Chapter 189 A Masterpiece of Thousands of Years



"What? The princess is here? Let's go!"

Upon hearing that the princess had arrived, Boss Wang quickly wiped his hands, picked up the freshly cooked dishes from the table, and strode out.

"Princess! Princess, you've arrived! Come, come, just in time! My new dish, Mala Xiang Guo (Spicy Stir-Fry), is here! Try it and see if it tastes right!"

As soon as Boss Wang entered the private room, he enthusiastically placed the dishes he was carrying in front of Lin Yuxin, looking at her expectantly and talking non-stop.

"Boss Wang's cooking is really good; it smells so good."

Lin Yuxin looked at the well-prepared spicy hot pot on the table and praised it with a smile.

Many of the dishes here are not available. She used ingredients that exist in this world in the recipes she gave Boss Wang, with a combination of meat and vegetables, and it looked no different from what she ate in her previous life.

Lin Yuxin picked up her chopsticks, took a piece of chicken, put it in her mouth, chewed it, and then nodded, affirming:

"Mr. Wang's cooking is excellent, the taste is just right, would you like to try some?"

Lin Yuxin then urged Li Xiaochen and Xiao Hao to try some as well.

Li Xiaochen didn't stand on ceremony and picked up a piece to eat as well. Hmm! It's pretty good.

"Mmm! The flavor is unique! Spicy and savory! Anyone who likes spicy food will definitely love it."

Li Xiaochen's answer was very reasonable.

"Boss Wang's cooking skills are excellent. I only wrote down the menu, but he was able to make the taste ten times better."

Lin Yuxin praised Boss Wang without reservation.

"Your Highness is too kind. I don't have many hobbies, except for studying cooking. My ancestors were chefs."

Mr. Wang smiled shyly and said modestly after being praised.

Lin Yuxin and Boss Wang chatted about business for a while longer before Boss Wang left, and the dishes Lin Yuxin and the others had ordered were served.

A plate of spicy chicken, a plate of Mapo tofu, and a serving of steamed sea bass.

Since there are no sea bass here, they use yellow croaker instead.

Of the three, only Lin Yuxin could handle spicy food. Li Xiaochen and Xiao Hao couldn't eat much spicy food. They would only take a couple of bites before drinking water because of the spiciness, and then continue eating, which made Lin Yuxin laugh.

She knew that some people could become addicted to spicy food, wanting more and more the spicier it was!

By the time they finished eating, both of their lips were bright red, resembling sausage lips. Lin Yuxin couldn't help but lower her head, shrug, and chuckle.

Hahaha! Those sausage lips, these two are absolutely hilarious!

Li Xiaochen glanced at Lin Yuxin, and even Xiao Hao looked at his older sister with resentment!

Can't you give me some face in public?

"Ahem! Well then, now that we've eaten and drunk our fill, let's continue shopping!"

Feeling guilty under their gazes, Lin Yuxin hurriedly changed the subject.

Then he got up and strode outside, leaving the two of them, one big and one small, staring at each other in bewilderment.

The two had no choice but to get up and follow.

I can only spoil my own woman (my older sister)!

The two of them spent the day strolling around the streets with Lin Yuxin and saw what the novelties she had mentioned were like.

Meiren Nishang started selling ready-made clothes, and new styles were introduced. Some women of status in the northern city rushed to buy them.

They also said they would release three new styles every month, including men's and children's clothing.

They also set up mannequins at the entrance, made of wood and dressed in clothes, to be displayed for people to admire.

This attracted many people to linger at the entrance.

Lin Yuxin had instructed the grain shop to ensure that all prices were not increased and that the grains sold there were sold at market prices; a contract had also been signed.

Therefore, even if the grain shop owners in the north of the city wanted to raise prices, they wouldn't dare.

There was also a teahouse, where Lin Yuxin directly asked the owner to invite someone to tell stories, anything was fine. If she really couldn't think of anything, Lin Yuxin wrote a copy of "Journey to the West" from memory overnight for him.

When Lin Yuxin took the two of them there, they witnessed the Three Battles with the White Bone Demon.

The three of them sat there all afternoon drinking tea and listening to "Journey to the West"!

Seeing how serious they were, Lin Yuxin couldn't bear to tell them to leave, so she sat in the corner and took a nap.

She hasn't slept well for two or three days in a row. Researching basic pesticides is very mentally taxing.

When Lin Yuxin opened her eyes again, the Journey to the West segment for the day had already been told, and Xiao Hao was still looking at the stage with lingering interest.

Although Li Xiaochen was supposed to remain calm, it was obvious that he was distracted.

"What? Haven't you heard enough?"

Lin Yuxin sat up, shook her arms to loosen her stiff arms, and asked the two of them with amusement.

"Did you write this?"

Li Xiaochen stared intently at Lin Yuxin and asked.

"Well, I thought the things they talked about in the teahouse every day were too boring, so I wrote this. The boss liked it very much and had people start talking about it that very day. It seems the response has been very good."

Lin Yuxin nodded, acknowledging it.

This is a classic work from thousands of years ago; how could it not be wonderful?

"Sister, that Sun Wukong is so powerful! Did he defeat the monster in the end?"

After Xiao Hao learned that it was his older sister who wrote it, he looked at Lin Yuxin with a look of surprise and wanted to know what happened next with Sun Wukong, so he quickly asked.

"Oh, this? To find out what happens next, stay tuned for the next installment! It wouldn't be interesting if the ending were revealed in advance."

Lin Yuxin shook her head and kept everyone in suspense.

"Sister! Please tell me! Sister? Sister!"

Xiao Hao even resorted to acting cute. His usually serious and expressionless face became quite adorable when he started acting cute, much cuter than usual.

"Alright, I'll go back and write this story down for you from memory, then you can read it slowly!"

Seeing Xiao Hao's rare display of affection, Lin Yuxin softened and gave in. After all, Journey to the West was a famous work of literature from her previous life, with profound meaning, so it wouldn't hurt to read it.
