Chapter 94

It took a little time for the sago to boil, Xiangru let the little eunuch watch the heat, she took a few sweet potatoes, washed and peeled them and cut them into small pieces, steamed them in the upper drawer and then crushed them with a spoon while they were hot, and then added an appropriate amount of glutinous rice flour to 'knead' into a ball and then divided into several portions for later use.

After preparing the dough, Xiangru brought the banana again, peeled it and cut it into small round slices, the amount was equal to the dough, wrapped the banana slices into the dough piece by piece and pressed them into a round cake shape by hand, and then fried them in the pan until golden brown on both sides, and the banana sweet potato cake was done. When the banana is heated, it becomes sticky, with the taste of sweet potato, and the sweet aroma is slightly sour.

When arranging the plate, Xiangru only loaded six, and served a small plate of honey and a small plate of sugar osmanthus 'flowers', and the rest of the banana and sweet potato cakes were actively distributed to the cooks, and a few nice words were said on their lips, thanking them for letting her use the kitchen.

Eating people with soft mouths, the cooks immediately became polite to Xiangru, and all kinds of good words were thrown out with a basket, and the kitchen workers took the initiative to help Xiangru put the dim sum into the food box.

Xiangru sent the rest of the girl to send the snacks back while they were hot, turned around and were busy processing the fruit again, peeling and dicing the fruit, and preparing to make the cow's milk' fruit sago 'dew' for a while.

Busy and busy, Xiangru suddenly remembered something, and she was so shocked that she almost cut her hand.

Cow's 'milk' can't be eaten with sour 'sex' fruits, and the orange juice steamed eggs in front are cow's 'milk' and 'jade' rice cakes, and the little princess has weak digestion, but don't eat it and have a stomachache.

Xiangru was anxious and blamed herself for being so careless, but now there was no one around who could run 'errands' to deliver the letter, so she could only pray that the little princess and Concubine De did not eat those two foods at the same time.

Xiangru, who was panicked, anxiously finished 'getting' the fruit cow 'milk' sago 'dew' and honey bean cow's milk 'sago' 'dew', and hurriedly left with the food box.

When I came to the palace 'door', I bumped into the girl in the concubine's room and hurriedly ran out, saw Xiangru coming back, smiled from ear to ear, and took the food box in Xiangru's hand, while urging Xiangru to hurry into the house, the princess liked the snacks she made, and the mother was happy.

It is naturally a good thing that the little princess has an appetite, but at this moment Xiangru really can't laugh, but this girl is not waiting in the house, and I don't know what the little princess has eaten, only that the princess and the mother are happy.

Xiangru followed the girl into the front hall, and immediately someone stepped forward to take the food box, took out the two large bowls of sago 'dew' inside and sent them to the warm pavilion, and Xiangru first sorted out her appearance in the hall before coming to the warm pavilion to report and ask for a meeting. As soon as she reported her name, the soft curtain of the warm pavilion was lifted from the inside, and Qing'er ran out excitedly, leading Xiangru in both hands, "Come in, we are talking about you, the princess especially likes the milk and jade rice cakes you make, with this, I don't want anything else, I am eating happily at this time." ”

While speaking, Xiangru had already entered the house and stood in front of the kang, following Qing'er's words, the fifth princess, who had freshened up and changed her clothes, was lying on the kang table, the plate was placed in front of her, and she was eating very seriously, and the orange custard sent back first was only eaten by De Concubine, and the other steamed egg was only eaten and put aside, and the banana sweet potato cake was still the same.

It seems that the little princess doesn't like the sour taste, which makes Xiangru breathe a sigh of relief.

"The maid please Niang Niang An, please the princess Ann, Niang Niang Wan'an, Princess Wan'an." After reading the princess, Xiangru didn't forget to salute.

"Flat." Concubine De smiled at the corner of her mouth, put down the spoon and looked at Xiangru appreciatively, "You deserve to be excellent, you are good at learning, and you have better cooking work, I heard that you originally came from the kitchen?" ”

"Back to the mother's words, the maid is from the kitchen, and the master can't bear to see the maid 'waste' a lot of cooking work, just a rare opportunity, so he let the maid learn food medicine." Xiangru replied respectfully.

