Gluttonous Crown Princess - Chapter 73
Tao Ti was stunned for a moment when she saw this beautiful and cute little cat.
Zhang said that she was going to give her a gift. What flashed in her mind were jewelry or silk and silk, but she didn’t expect it to be a cat.
Zhang turned his face and looked at her expression. Seeing that her face was more surprised, there was no surprise in the imagination. He paused, and whispered, “Ati, don’t you like it?”
Tao Tikan came back to his senses and smiled, “I like it, this cat is very beautiful.”
Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, “As long as you like it.”
Tao Ti stared at the cat, and suddenly there was an event in his mind——
That was when the original owner was eight years old. During the New Year, the original host’s uncle gave a Linqing lion cat to the original owner. The original owner was very happy and was very concerned about the cat.
Unexpectedly, the cousin Tao Sirou of the second room took a fancy, and went to ask the original owner. The original owner refused to give it, so Tao Sirou took advantage of the presence of the adults and acted like a coquettish and betrayed the Zhang clan.
Zhang was concerned about his face, thinking that it was nothing more than a cat, so he gave it to Tao Sirou.
For this reason, the mother and daughter had another big quarrel. One felt that the mother was partial and unreasonable, and the other felt that the daughter was careless.
A few days later, Tao Sirou wanted to test whether the cat could swim, so she threw the kitten into the pond.
In the winter, the cat froze to death.
The original owner was extremely angry, stepped forward to fight Tao Sirou, buried the kitten, and locked himself in the room and cried all day and night.
So far, the original owner’s personality has become more withdrawn, and he has become more and more alienated from the Zhang family.
After many years, Zhang once again sent a cat, probably because he wanted to make up for his regrets many years ago, right?
Tao Ti looked at this well-behaved cat who was as white as snow, and her heart was a little mixed for a while——
Some injuries are irreparable.
For example, no matter how much Zhang Shi does now, the original owner is no longer there.
Tao Ti took the little cat, who was extremely obedient and looked at her with round eyes.
It’s a pity that Tao Ti wasn’t in the mood to tease the cat at the moment, and he touched it carelessly twice before letting Linglong hug it.
Seeing her reaction, Zhang’s heart was even more upset. Does Ati like it or not?
Tao Ti didn’t mention the cat anymore, but looked at Zhang and said, “Is mother hungry, I’m going to get some snacks?”
Zhang stunned and could see that she was evading the topic, and she went down the **** and smiled, “Okay.”
Tao Ti got up, “Mother, sit down first.”
She went out, leaving Zhang’s family to sit in the hall.
The afternoon sun was clear and warm, Zhang’s face was full of sadness, and said to the woman next to her, “Do you think Ati still remembers the past? She is angry in her heart.”
The mother-in-law comforted, “Madam, don’t worry, the old slave likes the princess like this cat, and for what happened back then, the second room’s Si Niang is to blame, not the madam.”
Zhang sighed heavily, only feeling heavy in his heart.
Not long after, Tao Ti returned. The palace man behind him was holding a tray, a plate of pickled chicken feet, two bowls of shrimp wontons, four pieces of beef pot helmets, and a plate of braised duck wings, full of dangdang, full of aroma.
Zhang glanced at it and slapped his tongue, “Why do you do so much.”
Tao Ti said, “It’s all snacks. If you look at it, you don’t think it’s too much to eat while chatting. Pickled chicken feet and braised duck wings are made in the morning, and it’s just right to eat right now.”
She made these foods, mainly because dry chatting was a bit embarrassing, and she was able to talk more casually while eating. Secondly, she herself is greedy. Every afternoon, she has to eat some snacks to get addicted to her mouth.
After the food was set, Tao Ti picked up the spoon and ate the bowl of small shrimp wontons first.
Wonton is still steaming, with a layer of emerald green onion on the surface, which makes you very appetite looking at it. The wonton skin is smooth, the meat filling is delicious, the shrimp meat is full and ruddy, and there is a delicious and light soup, which is simply delicious in the world.
Seeing that she was eating with relish, Zhang couldn’t help swallowing her saliva, took a spoon and took a wonton into his mouth.
This meal, the right flavor and smoothness, made her eyes bright, “This wonton is well done, the soup is good, the skin is good, and the filling is good.”
