Chapter 94: Vegetarian food?! A great deed!
The next morning, Hua Wu was having breakfast when Yu Ping brought two maids to see her.
"Master, this is the person the emperor specially assigned to you."
"This is Lan Tao, the one the Emperor has given you to manage the Hua family farm and shop."
"This is Shi Miaomiao, the head nanny appointed by the emperor to our Yikun Palace."
Yu Ping said excitedly.
The reason why she was so excited was that Lan Tao and Shi Qing were both maids who had taken care of the emperor for many years and were extremely trusted by the emperor, especially Shi Miami. She was not an ordinary person. She was the emperor's wet nurse, someone who even the empress dowager would be wary of when she saw her.
This time with Shi Miami here, the master no longer has to be afraid of the Imperial Concubine.
The Imperial Concubine was released from her house arrest, and the people in the Yikun Palace were almost dying of worry. They couldn't let their mistress hide in the Yikun Palace forever, right? ! Now, they are not afraid anymore.
The emperor really loves their master.
Shi Meimei? ! Wet nurse? !
Hua Wu instantly understood the emperor's intention of asking Shi Meimei to come to Yikun Palace. This was to invite a giant Buddha statue for her to guard the palace!
"Shi Meimei, please take a seat."
“Have you eaten?!”
"Would you like to try some? I don't know what this soup is made of, but it's so delicious, it's so tasty that it's eyebrow-dropping..."
Hua Wuji greeted warmly.
This Shi Meimei plays a very important role in the book.
Xiao Lin's feelings for her are much deeper than those for the Queen Mother. If the Queen Mother is his biological mother, then Shi Meimei is his adoptive mother.
When he was a child, Xiao Lin was not liked by his biological mother and was often treated with contempt by servants. It was Shi Miaomiao who carefully protected and raised Xiao Lin. It can be said that Xiao Lin did not grow up into a thousand-year-old ice block thanks to Shi Miaomiao's careful care.
Xiao Lin was poisoned and assassinated many times by others, and it was Shi Meimei who saved him.
Although Xiao Lin and she are not mother and son, they are as close as mother and son.
In the book, after the empress dowager was sent to Qingliang Temple by Xiao Lin to pray for blessings, although Shi Meimei did not have the title of empress dowager, she was the de facto empress dowager.
Originally, Xiao Lin planned to keep Shi Miaomiao in the palace to live out her old age, but Shi Miaomiao declined all the honors Xiao Lin gave her, and only wanted to return to her hometown to be an old noble.
"Master, how can this be done?!"
"I appreciate your kindness, my wise master."
"This hundred-flavor soup is the specialty of Chef Chen Yu. It contains vegetarian chicken, snow vegetables, roasted gluten fungus, mushrooms, bamboo shoots, taro, water chestnuts, and other wild delicacies. It is carefully cooked and fragrant. It is indeed a good soup."
Shi Miami explained to Hua Wu with a smile on her face, her voice as gentle as a warm breeze caressing her face, neither fast nor slow.
Uh……
Shi Miaomiao has a very pleasant voice, and her every move is graceful and full of charm, with a demeanor of a great person.
I wonder what Shi Miaomiao looked like when she was young?
Hua Wu thought to herself, and suddenly, she felt something was wrong...
"Shi Miaomiao, you mean that this hundred-flavor soup is made up of only vegetables and has no meat at all?! How is that possible? I can clearly taste the aroma of chicken soup..." Hua Wu said in disbelief, staring at the hundred-flavor soup in front of her.
Small head, big doubts.
She suddenly seemed to think of something...
"Chen Yuchu was once the head monk of Lingyan Temple. He is very good at cooking vegetarian dishes," Shi Meimei said with a smile.
It was because of his good vegetarian cooking that he was specially recruited into the palace after he returned to secular life.
Vegetarian?!
Hua Wu looked at the dishes on the table again and again in disbelief, "These...are all vegetarian?!"
Shi Meimei nodded, still smiling.
Crane Cloud Deep!
Hua Wu began to grind her teeth.
No wonder, she felt something was wrong when she ate pork with preserved vegetables yesterday. The pork seemed to be chewier... Now that she thought about it, it wasn't just the pork with preserved vegetables that was wrong... The shrimp balls with bamboo shoots were also wrong, the shrimp balls were not springy enough... And the sweet and sour cherry meat, now that she thought about it, the fragrance didn't last long enough...
So, she is still with the green vegetables and dried tofu? !
"Then...what about this one?!"
“Is this also a vegetarian dish?!”
Hua Wu pointed at a medicinal pork tripe and quail soup and asked in confusion.
She absolutely did not believe that this medicinal meal was vegetarian, because she could not taste anything wrong with it.
The tender and smooth feeling, and the unique fragrance, couldn't possibly be meat.
Shi Meimei took a look and said with a smile: "This medicinal food is fine. The pig's stomach and quail are real."
"Whoo~"
Hua Wuchang exhaled a breath of air.
Fortunately, He Yunshen still had some conscience and left some meat dish for her.
never mind!
These vegetarian dishes are quite delicious and she isn’t tired of them, so let’s leave it like this for now.
But medicinal food is absolutely indispensable!
If there is no meat in the medicinal food, don't blame her for wanting to run away again.
Shi Miami was adamant about not sitting down to eat with them, so Hua Wu didn't force her. As she had almost finished her meal, she asked someone to leave and asked the palace maid to bring some new tea.
"Mother Lan, you're here just in time."
"I just have some ideas about the Hua family's fields, farms, and shops... Shi Meimei, please help me listen and see if there are any omissions..."
Hua Wu held the new tea and asked the two maids to sit down.
After the two maids sat down, Hua Wu thought for a moment and said, "I heard that there are often abandoned babies near the outskirts of Beijing, especially baby girls. There are even baby towers in some places, and the babies thrown into these baby towers are most likely girls."
Nanny Lan and Nanny Shi looked at each other, wondering why Concubine Xian mentioned the baby tower.
"This situation does exist near the outskirts of Beijing, and the poorer the village, the more serious it is," replied Nanny Lan, nodding her head.
Every man in this world wants a son.
So they try their best to force their wives to give birth, but if they give birth to too many children, they cannot afford to raise them, so the girls are often sacrificed.
It’s better to be sent to the baby tower. If they are picked up by someone, at least they still have a life.
Countless baby girls were thrown into urine buckets and drowned or fell to death right after they were born.
"When I was at the farm outside Beijing, I often heard about this kind of thing. I always felt heartbroken for those little lives. I always wanted to help them, but I didn't have the ability at that time."
"Now, I want to use a farm to open a charity to take in those abandoned babies."
"I only accept baby girls!"
"The charity will teach them a skill based on their characteristics, such as medical skills, dancing, or numerology..."
"When they turn 18, they can choose whether to stay and teach, or leave."
……
Hua Wu was destined to leave. Before she left, she wanted to take out the Hua family's property that she had no use for, and use it to help those poor baby girls and give them a way to survive.
Women of this era are so pitiful.
She had this idea when the emperor handed over the Hua family's property to her.
However, she had no experience and was afraid that her good intentions might lead to bad results.
Now, with two maids around, she felt much more at ease.
Her plan was to open one store first to see how it went, and then slowly open a few more. In short, she would open as many stores as the Hua family's wealth could support.
"Good Lord, be kind!"
"No wonder people call you a living Bodhisattva..."
Nanny Lan clapped her hands and praised.
She originally thought that Hua Wu kept her in order to solve the Hua family's current property and money in the account, but she didn't expect that Concubine Xian wanted to discuss such a great merit with her.
Shi Miaomiao didn't say anything, but the smile in her eyes became more gentle.
