Chapter 560: Chapter 559: Could It Be, She Has Already Been Recognized?
All around the world, everyone was looking at the Lijia Worm in Xiaoyao’s hand.
Xiaoyao herself seemed quite comfortable, apparently not feeling the pitying glances cast her way.
After peeling the crayfish, she looked up at the man standing by her side.
"Will you eat, or shall I?"
Wow!
What a bold young girl!
Setting aside her attitude toward the Prince, which wasn’t the least bit respectful,
her very words were practically a capital offense!
The Prince’s body was too valuable; how could he possibly eat a worm?
But to everyone’s surprise, Prince Yexuan actually reached out and took the Lijia Worm from the young girl’s hand.
The Lijia Worm had already been peeled, and its tender white flesh was exposed.
He lowered his head, bit into the white flesh, chewed twice, and then swallowed it.
The Prince ate the Lijia Worm!
He really did!
Feng Jinrui had been impatient all along!
"Loyal Brother..." he rubbed his hands together.
He, too, needed to give the people confidence that the Lijia Worm was indeed edible.
Feng Yexuan felt somewhat helpless; originally, his brother had matured a lot after a stint on the battlefield.
But unexpectedly, on the way back, he met such a little girl, and the two of them together instantly became like children!
Feng Yexuan nodded his head.
Immediately, Feng Jinrui rolled up his sleeves and joined Xiaoyao in digging in.
This Fourteenth Prince was much easier to get along with than Prince Yexuan, taking care of himself and eating to his heart’s content.
Not like a certain high-and-mighty Prince who needed to be waited on even to eat.
Xiaoyao paid no attention to Feng Yexuan anymore, laughing and eating happily with Feng Jinrui, seemingly overjoyed.
Even from a distance, Ye Qingying could tell that her laughter was relaxed and hearty.
Why were they together?
Could it be, Feng Yexuan had already recognized her?
However, looking at Feng Yexuan’s attitude toward Xiaoyao, it was clearly cold, stern, and even had a sense of aloofness.
It wasn’t like when he was with Chu Qianli.
But why were they still able to be together?
The townsfolk gradually began to buzz with excitement.
The Fourteenth Prince and the little girl were happily eating Lijia Worms.
Even Prince Yexuan occasionally accepted a Lijia Worm from the little girl and took a few bites.
Seeing the way the Fourteenth Prince was enjoying it, it seemed as if... as if the Lijia Worm was really tasty!
The Magistrate was eating them too!
The Magistrate even called out to everyone, "Whoever dares can come and try them with the Prince and me!"
There was no so-called reward, nothing at all, just sharing the tasting together.
At first, no one dared.
Gradually, one or two people stepped forward.
If the Prince and the Fourteenth Prince could eat it, why fear it might be poisonous?
In the end, the townsfolk started bustling about, forming a long queue to take turns tasting.
The Lijia Worms were indeed edible!
Not only were they edible, but they were also particularly delicious!
They tasted even better than ordinary shrimp!
From today on, the Lijia Worm had a new name: crayfish!
After tasting the crayfish, the people each took a basket to the fields to catch crayfish.
If they didn’t catch them now, they’d soon be gone, snapped up by others.
The Magistrate was almost moved to tears of gratitude toward Xiaoyao; she had not only solved the townspeople’s immediate food problem but also the pest infestation.
Once the crayfish population was under control, crops could be planted again, and it was clear to see that the days ahead for the people of Qingxi Town were going to get better and better.
Who would have thought that an issue even the imperial envoy couldn’t resolve could be so perfectly handled by Xiaoyao with just a pot of spicy crayfish!
That day, after the matter was settled, Xiaoyao immediately made a request to leave, to go back to the inn.
But what she never expected was that Prince Yexuan actually wanted to accompany her to see her master.
"My master doesn’t like crowds, doesn’t like meeting strangers," Xiaoyao protested just before entering.
But Feng Yexuan’s face was expressionless, and his steps did not halt.
Xiaoyao, left without a choice, went ahead to push the door open:
"Master, I’m back!"
