"Sister, are you hungry? Lunch is ready. Let's treat the princess to a meal."

Xie Chuntao personally came to the room to invite Princess Yun'an to lunch.

When Princess Yun'an attends a banquet in the capital, the process is nothing more than admiring flowers, listening to music, and drinking. The whole process is cumbersome and boring.

It is impossible to eat with the open air. Most of the dishes on the table are exquisite, but they are only for looking at. Who would actually eat at a banquet?

If someone really eats without caring about their image at the banquet, they will become the laughing stock among the big families in the capital the next day.

Especially for Princess Yun'an, attending the banquet represents the dignity of the royal family, and she must pay attention to etiquette at the banquet, so that she will not eat and drink at will at the banquet.

When you encounter your favorite dish, if you hold out your chopsticks three times, you will be reminded by the accompanying nun coughing.

So when she was invited to the Bai family banquet and saw the large bowls of food stacked in front of her, she was still a little uncomfortable.

"Princess, please." Zhen said politely, "These are our home-cooked dishes. I don't know if the princess likes them."

"Auntie, it's already very rich." Princess Yun'an told the truth.

The Bai family sat together in front of the table, waiting for Princess Yun'an to use her chopsticks.

"Sister Yaoyao, these dishes are the specialties of grandma, my mother and my sisters-in-law. Please try them."

Xiao Fuyuan pointed to the dishes on the table and began to name the dishes to Princess Yun'an.

"This is braised pork, that bowl is braised lion's head, and this is my grandma's steamed buns; this one is my sister-in-law's steamed meat buns, and this braised pork elbow is my third sister-in-law's craftsmanship."

All the meals are served plainly in large bowls without any fancy tricks, exuding an alluring aroma.

"This is the chicken cooked by my father, this fish was stewed by my eldest brother, and this soup must have been cooked by my third brother. These exquisite snacks were made by my third nephew, who has always wanted to be a cook."

What shocked Princess Yun'an was that the men in the Bai family also cooked, and the meals they cooked were quite decent, and they often cooked them regularly.

"My fourth brother and fifth brother can also cook. In my family, everyone except me can cook." Xiao Fuyuan said with a smile, "Especially my brothers, they used to be the ones who lit the fire at home."

Princess Yun'an couldn't help but look at the Bai family with admiration.

If a man is willing to let a man into the kitchen, he must have nothing to say to his daughter-in-law.

This is not a matter of whether the family is rich or poor. She only heard that in poor farm families, daughters-in-law need to work in the fields, wash and cook. Even after giving birth, they have to go into the kitchen to cook. Men regard going into the kitchen as a shame.

"Sister Yaoyao, what do you want to eat?" Xiao Fuyuan asked.

"Sister Yaoyao, please use your chopsticks quickly. I'm starving to death. Don't look at this dish as exquisite as Princess Mansion's, but it tastes really good." Feng Zhiheng had already raised his chopsticks and aimed at Xie Chuntao's big meat buns, and was waiting. Princess Yun'an started, and she immediately took off her chopsticks.

Princess Yun'an was dazzled by the food in front of her. With the expectant eyes of the Bai family, she didn't know which dish to eat.

"Come, Yaoyao, you try my stewed braised pork first." Old Mrs. Bai put a piece of fat and thin braised pork on the plate in front of Princess Yun'an, and also took a steamed bun and handed it to the princess.

The princess took the wowotou.

"Yao Yao, eat, there are no rules in our family. Eating big is our family's table manners." Mrs. Bai looked at Princess Yun'an lovingly.

At the same time, I sighed in my heart, everything was fine, but I was too thin.

It's pitiful that they are all trapped by the rules and can't even eat well.

Princess Yun'an ate a large piece of braised pork under everyone's expectant eyes.

"Grandma, the braised pork you made is delicious." Princess Yun'an said to the old lady Bai with shining eyes.

It's fragrant but not greasy, moist but not greasy, with a simple meaty aroma. Princess Yun'an is used to eating exquisite dishes, but she feels that Mrs. Bai's craftsmanship is to her liking.

Mrs. Bai smiled broadly.

For those who cook, being able to make the eyes of diners shine is the greatest comfort to them.

Mrs. Bai is no exception.

"Princess, try this." Zhen didn't know how to cook, so she tore off the chicken legs from the chicken stewed on a white board and handed it to Princess Yun'an.This is the first time for Princess Yun'an to eat chicken legs like this.

Fragrant!
Really fragrant!

Normally, the chicken drumsticks at home are given to Xiao Fuyuan, but today is special. Xiao Fuyuan took the initiative to give up the other drumstick to Feng Zhiheng.

Feng Zhiheng and Princess Yun'an were both eating with their eyes shining.

"Princess, try this meat bun." Xie Chuntao sandwiched the meat buns he made and handed them to Princess Yun'an.

"Princess, these are my scrambled eggs, you can try them." Second sister-in-law Eugene Gui is not good at cooking, but scrambled eggs are not a problem.

"Yao Yao, try my stewed elbow. I used to be a butcher and I am good at stewing elbows." Tian Maimiao put a large piece of elbow meat in front of Princess Yun'an.

Aunt Wei and Caixia looked at the mountains of meat and vegetables piled in front of the princess. They tried to stop them several times, but they were afraid that the princess would accumulate food.

But looking at the princess holding a steamed bun in one hand and a chicken drumstick in the other, she put aside all table manners and was eating deliciously.

On the contrary, I couldn’t bear to remind you.

After all, in the entire princess mansion, the princess usually eats at the big table alone, and she always loses her appetite after just two bites.

This was the first time they saw the princess eating so deliciously.

"Sister Yaoyao, try this, shredded sweet potato."

This shredded sweet potato dish is Saburo’s specialty.

When the Bai family came to Beijing, they brought the last basket of sweet potatoes and took them out specially to entertain the princess.

Naturally, this was Princess Yun'an's first time hearing about sweet potatoes, and she took a bite out of curiosity.

"It's delicious." Princess Yun'an said to Xiao Fuyuan, "Is this a specialty of Huaicheng? I have never eaten anything like this in the capital."

So Xiao Fuyuan told the princess the origin of sweet potatoes in a concise and concise manner.

"Next year, we will be able to realize the freedom of sweet potatoes." Xiao Fuyuan said happily.

"Don't just watch me eat, please sit down and eat together." Princess Yun'an was just focusing on eating, and while she was talking to Xiao Fuyuan, she realized that the Bai family were still standing.

Mrs. Bai and others took their seats one after another.

Soon the dinner table became lively.

Old Mrs. Bai and others were not used to being served, so they kicked out all the serving maids. Only her family was eating lively together at the entire dinner table.

The Bai family doesn't have so many rules at the dinner table, and they don't know much about food language.

So Princess Yun'an felt the excitement of having so many people eating together for the first time.

Quite heartwarming.

"Princess, try this."

"Princess, try this."

"Sister Yaoyao, let me serve you a bowl of porridge."

Soon, everyone eliminated their curiosity about the princess's meal, and regarded the princess as a member of the Bai family. They warmly greeted her to eat this dish and try that dish.

Princess Yun'an unknowingly ate a lot until she was full. It wasn't that she didn't want to leave the table, but that the food on the table was too much to her liking.

More importantly, she is very greedy for the lively and warm atmosphere at the dinner table.

The atmosphere of home, the warmth she had not experienced for a long time.