Tao Ti had already wiped out a small half of the bowl and chuckled at her, “If you like to eat, eat more.”
With that, Tao Ti picked up another piece of fried crispy golden beef pan helmet, and took a bite. The pancakes are crispy and straight, the crust is salty and fragrant and crispy, the beef filling is still a bit hot, and the meat is attractive. You can also taste the finely chopped lotus root and mushrooms inside. The addition of these two ingredients, Make the taste of Guokui richer.
Zhang saw her eating a loaf in two or three bites, and asked softly, “Is it the same for you to eat under the temple?”
Just as Tao Ti picked up the second pot helmet, he was taken aback by Zhang’s question, and then he nodded honestly, “Yeah.”
Zhang cried, “This…Although the prince has a gentle temperament, I don’t care about this, but the girl’s family still has to be more gentle.”
Tao Ti blinked, “But your Royal Highness said that he likes to watch me eat, and if I eat more, he will eat more.”
Zhang was taken aback.
Tao Ti smiled, “Mother, don’t worry, Your Highness is kind to me.”
Hearing this, Zhang realized that his daughter’s condition was completely different from before. Optimistic, lively and positive, there is always a warm smile between his eyes.
Is it because of being with the prince? If so, it can be seen that the prince is really good to Ati.
After using the wontons and pot kombu, Tao Ti chewed on the stewed duck wings and soaked chicken feet.
Seeing her one after another, Zhang couldn’t stop gnawing, and muttered in his heart, is it so delicious?
After hesitating for a moment, she also picked up a braised duck wing.
The sauce-colored duck wings exudes a tantalizing fragrance, and once delivered to the nose, you can smell the spicy and unique fragrance of the stewed material. When the tip of the tongue touches the duck wing, the taste buds are instantly ignited by the spicy and delicious taste, and saliva is involuntarily secreted from the mouth. Every bit of meat of duck wing fully absorbs the fragrance of brine, it is fresh and delicious, and the more you eat it, the more you eat it.
The chicken feet with pickled peppers, which are comparable to braised duck wings, are also looked down upon at first, but once they are tasted, they can’t stop the magical existence of their mouths. The soaking white and tender chicken feet are hot and sour, the skin on the claws is tender and slippery, and the flesh on the palms is chewy and chewy.
Before he knew it, Zhang gnawed several times. When he came back to his senses, he lowered his head to see that there was already a pile of bones in front of him.
She was a little embarrassed, pursed her lips, and secretly raised her eyes to look at Tao Ti who was opposite. Seeing that she was completely immersed in the eating, she didn’t even notice her side, Zhang’s sigh of relief.
While breathing a sigh of relief, I couldn’t help but laugh at myself: If I eat something with my own daughter and care about the rules and images, the prince doesn’t care about this… Well, when did I become such a staid person?
Years ago, she also ate as she wanted, and drank as she wanted, and she had lived wantonly.
“Mother, why don’t you eat anymore, you are full?” Tao Ti asked curiously, with a little chili on the corner of his mouth.
“Well, I’m almost done.” Zhang squeezed out a smile, “If you haven’t eaten enough, continue to eat and leave me alone.”
Tao Ti nodded, and smoothly wiped out the remaining chicken feet.
Zhang watched Tao Ti eat, but in his mind she remembered what she looked like when she was young. It was so good, free and happy.
Suddenly, an idea hidden deep in my heart gradually emerged. It looks like a small emerald green bud that just broke out of the soil, growing vigorously upwards.
After drinking another cup of tea, the sky gradually dimmed.
Zhang also got up to leave, Tao Ti personally escorted her to the door.
When the palace staff put gifts on the carriage, Zhang suddenly took Tao Ti’s hand and said with a sincere voice, “Ati, remember, no matter what happens in the future, I will always be on your side.”
Tao Ti was startled, but he didn’t expect Zhang Clan to say such emotional words.
Zhang gave her a gentle smile, and saw that the carriage was also installed, and said, “Okay, I’ll go back first. You are in the East Palace.”
Tao Ti nodded, “Mother walks slowly.”
When the carriage gradually left, Tao Ti frowned. How did she feel that Zhang’s words just now had no meaning?
Is it purely lyrical? It’s not in line with her character.
