Chapter 111：

Three days later, the sun was shining brightly and Rong Di's mission returned.

Pei Yan specially arranged for Tao Ti and Qiong Qi to meet each other.

Looking at the little sister’s red eyes, Qiong Qi patted Tao Ti’s shoulder, coaxing her like a big sister, “Well, I’m all such a big person, and I’m still crying. Besides, decades have passed in the blink of an eye. , When you come back, I will open a yacht party for you, then we will get together."

Tao Ti sniffed, "Well, I see."

Qiong Qi took a deep look at her, and sighed in her heart that Ati has changed a lot during this journey. Compared with the way she used to only know how to eat and drink, her emotions have become more delicate.

The two simply said goodbye. Before leaving, Qiong Qi smiled at her, "The one in your family who is willing to arrange you to see me shows that it is for you. Ati, I wish you two grow old together, full of children and grandchildren... oh no It hurts to have children, and the medical environment in ancient times was so bad.

Seeing that she had even arranged the childbirth, Tao Ti couldn't laugh or cry, "It's still early."

Qiong Qi looked at her full spring and ruddy complexion, and said to her heart: In ancient times, there were no family planning supplies. As long as Pei Yan's body is okay, he won the prize for at most half a year, right?

"If I hadn't gone back to Dayuan when you gave birth, I would definitely give you a big gift." Qiong Qi smiled with a mouthful of white and shiny big teeth.

"Okay, I'll wait." Tao Ti bends the corner of his eyes.

The two smiled at each other and said "Take care" to each other.

…

Upstairs in the palace, Tao Ti watched Rong Di's mission leave, facing the wind, the corners of his eyes were a little moist.

She stood quietly for a long time, until Pei Yan took a silver-lined moon-white cloak and put it on her. She recovered and squeezed a smile at him, "Your Highness."

Pei Yan looked at the corners of her red eyes, curled her brows, and carefully tied the cloak for her.

He raised his hand and squeezed her soft little face, pretending to be serious, "Aren't you afraid that I will be jealous?"

Tao Ti was startled first, and then burst out with a chuckle, and took the initiative to take a step forward, naturally hugging his waist with both hands, tilting his small head, looking at him with big sullen eyes, "Your Majesty is jealous, it's better to eat something. Dip the crab in **** vinegar."

Her obedient and deft gesture made Pei Yan no longer embarrassed.

Sometimes he thought whether he was too good to coax him, she was so soft and coquettish, he had nothing to do with her.

"Let's go, it's windy here, and my head hurts after blowing it for a long time."

Pei Yan took her hand and said softly, "I heard that Mrs. Dingbeihou entered the palace today, and Xu Wenchan should have also come. You may go and play with her."

Tao Ti followed him downstairs and curiously said, "Madam Hou is in the palace at this time...Ah, is she here to see the princess?"

Pei Yan said, "It's 80%."

Tao Ti’s eyes flashed with gossip, and Madam Hou came to see the princess for Qinghe and Xu Qige, or for A Chan and Xie Xiaopai?

Regardless of that thing, she is very curious!

Pei Yan lowered his eyes and twitched the corners of his mouth when he saw that there was no more parting sadness between her eyebrows.

The emotions of this little girl really come and go fast.

It was still in the morning, when Pei Yan went to the Zixiao Hall at the East Palace to Demen, Tao Ti went straight back to her Yaoguang Hall.

She wanted to have lunch before going to find Xu Wenchan and Qinghe, but she never thought that Xu Wenchan was already waiting for her in Yaoguang Hall.

"A Chan, shouldn't you be with the princess right now?" Tao Ti was surprised.

"Hey, my mother is talking to the eldest princess. I am restrained and unable to speak. What will I do when I stay?" Xu Wenchan is holding the ingot, one person and one cat are relaxed, "You are still the most comfortable place here. ."

"What about Qinghe, why didn't she come with you?"

Xu Wenchan said, "It's not convenient for her to go out today. It's probably because of a monthly affair, and she is resting in bed."

After all, she put down the ingot in her arms and couldn't wait to say, "Ati, come on, I brought you a rare thing."

Tao Ti went with him.

I saw in the small kitchen, filled with several baskets of fresh fruit, including pomelo, cherry, jujube, pomegranate, plum, and in the last basket, durian? !

"This honey pomelo is a treasure from the south. Cherries and jujubes are from Jinan Prefecture. Pomegranates and plums are new from my family's Zhuangzi. They are just delicious."

Xu Wenchan said clearly, and when she talked about the last basket of weird-shaped fruits, she paused, "This basket of mace-like things was brought back by the fleet from the Luohu country. , It seems to be called gambling, and their fleet gave a nickname, stinky fruit. The man in charge told me that this stinky fruit looks ugly, but the taste of the flesh is excellent. I look at it. , I brought it to you."

