"Father!"
As soon as Zhu Biao looked up, he saw Zhu Yuanzhang who was very angry, and he immediately shouted out.
At this time, Queen Ma and the other princes also came in one by one.
"Father!"
Zhu Xi also shouted towards Zhu Yuanzhang.
At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang had no intention of reminiscing with his son. Instead, he asked solemnly: "Where is Su Jing?"
This treated his son as a servant, but he was nowhere to be seen.
This is simply outrageous!
Lao Zhu's anger is a bit big!
"Master, don't worry for now. Mr. Su may have other important matters."
Queen Ma immediately comforted her.
When she saw Zhu Biao and Zhu Xi serving tea and water, she felt a little confused.
But she didn't think Su Jing was the kind of person who would treat Zhu Biao and Zhu Ru harshly.
"Is it important? If no one is here, can you let the boss and the fifth man serve tea and water here?"
Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily.
Princes like Zhu Xi and Zhu Fan were also surprised when they saw that their eldest brother was actually doing the work of the servants.
Their father was angry, and they wanted to ask but knew that now was not the time to ask.
When Zhu Biao heard Zhu Yuanzhang's words, he immediately realized that Zhu Yuanzhang had misunderstood.
He immediately ran to Zhu Yuanzhang and said: "Father, you have misunderstood Master Su. He is preparing lunch in the backyard kitchen. There is no one at home, so my fifth brother and I are pouring tea here."
Zhu Biao didn't say any nonsense, and everything he said was the key points.
He knew Zhu Yuanzhang's temper, so he grasped it clearly.
Sure enough, when Zhu Yuanzhang heard this explanation, most of his anger was immediately reduced.
Su Jing prepares lunch.
There is no servant at home.
This shows that Su Jing is not deliberately ordering Zhu Biao and Zhu Ru. After all, he is still working in the kitchen.
As the saying goes, a gentleman stays far away from the kitchen. Most people really don't want to go to a place like the kitchen.
Su Jing is very talented and knowledgeable. Being able to go to the kitchen in person is definitely a sign of sincerity.
"Master, you also heard that Mr. Su treats the eldest and fifth eldest brother very well."
Queen Ma immediately followed.
As soon as these words came out, Zhu Yuanzhang could only snort coldly and stopped pursuing it.
"Second brother, third brother, fourth brother, sixth brother, and seventh brother, please come in and eat mooncakes. These mooncakes are all made by us and Master Su."
Zhu Biao greeted his brothers again.
When they heard that it was mooncakes, Zhu and the others were not very interested.
In the palace, moon cakes can be eaten all the time many days ago.
They had long since grown tired of it, and that was that.
Zhu Biao saw what his brothers were thinking and said with a smile: "The mooncakes we make are different. You can't buy them anywhere else except here. I believe you, brother, you will never regret eating them."
Zhu Biao believes that the charm of fresh meat mooncakes is unstoppable.
"real?"
The sixth child Zhu Zhen said curiously: "Then I want to eat."
He was young and ran in quickly when he was greedy.
Old Seventh Zhu Shu also quickly followed.
Zhu Biao stuffed each of them with a large fresh meat moon cake, which was a good thing that could not be eaten in the palace.
Zhu Zhen and Zhu Zhu couldn't wait to bite it, and their mouths were filled with the smell of meat.
"tasty!"
“Brother, it’s so delicious!”
The words of the two people immediately attracted the attention of Zhu Xi and others.
How delicious could this mooncake be?
"Brother, let me have a try too."
"give me one."
"I want to try one too."
Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, and Zhu Di all asked for a fresh meat mooncake from Zhu Biao.
However, the three of them had different ideas. Zhu Ping just wanted to see if this mooncake was really that delicious.
Zhu Fan was generally curious and wanted to see what the mooncakes made by Su Jing tasted like.
As for Zhu Di, it was purely because Su Jing did it.
The three of them took a bite one by one. Compared to Zhu Zhen and Zhu Zhu who simply shouted directly, their expressions were a little strange at first.
Because the taste is very different from the mooncakes they have eaten for many years.
Salty and meaty.
It was completely different from their mental presets. The taste in their minds and the taste in their mouths were so different that they didn't know how to describe the impact.
