My Fantastic Chef Wife - Chapter 411
She never expected to be so long apart from them.
Do they know she is still alive?
If they knew, then they would find a way to save her.
All I can do now is wait.
…
In the palace, Empress Xiao almost forgot Ye Xiaoxian’s existence.
Until that day, several eunuchs in the palace were talking about eating last night.
An **** said: “Last night, the father-in-law of Yixiu Palace went to the palace and brought six roasted whole lambs back, but it was not enough for us. That roasted whole lamb ate my mouth full of oil and I wanted to eat .”
“Six aren’t enough for you to share? You have enough food.”
“Don’t you ever eat it? Roasted whole lamb in Yingfeng Restaurant, I heard that it is the most famous dish in Shangcheng now. It can only be bought in line. People originally only dine in, only people in the palace can buy it back. Eat at home.”
“I… Alas, I have eaten, but I have only eaten two bites. They are not addictive. I don’t know what it is like to eat Liu at once.”
“…”
At the age of Queen Mother Xiao, she doesn’t like to eat these grilled things, and it is easy to get angry. These young eunuchs are young and their mouths are normal, so she does not care too much.
I was about to walk to the palace palace, but heard the noise and the sound of broken dishes.
There was also a cursed voice of the little emperor: “I just don’t like to eat this, what should I do? You cooks are all waste, and there is nothing that is delicious.”
The Queen Mother Xiao took two steps to enter the palace gate.
The court **** inside saw her coming in and couldn’t help but kneel down together.
Although the little emperor coveted the empress dowager, but because she was in a bad mood, she was also embarrassed.
“Children have seen his mother!” The little emperor reluctantly gave the empress Xiao a salute.
“My little ancestor, what’s wrong with you?” Empress Xiao looked at the mess.
The little emperor was only ten years old this year. It was the age of rebellion. In addition, when the emperor was under pressure, he usually had no playmates to talk with, so he looked a bit gloomy.
“Motherhood, it’s been cold recently, and Erchen’s appetite is not good, but the kitchen always makes these soups and water, and Erchen doesn’t like to eat these.”
Empress Xiao is such a son. She is also very spoiled on weekdays. She can’t help but say: “These are nutritious and help you grow taller. You have to eat if you don’t like to eat.”
The little emperor was not happy.
Why?
He has to learn so many things every day, read so many books, and have to stay up early in the morning. Isn’t it enough to eat what he wants?
The queen mother looked at the unhappy face of the little emperor. She thought about it and thought so too.
Although the emperor was in front of him, he was a child in his twenties. Like a child of his age, he never liked to eat these light things.
She somehow thought of the roast lamb that the eunuchs were talking about when she came.
These things, she only allowed him to eat during the holiday, usually not allowed to eat.
Now seeing the grievance of the little emperor, she recruited A Zhao, who was waiting for her subordinates.
“I heard that there is a Yingfeng restaurant in Shangjing City. The roasted whole lamb inside is particularly delicious. You will go out and buy one for the emperor.”
A Zhao left the palace immediately.
Because of the purpose of the Queen Mother, Azhao is also a man in the palace. This roasted whole sheep was bought back in less than half an hour.
The queen mother is still in the little emperor’s bedroom.
The dishes that the little emperor lost his temper just now have been cleaned up. The incense from the south is lit in the house, and the air inside is very good.
The Queen Mother Xiao accompanied the little emperor to read, and refused to waste a minute and a second.
The little emperor read a little absent-mindedly, and he kept talking about roast sheep.
So, as soon as the lamb came, he threw down the books and looked at the delicious lamb brought back by A Zhao.
Therefore, he is either not hungry or too picky.
As soon as A Zhao put the roasted lamb up, the little emperor hurriedly said, “Cut it away, hurry up!”
Queen Mother Xiao coughed aside twice: “Emperor, Ai Jia usually taught you the etiquette of eating? Have you forgotten all?”
The little emperor had to force himself to “stay”.
But his eyes were still on the lamb.
A Zhao cut the lamb, and then handed one of the lamb ribs to the little emperor. The little emperor grabbed it and ate it. After eating a bite, he nodded again and again: “Good, good, I haven’t eaten such delicious food for a long time. This roast lamb is much better than what the cook in the palace made.”
The Queen Mother Xiao saw him willing to eat, so she thought: Well, as long as he is willing to eat.
The little emperor persuaded the empress dowager: “Mother, you should come a little, this roast lamb is really delicious.”
“No need, you eat it yourself,” Xiao said afterwards.
The little emperor spoiled: “It’s just one piece after the mother. Really, you taste it. This taste is much better than the things in the palace.”
The Queen Mother Xiao failed him but had to eat a grilled lamb chops.
In the same way, as soon as she ate her mouth, she felt the aroma was overflowing. Unlike the roast lamb that she had eaten before, she had to use cumin powder to neutralize it before she could taste it.