"Well, it's still your master who has the foresight, you are good at food medicine, you are more clever, and you are reliable. Qing'er, tip. ”

Qing'er immediately stepped forward and stuffed a big red reward into Xiangru's hand.

"The maid didn't dare to be rewarded, the princess cried before, and the maid was rude in order to coax the princess, and the maid didn't blame it was already the blessing of the maid, and the maid didn't dare to accept it." Xiangru pushed the reward back into Qing'er's hand.

"Hey, you are also in a hurry, the princess is young and ignorant, so naturally she can't be the same as ***, and it is reasonable to use some special means when necessary. This palace doesn't mean to hate you at all, if it weren't for your wit, the princess would probably have to cry for a while, this reward is what you deserve, take it. ”

"Take it, I've worked hard for you today." Qing'er stuffed the reward back into Xiangru's hand and said with a smile.

"The maid was ashamed and didn't dare to be rewarded by the mother. Just because the book says that cow's 'milk' should not be eaten with sour 'sex' foods such as oranges and oranges, otherwise it is easy to cause abdominal pain. The maid can rarely eat cow's milk', and forgot about it for a while, and the mother has eaten fresh orange steamed eggs at the moment, and she will not eat food containing cow's 'milk' for half an hour. It's the maid's negligence, please punish the mother. ”

"Oh? And this taboo? You don't know. Fortunately, the princess only ate a bite of steamed eggs, so she didn't want it because she didn't think it tasted sour, and patronized the cake. But it's not all your fault, who told you that you don't have cow's milk in your kitchen on weekdays? Well, this palace has always had clear rewards and punishments, and you have merit in today's events, and you should still be rewarded. ”

"Yes, take it, I'm tired of holding it. It can be seen that you are a kind-hearted person, otherwise if you really want to eat with abdominal pain, you can rely on the kitchen to get rid of you, but you don't, but bravely admit that it was your own negligence, and the mother will not punish you for this. "Qing'er is the girl brought by Concubine De's mother's family, and she understands the master's 'sexuality'.

"Niangniang is really a bodhisattva, and having a master like Niangniang is a blessing for us to be subordinates." Xiangru took out a handkerchief and made a moving tear.

"Okay, okay, take it, ah~" Qing'er stuffed the reward seal into Xiangru's hand again, patted her shoulder, and stood beside Concubine De.

"Slave thank you for the mother's reward, thank the princess for the reward." Speaking of this, the foreshadowing has been done enough, Xiangru held the reward seal with both hands with a feeling of 'excitement', and then put it into her arms with peace of mind, she has worked hard enough this afternoon.

"Lady Xie." The fifth princess was temporarily tired of eating, and during the intermission, she pushed the plate away, took a spoonful and scooped up the fruit in the fruit sago 'dew' to eat, and talked to Xiangru by the way.

"The servant is here, what does Your Highness command?"

"How can you make so many novel dim sum, but the ingredients used are all ordinary things, but Hongu has never eaten them."

"Your Royal Highness is wrong, today's snacks are all made by the maid there when he was studying in the Tai Hospital, and the maid was curious and asked for the recipe, but unfortunately there was no cow' milk in the kitchen of the 'female' medical hall, so I occasionally found an opportunity to make it. The cooking skills are rusty, and His Royal Highness does not blame him. Xiangru lowered her head and looked respectfully.

"You don't even have cow's milk in that kitchen?" The little princess was amazed.

"Back to His Royal Highness, the cow's 'milk' originally came from the eating habits of herdsmen and overseas people. It is not the daily food of the people in the Central Plains, and the kitchen of the 'female' hospital naturally does not have it, only the kitchen of the Tai Hospital has a few cans of fresh 'milk' used to make snacks a month, and occasionally some leftover maids are begged to bring back to the 'female' medical hall and learn to make and eat. "Around the topic of cow's milk', the more Xiangru talks, the more pitiful it becomes.

"Oh, if it were other people, this palace would think she was too greedy, but you are a food doctor, is it your duty to understand all kinds of food?"

