Chapter 509: Eat Fish Tonight
Pietran decided to go with Princess Sophia, not because he had anything wrong with the princess, but because the princess was protected by five powerful knights, so that he felt a little more at ease.
It's just that the horses in the convoy have consumed a lot of physical strength just now, and they have to let the horses rest until tomorrow morning if they want to go on the road.
Sofia decided to stay here overnight and then hit the road with the convoy tomorrow.
The chief knight in charge of protecting Sophia was suddenly anxious, and he and Sophia argued about it for a while, but they were defeated.
The princess naturally traveled in large numbers, even if it was a light car, in addition to the carriage that Sophia was riding, there was also a servant's cart and two supply carts.
Since the princess said she was going to stay here for one night, the big tent was to be erected.
And Charles at this time...... He was sitting on the bridge fishing.
His backpack is stocked with line, hooks and bait, so he doesn't need a rod and just puts the hook and bait in the middle of the river.
Ellie, Biley, and Healy are also a little bored, and the three of them watch Charles fish on the bridge.
At this time, Bili asked Charles, "Charles, who is Maria, the princess will actually stop for her." ”
Charles said casually, "You ask her, she used to be the saint of the Temple of Music." ”
Bili was stunned for half a minute, then exclaimed in surprise, "She's that Maria-sama?"
At this time, a fish was hooked, and Charles was struggling to pull the fish up, so he only replied, "It's her." ”
This time, Charles caught a half-meter-long fish that looked like a carp, and the fish had a lot of strength and kept struggling.
However, he was prepared, he held the fishing line in one hand, picked up the stone prepared on the side with the other and threw it at the fish's head, and then the fish was knocked unconscious.
After the stunned fish was pulled up, Charles left it in the basket that had been used as a debris next to him, and then continued to put the bait and hook it.
Billy continued to ask questions about Maria, and Charles only said that the two of them happened to meet at the Adventurers' Guild.
When the second fish was caught, Sophia and Maria came to the bridge and walked towards Charles, while Lord Pietran followed Princess Sophia like a bodyguard, which made the princess's chief knight a little speechless.
Then again, with Pietrana's size, it's great to be a bodyguard to block a gun.
Sophia didn't feel much for Charles, the person who stared at her face as soon as they met, and belonged to the type that was automatically ignored.
It's just that before she left, a village brought a bear that was killed by Charles, and the bear's death was exactly the same as the black bear that was hunted back by Charles a few days ago, and then Charles's affair was released.
When Sophia and Maria were talking about it, Maria told her that it was Charles, who killed the bear, which made her a little curious.
It's just that the second meeting between the two is not very pleasant, Sophia doesn't care about that Charles staring at her face, she is used to being so cute and looked at like this, but Charles stared at the neckline below her neck this time, which made her a little unbearable.
The developing little girl is still very sensitive to some things.
Fortunately, Charles didn't stare at her for long, and turned his attention back to the fish before Sophia got angry.
Sophia walked up behind Charles, and after saluting Billie and the others, she asked Charles, who was lifting the fish, "Are you the Charles who killed the bear while eating hot pot and singing?"
Charles said, "It's not me who sings, it's Sister Maria." ”
Sophia asked again, "I heard that the hot pot you made is delicious, can you make it for me today?"
Charles replied, "Then you have to have a wild boar and lemons, and preferably a pineapple." ”
Wild boars are hopeless, this is the territory of wolves, and there will not be too many wild boars.
Then Sophia set her eyes on the fish in the basket.
All Charles could say was, "We're going to eat fish tonight." ”
Sophia thought for a moment and said, "Then make me one too." ”
Charles didn't agree, but said, "I'll teach your maid to do it." ”
He knows some about the rules of the royal family, and the chief knight of Her Royal Highness the princess will definitely not be willing to let him touch the princess's food, so it is better to demonstrate to the princess's maid on the side, and then the maid will cook it for the princess.
Sophia's interest in Charles ended there, and Charles was happy to fish next without anyone disturbing him.
On the contrary, it was the chief knight who was a little uneasy about Charles's side, and he sent a knight to keep an eye on Charles, for fear that he would do something on the fish.
Seeing this, Charles simply carried the basket full of fish back at the last moment.
In charge of Sophia's diet is a maid big sister, who tells Charles that the princess has ordered the use of the kitchenware and condiments they have brought with them.
At this moment, Charles was stunned by the kitchen utensils and various spices in the supply car of Her Royal Highness the Princess, and there was even ketchup in the car, not to mention the big jar of grease, ginger and garlic, and other spices sold at high prices in recent years, and even a small bag of the legendary "Victoria's Thirteen Spices".
I really don't know if the ancestor was beaten up by Aunt Victoria when he was first named.
To the relief of the maid big sister, Charles didn't use those expensive spices.
Charles chose a fish that was not very big, he cleaned the fish and chopped the head and tail of the fish, and let Ellie, who came to steal it, clean it up and fry it with the ginger shreds, and stew it together when Bili came back from picking mushrooms.
Then he removed the bone spurs from the fish, laid the skin side down flat enough to make a cross knife on it, and reminded the maid sister not to cut the skin of the fish, and then he coated the fish in starch and fried it in a pan until it was golden brown.
After putting the fried fish on the plate, he began to mix tomato paste, water, sugar, vinegar, wine, refined salt and water starch together, and then stir-fried the garlic rice made by Healy in the pan, and then boiled the seasoning he had just made into a thick sauce, and finally poured it on the fish.
In this way, a fish steak made with the squirrel fish method is ready.
Charles said to the maid's eldest sister, "Taste it and see if it suits the princess's taste." ”
The maid tasted a small piece with a fork and said with great satisfaction, "The taste and texture are good, and Her Royal Highness the princess likes such sweet and sour tastes." ”
Then she picked up another chunk of the fish, and beckoned to the knight, who had been watching.
The knight smiled and walked to the side of the maid's sister, and then opened his mouth to take the fish and meat fed by the maid's sister, and it seemed that both of them were very skilled.
As night fell, Princess Sophia's tent was filled with laughter, and Charles and Billie ate squirrel fish steaks by the carriage, while the coachmen could only eat simply grilled fish.
Bili was stunned for a moment with a piece of fish, and then Healy, who was sitting next to her, suddenly said, "Miss, do you want to learn from that maid, feed Charles?"
Charles, who was drinking fish head mushroom soup, was immediately choked.
Bili's face immediately turned red, and she immediately ate the fish in her hand while glaring at Healy fiercely.
Charles finished his dinner quickly, then ran away.
