Getting Rich from Legend of Zhen Huan
Chapter 309 On Dishes and Changes
Cao Qinmo is now of low status and out of favor, with only a silver hairpin and velvet flowers decorating her hair. Yixiu gently touched Cao Qinmo's hair and said lovingly, "We are all sisters, why does the younger sister need to be like this? But the elder sister can really give you some advice."
Cao Qinmo obediently put her head on Yixiu's knees and listened to Yixiu's words.
Yixiu said intriguingly, "Sister, you know that no matter how much a person likes a dish, if he eats it every day, he will get tired of it. Ordinary people will endure their emotions and continue to eat it even if they don't like the food in order to survive." But the Fourth Prince, as a descendant of a royal family, would not compromise his appetite like this.
Cao Qinmo knew that Yixiu was using the dishes to illustrate the current situation in the backyard, so she smiled and agreed, "Not to mention others, I feel that my taste buds have been spoiled since I came into the mansion. If the same few snacks are always served for breakfast every day, within three days, I will be causing trouble for the kitchen." Even Cao Qinmo couldn't stand it, let alone the Fourth Prince.
Yixiu sighed, "Sister, don't blame the kitchen for not being attentive. Maybe there's something wrong with the purchase. There are only a few ingredients delivered to the kitchen every day. No wonder the kitchen can't come up with anything new."
Cao Qinmo smiled and said, "This is a bit like celebrating Chinese New Year at home in the past. We had fish and meat all day long. If there was a plate of fresh seasonal vegetables on the table, it would be eaten up in just a few chopsticks."
Yixiu nodded, "That's exactly the reason. Sometimes when I don't have a good appetite, I want to have a bowl of porridge with some appetizers. It can be seen that fatty meat and rich wine have their own advantages, but simple tea and rice are not bad either. The balance is to be appropriate at the right time. If you force yourself to stuff greasy meat into your mouth when your stomach is full of oil, it will definitely be unpopular!"
Cao Qinmo put forward her own idea, "Now that the New Year is approaching, isn't it time for simple food to come out?"
Yixiu nodded and shook her head, "Speaking of simple meals reminds me of Honghui's childhood. I like to eat seasonal wild vegetables according to the season, and Honghui also likes to eat them with me.
But my sister also knows that the wild vegetables that can be served on our table must be the best of the best. This gave Honghui an illusion that all wild vegetables tasted like this, so when he went to inspect the farm, he insisted on trying the wild vegetables that the farmers would eat at home. As a result, he almost vomited as soon as he put it in his mouth. "
Cao Qinmo laughed in silence. Although she had never come into contact with wild vegetables in the fields, she knew that there was a huge difference between the wild vegetables eaten by ordinary people and those eaten by nobles.
"The kitchen must have used the most tender sprouts of wild vegetables to cook. How could farmers have such conditions? I'm sure that what Brother Honghui put in his mouth must have tasted bitter and astringent, and even difficult to swallow."
Yixiu also laughed, "That's right, Honghui swallowed it with difficulty, and came back and threw himself into my arms and cried. I really had to use all my words to make him understand how difficult people's livelihood is." After finishing speaking, Yixiu said embarrassedly, "When I talked about Honghui, I couldn't help but say more, which deviated from the topic."
Cao Qinmo said enviously, "Prince Honghui is intelligent, and his wife is kind. I have long admired them."
Yixiu smiled indifferently and returned to the topic, "So, the simple meals in the palace are also carefully cooked before they can be presented to the master." The Fourth Prince is very picky about food. If you really serve him boiled wild vegetables, he will not find them fresh and want to taste them.
Cao Qinmo understood that she still had to carefully plan her encounter with the Fourth Prince, and continued to ask, "It's just that I am a humble woman, and I don't know how to win the favor of the prince."
Yixiu advised, "The prince and I are most worried about our offspring. Sister Cao should spend more time with Sister Lu and learn to be a good mother."
Cao Qinmo's eyes lit up. Yes, what could be more suitable for her than kindness? After clarifying her future personality, Cao Qinmo was overjoyed. But what price would she have to pay for accepting such a big favor from Fu Jin?
"Madam treats me so well, I really don't know how to repay you." Cao Qinmo said nervously.
Yixiu simply helped Cao Qinmo up, patted her wrinkled collar, and said with a smile, "All I want is a cluster of flowers. As long as all the colorful flowers are in full bloom, I will be satisfied."
Cao Qinmo held Yixiu's hand and said, "I will follow the instructions of the Lady." If Yixiu wanted all flowers to bloom, then Cao Qinmo would break Nian Shilan's single flower.
In Fuyao Pavilion, after seeing Cao Qinmo off, Mian'er put away the teacup and said with a pout, "Why did this Cao Gege come to visit for no apparent reason? It really doesn't make sense."
Lu Yingfeng had received Yixiu's message a long time ago, and was not surprised at all that Cao Qinmo came to visit. "Girl Cao has been in the mansion for almost a year, and she has no whereabouts. Her coming here is just another person to talk to me. It's not as serious as you say."
Mian'er said aggrievedly, "Didn't Lady Cao come here just to meet the prince? Concubine Nian was so arrogant that she occupied the prince's time for so many days. Now Lady Cao wants to have a piece of the pie. I feel wronged for my master."
When Lu Yingfeng thought of the Fourth Prince's behavior, she felt sick, but the wife no longer often slept with him. For the sake of the wife, Lu Yingfeng could not push the Fourth Prince to Nian Shilan, so she could only endure the Fourth Prince's greasy behavior. Now that Cao Qinmo, who urgently needed the Fourth Prince's favor, was there, Lu Yingfeng would be much more relaxed in the future.
"You are not me, how do you know that I am wronged? It is better for Cao Gege to be close to us than to rely on Concubine Nian!" Lu Yingfeng said easily.
Seeing that Lu Yingfeng insisted on doing so, Mian'er didn't say much.
Yixiu and Lu Yingfeng were both generous in their training of Cao Qinmo. With this silent help, Cao Qinmo was able to increasingly reveal her beauty and gentle temperament.
When the Fourth Prince brought Yixiu back from the palace and gathered with the people in the palace, he saw Cao Qinmo playing with Miaohan. Miaohan was particularly interested in the beads woven by Cao Qinmo and was listening carefully to Cao Qinmo's explanation of the details that needed to be paid attention to.
"Su Peisheng, why have I never seen the people around Miaohan before?" the Fourth Prince asked in a low voice.
Su Peisheng took a look and couldn't help but sigh at the way the lady trained people. In just a few days, the inconspicuous Cao Gege was transformed into a beautiful girl.
"Your Majesty, that's Princess Cao."
After being reminded by Su Peisheng, the Fourth Prince remembered Cao Qinmo. He had thought that Cao Qinmo was a woman with a plain face, but today, she was not so ugly. The Fourth Prince could not help but ask with interest, "Has she been close to Shilan recently?"
"Gege Cao hasn't been to Lanyun Villa for a long time, but she often goes to Concubine Lu for advice." Su Peisheng's words hit upon the issue that the Fourth Prince was most concerned about.
The Fourth Prince commented, "She is quite obedient. After the first month of the lunar year, let her sleep with you!"
