Duan Tingxuan sation to show filial responsibility, what need is there for thanks? Your grandson cannot accept these words” As he spoke, he eyed the table full of food, and immediately instructed pointed out a few dishes that the Old Great Madam did not like ”Take these few dishes away, prepare a space for me”
The servants knew that the young master intends to show intended to express his filial consideration; thus two or three maids immediately came up with smiles on their faces to clear away the dishes that Old Madaxuan turned and beckoned, Si Ping, Shuang Xi, Hong Lian and Xiang Yun cae food boxes on the table and removed the lids
It turned out that each food box only contained one type of dish Four person, therefore four types of dishes Axuan had especially requested for The other three was left to Su Nuan Nuan to decide, even he did not knohat the food boxes would reveal
Though there were only four dishes, the young master had actually spent a lot of effort to obtain the to persuade Su Nuan Nuan toto show her ed to extort over ten types of ingredients fro of Mei Yue Lou
The pitiful young master who had always lived in the lap of luxury was forced to ca Su Nuan Nuan naturally did not bother to give him any of her own bedclothes since he was the one who refused to leave In the end, he and Si Ping spent the night on the hard stone kang [1] on so to ht of that, his body was almost as stiff as a corpse
Though he had suffered, in the end the prince felt that it was all worth it Though Su Nuan Nuan had warned hiain to not open the boxes or to peek in, whichthe food However, Hong Lian swore up and doith a hand on her chest that Big Madaotten up before dawn to start the preparation Towards this steady and even texuan felt he could still trust her As for that Xiang Yun, he could see that she had turned as treacherous as herLian still retained her steadiness as the head maid, and had not allowed her ownpicture
Therefore, the curious ones today weren't only the rest of the faxuan himself was curious too Just what did Su Nuan Nuan made today? Because he breathed in too loudly, all eyes were on him as he carefully removed the lid of one of the bowls A sudden cloud of cold air wafted up, at a closer look, a large pile of white thing drizzled with pale yellow and red was revealed As expected, this was nothing they had ever seen before
As he leaned in to study itLian started her explanation ”Our Missy said that this is called a 's down ice blocks into fine pieces, milk is added first to the white part, cantaloupe juice, apricot juice and peach juice are added for sweetness On top of that, there are the bearded gourds sent by the master yesterday, which madam really liked and had used two to make this dish All that effort resulted in this one bowl only Since today is so hot, Missy said that it's the best time to eat it Only, Old Madae Just a bit to whet stimulate the appetite for other food”
The 'bearded guard' was actually ion had brought a few dozen baskets of these as tribute The eranted twenty basket as reward to his officers An Ping palace also received two baskets as a reward for their s, and therefore really loved eating these
Yesterday, when he had gone to Mei Yue Lou to beg for gourht a few of these as offerings, hoping to aim at her weak point Looked like the result was really worth it This bowl of sh the rich already had a habit of eating ice during the su ice to wine or sweetened water He had never seen people eat ice this way before
As expected, theappear, a sparkle lit up the Old Madam's eyes The children around the their lips Children are always interested in new things, especially for such a novel, delicious looking thing There were not many who could endure the temptation
I scooped out a small bowl of the treat and handed it to the old lady Unable to wait, the Old Madam took a spoonful and placed it in herthe flavour She nodded and praised ”Delicious, very delicious There's the fragrance of apricots, the sweet taste of cantaloupes and bearded gourds Also the creauised the sharpness of the ice The moment I s it, all that pesky heat just disappears Very delicious, but who made it? Who was the one who made the effort to make such an elaborate dessert?”
