Chapter 369: False Confession
listened quietly outside the hall for a while, but fortunately, all that came from the hall was Su Yin's formal answer to the Queen Mother's question, but she didn't say anything shocking.
Situ Jiao relaxed slightly, gave the third princess a look, and the two entered the dormitory one after the other.
Without waiting for Situ Jiao to salute Zhang Guifei, the Queen Mother had already spoken: "Jiaojiao'er, you took Yao'er to the small kitchen, what delicious food did you make?" ”
There was no intention of letting Situ Jiao salute Zhang Guifei at all.
Situ Jiao was happy in her heart, lowered her head slightly, pursed her lips and smiled, turned to the palace maid behind her and pointed to the food box in the palace maid's hand: "It's nothing, just watching the cook make a goat milk steamed egg and blue fish ball." ”
The third princess thought that Situ Jiao was going to pick up the food box, for fear that Situ Jiaoren's lack of strength would knock over the food in the food box, which would be a waste of the two of them in this hour's chaos, and hurriedly signaled the two palace maids to put the food box they were carrying on the small table between the queen mother and the saint.
When the palace maid put the food box away, the third princess took Situ Jiao's hand, took her to the food box, opened a food box, and took out two small cups of blue and white porcelain from them, and put them in front of the queen mother and the saint, obviously inviting the two to taste.
The Queen Mother doesn't like dairy products, and rarely touches dairy products on weekdays, which is an open secret in the palace.
The Queen Mother glanced at the Third Princess and Situ Jiao suspiciously, but saw a strong expectation in the eyes of the two, and then glanced at the undisguised ridicule in Zhang Guifei's eyes, and the Queen Mother made a decision in her heart.
Even if she doesn't like this cup of steamed eggs with goat's milk, she has to try to taste one or two, and she has to make faces for the two girls in front of her no matter what.
I didn't expect a small spoonful into the mouth, the fragrance filled the entire mouth, but there was no trace of smell, if it wasn't for the faint ** under the fine taste, the Queen Mother really couldn't believe that this was a cup of eggs steamed with goat's milk.
A spoonful of belly, the Queen Mother dug another spoonful, this time no longer tasted slowly, only paused in the mouth and entered the stomach, put down the small spoon in his hand and asked in disbelief: "Is this really a steamed egg with goat milk?" Why doesn't there smell there? ”
"Look at what the imperial grandmother said, it is naturally true! If it's fake! The third princess smiled and squinted her eyes, raised her delicate chin arrogantly, and said proudly.
Situ Jiao smiled slightly, and without waiting for the Queen Mother to ask again, she briefly explained the process of making this steamed egg, focusing on the principle of removing the fat.
"It's so easy, almonds can get rid of the smell." After some explanation, the Queen Mother finally understood that Keren also had the magic of removing the smell.
The queen mother here relieved her doubts, and the saint over there opened her mouth again: "What is this?" ”
The sage refers to the small blue balls that rise and fall in the porcelain cup.
"Father, have you tasted it?" The third princess asked first.
"Well, I tasted two, one word fresh!" The saint made no secret of his admiration.
"Father didn't taste what?" Now it was the turn of the third princess to be puzzled.
"I naturally know about these fish balls, but I don't know how to get rid of the fishy smell of the fish? And how did you make this gluttonous blue color? The sage looked at the third princess amusedly, and knew in his heart that this fish ball must not come from the hand of the third princess, and the question behind it was naturally asked by Situ Jiao.
"The fish is fresh fish from the imperial kitchen, and only the part of the back of the fish is chopped into meat foam, and some green vegetable juice is added to the meat foam, and of course ginger juice and lemon juice are indispensable." Situ Jiao had a faint smile on her face, calmly answering the sage's question.
"I see, the mourning family will also come to taste it." The queen mother asked the palace maid who was waiting beside her to move the steamed egg in front of her, changed the fish ball that belonged to her in front of her, tasted the fish ball carefully, nodded while tasting, and ate four fish balls before putting down the silver spoon in her hand, and praised again and again: "Fresh, fragrant, tender and smooth!" ”
Knowing that the food box in the last palace maid's hand was the same meal prepared for Concubine Hui, the Queen Mother urged Situ Jiao and the third princess to send it to Concubine Hui.
The meals were sent to the inner hall, although Concubine Hui didn't eat much, fortunately, the two meals were slightly sweet and salty, which finally aroused Concubine Hui's appetite and ate a little, which made the Queen Mother and the sage greatly relieved.
"Sure enough, Jiaojiao still has a way, reward!" Seeing that Concubine Hui, who had not eaten a grain of rice for a few days, finally had an appetizer, the sage couldn't help but be overjoyed, and gave Situ Jiao a reward with a wave of his hand.
Of course, the Queen Mother will not lag behind, and she also gave Situ Jiao a rich reward, which dazzled Su Yin and made her jealous.
Su Yin arrived in the palace earlier than Situ Jiao today, and when she learned that Situ Jiao had been summoned into the palace to see Concubine Hui, she suddenly felt that the opportunity to compete with Situ Jiao for medical skills had come.
In her previous life, she was the most prestigious military medical college in China, and she was very confident in her own medical skills.
Although she studied neurosurgery, her grades in the basic disciplines of medicine were poor, and she didn't believe that in her eyes, Situ Jiao, who was only a junior high school student at most, could have better medical knowledge than her.
Therefore, she found that Zhang Guifei was already a little distracted when she heard that the Queen Mother and the saint were in the Splendid Palace, so she took Zhang Guifei and took her to the Splendid Palace.
It's a pity that no matter how Zhang Guifei expressed her concern for Concubine Hui, the Queen Mother and the sage had no intention of letting them enter the inner hall of Concubine Hui's bedroom.
I haven't seen Concubine Hui's condition with my own eyes, and even if Su Yin has the opportunity to enter the palace from time to time, she is only an extremely shy person, and there are no rumors of medical skills.
Su Yin, who was repeatedly told by Su Shangshu because of her many outrageous remarks, although she really wanted to show her hand in front of the Queen Mother and the saint, this time she was quite calm, and she did not rashly show off her unknown medical skills, but only endured her temperament and waited for the opportunity.
It's just that she didn't expect the Queen Mother to be so intimate with Situ Jiao, and she completely paid the expression of the elders to the juniors, which made her feel that the original plan in her heart was feasible.
Looking at the meal sent by Situ Jiao and the third princess, it was really nothing in the eyes of Su Yin, who had seen a lot in her previous life, but it was just a rough trick to remove the fat and remove the fish, but it just won the blue eyes of the queen mother and the saint, which made the saint's favorite concubine who had not eaten for a few days appetizing.
But if Su Yin is really asked to solve Concubine Hui's morning sickness, she can't do it, after all, although she studied medicine in her previous life, she didn't practice gynecology and obstetrics, let alone pregnancy, and she didn't know anything about cooking.
In her previous life, Su Yin was taken care of by a nanny when she was at home, and she ate in the cafeteria when she went to college, not to mention cooking rice and stir-frying, and she rarely even entered the kitchen, she could only make bubble instant noodles or something.
If it weren't for Situ Jiao's patient explanation to the Queen Mother and the sage, I was afraid that Su Yin wouldn't have thought of such a way to get fishy.
Such an obvious comparison of advantages and disadvantages greatly hit Su Yin's self-confidence.
Of course, Su Yin's dedication to Yang Lingxiao will not give up because of this small setback. (To be continued.) )
