Gluttonous Crown Princess - Chapter 115

At the beginning of September, the sky was clear, the breeze was peaceful, and the warm sunshine enveloped the Yaoguang Hall.

The small kitchen is filled with tempting sweet aromas. A big pot is filled with sugar-fried chestnuts, all round and small. The brown chestnut skin can not stand the high temperature roasting, and a slit opens, revealing the golden and sweet chestnuts. The meat comes.

When Xu Wenchan came to pay the bill with Tao Ti yesterday, he brought a large basket of chestnuts and hawthorns by the way.

After letting the palace people take care of it in the morning, Tao Ti began to study eating.

On weekdays, she would definitely not be so diligent, and she would go into the kitchen in the morning. But today is different. This afternoon, Mrs. Gu, Mrs. Gu, and Mrs. Gu’s family will come to the East Palace to greet her.

Thinking of the uncle Gu’s secretive care of Pei Yan for many years, and that Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Gu are both elders, Tao Ti, a junior, decided to entertain them well. After all, there are food on the dinner table, which can also enhance some feelings.

Hawthorn is not good for cooking, so Tao Ti made some appetizing and invigorating hawthorn cakes, snowflake hawthorn balls, hawthorn jam, canned hawthorn and other desserts.

As for the chestnuts, in addition to the sugar-fried chestnuts, Tao Ti made a chestnut stewed chicken soup, a chestnut braised pork, and a pot of yam chestnut porridge, served in a purple casserole, and slowly boiled over a small fire.

In addition to chestnut dishes, she also made sweet and sour and crispy pot meat, as well as a large portion of chicken wings and shrimp stew pot. In addition, the six good dishes from the East Palace Dining Room are filled with a large table, which is full of sincerity.

Tao Ti was changing into neat skirts in the dormitory when the wife of the Gu family arrived at Yaoguang Hall.

When she heard the report from the palace, she was still a little nervous, pulled her clothes, and asked Linglong, “Is my appearance okay?”

Linglong smiled sincerely and said, “Okay, very good. Even if you don’t dress up, the princess is pretty and slim.”

“You can hold me more and more.” Tao Ti blinked slyly at Linglong, “but I like it!”

“The slave and maidservant are telling the truth.”

“Well, let’s go out first, it won’t make people wait for a long time.”

Tao Ti took a deep breath and straightened her waist, with a gentle and friendly smile on her bright and delicate face.

In any case, the temperament has to be grasped.

With Linglong’s support, she walked around an eight-foot-high red sandalwood screen with jade cloud and dragon patterns, and slowly walked towards the flower hall where the guests were treated.

Old Mrs. Gu, Mrs. Gu Bai’s family, and Gu Minglan, the eldest girl of the Gu family, sat in the lower right position in turn. Seeing Tao Ti coming out, the three of them quickly got up and saluted respectfully.

Tao Ti whispered, “Grandma, aunt, and cousin are all in the family, don’t be polite, please sit down quickly.”

Before entering the palace, Mrs. Gu and Bai’s impression of Tao Ti, the princess, was somewhat indescribable.

They had heard about the prince taking poison on the wedding night, and also heard that the prince and the prince shared the joys and sorrows, and treated the prince with gentleness and consideration… After hearing so much about the truth and the truth, they did not have a concrete bottom.

But now I heard Tao Ti’s kind address to them, and I couldn’t help but feel a little better.

After taking the seat, he raised his head and looked up at the upper seat, and both Mrs. Gu and Bai’s eyes were bright.

Today Tao Ti is wearing a gentle and gentle bean-green dress, covered with a tea-white shirt embroidered with a lotus flower, wearing a concentric bun and a set of pearl heads. The pearls were round and bright, dotted on the sideburns of the crow crow, making her temperament more gentle.

Her makeup is also light, slightly pink, coquettish but not charming, and generous.

In addition, she has a real smile with her eyebrows bent, giving people a sense of comfort in the spring breeze.

Mrs. Gu has lived for most of her life, and she has met many people. Seeing Tao Ti’s face and aura, she knows that this grandson and daughter-in-law is a good girl with a clear mind.

The Bai family is a gentle and good-tempered person. Now that the princess is white and beautiful, and the eyebrows are full of gentleness and closeness, there is no half of the princess, and the impression of her has also improved. few.

Gu Minglan, the eldest girl of the Gu family, was also amazed by Tao Ti’s beauty. Before she came to Chang’an, she had only heard people say that the princess was so good or that was not good, but she had never heard of her appearance.

Looking at her face now, standing next to the prince’s cousin…well, it’s barely a match.

Tao Ti saw that the palace people had already poured tea for them, so he asked them if they would drink milk tea or honey grapefruit tea, and they were in a good mood when they had something sweet.

Mrs. Gu and the Bai family politely said no, but Gu Minglan was curious and said, “Prince princess, do you also have milk tea here?”

Seeing her answer, Tao Ti said in his heart that the strategic policy of using food as a communication bridge is correct!

