Imperial Chef Rookie - Chapter 13
This night I slept soundly and had a sweet dream. The princess was sleeping beside me and was calling my name gently:
“Now…Now…I miss you.”
“Princess, I miss you too~ Although it’s only been a day, I still miss you so much, I will be back soon…”
Let me babble, turn over and grab her hand, huh, how is her hand different from before? Why is it so big? Still so rough, how come there are cocoons?
…………
So I tried my best to open my eyes, trying to determine whether it was a dream or a real one. If this is a dream, the hand in the dream feels too real.
But when I opened my eyes, I was stunned. At the moment, there was a big man’s face in front of me, ten centimeters away from me. His eyes were glaring like two bells. Look at me the same.
I slowed my mind before I recognized the owner of this face. Who was Xu Mo in front of me?
At the same time, a thick male voice passed into my ears: “How long will you still hold my hand and touch it?”
I jumped out of bed quickly, three feet away from him, and looked at him in horror.
“You what are you doing? How did you come in?”
“What am I going to do? It’s getting better now, Master Lin told me to wake you up, and I’ll be here. Who knows you are still asleep, and as soon as I call you, you turn over and grab my hand, By the way, you still talk about dreams, who do you miss? Who do you miss?”
“Uh… it doesn’t matter, the master told me to do it, then I have to hurry up, Xu Mo, thank you for coming to call me, I’m gone, we’re destined to see you again.”
He said that I quickly put on my clothes, put on my shoes and ran away, leaving Xu Mo alone in the room.
I knew that I was late and hurried to the master in a hurry, running out of breath.
“Master, Master, Master, I’m sorry I’m late,” I gasped heavily.
“You still know that I will come and invite you in a little while, okay, just follow me to the kitchen.”
“Yes…Master” I knew I was justified, so I had to listen to the Master’s dispatch.
When we came to the kitchen, the master told me to wash my hands and make some preparations. After everything was ready, he began to speak.
“This state banquet has always been under the control of the Minister of Food and Beverage Management. This time the emperor gave it to you, it must be extremely trusting you and sure of your cooking skills. You don’t have to worry too much about the rest of the dishes. It’s all set, since they’re the people who do it underneath, all you have to do is order it. And all you have to do is create innovative dishes. Today, I will teach you a dish first. This selection says…”
I listened very carefully to the dishes the master taught me, and took notes with paper and pen.
The time of study always passed quickly. I practiced while listening. In the blink of an eye, it was the afternoon.
After dinner, I suddenly remembered the small purple leaf sandalwood comb I had ordered at that jewelry shop three days ago, and decided to get it back.
I walked into the shop. When the boss saw me coming, he walked happily in front of me.
“Son, you are finally here. I have been here waiting for your driving since the morning.”
“Why are you more excited than me?” I saw that the shop owner was obviously anxious than me.
“Isn’t this trying to let the son see the finished product sooner? The idea of the son is really good. The things made in this way are really beautiful.”
“By the way, the boss we can say that. This thing is made by me. I have already paid out the money. Can you do the same for others, understand?”
“Yes, I promised my son that there will never be a comb with the same pattern. If you find this second comb in Beijing, the shop will pay ten times the compensation, no, twenty times the compensation, how? Son, let’s check the goods first, please.”
I was very satisfied with his answer. I followed him to the counter and saw that he took out an ebony box from the counter and took out the comb that I customized for the princess.
I saw that the comb was extremely beautiful, with a reddish-brown color throughout. The pattern was generally wavy and accompanied by other patterns. It was beautiful, and the most eye-catching thing was not the comb itself, but the one I asked the shopkeeper to engrave on one side. Taolin and a red bean, the leaves of the peach wood are decorated with turquoise, and a little “Zhen” is written on the petals.
There is a cloud in the Book of Songs: “Peach Zhi Yao Yao, scorching its blossoms. The son should return to his family.
Tao Zhiyao, there is a lot of money. The son should return to his family.
Peach is Yaoyao, and its leaves are Zhenzhen. The son should return to his family. ”
I think her name should be taken like this, and the meaning of the red bean is: “Linglong dice An Hongdou, I don’t know if I am in love.”
Coupled with this long-lasting comb that symbolizes a long-lasting conscience, I promise to us all the best wishes in the world, only wishing to live with her forever, Baishou will not leave.
I was very satisfied with the comb, paid the rest to the shopkeeper, picked up the comb and returned to the master.
When I went back, it was already dark. After another day of exhaustion, I placed the box like a treasure on the pillow, and fell asleep with a sweet dream.
In this way, the day of learning cooking with the master is repeated for nearly two weeks. Sometimes the princess will come to see me in person and bring some delicious food for me, but most of the time the kite comes to give me something.
That morning, I received a letter from Wei Qi, saying that he had returned, and there was still a surprise for me. I was asked to see me at the old place at noon, and I knew it.
