serena's husband, and Serena is his wife.
There are naturally no secrets between the couple.
Serena naturally would not hide it from herself as to when she planned to return to Tsarist Russia.
But, what is the reason why Dad asked himself this question?
Does he want Serena to go back? Or does he not want Serena to go back?
If it's the former, there's no need to be nervous.
However, if it is the latter.
How should you answer?
Liu Chengfeng looked at Young Master Liu with hesitation, but did not say anything for a long time.
Liu Dashan saw his eldest son's nervous eyes and complex expression of hesitating to speak. He reached out and picked up the tea on the table and took a sip.
"Ride the wind."
"Ah? Ah! Dad?"
Young Master Liu raised his eyes and glanced at Liu Zhi'an, who was standing outside the palace door and had already begun to puff up the smoke. Qi Run and Qi Run gently fiddled with the tea lids in their hands, and walked towards the door of the palace slowly.
Go.
Upon seeing this, Liu Chengfeng stuffed the half-remaining sweet potato into the hand of his third brother Liu Chengqian, and hurriedly got up and followed him.
Liu Chengqian looked at the sweet potato in his hand, then at his elder brother's hurried back, and sighed with a complicated expression.
"well!"
Liu Mingzhi walked slowly down the corridor in the palace garden. He took a sip of warm tea and looked back at his eldest son who was following behind him.
"What? Has this girl Serena never told you that she wants to go back to Tsarist Russia?"
Liu Chengfeng's body trembled violently, and his expression, which was already a little nervous, became even more nervous at this moment.
Even, I don't know when, a thin layer of sweat started to appear on his forehead.
The cold wind howled and the snow fell heavily.
In this kind of weather, Liu Chengfeng actually had a layer of sweat on his forehead.
One can imagine how nervous he was already.
"Dad, I...I..."
Liu Mingzhi looked at the fine sweat on his eldest son's forehead, casually took out his handkerchief from his sleeve and threw it away.
"Chengfeng, you don't need to be nervous about anything.
You can answer whatever you want, if it is, it is, and if it is not, it is not."
"Thank you dad!"
Liu Chengfeng first wiped the sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief, and then gently breathed out hot air.
"Reply to dad, I told you."
"Isn't that enough? Why are you so nervous?"
"Yes, yes, that's what dad said."
"When does Serena plan to leave Dalong and rush back to Tsarist Russia?"
"Wait until next spring when the ice and snow melt."
"Then did Serena tell you what she thought?
Does she plan to go back to Tsarist Russia first and then rush back to Dalong when she has time, or does she plan to let you and Chenyu go back with her?"
Liu Chengfeng shook his head gently, raised his hand and handed the handkerchief to Young Master Liu.
"Tell me, my wife has never mentioned these matters to my son."