As she thought about it, she walked back, Linglong came up with the lion cat in her arms and asked, “Prince Princess, do you plan to keep this cat, or…?”
Compared to keeping pets, Tao Ti prefers to play tricks and eat.
She raised her eyes and looked at the cat. She wanted to say, “Make a nest for it outside, you can take care of it”, but the cat suddenly “meowed”, with a soft tone, as if acting like a baby.
Those beautiful mandarin duck eyes were still staring at her, full of cuteness.
Tao Ti, “…”
Okay, for your lovely sake.
Tao Ti stepped forward, took the cat in Linglong’s arms, walked around in the hall, finally chose a corner, and ordered, “Press a cat litter here, well, prepare another soft cushion, two Small pots, one drinks water and the other eats food…Oh yes, we also need to prepare a bathing basin. It has such a long hair that it will easily get lice if it is not cleaned up.”
Linglong responded one by one and suggested, “Prince Concubine, since you plan to keep this cat for a long time, do you want to go to Siyuan to find an **** who can help cats and dogs? These trivial matters are taken care of by the eunuch, you have to If I want to make fun of the cat when I am free, let him carry it directly for you.”
Tao Ti was happy when she heard it, “This is great, and you can poke the cat without shoveling shit.”
Linglong did not delay, and immediately went to Siyuan.
Tao Ti returned to the hall to sit with the cat in her arms. The cat was very obedient in her arms, and she was not cold, letting her flutter.
After playing with one person and one cat for a long time, suddenly, the cat called aggrieved “meow meow” twice.
Tao Ti was strange, just as Linglong came back with a blue-clad **** who was fifteen or sixteen years old.
Linglong pointed to the little **** and introduced, “Prince Princess, this is the little **** given to us by Si Yuan. As soon as I heard that the princess has a cat, I immediately picked a handy and flexible mind.”
The **** student’s eyebrows are delicate and clever, “The slave Tai Sheng pays homage to the princess, the princess is happy, Jinan… the princess, this cat is hungry.”
“I can tell you are hungry at a glance. It seems that you are really capable.” Tao Ti smiled at Taisheng, “After that, I will trouble you to take care of this cat.”
Tai Sheng was flattered and said, “It is the honor of a slave to do things for the princess. How can you afford to be troubled by the princess.”
Tao Ti didn’t say much, lowered her head and patted the lion cat’s head lightly, “I’m hungry, then you stay obedient, and I’ll fry the dried fish for you.”
Kitty seemed to understand what she meant, and called “meow” a few times.
Tao Ti asked Linglong to hold the cat and Tai Sheng to make a cat litter, while she went to the restaurant to fry small fish.
The Yushanfang is full of fresh big fish, there is no such kind of dried fish for cats; the small dried fish for small cats was brought from Si Yuan when Tai Sheng came.
From these small details, Tao Ti could see that the little **** was smart enough to be useful.
Make food for the cat, don’t need to be meticulous, simply handle it, the fire will boil the hot oil, and drop the small whitebaits that are as thin as bamboo leaves, only to hear the hot oil tumbling, and the fish is fried. The scent suddenly came out.
The kitten in Linglong’s arms smelled the scent and meowed in excitement.
Linglong hugged it and smiled, “Don’t worry, you will have something to eat later.”
Tai Sheng sniffed and sighed, “Don’t say it’s the cat, even I am greedy when I sniff it, this fish is really delicious.”
Linglong pursed her lips and smiled, “Where is this? Our prince concubine’s cooking skills are very good. If she cooks the food seriously, the fragrance will be greedy! You wait, remember to look for it when the time comes. A kerchief to hold your saliva.”
Tai Sheng didn’t believe it very much in his heart, but he agreed with Linglong’s words on the face.
Soon, Tao Ti came over with a small bowl of dried fish. The dried fish was crispy and golden when fried. Not to mention, the appearance was greedy.
“Little cat, come over and have dinner.”
Tao Ti put the bowl on the ground, and the kitten immediately ran over with two short legs and started to eat.
As the sun sets, the afterglow of the setting sun covers the sky.
Under the orange-yellow and burgundy glow, a girl in a magnolia dress squatted, with a gentle and delicate side face, a faint smile on her lips, her black eyes hanging down, and she quietly looked at the snow-white little girl. The cat eats dried fish.
