Chapter 126 Adoption
Finally it was lunch time. Shen Zhaonian took out a bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge and a portion of golden, greasy pan-fried buns from the lunch box.
There was also a portion of balsamic vinegar that Chen Huazheng had prepared.
He poured the vinegar into the sauce dish and drank a few spoonfuls of hot porridge. Then he picked up a pan-fried bun with chopsticks and took a small bite.
A small cut was made in the soft and glutinous bun skin, and the rich and full gravy instantly flowed into the mouth, slightly hot and a little sticky.
The gravy slowly flows down the mouth into the throat, it is so delicious that it is hard to describe.
Shen Zhaonian picked up the pan-fried bun with chopsticks, dipped it in the vinegar sauce, and took a bite.
The surface of the pan-fried buns is soft and glutinous, and the bottom is crispy.
They are simply two extremes.
During the chewing process, these two completely different tastes are intertwined, mixed with the rich aroma of meat filling and sesame, presenting a unique delicious taste in the mouth.
It surges from the tip of the tongue to the heart, and keeps circling between the taste buds, as if it can hit the soul directly. It is simply indescribable.
Shen Zhaonian ate several steamed buns in a row and drank a whole bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge.
The warmth slid from the tip of the tongue to the throat, all the way into the stomach. I felt warm in my stomach and my whole body felt comfortable.
Shen Zhaonian put down his chopsticks and suddenly felt full of happiness.
After lunch and a short rest, when you finish your official duties, you can go home to see your wife and children.
…
Inside the Imperial Canteen
Although the servant had already told him how to eat Shengjianbao, Shen Keheng, who was already starving, didn't care at all.
His eyes lit up when he saw those round, juicy and shiny steamed buns.
He picked one up without hesitation and started eating it hastily, hissing at the heat from time to time.
Shen Kesi was speechless. Can't you eat slowly?
Xue Cong was holding chopsticks, carefully looking at the pan-fried buns in front of him.
The fragrant white and tender buns are of uniform size, and even the wrinkles on the buns are particularly delicate.
The buns are sprinkled with black sesame seeds and chopped green onions, and the thick layer at the bottom is fried until crispy, which looks very tempting.
He picked one up and took a small bite.
The glutinous bun skin was bitten open in an instant, and the delicious and slightly hot gravy overflowed into the mouth, leaving a lingering fragrance on the teeth and cheeks.
Xue Cong was slightly stunned, and took another bite of the bun. He seemed to understand why Shen Keheng stuffed the steamed bun into his mouth while shouting "it's hot".
The pan-fried buns have rich textures, with a greasy and soft outer skin, a golden and crispy bun bottom, and fresh and tender fillings. You can feel the unique flavor spreading in your mouth with every bite.
Every bite is juicy and delicious.
The aroma of pork, oil, sesame and green onions lingers in your mouth for a long time, making you addicted.
Shen Kesi and Xue Cong were also happily eating the steamed buns and drinking the preserved egg and lean meat porridge.
The texture of the pan-fried buns is both crispy and soft, soft and crispy, and it is really fun to chew.
The filling is tender and juicy, and full of flavor.
The highlight is the golden and crispy bottom of the bun, which tastes oily and crispy, and it will make your teeth, tongue, and taste buds fall in love with it...
Chew it carefully, and the taste of the buns and the aroma of the various ingredients in the filling will linger on the tip of your tongue.
Every bite is an enjoyment, a feast for the taste buds.
After eating the pan-fried buns, have a sip of the thick, salty and fragrant century egg and lean meat porridge.
The porridge is smooth and fragrant, warming the tip of the tongue.
The slightly bouncy texture of the preserved egg and the rich aroma of pork intertwine between the lips and go down the throat into the stomach.
After drinking a bowl of porridge, I felt my whole body warmed up, even my heart was warm.
…
Princess Yi'an sat in the main seat and glanced at Jiang Jinrong indifferently.
"Since you only have Jiang Yirou and her brother and their mother who is not presentable in your hearts, and cannot tolerate Ning'er, then I will make the decision today and adopt Ning'er to your eldest brother. This will also save you from always disliking her."
Jiang Jinrong was horrified and knelt down quickly.
"Mother, what are you talking about? Your son is fine, why did you give Ning'er to my eldest brother? What you said to Ning'er that day was just a joke, why is it so serious?!!"
How can it make sense to give a daughter away for adoption when the biological father is still alive?
What's more, he adopted his daughter to his eldest brother, who obviously has a son! !
Jiang Can and Jiang Huai also knelt down and begged, "Grandma, please don't do this."
"Grandma, I know I was wrong. Please give us another chance."
After that day, the two of them kept trying to find a chance to talk to Aning, but they could never see her.
I thought that after all, they were blood-related siblings, and even if Aning was being naughty for a while, there would always be a chance to make it up to her.
Today, Princess Yi'an is going to meet Jiang Jinrong and his son. Although Jiang Can and Jiang Huai vaguely sense that Princess Yi'an might be angry about what happened that day, they are still happy to see their sister.
But when I arrived, I not only didn’t see Aning, but was also told that Aning was going to be adopted out! !
Princess Yi'an laughed in anger, "Ask yourselves, how many chances has Ning'er given you, and how many chances have I given you? But have you ever cherished them?"
"When did that mother and daughter not shed a few tears to deceive you all, and then let Ning'er suffer injustice?"
Jiang Jinrong knew that he had indeed gone too far this time, "My son will definitely compensate Ning'er from other sources."
Princess Yi'an was so angry that her fingers were shaking. It was all her fault.
If she hadn't been a bad parent, she wouldn't have let Ning'er suffer like this.
"How are you going to make amends?"
"Son, son..."
Jiang Jinrong just blurted out those words in a moment of desperation. Now that Princess Yi'an asked him, he couldn't say it.
In fact, he didn't know what kind of compensation he should give to Princess Lejia. In terms of status and wealth, he seemed to have nothing to offer.
He only knew that he could not agree to let Princess Lejia be adopted out no matter what. Otherwise, he would become the laughing stock of the whole capital and would never be able to raise his head again.
"Forget it," Princess Yi'an interrupted Jiang Jinrong disappointedly, "Just do as I say. I'm just notifying you today."
Jiang Can seemed to have thought of something, "Grandma, where is Aning? Does she know about this?"
If Aning knew, she would definitely not agree.
Did her grandmother make this decision without telling her?
Jiang Jinrong also looked at Princess Yi'an with sparkling eyes, "Mother, can we see Ning'er?"
As long as I can see Ning'er, maybe this matter will turn around.
Princess Yi'an knew what they were planning at a glance and shattered their hopes with just one sentence.
"Ning'er knew about this and agreed to it. Besides, she doesn't want to see you."
Jiang Can's eyes widened, and he collapsed to the ground, muttering, "How could this happen? How could this happen?"
Jianghuai also looked lost and empty.
In the next room, Liang held Princess Lejia's hand lovingly, fearing that she would be sad.
Princess Lejia smiled sweetly at Liang and comforted her in return, "Aunt, I'm fine."
Liang was relieved when she saw that her smile did not seem fake.
"Why do you still call me aunt?"
Princess Lejia was slightly startled, then she called out softly: "Mother~~"
“Hey~~”
Liang happily hugged Princess Lejia into her arms, "Ning'er, remember from now on, you are my daughter, no one can bully you, understand?"
"knew."
