"Instant noodles? What is that?" Zhu Heming asked.

Li Zhongfu smiled and said, "You'll know in a moment."

Li Zhongfu took out the commonly used water bottle from under the medicine cabinet, filled a large pot of water, and pressed the switch.

He turned around and went to the kitchen to get three buckets of braised beef flavored instant noodles and three braised eggs.

He opened the instant noodles one by one, took out the fork, put the seasoning in, and first filled one bucket of noodles with water from the water dispenser.

At this time, the water in the water bottle also boiled.

It was just enough to soak the other two buckets of noodles.

He poked the lid with a fork and fixed it on the wall of the bucket. After waiting for a minute, Li Zhongfu pushed three buckets of instant noodles to the three people: "You can eat it, be careful of the heat."

Empress Ma has been cooking for a lifetime, but she has never seen such convenient food: "Is it ready?"

Li Zhongfu explained: "The noodles of instant noodles are fried in advance, and they will fall apart into noodles after being soaked in boiling water, so it is very fast."

After saying this, Empress Ma understood: "It's a bit like dried vegetables."

"Yes, eat it quickly, it won't taste good if it's soaked for too long."

"Then we won't be polite." Zhu Biao smiled gently, handed one of the buckets of noodles to Empress Ma with both hands, and took another bucket of noodles from Zhu Heming.

Pulling out the fork and opening the lid, a strong fragrance immediately burst out.

All three were shocked.

Such a simple way of making it can be so delicious!

Even Chang, who was on the other side of the bed, smelled it, and instantly felt that the food in the rice plate was not fragrant.

Zhu Biao didn't notice Chang's reaction, and took the lead in picking up a strand of noodles with a fork and slurping it.

"Hiss, so hot, so fragrant, so delicious!" Zhu Biao couldn't help but comment after just chewing a mouthful.

As the crown prince, what delicious food has Zhu Biao not eaten?

To be commented on by him like this, you can imagine how much surprise the instant noodles gave him.

Queen Ma and Zhu Heming couldn't help but swallow their saliva and tasted it lightly.

"Wow, it's really delicious."

"It's pretty good."

Zhu Heming stuck out his tongue: "It's just a little numb and a little spicy."

Li Zhongfu laughed: "You think the braised flavor is spicy? If it's spicy, you're afraid you'll cry."

Chang waved her hand: "Third sister, come here and eat a cherry to relax."

Zhu Heming walked over while slurping noodles.

It was not until she saw the cherries on the bedside table that she realized, "How could there be cherries in this snowy season?"

Chang smiled and said, "I don't know. These are all given to me by Doctor Li. There were also peaches, but I ate them all."

Zhu Heming picked up a cherry in disbelief, pinched the handle and put it into his mouth, took a light bite, and smiled, "It's delicious, sweet."

Zhu Biao came over with a bucket of instant noodles, "It's really cherries, Doctor Li, can I... cough cough."

Li Zhongfu understood immediately, "I have all kinds of fruits and vegetables here. If you want to take some back, write a list."

"Okay, I'll write it after you finish eating."

Empress Ma blinked and wanted to ask something, but considering that people should not talk when eating or sleeping, she did not speak and sat silently on the stool in front of the TV, eating instant noodles.

The TV was not playing at the moment.

Chang pressed the pause button.

Because she didn't want to miss any frame.

Empress Ma and the others naturally did not notice the strangeness of the TV.

Seeing them eating so happily, Li Zhongfu felt very interesting.

At the end of the meal, Zhu Biao and the other three drank up all the noodle soup.

Li Zhongfu then remembered that there was still a braised egg that he had not given them: "Old Huang, you can share the braised egg with your mother and sister. It goes perfectly with instant noodles."

"Okay."

After sharing the braised egg with Empress Ma and Zhu Heming, Zhu Biao could not wait to tear open his own braised egg.

After taking a bite of the bouncy braised egg, a complex and special fragrance immediately hit him.

Zhu Biao was fascinated again: "This braised egg seems to be made of eggs, right? I didn't expect eggs to taste like this. It's delicious."

Zhu Heming said: "Brother is right. I like this too. I..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Zhu Heming's throat was choked by the egg yolk in his mouth, and his face turned red.

Chang quickly handed her the porridge that she had not yet drunk.

Zhu Heming took the iron bowl and drank a few mouthfuls of rice soup. He felt better: "Thank you, sister-in-law, you saved my life."