When Pei Yan stepped into the Yaoguang Hall, he saw a peaceful and harmonious scene when he entered his eyes, and his steps were not consciously relaxed.
Tao Ti was fascinated by the cat eating, until a deep golden and cold voice rang above his head, “Ati, where did the cat come from?”
She was taken aback, raised her small head, and was a little relieved when she saw that it was Pei Yan.
Looking at Pei Yan from this angle, his jaw line is becoming clearer and more distinct. It is really a three-hundred-sixty-degree immortal face with no dead ends——
After sighing secretly, Tao Ti remembered to answer, “My mother came to see me this afternoon. She gave me this.”
Pei Yan raised his eyebrows and said lightly, “This way…”
After waiting for a while, seeing Tao Ti didn’t mean to stand up, he pursed his lips.
When I saw him in the past, she greeted him happily, but at this moment, they were all talking, and she didn’t get up to welcome him into the hall…
Didn’t you have time to talk to him and let him come in by himself?
After pondering for a moment, he took the initiative, “Ati, let the cat eat slowly, shall we go in?”
Tao Ti, “…well, good.”
After a pause, she looked at him with big watery eyes, with a trace of embarrassment on her face.
Pei Yan, “What’s the matter?”
Is it still reluctant to bear this cat?
Tao Ti, “My legs seem to be numb.”
Pei Yan, “…”
After a while, he laughed lowly, his chest trembling.
Tao Ti was both embarrassed and wronged, “…you still laugh.”
“Okay, stop laughing, I’ll help you.”
Pei Yan bent down and stretched out two hands towards her.
Tao Ti thought he was going to pull her up, but he didn’t expect him to hold her legs with one hand, and put his arm around her back with the other hand, and hugged her directly.
Tao Ti was suddenly hugged by the princess, “???”
Just… crazy heartbeat!
She stared at the man’s clear and delicate side face, her lips couldn’t help but frantically rose, and her cheeks became hot again.
When her sanity recovered, she had been carried on the couch.
Pei Yan sat down, gently squeezed her calf with her slender hand, her long eyelashes were slightly drooping, and asked, “Are you still numb? I’ll rub it for you.”
Tao Tifen blushed and whispered, “It’s okay.”
Pei Yan squeezed her leg, the two chatted a few words, and the topic turned back to the cat.
Hearing that Tao Ti decided to raise it, Pei Yan had no objection, and asked her, “Did you think about a name for this cat?”
Tao Ti shook her head and said, “I am waiting for you to come back and think about it together.”
So the two seriously considered the cat’s name together.
Linglong and Fu Xirui stood on one side, seeing the masters discussing the cat’s name seriously, they couldn’t help but glance at each other–
With this kind of enthusiasm, people who don’t know thought they were naming Xiaohuangsun?
Finally, Tao Ti thought of the pastry shop he was about to open, patted his thigh, and made a decision, “It’s a good sign, why don’t you call it Yuanbao?”
Pei Yan smiled casually, “It’s okay.”
I named the cat. Seeing that it was getting dark outside, Tao Ti thought of the marinated ingredients in the kitchen and stood up and said, “Your Majesty, sit down first, I will cook two dishes in the small kitchen, and I will be able to eat later. NS.”
Waiting for her to leave, Pei Yan planned to go to the study to practice handwriting. Just about to get up, he accidentally brought a soft pillow with his hand.
He cast his eyes down casually, and saw a book revealing under the soft pillow.
Pei Yan thought to himself, why did that little silly bug put the script under his pillow? When you can’t find it, you have to worry about it.
He bent over, reached out and pulled out the booklet.
“”Pinhua Baojian”……?”
Pei Yan squinted slightly, turned straight to the page with the folding marks, and saw that the chapter back said——
“The sixth time, in the Chu Niang Fragrant Hall. Seeing Chu Niang, Cui Shusheng was exasperated. He stepped forward and put his arms around her slender waist, pressed her face against Jiaojiao’s face, screamed, kissed, and was a wonderful person. So did Chu Niang. A witty, glamorous, pink-faced pink, just touch him with your hands…”
Pei Yan closed the booklet “pop”, his temples suddenly jumped, his eyes darkened a bit.
