"Miss, please try this Longjing shrimp. Is it delicious?" Xiao Ru helped her prepare the dishes very attentively.
"The taste is light and sweet, with the fragrance of tea and the freshness and sweetness of shrimp. It's very good! You can't tell, Xiaoru, your craftsmanship has greatly improved."
Shen Ning took a bite of the shrimp and pinched Xiao Ru's red apple face in praise.
Xiaoru's face was even more excited, and he helped her carry another dish.
"Miss, try this brown sugar cake again."
"Not bad, crispy and fragrant, sweet but not greasy." Shen Ning's favorite food was this fragrant cake, and she ate two pieces in one go.
Xiao Si stood nearby, swallowing hard when looking at the dishes on the table.
Shen Ning saw it and smiled and said: "Xiao Ru, take these two dishes to Xiao Si. Xiao Si, you don't have to be polite. You must be hungry after a long day, so take them and eat them."
Xiao Si was overjoyed and hurriedly stepped forward to take it and said, "Thank you, Queen!"
In front of Shen Ning, he didn't dare to sit on the chair, so he sat on the threshold with two plates of dishes and started to eat. He was full of praises and shouted: "It's delicious, it's so delicious." "
Xiao Ru saw this and laughed so hard that her eyes were bent. She poured a cup of tea and handed it to Xiaosi: "Xiaosi, don't just eat the food. Take a sip of tea. Be careful of choking. Slow down. No need to eat. It’s so urgent, as long as you like to eat it, you can eat it anytime in the future.”
Xiao Si stuffed a mouthful of food and spoke slurred: "This dish is so delicious, Xiao Ru, your cooking skills are so good. Whoever marries you in the future will have a lifetime of delicious food." "
"Bah, who wants to get married! If you keep talking nonsense, I won't let you eat anymore!"
Xiao Ru couldn't help but blush, spat at him, and turned back to serve Shen Ning for dinner.
"Miss, do you like today's food?" she asked with bright eyes.
"I like it, I like it very much, but there is one bad thing."
"Ah? What's wrong?" The smile on Xiao Ru's face disappeared immediately.
Shen Ning smiled and said: "If you cook me such delicious dishes every day, you will make me fat in a few days. That will not be good. The emperor will not like a woman who is as fat as a pig, right? no?"
Xiao Ru exhaled, patted her chest and said, "Miss, you are really scared to death. So, you like to eat such dishes?"
"Of course." Shen Ning smiled and nodded.
"That's great. In that case, she can stay." Xiaoru suddenly beamed.
"Why can she stay?" Shen Ning was confused.
Xiao Ru smiled and said: "She is the cook who makes these dishes. Miss, you mean to agree to keep her, right?"
Shen Ningqi asked: "Cook? Are you saying that these dishes were not made by you, but by someone else?"
"Yes, yes, the food prepared by this servant cannot compare to hers. She is the cook sent by the Queen Mother. Don't you know, Miss?"
Shen Ning immediately remembered that Mo Chuan had indeed mentioned it.
She smiled and said: "This cook's cooking skills are indeed good, and it was sent by the Queen Mother, so just stay here. We will be blessed in the future."
Xiao Ru clapped her hands with joy and shouted: "Great, great! She was worried that the eldest lady wouldn't like it, so she hid and didn't dare to show her face. Hey, Qianqian, did you hear that? The eldest lady has promised to let you stay. Come on, why don’t you come out and meet the eldest lady!”
