At this time, gardenia came in with a basket of washed vegetables.

Gardenia was surprised to see that the young lady was talking and laughing with a strange young man in royal clothes. She didn't know when she met such a noble and handsome young man and looked familiar.

"Gardenia, this is the third prince in the palace and my good friend." Meng Xiaoxiao introduced with a smile and said to Xiao Molan, "this is my little sister gardenia."

"Hello, third prince. I'm just a servant girl of the young lady." Gardenia became cautious when she heard that the young man in front of her was the prince.

"Gardenia, now we two depend on each other here. I have long regarded you as a sister. Don't be afraid, the third prince is very good," Meng Xiaoxiao said.

Xiao Molan smiled and nodded to Gardenia gently. Gardenia was a little relaxed.

Seeing that everything was ready, Meng Xiaoxiao felt that it was almost noon, so he said to Xiao Molan, "Xiao Lan, I'm going to start cooking. Why don't you sit in the hall first and have a good chat with you when I'm finished."

"Xiaoxiao, why do you cook by yourself? Isn't there a cook in the palace?" asked Xiao Molan.

Looking at Meng Xiaoxiao's sweat soaked cheek and thinking that she was still busy cooking, he suddenly had a feeling of heartache and couldn't bear to make her too tired.

"I like the kitchen," Meng Xiaoxiao said faintly, not wanting to talk more about the internal reasons.

"Does brother Xuan care about you?" Xiao Mo Xuan LAN asked again. He still couldn't understand what happened to his brother Xuan and the girl?

Because if it were him, he would never be willing to let Meng Xiaoxiao do these rough jobs.

"In fact, because the Lord only let the young lady eat with the people in the kitchen, the young lady couldn't help thinking about her own business." Gardenia couldn't help but say the inside story frankly at this time.

"Gardenia, don't talk nonsense!" Meng Xiaoxiao gave Gardenia a warning look and said to Xiao Molan, "anyway, I don't like dealing with too many people. It's better to eat quietly here."

Seeing that Xiao Molan seemed to look at himself with sympathy and pity, Meng Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "Xiao Lan, I really like cooking. Moreover, my cooking is also good. Why don't you stay here for dinner today and try my craft?"

"Well, then I won't go back to the palace and stay to taste your craft." Xiao Molan smiled.

After listening to Gardenia's words just now, his heart pulled inexplicably. He was worried that brother Xuan would embarrass Xiaoxiao and that Xiaoxiao would be wronged in the palace.

Now, looking at Meng Xiaoxiao's sunny smile, Xiao Molan's mood is a lot easier. This girl is really optimistic, strong and lovely.

"Hey, hey, let's talk first. There are no delicacies like the imperial palace here, only plain meals and home-made dishes." Meng Xiaoxiao said. I don't know if Xiao Molan, a royal son who has been well-dressed and well fed since childhood, can get used to his own home-made meals, so I'd better say hello to him first.

"Nothing, I just want to change my taste. I love what you do." Xiao Molan looked at Meng Xiaoxiao and smiled softly. His clear eyes were like the quiet spring water in the hot summer, shining with moving luster.

"Then go and sit in the flower hall for a while, and I'll call you when I'm ready." Meng Xiaoxiao smiled sweetly again.

"I won't go, I'll cook with you here." Xiao Molan said, with a childlike stubbornness in his eyes.

"As long as you don't feel choked by oil smoke," Meng Xiaoxiao no longer insisted on letting him leave.

Anyway, the old boy was so easy-going and friendly that he had almost no distance with him. He stayed here to watch her cook, and she didn't think she was used to it.

Meng Xiaoxiao first cooked rice tea and began to cut vegetables. Gardenia gave her a hand.

Xiao Moxuan stood beside Meng Xiaoxiao and watched her busy. His heart was full of novel moves.

I never knew that a young lady who looked so charming would be so capable, and her busy appearance in the kitchen turned out to be more beautiful and lovely than ever before.

In ancient times, cooking stoves were used to burning firewood and adding firewood continuously. Meng Xiaoxiao was not used to it. Although zhier is a servant girl, she has never done such work.

Finally, Xiao Molan volunteered to help them light the fire and squatted by the stove to add firewood. When Meng Xiaoxiao fried several dishes, Xiao Molan also got soot all over his face.

Meng Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "Xiao Lan, it's really difficult for you today. A prince is coming to help us cook the stove."

"Hehe, I haven't tried before. Today I think it's very interesting." Xiao Molan said with a smile.

"If you burn it every day, you won't feel interesting. You'll be bored to death." Meng Xiaoxiao made a grimace and shouted happily, "gardenia, have dinner, have dinner."

Gardenia had already cleaned up the small table in the kitchen and put the food away.

Three people sat around the small square table and began to eat.

At first, zhier was embarrassed to sit with them, but Meng Xiaoxiao said that everyone is equal here. She saw that Xiao Molan was also kind and had no airs. Then she sat down, but she was still a little stiff and hung her eyes and didn't dare to talk more.

Meng Xiaoxiao filled a large bowl of rice tea and handed it to Xiao Molan: "Xiao Lan, try my rice tea first."

Xiao Molan saw that rice tea was like tea rather than tea, like porridge rather than porridge. The light yellow soup was blooming with grains of rice flowers, with a faint aroma. I scooped a spoonful with a spoon and sent it to the entrance. I just felt the fragrance of rice overflowing and my mouth was full of saliva. I couldn't help but exclaim: "Xiaoxiao, your craft is really good. This rice tea is very delicious."

"Xiao Lan, really? Is that what you said?" Meng Xiaoxiao looked at Xiao Molan expectantly with big black pearl eyes.

"Of course it's true, Xiaoxiao. I won't lie to you." Xiao Molan's face was serious.

"Hee hee, I knew you would like it, so you should eat more." Meng Xiaoxiao was happy. While greeting Gardenia to eat more, he also gave Xiao Molan a chopstick of green vegetables: "try my fried food again."

"Well, it's delicious," Xiao Molan said after tasting it.

In fact, Meng Xiaoxiao's cooking skills can only be regarded as general, and can't be compared with the imperial chef in the court. However, Xiao Molan felt that this ordinary vegetable tasted very good when he ate it.

Maybe, just because this girl made it herself.

When Xiao Moxuan stepped into the kitchen gate of ziyuyuan, he saw such a scene.

Meng Xiaoxiao was dressed in strange clothes that she had never seen before. All her arms and legs were exposed outside and enthusiastically sandwiched vegetables for Xiao Molan.

Xiao Molan is full of happy and satisfied smiles and eats with relish, as if what he eats now is the most delicious thing in the world.
