Changyu looked at the half-eaten meatloaf in his right hand, then at the intact meatloaf in his left hand, and then turned his head to look at the remaining half of the meatloaf in Mingda's hand.
Mingda ignored her, took a bite and walked slowly while eating, Aunt Fan couldn't help muttering from behind: "Eating while walking, how can the princess be so rude?"
Only then did Princess Changyu see Aunt Fan, and said angrily, "Auntie, why did you call the elder brother?"
Aunt Fan explained: "This servant is going to find Aunt Shang, but I ran into His Highness the Crown Prince on the way, and when His Highness asked, I didn't answer."
Aunt Fan is Mingda's nurturing aunt, who has followed her since she was very young, and is regarded as the empress' confidant.
However, Mingda has grown older in the past two years, and she no longer needs her very much. Young girls naturally also like to be with young girls, so Ming Da prefers to use the maids around him.
Aunt Fan also knew that she would be uncomfortable with Mingda, so she has been consciously doing some sewing and managing some trivial matters in the palace. Now she is basically a mascot.
So she didn't know about the secret agreement between Zhou Man and the two princesses, but she followed because Princess Mingda got up early and wanted to go out this morning.
It's spring now, Princess Mingda usually won't leave the gate of the palace at this time, but they actually made it all the way to the gate of the palace.
She didn't say anything after asking, and she didn't know until Zhou Man came that they came here so early just for a bite to eat.
Although Zhou Man is an imperial doctor, she dare not let Princess Mingda eat outside food, and she also knows that Princess Mingda has always had ideas, and the only one who can stop her in this palace is the Empress Empress.
So she was in a hurry to find the empress, but she ran into the prince on the way.
At this time, the prince had already taken the basket to enter the palace, because it was meat pie, and the prince had one in his mouth, no one thought the meat pie was poisonous, so the guards did not stop it.
Everyone watched him go away, then raised their eyelids timidly, and hurriedly checked the things before entering the palace.
The guards looked at Bai Shan and Zhou Man Bai Erlang, reached out to look through their things, saw the bamboo tube hanging on the side of the food box, and signaled Bai Shan to open it.
After seeing the ooze inside, he said, "You can't bring this in either."
Bai Shan simply handed over the food box to Daji, and casually untied a bamboo tube to Liu Huan, "I'll drink it for you."
Liu Huan happily opened the bamboo tube and drank it, "What is this made of? It smells like beans."
"This is what beans are made of," Bai Shan asked, "Soy milk, I made it when I was making tofu. Do you have any?"
Liu Huan was startled, and shook his head, "I have eaten tofu curd, but it was only in the past two years that I ate it again. Why, is this soy milk thinner than bean curd?"
Zhao Liulang thrust the basket heavily in front of them, and after checking, he gave them a sideways look and went in.
Man Bao asked, "What happened to him?"
Bai Erlang doubted: "Is it because I didn't eat the meat pie?"
Liu Huan glanced at the remaining half of the meatloaf, and speeded up his eating.
Bai Shan said: "It doesn't matter, he will be fine in a while."
Man Bao said: "He has no quality, but I have quality, so it's fine if you don't show respect to me, why join my team?"
Lu Yue, who was about to follow behind Zhao Liulang, made a move, even if he was not convinced in his heart, he could only silently wait for them to pass first.
Liu Huan waited for them to finish checking, then drank two sips of soy milk, stuffed the bamboo tube into Daji's hand, and hurried up.
The guards turned a blind eye and pretended not to see their disrespect, but the ministers who were about to enter the palace one after another for the small court meeting did.
Liu Shangshu saw that his grandson who had left early was still lingering at the gate of the palace. Before he could get angry, he saw him eating something into his mouth, and his cheeks bulged.
It was very disrespectful in public.
Liu Shangshu stared, Li Shangshu looked at it and said with a smile: "Liu Shangshu, a boy in his teens is just growing up, so eating early is especially important, so don't treat the child badly."
Old Master Tang also nodded with experience: "Yes, I think the young master is still a little thin, and he should eat more. Look at my Tang He, who has never been short of food since he was a child, and that's why he has grown into such a great man. look."
Liu Shangshu couldn't help snorting, Tang He didn't lack food, so could it be that the Liu family was short of food
That kid obviously ate a basket of steamed stuffed buns and a bowl of porridge for breakfast, how did he know that he was so good at eating now, that he still looked like a starved ghost reincarnated at the gate of the palace
After being angry, Liu Shangshu couldn't help but feel distressed again, his face was tense, but he couldn't help complaining to his old wife, thinking that she didn't do anything all day long, but couldn't even take care of a child.
If the child is so hungry, he will not prepare more food for him. Even if he is in a hurry, he can make some snacks to take with him on the road or into the palace.
The grandson is so hungry, it must be because there is not enough oil and water.
Seeing that Liu Shangshu's face was gloomy, and the fire in his eyes was about to burst out, Li Shangshu and Old Master Tang clicked on it as soon as possible, for fear that he would have a fit on the spot.
Liu Huan, who followed Bai Shan and the others into the palace, finished eating the meat pies, couldn't help touching his swollen stomach and said, "Man Bao, the meat pies made by your sister-in-law are really delicious, better than the cooking pots in the Zhuangyuan Building." The pancakes are not bad either. Why is there no such pancakes in your restaurant?"
"No?" Man Bao tilted his head after thinking for a while and said, "Yes, I remember the six cents on the menu."
"Yes, then why didn't I smell this smell when I went there last time?"
Bai Shan smiled and said, "That's made by Brother Saturday or Master Zhang in the restaurant, it's different from what Auntie Zhou made."
Liu Huan said to Zhou Man seriously: "If your sister-in-law makes pancakes, the business must be very good."
But Man Bao shook his head and said, "Whatever, it's up to my sister-in-law whether she likes it or not."
She said: "It takes half a day for her to make a lot of steamed meat and send it to the restaurant every day, and she also has to take care of the family. There is no money in this world, so there is no need to do everything."
Bai Shan nodded approvingly, "I think it's pretty good now, otherwise my sister-in-law will take charge of the restaurant, if she doesn't go in the future, the reputation of the restaurant may be bad."
Now, except for making some steamed meat or meatballs and sauces, she hardly interferes with the operation of the restaurant, which is all done according to her mood.
Do it when you are free, and don’t do it if you are not free. It is very casual, and Zhou Ji gets along well with the surrounding shops, so it won’t just steal someone’s work.
Bai Shandao: "If my sister-in-law goes to a restaurant to make pancakes and cooking cakes, the vendors selling pancakes and breakfast food on that street will probably hate our restaurant."
Bai Erlang nodded, "We all eat meat, so we have to give others soup, don't we?"
Liu Huan said: "But I think His Royal Highness also likes to eat."
Man Bao waved his hand indifferently and said: "There are a lot of delicious food in this palace. They like to eat it because it is very difficult to eat such food. Once or twice is fine, but if you eat more, it will be the same."
She emphasized: "My family doesn't make meatloaf either, only my sister-in-law will make them when we enter the palace or go out, and they are usually vegetarian."
