The Legitimate Daughter Returns: The Real Daughter is Reborn

Chapter 126 Tastes great

Mammy Zhang came in after smelling the fragrance, and caught a glimpse of the green willow and lotus heart standing by the side.

　One person stepped forward and pushed with his finger.

“Don’t you two see that the lady is busy? Don’t you know how to go up and help me?”

Seeing that Su Leyun was about to get something, Granny Zhang said with quick eyesight and quick hands, "Miss, I can help you."

"Mommy, don't blame them. I asked them not to help, and grandma is resting." Su Leyun added the seasoning and put the lid on the pot.

 She placed the prepared side dishes into the bowl one by one, and then poured the vegetables that had been simmered for a while into the bowl.

Looking at Su Leyun's smooth arrangement of the dishes, Grandma Zhang felt a little confused. If it comes to cooking, she may have learned it when she was in Jingzhou, but how did she learn such exquisite arrangement?

“Mommy, lotus heart, green willow, give me a taste.”

Su Leyun took out a small bowl and each took some out.

Cuiliu had already smelled the aroma and couldn't help it. She stepped forward and took a bite with her chopsticks. Her eyes suddenly lit up and she mumbled: "Miss, it's delicious!"

 Lian Xin ate gracefully, but chewed a little faster.

When the food was finished, he said, "Miss, this fish meat doesn't have any fishy smell and melts in your mouth. How did you do it?"

“There are different ways to remove the fishy smell from different ingredients. For seafood such as fish, whether it is cleaning or removing the internal organs, use warm water several times to remove the fishy smell to a great extent.”

Su Leyun took a bite to make sure it was cooked properly, and then answered Lian Xin's question.

 “So that’s how it is.”

"Okay, hurry up and take the dishes to the house. Cuiliu, walk quickly and ask your mother and brother to come over."

 “Yes, Miss.”

 When Lian Xin and Cui Liu left the kitchen, Su Leyun looked at Nanny Zhang who was standing thoughtfully on one side, "Nanny, what's wrong?"

“Miss, you are the legitimate daughter of the Marquis, so it’s better to stay away from places like the kitchen.”

 Mother Zhang’s worries are not unreasonable.

Although ladies from aristocratic families in the capital will also go into the kitchen to make some snacks, most of them are done by maids and the ladies only direct them.

Su Leyun has been criticized since his return from Jingzhou. If more rumors spread, his reputation will be even worse.

“Mommy, I know your worries, I will pay attention to it in the future.”

Su Leyun smiled and walked out of the kitchen with Aunt Zhang.

Sun Jiarou and Su Ye arrived together.

Before entering the room, Su Ye seemed to smell something and couldn't wait to ask: "What delicious food did Grandma Zhang cook?"

 Mother Zhang glanced at Su Leyun, covered her mouth and smiled, "Master, I didn't do anything today."

 “Then who made it? It’s so fragrant, you can smell it from so far away.”

Su Ye looked around in confusion. In Chaohua Xiaozhu, there could be someone who was better at cooking than Aunt Zhang.

It’s not that Grandma Zhang’s cooking skills are great, but other little girls are probably not that good.

“Let the lady answer this question for you.”

Mama Zhang's mysterious appearance made Su Ye more and more curious.

 Sun Jiarou looked at Aunt Zhang on the left and Su Leyun on the right, hiding the smile in her eyes.

Several people entered the room, and the aroma became stronger and stronger.

 The table is already filled with dishes, all of which are piping hot.

 “Mom, brother, sit down and eat.”

Su Leyun brought Sun Jiarou to his seat, and Su Ye sat down next to Sun Jiarou.

“Yun’er, is there a cooking **** hiding in your courtyard?”

Su Ye glanced at the dishes on the table and was even more certain that they could not be made by the chefs of the Su family. Not to mention the presentation, the smell alone could not be made by the cooks of the Su family.

“Yun’er, did you do all this?”

Even though Sun Jiarou was prepared, she didn't expect Su Leyun's cooking skills to be so good.

Of course, if compared with a real chef or an imperial chef, it is still far behind, but this level is already very good.

 “Did Yun’er do it?”

Su Ye was stunned for a moment, looked at Su Leyun, saw the smile in his sister's eyes, and reacted.

 It was really Su Leyun who did it.

“Mom, do you want to try it?”

Su Leyun smiled and served Sun Jiarou some food.

In terms of appearance alone, it certainly wouldn’t taste bad, not to mention that it was made by her daughter herself. Even if it didn’t taste good, Sun Jiarou would say it was delicious, but she gave up the idea after she took the bite.

 “It tastes great.”

 “As long as Mom likes it.”

The mother and daughter smiled at each other, then went to see Su Ye. They were already engrossed in eating and didn't even bother to talk.

Su Leyun said helplessly: "Brother, you eat slowly, no one will compete with you."

"Uh-huh."

Su Ye nodded repeatedly but didn't stop talking.

　　Until I am full.

The cooked black-bone chicken soup was also brought up. Su Leyun poured a bowl of soup for Sun Jiarou and Su Ye, "Drink some chicken soup to eliminate food and warm the stomach."

After dinner, the mother and son chatted for a while, and then they dispersed.

As soon as Sun Jiarou and Nanny Li arrived at Huairou Pavilion, they saw a little maid coming to greet them and saying in a low voice: "Madam, the Marquis is here."

"…knew."

Sun Jiarou’s mouth corners dropped slightly, she looked at Granny Li and entered the room.

Su Changqing sat in his seat with an impatient look on his face.

 But when he saw Sun Jiarou, his expression quickly changed.

“Isn’t the Marquis busy with the Yamen affairs? Why are you here?”

Sun Jiarou sat down beside her and ignored Su Changqing's extended hand.

　　The latter twitched his eyes in embarrassment and retracted his hand.

"Madam, we are almost done with the yamen affairs," Su Changqing put her fist to her mouth and coughed lightly, "I also know that I have neglected Madam for many days, so I am here to apologize."

"The Marquis has killed me. You are busy with the Yamen affairs for the sake of the prosperous dynasty. How can I blame the Marquis?"

Having been together for twenty years, Sun Jiarou could not tell what Su Changqing meant. She lowered her eyes to cover up the coldness in her eyes and said, "Master Hou, what do you want to tell me?"

“Yes, look at my memory.”

Su Changqing moved as he spoke, feeling a little unsteady in his seat.

 It seems that what she wants to say is difficult to say.

The coldness in Sun Jiarou's eyes became more and more intense, "If you have anything to do with me, Lord Marquis, just tell me."

"That's right..." Su Changqing frowned, "You also know that Lu Hong's cousin is pregnant. There is no ground dragon in the yard where she lives now. It would be bad if the child gets cold."

 “What does Mr. Hou mean?”

Sun Jiarou received it.

 “Look at whether we’re going to find someone to install the earth dragon in the next few days.”

"That's what the Marquis said. In fact, I also told my mother-in-law about this matter, but my mother-in-law said that she would be able to pick her up after my brother-in-law's yard was tidied up, so she told me not to worry about it. "

Su Changqing frowned, "Did mother really say that?"

 “How dare I say nonsense about my mother-in-law.”

Sun Jiarou’s tone was calm, without any ups and downs.

 “In that case, forget it.”

Su Changqing twitched the corners of his lips and stood up, "Madam, please rest early, I still have some things to be busy with."

"Um."

Sun Jiarou only nodded and did not get up to see her off as usual.

But now Su Changqing, who only cares about Wen Yiyue and the child in her belly, didn't notice at all and left Huairou Pavilion on her own.
