Guxuan continued to howl like a distressed wolf At thatYun appeared They quickly ventured over to greet hiht that after Elder Madam's visit, Master would not be able to come any more”
”How could I?” In front of these two xuan felt that he had to nity He waved his fan lazily, but a tinge of desperate hunger glea for so Lian was slance at hiht Treasure Rice[1] is done, as for the Fried Tripe[2], this maid's hand is too inco sauce properly This s your pardon, but could Missy handle this part personally? Also, this maid has noticed that the White Sealed Meat has been properly cooled doould Missy like to have it tonight?”
”What?” Duan Tingxuan juave a nasty ses, so it's Eight Treasure Rice Fried Tripe? White Sealed Meat? And just what are those things? Also, dipping sauce? Has to be eaten with a dipping? These are all things I've never eaten before You have been keeping a lot fro you think that I have been locked away, it's almost certain that I would never be able to eat any of these Nuan Nuan that's too xuan's spittle continue to fly Though his face has 'Grief and Indignation' written all over it, Su Nuan Nuan continued to block her ears against his grievances She glared at Hong Lian with gritted teeth, ”You did this deliberately, you bunch of brats definitely did this deliberately, didn't you?”
Hong Lian showed a surprised expression, ”What deliberately? Didn't Missy said to inform you e have finished with the meal preparations?”
”You…fine, I did ainst outside enemies only to be back stabbed by my own people” Su Nuan Nuan's face was even blacker than theto himself about the unfairness of the world She twisted back to shout bad teht Treasure Rice or Fried Tripe, I won't even let you see a single grain of rice”
”As long as you feed ry Su Nuan Nuan He sed and hungrily made his way into the kitchen
One rice and two side dishes, in the end Su Nuan Nuan even ar Bamboo Stir Fry[4] and added a duck bones soup[5] for their eveningshabby, h his status had suffered a critical blow
Whenever Duan Tingxuan ate within the Inner Court, there were usually no less than seven to eight dishes on the table How could these dishes match up to a marquis' status? Even when it came to the staple food, there were usually fresh steamed flower buns[6] or plain stea like in Mei Yue Lou, with only these few dishes in front of him, it was just too sad
Nevertheless, this small spread in front of the marquis caused his eyes to brim with tears of happiness
When Su Nuan Nuan sat down opposite him, he felt like a child whose candy had been nearly, but not quite, snatched away by an adult In a whispery voice, he said, ”This is too wonderful, two extra dishes, and even a duck soup I've been to your place so many times, this is the first time you've laid out such a spread As expected, you've beenover, you only cook a set kicked out froall over her body She narrowed her eyes and gritted her teeth as she snatched a piece of White Sealed Meat with her chopsticks and duxuan's bowl ”You're a fancyto wear thin silk in this weather, even the east wind is picking up now Do you actually like to suffer at my place? Eat quickly, I hate it when even food won't stop up a person's mouth”
This was actually the first time Su Nuan Nuan personally put food into his bowl Wait, no, he should say this was the first time Su Nuan Nuan personally put food in his bowl in Mei Yue Lou
Duan Tingxuan's heart briratitude In his entire memory, this kind of pure happiness were not many He quickly snatched up the htfully, he said in surprise, ”This is not any old chilled pork M Lian called this White Sealed Meat, just how is itabout how things are made So what if you know the recipe, do you think you can xuan have a bad habit of asking about things he ate, even though he had no intention of h he acted like a curious baby, Su Nuan Nuan found this habit uncute
”Tomorroill be the 12th, in a few days it will be time to collect rent Some of it will come from the coastal area so there will be fresh seafood Why don't you have a look and see what you like? Take anything you like back” Duan Tingxuan obligingly stopped asking, and tactfully switched the subject into soourhtened She had transrated to this place for a few h the river fishes and pond creatures were a plenty However, she was still suspicious, ”Since the weather is so hot, won't the seafood becoave her a e, lined with quilt and half filled with ice, and keeping the fish and shrie jars filled with seawater, not only will they reach the court intact, most will actuallya little bewildered This is a co at me with those eyes?
She soon knew the answer
Duan Tingxuan picked up a piece of tripe with his chopsticks, dipped it into a sauce made out of sesame oil, sesame paste, chives, so before delivering the delicious morsel into his mouth He nodded as he smacked his lips, then shook his head as he meditated over its taste, ”Tender yet crunchy, delicious, the flavour just lingers in one's ood dish to have ine”
He suddenly changed the subject With a little he-he laugh, he said ”Nuan Nuan, you've always loved seafood the best Every year when it's time for to collect the tribute, you'll always personally oversee the process In fact, this ht up by you At that tiry, said that your behaviour was just too extravagant Well? Have you forgotten this?”
This bastard, so this was the trap he had set up Su Nuan Nuan scolded herself privately in her heart, she realised nohy Duan Tingxuan had been looking at her with those weird eyes For Su Meng Nuan to coet about a special seafood transport ht up was certainly suspicious
