Chapter 415: Hiding Ingredients
Ye Jinyu did not rush to the dining room, but walked quickly to Ziruo's room,
She pushed open Ziruo's door hard,
In this not very big room, there are a lot of bamboo shoots and other ingredients piled up in the center of the ground.
When Ye Jinyu saw it, he couldn't help but feel angry, the food in this imperial dining room really looks like a food! Actually piled up the ingredients in his room, what a big official addiction must be? Even the ingredients have to be taken care of,
If it weren't for Cheng Yu to give himself a look, I'm really afraid that today's lunch would not be able to be made, as soon as the ninth prince asked, he said that he had no ingredients, and then looked for it in the dining room, but there were so many, at that time, who dared to testify to himself, and he didn't have to help Shangshi in her imperial dining room speak,
This Ziruo is really getting worse and worse, and from now on, you must guard against her.
Dong Yu saw such a pile of bamboo shoots on the ground, and was so shocked that he covered his mouth with his hand,
"Si Shan, it turns out that there are so many bamboo shoots here, so why does my aunt still say no, is she not willing to give it to us?"
Ye Jinyu didn't look up, picked out some good bamboo shoots in the ingredient pile, and took some other ingredients, saw that it was almost enough, and handed half of it to Dongyu,
"Don't worry so much, we don't have much time, grab the ingredients and hurry back to the small kitchen to make lunch for the Nine Princes."
Dongyu took it with both hands, as if holding some priceless treasure, and hugged the thing in his hand tightly,
"Si Shan, should we tell my aunt?"
Ye Jinyu got up and sighed,
"Don't tell her first, if she doesn't let us leave, and stops us for a while, he will definitely delay making lunch for the Nine Princes, he is hungry and comes back, and he can't eat and can't be in a hurry with us?"
Dongyu nodded,
"Si Shan is right, then let's go."
As soon as Dong Yu finished speaking, she pushed open Ziruo's door, looked left and right, and ran towards the outside of the courtyard like a smoke, Ye Jinyu also followed her, and walked quickly towards the small kitchen.
The little palace maid waiting in the small kitchen was already in a hurry, she had already lit the pot stove in the small kitchen, and she had already cleaned up and stopped, just waiting for Ye Jinyu to make lunch.
Ye Jinyu saw that she was clever and diligent, and she was very satisfied with the actions of a girl named Xiaohong here.
At noon today, the meal ordered by the Nine Princes is also the tip of the golden honeycomb bamboo shoots,
Fortunately, this meal is just for the umami of spring bamboo shoots, and there is no very complicated process.
Ye Jinyu poured two spoonfuls of chicken broth into a pot stove and let Dongyu boil,
I took Xiaohong's cleaned bamboo shoot tips and quickly repaired the shape, a total of ten, and put them on a clean plate for later use.
Ye Jinyu hurriedly added water to another pot, threw two salted duck eggs into it, and told Xiaohong to cook them.
At this time, the chicken soup was already boiling, Ye Jinyu poured the bamboo shoot tips into the chicken soup and stirred gently until the aroma of the chicken soup entered the bamboo shoot tips, then took out the bamboo shoot tips again and put them on another plate.
The salted duck eggs were already cooked, Ye Jinyu ordered Xiaohong to take out the duck eggs, peel off the yolk of the duck eggs, and mash them.
Ye Jinyu brought a clean small basin and grabbed a handful of flour, sugar, and lard, and mashed duck egg yolk
Pour in a little chicken broth and tann it into a dough that divides into 10 small doughs
Turn around and wrap the tips of the cooled bamboo shoots in small dough,
The size of the ten bamboo shoots is almost the same,
Ye Jinyu poured the soybean oil into the pot that Dongyu washed again,
Put ten bamboo shoots into the hot oil pot one by one, the oil pot is constantly turning flowers, and the fresh fragrance of the bamboo shoots will waft out after a while.
It wasn't until the tips of the bamboo shoots looked scorched on the outside and tender on the inside that Ye Jinyu fished them out one by one, drained the oil, put them on the plate, and decorated the edge of the plate with vegetable leaves, and a begonia flower picked in the yard.
Dong Yu eagerly came up and looked at the ten bamboo shoots like a gluttonous cat,
"It's really like a honeycomb, no wonder it's called that, if only I could make something like this."
Ye Jinyu encouraged:
"I'll never learn, as long as you study hard, one day you can do it."
Dongyu was happy and nodded vigorously,
Just got it done, and there was already a footstep of my father-in-law outside the door,
Ye Jinyu hurriedly took out the pea yellow made in the morning, put it on the plate, and put it in the tray with the tips of the golden honeycomb bamboo shoots.
Ye Jinyu breathed a sigh of relief, and finally finished the meal and sent it over, thank God.
Ye Jinyu didn't know that the big trouble hadn't come yet, and he was about to come to the door. Love Me eBook
Just waited for the ninth prince to feedback the information of lunch, saying that it was not bad, Ye Jinyu breathed a sigh of relief again, fortunately, the ninth prince was going to leave the palace sooner or later, so he was satisfied with the meal, Ye Jinyu was one step closer to sending him away perfectly, the two little palace maids had some lunch, and began to sprinkle and clean the small kitchen,
Ye Jinyu was also ready to go to the small garden to find Li Sui to listen to her "Palace Recipes", and today she specially changed into a set of plain skirts, and cleaned up her hair, lest that guy dislike herself again,
Ye Jinyu was about to leave, but saw Cheng Yu coming in a hurry,
"Ye Jinyu, it's not good, Aunt Ziruo returned to the room after making lunch, and saw messy ingredients all over the floor, saying that it was a thief in the room, and she shouted in the imperial dining room for half an hour, and interrogated us up and down, trying to find out who stole the bamboo shoots and other ingredients in her room, everyone was scared to death, and the two new little palace maids were scared to cry."