While speaking, Zhu Heming kept looking at the leftovers in Chang's rice plate.

Chang knew that this third sister-in-law had a big appetite. She smiled and handed her the chopsticks: "Would you like to try Dr. Li's cooking?"

Zhu Heming smiled: "Sister-in-law, you don't want to eat anymore?"

"No."

"Okay, leave the rest to me."

Sitting next to the bed, Zhu Heming ate the remaining twice-cooked pork, pickled mustard and tofu, and drank the porridge in less than a minute.

Li ZhongfuLaughing happily.

What a big appetite!

Empress Ma calmly put the boiled egg into her sleeve, took out a handkerchief and wiped her mouth: "I'm sorry to make you laugh, Doctor Li. This child has been spoiled by me and her father."

Li Zhongfu asked: "She is only thirteen or fourteen years old, right?"

"Yes."

"She is indeed still a child. At her age, she is in the period of growth. It is normal to eat more. When I was her age, the meal I ate in one meal was enough for ordinary people to eat for three days."

Zhu Heming gently spit out a cherry pit: "Mother, the doctor said so. You can't let me eat less in the future. I still need to grow."

"What body to grow? It's not good to be too tall or too fat. You won't be able to get married in the future."

Zhu Heming: ╭(╯^╰)╮

...

Although he behaved like a child, Zhu Heming was still quite sensible.

Without asking Empress Ma to tell her, she took two rice plates to the kitchen.

When Li Zhongfu came over, she had already finished cleaning the kitchen.

Empress Ma, who followed, said, "There are so many people in my family living here, I'm sorry to bother Doctor Li. Let us mother and daughter take care of cooking and washing dishes in the future."

Li Zhongfu was not hypocritical: "Okay, then I'll wait for food every day."

After they left the kitchen, Li Zhongfu took five catties of peaches, ten catties of cherries, three catties of snow pears, two catties of green lotus seeds, ten catties of cabbage, five catties of red amaranth, and ten catties of cowpeas from the cupboard according to the list listed by Zhu Biao.

After carrying all the things to the entrance of the clinic, Li Zhongfu said to Zhu Biao: "It's all here. When you take it back, eat the cherries first. Mei Zao is a different variety from others and it goes bad very easily."

Zhu Biao nodded repeatedly: "Thank you, Doctor Li. I came in a hurry and only brought this little money. Please accept it. Just think of it as buying vegetables and fruits with you.

As for the calligraphy and collection you want, I will send it to you as soon as possible."

"Okay."

Li Zhongfu took the small box handed over by Zhu Biao and opened it with interest.

There were three currencies in it: gold, silver and copper.

There were five copper coins in total, each of different sizes, all engraved with the words "Hongwu Tongbao".

Li Zhongfu usually studied ancient Chinese medical books, which inevitably involved some obscure ancient words.

In order to check the meaning, he also learned a lot of allusions, geography, history, etc.

Picking up the smallest copper coin and taking a look, Li Zhongfu concluded that it was made only in the past one or two years.

In other words, Huang Yiping and his team came from the Hongwu period under the rule of Zhu Yuanzhang, the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

Hongwu Tongbao has five specifications, namely, Dangshi, Dangwu, Dangsan, Danger and Dangyi.

Dangyi copper coin is commonly known as one penny, weighing about 3.73g, that is, one penny.

Danger means to treat it as two Dangyi copper coins.

Similarly, Dangshi copper coin weighs 37.3g, that is, one liang.

After playing with it for a while, Li Zhongfu admired the silver and gold ingots again.

They are exactly the images in Li Zhongfu's impression of movies and TV dramas.

The difference is that the ones given by Huang Yiping are black in color and rough on the surface.

This shows that they have been circulating in the market for a long time, and they may have been cast in the Song and Yuan dynasties.

What's more lovely is that the silver and gold of one liang are small, and Li Zhongfu can grab a handful with one hand.

In the early Ming Dynasty, one tael of silver could be exchanged for 1,200 copper coins, and one tael of gold could be exchanged for four taels of silver.

Li Zhongfu counted and found a total of 15 taels of gold, 15 taels of silver, and 21 copper coins.

Even if we only use the modern precious metal prices, it would be worth hundreds of thousands.

Of course, if the fruits and vegetables that Li Zhongfu gave to Zhu Biao were sold in the early Ming Dynasty, it would probably be worth more than this amount of gold and silver.

So both parties were considered to have taken advantage.
