Chapter 296 Demonstration (2)
Jing Chuchu said, "I've been bothering you for so many days, and I'm worried. Chuchu doesn't have much skill, so I made some snacks to express my gratitude."
Look, he even knows how to repay a favor. Chen Xin and his son like people who are polite and sensible the most. Military generals value affection, and Jing Chuchu's performance is indeed good.
Chen Qiu said: "Don't worry, cousin. Just think of this as your home. It doesn't matter if you are disturbing me or not."
Jing Chuchu lowered her head shyly. Shen Qiu picked up a piece of cake and said with a smile, "Then I won't be polite." Just as she was about to take a bite, she suddenly heard a voice from behind: "Brother."
Shen Qiu turned around and saw Shen Miao had come over at some point and was standing at the edge of the yard, followed by four maids, staring at him with cold eyes. For some reason, Shen Qiu felt guilty and subconsciously put down the cake in his hand and asked, "Why is my sister here?"
Shen Miao said nothing and walked towards them. When she got closer, she saw four maids holding a basket each. Shen Xin asked, "Jiao Jiao, what's in your basket?"
"It's a bit cold today. I thought you'd all be thirsty from sword practice, so I made some soup." Shen Miao glanced at Shen Qiu calmly. Shen Qiu felt a chill on his back. Shen Miao said, "Let the soldiers come over and have some soup. I've been stewing mushroom and chicken soup all morning. It's good for warming up the body."
"I'll go and call them!" Ah Zhi, who was standing next to Shen Qiu, was overjoyed when he saw this and ran to the other end of the training ground. In a short while, dozens of soldiers in the yard followed him.
Shen Miao asked Jingzhe and the others to serve soup to everyone. Those soldiers were the most capable subordinates of Shen Xin and Shen Qiu, so they were placed directly in the general's mansion. The soldiers were very happy to see that there was soup to drink. They smiled and said, "Young lady, you are so considerate of us! Young lady is really kind-hearted!"
In fact, rough people are the easiest to bribe and win over. Shen Miao knows this very well. Ah Zhi took a sip of the soup and exclaimed, "This soup is really good!" He drank it in a few gulps and handed it to Jingzhe, saying, "Another bowl!"
Jingzhe rolled his eyes at Azhi and said, "Of course it tastes good. This is brewed by our girl herself."
Seeing this, Shen Xin and Shen Qiu were stunned at first. Shen Qiu said, "Did my sister cook it herself?"
“Yeah,” Shen Miao said calmly.
"Damn it, stop drinking!" Chen Xin yelled, "Don't drink!" He yelled at Gu Yu, "Give me a big bowl!"
Luo Xueyan had just tasted Bai Lusheng's soup and was also very surprised: "Jiaojiao, you actually made this soup yourself? How did your cooking skills improve so much?"
The aroma of the soup wafted out, naturally making everyone salivate. Shen Miao lowered her eyes and smiled, "Just cook it as you like." In the first few years of her previous life, she had tried every possible way to please Fu Xiuyi, honing her culinary skills. Later, she went to Qin State and learned many rare dishes under the pressure of those people. Speaking of which, she had at least seen the cuisine of the royal families of both countries, and her vision and skills were much more advanced than those of ordinary people. As for the girl from a humble family who had never even visited Dingjing City... Shen Miao's gaze swept over Jing Chuchu. Jing Chuchu stood behind a pillar. This time, she didn't lower her head. Instead, she bit her lip and looked at the group of rough people who were drinking happily by themselves with tears in her eyes, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
The soup cooked by the eldest daughter herself was much more precious than the dessert made by the cousin. Moreover, Shen Miao also gave a portion to all the soldiers in the courtyard. In comparison, Jing Chuchu, who only made desserts for Shen Xin and his son, was really too stingy and too unpresentable.
Jing Chuchu was ashamed and angry, and her eyes looked at Shen Miao with a hint of hatred.
