Unfortunately, what no one knows is that more than half of the property of the Cheng family has fallen into the hands of Cheng Yuanjia, because the Cheng family does not store the family's property in the family, but is scattered in each silver number, while Cheng Yuanjia controls most of the silver number.

Yuanjia is not very interested in the Cheng family's property, just out of instinctive control.

In this warm environment, the seventh prince and others soon began to sweat on their foreheads. Looking at Cheng Yuanjia, her clothes were very soft. They were not worn in winter at all. Of course, they would not be hot.

Cheng Yuanjia looked at the seventh prince and said, "I'm as warm as spring here. You're still wearing winter clothes. Do you think I'm not warm enough here or your clothes are actually quite cool."

"It's not polite to take off clothes in front of such a beautiful woman." The seventh prince didn't care and smiled, "Since the prince is kind, I'll take it off."

What the seventh prince said was quite ambiguous. The four captains all smiled and their expressions were very ambiguous.

Cheng Yuanjia glanced at the four captains, and the four immediately stopped laughing, but it was very hard to see their appearance.

"If you like to wear it, just wear it. If you go out and have a cold wind and a fever, just don't blame me." Cheng Yuanjia turned around slightly and did not look at the seventh prince.

The seventh prince smiled, stood up and took off his coat and handed it to the maid on the side. Being roasted by hundreds of stoves and wearing thick fur, it was simply looking for pain. The four captains also stood up and wanted to take off their coats, but they heard a very harsh voice: "Don't take them off. Wear them for me."

The four captains immediately looked bitter and had to sit down.

A dozen maids turned out of the backyard, each with an exquisite plate in his hand. On the plate was a small crystal carved bowl. From the transparent wall of the bowl, they saw food like porridge.

Six maids served a bowl of porridge for each of them, and the others waited on the side with plates. For a small bowl of this capacity, maybe one bowl is enough for Cheng Yuanjia. Others, not to mention one bowl, may not be full even if they eat five or six bowls.

"Since today is Laba Festival, I won't invite you to eat any delicacies. I'll invite you to try my special Laba porridge. Don't underestimate this small bowl, which is more precious than the same weight of gold. Cheng Yuanjia pointed to a small bowl of porridge in front of him and said, "These eight ingredients, not to mention that you have never seen them, I'm afraid you haven't even heard of them. You might as well guess what these eight materials are. Guess the prize.

"Oh? What's the prize?" The seventh prince was very interested. He picked up the small bowl and looked at it carefully and said, "It seems to be a little different."

"Every time I guess the same, I will reward a thousand taels of silver." Cheng Yuanjia, who is rich, doesn't care about gold and silver at all.

Before the seventh prince made a statement, the four captains immediately exclaimed, grabbed the small bowl in front of them and tossed it around with a small spoon. The seventh prince didn't move, but smiled at Cheng Yuanjia and said, "The world is so big that it's difficult to find out eight things we don't know, and it's not easy to say."

"That's true, but these things I have are not what you know in common sense." Cheng Yuanjia ordered the maid, "Go to my room and take eight silver tickets of 1,000 taels, and give them to whoever guesses."

The maid took the order, but Cheng Yuanjia still looked like a little rooster and said, "Now you can guess."

In the crystal clear small bowl, Cheng Yuanjia's special Laba porridge shows a light red color, which looks very attractive. The four captains have turned over this small bowl of porridge. Except for counting that there are indeed eight ingredients, they really don't see anything. Even the most basic raw rice is not like ordinary rice. Although it is cooked so well that you can't see how big the original rice grains are, it is very certain that this is definitely not ordinary rice.

In addition to rice, the other raw materials of Laba porridge, red dates, walnuts, black rice, fragrant rice, corn, raisins, red beans and millet, seem to have completely changed here, but they can't be recognized.

"Are you sure you can eat all these things?" The seventh prince didn't recognize it. He ate a lot of good food in the palace, but he hadn't even seen anything in this bowl.

