Chapter 481: Greetings from Yikun Palace
Naturally, her father was worried about her, so he asked her mother to leave. Sun Yueru turned her gaze from the sky back to the present. The opportunity was fleeting, so thinking of this, Sun Yueru quickly walked towards her mother's courtyard.
The Sun family is still in chaos today, but at this time in the Yikun Palace, Concubine Yi is quite happy.
After all, her two sons and daughters-in-law were wearing the clothes she gave them, and they came to pay their respects to her. If she wasn't happy, who would be?
"Everyone, get up! Get up quickly! We are all family, why should we be so polite!" Concubine Yi shouted hurriedly after they were about to kneel down.
The four of them performed the ceremony before standing up. The Fifth Prince Yinqi sat on the left with the Fifth Lady, while Yinzhen sat on the right with Wen Yao, sitting opposite each other.
It was rare for the Fifth Prince to be so cheerful as today. "The brocade robe that my mother gave me fits me perfectly. I thought it would be a little tight because I have gained some weight recently, but it isn't."
"You, mother always leaves a little space when she makes clothes for you. Although this dress looks best when it is close to the body, it will be more comfortable if there is a little space," Concubine Yi said with a smile, and then looked at the Fifth Lady, "Ruoxiang will look great in this dress."
The Fifth Lady was a little shy, "Mother, you are too kind. As long as your daughter-in-law doesn't embarrass you, that's all."
"..." Concubine Yi was almost choked, "You just need to be cautious."
"Mother, Yaoyao has developed this kind of sausage. Although it has a layer of casing on the outside, it is also cleaned," Yinzhen explained, "It tastes really good. My son and Yaoyao ate it this morning and almost ate too much."
Concubine Yi watched the wooden box open and saw the so-called grilled sausage inside. The color was indeed the color of meat, but when she heard that the outside was that thing, "No... strange smell?"
"No!" Yinzhen looked at his mother, "Mother, you will know when you try it. You don't believe what my son said."
The Fifth Prince looked at his Ninth Brother and said, "Ninth Brother, give me some. I'll take it back and try it." The Fifth Prince didn't mind it. He had also fought in wars with the Emperor. He had no resistance to such food. Although it was wrapped in poop, his Ninth Brother ate it. If such a picky man like him said it was delicious, then it must be delicious!
"Yaoyao has already been arranged. She should have been sent to your house by now. She might have taken the wrong path with your brother and sister-in-law," Yinzhen glanced at Wen Yao, and when Wen Yao nodded, he looked at the Fifth Beile and replied.
"Thank you, Ninth Brother and Sister-in-law," Fifth Prince looked at his Ninth Brother, "Speaking of which, Ninth Brother and Sister-in-law like to tinker with new things, which actually helped her discover a lot of things."
The Fifth Prince said this and looked at Concubine Yi, "Mother, if you really dislike it, I don't dislike it, so I can take her back."
"Don't even think about it! This is a gift from Yaoyao to me. Qiu Ling, ask the kitchen to make it all," Concubine Yi looked at Wen Yao, "Do you want to bake this?"
"You can bake it or fry it. Frying will be a bit greasy. I had someone bake it this morning. I used stones and put the sausages on the stones. I also used a bread oven to bake a few. They were all good." Wen Yao told Concubine Yi about her experience. "Mother, you can ask someone to bake it with stones and try it."
The Fifth Lady looked at the grilled sausage and felt a little nauseous when she thought that the outer layer was the contents of her stomach. She tried hard to hold it in and asked, "Why did my Ninth Sister-in-law think of... thinking of eating something like this?"
"I am also a little curious. Most people would never think of such food," Concubine Yi's eyelids twitched. This thing was really something that most people would never think of.
"It's very simple actually. My father went to Shengjing once and brought back a lot of blood sausage. I ate the Nine-Turn Large Intestine a few days ago and thought of blood sausage, so I wondered if I could use meat instead. Actually, there is also a kind of dried sausage, but as for the color, I think people are still a little resistant to it, so I haven't given it to you for the time being," Wen Yao thought that the sausage was delicious, but the color and shape, if she were to give it to this group of people, it would probably be difficult to accept it in a short period of time, so she thought about it and gave up!
Yinzhen's mouth twitched, "Mother, that sausage is delicious, but you can't look at it. It will make you vomit."
"It's not that exaggerated, right? You and your tenth brother still enjoyed the meal." Wen Yao felt that this was a bit exaggerated, and then turned to look at Concubine Yi, "In fact, this is because the meat filling was added with clear sauce, and other things don't have this."
Concubine Yi could imagine it herself, but she was still prepared to accept it first and then taste the grilled sausage that Wen Yao mentioned.
The Fifth Lady also imagined it and decisively picked up the water cup beside her and drank it. She was a little confused as to why the Ninth Brother's wife, a prince's wife, liked to tinker with food so much.
The cooks who prepared these meals were all slaves, and their status was bondservants. It was not like a concubine would lower herself to do this job.
The Fifth Lady couldn't help but put down the cup in her hand and looked at Wen Yao opposite her. "Sister-in-law, let's leave the cooking to the cooks. If it gets out, it will be a joke for you, a concubine, to make these things. It will be bad if the girls of the Dong E family are implicated."
Concubine Yi took a few deep breaths. The Fifth Prince frowned and was about to speak, but Wen Yao took the lead and looked at the Fifth Lady who had just spoken, smiling and said, "What are you talking about, Fifth Sister-in-law? How could I implicate the girls of the Dong E family? I also like to study food. As the saying goes, food is the first necessity of the people, and there is nothing wrong with studying food. What's more, studying food is also for my husband to enjoy it more when he returns home."
Without waiting for the Fifth Lady to refute, Wen Yao continued, "Master has been busy outside all day and is exhausted. Sometimes he has no appetite when he returns home. We naturally feel bad for him, so we keep studying food to make him feel better when he returns. Only by eating and drinking well can you be healthier, which is much better than talking about wine and poetry with your husband."
"Wen Yao is right. Food is the first necessity of the people. No family can live without food. Such research is also to make the family healthier and eat more comfortably. So how can it implicate others? What Wen Yao did, the girls of the Dong E family are now unavailable." Concubine Yi said with a smile, "Many people have asked me about this."
Yinzhen glanced at the Fifth Lady across from him, and said with a smile, "Even if Fifth Sister-in-law doesn't like to delve into food, we can't stop Master's Lady from delving into food. In fact, if she delve into food and sells it, she can continue to increase Master's money. What's wrong with that? Fifth Sister-in-law doesn't like to delve into food, and she doesn't like to delve into other things. Fifth Brother has no other income. I'm not saying this to you, but Fifth Brother's salary alone can't support an entire mansion."
