After participating in the exchange competition, Ye Han and Yue Chengyu went back home. They had been out for most of the day. Ye Han was fine, but Yue Chengyu was not. It was a luxury for him to be able to spare such a long time.
As soon as the two returned to the mansion, the housekeeper came to greet them, "This old servant greets the prince and princess."
"Excuse me, what happened?" Yue Chengyu frowned, but then relaxed his brows. If nothing was wrong, the butler wouldn't have been waiting for them at the door. After all, a butler has a lot of work to do.
So when Yue Chengyu saw Butler Wu waiting at the door, he subconsciously thought that something might have gone wrong while he was away. But then he thought, if it was really an urgent matter, the butler would have sent someone to look for him long ago.
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince's Mansion has sent some pork for Your Highness and Princess to try." The housekeeper was very surprised when he heard about pork at first, but then he remembered the news that came out a few months ago, and he felt that it was not so difficult to understand.
Indeed, the news that the Emperor had asked the Crown Prince to experiment with a new pig-raising method hadn't been deliberately concealed; almost everyone in the capital who was even slightly informed knew about it. It wasn't surprising that Butler Wu knew about it.
"Oh? Pigs can be slaughtered so soon?" Ye Han was surprised. This was Da Yue, not the modern world where hormones are everywhere in feeds that can make animals and plants mature quickly. If they were fed normally, it would take at least a year for them to be slaughtered.
"Well, since it's been delivered, let's try it tonight." Yue Chengyu knew that the prince was going to kill one to try in the next two days, but he didn't know the specific day.
After all, the normal time to market is too long. Kill one first to try. If there is really no special taste, then you can expand the scale and promote it as soon as possible. If not, you can stop the loss as soon as possible.
Ye Han looked at Yue Chengyu's calm expression, then thought about it and understood why there was pork to eat so soon.
"Butler Wu, please ask the kitchen to save a piece of pork ribs for me and send it to me." Ye Han suddenly spoke as if he had thought of something.
"Yes, Princess." Yue Chengyu watched the butler leave and jokingly asked as he walked away, "Princess, are you planning to cook for yourself?"
"I suddenly remembered that I haven't used the stove in the kitchen since the installation was completed. I have to use the stove at least once. It can't be just for decoration." I bought all kinds of pots and pans for the kitchen. Except for the faucet I used to wash the fruit last time and the refrigerator for storing fruit snacks, the rest are just for decoration so far.
"Can you do it?" Yue Chengyu looked at Ye Han suspiciously, wondering whether the food made by his princess was edible.
When Ye Han heard this, he thought that his cooking skills were only good enough to be eaten. He hadn't cooked for more than ten years. He felt a little guilty and said, "It should be okay. I used to be able to cook."
"Before? General Ye actually let you cook?" After saying this, Yue Chengyu suddenly realized, "Wait? Could it be that you are talking about..."
Ye Han obviously understood the meaning of what Yue Chengyu didn't say and nodded.
Yue Chengyu looked at Ye Han and nodded. He didn't know what to say for a moment, but still asked worriedly, "Are you sure you can do it now?"
"It should be okay. Your Majesty can try it tonight."
"Can I not eat?"
When Ye Han heard this, he gave Yue Chengyu a sweet smile and slowly uttered three words, "No."
Ye Han was a man of action. She said she wanted to cook, and she started searching for tutorials on her phone as soon as she entered the house. Yue Chengyu had gone to take care of some other things, so as soon as he entered the house, he saw his princess looking at her phone seriously. When he walked closer, he saw a tutorial on how to cook spare ribs on the screen.
Yue Chengyu opened his mouth, but eventually chose to keep it quiet. He mentally persuaded himself, "Forget it, let the princess do whatever she wants. It's just a little unpalatable, it's not poison."
Then, Yue Chengyu watched Ye Han, who had finished watching the tutorial, stand up and walk into the kitchen, and take out the spare ribs that the housekeeper had sent from the refrigerator.
Boil water in a pot, blanch the ribs, remove them and wash off the blood foam... Yue Chengyu stood by the kitchen counter, watching Ye Han's operation, although a little unfamiliar but not bad, and felt a little relieved.
Then he observed all the kitchen equipment used by Ye Han. Although Ye Han had already introduced it, Yue Chengyu couldn't help but sigh in his heart when watching the actual operation, "It's so convenient and very hygienic."
When the meal started and all the dishes were served, the sweet and sour pork ribs made by Ye Han stood out among all the dishes, because among all the dishes that looked so good, Ye Han's pork ribs were so ordinary that they were quite eye-catching.
Objectively speaking, Ye Han's performance was not that bad, it was just at the normal level of most people nowadays, but the chefs next to her were all at the level of imperial chefs.
"Quick, Your Majesty, try it."
Yue Chengyu looked at Ye Han's expectant eyes and picked up the sweet and sour pork ribs made by Ye Han with his chopsticks. He took a bite and was a little surprised. "The princess cooked it very well." Later, he added in his heart, "It's much better than expected."
"Right, I didn't expect that after all these years, I still haven't failed. It seems that I still have a little talent." Ye Han was very happy to be praised. After all, who doesn't want to be recognized for something they worked so hard on? Although this kind of affirmation is not very useful, it definitely makes you feel good to be praised.
Of course, the two of them didn't forget the main thing. "What do you think of this pork, Princess?"
"It was quite successful. There's no fishy smell at all. What do you think, Your Highness?"
"Well, it's worth promoting. For Dai Viet, the cost of raising pigs is much lower than that of sheep. Now that the taste of pork has improved, ordinary people should be able to eat meat every once in a while in a couple of years."
Yue Chengyu was very happy after tasting the pork sent by the prince. Although Yue Chengyu had eaten the pork bought by Ye Han, relying on Ye Han to buy pork could not benefit the entire Dai Viet after all, so he could only taste it for his own family.
The piece of pork sent by the prince is different. It means that this kind of pork without fishy smell can be raised on a large scale in the Dai Viet Dynasty, making it affordable for more people.
"Things will get better and better. Although it won't be possible for ordinary people to have meat for every meal in a short period of time, it's definitely developing in a good direction." Ye Han was in a good mood.
Because this is the method I provided, although it was just a method and the prince and others followed up on the details, but no matter what, I was involved.
Ye Han feels a great sense of accomplishment for being able to do his best to make Dayue better and the people's lives better.
