Chapter 123: A dish that can't be cooked
"This is the eldest lady of Anluhou Mansion, this is the second lady of Jing'anbo Mansion, and this is the ninth lady of Kui Guofu" Hu Yu is a very competent host, introducing the guests who barbecued meat around the stove for Shen Yiyi one by one.
Shen Yiyi saluted and smiled, she found that when Hu Yu introduced several young ladies from Kui Guofu, their eyes obviously stayed on her for a few more moments. Probably the legacy of the deity again, she remembered that Meng Zhi claimed to be a distant relative of Kui Guofu. However, she had already left the Shen family as planned and was ready to travel around the country, so she didn't care about these things.
Changxuan was bustling inside, and suddenly a high-pitched and shrill voice from the waiter came from outside: "Pass the emperor's edictββ"
The emperor's dictation? The women in the Xuan were surprised, got up one after another, and looked out.
Huang Futian walked into Xuanzhong quickly, and looked around: "Which one is Miss Shen?" β
It seems that she is the only one surnamed Shen here, and she ranks first, Shen Yiyi stood up: "I am." β
Huang Futian looked at her: "Miss Shen, the emperor ordered you to make a silver wire offering within a month." β
When Shen Yiyi heard this, he was simply clueless. Emperor? Who is the Emperor? Silver wire offering? What is a silver wire offering? Shen Yiyi was full of question marks.
Hu Qi was worried that she didn't know etiquette, so he hurriedly reminded her in a whisper: "Quickly receive the decree and thank you." β
Shen Yiyi had no choice but to suppress her doubts, knelt down, and received the emperor's message.
Huang Futian glanced at her sympathetically and turned to leave.
Shen Yiyi asked Hu Qi: "Miss Ten, how have I ever met the emperor, why do I have such an edict?" β
Hu Yu replied to her in a low voice: "The Zhu Jiulang you have just met is the emperor, but the emperor doesn't like anyone to expose his identity, so don't make a noise." β
Dare to love her inadvertently, has she witnessed the face of the sky? Shen Yiyi thanked Hu Qi, drove out of Changxuan, and caught up with Huang Futian: "Father-in-law, please stay!" β
Huang Futian originally sympathized with Shen Yiyi, and naturally stopped when he heard the words.
Shen Yiyi took out a silver ticket and handed it over: "It's hard for my father-in-law to run away." β
The eunuchs who rewarded the edict in the TV series were all generous, and she followed suit.
Huang Futian really took it generously and said, "Miss Shen is polite." β
Shen Yiyi asked, "Father-in-law, what is the silver wire offering?" I'm just a little learned, but I don't know. β
Huang Futian began to sympathize with her again: "The silver silk offering is a dish, what is it, you have to ask Cai Gongzi of the Hussar General's Mansion." β
Cai Li? Shen Yiyi was stunned: "Father-in-law, as far as I know, Cai Gongzi doesn't know how to cook, what is the relationship between him and this silver silk offering?" β
When asked, Huang Futian sighed for her: "The silver silk offering is a dish created by Cai Gongzi." β
Cai Li's self-created boxing method is almost the same, he will create his own dishes?? Don't just say it casually, make it up, right? Shen Yiyi's eyes became strange.
When Huang Futian saw her like this, he smiled embarrassedly.
Looks like she guessed right? Is the silver wire offering really a dish that Cai Li casually made up? This matter has to be put on hold, but it is simple, ask Cai Li, but he doesn't know where he is now, what should he do? Shen Yiyi felt a headache, and asked Huang Futian again: "Dare to ask my father-in-law, why did the emperor suddenly order me to make a silver wire offering?" β
What kind of mentality did the emperor, who is known as Zhu Jiulang, make her make a nonsensical dish!
Huang Futian said: "The emperor tasted the lily noodles you made, and felt that the taste was not good, and thought that you didn't understand the elegance of food at all, so"
Lily noodles are bitter, and many people can't get used to eating them, and it's not her fault, as for it? Shen Yiyi felt that she was really unreasonable.
Huang Futian cast a sympathetic look at her again and turned to leave.
Shen Yiyi stood in place, thinking about the "silver silk offering", and lost the mind to continue to barbecue meat around the stove.
At this time, Shen Yunyun came out with a little pepper.
Shen Yiyi asked Shen Yunyun: "What will happen if I can't make the silver wire offering that the emperor wants?" β
Shen Yunyun's face changed in fright: "Eldest sister, you can't make a silver thread offering, that's a protest!" In case it angers the emperor, don't talk about you, we will all lose our heads! β
The Shen family's head will fall off, but she is still young and can't give her life to an inexplicable dish.
Shen Yiyi got angry when she thought about it, and said to Little Pepper: "The whip with barbs, put it away for me!" β
Damn Cai Li, if she doesn't show up again, she will be killed by him!
The world is so big, and the deadline is only one month, she can't pin all her hopes on Cai Li, so let's think about something else first.
Shen Yiyi pondered and went back to Changxuan.
In the open house, the nobles are waiting for her, and it is an honor to be able to get the emperor's command.
Shen Yiyi dealt with them a few words and asked them: "Have you ever heard of the silver silk offering?" β
Hu Qi was surprised: "You don't know what the silver wire offering is?" We thought that the silver silk offering was your original dish, so the emperor ordered you to do it. β
The emperor actually ordered her to cook a dish that she didn't know about! The expressions of the nobles changed immediately, some sympathized, some gloated, and some turned their heads and left, as if they were too close to her, and they would be implicated.
Since they didn't know what the silver wire offering was, Shen Yiyi didn't want to stay for a long time, so she quickly got up and said goodbye to Hu Qi.
Hu Qi understood her mood at the moment, didn't keep her, and ordered the maid to send her back.
The news quickly reached Hu Shu, which made him stunned for a long time, and he coughed violently on the table, and he didn't get better after taking medicine.
As far as the chef is concerned, the lily noodles are just a number, why would the emperor taste them? He thought that the emperor would not care about such food at all.
This is good, his plan hurt Shen Yiyi.
Fortunately, the deadline is one month, and there may be a turnaround, as long as you find Cai Li, Hu Shu thought, calmed down, and pressed his chest hard, so that he coughed less.
Hu Shu's condition worsened, and Dou was so anxious that he rushed to his residence with several daughters-in-law and a group of maids and daughters-in-law on crutches.
Hu Shu, supported by the maid, got up to greet him, and his face looked as if he was terminally ill.
Dou called "Ziyuan", couldn't help crying, and hurriedly ordered someone to help him go to bed and lie down.
Hu Shu pressed his chest and said, "It's my unfilial piety that worries my grandmother, mother and aunts." β
"Family, what are you talking about?" Xu Shi said, sighing secretly, she had arranged for her sister-in-law to come to see each other today, but as soon as An Luhou Mansion heard that Hu Shu had not recovered from his illness for a long time, he was worried that he had a physical problem, so he pushed the matter off.
Gu wiped his tears and said, "Ziyuan, I heard that you haven't eaten well for a few days?" Your body is already weak and you refuse to eat, how can you get better? β
When Dou Shi heard this, he hurriedly said: "Ziyuan, what do you want to eat, tell your grandmother, and grandmother will order someone to do it." β
Hu Shu thought for a while and said slowly: "I tasted a bowl of lily noodles today, and it tasted good." β