Tao Ti said that it is quite rare. In modern times, the price of a durian is not cheap, not to mention the ancient times when materials were scarce. That is to say, Dingbei Hou Mansion is rich and wealthy, and travels all over the world to purchase fresh fruits from foreign countries, which allows him to take advantage of it.

She looked at the few mature durians and asked casually, "Have you tasted it?"

Xu Wenchan frowned immediately, a little embarrassed, "I couldn't avoid it when I sniffed the taste. My father, mother, and a few brothers didn't want to taste it. I wondered how knowledgeable you are, maybe you have a good idea. You can make this fruit less smelly."

People who like durian can't wait to eat it every day, and those who don't like it can't wait to run away by clutching their noses.

Obviously, for the ancients, this fruit is indeed a bit weird.

Tao Ti smiled, "You missed the crayfish last time. This time...Bet you guys, don't miss it."

Linglong was holding her breath when she heard the words of the princess. She instantly remembered the memorable taste of crayfish and said in surprise, "Prince princess, you can make crayfish so delicious, this bet Er Yan can you do it too?"

Tao Ti blinked his clear eyes and smiled lightly, "Of course I can do it. Bet Eryan is full of treasures. Anyway, I'm idle at the moment, let's make some food with these fresh fruits."

Xu Wenchan became energetic as soon as he heard the food, and said with a smile, "I knew it was right to drag these things to you!"

Tao Ti nodded her face, "Just your sweet mouth. Don't want to be idle, come and give me a hand."

Xu Wenchan gave her a playful smile, blessed her body, and learned the tone of the palace lady, "Because of the prince's order."

The two laughed, **** their sleeves and aprons, and turned around in the small kitchen.

There are five large durians in a basket, and Tao Ti asked the palace staff to open one first. Durian is a fruit, and it is best to eat fresh.

The little **** who opened the durian suffocated his breath all the way, and split the durian in a brave gesture, only to see the golden flesh under the hard shell, not so smelly, but a light sweet fragrance.

Tao Ti made a small piece by himself, picked it up, and delivered it to his mouth. Durian has a smooth, glutinous taste, creamy and tender like cream, rich in fragrance, with the unique sweetness of durian.

Xu Wenchan, Linglong and others on the side stared at her with wide eyes, as if she was doing a great challenge.

Tao Ti ate one piece in two or three bites, "This tastes really good."

Seeing that everyone else had an unspeakable expression, Tao Ti gave Xu Wenchan a wicked smile, "Achan, try a piece of it?"

Xu Wenchan took a step back: Thank you, you don't have to.

Tao Ti didn't force her to accept it. She was going to make some pastries with durian first, so that she could adapt slowly. Maybe she fell in love with this bite?

She asked the palace staff to take out the remaining durian meat, put it in the ice mirror, and collect it again.

Xu Wenchan asked suspiciously, "Ati, what do you keep this shell for? Can this shell be eaten too? It's tough, you have to pierce your mouth."

Tao Ti smiled, "This durian shell is a good thing. It has the effects of clearing heat and reducing fire, replenishing blood and nourishing yin. Moreover, you don't want to eat the shell, but the white flesh in the shell. This is used to stew chicken soup. It tastes very good."

Not to mention Xu Wenchan, the palace people all over the house had an incredible expression.

Tao Ti didn't explain much, just smiled lightly and started to get busy.

Today, due to Rong Di’s mission leaving Chang’an, Taixue took a day off, and the Fifth Prince and the Sixth Princess finally had time to run to the East Palace.

They missed the prince and sister-in-law, the flowers, flowers and ingots of Yaoguang Hall, and even the delicacies made by the sister-in-law!

"Xiao Liu, the moon cakes my sister-in-law gave me the past two days, which filling do you like best?" the fifth prince asked.

"My sister-in-law makes delicious, but I like lotus seed paste and egg yolk the most." The sixth princess replied.

"Isn't it the best fresh meat?!" The fifth prince asked in surprise.

"..."

"The fresh meat is so delicious, fragrant and crisp, and the fillings inside are also fresh and juicy." The fifth prince recalled the taste of fresh meat mooncakes while feeling that his **** was hot.

Alas, is that something a mother can do?

Others' mothers were afraid that their children would not have enough food, so their mothers and concubines rushed to eat with them.

The sixth princess did not know why her fifth brother sighed. She pursed her lips, lowered her head and chose to remain silent.

The two walked side by side to Yaoguang Hall. As soon as they walked to the door, the two little ones smelled an indescribable smell—

It is fragrant and smelly with a rich sweetness.

The two children looked at each other. What are they doing?

