Rong Shuo, who was named by Old Prince Yun, was looking at the big fish on the chopping board with a subtle expression.
The fish was still alive, and from time to time it would slap the chopping board with its tail, making a crisp "pa pa pa" sound.
Rong Shuo: “…”
After Old Prince Yun finished washing the vegetables, he noticed that Rong Shuo hadn't started yet. He frowned slightly and asked in confusion:
"Rong Shuo, why are you still standing there? Can't you cut open the belly of a fish?"
"I don't know how." Rong Shuo nodded, then looked at Old Prince Yun and humbly asked, "Grandpa, can you teach me?"
Upon hearing this, Old Prince Yun's eyes fell on his pair of fair and bony hands. It was obvious that he was a young man who had never touched water.
That won't work.
If Zheng'er marries him in the future, how can it be possible if he doesn't have good cooking skills?
"Okay."
Old Prince Yun did not make things too difficult for him. He personally demonstrated to him how to cut open the fish's belly, take out the internal organs, wash it clean, and then scrape off the scales, among other actions.
Soon, a well-organized fish successfully appeared in front of Rong Shuo.
Old Prince Yun turned around and looked at Rong Shuo with a look that said, "Have you learned this, kid?"
Rong Shuo nodded seriously, "I learned it, Grandpa."
When Old Prince Yun heard this, he wondered, could it be that this dignified Emperor also had a talent for cooking? He immediately stepped aside and pointed to another live fish: "Then you come."
"etc."
Yun Zheng called him, stood up and walked to Rong Shuo, took out two hairbands from the storage space, and first rolled up his sleeves, then tied them tightly with the hairbands to prevent the sleeves from slipping down and getting stained with water.
Rong Shuo lowered his eyes and saw her serious look. Her long and slightly curled eyelashes trembled slightly, and his heart suddenly felt sweet.
Old Prince Yun: "..."
Although my precious granddaughter favors Rong Shuo, I have to admit that they look really good together!
However, Old Prince Yun quickly discarded this idea and stared at Rong Shuo with his old eyes, as if he wanted to torture him severely with his eyes.
It's absolutely impossible to kidnap his granddaughter so early!
Yun Zheng had just finished tying Rong Shuo's sleeves when her grandfather ruthlessly pushed her out of the kitchen. He grumbled, "You little bitch, don't bother us cooking here. Go back to your Yunfei Pavilion and wait."
Yun Zheng smiled and tried to defend herself, "Grandpa, I'll just watch. I won't disturb you."
Old Prince Yun said unhappily, "That idiot has been staring at you. You'll distract him if you're here. Go away, go away."
Rong Shuo: “?” Silly boy.
With no other choice, she left the kitchen.
To her surprise, she saw Yueji, who was wearing a housekeeper's clothes at the moment and staring at her with red eyes.
"Young lady..."
"Hey." Yun Zheng responded softly. She opened her arms and hugged Yueji who rushed over to her. As a result, Yueji cried so hard that she almost couldn't breathe.
"Woo woo woo."
She raised her hand and touched the back of Yueji's head, teasing her deliberately, "My little Yueji, please don't cry. You look so ugly when you cry. You are so beautiful when you smile."
With a 'puff' sound, Yueji burst into laughter instantly.
"Little Miss, I thought you wouldn't come back."
As soon as she finished speaking, Yun Zheng flicked her forehead with her finger and warned her fiercely, "You can't curse your little lady like that!"
The two smiled at each other.
While Grandpa and Rong Shuo were cooking, Yun Zheng took Xiao Yueji to chat.
Time seemed to pass in a flash, and the sky had already darkened. Yun Zheng, who was in the Yunfei Pavilion, had a bad feeling in her heart.
It's been so long, and grandpa hasn't sent anyone to invite me to dinner, and Rong Shuo hasn't shown up either. Could something have happened?
"Let's go and take a look." Yun Zheng was worried and said to Yueji.
The two of them walked towards the kitchen. The closer they got to the kitchen, the louder the noise became.
Faintly, she heard her grandfather's voice angrily scolding Rong Shuo, and he kept repeating the same curse: "You little bastard, I told you to cut the fish, not fry it!"
"You broke all four pots! Are you born with supernatural powers? And these vegetables, I asked you to stir-fry them twice, and you actually made them fly!"
"You're making me so mad! I originally thought you had no cooking skills, but I didn't expect you couldn't even enter the kitchen!"
The old man roared: "I just made a few dishes, why did you pour them out?!"
Another voice, without any confidence, rang out: "Grandpa, because the food I fried fell into that dish and got stained with burnt ash, it was not clean, so I... fell down."
The old man choked and was so angry that he almost exploded. He pointed at him and cursed repeatedly: "Stinky boy, stinky boy!"
Just as Yun Zheng arrived at the kitchen door, her grandfather's angry voice rang out:
"What are you going to give me to compensate for my food?"
She looked up and saw that the originally noble and elegant man was now like a poor little thing, listening obediently to the lecture.
There were a few spots of black dust on his face. He held a green vegetable leaf in his left hand and a spatula in his right hand. His dark eyes showed a hint of guilt.
He seemed to notice Yun Zheng's arrival, and when he looked sideways, his gaze happened to meet Yun Zheng's.
Just when Old Prince Yun was about to curse a few more words, he saw Rong Shuo turned his head to look at the door. He followed his gaze and found that his precious granddaughter had come, so he immediately shut his mouth.
"grandfather."
She called out, then stepped into the kitchen, her eyes casually sweeping around the mess on the floor.
Well, there is really a hole in the pot.
Old Prince Yun felt a little guilty. After all, it was he who taught people how to cook, but now things had come to this point where they couldn't even serve a decent dish.
The old man said unnaturally: "Zheng'er, I'm afraid dinner..."
Rong Shuo spoke first, "Zheng'er, it's me who made such a mess. Grandpa has tried his best to teach me. I'm afraid we won't be able to have dinner today."
The old man looked at him in surprise.
Rong Shuo restrained his expression and continued, "However, I will study very seriously with Grandpa these days."
Upon hearing this, the old man's eyes widened like bells. "Stay a few more days?!"
"Grandpa, what do you think of Ah Shuo's proposal?" Yun Zheng tried hard to suppress her laughter, looked at her grandfather, and asked the question even though she knew the answer.
"It will take a long time for his talent to awaken. There's no need to rush." Old Prince Yun waved his hand politely, then raised his eyes to stare at Rong Shuo and said with a serious face, "You don't need to come learn to cook from me tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow."
"Listen to grandpa." Rong Shuo was stunned.
When Prince Yun heard this, he finally felt relieved.
He looked up at Rong Shuo, who looked a little embarrassed, walked over and patted his arm heavily, racking his brains to come up with words of comforting praise.
"You have a good attitude today."
