The Li family actually wants to give Liu Mingru a chance, after all, the Mo and Liu families have been engaged for many years, and they have always been good before, and they should get married next year, but they said at this moment that they want to withdraw from their relatives, which is really a big deal. If Liu Mingru can seize this opportunity, she will turn a blind eye, anyway, this woman married back to the house, didn't she let her brother Jing and her mother-in-law rub the round?

Thinking about it, Liu Mingru is just a little more ambitious, a little more vanity, and he just wants to climb higher for a while.

It's a pity that this temptation, Liu Mingru is greedy and stupid at all! In front of her future mother-in-law-to-be, she really dared to offer to cook food for other men with her own hands! Let's not talk about her thoughts, just this behavior that doesn't know how to observe words and colors, doesn't know how to advance and retreat, and doesn't know shame, is definitely not worthy of her smart brother Jing'er, wouldn't it be an insult to him to let him marry this Liu Mingru!

However, she is reluctant to propose to withdraw her relatives herself, although this can slap Liufu's face and the face of Mrs. Liu's mother and daughter, but the two families will definitely have a bad relationship, the Liu family is one of the richest families in Jiangnan County, even if Mofu no longer needs Liufu's help, but he doesn't want Liufu to find trouble for Mofu.

That old man Liu is said to be not a good thing, and there was a merchant who offended him, and he hired some ruffians to harass him every day, so that he couldn't stay in Jiangnan County and had to move to another country.

She can't give her master such trouble.

Where did Liu Mingru know Li's thoughts, she only focused on the lotus chicken she wanted to make for Li Chengfeng, and she was thinking about how to wrap it to look delicate and special, and she must let Young Master Li feel her intentions!

Li got up and said, "Since Mingru is willing to help, it's the best, the hour is running out, let's hurry to the big kitchen to prepare." ”

"Yes, ma'am."

Liu Mingru happily followed the Li family to the big kitchen of the Li Mansion, and the maids and women she met along the way were a little strange to see her, but the rules of everyone's mansion made them dare not say a word.

In the big kitchen, everyone was busy, and there was a small stove that seemed to be dedicated to the Li family now, and the chicken legs that Mrs. Li wanted were stewed on it.

A wooden basin on the side is filled with water, and a stack of fresh and delicate lotus petals is dipped on it. There was a strong fragrance wafting in another small clay pot, and Li walked over to open the lid, and Liu Mingru saw that there was half a tender chicken in it. Li Shi looked at it, inserted the chopsticks again, and said: "There is still some heat left, Mingru, you come over, and then wait for you to try the heat with chopsticks just like me." ”

"Madam, how is it time to get to the fire?" Liu Mingru walked over and looked at the chicken that was simmering with a lot of medicinal herbs and asked.

Li said: "It's hard to say, I've always relied on feelings, and it's good to feel good." Mingru, just take a look at it with your heart. ”

How could she really teach Liu Mingru?

Liu Mingru was helpless, so he could only wait for the pot of chicken without daring to get distracted, and at first he would open the pot from time to time and test the softness of the chicken with chopsticks, but Li Shi frowned when he saw it and said: "Mingru, if you always open the lid like this, the aroma and medicinal effect will be dissipated, and the taste will be much inferior." Liu Mingru didn't dare to open it again. But he is not good at cooking, so Zuihou can only wait and wait, thinking that the meat will be stewed even worse.

"Are you alright?" Li didn't actually stay in the kitchen all the time to watch the pot of chicken, but Liu Mingru didn't dare to leave half a step. Other dishes were being cooked on the other stoves in the kitchen, and after a while, she felt that her whole body smelled of oily smoke, and her face was not refreshing to the touch. But when she thought that she could get Li Chengfeng's appreciation and heartbeat, she was so happy. Hearing Li's question at this time, she thought about it and felt that the time should come, so she nodded, and under Li's guidance, she sandwiched up half a chicken, carefully removed the chicken bones, and kept the crispy bones, cut them into small pieces, and kept them for later use.

"Brother Feng likes to eat skin, don't remove the skin. Add some shiitake mushrooms and fungus to chop the skin and meat, then add seasonings and stir, and add a little lotus stuffing. Li Shi did not slow down, and continued: "Then scald the lotus petals with hot water, and hurry up to wrap the meat while the petals are still fresh and hot, fix them with crispy bones, and cut off the excess petals. ”

Li Shi actually didn't say it carefully, such as how much mushroom fungus to add, what the seasoning is, what is the proportion of lotus stuffing, and what kind of shape to wrap into, she didn't say anything. But Liu Mingru, who was in a hurry, didn't think much about it, she even thought that this was an opportunity for Li to give her to perform, and these were naturally made by herself, and she felt that the taste was the best.

"Mingru, no problem, right?" Li asked again.

Liu Mingru nodded and said, "Yes, madam, Mingru can do it." ”

At this time, a very well-dressed grandmother happened to walk in, and when Li saw it, he raised his voice again: "Mingru, this dish is very special to Brother Feng, and it is not something that anyone can do, but you are really fine?" ”

Although Liu Mingru felt that it was a little strange for her to ask so cautiously, she was busy in her hands, and if she delayed, Wen Buke would change, so she nodded and responded: "This is natural." ”

The corners of Li's lips twitched, and his expression was very similar to Mo Zhijing.

"Then I'll take the lotus leaf chicken and send it to the old lady first, and when you're ready, send it to Bangyunju."

“haode。”

Li asked the maid to take her to make haode lotus leaf chicken and walked out of the door, pausing in front of the grandmother, "Mama Wan came to pick up the lotus leaf chicken in person again?" ”

Mama Wan said: "Exactly, don't you dare to make the third aunt too tired." As she spoke, she took the tray from the maid's hand herself, and Li went out of the big kitchen with her, heading towards the place of the family banquet.

"Third aunt and grandmother, is Miss Liu really full of heart?" On the way, Mama Wan couldn't help but ask Li in a low voice.

"No, Mama Shicai also heard it, I made everything clear, and she still insisted on doing it." The expression on Li's face at this time was very sad, helpless, and a little sad. Mama Wan had no choice but to sigh when she saw it, and she couldn't help but despise Liu Mingrulai in her heart.

Mo Zhijing and Li Chengfeng originally wanted to accompany Rao Xuekong, but Mrs. Li kept them by their side to ask, and their hearts had already flown to Rao Xuekong's side, but they didn't dare to show half a point on their faces, and chatted with the old lady.

Mo Zhihua pretended to be well-behaved on the old lady's knees, making the old lady smile. After the grandmother said that she was ready to start the banquet, the three of them hugged the old lady and went to Bangyunju.