"Of course it's edible." Cheng Yuanjia glanced at him, gently blew the heat on the porridge, and gently scooped a spoon and put it to his mouth. Generally, Laba porridge is dark red because of black rice, but this porridge is pink, like boiling a bowl of peach blossoms in a bowl.

Seeing that Cheng Yuanjia had eaten first, the seventh prince quickly picked up the crystal bowl and took a few bites. His question just now aroused Cheng Yuanjia's more excited reaction. He was afraid that she would be unhappy. And the porridge looks strange in color, but the fragrance is absolutely first-class. In the mouth of the red porridge, I only felt that it was refreshing and smooth. I didn't need to chew it at all. It slid down my throat, and an unspeakable fragrance flowed in my teeth and cheeks. This taste was so wonderful that he almost swallowed his tongue.

On a table next to it, the four captains also began to taste the seemingly strange Laba porridge. The first spoon of the four big old people still pretended to scoop a spoon with a small spoon, but the second bite was wrong. It's not the second spoon, but the second bite, because they all ruthlessly abandoned the exquisite small spoon and directly picked up the bowl and poured it into their mouths. This crystal bowl is very small, which is disproportion to these big and thick men. With a big mouth, a bowl of porridge is poured in with a blink of an eye.

The captain of the bodyguard of the King of Qi was originally a chivalrous man. At this moment, he put the bowl and shouted, "Good thing, give me another big bowl."

The seventh prince almost drilled under the table when he heard the words. This is Cheng Yuanjia's house, and she is an elegant person who is extremely tasteful. Even the small bowl of porridge is exquisitely carved with the best transparent crystal, and the maid who serves the bowl is also a beautiful girl. At present, I was shouted by the captain, and people who didn't know thought it was in a teahouse.

This guy is actually the person who brought him to the banquet. I brought him by mistake. The seventh prince was so ashamed that he could not add any more.

Cheng Yuanjia was also shocked by the sudden voice and turned her head to look at the captains. The other three captains also looked at the captain of the bodyguard in surprise, and the captain of the bodyguard also reacted and blushed at a loss.

"Come on, give him a big bowl." Cheng Yuanjia's face did not change, and he ordered, "After the meal, weigh it, and go back to collect the same weight of gold from him."

"What?" The four captains stood up together. The captain who roared just now was surprised and said, "You don't have to pay for treating us porridge."

"First of all, make it clear that I invited the seventh prince to have porridge, but I didn't invite you. Since you are also here, of course I won't drive you away, but I don't cook much porridge. Each of you comes to a large bowl, and I don't have to drink it. Therefore, I will only give you two small bowls of each. If you eat more, please exchange it for the equivalent of gold. Cheng Yuanjia drank the porridge slowly and said, "I also said before that the value of this porridge is equivalent to gold. Is it too much to charge you?"

"How can there be such an expensive porridge?" The captain was unconvinced, he said.

"You can't even recognize what's in it. Why don't you know it's worth the price?" Cheng Yuanjia was quite interested and continued, "I can tell you the truth, this porridge is much more valuable than gold. You are all practicing martial arts. You might as well cheer up now and see if it is smoother than usual.

The four people quickly mentioned it and looked at each other in con'ssment. It's still the captain who said, "Not only is it much smoother, but it's more solid than before. Is this porridge made of medicinal herbs?

"Do you smell like medicine in it?" Cheng Yuanjia put down the crystal bowl that had seen the bottom and said, "The things in it are more precious than medicinal materials. Even if you take gold and silver, there is no place to buy them, because I planted them. Do you think what I grow can't be worth the equivalent of gold?

"Did you grow it?" This time, the question was asked by the seventh prince: "Where did you grow it?"

"You don't need to know this now. If it's necessary in the future, I can take you to see it." Cheng Yuanjia would not reveal his biggest secret casually. He smiled at the seventh prince and said, "They have to pay. You don't have to. You can eat as much as you want. But if they can't pay, I want you to pay for them.

At this time, a maid walked into the pavilion with a large bowl of porridge and asked Cheng Yuanjia, "Miss, after removing the weight of the bowl, it is eight taels in total."