I always feel that this kid must have something to hide from me. After so many years of brothers, I still play these children’s games with me.
But I still arrived at the Juxiang Pavilion on time. Xuan’er has always been here to help, so I live here. When Xu Mo came over last time, I asked him not to tell Xuan’er what I was doing at the master. He didn’t say that, so Xuan’er always thought I was in the palace.
“Brother Xuan’er, you really came. The big brother who was drinking tea with you last time was upstairs, and he said you will definitely come.” She was still very excited when she saw me, and she blushed. .
I dare not think if she knew that I had been with the master for more than two weeks, would she go crazy?
I quickly avoided her and said, “Yes, of course I have to come. Is Wei Qi already here? Then I will go upstairs first, Xuan’er, we will talk later.” After all, I already have a princess, and it is really not suitable for any other disputes with any woman, including Xuan’er.
I turned my head to see her frustrated face, and I couldn’t bear it, but…
“Xuan’er, you are a good girl and will definitely meet better people.”
After resolutely turning back upstairs, I entered Weiqi’s well-appointed room and heard a voice inside. One voice came from Weiqi, and the other was so familiar…
“This voice… yes, it’s my mother!”
I hurriedly pushed open the door and saw that the person inside was indeed her. She was still dressed the same, with plain clothes, but there was a lot of white hair on her head, and there were more fine wrinkles on her face.
Although my mother is a civilian, she is no worse than the young lady of the big family in this upbringing etiquette. She also has a temperament of knowledge and courtesy. It is only that I haven’t asked her to worry about her in recent years. .
As soon as I saw her, I couldn’t restrain myself, and the tears fell down, and I knelt before her.
“Mother, the child is not filial, so I haven’t been back to see you for so long, can you be alright?”
My mother was very excited to see me like this. She wiped her tears and said:
“Where did you go there, don’t send a letter to Niang for half a year? Do you know that Niang thinks you are going crazy? Get up, what are you doing on your knees? You haven’t done this time Eat well? They have lost a lot of weight.” She said that she lifted me up and let me sit on the chair, and then looked at me from above with a distressed eye.
“Mother, I’m wrong, forgive Youer. I was going to go back to see you after this busy time. Why did you come here in person?” I wiped the tears off my face and held my mother’s hand.
My mother glanced at Wei Qi, and then said to me: “It’s not the kid who said that you miss me so much, telling me to come over and take a good look at you, plus the mother who really misses you, then Come here.”
I looked very grateful to Wei Qitou. He gave me a polite smile. Really good brother, I know too much~
“Gang Niang, I am so happy that I saw your mother and son meet again. I heard that you have been busy these days, why not let Gan Niang live with me. How about I take care of her elderly for you first?”
“Is it appropriate to live with you? Will it bother you?” I was worried that Wei Qi would cause some trouble.
“I have just been sealed by the Emperor as the fifth grade Hanlin Xiu Xiu, and I have given my mansion and rewarded me with two silvers. After saying the exam, I must honor the goddess. You are both my good brother and the goddess is mine. Dear mother, what is the point of letting her live with me? It happened that I also took my father and mother together, and they also have a companion with each other. Wouldn’t it be a good thing? What do you say, godmother?”
It was very gratifying to see my mother nodding frequently. Since she herself is willing, then I have no reason to stop her. So I cast a more grateful look to Wei Qi, and said thank you repeatedly, this brother really didn’t have nothing to do~
“Now, you don’t have to say thank you anymore. Happy tonight, I’m the host. How about let’s get drunk?”
So in the joy and laughter, we ended the feast of reunion. I accompanied my mother to Wei Qi’s house. After she was settled, we said something between mother and daughter and we were ready to go back to the master.
Just when I was about to leave, Wei Qi stopped me behind and said:
“Just, wait a moment, I have something to tell you. The goddess has just arrived in this capital city. There are many places that I haven’t been to. You might as well take a day off tomorrow. I’ll accompany you to go out with you how is it?”
“Oh~ Why did you think so thoughtful, Wei Qi, I didn’t even think of it, because there are so many things, I should thank you very well.” I patted his shoulder, and I was so moved that I wanted to cry. This is where the blessings were cultivated in the last life.
“We are good brothers and we are all a family. I don’t know you yet. How can we talk about thank you? Besides, these are what I should do. Okay, it’s getting late. You go back earlier. I will send it tomorrow morning. Someone will pick you up.”
After I thanked him again, he ordered a carriage to take me back.
The carriage slowly walked away, but he did not leave immediately, and stood silently in the doorway, watching the direction of my departure, and a meaningful smile flashed in my eyes. .
“Just, see you tomorrow.”
After he entered the palace, the family slowly closed the door of Weifu.
The author has something to say:
The tail of the fox is a little bit exposed, I didn’t expect you to be such a person~ (these chapters have too many princesses, no drama, but soon came out to sprinkle sugar (dog abuse), welcome all little angels to leave a message~~~ Refill~)
