Chapter 16: Can't Cook
Xiao Ember wanted to spit out the dim sum in his mouth, but the crispy peach crisp melted into his mouth and instantly melted into his lips and teeth, leaving only the thick crispy smell in his mouth.
And the innocent and cute Erbao didn't know what he had done, so his father stiffened in place for a long, long time.
Su Ying touched the foreheads of Dabao and Zhao's mother, probably because of the weather, both of them recovered a little slowly, and they still have some low-grade fever, but Zhao's mother's pneumonia has improved, and the crackles in the lungs don't sound so obvious.
"Princess, the slave maid found that there was a well in the backyard, the well was alive, and the well water slave maid got some water to wipe the body of Xiao Shizi and Mother Zhao."
Su Ying felt that since he had been exiled, he should not call him an honorific title, so as not to expose his identity too much and cause unnecessary trouble.
"Baishuang, you can call me sister in the future, I'm not a princess anymore."
Where did Bai Shuang dare to call Su Ying a sister, and shook his head again and again to refuse.
She felt that Su Ying's changes were too great, Su Ying in the past valued her identity the most, even if it was okay for her, but she was definitely a master and servant, and she didn't dare to have the slightest idea of overstepping the rules.
"Slave, slave or maid, let's call you Madame."
Su Ying didn't quite understand the hierarchical concept that was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people here, but she insisted that she didn't say anything more.
Su Ying took out the iron pot she bought, and there were restrictions on the use of iron by civilians in Chu State, so she spent a lot of money to buy this pot, but she ate refined food in the last days, and she really didn't understand how this thing worked.
"White Frost, do you know how to cook?"
Bai Shuang was embarrassed when asked, Su Ying was a young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion before she got married, even if she was not favored, the basic meals were still served by a large kitchen, she was the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she was as good as a young lady with a small portal when she went out, and she really hadn't entered the stove room.
"Slave maid, slave maid doesn't understand much, but slave maid can try it."
"If the little lady can trust the old man, the old man can do it." He Shouyi stood up from the corner and said.
Su Ying looked at him, "Uncle knows how to cook?" ”
He Shouyi smiled, "Understand, as long as the little lady has ingredients, she can do anything." ”
"Yes, I did buy quite a bit." Su Ying opened the baggage and took out a few eggs, as well as some tiger jerky and some seasonal fruits and vegetables, which she didn't know how to make, but she thought she could eat them all.
"Why don't you come and take a look, what can you do with these, you can look at it and make a better meal."
He Shouyi saw that she was willing to trust herself, so she walked to the burden and selected a few ingredients, "These are enough." ”
"Okay, you can take what you need to use, and let the white frost give you a hand."
He Shouyi nodded, took his things and went out of the house with Baishuang to the backyard.
There was only one exit from the farmhouse, and as long as they didn't go out, the officials wouldn't restrict their movements too much.
Su Ying carefully fed the nutrient solution in the water bag to Dabao, the little guy was already thin, and now he is even thinner when he is sick again, she is a little distressed, thinking that when this milk doll is sick, she must find a way to feed them to be fat.
"Ahem......"
As soon as Dabao was put down, Zhao's mother coughed violently.
Su Ying could only step forward and pat her on the back.
After coughing, Zhao's mother woke up leisurely, and when she opened her eyes, she saw that Su Ying still couldn't react.
"King, princess......"
"Mother Zhao is awake, get up and drink some water."
Su Ying handed the water bag filled with glucose to her lips.
Zhao's mother was really uncomfortable, opened her mouth to take a sip, and found that the water was actually sweet.
She hurriedly pushed open the water bag with water, reluctant to drink it anymore, "The old slave is not thirsty, the princess can keep it for herself." ”
Su Ying looked at her kind eyebrows, and her heart was a little stuffy, "I still have a lot of them, you are about to drink, so that the disease can get better." ”
Mother Zhao looked at her expectant eyes, couldn't bear to disappoint her, and drank all the glucose water into it.
She thought she was going to die, but she didn't expect to have a chance to wake up again.
"Mother Zhao is hungry, Baishuang has already gone to cook, and we will have something to eat in a while."
Mother Zhao was a little surprised, it would be good for them to have one dry food a day to eat, where would they still have the conditions to cook?
Su Ying saw her doubts and explained: "When I arrived in the county seat today, I asked the official messenger to buy some things for me, so we don't have to eat dry food tonight." ”
Mother Zhao didn't think much about it when she heard her say this, when she was exiled, she did secretly stuff some silver coins for Su Ying, thinking that those silver coins had not been used up yet.
"Xiao Shizi, what's wrong?" Mother Zhao looked at Dabao lying beside her with a distressed face, how did a good child become like this.
"Mother Zhao, don't worry, the child is sick, and now after taking medicine, it won't be long before he gets better."
Mother Zhao shook her head sadly, feeling that Su Ying was comforting her, this is on the way to exile, a cold wind can kill an adult, let alone a child.
"It's so fragrant......"
In the air, there was a strong fragrance, and Su Ying was immediately attracted to attention, "I'll go to the backyard to have a look." ”
Su Ying couldn't wait to run to the backyard, and saw He Shouyi pancakes, the aroma of oil and water mixed with rice and noodles was almost hungry!
As a decisive general, Su Ying's only hobby is to watch pictures of past food in addition to training, and the reason why she is so obsessed with it is also because her comrades-in-arms from an ancient martial arts family have gotten some ingredients and made some dishes for her, and the taste is still unforgettable.
"Madame, these pancakes are ready, you can taste them." Bai Shuang held a pancake and came to Su Ying.
Su Ying didn't say anything polite to her, so she took it and ate it.
After taking a bite, the smell of rice and oil mixed with oil made her swallow her tongue.
Before she could even get back to her senses, a piece of cake was gone.
"Uncle, your craftsmanship is amazing." She gave He Shouyi a thumbs up.
The cooking skills were recognized, and He Gongyi also laughed, "It's good if the little lady likes it." ”
Su Ying let the two of them eat too, and then took a few cakes back to the house, and as soon as she entered, nearly twenty pairs of eyes in the room fell on the pancakes in her hand.
Su Ying took the pancakes to Erbao, "Ling'er, come and eat the pancakes." ”
Erbao felt that he was going to be carried away by happiness today, and it was peach crisp and pancakes, as if the days had returned to the past!
"Take two more and give them to your daddy."
Erbao nodded obediently, "Yes." ”
Erbao took the pancake and was about to take it to Xiao Ash, who was taking care of Dabao, when a figure in the corner suddenly rushed out and snatched the pancake from Erbao's hand, and he seemed to be stuffing it into his mouth like crazy.
"Ling'er be careful!"
"Ahh
Erbao was startled by the sudden change, and his small body stumbled and fell to the ground.
