Chapter 46: Keeping the Maid (Please read and recommend)

Sheng Changbai followed Xu Wenhui and Minglan with a confused look on his face to the yard rented by Xu Wenhui in Yangzhou.

Just now,

Looking at the table full of dishes I have never seen before,
  Sheng Changbai still felt a little ridiculous.
  Just because of Minglan’s joke,

Xu Wenhui, the young prince, dragged him from the study room to eat...

Yeah, but this dish is really good. The Sheng family can be considered a family of officials and gentry. This is the first time for Sheng Changbai to have such novel and delicious dishes.

Glancing at his sixth sister Minglan, he saw that this little girl had her mouth full and couldn't stop picking up food. Sheng Changbai shook his head with a look of helplessness on his face. How could she still have the ladylike temperament here?

However, Sheng Changbai also knew that Minglan's life with Wei Xiaoniang was not satisfactory, and it was a rare trip, so he didn't say much, turned to look at Xu Wenhui and asked curiously:

"Bosheng, these are the latest dishes in Bianjing. They taste really good. This is the first time I have seen them!"

"It's not an outside dish. This is a homemade dish created by one of my cooks, and it has never been revealed outside!"

It is actually not an exaggeration to say that Dongxiang created it himself. Xu Wenhui is not a chef and cannot cook.

He just provided ideas, and the girl Dongxiang came up with new dishes and made many new dishes.

Sheng Changbai was surprised when he heard this.

"Oh? There is such a talent? Which master in your family is he? Can you recommend him?"

"Hahaha, it's not a master! No, it's that girl Dongxiang! He is the maid next to my little brother, and he is the best at cooking!"

Sheng Changbai looked behind Xu Wenhui and saw that it was a little girl. He was stunned at first, and then nodded appreciatively.
  "The maids in your mansion are really ingenious!"

Since she is Xu Wenhui's maid, Sheng Changbai can't say much. Who knows if there are any taboos about whether she is Xu Wenhui's roommate?

So he looked back and picked up a piece of his most popular piece of plain-cut chicken, dipped it in the seasoning water, held it in front of his eyes and looked at it again and again.
  "I have never thought that a small boiled chicken can be so delicious. It can be said to be the most simple thing. The ancients did not deceive me!"

After saying that, he put it in his mouth, chewed it gently, and looked intoxicated!

"Haha, since brother Chengcheng likes it, then eat more. If you are satisfied with the meal, I will also be happy on this day of entertaining guests!" Sheng Changbai liked it, and Xu Wenhui naturally said polite words!
  Minglan didn't have the same scruples as Sheng Changbai. When she heard that the dishes on the table were made by Dongxiang, she

She immediately looked at Dongxiang with surprise and admiration. In her opinion, Dongxiang is not very young yet, but she can cook so many delicious dishes. It is really amazing!

It's just that her mouth is full and her little face is bulging like two buns hanging on it. It's really funny.
  Xu Wenhui really didn't expect that when she was a child, she saw the food look like this, and couldn't help but laugh:
  "Eat slowly, and no one will compete with you. If you eat so fast, you won't eat much!"

Her mouth was full, and Minglan couldn't speak clearly.

"I can do seven. I can do more than my little girl does!"

Xu Wenhui and Sheng Changbai looked at each other, laughed, and ignored her.

Thinking of one of the reasons for finding Sheng Changbai, Xu Wenhui picked up a bowl of water and wine.
  "Come, Brother Zecheng, I will leave for Beijing someday. I would like to toast you with this bowl of wine and thank you for your hospitality during these days! When you arrive in Bianjing the next day, I will thank you properly!"

"So fast?"

When Sheng Changbai heard this, he was a little reluctant to give up.
  However, in the past two days, relatives and friends have been saying goodbye one after another. Xu Wenhui's farewell was actually something he expected, "Yes, things in the house are quite busy, so it's hard to leave for too long!"

"Then I wish Brother Boxheng a safe journey, and we'll meet you in Bianjing if you come! Please!" Sheng Changbai also raised his drink and saluted Xu Wenhui.
  "Please!" Xu Wenhui said, then drank.

When Minglan next to her heard the news that Xu Wenhui was leaving, she quickly chewed the food in her mouth twice, swallowed it hard, and interjected:
  "What, cousin, are you leaving? How about you stay some time before leaving?"

As he spoke, he looked at the dishes on the table with a look of reluctance!

Xu Wenhui was happy when he saw Minglan like this.
  "Sixth sister, are you reluctant to part with your cousin, or are you reluctant to part with these dishes?"

Minglan was a little embarrassed by Xu Wenhui's remarks. She pursed her lips and smiled, and then said:

"There are all of them!"

"I take it you are reluctant to part with more of these dishes, right?"

"No way, cousin, don't accuse me wrongly!"

"Oh? Really? I was thinking that since you like Minglan so much, I would keep this girl Dongxiang and do it for you a few more times. It turns out that you are not the one with feelings, so I'd better take her away!"

"Ah? I...I..." Minglan looked confused when she heard this. She still wanted to eat these delicious dishes, but she couldn't regret it on the spot!

Sheng Changbai couldn't help laughing, and looked helplessly at Xu Wenhui:

"Bosheng, you are too, Sixth Sister is still young!"

Upon hearing this, Minglan knew that Xu Wenhui was teasing her, and immediately stared at Xu Wenhui angrily with her mouth shut, as if if you don't apologize, I will ignore you!
  "Haha, Zicheng, you have misunderstood. It's not that you are teasing Sixth Sister at all. I really have this idea!" Xu Wenhui explained:

"My aunt is getting older, and the food she uses in her meals is not very sweet. I thought of keeping the winter fragrance for a while and finding someone to teach me a thing or two, so as to show my filial piety! I can't trust others.
  The sixth sister is very good, she is clever and clever! Plus, it’s not considered an outsider, so I don’t feel bad if you teach it!
  I just don’t know if Sixth Sister is willing? "

"I am willing, I am willing!"

Minglan ignored her anger and nodded in surprise. She was not very young at the time and had no special hobbies. Her only hobby was food. If she learned these dishes, wouldn't she have food to eat every day?
  Not only can you eat it yourself, but you can also give it to your mother-in-law, grandmother, and future younger brothers and sisters...

Minglan almost jumped for joy when she thought of these!

It was related to his grandmother's health, so Sheng Changbai couldn't refuse, but he was a little embarrassed.
  "Is this... going to be a little too troublesome for Bo Sheng?"

Xu Wenhui couldn't refuse and said:

"What's the trouble? It's just a matter of words. Looking back, I will arrange for people to be in Minglan's courtyard. This will also be convenient for teaching Minglan!

But even Dongxiang is a bit naive and doesn't understand the rules. She may have to arrange for a girl to cooperate with her. Well... let's just Chunxiang. Anyway, she is familiar with Shengfu, so I can rest assured that she is here! "

Sheng Changbai naturally had no objection to this trivial matter. It was not a man's arrangement, just one or two cooks, so he said a few more polite words before saying:

"Thank you very much, Boxheng. I will tell my mother about this later!"
