Chapter 191: Noodle soup with miraculous effects.
Except for the Fourth Master, the others were already bruised and battered, but they still insisted on practicing with the Fourth Master.
Wen Jiu had watched too much and felt bored. She didn't want to get involved in the affairs between men. She sat down bored and wanted to go into the space to take a look when An Luhai came over.
"Miss, what do you think of the master's meal arrangements for today?" Everyone in the mansion can cook some noodles or porridge, and they can also stir-fry any dishes, but the master still has to listen to the young lady's orders.
Wen Jiu stood up and said, "Let's go and take a look in the kitchen."
Just now, the Ninth Master and the Tenth Master came to see me, saying that they had asked for a position for me and the Fourth Master, and they also kept talking about wanting to eat hot pot, saying that I should reward them.
Wenjiu thought that maybe it was because the porridge was too hard to swallow without any food that made them very greedy.
Now that I've calmed down, I'm in the mood to plan meals for everyone.
As An Luhai and I were counting the food in the kitchen, we saw Doctor Liu poking his head in from the kitchen window, smiling very kindly: "Miss, can I have a bowl of noodles with you?"
As he spoke, he stroked his beard awkwardly again: "The last time you gave me that bowl of noodle soup, I ate a big bowl of it. I don't know why, but I felt that my old cold legs that had been tormenting me for years were also warm..."
Doctor Liu felt a little embarrassed to say this, as he had no relationship with the girl and it was not appropriate for him to come up and ask for it.
It's just that his old cold legs had been uncured for years, making them extremely uncomfortable on cloudy and rainy days, and even more unbearable in winter. Fortunately, a bowl of soup helped him feel a little better, so he finally had the nerve to speak up.
Wen Jiu was stunned for a moment, then immediately responded with a smile: "Hey, wait a minute, we'll have this noodle tonight."
Everyone obviously liked her noodles yesterday. After hearing her words, even the kitchen maids, eunuchs, and the doctors outside were all beaming with joy and thanking her profusely.
Su Peisheng, who was secretly warming the wine, couldn't help but be surprised. These imperial physicians all looked kind, but they were usually the most difficult to approach and had very arrogant attitudes. Among them, Imperial Physician Liu was even more famous for his eccentricity, and now he seemed to be very close to the young lady. He had only been busy with his master for a few days, so how could he seem to have missed so many things? He glanced at Imperial Physician Liu several times.
Doctor Liu, on the other hand, was only thinking about the noodles and peered into the pot of warm wine. "Miss, did you add any herbs to this soup? How could it have such miraculous effects?"
"This... is just a soup with salt, pepper, mushrooms, and noodles, but no herbs." Wen Jiu wondered, could it be the spiritual spring water? Or had she just hit upon the right symptom? She wasn't sure.
Doctor Liu was more and more surprised and asked suspiciously, "Then... why is this?" After practicing medicine for many years, he naturally knew that what Wen Jiu said was of no benefit to his condition.
Wen Jiuzhi smiled and said, "Why don't you try it today? If it works, I can give you the recipe."
When Doctor Liu heard this, he immediately smiled and replied, "Thank you, young lady."
It turns out that His Majesty also injured his right leg in his youth, a similar ailment. It wasn't a life-threatening condition, but the discomfort was truly excruciating. No one else knew about this, but Imperial Physician Liu had been treating His Majesty and knew the details. If this method truly worked, it would be a great blessing!
He stared at Wenjiu for several more times and couldn't help but sigh. How could a girl like this get married?
If she were to marry his good-for-nothing grandson, the two of them would definitely live in harmony.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but compare in his mind his grandson who spent all day researching medicinal food with the Fourth Master who was violent and beating people on the field.
That useless guy at home... seems to be not much different, right?
In terms of status...in terms of appearance...in terms of bearing...in terms of strength...
Thinking of the last sentence, Doctor Liu suddenly felt resentful.
What a good-for-nothing brat! I’ll skin him alive when he gets home!
Wen Jiu smiled and said a few words to Doctor Liu, then gave An Luhai her mushroom soup and asked him to use it to cook noodles. While no one was paying attention, she replaced the water in the water tank with spiritual spring water.
Doctor Liu looked into An Luhai's pot without blinking. An Luhai was a little at a loss. To be honest, it was not appropriate to stare at someone's cooking skills like this, but the person staring at him was a doctor, and it was obvious that he wanted to learn from him. He really didn't know what to do and looked at Wen Jiu for help.
Wenjiu nodded slightly, indicating that he could rest assured.
Then, An Luhai worked with great anxiety under the supervision of Doctor Liu.
Doctor Liu watched and watched, then simply went into the kitchen, followed An Luhai, and stared at him without blinking.
An Luhai's hair stood on end when he saw this, but he had no choice but to continue working. His hands and feet were a little stiffer than usual.
Wenjiu looked at it funny, but didn't stop his hands.
An Luhai prepared meals for everyone, while she took care of the meals for the Fourth Master and his other masters.
When they woke up in the morning, the Fourth Master took everyone out hunting. He brought back not only two chickens, but also two wild ducks and several rabbits.
Although ducks and rabbits are very thin these days and there is not much meat left, they are still the best things at the moment.
There was still quite a bit of pheasant left from lunch; he only ate two legs to warm the wine. He only used half a pheasant to make her soup. No one would waste food, let alone meat, at this time. An Luhai placed the remaining pheasant on the top shelf, fearing it might get in the way of mice.
Wenjiu asked someone to unload the chicken. Seeing the old woman was about to throw away the head and feet, she reached out to stop her.
"Grandma, don't throw it away, it's delicious."
The old woman was stunned: "Miss, are you talking about the chicken heads and chicken feet?" Poor people like them don't eat them, so how could these nobles from the capital eat these things?
"Yeah, that's right." Wen Jiu nodded, thinking that it was not too late to eat these now, so he said, "Just put them in the basin, mother-in-law. I'll clean them up later."
After thinking for a while, he instructed another maid: "Grandma Li, please keep the head and feet of your duck, and don't throw away the internal organs. Clean them and I will use them later."
Thinking of the greasy roasted duck intestines and the fragrant braised food, my mouth is watering while drinking warm wine.
What a waste! All the chicken gizzards were thrown away earlier and she had forgotten about them. If she had put them together to make the spicy stew, it would definitely taste good.
An Luhai's noodles were now in the pot, and Doctor Liu had temporarily let him go, concentrating on watching the noodles and helping to watch the fire. Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he was startled by the appearance of Wen Jiu.
"Girl, these filthy things cannot be served on the master's table."
Wenjiu's eyes lit up: "That makes sense, the masters naturally can't eat it, I'll just eat it myself, haha."
There was a chicken head, two chicken feet, two duck heads, two duck necks, and four duck feet. The gizzards and intestines were even smaller, perfect for her to eat alone... She probably wouldn't eat the rabbit head, so she could just make a spicy rabbit head! Her eyes curved, and she was in a very good mood.
