Chapter 72: Miss Xu's Craftsmanship

Later, several boys who were on good terms with Xu Nan also came over shamelessly, causing other young masters to come over. It was really the same barbecue, but what they grilled was incomparable to what was grilled in the Chengguo Mansion!

Who doesn't want to eat delicious food? It's a rare opportunity!

Besides, we are in the enclosure now, and there is no need to be as restrained and serious as in the capital.

Xu Muhua watched the ingredients she prepared disappear at a speed visible to the naked eye, and her heart was bleeding!

She didn't even have time to eat a few pieces, how come they all went into other people's mouths! Did she drool in vain?

Pei Shaorong saw her standing aside with her sleeves rolled up and watching the people who were busy, and couldn't help laughing pitifully.

Xu Muhua heard her laughter and looked at her with resentful eyes: "Arong, you are so heartless."

Pei Shaorong smiled and said: "Okay, don't be sad. Since we came here to grill and eat your ingredients, we naturally have to replenish them. Let's bring all our ingredients over. Anyway, everyone is grilling here."

Xu Muhua's eyes lit up immediately.

Okay, okay, although they may not handle it as well as she does, it's better than nothing. Putting the soles on the grill, sprinkling various spices, and dipping them in various sauces can become delicious, not to mention that these are real ingredients.

Pei Shaorong called a few friends to move most of their own ingredients over, and the others followed suit.

Now it's good, it's getting more and more lively.

The emperor on the other side noticed it.

"What's going on over there? Why is it so lively?"

Zhao Chengye took a look and replied, "Your Majesty, it's the eldest daughter of the Duke of Cheng's Mansion. She prepared all the ingredients, and then made a grill, and put the ingredients on the rack to slowly grill them. The taste is great. So everyone gathered around."

The emperor couldn't help but get interested when he heard it, and asked, "Isn't it just barbecue? Which chef can't make it? Is it necessary to go to the Duke of Cheng's Mansion?"

What the emperor wanted to say was, is it shameful to be attracted by the tricks of a little girl?

Zhao Chengye showed a look of shame on his face, and said a little embarrassedly: "Father, I tried it and found that the cooking skills of the eldest lady of the Chengguo Mansion are indeed extraordinary. And she can also bake those vegetables and fruits very deliciously."

If he was not really embarrassed, he would have wanted to squeeze in.

Although he was born in the royal family, he had been living a life of luxury since childhood, eating delicacies from land and sea every day, and had eaten all kinds of delicious food. But the things baked by Miss Xu, although they seem ordinary and simple, taste really good, making people unable to stop.

The emperor was really curious this time. He stood up and said, "Since you said so, I really want to see if Miss Xu's cooking skills are really that good. Let's go and take a look!"

The queen and several concubines couldn't stop, so they had to follow them, and there were also several ministers with them, in a mighty manner.

But everyone at Xu Muhua's place was so excited that they had no time to pay attention to anything else. When the emperor and his entourage approached, the attendants saw that everyone was not paying attention and shouted that the emperor had arrived, which woke everyone up.

Before they could salute, the emperor said, "No need to be polite, everyone enjoy tonight. I heard that Miss Xu is an excellent barbecue chef, so I came here to see her, but I don't know if I can have the pleasure of tasting her." Xu Muhua

said this!

For a moment, she wondered if the old emperor wanted to take the opportunity to avenge Princess Qingning. Otherwise, how could he say such a thing? Isn't this putting her on the fire?

Cursing in her heart, Xu Muhua stood up at the first moment and said, "It is my blessing that the emperor is willing to try my cooking skills! I will grill a skewer for the emperor, but I don't know what kind of flavor or meat the emperor likes?"

Xu's mother was so anxious when she heard this.

How could this child ask the emperor what he likes to eat?

The attendant hurriedly said, "It's okay, Miss Xu, just watch and grill a few skewers."

Xu Muhua seemed to have noticed nothing and smiled and said, "Okay! I will grill the ones that everyone says are delicious for the emperor to taste!"

When the emperor and his entourage arrived, everyone quieted down. There was no more excitement just now. They all stood aside awkwardly, not even daring to sit down. Some people who had roasted half of their food also stood up, not daring to move.

"Hey, whose meat is this? If you don't turn it over, it will get burnt!"

Xu Muhua shouted, and hurriedly turned over the ones that were about to be burnt.

When she shouted, the others first looked at the emperor cautiously, and when they saw that there was nothing unusual on his face, they slowly sat down again, slowly relaxed, and became active again after a while. When

one person moved, the others naturally followed suit.

Xu Muhua concentrated on roasting the meat.

She picked a string of venison, a string of wild boar, and a string of pheasant. These three were probably the most representative. It would be even better if there was mutton.

These meats were neither all lean nor all fat. There was a mixture of fat and lean, with more lean and less fat. The fat part was roasted with a slightly burnt surface. When you took a bite, the fat burst in your mouth. It was fat but not greasy, and the burnt aroma was charming.

It didn't take long for Xu Muhua to roast the meat. He gave it to the emperor while it was still hot, and said in a very familiar manner: "Your Majesty, please try it quickly. It tastes better when it's hot!"

The attendant wanted to take it to test the poison, but was stopped by the emperor.

He didn't care, he just took it and tasted it, and soon there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Xu Muhua said with a smile: "It's a pity that the Qiyang Grass is gone, otherwise the emperor would have tasted the charcoal-grilled Qiyang Grass."

"Oh? Qiyang Grass can be roasted and eaten?"

A boy came out from the side, "Father, yes, it's delicious. I just ate five skewers!"

He stretched out his five chubby fingers.

The emperor deliberately frowned, "Then why didn't you leave one for father?"

The fat boy was stunned for a moment, and replied stupidly: "Father didn't say he wanted to eat it!"

This boy is the ninth prince, and the youngest prince. His biological mother is Concubine Shu. However, Concubine Shu did not accompany the emperor this time, but stayed in the palace to serve the Empress Dowager.

"Xiaojiu, come here."

The queen waved at him.

The ninth prince walked over with a clatter, and the queen warned: "You can't eat too much, otherwise you will get angry."

"Mother, Xiaojiu knows."

Because he was full!
