"Qiu Yu, take these two drawings and go to the carpentry shop and the oil paper shop respectively. Ask the carpentry master to carve out the fruit, flower, and animal patterns drawn on the drawings, and go to Go to the oil paper shop and ask them to make some oil paper of different colors according to the dimensions on the drawing."
"Okay, miss, I'll go right away."
"Remember, if the shops here in Dongcheng District don't know how to do it, you can go to the shops in other districts and ask."
"I know, I will definitely complete the task you gave me."
After Qiu Yu went out, Su Lele went to find the housekeeper.
"Butler, please order someone to make a thousand thin wooden sticks for me. The length should be the length of your middle finger. Let them make them within the next two days. I need them urgently."
"Okay, Princess."
It is estimated that the materials such as molds and oil paper will take two days at the fastest to complete. It seems that it cannot be done today. In the future, it seems that the materials will need to be prepared a few days in advance.
It has been several days since she made food with her own hands. It seems that she will make some meals with her own hands today to comfort herself and the prince. The prince has not eaten much in the evenings these past few days, and I heard Leng Feng say that he doesn't eat much in the morning and noon either.
Moving to the large dining room, Su Lele asked Chef He: "Chef, are there large pieces of pork belly in the dining room?"
"Yes, I brought back half a fan of pork from Zhuangzi this morning. I'm afraid that the pork will taste bad, so I'm keeping it in the ice warehouse now."
"Take it out and defrost it now. I'll use it later."
"OK."
Then Su Lele glanced at the large wooden barrel used to raise fish in the dining room: "Chef He, didn't you buy any fish today?"
"Yes, Princess. Fish tastes fishy when cooked, so no one likes it, and the prince rarely eats fish."
"You order someone to buy me a big fat-headed fish. And we only need to make chicken soup in the dining room tonight."
"Okay, Princess."
It seemed that the princess was going to cook again today. Now he fell in love with the snacks made by the princess, as well as her pickled, fragrant and oily salted duck eggs. He was lucky enough to eat one. The salted duck eggs went perfectly with the white porridge.
After Su Lele finished her instructions, she walked back to the Yanyu Pavilion Villa with brisk steps. After a while, she saw her lying comfortably on the deck chair in the pavilion and falling asleep.
After her nap, she walked leisurely to the dining room, refreshed. The pork belly and fat-headed fish prepared by Chef He were already placed on the table, and the fat-headed fish had also been killed and cleaned.
It seems that Chef He is very careful in his work and deserves praise. You can give him some snacks as a reward, and at the same time show the servants in the house what it means to have clear rewards and punishments.
"Chunmei, go and get some snacks for Chef He. Because he is more careful in his work, this concubine rewarded him."
"OK."
After a while, Chef He received a large gift box of snacks from the princess. He was extremely surprised and did not forget to brag to several other chefs.
Su Lele plans to make crispy pork belly first.
First, you need to use a thin needle to prick the skin of the pork belly, and prick the pork skin densely. Then clean the pork, apply a layer of wine on the side of the meat, and then rub sugar, salt, and allspice on the pork.
Wrap the meat part in oil paper, then use a clean cloth to dry the surface of the pig skin, apply a layer of salt, let it sit for a quarter of an hour to let the pig skin drain out, wipe off the exuded water, and apply a layer of salt white vinegar, and then refrigerate the pork belly for half an hour.
During this period, Su Lele prepared all the ingredients needed for other dishes.
"Qiu Yu, please inform the butler and ask him to order the servant to inform the prince to return to the palace early tonight. There will be good food and wine waiting for him to taste."
"okay."
The prince is in for a treat again tonight.
Then Su Lele used a fine needle to prick the skin of the refrigerated pork belly again, pricking it densely, smearing a layer of vinegar on the skin, and then smearing a layer of salt on the skin, and then you can start roasting.
After instructing her servants to bake the pork belly in the oven for two-quarters of an hour, she started to prepare other dishes.
At this time, Leng Yichen was discussing secret matters with the prince.
Lengfeng came to report: "My lord, the princess asked you to return to the palace early. There will be good food and wine tonight."
The prince took a sip of tea gracefully and smiled: "The second emperor brother is in for a treat tonight."
Leng Yichen's lips curled up slightly: "Prince, let's go to the palace for dinner tonight. There will be lotus wine. We haven't had a drink together for a long time."
After hearing this, the prince's dark eyes rolled. He had been craving for that lotus wine for a long time and had already finished the few cans in the house.
"Then the prince is welcome."
Yanyu Pavilion Dining Room
Su Lele is making braised fish fillets.
Qiu Yu: "Miss, the prince will return to the palace for dinner with the prince later."
"Um."
It seems that the prince has invited the prince to have a meal. It seems that it is not appropriate to invite only the prince.
"Qiu Yu, inform the steward and ask him to send someone to the Prince's Mansion to invite the Crown Princess and the Young Crown Prince. The Young Princess will come to the Prince's Mansion for dinner."
Su Lele has a good grasp of human relations and sophistication.
Considering that there are children, Su Lele plans to cook a few more dishes that children will love.
After the braised fish pieces were cooked, she put the chopped pepper sauce she had made before on the fish head that had been marinated in white wine, green onion and ginger, then poured a little soy sauce, and finally steamed the fish head in the pot for ten minutes. That's it.
It was estimated that the prince and the others were already on their way back, so Su Lele speeded up and made braised pork ribs, fried crispy pork, braised shrimps, fish-flavored shredded pork, and stir-fried beans.
Finally, add a savory and glutinous fried pumpkin with salted egg yolk and it's done.
Su Lele quickly and easily coated the pumpkin pieces in flour, then fried the pumpkin pieces in a pan until golden brown and the skin was crispy. The salted egg yolk has also been crushed by the maid. Pour a little oil into the pot, then add the crushed salted egg yolk, stir-fry over low heat until it becomes sandy, then add the pumpkin pieces, stir well and serve on the plate.
After finishing her work, Su Lele strode into the room. She smelled of oily smoke and planned to change her clothes.
At this time, several carriages stopped in front of the palace.
After the young prince and the young princess were carried out of the carriage by the nun who was serving them, they found that the people coming out of the two carriages next door were very familiar to them.
The lively and cute little princess Leng Yening ran straight to her second uncle, completely ignoring her father and prince.
"Uncle Second Emperor, I miss you so much." Leng Yening smiled sweetly at him.
Leng Yichen gently rubbed her little head and picked her up easily.
The prince saw his own daughter immediately forgetting her father's behavior whenever she saw the emperor's uncle, and expressed his dissatisfaction. But there is nothing I can do about it, because my precious daughter has been so attached to the cold second emperor brother since she was two years old.
The quiet little prince Leng Yesian walked towards his father with steady steps.
The Crown Prince Leng Yiting looked at his children and the Crown Princess walking towards him. What else did he not understand?
He glanced sideways at his second emperor brother and grinned: "Yichen, the princess is so thoughtful. She even called a few of them over. It seems our family is in for a treat tonight."
"Um."
After responding, Leng Yichen continued to walk toward the dining room with his little niece in his arms. The little prince and his parents, who didn't need anyone to hold them, followed him behind.
The moment they stepped into the dining room, everyone was attracted by the table full of delicious, delicious and tasty meals.
