Chapter 440 An Ning Temple
Wen Zhenyi then withdrew his gaze and looked at Chef Sun beside him: "This is the list of ingredients needed, but these ingredients are enough for a hundred people."
Chef Sun looked at the long list of ingredients in his hand. It was a laborious task to calculate the ingredients needed. "Yes."
Wen Zhenyi took another look at the ingredients in the food warehouse before reluctantly leaving: "I will teach you how to make these dishes starting tomorrow." Wen Zhenyi handed the drawn album to Chef Sun.
Chef Sun was fascinated by the pictures in the album. The ingredients, presentation and even the cooking methods of the food fascinated him.
Wen Zhen took one look at his expression and whispered to Shen Hanxing, "It's a common problem when people like the same thing."
Seeing her playful look, Shen Hanxing wanted to reach out and pinch her face. However, the environment here was not right, so she could only suppress her eager hand.
After reading the last page, Chef Sun held the paintings in his arms as if they were treasures. "Princess, I will send someone to prepare some of the ingredients tomorrow."
Wen Zhen nodded: "Okay, I will come when the palace gate opens tomorrow morning."
Chen Hanxing waited for Chef Sun to call Chef Fan: "This Chef Sun is very reliable in his work."
"Indeed, he didn't just say prepare all the ingredients, but the preparation part."
“He understands that you can’t learn all the dishes in one day, but it’s best to prepare a sufficient portion of the ingredients.”
"So, it's not unreasonable for him to become the chef."
Chef Fan came out excitedly, "Princess, Prince Consort, this imperial kitchen is really huge. Everyone has their own things to do. Even though there are so many people, it's not messy at all."
"They all have a clear division of labor, so things can be handled in an orderly manner. Even if there is a problem, we can know where the problem lies."
"So that's how it is."
Wen Zhenyi didn't know whether Xiao Abu and the others had finished their conversation, so he sent someone to pass on a message saying that they were going back to the Princess's Mansion first.
After leaving the palace, Wen Zhenyi planned to go shopping in the capital, but they were still wearing princess clothes, so he had to go back and change into comfortable clothes before going out.
He told Chef Fan not to worry about their meals and went out to visit the capital.
Shen Hanxing has been in the capital for a while, but he hasn't been around the capital much. He has been dealing with official business most of the time, hoping to finish it as soon as possible and go back.
Wen Zhenyi took his hand and said, "My husband, are you familiar with the capital?"
"I'm not really familiar with it."
"Didn't you stay in the capital for a long time?"
"It's true that my eldest brother and I have been in the capital for a long time, but we all want to finish our work quickly and go back home as soon as possible. Basically, we run back and forth between the office and the house every day."
"Your capital is in vain."
"It's like I came here for nothing. When I first came here, I had to review my lessons and take the Spring Examination. But while waiting for the results, I did spend some time at a nearby temple. The vegetarian food there is quite delicious. Do you want to go?"
"Is it far from here?"
"It's not far. We can rent a carriage and arrive in about two quarters of an hour."
"Okay, let's go see if we can get some vegetarian food."
The two found a carriage and headed to Anning Temple outside the capital.
The driver chatted with them as he drove the carriage: "Is this your first time in the capital?"
Wen Zhenyi said through the car curtain: "Yes, I heard that the vegetarian food at Anning Temple is delicious."
"Those two have come to the right place. The vegetarian food at Anning Temple is indeed famous. Many pilgrims come to the temple to eat every day, and the locals also go there frequently."
"Uncle, are you going too?"
"Yes, the prayers at Anning Temple are very effective. If you two have any wishes, you can go there and pray. They will surely come true."
"Okay, is there anything else fun to do in the capital?"
"Yes, there's a bamboo forest behind Anning Temple. The environment is quiet and peaceful. Brewing a pot of good tea and sitting in the pavilion watching the snow is quite special. Also, a little further away, there's a plum forest of ten thousand acres. The plum blossoms are in full bloom right now. Buy some meat and some wine, grill some meat, drink some wine, and enjoy the plum blossoms."
"Uncle is still an elegant man."
"Haha, I just have a lot of customers, so I always hear them talking about it."
"Does this Merlin have an owner?"
"Yes, it's at Plum Manor down the mountain. Why do you ask this, Madam?"
"I was just trying to see if I could buy some plum blossoms."
“What are you buying plum blossoms for?”
"It can be used to make food, and can also be used to make tea and wine."
"Can these plum blossoms be eaten?"
"Yes, everything we make still has a faint plum fragrance."
"Hearing you say that, I really want to try it."
"I think there will be a chance."
The driver took them to the foot of the mountain where Anning Temple was located. He said, "I can only take you two this far. You two will have to walk the rest of the way."
Wen Zhenyi looked up at the stairs in front of him. At the end of the stairs, he could see the appearance of a temple. "Uncle, could you please wait here for us?"
"Yes, but the price will be higher."
"It's no problem."
"Okay, I'll wait for you at the teahouse under the tree next to you." The driver pointed to a teahouse not far away.
Wen Zhenyi smiled and nodded: "Okay."
Chen Hanxing helped Wen Zhenyi put on the cloak and said, "The higher we go, the colder it gets."
Wen Zhenyi placed his somewhat cold hand in his warm palm: "I have a heater."
Shen Hanxing held her hand tightly: "You are just feeling better. If you can't walk anymore, just tell us and we will stop and rest for a while."
"good."
The two walked slowly up the mountain. Not long after they reached the top, snow began to fall from the sky.
Shen Hanxing put the hood of her cloak on her head, leaving only her small face, the size of a palm, exposed.
Wen Zhenyi looked up at the snow that was falling and reached out to catch it.
The snowflakes fell into her palms and soon turned into water.
Chen Hanxing saw that she had been playing for a while and said, "Stop playing. You won't be able to catch up with the vegetarian meal soon."
Wen Zhenyi then remembered the purpose of today.
The two of them walked halfway up the mountain and looked up to see that there was still a lot of stairs left.
Wen Zhenyi gasped with exhaustion: "This body really isn't as good as it used to be."
"It's much better now. Let's take a rest."
"If I don't rest, I won't want to move even if I stop for a while."
"How about I carry you?"
"No, I want to go by myself."
"Then let's walk slowly."
Wen Zhen nodded.
The two walked a little slower, but finally arrived at the gate of Anning Temple.
Wen Zhenyi came with the idea of worshipping Buddha as soon as he arrived, so he bought incense and candles, donated money for incense, and made a sincere wish.
Shen Hanxing knelt beside her and made a wish in his heart.