The two of them walked in quickly. Xu Wenchan came out with a plate of durian pastry. Seeing two more snacks came, he smiled, "The fifth prince and the sixth princess are here by coincidence. This snack has just been prepared and it is still warm. ."

It is always easy to develop a tacit understanding between foodies and foodies.

The fifth prince and the sixth princess went to the small kitchen and greeted Tao Ti. Tao Ti was also very happy to see them coming, "I made a pot of chicken soup, and you just stayed for lunch."

The two children responded docilely and politely, and went out to tease the cat.

Tao Ti puts the chicken nuggets and the processed durian shell in a pot, then adds jujube, wolfberry, and ginger, and simmers slowly on the casserole. Thinking that one chicken soup was not enough, I made a few more dishes.

Soon, the scent of meat and vegetables gradually overshadowed the scent of durian, and the greedy people once again swallowed frantically.

Near noon, the golden autumn sun was shining brightly, and a series of exquisite dishes were put on the table.

There are golden, small and delicate poached tenderloin, fragrant cumin lamb, and a big pot of spicy crab, red and bright. In addition to the crab, there are potatoes, lotus root slices, vegetables, bean sprouts, mushrooms, rice cakes, etc. The dishes are sprinkled with biying-ying chopped cilantro and green onions, and a layer of white sesame seeds that are charred. Just looking at the appearance will make people move their index fingers.

Compared to these dishes, the Durian Chicken Soup that was served at the end had a dark taste.

On a table, except for Tao Ti's smile, Xu Wenchan's small five and small six frowned. Can this thing be drunk?

"Don't be prejudiced." Tao Ti scooped a bowl for herself. "In fact, after being cooked, there is no smell, but a delicate fragrance. Don't believe you smell it carefully."

The three of them hesitated for a moment, but still smelled it.

It is not unpleasant indeed, and there is a burst of strong fruity aroma.

Tao Ti took another sip, squinted in enjoyment, and sighed deliberately, "Not bad."

Seeing her like this, the three of them were dubious and eager to try.

In the end, the five princes mustered up the courage and said in a loud voice, "Then I will try it too."

The palace man hurriedly served him a bowl, only to see that the soup was clear, there was a layer of light yellow chicken fat on the surface, plus the red medlar and jujube, it looked very tonic.

The fifth prince first took a sip carefully, then he took a big sip with his mouth wide open, his eyes brightened, and he stared at Tao Ti with a stunned look, "Delicious!"

When he said so, Liu Princess and Xu Wenchan couldn't restrain their curiosity, and each scooped a bowl.

The taste of durian stewed chicken is somewhat similar to coconut stewed chicken. The strong smell of durian dissipates a lot with heating, and the fragrance of fruit pulp and pulp has completely penetrated into the soup, neutralizing the greasiness and increasing the refreshingness of the soup. The taste is delicious and mellow, wonderful.

The people of the Great Yuan Dynasty mostly like sweets, so this sweet chicken soup quickly conquered the three foodies present.

Xu Wenchan chewed the chicken, nodded unceasingly, and praised, "This chicken is really tender, tender and fresh!"

The sixth princess said, "The white fruit pulp here is glutinous, like chestnuts and taro. It's sweet and delicious."

Seeing that they could accept the soup, Tao Ti was happy, "After lunch, I also prepared desserts."

Tao Ti originally wanted to give Pei Yan a portion, after all, this soup was quite healthy. But after thinking about it, he had never seen durian either. At first he sent such a strange soup, he might not be very comfortable with it, so he didn't let Linglong send it. Only left another soup, waiting for him to come back to drink at night.

At the dinner table, Tao Ti and Xu Wenchan chatted, "Your mother came to see the princess today, is it for you or your seventh brother?"

Xu Wenchan nibbled the crab, and said vaguely, "For my seventh brother. What do you do for me, I am innocent and unselfish with Xiaogongye Xie."

Tao Ti blinked, "Are you not interested in Grandpa Xie?"

The fifth prince couldn't help but interject, "That's right, Xie's cousin is as handsome as a fairy, do you look down on Sister Xu?"

Xu Wenchan was stunned, his black face blushed, and the redness was not so obvious, and he scorned, "Although he is quite handsome, but I really don't have that thought for him. I am only thinking about doing business and opening Shop, earn money, there is no time to get married..."

Tao Ti tentatively asked, "If so, does Xie Xiao Gongye please you?"

Xu Wenchan took the crab's legs for a while, before she lowered her eyes, "It's his business that he is pleased with him. Is it possible that if he pleases me, I have to marry him?"

Tao Ti was speechless for a while.

After all, what A Chan said is reasonable.

So this is the dream of the king, and the goddess has no intentions?
