Chapter 598 - She Is Going With Me
After the gifts and greetings ceremony, everyone moved to the dining hall where a feast for everyone was arranged.
In the separate hall, a large table was arranged in the center with a variety of dishes for the royal family.
Generally, it was arranged in the same hall as others, but since Grandmother Shuren is here, special arrangements were made.
In the center of the table, Ji Cheng was sitting, while Shuren took the seat next to him which is for the Empress Dowager. On his other side, Zhao Ming took her seat as usual.
Wen Xu felt annoyed because she had to sit beside Shuren and her special seat, which carries her title with it, was given to Shuren.
Because of this, she couldn't even eat the special food made by head cook Qian Dan since it's for only Ji Cheng, Empress Dowager, and the Empress.
In the past, she used to enjoy the food made by Qian Dai and doesn't allow Zhao Ming to eat food made by her. However, after her birthday banquet, Ji Cheng asked Qian Dan to serve Zhao Ming as well.
She pursed her lips and ate her food. Even though it's not made by Qian Dan, it was still better than the food she had in that abandoned chamber.
She was eating the dumplings when her eyes fell on Zhao Ming's jewelry. She noticed earlier that Zhao Ming was looking different today.
However, now she looks at it closely, her jewelry is different from usual and is more heavy and beautiful.
However, it looks familiar.
She squinted her eyes and focused on the large ring in Zhao Ming's finger. Her eyes widened in shock when she recognized the ring.
' It was Grandmother Shuren's ring. The ring which she wanted the most. '
Not only that, but all of her jewelry also seems to be Shuren's. Because she has seen these ornaments before.
These were the ornaments given to Shuren in her dowry when she married. Shuren has always treasured these ornaments and never gave these to anyone before.
Her lips pressed in a thin line as she glared at Zhao Ming. [ Read this novel on W e b n o v e l . c o m ( remove spaces). If you are reading this elsewhere, then this novel is pirated. Support the original author, not thieves. Regards Kamlyn]

Three days went in blink doing the daily chores and fulfilling the tasks given to them.
Today, they were supposed to wrap up the shoot and go back to Xia city.
Everyone gathered in the courtyard and had their breakfast. Like always, Xie Ming cooked breakfast for everyone.
Qin Bi tasted the noodles that Xie Ming made and was stupefied with its taste. She glanced at Xie Ming and asked, "Xie Ming, did you added those herbs in it?"
On the first day, Yuan Lei made quite a fuss when Xie Ming added some herbs from the front yard.
Xie Ming nodded and said casually, "Yes. Is there any problem?"
Qin Bi shook her head and replied, " It's delicious. I think whenever you put these herbs in the food, the food becomes more savory and it adds a fresh flavor to it."
Sun Wen and others also nodded agreeing to Qin Bi.
Sun Wen looked at the PD and asked, " Have you asked the locals here? What kind of herb is that?"
Everyone glanced at the PD who was sitting with the camera crew waiting for his response.
" Yes. It's a special herb planted by the locals. It only grows here. They said that it's edible and they also use it in their meals. But Xie Ming, how did you know that it's edible? Because the locals said that it only grows here and others don't know about it since it's not sold in the markets."
When the PD asked this question to Xie Ming, the cameraman focused on Xie Ming to get her shot.
Xie Ming smiled mildly and replied, "Erm...I have some interest in herbs and plants, so when I saw those herbs I knew that they are edible." She said with an awkward smile.
How can she tell if a herb is edible or not?
She has spent all her childhood in her past life moving from one village to another while trying to find the medicinal and edible herbs on their journeys.
Qin Bi was once again surprised by Xie Ming. It's hard to recognize herbs in their wild form but she managed to distinguish if they are edible or not.
Qin Bi kept praising Xie Ming all the time, while Yuan Lei felt annoyed seeing Qin Bi acting like Xie Ming's sidekick.

Sun Wen looked at the cast of Eternal Love and said, " After spending some time with you guys, I can say that this movie is going to be a hit. Since Mr. Han has chosen some talented people, I am sure that like all of his movies, this one is also going to be a big hit. "
With his closing words, the shooting of Village life came to an end and everyone gathered their luggage and waited for their cars to arrive.
" Xie Ming, how are you going back?" Wu Sheng asked her when the regular cast of Village life left one by one and it's mainly their team and the camera crew who were remaining.
He thought that she doesn't have any ride to go back, so he was planning to offer her a ride.
Xie Ming was about to answer when Jian Yan who was standing behind her said, " She is going with me."
"-_-"
Xie Ming pursed her lips and wondered why Jian Yan always says words which can make others misunderstand.
" Er...he means that in the same car since we are from the same company." She tried to explain as she felt that Wu Sheng misunderstood his words.
" Ah, it's good that you have a ride to go back. " Wu Sheng laughed awkwardly after being rejected like this.
Yuan Lei scoffed from the side as she was annoyed seeing Wu Sheng and Jian Yan's obsession over giving a ride to Xie Ming.
As they were talking, they all failed to notice the camera that was recording their interactions.
