Chapter 408: The Princess is Really Good at Both Being a Lady and a Cook
Li Mulan was speechless. "How stingy am I to you that I don't even have a decent piece of clothing?"
The little grasshopper puffed up his chest and said, "Are my clothes bad? They are not torn and are new and very clean. If it weren't for those snobs, the teacher would look down on me. Humph, I won't even buy this dress."
"Who? A competitor?"
The little grasshopper curled his lips and said, "Oh, it's just that the businesses I did before were too successful, and Kyoto is full of people... I have affected their interests, so it's okay for them to say a few sour words."
Li Mulan frowned, "They are bullying others by taking advantage of their power?"
"Hehehe," the little grasshopper waved his hands, "Not really. After all, if you really want to bully others, I'll have to do it. They don't know that I'm working for you, my master, but I always come to the palace openly. They can find out with just a little investigation. It's just a little advantage, but I can't get any benefit."
"Can you still let others take advantage of you with words?" Li Mulan expressed her doubt.
"How can that be possible?" But he did become more restrained.
The little grasshopper is a natural businessman. He knows how to read people's expressions and is very good at dealing with human relationships.
In the business world, it is good to lean on a big tree for shade. In the past, he had a little face, and he could speak for five points. But now, he really has a strong backer, but he is low-key, because he doesn't want to cause trouble for his master.
Li Mulan also understood his personality and said in a serious tone, "If my people were bullied outside, I would feel very embarrassed."
The little grasshopper smiled innocently, "I know, what smells so good? I haven't even had my meal yet."
Li Mulan raised her lips and said, "You are in luck. I will cook for you myself and make you something delicious."
After these words were spoken, Little Grasshopper smiled and said nothing more. Even Huo Yuanruo and the others wanted to leave.
"Hey, you guys, what's with that expression?"
Li Mulan put her hands on her hips, looking angry. She couldn't cook, but making a bowl of instant noodles, huh, huh, was too easy.
Then she stopped everyone from leaving and insisted that everyone taste her cooking.
Huo Yuanruo wished he could faint right now. He had eaten the most of Junior Master's dark dishes since he was a child. Really... Really... Really deadly...
There was ready-made soup in the kitchen, so Li Mulan used it as the soup base and made a bowl of homemade instant noodles. She was also thoughtful enough to blanch some green leafy vegetables in it, which made people's appetites grow at the first sight.
Xing Si and the old butler didn't know about Li Mulan's cooking ability, but just seeing that she could make so many flavors of dried meat that were easy to preserve, they thought that their princess must be a great cook.
The old butler held a bowl of hot instant noodles. According to the hierarchy, how could he have the right to eat something cooked by the princess? However, the aroma of the noodles tempted him little by little, making him drool. But seeing that no one else had picked up their chopsticks, he did not dare to move either.
Li Xiaoqi sniffed it carefully, and it didn't smell strange, but rather quite fragrant. "Master sister, did you really make this?"
Li Mulan rolled her eyes and said, "Did you guys see me doing this just now?"
Huo Yuanruo couldn't believe it either. "It looks good, but..."
He stirred the noodles and found nothing strange. In addition, the noodles were so tempting that he couldn't help but eat a chopstick. His eyes lit up instantly and he quickly picked up the noodles with his chopsticks.
Seeing him eating so deliciously, Li Xiaoqi began to wonder if this guy did it on purpose. In fact, the food was very unpalatable, but he pretended to be delicious to trick them into eating it together.
"You won't lie to us, will you?"
"Hmm~good, good." Huo Yuanruo said incoherently, and the bowl of noodles was almost empty.
Seeing him like this, Li Xiaoqi couldn't help swallowing his saliva and started eating too.
The rest of the people started to eat, and then they all ate without saying a word. Of course, except for Ye Tianyu, he was really in no shape...
Huo Yuanruo finished the bowl with one bowl, and seeing that the one in front of Ye Tianyu was still untouched, he took it directly, "Brother Tianyu, you don't want to eat it, right? Then I'll help you finish it, don't waste it."
Although Ye Tianyu also smelled the fragrance of the noodles, his stomach couldn't take it. He could only swallow his saliva and watch everyone eat.
The old housekeeper was so excited while eating, and his heart was filled with excitement. Their princess was indeed a master of both housework and cooking. The prince would be blessed in the future. No, when Xing Si sent a message to the prince, he must tell him about this matter. The prince would definitely cherish the princess even more.
Xing Si had a lot of things on his mind at the moment. The princess had been busy for so long, and all the things in front could be sent to the army. This... could definitely be sent as well. The taste was really good, and it was not a bad idea to improve the meals for the brothers occasionally.
Huo Yuanruo finished two bowls of noodles and rubbed his stomach in satisfaction. "Little Master, you are too much. Did you cook for me on purpose? How did you make this so delicious?"
Li Mulan looked proud and asked, "Is it delicious? Is it tasty?"
Huo Yuan nodded like a chick pecking at rice, "Can I have another bowl?"
"You've eaten too much. Digest it. There's too much of this. I'll make more for you tomorrow if you want to eat it."
Huo Yuanruo licked his lips, feeling somewhat unsatisfied, "Okay."
Seeing that everyone had finished eating, Li Mulan looked at Xing Si and said, "Xing Si, what do you think of this?"
Xing Si quickly put down his chopsticks, "Delicious, the princess is amazing, she can actually make such amazing food."
Li Mulan smiled and put a basket of bread on the table, and then put a jar of seasoning powder next to it.
"This noodle can be stored for about three to six months. In today's weather, it can be stored for half a year. You can cook it the same way I just did, and then add some seasoning. You can also soak it directly in hot water and wait for half a cup of tea until it softens."
As Li Mulan spoke, she brought a bowl and hot water, made another bowl on the spot and handed it to Xing Si.
"Moreover, this thing can not only be eaten boiled or soaked, but it is also delicious when eaten dry."
Li Mulan broke open a pancake and asked, "Try it?"
This time, not only Xing Si, but everyone else stood up to take it, even Ye Tianyu took a small piece to taste.
The old butler was the most considerate. He started praising it as soon as he took a bite, "Mm, it's really delicious. I didn't expect that chewing it would have a different taste."
Xing Si no longer cared about his image at this moment. He ate two bites of dry noodles and then started staring at the bowl of instant noodles. Looking at his expression, if you didn't know him, you would really think he had been hungry for several days.
"Princess, can I eat this?"
Li Mulan took off the covering and stirred it with chopsticks. It looked almost done. "It's done."
Xing Si started eating almost as soon as Li Mulan finished speaking, with his chopsticks already ready.
