Dressed as a peasant girl, the prince actually wants to seduce me

Chapter 113 The Emperor's Villa is Completed

From the grandmother's perspective, her grandchildren are frying stones and chewing something in their mouths. Doesn't that amount to eating stones?

"Oh my, my silly grandchildren, you can't eat these stones." Grandma hurried over to see if Su An was really eating the stones.

The third brother looked at the chestnut skin in his hand. He just ate a few steamed chestnuts secretly! How did it become eating stones?

"Grandma, we are frying chestnuts." The third brother explained several times and even opened his mouth to let grandma see that what he was eating were chestnuts, not stones, before grandma believed him.

The other people were enjoying the show, so why did they think only he ate the stone while others did not?

Pour the chestnuts into the sand and stir-fry until there is no water left. Continue to add sugar and stir-fry for a while, and the fragrant sugar-fried chestnuts will be ready.

Take out the chestnuts and the remaining stones can be used next time.

Each chestnut is glossy and shiny, and they all open on their own. You won't suddenly eat a chestnut that isn't open, and then have to use all your strength to bite it with your teeth.

"It's fragrant and hot. It's really comfortable to eat this in winter."

"Su girl, we are here." The voice of the emperor suddenly sounded outside the door.

"Grandpa Ji is here?" Su Mu went out to greet him with chestnuts still in his hand.

Ji Shiyan pushed the door open and came in. "The house is finished. We came to take a look and move the furniture in."

"You're here for the seasonal banquet too?"

"Why not welcome?" Ji Shiyan raised his eyebrows.

"Can you go back if you're not welcome?" Su Mu said deliberately.

"That won't work."

"Su girl, our house has been built. Would you like to go and have a look?" The emperor walked past Ji Shiyan and came to Su Mu.

"Go!" She went to see how the retired emperor's house was built so that she could build her own house next year.

"Brother Su, everyone come with us. I will treat you to lunch at the new house at noon." The emperor invited everyone.

"Okay." Everyone agreed readily.

Su Mu distributed chestnuts to everyone, and everyone ate the chestnuts as they passed by.

“These chestnuts are fried really well.”

After walking a few steps, they arrived at the gate of the small courtyard. The courtyard was built very exquisitely, and the details were handled very well, including the direction of the water channel when it rains and the paving of the ground.

Many people were coming and going in the villa, moving things. The main furniture of the entire villa was almost ready, and the beds and quilts had all been arranged.

The emperor happily introduced his idea to everyone, "This is a very spacious courtyard. I cancelled all the pavilions, rockeries and streams in the original design."

"Here, I'm going to plant trees in these empty plots." The emperor pointed to another spot, "Here I'm going to plant flowers."

Continuing to walk inside, "I also have a vegetable garden here to grow some vegetables, and a shed behind to raise some chickens, ducks and geese."

"Brother Ji, this is well built. Life here is so enjoyable."

"Brother Su has a good vision. The craftsmen advised me not to build it this way."

He didn't want a royal villa like those in past dynasties. He just wanted to build the house he liked, regardless of his social status.

"I have quite a lot of empty rooms, three or four bedrooms, and I also left a room for Ji Shiyan. He insisted that he should come and stay here often." The emperor led the way and introduced them one by one.

Su Mu looked at Ji Shiyan and asked, "What's the matter, little brother? You're still thinking about living here permanently."

Ji Shiyan smiled but said nothing. What's wrong with him wanting to come and stay here more often? How could he not seize the good conditions of the emperor?

The two of them had eye contact in the back, and it was unknown whether the other party could receive each other's signals.

"This is the kitchen, and this is where we eat. We're going to eat here today."

A large table had been set up in the hall, and several people were busy wiping the table and cleaning.

"I'll show you the bedroom."

"Is this okay?" Su Dingguo hesitated. The bedroom is a very private place.

"It doesn't matter. We haven't lived here yet." The emperor didn't particularly care about it.

"This is the bed I prepared for myself." A long, thin bunk bed.

"This is Ji Shiyan's bed. I don't know why he likes such a big bed."

There was a huge bed in Ji Shiyan's room, not sure if it was two meters or one meter and eighty centimeters long.

Su Mu was surprised that someone liked a big bed as much as she did! She liked to roll around on a big bed, but the rule was that the bed and bedroom couldn't be too big.

"Do you also like sleeping in a big bed?" Su Mu poked Ji Shiyan's arm.

"Yeah, you like it too?"

"Yes! Yes! Finally there is someone who likes big beds as much as I do!" Su Mu was excited to meet someone who shared the same hobby.

Ji Shiyan actually knew that Su Mu liked a big bed. The little girl once said that she must sleep in a big bed in the future! So he also slept in a big bed.

The emperor heard Su Mu's words, "Does Su girl also like to sleep in a big bed?"

"Ah, yes." Su Mu answered honestly.

"It's good for a little girl to sleep in a big bed. It's so spacious."

Ji Shiyan: That’s not what you said to me.

"Su girl, I will buy you a big bed in the future." The emperor looked at Su Mu with kindness.

"Brother Ji, you don't know that Mumu not only likes big beds, but also big quilts. Last time we played a quilt that was 6 feet wide and 7 feet long."

"is it?"

"Yes, ever since I put on the big quilt, I feel it is very comfortable, and I don't have to worry about air leaks because it is tightly covered."

"I'll try getting a big quilt for the bed, too."

Ji Shiyan: Now that I know, all my quilts will be big in the future, otherwise they won’t be enough for two people.

Ji Shiyan was taking notes silently in his mind along the way.

"Let's go, let's eat!"

A group of people sit together to eat. At this moment, they are two families of friends, and in the future they will be best neighbors, or who knows what other identities they may have in the future.

Su Mu and his friends brought a lot of warm-home gifts, as well as some vegetables, fruits, and fresh cherries that had recently grown in the space.

"What kind of fruit is this?" The emperor pinched a red cherry and ate it.

"This is a cherry. I bought a lot of saplings. I don't know what kind of fruit the shopkeeper gave me. This is the cherry when I grow it."

"Girl Su is amazing!"

There were many dishes on the table, including delicate small plates as well as large pots of dishes with large portions. Everyone was eating and laughing happily.

"Tomorrow is the winter solstice. Brother Ji, come over to our place and make dumplings for us tomorrow."

"Sure! I've never made dumplings before, so this time I can try something new."

"I'll teach you tomorrow!"

At this moment, snowflakes began to fall outside.

"It's snowing! It's snowing!"

After dinner, Sumu ran out excitedly and stood under the corridor looking at the snowflakes falling from the sky. It was very beautiful.

Reaching out to catch the snowflakes, they melted in his hands, leaving a few water stains, and fell on the treetops, but melted very slowly. Ji Shiyan quietly stood behind Su Mu, looking at the heavy snow in the sky.

A voice came from inside the house: "Auspicious snow means a good harvest!"