Cumin powder is prickly, spicy, and very easy to get angry when eaten. Although the Empress Xiao is a native of Beiqing, she does not like it very much.
However, now that she eats the roast sheep in Yingfeng Restaurant, she feels delicious without cumin at all, and this roast sheep has a slight sweet taste, I don’t know if it is added with honey.
She also knew for the first time that roast lamb can be added with honey.
The little emperor saw that the Empress Dowager had eaten, and he was happy in his heart, and the speed of eating was much faster than at the beginning. While eating, he said: “Queen, I said that the food outside the palace is delicious.”
Empress Xiao said: “Delicious is delicious, but don’t forget what your mother taught you. You can’t overdo everything. After all, it’s bad for your health if you eat too much. You don’t want to eat a little bit more. have eaten.”
It is also necessary to understand temperance, and the little emperor was very upset.
From small to large, no matter what he does or eats, his mother can’t give him a happy, litchi from the south tribute, the mother said to eat the fire, the pineapple from the western region, the mother said that eating too much is not good for the body, when he was a child After eating the fried dumplings, the mother also said that her mouth will foam.
He sometimes plays with the maid eunuchs, and the mother will teach those eunuchs, and later he feels wronged, and the mother said that it can be played, but not more than a quarter of an hour. Every time she is playing, she is sent to remind him that in the long run, he give up.
But there is no limit to the length of time a book can be read, and his mother hopes he will read it all day long.
The little emperor is now rebellious, and it is rare to eat delicious roast lamb. He doesn’t want to be tempered anymore and eats a lot of roast lamb chops at once.
The Queen Mother Xiao was originally reminded, but she found that she unknowingly ate two, indicating that this roast lamb is indeed very delicious.
She thought: “Forget it, let the child indulge for a while.”
…
Who knows, the indulgence of Empress Xiao has indulged the emperor’s little temperament.
After all, the emperor is also a child. After eating what he likes to eat, he doesn’t want to eat anything in the palace. Even if the taste of Tiantian Mountain in the palace is rare, he is tired of it.
He knew he shouldn’t be capricious, he should eat what she should have in the palace, but he wanted to restrain himself, but his stomach couldn’t.
In the next few days, every time he had a meal, he was listless, and the next food he served came to him, he didn’t want to eat every bite.
Empress Xiao not only has to deal with the state affairs, but also cares about her son’s health. When the son grows up, the learning tasks are heavy and he only has to eat a few bites a day, wherever he can.
During the meal time that day, she went to accompany the little emperor for dinner. When she saw that the little emperor was eating lazily again, the rice was eaten slowly, and almost a grain of rice was stuffed into her mouth, and she was a little angry.
“Ye’er, can you have a good meal?” Xiao Empress asked.
The little emperor was afraid that his mother would be angry, so she sat down and sipped her meal seriously, but did not move those dishes.
There are many delicate side dishes on the table now, including meat, fish, and vegetables, but the little emperor just put a little bit of it in his mouth, and he couldn’t afford to eat at all.
Empress Xiao gave a prompt: “Why isn’t it delicious?”
The little emperor put another pair of chopsticks into the mouth and steamed the fish, but after just chewing for two days, he “vomited” a bit, obviously he didn’t want to eat these things.
The empress dowager was angry, she had to deal with so many things every day, and she had to accompany the little emperor to study, but the little emperor did not even worry about her even eating.
She suddenly dropped her chopsticks on the table and said again: “It seems that the emperor is not hungry. Remove all the food. When will the emperor be hungry and when will he open the meal.”
The Queen Mother Xiao thought that there are still so many poor people in the people who can’t even eat enough food, but the emperor is so spoilt for food, it seems that he is really not hungry, just hungry for a few meals.
Who knows, the little emperor didn’t even feel hungry, he was really hungry, he could solve the problem of hunger by eating some snacks, and he also happily ate snacks.
The Empress Dowager was worried about the body of the little emperor, and finally had to compromise like all mothers in the world: OK, eat whatever you like, but only if things are healthy.
Since the little emperor liked the food outside the palace, she simply asked the cook outside the palace to come into the palace.
…
Yingfeng Restaurant.
That day, Ye Xiaoxian was still busy in the kitchen.
Since she came, she was responsible for roasting whole sheep in the back kitchen. With roasting whole sheep as the main business, the business of Yingfeng Restaurant was much better, and Zhu Bin let her concentrate on roasting sheep.
Ye Xiaoxian did not have the opportunity to show her other unique skills, just, she is new, or low-key, try not to show her skills.
While the sheep were roasting, Zhu Bin was here.
Zhu Bin seldom comes to the kitchen. His approach to the guys is to use people without doubt, not to use suspects, and is only responsible for accounting and doing some ideological work for the guys.
So guys all listen to him.
When Zhu Bin came, the cook was surprised.
And Zhu Bin has a serious face, and looks very serious.
