Shaohua is Junqing

Chapter 107

In an elegant room on the second floor of Yumo Gourmet Restaurant, the emperor, Fang Qingyan, Beitang Mo Ran and Siyu were sitting around the table.

"Your Majesty, Fang Chongyuan, this is our restaurant's new dish, called 'Potato and Pork Soup'."

"This name is easy to understand."

"Although the ingredients are simple, the taste is very good. Your Majesty, please try it first. If you think it is delicious, you can give it a more elegant name."

"it is good."

The emperor ate potato chips and meat slices and drank soup.

"The potatoes are soft and glutinous, the meat is tender and smooth, and the soup is fresh and fragrant. It's very good. I like it."

"Then has the emperor thought of a good name?"

"It's called 'Potato and Pork Soup'. It's simple, straightforward and very good."

"The most vulgar is the most elegant." said Beitang Mo Ran.

"The emperor and the prince both say it's good, so it's good, and we'll call it that. Fang Chongyuan, you can try it too."

"It's very fragrant and delicious. I didn't expect that meat and potatoes could be made this way."

"I think this must be Shaohua's idea again. She is always clever."

"This is what my mother taught me to make. I really like it."

"Your mother can make such delicious food. I think she is a virtuous person."

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty. In addition, these two dishes are the work of Master Chang and are also very popular. Your Majesty and Chongyuan should also try them."

"It is indeed much more relaxed and comfortable outside the palace than inside. When I eat on weekdays, a circle of palace maids and eunuchs stand beside me, watching me eat. I feel irritated and have lost my appetite."

"Your Majesty, don't worry about this. I have all kinds of delicious food in my restaurant. Whenever Your Majesty wants to eat, just send someone to let me know and I'll prepare it for Your Majesty. When Your Majesty comes to eat in the restaurant, I guarantee that Your Majesty will have a good appetite and feel happy."

"Shaohua really understands me."

"Your Majesty, this is Cuiluo Nectar Tea, which is refreshing and mellow. Drinking a cup after a meal can not only relieve greasiness, but is also good for the stomach." Caidie placed the teacup in front of the emperor and Fang Qingyan.

“That’s very thoughtful.”

After the emperor finished his meal and drank tea, he chatted with Prince Chen and Shaohua for a while, then took Fang Qingyan back to the palace.

One day, Wu Youru came to Prince Chen's Mansion.

"Mr. Wu, is there anything going on at the food store?"

"My princess, someone from Duke Shen's Mansion came to our restaurant to tell us that Miss Shen will be dining at our restaurant tomorrow and they want us to prepare in advance. I feel that Miss Shen is of noble status and I am afraid that I may neglect her, so I came to inform you."

“How many customers will be dining in tomorrow?”

"I checked and found that all the seats in the hall are fully booked for those who will dine in at noon tomorrow."

"Send someone to those people's homes and tell them that the store needs to be cleaned and inventoried, and ask them to come back another day, and give them a 10% discount. Remember to be nice and don't get into conflict with the customers."

"Yes, I'll do it right now."

At noon on the second day, Shen Minyu, accompanied by her personal maid and the guards of the Duke's Mansion, quietly came to Yumo Gourmet Restaurant.

"Miss Shen."

"Princess Shaohua, you are here too?" Shen Minyu was a little surprised, but immediately relieved. It was just as she had guessed.

"Ms. Shen, please take a seat. Let's serve the food." The waiter standing by responded and left the elegant room.

"It's rumored that there's a new food store in the capital that's doing really good business. The food they serve is also very unique and has never been seen in the capital. Although I live in seclusion, I've heard about it. I'm very curious about what kind of person opened this food store that attracted almost everyone in the capital to come."

"Miss Shen seems to have guessed that it was me?"

"At first I didn't know, I was just curious, but after some analysis, I was roughly sure that it was the princess's doing. The name of the restaurant implies the princess's and His Royal Highness Prince Chen's names, and the food in the restaurant is innovative and has never been seen in the capital. When I think about the princess's words and deeds, which are always unexpected, these points combined make it 70% certain. Seeing the princess today makes me very sure."

"Ms. Shen is really smart."

"My Lord, you are too kind."

While the two were talking, the dishes were served on the table one after another.

"Ms. Shen is a distinguished guest, so I cooked for you myself and made borscht and potato and meat soup. Please enjoy them, Miss Shen."

"Thank you, my lord. Thank you for your concern."

"Miss Shen, you're welcome."