"Back to His Highness, His Highness is right, this is exactly the duty of a food doctor, if the food doctor does not understand food, how can he prescribe a proper diet for the patient."

"Do you want to know all the food in the world?"

"Your Highness, as a food doctor's duty, it is the best to be able to reach this level, but the world is so big, the best food doctor can't really know everything, it is great to be able to thoroughly study the ingredients produced in your own location, and you can only read more books."

"According to what you say, you are in the palace now, according to your duty, should you 'figure out' all the commonly used ingredients in the palace?" The little princess's eyes were shining, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

"Back to His Royal Highness, it stands to reason that it should be, but the status of the servant is limited, so ......" Xiangru handled it carefully, and felt that this little princess was strange and smart, and knew how to talk around the corner, and the royal education was really good.

"Aunt Qing." The little princess called Qing'er again.

"The servant is here, what does Your Highness command?"

"How much milk is there for this month?"

"Your Highness, the cow's 'milk' has been eaten as usual until the end of the month."

"Next time the kitchen will come to the cow's milk', half of it will be given to Mrs. He, and she will be asked to think more about the dim sum made of the cow's milk', I heard that the kitchen is all learned by the chef of the mission who followed the tribute pilgrimage, it is said to be the original 'milk' food, and you can smell the strong 'milk' smell through the 'door' of the room, I don't like it, these are just right." The little princess put down the spoon and grabbed another pancake and took a bite, squinting her eyes and smiling sweetly, "Well done will be rewarded." ”

"Your Highness must not, how can a servant take His Highness's share!" Xiangru pretended to be panicked.

"Needless to say." The little princess ran out of patience and plunged back into the snack.

"Doctor He, you just said that the duty of a food doctor is to understand all kinds of food, with your poor kitchen, how can you do your duty? Since the princess has commanded it, you can do it. "Concubine De took over the conversation, the 'girl' returned to normal, and the mother's smile was so strong that she 'exposed' eight teeth.

"Yes, sis. Servant Princess Xie Niangniang. Xiangru bowed, straightened up and was about to say goodbye, when there was a sound of a girl reporting outside.

"Report to the mother, the queen sent someone to inquire about the princess's situation."

"Got it, you go down." Qing'er walked to the curtain and sent the people away, and turned her face to show a worried face.

"Oops, the queen already knows about the princess's illness, who has told the queen so much." De Concubine's face was full of displeasure.

"It's no secret that the princess has a bad appetite, the queen knows that it will be sooner or later, and the mother should think about how to send the conversation over first." Qing'er comforted.

"Niangniang, can you listen to the servant?" Xiangru was anxious to go back to rest, thinking that she would quickly solve the current matter and leave, so she offered to help.

"If Doctor He has something to say, you might as well say it directly."

"Back to the mother's words, the princess can be big or small, we might as well just turn it into a small thing, we know that it is a quarrel between children, but outsiders don't know. Niangniang said that during the Chinese New Year, the princess went around with Niangniang to pay New Year's greetings, ate all kinds of delicacies, children have weak stomachs, and the restraint is not good, which spoils the appetite, and the princess is fine these days. By the way, simply call the messenger in, let her see how happy the princess is eating now, and the messenger will return to the queen, and the queen can also 'confess' to the emperor and the queen mother. ”

"Dr. He is right, this is really the best of both worlds. Qing'er, go and invite people in. ”

Qing'er lifted the curtain and went out, and in a moment she brought a girl in, after the girl saluted with Concubine De and the princess, Concubine De learned what Xiangru had just taught, and the girl saw that the princess was indeed eating happily, and she didn't look sick at all, so she believed Concubine De's words, and said goodbye with a smile and went back to her life.

Sending off the queen's messenger, Xiangru also said goodbye at the right time, and Concubine De praised a few more words, and gave her some novel fruits, so she ordered the car to send Xiangru back.

Before leaving, the little princess did not forget to tell her again, once Xiangru can make a new cow's milk' snack, she must report it as soon as possible, so that she can make one in the kitchen for herself.

Xiangru Man agreed, took his things and bowed out

Entering the 'Door'
