Spatial Peasant Girl: These Mad Darlings Are Delicate and Gullible

Here, Xiaoxiao dug out a few more oranges happily. Xiaoxiao mixed the diced water chestnuts with crab meat, egg liquid, minced ginger, and wine. She also sprinkled some pepper to remove the fishy smell and enhance the flavor, and then mixed the mixed ingredients together. Once filled with fresh oranges, cover with orange lid and put on the steamer.

The father and daughter cooperated, and the dish came out very quickly. The rest of the general's mansion was casual, but in this big kitchen, Xiao Ran prepared everything she thought Gu Changan could use, and both chefs used it. It's quite easy.

The emperor came here on time for lunch. Firstly, as the king of a country, he could not leave the palace for too long. The earlier he came, the less he would eat, so he was not so stupid. Secondly, there were too many memorials that he had not finished reviewing. Finished!

He is so diligent. To reward himself, he will eat more later!

Calculate how long it has been since he tasted Gu Changan's craftsmanship?

There are so many dishes prepared in the kitchen that he can't even count them. It can be seen that he is in a good mood today and he is in a good mood!

As soon as the first dish was served, the emperor reflexively wanted to touch the chopsticks, but was glared at by Xiao Ran.

The heroes who have worked hard all afternoon haven't served it yet. Do you dare to try one?

Emperor: ...How dare you to say that no matter whether you are a king or a minister...

Fortunately, Xiaoxiao and Gu Changan were professional and efficient, and they came over while the first dish was still steaming.

Naturally, there were no broken rules in the General's Mansion that women were not allowed to sit at the table. The whole family, including the uninvited emperor, sat neatly, and Eunuch De was sent to the tables where the Yunwei and the General's personal guards were sitting.

The emperor glanced at Xiao Ran: "Is dinner ready?"

Without batting an eyelid, Xiao Ran picked up the serving chopsticks and served Xiaoxiao and Gu Changan with their dishes. Then she picked up the wine glass and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Emperor: ...Doesn’t it seem that he is ignorant?

Xiaoxiao was still young and was not allowed to drink. She could only clink glasses with everyone with tea instead. Then, the family banquet officially began.

The steamer with crabs in it was placed in the middle of the table. Eating this thing is very troublesome and time-consuming. If you do it right before the banquet is started, you will avoid getting cold after peeling the crabs. So Xiaoxiao very wisely proposed: "Let's steam the crabs and eat the vegetables at the same time." Halfway through eating like this, the crabs are cooked and we can digest them while eating."

Moreover, the heat from the steamed crab can also cool other dishes later, killing two birds with one stone, perfect.

The emperor had not yet understood what "steaming crabs and eating vegetables at the same time" meant, and was very puzzled as to why the Xiao family put raw crabs on the table. He saw Rong Yan and Xiao Ran putting small cloth bags into the large porcelain basin under the steamer. Fill one with cold water and pour it in. After pouring, return the steamer tray to its original shape.

The emperor had a question mark on his forehead and couldn't understand what they were doing. At this moment, the steamer made a "chi" sound and began to emit steam.

The emperor's eyes widened, his face filled with shock that was inconsistent with his status.

Who will tell him what happened? Why does everyone seem to be fine with it except him? Doesn't it seem that he is very ignorant if he exclaims now?

The emperor tried to stay calm and wanted to eat some food to calm down his shock.

Others may think that being an emperor means having rich clothes and delicacies every day, but in fact, because Daxia has been recovering in the past few years, as the king of a country, he advocates frugality and takes the lead in setting an example for a light diet, even though his mouth has long been full of food. It was so bland that he still habitually started with the plainest-looking soup.

When he took a spoonful of soup into his mouth, the emperor's eyebrows stood up: "What kind of soup is this?"

Xiao Ran, who also drank the soup first, looked at Gu Changan, who smiled: "Crab clear soup, the soup base is made from old hens and crab bones."

The emperor quickly drank half the bowl and then took another small bun.

Xiaoxiao kicked Rong Yan, and then the latter reminded him: "Father, the soup in the steamed dumplings is very hot."

The emperor stopped quickly to avoid the pain of burning his mouth, but it was so delicious: "Is this called Xiao Long Bao?"

Rong Yan nodded: "I remember that Li's Restaurant sold it, and they called it Ruyi Bao at that time."

It turned out that this was it. The emperor was very satisfied, but after eating one with restraint, he turned to the orange he had been curious about for a long time.

As a noble of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, of course he has eaten this stuff. Although it is not as big as the Xiao family, and it is not eaten as a dish, at this moment, he is really puzzled - Gu Changan has been an imperial chef, why? Would you do something as trivial as serving fruit on the table?

Noticing his gaze, Xiaoxiao simply divided the oranges on the table one by one, and then motioned for everyone to open the orange lids.

"Huh? What's inside?"

Gu Changan said: "Crab, this dish is called crab stuffed with orange."

The emperor smiled and said: "Hey, Chef Gu is finally in the mood to study new dishes?" Although it sounds a bit childish, fruits and crabs don't go together, and when you think about it, they think the taste will be very strange. Gu Changan has been neglecting this for many years. , I am unfamiliar with my skills and have gone astray?

Gu Changan saluted him. Children taught by the Gu family are always well mannered. Compared to Xiao Ran's cross-legged appearance, Gu Changan looked more like a courtier.

He said: "This is made by my family Xiaoxiao."

The tone is quite proud!

The emperor thought that he could understand that this was a child's thing. After all, the girl was young, and she could be considered capable if she could make some pickles, but the formal cooking was still a bit of a joke.

The emperor put down his chopsticks, not intending to torture his tongue, but saw that after listening to Gu Changan's words, the others seemed to be even more impatient. Everyone picked up a small spoon, took a big mouthful, and put it into their mouths, and then looked full of enjoyment. look.

"It's delicious, she is worthy of being my and my husband's daughter!"

Rong Yan also took two bites and gave Xiaoxiao a thumbs up.

The emperor was surprised, but Xiao Ran was fine. She was not picky and defensive, so it was not surprising that she would talk nonsense in order to coax her daughter. However, Gu Changan's persistence in cooking was so stubborn that it left him speechless. How could he open his eyes? Are you telling lies?

Is this a daughter slave?

Thinking this way, he saw that everyone else was eating so deliciously, so he couldn't help but take a bite out of curiosity - why! Why is it so good to eat sweet fruit and crab meat together? And what are the crispy white dices here? It's so fresh and sweet, covering up all the fishy smell of crab meat!

Seeing that he was eating well and no longer looked like he was asking for beatings, Xiao Ran also started to act arrogantly.

"Is it delicious? This is just what my Xiaoxiao made casually. The Ruyi Bao just now was also made by my Xiaoxiao. Look at this again. Have you ever seen a crystal clear dumpling? This is called crystal shrimp dumpling, and it was also invented by my Xiaoxiao. .”

"Oh, by the way, your Majesty must have heard about the newly opened refreshment shops in the capital recently, which are the ones that sell milk tea. My family, Xiaoxiao, was the first to come up with the milk tea, and later it was copied by those unscrupulous businessmen. , except for Li’s shop, the rest of the shops in the capital are all stealing from others, and they are all making a lot of money!”

"Also, the crabs on the table are steamed. Would your Majesty want to open the steamer with your own hands and witness the miracle?"