“Cousin heard of milk tea?”

“Before I entered Chang’an, I heard people say that Chang’an has an extra fashionable drink called milk tea. I wanted to try it, but there was a limited sale of the milk tea in Gourmet Pavilion. I sent a maid to go there three times. I haven’t bought it again!”

Gu Minglan also whispered in his heart, this milk tea is so delicious? It’s so popular.

After hearing this, Tao Ti chuckled, “Cousin Mo Chou, I’ll give you a VIP card. Next time you take this card and go to Gourmet Pavilion to buy it. You will definitely be able to buy it.”

Gu Minglan was stunned, shook her head and said, “I heard that there are only 100 VIP cards in Chang’an. It is very rare. Thank you for the kindness of the princess, I can’t accept this.”

Seeing that this cousin has a quick and neat temperament, Tao Ti squinted and smiled, “It’s okay.”

Gu Minglan still wanted to decline, and Tao Ti, who was sitting here, added, “I am the shopkeeper behind this restaurant. I still have a lot of VIP cards of this kind. Cousin, you are welcome.”

Gu Minglan, “???”

She looked at Tao Ti in astonishment, and Tao Ti nodded at her as an affirmative response.

Gu Minglan, “!!!”

Although Mrs. Gu and Bai’s face were not obvious, they were a little surprised. It was strange that the crown princess would still open a shop outside the palace to do business.

Not long after, three cups of fragrant and sweet pearl milk tea and a portion of sauteed chestnuts were put on the coffee table together.

Gu Minglan took a sip while holding a bowl. The warm and silky milk tea poured into his mouth. It was very mellow. The thick milky aroma had a tea fragrance, and it was not particularly greasy. The pearls had a slight sweetness, powdery waxy and waxy. very chewy.

“The taste is really good!” Gu Minglan was overwhelmed by this taste at once.

Mrs. Gu and Bai’s both took two sips, and they both thought it was good.

The atmosphere in the flower hall is much more harmonious than at first.

After sitting for a while, someone from the palace came in and told him that the yam and chestnut porridge on the stove had been stewed.

Tao Ti put down the cup in his hand and smiled and said to Mrs. Gu and the others, “It’s already noon now, let’s go to the dining room for lunch.”

Mrs. Gu answered “OK” and walked to the side hall together.

Looking at the sumptuous dishes on the table, Mrs. Gu gave a slight meal and sighed, “This is such a big table, the princess, you bother.”

Tao Ti whispered, “My grandmother, aunt, and cousin are not only the guests of the East Palace, but also the family members who are connected to the Royal Highness. I will naturally entertain them.”

Mrs. Gu said this very hard.

After being seated, Bai glanced at the dishes on the table and smiled gently, “There are several dishes made with chestnuts today.”

Tao Ti said, “It happened that I got a basket of chestnuts yesterday, so I made a few to taste the unique taste of this autumn day.”

Bai’s face was surprised, “Prince Princess, you said you made all these chestnut dishes?”

“Well, I also made the pot of pork and chicken wings and shrimp stew pot.”

After that, Tao Ti personally scooped a bowl of yam chestnut porridge for Mrs. Gu, and said softly, “Grandma, you taste this porridge, I specially prepared it for you. Chestnuts and yams are both good for tonic in autumn. The ingredients are good for calming the mind and prolonging life.”

Looking at the white porcelain bowl she handed over, Mrs. Gu felt warm in her heart. She was about to take it, but she caught a glimpse of the white jade bracelet on her slender wrist.

Mrs. Gu was obviously startled.

Tao Ti followed her gaze and saw that it was the jade bracelet. He explained softly, “This is…well, it was passed to me by Mother Lan next to my mother, saying that she left it to the future daughter-in-law.”

“Yes, this bracelet, when she canonized the queen, I personally put it on her… You are her chosen daughter-in-law, she naturally wants to leave it to you.” Old Madam Gu said softly, her voice a little sad. Trembling.

In a blink of an eye, her Yuanyuan has been gone for so many years.

Bai heard that her mother-in-law was in a bad mood, and looked at it, and at a glance, she could see that this was the jade bracelet that my sister-in-law often wore when she was alive. Seeing her mother-in-law like this, I’m afraid it’s just seeing things and thinking about people.

She pursed her lips, and hurriedly changed the subject, “Mother, look at how well this yam and chestnut porridge is stewed, and it is thick and dense. The princess is really considerate.”

After listening to this, Mrs. Gu also recovered. When I looked at Tao Ti again, a kind of sincere love appeared in the slightly muddy old eyes, and he sighed, “Yes, the prince is really interested.”

“You can eat comfortably.”

Tao Ti retracted his hand, and quietly covered the jade bracelet with his sleeve, and said to Bai’s and Gu Minglan, “Auntie, cousin, let’s move the chopsticks too, otherwise the food won’t taste good when it gets cold.”

“Eat, eat while it’s hot.” Old Madam Gu said.

