After being rejected, he emptied the mansion and went into exile

In front of everyone, Shen Jinyao told the people in the kitchen camp how to deal with potatoes.

"This potato needs to be peeled, and these need to be cut into thin strips."

"Wash these and steam them directly."

"Put these directly on the stove and roast them. Watch the time and take them out."

"Cut these into shreds and mix them with the flour. Then just cut them with oil."

Shen Jinyao spoke in an organized manner and arranged all the potatoes in the two sacks she brought.

Shen Jinyao finally took out four potatoes and planned to cook it herself.

Xiang Hongxuan and others watched them busying themselves. When it was almost time for dinner, the soldiers also rushed over to watch the fun.

When they got closer, they saw the general standing at the front of the crowd.

The soldiers who came to watch the fun did not dare to make any loud noise.

Xiang Hongxuan called Li Fei over and said, "Go pick fifty people."

Li Fei: "Do these fifty people have any requests?"

Xiang Hongxuan: "I like to eat, but I'm quite picky about food."

Li Fei understood that he had to count himself as one.

When Li Fei went to pick people, Shen Jinyao's meal was almost ready.

The eldest prince saw the two tables of dishes prepared by Shen Jinyao and asked, "What did you cook?"

Shen Jinyao introduced them to the eldest prince and the others one by one, "This is stir-fried meat with shredded potatoes."

"This is steamed potato. The three plates next to it are for dipping sauces. There are sweet, salty, and spicy ones. You can dip them in whatever you want."

"This is a baked potato with the skin peeled off. The flavor is different from the steamed potato."

"This is potato pancake, made with shredded potatoes and flour."

These are all what Shen Jinyao told the master how to do and let the master do it.

Then she took out the two dishes she had just prepared.

One is the French fries she made, and the other is the dessert she made, which is mashed potatoes with some jam.

In fact, Shen Jinyao wanted the eldest prince and others to try two new dishes.

After all, the eldest prince and Xiang Hongxuan had eaten good food before, so she was very confident that the dishes just now would satisfy the soldiers.

However, if you want to amaze the eldest prince and others, you still have to be more refined and attentive.

After everything was ready, Li Fei came with the selected people.

Shen Jinyao looked at them and saw that they loved to eat and none of them were thin.

Xiang Hongxuan walked up to them and said, "Today I'll let you try something new, called potatoes."

"These are all foods made from potatoes. After you eat them, please comment on whether they are delicious or not."

“If it tastes good, say it tastes good. If it tastes bad, say it tastes bad.”

"Yes, General."

These fifty people had not expected that such a good thing would happen.

Shen Jinyao, standing next to Xiang Hongxuan, lowered her head and whispered, "Let them vote too. Which recipe tastes better?"

After Shen Jinyao finished speaking, Xiang Hongxuan did not express anything and did not speak.

Shen Jinyao even thought that Xiang Hongxuan didn't hear it.

"After you finish eating, vote for the most delicious dish."

"Of course, brothers who didn't get to eat it don't worry. If it's really delicious, there will be more in the future."

Just when Shen Jinyao thought Xiang Hongxuan would ignore what she had just said, she didn't expect Xiang Hongxuan to add a few more words.

Li Fei stopped the fifty soldiers from taking their seats, and the eldest prince and others followed suit.

The others gathered around and watched them eat.

"Hey, what do you think this is going to be?"

"what happened?"

"What else? When have you ever seen a general take care of these things?"

It's good enough that the general doesn't train them to death. He has never cared about what they like to eat.

"Didn't you hear the general say this is a dish made of potatoes?"

"Yes, potatoes are a very rare food. I heard from the veterans that they are very effective in helping you stay full."

"We don't have to choose whether to resist hunger or not, right?"

"I think the same as you do. I think the general is a little strange."

"That's right, if you think it's good, why not just buy it?"

"Oh, I know, I know, hey, I know."

This person kept saying that he knew, and the expression on his face looked like he knew something extraordinary.

"What do you know? Tell me quickly."

"Do you remember hearing someone say before that the people in Wuhe Village were growing potatoes?"

After he reminded them, the others seemed to remember the previous rumors.

"So what if Wuhe Village grows potatoes?"

"Haven't you heard?..."

The man lowered his head and spoke in a low voice, as if he was afraid that someone would hear what he said.

"Why don't you tell me quickly, what is the devil's secret?"

"Keep your voices down so the general and the deputy general don't hear you."

"Okay, let's keep our voices down. Please speak quickly."

"I heard that the general's fiancée lives in Wuhe Village."

"Ah? Isn't the general's fiancée in Shangzhou?"

"What you said is all outdated. The guy in Shangzhou broke off the engagement long ago."

"Then the one from Wuhe Village is the general's new fiancée? That's impossible."

Their general was a very cold-blooded person, and he didn't expect his fiancée to do this to him one after another.

"What? The one from Wuhe Village is his previous fiancée, the Shen family from Shangzhou."

"Ah...we are a little confused by what you said."

"Why are you lying? No wonder you fail every test and are always punished."

"There's a new exiled Shen family member in Wuhe Village. I'm guessing it's the Shen family from Shangzhou."

"Ah? No way, wouldn't that just be old lovers meeting again?"

"You better be careful and don't say such things carelessly. The general has already broken off the engagement. It doesn't matter anymore."

"If you say it's okay, then it's okay, right? Otherwise, why would the general think of buying potatoes?"

"That's right, do you think the general really did this for you?"

The soldiers at the back were discussing it heatedly and even wanted to place a bet.

Fortunately, they were quite far away from Xiang Hongxuan, and the people in front were talking quite noisily, otherwise Xiang Hongxuan would have made it impossible for them to get out of bed.

At this time, the fifty people who were selected had finished eating all the dishes, but their faces all showed an expression of being unsatisfied.

When they were finally asked to vote, potato pancakes were the most popular choice.

The remaining votes are almost the same.

"General, these potatoes are delicious."

"Yeah, General, I ate three baked potatoes in one sitting."

"General, will I be able to eat it again in the future?"

Normally, these people basically didn't dare to talk to Xiang Hongxuan like this because they always thought the general was a cold person.

His reputation was so great that even though they called them brothers every day, they did not dare to smile at the general.

I don’t even dare to joke like I did just now.

"Li Fei, take them all away first."

"Yes, General. But General, this is really delicious."

Xiang Hongxuan glared at Li Fei, and Li Fei quickly took the man away.

"How are you, General Xiang? My potatoes are good, aren't they?"
