Solitary pet

Chapter 227

The evening smoke curled up, the clouds in the sky dispersed, and the night gradually emerged from the hills and gradually dyed.

Mei Yongzhi returned to Pingling Palace, Hua Sheng came over, pointed in the direction of the main hall, and said: "The one went to the kitchen, and said that he is going to cook in person tonight, Miss, do you want to go and have a look?"

Mei Yanzhi stroked the jade token in his hand, hesitated for a few seconds, and then followed Hua Sheng to the kitchen.

All the servants in the kitchen were driven out, and He Sheng was cooking in the kitchen alone, without letting anyone help.

Before the prince came back, she had made up her mind that when he came back from his errands, she would let him have the first bite of the meal she cooked.

Fish fillets in milk sauce, duck feet with mushrooms, lentils in ginger sauce... He specially chooses his favorite dishes to make.I haven't cooked for a long time, but my cooking skills are not unfamiliar. I picked up the spatula and hung it on the cutting board, and I was still proficient. Within half an hour, all the dishes for a table were ready.

He beckoned the servant girl to serve the dishes, and two rows of servant girls filed in.A group of people carried the food box to the west room of the main hall, and a group of people held the copper basin for washing things and waited for her to wash her hands.

After cooking a meal, there was sweat on her forehead and the smell of oily smoke on her dress. She washed her hands and prepared to go to the inner hall to change.

He raised his eyes and saw Cuiyu's eyes were strange. Following his gaze, there seemed to be someone standing in the small yard in front of the kitchen?Sneaking around, hiding, hey, looking at the figure, it seems to be Miss Mei?

Putting the handkerchief aside, she shouted, "Miss Mei!"

Mei Yongzhi originally just wanted to take a look at it from a distance. Few people in the aristocratic family would cook in person. These are the jobs of servants. How could the master condescend to do such a thing?

But looking at the expressions of the servants of the palace, it seems that the side concubine often cooks herself?

Hmph, is it a way to win over men?

Mei Rongzhi simply stood up boldly, walked up to He Sheng with the gait of a lady, smiled sweetly, and said, "It turns out that the culinary skill of the side concubine's empress is extraordinary."

He Sheng was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly came back to his senses. Is she being sarcastic?

Subconsciously nodded, "My cooking skills are indeed not bad."

Mei Yanzhi didn't expect her to admit it so frankly, choked with gas, then lowered her voice, and said with a smile: "In ancient times, there were witches who used sex to serve people, but today there are side concubines who serve people with cooking skills, which is quite strange."

He Sheng twitched the corners of his mouth, seeing her sick and weak, he didn't bother to care about it. "If Miss Mei is envious, you can try it."

Mei Yanzhi rolled her eyes, "I don't care."

Even though he said so, he couldn't help but look into the kitchen. The servants were carrying dishes and putting them in the food boxes. The delicious dishes were delicious, just looking at them would make people salivate.

This smell reminded Mei Yanzhi of the only time when Mei's mother cooked soup when she was eight years old.

The tender slices of meat are rolled in the boiled bone soup. The meat is sweet when chewed in the mouth, and the soup is added with sauce, which tastes rich and salty.

The fresh scent came, and the plum branch smelled it, and I was hungry.

He Sheng asked: "Will Miss Mei have dinner with us today?" The situation at dinner yesterday was really embarrassing.

The prince finally came back, she wanted to enjoy his tenderness more, but if Mei Zhizhi was in front of her eyes, she felt bad for her.Hey, I still hope that Miss Mei can retreat in the face of difficulties. At least, when it comes to eating, don't join them at the same table.

Mei Yanzhi thought for a while, pointed to the maids who came out with food boxes, and asked: "How many dishes have you cooked, if I eat alone in the room, is it enough?"

I'm afraid it's not enough.He Sheng was stunned. Hearing what Miss Mei meant, did she want to eat her cooking?
She didn't have the generosity and kindness to cook for Mei Zongzhi again.

Call the kitchen master, and in front of the plum noodles, tell the master to cook according to the taste of the plum.

Mei Yanzhi stretched her neck to look, and the maidservants carrying the food boxes had disappeared without a trace.

Having settled the matter of Mei Yanzhi's meal, He Sheng didn't plan to stay any longer and was about to leave when Mei Yanzhi called her from behind: "Can you give me a random dish from the main hall meal?"

She spoke in an extremely low voice, as if she was talking about something shameful.

It is a good thing that someone appreciates cooking skills, not to mention that this person is Mei Yongzhi.

A second ago, she was barking her teeth and claws and said that she was a witch, but now she is begging for rations. Compared with the two, this situation is very gratifying.

With a big wave of his hand, He Sheng shared two dishes with her without hesitation.

When eating in the evening, He Sheng sat on Shen Hao's lap, and the two of them ate happily. Someone in front said: "Miss Mei asked the servant to come and see. I didn't eat enough for the night. I asked if I could have another meal or two in the main hall." past."

He Sheng looked at the table, the prince had already eaten all the food, how could the food be evenly distributed?After thinking about it, he ordered someone to deliver the snacks he made.

After half an hour, the young couple came back from a walk, and happened to see Mei Yanzhi waiting at the entrance of the main hall.

Shen Hao deliberately avoided suspicion, found an excuse to go to the study, and before leaving, he gave He Sheng a wink, telling her not to worry about getting out and meeting him earlier.

He Sheng shrugged his eyelids, reassuring him.

Sitting down one after the other, He Sheng pretended to be deep and picked up a cup of tea, thinking about what topics to talk about in order to get rid of Mei Zhizhi as soon as possible.

Glancing sideways, Mei Zongzhi was taking out a pocket-sized Jinxiu fruit box from under her sleeve, picked a piece of sesame shortbread from it, and began to eat it.

He Sheng was dumbfounded.This behavior is not in line with Miss Mei's usual style?
Then she reacted immediately, pretended not to see it, and continued to drink her tea.

Mei Yanzhi took the initiative to speak out, and there was no gentleness in her voice that was always pretending to be reserved, and said sharply: "I guess you are tired of watching it after pretending these days. Although I don't like you very much, but you cook now." His craftsmanship is really good, if one day someone drives you out of the palace, you can try to open a restaurant on the street."