Tao Ti picked up his chopsticks and took a piece of red-colored pot of meat and delivered it to his mouth.

After frying the starchy skin on the outside of the pan-wrapped meat twice in oil, it became crispy and crispy, and the surface was covered with rich sweet and sour sauce, sour and sweet. When you bite through the skin and eat the tender tenderloin inside, the meat is full of fragrance, and the big pieces of meat fill your mouth, giving people a feeling of extreme satisfaction.

Gu Minglan frowned slightly when she saw Tao Ti eating the pot of meat with a look of enjoyment, not just a plate of fried meat, as for eating so happy?

With curiosity, she also clipped a piece.

Just throwing it into her mouth, the sweet and sour taste made her brows move slightly. After chewing twice, her eyes gradually lit up, “This fried meat tastes really good. Princess, this dish is really yours. made?”

As soon as she said the words, she suddenly realized that it was a bit rude to ask, and hurriedly added, “Don’t get me wrong, I don’t doubt what you mean, but this fried meat is so delicious…”

Tao Ti smiled at her and said, “I understand what you mean. I did make this dish. I have nothing to do, so I love to eat, cooking…well, it’s pretty good.”

Gu Minglan exclaimed, and said in his heart: This cooking skill is more than good, this cooking skill is simply amazing!

Tao Ti sees that Gu Minglan is also a favorite, and she is a little more intimate, suggesting, “Cousin, you can try this chicken wing and shrimp stew pot.”

“good!”

Gu Minglan looked at the stew pot, and saw that the black casserole was full of ingredients, the attractively colored river prawns and chicken wings were neatly sized, and the surface was sprinkled with white sesame seeds and emerald green onions, red, green, green and white. Accompanied by the strong fragrance that is constantly emanating, it brings double stimulation to people’s vision and smell, and the saliva is automatically secreted before even tasting it.

Don’t say Gu Minglan, even the old lady Gu and Bai’s seeing this dish were aroused by a strong appetite, and they stretched out their chopsticks one after another.

Gu Minglan first sandwiched a chicken wing with a knife. During the braising process, the salty sauce was completely immersed in the chicken wings along the opening, so that every strand of chicken was full of fragrance. With one bite, the chicken wings melt in your mouth and are extremely tender.

The shrimp meat in the pot is also fully integrated with the sauce, and the meat is full of elasticity, and you can taste the sweetness of the unique shrimp by chewing.

“Wow, it turns out that there is a layer of vegetable underneath. I thought it was a whole pot of fresh shrimp and chicken wings.” After Gu Minglan caught the third chicken wing, the lotus root slices, onions, potatoes, and potatoes were buried under the stew pot. The carrots are also exposed.

“These vegetables are full of meat and soup below, and the taste is not worse than chicken wings and shrimps, especially for rice.” Tao Ti said enthusiastically, every time she eats the stew pot, she eats the soup and vegetables, and can eat enough. Six bowls of rice.

After tasting two dishes, Gu Minglan developed an inexplicable trust in Tao Ti.

So as Tao Ti said, she scooped a large spoonful of bibimbap full of soup, and then she ate a big bite. She nodded, “Fragrant, it’s really fragrant. Grandmother, mother, you guys try these too. The dishes are so fragrant!”

After all, Bai’s and Mrs. Gu are a little old, and their stomachs are too greasy to eat. After only two bites, they resisted their greed and switched to a lighter chestnut stewed chicken soup.

The method of chestnut stewed chicken soup is not much different from ordinary chicken soup, except that fresh chestnuts are put in it. The young hen was stewed and rotten, the meat was tender but slightly chewy, and it was very easy to eat. The essence of chicken soup is clear in color, with a light golden chicken oil floating on the surface, but it is not greasy to drink, and the soup has the sweetness of red dates and the aroma of chestnut, so it is exceptionally sweet.

“The taste of this chicken soup is really delicious.” Bai’s praised, looking at Tao Ti with more appreciation.

Mrs. Gu kept nodding her head, with a warm smile on her wrinkled face, “I didn’t expect your child to have such a good craftsmanship. Yan’er marrying you is really a blessing for his three lives. ”

Tao Ti curled her eyes and smiled shyly.

A few people here happily used lunch, and on the other side of the Zixiao Hall, Pei Yan also received a loving meal from Tao Ti.

Normally, when she brought food, one food box was almost enough, but this time it used three carved red lacquered crabapple flower food boxes.

Gu’s little Langjun Gu Zhihong approached suspiciously, “Didn’t the dining room have already sent a table to eat, why is there still?”

Uncle Gu, the newly appointed Minister of War, Gu Qu, also frowned, feeling a little extravagant and wasted.

Pei Yan didn’t say a word, and Fu Xirui was clever and hurriedly smiled, “Master Gu, Gu Xiaolangjun, this is food sent by the princess. The princess is considerate of her. Every time she cooks, she will give something to her. Your Highness tasted it.”

Both the father and son of the Gu family were taken aback: The princess did the food?
