Chapter 217: Learning to Cook
The palace is built on the mountain, magnificent and magnificent.
Xiuyue walked behind Wei Qiang in a proper manner, keeping a distance not far or close.
Dou Ren carried the fish and nodded secretly.
This cook is much more sensible than the maid next to Miss Luo, so it can be seen that she hasn't had time to learn badly.
Thinking about the torment he suffered when he went to Miss Luo with His Royal Highness in the past few days, Dou Ren had a little desire to win over Xiuyue.
With this cook's skills, it is not an exaggeration to enter the palace as an imperial chef, and if you have a good relationship, you may be able to eat the dishes she makes.
The master sat and he stood, and the master ate and watched him, he didn't think it was like it before, but now he feels that it is too difficult.
As he was thinking, he tripped over a stone under his feet, and the fish in his hand flew out.
Xiuyue happened to walk on one side, and her hand quickly caught the fish.
The fish that had escaped consciously shook its tail a few times, splashing her with water droplets.
"I'm sorry." Dou Ren lost his name.
It doesn't matter if anything else, if the fish falls to the ground, then he's in trouble.
This is what His Royal Highness and Yu Xuan's waiter want to eat, so he personally carried it.
Wei Qiang turned around when he heard the movement, looked at the fish struggling in Xiuyue's hands, and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?" ”
"Back to Your Highness, just now this fish broke free from the slave's hand, but fortunately the cook caught it......"
Wei Qiang looked at Xiuyue carefully.
There was a scar on the woman's face that obscured her appearance, and she looked forty miles away.
Miss Luo's cook is really ugly.
This is the first time Wei Qiang has noticed Xiuyue.
Although the chef of a wine shop is already very famous, in the eyes of these people, it is Miss Luo's chef who is famous, not the chef herself.
Who cares what a cook looks like?
Perhaps only this chef who can make supreme deliciousness is no longer Miss Luo's cook, and only has the value that people value.
Because then you can take the cook for your own use.
"I remember that Miss Luo called you Xiugu." Wei Qiang looked at it and opened his mouth.
Xiuyue handed the bouncing fish back to Dou Ren and replied "yes" respectfully.
"I heard that you were brought back from the south by Miss Luo?" Wei Qiang walked forward and asked casually.
"Yes."
Wei Qiang shook his head slightly and didn't ask any more.
It is rare for Miss Luo to have someone who cherishes ink like gold, and there is no way for people to chat.
Xiuyue secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She is not smart enough to cope with this, so she should talk less, lest she say too much and lose.
But once, she was the most laughing of the four.
Xiuyue's eyes flashed gloomily, thinking about the morning flowers she was about to see, and her heartstrings tightened again.
Soon the group passed through the vermilion palace wall and stopped at a palace courtyard.
"Aunt Xiu, please come with us."
Xiuyue bent her knees slightly to Wei Qiang and went with Dou Ren.
Wei Qiang walked up the stone steps quickly and held Chaohua's hand: "Why are you outside?" ”
"Come out and breathe." Chaohua smiled gently, "The concubine looked at the person who followed behind Dou Gonggong and looked a little like Miss Luo's cook. ”
Wei Qiang smiled: "It's that cook." ”
Chaohua's eyes widened slightly, revealing surprise: "Why did Your Highness bring Miss Luo's cook?" ”
"Originally, I asked her to make a sour soup fish brain noodles, but Miss Luo said that she was willing to borrow the cook to teach your palace maid this dish. I thought it would be so good, and I brought people in. ”
"I see, let His Highness bother." Chaohua showed a touched look, but the hand in the sleeve shook it vigorously.
Miss Luo offered to send Xiuyue over, was it a coincidence, or did she intend to cooperate?
Wei Qiang took Chaohua's hand and walked down the stone steps and paced slowly in the courtyard.
It will be late, and the sunset will spread all over the sky, covering the flowers and trees in the courtyard with a deep and shallow red veil.
Wei Qiang enjoyed the pleasantness of the evening and said with a smile: "What's the trouble, I also like to eat fish brain noodles in sour soup." ”
Chaohua thought for a while and said, "Then let Qing'er learn from the cook." Qing'er is careful and has always served her concubines thoughtfully. ”
Wei Qiang said disapprerovantly: "You look at these." ”
Chaohua turned his head sideways and shouted, "Qing'er." ”
Qing'er, who had been following her, stepped forward: "Please choose the waiter to order." ”
"Go and learn from Miss Luo's cook."
"The slave obeys."
Wei Qiang walked with Chaohua for a while, and then said, "I'll go to bathe and change clothes first." ”
I have sweated from hunting during the day, and I naturally have to wash it well when I come back.
"The concubine will serve His Highness to bathe."
"No need, just wait for me to eat together." Wei Qiang declined Chaohua's proposal and strode towards the bathhouse.
Chaohua calmly watched the figure disappear from sight, and her heart was relieved.
After waiting for so long, I finally waited for the opportunity to meet Xiuyue alone.
Chaohua walked towards the dining room without hurrying.
Although the palace is not as good as the palace, it should not be less, such as the dining room of the exclusive East Palace.
"Waiter." Dou Ren, who was standing outside the dining room, saluted the flowers.
Chaohua nodded slightly and asked, "Is Qing'er learning to cook from Miss Luo's cook?" ”
"Exactly."
Towards the flowers, he walked inward.
"Elect the waiter, you-" Seeing this, Dou Ren couldn't help but shout.
Chaohua said lightly: "I'm a little curious, go in and take a look." ”
"The dining room is full of oil smoke, so don't go in if you choose a waiter." Dou Ren persuaded.
Chaohua glanced at him and frowned slightly: "I'm curious to take a look, do you want Father-in-law Dou's permission?" ”
Dou Ren hurriedly said: "The servant has tormented the slave maid." The slave and maid will lead you in. ”
A selection of servants is nothing, but who let the jade selection of servants be the person on the tip of His Royal Highness's heart.
Dou Ren honestly accompanied Chaohua into the dining room.
The dining room is very spacious, with several rooms.
Dou Ren didn't see Xiuyue at a glance, and asked an imperial chef who was busy: "Where is the chef invited?" ”
The imperial chef was obviously a little dissatisfied, and replied with annoyance: "The cook lady said that she came to teach a dish on the order of the master, and she could only pass it on to one person, and she went to the innermost room with the palace maid who came to learn to cook. ”
Dou Ren looked at Chaohua.
Chaohua said lightly: "In this case, then Father-in-law Dou will wait here, I will go in and take a look and come out." ”
What else can Dou Ren say, he can only wait honestly.
There was a sudden sound inside, followed by the palace maid's plea.
"Choosing a servant to forgive sins, it's all a slave and a maid who is clumsy—"
Dou Ren rushed in without waiting to finish listening, taken aback by the scene in front of him.
I saw Qing'er kneeling on the ground, a kitchen knife fell to her hand, and her fingers were dripping with blood.
"What, what does that mean?" Dou Ren couldn't help but ask.
Qing'er's face was full of shame: "The slave maid is stupid and accidentally cut her hand......"
If you cut your hand, you naturally can't learn.
Chaohua sighed: "That's it, I'll learn this dish from the cook." ”
Dou Ren subconsciously blocked: "The status of the servant is noble, how can you learn this-"
Chaohua glanced at him and said with a smile: "I have learned, I can make it for His Highness to eat." ”
She seemed to react suddenly, and her tone became softer and softer: "I should have come to learn to live up to His Highness's wishes." Father-in-law Dou took Qing'er out. ”
