My Fantastic Chef Wife - Chapter 416
Since these days, A Zhao has been with the queen mother, and she also knows the preferences of the queen mother and the little emperor. Before the queen mother had only one dietary requirement: do not fry too much.
Basically, what the back cook does, she eats what she eats.
But now she likes to eat Ye Xiaoxian’s food.
Not to mention the little emperor, as long as it is not Ye Xiaoxian’s food, he will not eat at all.
However, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, he couldn’t let Ye Xiaoxian only cook dishes for the Empress Dowager and the Little Emperor.
So, he asked the queen mother to see if Ye Xiaoxian could be the head chef and let others taste the things Ye Xiaoxian did. In this way, there will be surprises this Mid-Autumn Festival, and he can also make a contribution.
The queen mother agreed without thinking.
She was not afraid of being tired of Ye Xiaoxian, but just wanted to see how much energy Ye Xiaoxian, the general lady, had.
When A Zhao informed Ye Xiaoxian, Ye Xiaoxian did not refute.
She asked carefully. The total number of people at the dinner was about two hundred people. The food for the two hundred people was not made by her alone. She had a kitchen assistant, so she only needed to direct her.
So, A Zhao happily gave Ye Xiaoxian the cooking.
On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Empress Xiao set up a banquet in the palace. There were many relatives and relatives, as well as ministers and officials.
But Ye Xiaoxian was busy in the back kitchen and did not go to the front hall.
After all the meals were served, she made a few months of cakes with the remaining ingredients.
People in Beiqing also eat moon cakes, but most of their fillings are lotus seed paste, and Ye Xiaoxian makes five kernels. Daqi only eats like this. Dongdong and Xiaoxia also like to eat them.
After making the moon cakes, she took the dish of moon cakes to the back garden, and sat alone on the disc while enjoying the moon cakes while enjoying the moon.
Of course, she didn’t know that the people in the front hall were surprised when they ate her meals.
Beiqing is rugged by nature, and the style of food is also like. I like to eat wine in a big bowl and eat meat in a big bowl. But they are also surprised to see such exquisite side dishes here this year.
These people are not short of meat. They eat meat at home and eat meat outside. If the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner still eats big meat, it is inevitable that there is no newness, and it is only done once.
But the food tonight was so delicate that they had to focus part of their attention on the food, to see the shape of the food, to taste the taste of the food, and then praise it.
Empress Xiao and A Zhao saw everyone’s reaction and knew they liked the food, so they were very satisfied.
…
Ye Xiaoxian was eating moon cakes while watching the moon in the back garden, thinking about Dongdong and Xiaoxia.
Unpredictable, a voice came from behind: “Are you five moon cakes?”
Ye Xiaoxian was taken aback, and then turned back, and saw a forty-year-old Wei An man, who was very expensive and a little cold.
Ye Xiaoxian wanted to put the moon cakes away, but knew it was late.
Now that he had seen it, she simply handed one of the moon cakes to the person in front of him: “Yes, Wuren’s, do you want to try one?”
The man’s eyes stayed on the moon cake for a second or two, then he took it over and said to Ye Xiaoxian: “Thank you!”
“You’re welcome.”
Ye Xiaoxian thought that this man wouldn’t eat it, but he thought of the moon cake as a baby. He took a small bite first, tasted it, then took a big bite.
Then he swallowed as if he had been hungry for a long time. At the end of the meal, his eyes were full of tears.
“You… slow down, don’t choke.” Ye Xiaoxian felt that he must not have been hungry for a long time, but felt that he must be persuaded.
The man licked his fingers after eating.
Ye Xiaoxian quickly handed him another moon cake, and then said to him: “I still have it here, do you want it?”
The man took the moon cake, but this time he did not rush to eat, but said to her: “You have not answered my question.”
“Wh… what’s the problem?” Ye Xiaoxian asked.
“Are you a big prayer?”
“No.” Ye Xiaoxian lied.
The man said: “I am a big prayer.”
Ye Xiaoxian: “…”
“So, I know you are also a big prayer.”
“…” Ye Xiaoxian felt that she had been debunked, and she did not admit it, so she assumed the default.
“Why are you here?” the man asked again.
Ye Xiaoxian asked him back: “What about you? Why are you here?”
“I was caught.” The man was very sincere.
Ye Xiaoxian looked around, there was no one around, and their conversation should not be heard by the third person.
So she asked, “Are you caught? Why don’t you get locked up, but come out and run everywhere?”
“Because I’m a Gunma.” The man said again: “My name is Li Yujin.”
“Lie surnamed Li?” Ye Xiaoxian knew that the person praying to the royal family was the surname Li, so he asked: “Are you a royal child of Daqi?”
“Daqi is now Li Chengru as emperor, right?” Li Yu asked: “Do you know him?”
Ye Xiaoxian asked, “Who are you Li Chengru?”
“It’s an uncle,” Li Yu said sincerely.
Ye Xiaoxian was a little surprised, and then he oh, and then asked: “Then why are you here? How did you become a junma?”
“I stayed in Beiqing for more than 20 years. I used to be a proton. Later in the civil strife in Beiqing, my elder brother became the emperor. I seem to have been forgotten. In addition to changing the emperor twice later, I am afraid that the royal family will have forgotten long ago. I’m such a proton.”
“Twenty years?” Ye Xiaoxian was a little surprised, and she asked again: “Then Li Chengru was only a few years old at that time, he might not remember your emperor?”
Li Yu asked: “Sounds like, you know Li Chengru very well? When did you arrive in Beiqing?”
Ye Xiaoxian did not trust Li Yujin very much, so he said: “I have been here for a few months. I also heard about Li Chengru. As a people of Daqi, which one does not know him?”
Li Yujin looked at Ye Xiaoxian and smiled lightly: “No, you should know him and be familiar.”
“…” Ye Xiaoxian thought, did you see it all?
Li Yujin did not continue to question, but looked up at the bright moon in the sky: “This moon does not change every year, but I am getting older from year to year. I am afraid that I will return to pray in this life.”
Ye Xiaoxian knew that he was homesick. He didn’t go back for more than 20 years. He must have missed his hometown. No wonder he just ate moon cakes so quickly that his tears shed.
However, she still asked him: “You just said, you are Lord Shima?”
Li Yujin nodded.
“Since it’s the Lord of the County, you must have formed a family here. Is your county leader… how are you?” Ye Xiaoxian asked.
Li Yujin looked at Ye Xiaoxian and asked again: “Are you trying to persuade me to cherish the people before you?”
Ye Xiaoxian nodded.
