Chapter 270: Fragrant Bacon Rice

"All right, Madam Village Head, just watch!" The women on the farm immediately responded in a loud voice. The voice was so high and powerful that it seemed to penetrate the sky.

After the shout, the women did not waste any words. They quickly put down the work in their hands and followed the village head's wife quickly and orderly like well-trained soldiers to carefully prepare the tables, chairs, bowls and chopsticks for the distinguished guests.

Immediately afterwards, the women hurried home and moved their cooking utensils to the threshing ground as quickly as possible.

Those who wash the pots wash the pots, those who wash the dishes wash the dishes, and those who light the fire light the fire, all are busy and happy.

Soon, everything was ready.

The youngest son of the village head was sent over by his mother again. He trotted over to Chu Ci, his face flushed, and he spoke incoherently, "Princess, my mother and the others have prepared everything, but they haven't seen bacon rice before. I'll have to trouble your nanny to go over and give them some pointers."

Nanny Zhang's heart skipped a beat when her name was suddenly called, and she was instantly flustered. She subconsciously looked at Chu Ci, her expression nervous, and said in a trembling voice, "Princess, this servant..."

Even though he has been in the book for many years, Chu Ci always maintains an aloof attitude towards the people and things around him because he deliberately does not want to integrate into this world.

So at this moment, she really didn't understand why Aunt Zhang was kneeling down.

But seeing Nanny Zhang's terrified look, I knew she must have misunderstood something.

Chu Ci quickly stood up and walked quickly to Aunt Zhang. He held out his hands to help her up and said gently, "Aunt Zhang, if you have anything to say, please stand up and talk."

Nanny Zhang followed Chu Ci's movements and stood up. The panic on her face faded slightly, and she immediately realized that she had misunderstood.

However, he was even more frightened in his heart, feeling that he had offended the princess.

She lowered her head, not daring to breathe, and could only wait respectfully by the side. Her body was tense and she didn't even know what to do with her hands and feet.

Qianxue and Qianyan, both of whom were attentive, saw through Aunt Zhang's thoughts. They exchanged a glance, understanding each other, and then glided lightly to the side of the village head's youngest son, one in front and one behind.

Qianxue smiled sweetly and said, "Little brother, this bacon rice is a recipe my sister-in-law just came up with. It's very rare. It's not often seen in ordinary households, and the method is unique and exquisite."

Qian Yan also laughed and continued, "So, so far, except for my sister-in-law and my sisters, no one else can make this bacon rice!"

Qianxue raised her eyebrows slightly and said in a delicate voice, "So, instead of inviting Aunt Zhang, why not invite us sisters?"

The youngest son of the village head blinked his eyes and asked innocently, "You two young ladies are honored ladies. Could you please help me in the kitchen?"

Qianxue and Qianyan smiled at each other when they heard this, and Qianxue said softly, "Let's go!"

Afterwards, Qianxue, Qianyan and their youngest son slowly left.

Chu Ci looked at their departing backs, pondered for a moment, and finally understood what Nanny Zhang was thinking.

She smiled slightly, flipped her hand, and took out the recipe for bacon rice from the space, handed it to Aunt Zhang, and comforted her, "Aunt Zhang, don't be nervous. Recipes like this are public in Lianzhou and are not rare secrets. You don't need to worry about it."

Nanny Zhang realized she had misunderstood and felt a little embarrassed. But she was no ordinary person after all. After a moment, she calmed down, took the prescription respectfully with both hands, and said solemnly, "I will do my best to prepare it and will not let the princess down."

After she finished speaking, she took big strides and hurried towards the stove that the village head lady had specially left for her.

However, if you look closely, you can still see that her figure is a little flustered.

But these are just a very small episode.

As the rich aroma of bacon rice wafted out, it was as if an invisible hand grasped the attention of everyone present.

The fragrance penetrates into people's nasal cavity, teasing their taste buds and making people salivate.

There was no other way. In order to give everyone present a little shock, Chu Ci secretly added spiritual spring water while Nanny Zhang was not paying attention.

Even Aunt Zhang, who was used to delicacies from land and sea, looked at her hands in confusion several times, muttering to herself in disbelief: "Is it really me who made something so fragrant?"

Her eyes were full of surprise and confusion, as if she couldn't believe that this intoxicating fragrance came from her own hands.

The village head lady was always good at livening up the atmosphere, and she immediately said loudly and cheerfully, "How can this be fake? We all watched you make it step by step."

When Aunt Zhang heard this, her eyes lit up slightly. Her originally uneasy heart instantly calmed down a lot, and a smile unconsciously appeared on her face.

Seeing this, Chu Ci also stepped up his efforts and said with a sweet smile, "That's right, didn't someone say that delicious food also depends on chance?"

"Today we have good ingredients, a pleasant environment, and your superb cooking skills, Aunt Zhang. Perhaps this is your chance."

"Maybe in the future you can become famous with your cooking skills."

Nanny Zhang was very pleased with Chu Ci's affirmation, her face filled with gratitude and joy, but she always remembered her duty and quickly bowed and said, "My princess, I am sorry for the trouble you have caused me."

Chu Ci shook her head slightly and said with a smile, "Madam Zhang, please don't be so modest. This is the praise you deserve."

Nanny Zhang raised her head, her eyes full of respect: "My princess is so kind. I will serve you even more attentively since you have appreciated me so much."

Chu Ci nodded slightly: "Of course, I believe Aunt Zhang will not let me down."

Nanny Zhang quickly responded, "This old servant will do his best and will not slack off even for a moment."

Chu Ci and Nanny Zhang were being polite to each other, but it was hard for the farmers waiting on the side.

The rich aroma of meat rushed straight into their noses without any hindrance, constantly whetting their appetite.

Finally, someone couldn't help but murmur, "This smells so good, my mouth is watering. When can we eat it?"

If there is one, there will be another. Someone immediately responded, "What are you thinking? The princess is still here. Don't break the rules."

If someone had told them before that pork could be cooked so fragrantly, they would definitely not believe it even if they were beaten to death.

But now, some people couldn't help but sigh, "She's worthy of being the princess appointed by the emperor himself. She's incredible. I've never smelled such a delicious aroma in my life. What kind of divine delicacy is this bacon rice?"

Upon hearing about the delicious food, the person next to him swallowed hard and said with anticipation: "I really want to try it soon. Smelling this aroma, I feel like I can eat three big bowls."
