Mu Sili thought it would be better to give the prince a heads-up, otherwise what if he thought she did it on purpose? Wouldn't that be what Madam Ling wanted?
Don't think she doesn't know that the reason why Nanny Ling asked her to personally cook two dishes for the prince was to make the prince angry, and then she would go to the prince and say good things to him, making him grateful to her.
She doesn't look like a fool, right? Why would Ling Ma have such an idea? A servant should behave like a servant, otherwise the master will be embarrassed.
"Your Highness, why don't you just not eat what I cook? I'm clumsy and haven't cooked well even a few times. But Madam said you wanted to eat what I cooked, so I really tried my best."
The prince was a little confused. When did he tell Madam Ling that he wanted to eat the dishes cooked by Mu Sili? How come he didn’t know?
Thinking of what Ling Ma said, that Mu Sili offered to make two dishes for him to try, he couldn't tell who was telling the truth.
"It's okay, I'll give it a try. I have great confidence in you."
Mu Sili's face froze. Does this count as rising to the challenge?
Even though she told him that the food she cooked was hard to swallow, he still wanted to try it. It was obvious that he really liked her. She just hoped that he would not back down after seeing the food she cooked.
"Since Your Highness has said so, I have nothing more to say. But if you don't like the food, please tell me. Don't force it.
I know what skills I have, and Momo knows them too, but she insists on me doing them. She is not afraid at all that I might not do them well and make you unhappy.
But it's not easy for Nanny. Not only does she manage the entire Yuqing Palace, but if she weren't your wet nurse, I would have thought she was the master of Yuqing Palace."
The prince was confused. How did this matter escalate to this point? Nanny Ling was just a servant. Who dared to say that she was the master of Yuqing Palace?
If it weren't for the fact that she took care of him diligently, he would have dealt with her long ago. Why would he let her act so arrogantly in Yuqing Palace?
The reason why she asked her to cook two dishes for him to try was probably because she wanted him to be angry with her, and then she would say a few good words to him, and she would definitely be grateful to her.
This servant is a servant, how can he be the master's master? If she really lets her little tricks succeed, then he will definitely be controlled by her in the future.
Mu Sili didn't expect that she was just taking the opportunity to say a few words unfavorable to Ling Ma, nor did she think that the prince would really be dissatisfied with her. She didn't expect that the prince would think of those things himself.
"Why do you care about what she says? She is just a servant serving me. You are my person, the daughter of the Princess of Yuqing Palace. She should respect you.
Now that I know about this, it won't happen again. You've already made this sheep, so bring it up for me to see. I want to see what you can do."
The prince thought that with the guidance of the maids and the cook, Mu Sili would at most just fry a few dishes, and he never thought that she would be in charge of the whole process.
Therefore, when Mu Sili asked Cuizhu to bring the two dishes she made, he was conflicted.
How could he not tell what this dark substance was made of? Could it be some high-end ingredient?
"Your Highness, what's with that expression? Don't you recognize it? No problem, I'll explain it to you. This is roast duck, and this is braised pork. Come and try them."
Mu Sili's face was full of anticipation for him to pick up his chopsticks. He picked up the chopsticks tremblingly and was about to pick up the food. Cuizhu couldn't bear to watch.
She had tasted it, but she would rather taste poison than taste that dish, it was too horrible.
"Your Highness, why don't you just not eat? I asked Cuizhu to make two desserts that are much better than mine. Why don't you try that one?"
After all, this was her future destination, so she still hoped that he wouldn't have any bad impression of her.
"I know my own limitations, and the dishes I cook are truly unpalatable. If Your Highness doesn't mind, I'll cook for you once I've learned how to cook."
The prince breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that after eating that dish, he would be so scared that he would never come to Yunxia Palace again. After all, it looked too scary.
"Why don't I try a bite? You worked so hard on it, after all. Even though it doesn't look very good, I'd feel guilty if I didn't try it."
Mu Sili didn't say anything this time. It was he who wanted to eat it. She had already reminded him. Since he didn't listen to her advice, he might as well try the "delicacies of the world". She wouldn't eat a single bite anyway.
"Then your highness, please try it. If it is really hard to swallow, I will ask Cuizhu to take it away."
"good."
The prince took a deep breath and stretched out his chopsticks to the braised pork. He thought that it was black because too much sugar was added during the coloring, but when he put it in his mouth, he regretted it.
He would rather drink the crescent moon than feel the taste of being worse than death. He should listen to her. Why should he give her face?
"Your Highness, what's wrong? Is it not tasty? Yes, I know I don't have the talent, but don't worry, I will continue to work hard and strive to make food that you can eat as soon as possible."
The prince was so scared that he almost dropped his chopsticks on the ground. He felt that this kind of thing was enough once and there was really no need to do it again. He was afraid.
"No need. If you don't have that talent, then you don't have that talent. You follow me not to cook for me, but to enjoy my life. These are made by the servants. If you really want to do something, just make snacks for me."
The prince was really scared. Since she didn't have the talent for cooking, she shouldn't bother him. He was busy with official duties every day, and there was no need to make himself unhappy over such a small matter.
"But Madam Ling said that if I don't do it for you, she will let someone else do it. I am a little greedy and want to dominate you, so I'd better go and learn."
"How can I trust the words of a servant like Ling? I love you the most. Even if you do nothing, I will not be dissatisfied with you.
Just focus on serving me. Let the servants do what they can. What you need to do now is to quickly give me a child."
Mu Sili smiled embarrassedly. As soon as today was over, his son and daughter came, and she hadn't had time to accustom herself to them. Nanny Ling dared to act like a master in front of her, and she would make her pay.
"I'm afraid that Madam Ling will punish me for this tomorrow. I know she's a servant, but she raised you, and I don't want to make things too awkward with her."
The prince held her in his arms with heartache. Indeed, what Nanny Ling had done recently had gone a bit too far. Was she trying to control the women in her backyard and make them obey her orders?
A servant should act like a servant. If she wants to surpass her master to show her status, it depends on whether her master is willing.
