Chapter 138 I Became Your Cook
When the dishes were served, several people stared at them, wanting to know what dishes were made with lotus root.
When Zheng Sisi came in, several people were still discussing.
"The inside of the lotus root is also white, and it has so many holes."
"No, you see this is gray, how can it change color?"
"What do you think they taste like?"
Zheng Sisi: "If you want to know what lotus root tastes like, just eat it and you'll know."
Zhong Ruiyu ran to Zheng Sisi's seat and swept the round stool with his sleeves: "Miss Zheng, we were waiting for you to come. We didn't dare to pick up our chopsticks."
Zheng Sisi rolled her eyes at him and said, "Eat them all, and then tell me which dish is the most delicious."
After hearing this, several people picked up their chopsticks and started fighting, commenting while eating.
"This lotus root slice is delicious, very crispy and fragrant."
"This one is delicious too, why is it so stringy?"
"This one is also stringy and spicy, but it's very satisfying."
The third prince ate fast but elegantly, while the other two were just showing off their food like crazy.
Zheng Sisi: "You two should eat slowly. If there's nothing left, we can just stir-fry more."
"Uh-huh."
The two of them nodded while eating and couldn't stop eating.
Watching them eating broke Zheng Sisi's perception of the rules of the rich and powerful. They were not noblemen, but beggars who had not eaten for years.
The two of them didn't care about what others thought and continued to show off their cooking.
After the four of them finished the dishes on the table, the Third Prince was still very elegant. Zheng Zhiyuan and Zhong Ruiyu both sat very straight, with their bellies sticking out and their hands rubbing their bodies in circles.
"Burp, burp, I'm so full, it's so delicious."
If they were sitting on chairs with backrests, I believe these two people would collapse in the chairs.
Zheng Sisi was speechless: "If you two keep eating like this, your stomachs will get broken sooner or later."
Zhong Ruiyu: "Don't worry, you don't cook every day, it won't hurt."
Zheng Sisi: "It seems like I have become your cook!"
Zheng Zhiyuan: "No, you are a considerate, smart and lovely cousin."
Zheng Sisi glanced at him and said, "You are so good at talking. When will you find me a cousin's wife?"
Zheng Zhiyuan said weakly: "I'm still young, haha."
After a few people bickered for a while, Zheng Sisi asked, "Do you think this lotus root is okay for cooking?"
Several people nodded at the same time: "Okay."
The third prince added: "No one has ever eaten it before, and it tastes so good, it must be a good seller."
Zheng Sisi: "Well, I plan to teach you two methods first, plus a few dishes I taught before, which should last for a while. After the vegetable seeds and rice are transplanted, the salted duck eggs and preserved eggs will be ready to eat. Then I will research some new dishes."
The third prince asked, "Have you prepared the things for the trip to the manor the day after tomorrow?"
Zheng Sisi: "It's ready. I plan to plant corn and sweet potatoes on the two farms, and also some vegetables."
The Third Prince: "Okay."
Zheng Sisi asked Zheng Zhiyuan and Zhong Ruiyu: "Have you planted all the corn seeds you brought back today?"
Zheng Zhiyuan said: "I planted it. When I went back, my grandfather had not come back yet. I told him that I wanted to plant corn in the garden. My grandmother and my mother didn't say anything and even arranged for a servant to help me.
When my grandfather came back, he praised me a lot. He also said that I had made him proud in the palace today. Among so many ministers, only he and the Grand Tutor were given seats, and everyone else was envious.
He also said that many people came to him to ask for help and wanted to buy some corn seeds, but he refused them all. You don't know that your family has praised you as a fairy that only exists in heaven.
My grandfather also told me to follow you and farm the land. I would do whatever you said.
Zhong Ruiyu also interrupted and said, “Yes, yes, my father also said this, and he said that if I didn’t listen to you, he would break my legs.
You don’t know, my dad used to say I was a playboy and a spendthrift, but today he saw me growing corn and praised me. I felt like he wasn’t my real dad and that he had been replaced by someone else. When he wanted to hug me, I was so scared that I ran away. It was so scary.”
After saying this, he patted his chest.
