She had already bitten Xiao Jinyan twice~ Xiao Jinyan tapped her plump forehead, "What are you thinking about?"
How could Shen Chuwei have the nerve to say that she had misunderstood? She raised her delicate little face, her eyebrows curved, "Your Highness is so tall, I have to look up to see your handsome face." By the way, she praised him, flattery never wears out! Xiao Jinyan chuckled: "I am a man, so I am naturally taller. It is difficult for a woman to marry if she is too tall."
If Xiao Jinyu heard this, he would definitely say, Brother, if there really is a girl as tall as you, and if she is hard to get married, I will support her.
Chunxi prepared breakfast early in the morning. Since the prince was staying overnight, she specially made steamed buns.
Although Shen Chuwei didn't know why Xiao Jinyan wanted her to accompany him for meals and made her get up early, when she saw the steamed buns, all her resentment disappeared.
When eating, she would only pick up her chopsticks after the prince did, but it did not affect her eating speed.
Xiao Jinyan ate two of the six steamed buns, and the remaining four went into her stomach.
Just when she was eating the fourth one, Xiao Jinyan said, "Eat less, it's easy to get indigestion."
"Don't worry, Your Highness. My digestive function is excellent." Shen Chuwei said as she took a bite. She ate very happily because she ate the most.
During this period, Xiao Jinyan mentioned that Shen Chuwei should move to another place because it was a bit far from his bedroom and it would take a lot of time to go back and forth for meals.
How could Shen Chuwei be willing to give up the small vegetable garden, chicken coop and fish pond in Xiyun Pavilion? She would definitely refuse, and she refused very tactfully.
"Your Highness, it would be better to move to another place. The Hehuan Palace has a large area. We can grow vegetables and raise chickens and ducks. Maybe we can even raise something else."
When Xiao Jinyan heard this, he stopped helping Nodang Fang. He really couldn't stand the smell of the chicken coop.
After finishing breakfast, Xiao Jinyan left Xiyun Pavilion. Before leaving, he said, "For lunch, I will come to Xiyun Pavilion."
Shen Chuwei bowed and said, "Then I will wait for Your Highness."
After Xiao Jinyan left, Shen Chuwei immediately lay down on the bed and continued to take a nap.
* The queen's taste became more and more picky, and she couldn't eat any of the food in front of her.
Qingying looked at the untouched food and advised, "Madam, please eat a little."
The queen shook her head and said, "No more food, let's go to the East Palace."
Qingying knew that the Queen couldn't help herself and wanted the Prince to prepare some side dishes.
The Queen's procession marched into the East Palace in a grand procession.
Xiao Jinyan was having breakfast when he heard the queen coming and hurriedly stood up to greet her.
Over the years, the Queen seldom came to see Xiao Jinyan on her own initiative, but this month she came twice.
"Your son pays respects to the Queen Mother, may the Queen Mother be blessed with good health and happiness."
"Get up." The queen glanced at the dining table, "Is the prince having dinner?"
Xiao Jinyan nodded, "Yes, mother, do you want to have dinner with us?"
The queen was a little embarrassed at first, but the prince took the initiative to bring it up, which eased the embarrassment.
"It has been a long time since I have dined with the Crown Prince. Today is a good time to have dinner together, so let's have dinner together." As she said this, she sat down at the dining table.
Liu Xi asked the maid to prepare another set of bowls and chopsticks.
Xiao Jinyan also sat down and waited for the Queen to start eating first.
The queen picked up her chopsticks and looked at the food in front of her. There were a few items she had never seen before, so she picked up a dish that looked delicious, picked up a piece with curiosity, put it in her mouth and chewed it. The taste was better than she had imagined.
She asked curiously, "What kind of dish is this?"
Xiao Jinyan: "Mother, this is stir-fried green pepper with dried tofu."
"It tastes good." The queen couldn't help but pick up a few more pieces with her chopsticks and ate half a bowl of porridge.
Xiao Jinyan watched the Queen eating breakfast. This was the first time he had eaten at the same table with the Queen since he came back. They had never eaten at the same table before.
She didn't talk while eating or sleeping. After breakfast, the queen finally said, "The chefs in the prince's palace are getting better and better."
The Queen took a sip of tea and asked, "Do you still have those side dishes you sent me some time ago?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinyan guessed that the Queen came for this purpose, because normally the Queen seldom came to the East Palace.
Xiao Jinyan: "Mother, no, not yet. If I had, I would have Liu Xi send it to you."
The queen was a little disappointed when she heard this. "That's good. You go ahead and do your work. I'll be back soon."
After Xiao Jinyan saw the queen off, he went about his own business.
The Queen was wandering around the East Palace and passed by Xinlan Palace. She planned to go and see her niece, because Lan'er was inevitably a little sad about the appointment of a concubine.
When the queen came, Shen Mingzhu was also there, and she and Chang Liangdi bowed to the queen together.
"May the Queen be blessed with good health."
The queen glanced at Shen Mingzhu and sat down on the couch.
This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~
The maid brought tea, and Chang Liangdi served it to her, "Aunt, have some tea."
The queen nodded and took the tea.
Chang Liangdi sat down with her skirt lifted up and asked with concern: "Aunt, has your appetite improved recently?"
The queen sighed, "It's still the same as always. I have no appetite for anything. The food in the imperial kitchen is not original at all."
Speaking of this, Shen Mingzhu still remembered that she was demoted because she cooked meals for the queen.
She suddenly thought of Shen Chuwei, and she took a step forward and said, "Queen, I heard that Shen Liangdi is a good cook. The Queen has a poor appetite, so you can ask her to cook some delicious meals."
The Queen raised her eyes to look at Shen Mingzhu, who also remembered the stupid things she had done, "Your cooking skills are not good, how much better can Shen Liangdi's cooking skills be?"
Shen Mingzhu lowered her head even more, "Replying to the Queen, Shen Liangdi has been in poor health since childhood and was fostered in the countryside. Shen Liangdi once told me that she knows some cooking skills."
Shen Mingzhu made it very clear that it was Shen Chuwei herself who said she could cook. If she couldn't cook at that time, it was Shen Chuwei who lied and it had nothing to do with her.
The queen believed what he said and ordered, "Qingying, tell Concubine Shen Liangdi."
"Yes." Qingying took the order and went to Xiyun Pavilion.
It was Qingying's first time to come to Xiyun Pavilion. The journey was much farther than that to Xinlan Palace, so she was greeted by Chunxi.
"Madame Qingying, what brings you here?"
Qingying is a maid who comes with the Queen as a dowry. Given her status, her words and actions show that she is calm and measured.
"Is Shen Liangdi here?"
"Yes." Chunxi took Qingying to the inner room, and she lifted the gauze curtain and walked in.
"My lady, Aunt Qingying is here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qingying walked in.
Upon hearing this, Shen Chuwei immediately got off the couch.
"Madam Qingying."
Qingying bowed, "Shen Liangdi, the Queen has heard that Shen Liangdi is an excellent cook and wants to try her cooking."
Shen Chu was stunned for a moment. She could cook, but only Chunxi and Xiao Jinyan knew it, and they would not tell the Queen.
How did the Queen know that she could cook? "Madame Qingying, how did the Queen know that I could cook?"