Ye Jinyu frowned,
"If Ziruo is so excited, can't she guess that I took those ingredients? Isn't she killing chickens for monkeys? How? Does she still want to summon me back to the imperial dining room for a good lesson? ”
Cheng Yu nodded vigorously, he was already anxious,
"Yes, Aunt Ziruo originally wanted to send someone else to inform you to go to the imperial dining room, but I was afraid that you wouldn't know the ins and outs of the matter, and then have unnecessary conflicts with the people who came to you, and suffer the losses that you shouldn't have suffered, so I took the initiative to ask Aunt Ziruo to come to you,"
"I want to tell you about this matter first, you can have a deal with it yourself, if she must say that it was the ingredients you stole it, you might as well admit it directly, so as not to make things bigger and bigger,"
"Ye Jinyu, otherwise, you can also go to your prince friend and ask him to help you think about it, see if there is any good way, and find someone to intercede. I went to Aunt Ziruo to talk back, and she said that you don't know where you went. ”
Cheng Yu was really worried about what would happen to Ye Jinyu, it seemed that she had already helped Ye Jinyu think of all the methods she could think of on the way here, and before Ye Jinyu could say anything, she told all the methods that Ye Jinyu should be able to use.
Ye Jinyu looked at her gratefully,
"Cheng Yu, don't worry, it's okay, let's go, you take me to the imperial dining room, I want to see which one Ziruo is going to sing today."
When Dong Yu heard Cheng Yu's words, her face turned white with fright, Aunt Ziruo is the biggest official in the imperial dining room, and if she is angry, the consequences will definitely be very serious.
If only they could persuade Zhou Sishan at that time, they had informed Aunt Ziruo, then they would not have made such a big mess.
When he first entered the palace, his father-in-law made the rules of the palace clear, stealing is a major crime in the palace, and the masters of the palace are the most taboo about these people whose hands and feet are not clean, and the lightest punishment is also fifty boards, and the heaviest one is directly sent to the Internal Affairs Office and beheaded.
It's a big trouble now,
"Si Shan, I'm going with you to steal the meal ingredients, do I want to go with you later?" Ye Jinyu saw that Dongyu's face turned pale with fright, and he deliberately smiled lightly with her. You don't have to go, just keep watch here, prepare the ingredients for dinner with Xiaohong, and wait for me to come back. ”
Although Ye Jinyu said so, in fact, she didn't know what that Ziruo could do, but in order to comfort this poor little girl, she could only say this.
When he arrived at the imperial dining room, Ziruo sat at the table with one arm on the table, waiting for Ye Jinyu to come, and the other palace maids and chefs in the imperial dining room all lowered their heads and stood nervously opposite Ziruo, and they didn't dare to come out.
Ziruo saw Ye Jinyu walk in, raised her eyes and glanced at it,
"Ye Jinyu, are you guilty?"
As soon as Ye Jinyu saw it, this formation was prepared for herself, and she didn't feel annoyed, this Ziruo is still not a person?
"Auntie, what is my sin, if you don't say it, I don't know, so, I don't know."
Ziruo frowned slightly, this is not unexpected, if Ye Jinyu really recruited his own sin, then it would not be Ye Jinyu,
"Isn't it a sin for you to run into my room and steal the ingredients while I'm away?"
Ye Jinyu's eyes widened,
"Auntie, I went to your house and stole the ingredients? This is the Imperial Dining Room in the Imperial Palace, and even your room is the Imperial Dining Room. I'm stealing from you? As the chef of the imperial dining room, I went to the imperial dining room and took the ingredients for my lunch meal, who dares to say that I stole it? I'm rushing what I'm supposed to do, and I didn't take it for myself or sell it to others, so why did I steal it when I got to my aunt? ”
Ziruo saw that Ye Jinyu really wouldn't admit his guilt honestly, so he stood up angrily,
"Isn't it stealing when you come to my room and take the contents of my room without my permission?"
Ye Jinyu smiled lightly, "Really? Then please aunt tell me, what did I get in your room? ”
Ziruo pointed to a pile of ingredients on the ground, "You came to my room without permission and took away a lot of bamboo shoots and other ingredients. ”
Ye Jinyu grinned at everyone,
"Did you hear that? My aunt said I took the bamboo shoots and other ingredients,"
She would turn around again and stare at Ziruo, "Auntie, didn't you say at lunch that there were no bamboo shoots in the imperial dining room at all?" Why are there so many more all of a sudden? Did it grow in your room, or are you lying?! ”
Ziruo was suddenly so angry that her face turned white for a while, and she also felt embarrassed.
"Ye Jinyu, don't quibble, I'll go to the Internal Affairs Office now, and let the people from the Internal Affairs Office deal with you!"
Ye Jinyu glanced at her lightly and said contemptuously:
"Okay, I'd like to see if there's justice in this imperial dining room!"
Cheng Yu stood aside and was just anxious, she couldn't help anything, she could only see this Ye Jinyu and Ziruo just go down like this, she kept signaling Ye Jinyu not to say any more, but Ye Jinyu didn't let a word, and didn't want to say a word.
Then, Ziruo left in a hurry and went to the Internal Affairs Office to find someone.
In the imperial dining room, the palace ladies whispered,
