Chapter 7: Thoughts

If Gonggong Xue hadn't heard about Shen Jinyan from the eldest princess's mansion, he would have really been deceived by Jinyan's words.

Although Jinhiko's words are a bit strong, they can't be said to be unreasonable.

Especially with her chest straight, her face is straightforward, and she is righteous, you really can't refute her.

After all, if someone really wants to be unfavorable to the Queen Mother, it is really possible.

The palace is deceitful, and Gonggong Xue has seen a lot, so he doesn't know where it will be.

Even if it's him, there's no guarantee.

But the problem is that Shen Jinyan's father-in-law Xue is too clear, where would he not know, this product is purely an excuse to eat when he is hungry and then find it!!

Fortunately, she was ordered by the eldest princess, otherwise, it would not be appropriate for such a child who can eat to be sent to any master.

Originally, the others were very happy with Jinhiko's choice.

If Jin Yan does not conform to Xue Gong's public opinion, then, after being eliminated, their selection rate will be much higher.

But now......

Some of the girls turned their minds away.

Since that Shen Jinyan's backer is too strong, and the nonsense can still continue, then he can only eliminate others!!

The next competition is a written test and a practical operation.

These two things are much simpler for Jinhiko.

When Shen San was the county magistrate in Huiji County, including going to Guangzhou before, and now going to Shandong as a Daotai, she was collecting some delicacies that she was interested in.

also collected Shen San, Yang's, and his favorite delicacies and compiled them into a book.

When my sister-in-law entered the door before, I gave it to my sister-in-law as a meeting gift.

Compared with the famous calligraphy and painting that my sister Jinyuan gave to my sister-in-law, it is indeed a big difference in money.

However, when a girl marries into a man's family, what she needs most is not gold and silver, but how to please her mother-in-law and sisters-in-law.

Jinyan's recipe is naturally timely rain for her sister-in-law.

Originally, the two knew each other, and with the recipe, the relationship between the two sisters-in-law was naturally better.

When Jin Yan heard what Xue Gonggong said about the written test, he was thinking, couldn't it be that he wrote some specialty dishes, and he would have to demonstrate it himself when the time came, right?

She has been in the kitchen for several years, but what she really does is pasta.

When everything needs to use knives and open oil ducts, such a "high-risk" thing, Li's mother and a few girls around her will try their best to discourage it.

So she thought about it for a while, and then thought of three dim sums that she liked more and that were not particularly difficult to operate.

One is a pork cake with dried vegetables.

This small baked cake is the favorite supper of the two brothers and sisters.

When it's hot, the aroma fills the air, and as soon as you bite into it, the gravy of the dried vegetables wrapped in pork filling bursts out.

After eating it once, Jinhiko felt that he could eat this small baked cake in the same way as eating xiaolong.

First take a small bite, then blow into the mouth for a while, then suck the juice, and finally start to eat the small baked cake.

As for the small baked cakes when they are cold, they also have a unique flavor, especially crispy, a bit like potato chips.

Xifu can be said to have prepared this as a snack and a supper all year round.

Therefore, if you want to say that Jinhiko is the best at what to do, it is this little baked cake, which makes a hundred or dozens of them every time, and it belongs to the ones that can be dried with their eyes closed.

As for the other two, I think it should be done lightly.

Whether it is the current saint or the queen mother, they are not young anymore, and it is always good to eat refreshingly.

Therefore, one is a tofu meat foam pickle bun, and the other is a flower roll.

Father-in-law Xue asked the candidates to collect the written test papers, and on the other hand, asked the candidates to make the dishes of the recipes they had just written.

And it is particularly clear that the female officer to be selected must do it herself.

After the female officials were retired, Gonggong Xue looked up the recipes handed in by the female officials.

When he turned to the three of Jinyan, Xue Gonggong's face darkened even more.

Jinyan's handwriting is not bad, on the contrary, it is still the most dignified and atmospheric among several people.

Just by words, she can give the highest score.

However, can you get a beautiful dish name, do you know what packaging is!!

Look at other people's, what only envy the mandarin duck does not envy the fairy, what Qiong juice Jiao Phoenix, what frost leaves are red in February, what pear blossoms bring rain in spring.

Let's take a look at Shen Jinyan's, dried vegetable small baked cakes, tofu meat foam pickle buns, and flower rolls.

Xue Gonggong said that just looking at the names of these three dishes, he didn't have any idea of eating, such a simple and rough and poor dim sum, who wants to eat it!!

Although he thought so, he still took the recipes written by these girls to the imperial study for the first time for the saint to see.

"Auntie, is this the funny little doll you said?"

Today, Emperor Qingfeng asked the eldest princess.

"If you go back to the emperor, it's her."

As soon as the eldest princess glanced at the font, she recognized that it was Jinhiko's character, and nodded.

"This kid still writes really well, much better than the old four."

Emperor Qingfeng nodded and said with a smile, he was quite willing to raise one or two of the little girls that his aunt liked.

It's just that he was a daughter-in-law for that nephew, and he thought it was better to forget it.

And Zhou Yunzheng, the seventh prince on the side, couldn't help but be a little anxious.

When Zhou Yunzheng saw Shen Jinyuan for the first time a few years ago, he was shocked, and later admired her personality and talent, and he started to admire her early.

His health has always been poor, coupled with the early death of his biological mother, in his early years, his status in the palace was not as good as some slaves, such as Gonggong Xue.

At that time, when he first saw Shen Jinyuan, he thought that Shen Jinyuan would be like other ladies in the capital, and when he first heard that he was the prince, he was interested in him.

But when he heard that he was the Seventh Prince, he turned around and walked away.

After all, at that time, Shen Jinyuan was already known as the first beauty and talent in the capital.

Shen Jinyuan extended the hand of friendship, and the two became pen pals, and there were always two or three letters exchanged a month.

Of course, in the eyes of the Seventh Prince, Shen Jinyuan is an authentic lady.

The two never talked about anything else in their letters, except for homework, that is, Shen Jinyuan told him how to please the saints.

After Shen Jinyuan's nudge, Zhou Yunzheng is now getting more and more harmonious with the saint's father and son.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be there on an occasion like today.

He is two years older than Shen Jinyuan, and as early as last year, Emperor Qingfeng mentioned that he wanted to pick a side concubine for him first.

Originally, with Shen Jinyuan's family background, it was enough to be his side concubine.

It's just that Shen Jinyuan is arrogant, even if it is the prince's side concubine, it is also a concubine, and he is not happy.

Therefore, in his correspondence with Zhou Yunzheng, he usually stated that he would rather be a commoner's wife than a noble concubine.

If it were an ordinary person, such as Zhou Botong or Nangong Hao, it is estimated that Shen Jinyuan would have guessed that Shen Jinyuan was playing a trick to capture the old people.

I just want to be a commoner's wife, which one of you is a civilian?

Even the children of the same official position as your father are not good.

It's not that the two are smarter than Zhou Yunzheng, but Zhou Yunzheng cares about Shen Jinyuan, as long as it is said by his sweetheart, it is naturally right and good.

The eldest princess on the side glanced at Zhou Yunzheng and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

If Zhou Yunzheng had a crush on Shen Jinyan, she wouldn't mind keeping a matchmaker, but unfortunately, people were interested in Shen Jinyuan, who had a seven-trick exquisite heart.
