Chapter 1220 Cooking
The back door of Gongzi's Mansion is very narrow compared to the front door, and one person can pass through at a time, Xia Ye only raised his hand and gently buckled the door knocker a few times after getting Erniang's instructions, and shouted as gently as possible: "Is there anyone?" We're here to deliver food to the house. After a while, a creak was heard, and the back door opened a small crack, and a dexterous eye quietly looked at the two people outside through the crack in the door, and then the door clicked and was completely opened.
A little girl who was about fourteen or fifteen years old appeared at the door, "Ah, Erniang, you are here, our cook is worried that there is no food to cook at noon." Sun Ernian also grinned, gave a slight salute and said, "Miss Li, don't make fun of me, this son's mansion also grows a lot of vegetables, and I'm just trying to give my son and Miss a taste." The little girl laughed too, and her voice was as crisp as a silver bell.
"Hey, Erniang, this sister is very good, I don't know who it is?" The little girl raised her eyebrows and looked at Xia Ye carefully, with a few hints of inquiry in her eyes. Sun Erniang then replied: "Miss, this is my niece, and she has also received the favor of her son before, and she specially came with me today to thank her son." ”
Xia Ye gave the little girl a slight salute, but the little girl seemed to have doubts about what Sun Erniang said, and looked at Xia Ye from head to toe before turning sideways to let them in.
Sun Erniang put the cart at the door, only carrying this basket of vegetables and Xia Ye into the Gongzi Mansion, they followed behind Miss Li, Xia Ye deliberately pulled Sun Erniang gently, and when the distance from the little girl was a little farther, she asked Sun Erniang softly: "Erniang, didn't you say that Gongzi Duge's generation is the only son of the Li family?" Why is there an extra young lady surnamed Li in this house? ”
Sun Erniang looked around for a while, and then approached Xia Ye and whispered in her ear: "Girl, you don't know, this Miss Li is not the biological son of the Li family, because at that time, the wife in charge of the Li family felt that she was too thin as an only son, and she also envied that other families had daughters around her knees, so she adopted a girl from a distant relative with the same surname, which is now Miss Li. ”
After Sun Erniang finished speaking, she shook her head, only to see that the Miss Li family had already walked away, and hurriedly pulled Xia Ye to chase after her. Xia Ye looked at it as she walked along the way, this prince's mansion was much bigger than she imagined, but the next person was there, and she only met two or three people along the way.
Just when Xia Ye wanted to ask Sun Erniang again, the group of them had already come to the kitchen. Miss Li's silver-bell-like voice sounded again: "Sister Jiang, Erniang is here, you don't have to worry about it now, right?" Xia Ye looked around and found that there was only one cook in this huge kitchen, which was quite strange.
"Oh, my second mother, you're finally here." Sister Jiang is worried about lunch, this is the same as the old three every day, even if she does it well, she is about to vomit everyone, and she is the only one in this house who can cook, and there is no one who gives her ideas, every time she only sends some different ingredients to Sun Erniang, so that everyone can change the taste.
Sun Erniang put the basket of vegetables on the ground, and then said to Sister Jiang with a smile: "You are obviously not looking forward to me, but looking forward to these dishes." This made the room laugh.
Sister Jiang was also a hearty person, and when she heard Erniang's words, she was a little out of breath with laughter, so she finally stopped laughing, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said to Miss Li: "Miss, you go out first, I'm going to cook soon, the smoke is heavy, and if I choke you in a while, the son will definitely punish me." ”
When Miss Li heard this, she laughed shyly, and then said: "Brother won't punish people indiscriminately for a little thing, Sister Jiang, it's clear that you think I'm in the way here, so you want to drive me away, forget it, since I can't help anything, then don't bother you, I'll go out to play." Although he said the words of blame, there was clearly no tone of blame, and Xia Ye suddenly became a little curious about this Miss Li.
Xia Ye was thinking about it, and suddenly felt as if a gaze crossed his body, and when he looked back, he could only see a trace of Miss Li's shadow, Xia Ye clearly felt that there was some malice in his eyes, but it shouldn't be Miss Li, she looked like a bright little girl.
"I patronized and spoke just now, Erniang, who is this?" Sister Jiang looked at Xia Ye, with a faint smile in her eyes.

"This is my niece, who came to help me today." Sun Erniang said with a smile. Today's introduction is no less than five times, Xia Ye is used to it, and quickly nodded at this Sister Jiang. "Well, I look like a clever girl, what are you doing now?" Sister Jiang asked Xia Ye. "It's because she hasn't done any work before that I took her out to see the world." Before Xia Ye could answer, Sun Erniang took over and blocked her way.
"Oh, are you familiar with the kitchen chores?" Sister Jiang continued to ask, this time Sun Erniang did not answer, because she heard that Sister Jiang intended to let Xia Ye stay here to help, but she didn't know what Xia Ye was thinking in her heart, so she didn't dare to answer rashly for her.
"I don't do a lot of chores, but I can fry a few dishes." Xia Ye replied softly, but it made the other two people look surprised. "Ah, it turns out that the girl can cook, that's great, what is the girl's specialty?" Sister Jiang was not only surprised, but also a little excited, if this girl really knew how to cook, then leaving her by her side to help would make it much easier for herself, so I wanted to know more about it.
Xia Ye thought for a moment, and then replied, "I don't seem to have anything special at it, just like steamed sea bass, braised lion's head, crystal elbow, etc., these can be done." ”
"Ah, Erniang, your niece is really amazing, these three are all big dishes for the banquet." Sister Jiang's eyes lit up, thinking that if it was really as this girl herself said, then she must be left behind.
Sun Erniang listened to Xia Ye's words, her palms were a little sweaty, although she had seen early on that this girl was not an ordinary person, but this cooking ...... Sun Erniang looked at Sister Jiang's appearance, if this is done well, it is easy to say, if it is not done well, I am afraid it will not be a good end, but she still had a smile on her face, and replied: "Yes, my niece has never seen the world, Sister Jiang, don't be surprised." ”