Zhu Biao and Zhu Xi looked at them, not surprised.
Because it was like this when they ate it for the first time.
"Brother, is this still a mooncake?"
Zhu Xi asked with a look of disbelief, but he had already killed the fresh meat mooncake in his hand.
Zhu Fan tasted it carefully and said, "It's really a surprising mooncake. Brother, is this Mr. Su's special creation?"
Zhu Di said nothing after eating the mooncakes, but the taste of the fresh meat mooncakes was already engraved in his memory.
Zhu Biao smiled and said: "Of course these are mooncakes. They are fresh meat mooncakes specially made by Mr. Su. There are many more, so feel free to eat them."
"Fresh meat mooncakes? What are they? Is meat stuffed in the mooncakes?"
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned when he saw his sons eating so happily.
In his life, he had never heard of mooncakes with meat fillings. Just hearing the name made him instinctively reject it.
"Father, you'll know after you try one. It's really delicious."
Zhu Biao handed a fresh meat mooncake to Zhu Yuanzhang and looked at him expectantly.
Zhu Yuanzhang took the moon cake with some hesitation.
But he still took a bite, and the meat juice instantly filled Zhu Yuanzhang's entire mouth, and an indescribable feeling of awkwardness came to his heart.
puff!
Zhu Yuanzhang vomited it out without even finishing a bite.
"How could this be a mooncake?"
Zhu Yuanzhang said with a look of disbelief.
This frightened Zhu Biao, as well as all the princes who were enjoying themselves.
They never expected that their father, Zhu Yuanzhang, would react so much to eating moon cakes.
"Father, the child didn't do it on purpose."
Zhu Biao immediately apologized, looking very remorseful.
At this time, Su Jing's voice came: "Niu Yi, what is there to apologize for? It's not your fault that you can't eat fresh meat mooncakes, it's your father's fault."
After finishing her work, Su Jing could finally take a rest. She saw this scene as soon as she came to the front hall.
Lao Zhu's reaction was really like those friends in his previous life who couldn't eat fresh meat mooncakes.
"Master Su."
When Zhu Biao saw Su Jing coming, he immediately shouted.
At this moment, the gazes of all the princes instantly shifted from Zhu Yuanzhang to Su Jing.
This is Mr. Su!
Their eldest brother Zhu Biao's teacher, the famous Mr. Su in the palace!
Now he stood in front of them very clearly.
They even forgot that as soon as Su Jing appeared, she choked their father Zhu Yuanzhang.
If this were anywhere else, how could anyone dare to do this?
Looking for death?
All the princes now looked at Su Jing with great curiosity, wondering what kind of virtues and abilities he had to become the teacher of their eldest brother, Prince Zhu Biao.
"Su Jing, this mooncake is so unpalatable, why do you call it gourmet food?"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Su Jing, took a bite of the fresh meat mooncake, and said angrily.
Su Jing glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang and said calmly: "Aren't these all your sons? Just ask them if they taste good or bad."
One sentence directly brought the topic to the princes.
This made the princes a little confused. They were just eating moon cakes. Why did the matter turn around themselves?
What is the best answer now?
Is it delicious?
Isn't this a slap in the face to his father in public?
Isn’t it delicious?
I ate so deliciously just now, how about talking nonsense now?
This is Mr. Su. Is it really okay to tell lies just after meeting him?
At this time, Su Jing put Zhu and the other princes on fire with just one word. The fresh meat mooncakes in her hands were neither edible nor unpalatable.
The scene suddenly became awkward.
"Come on, come on, I haven't eaten this meat mooncake before, let me try it."
Queen Ma said with a smile, it was up to her to break the deadlock.
"Mother."
Zhu Biao handed over the moon cake.
Queen Ma took it and took a bite. There was not much change in the expression on her face. She just chewed it carefully for a while and then said:
"Mr. Su's fresh meat mooncakes are really original and have a unique taste. They are completely different from the mooncakes I often eat. It seems that my father ate too many bean paste mooncakes when he was a child, and it was hard to accept it for a while."
Queen Ma's words mean that both parties have been taken care of.
As soon as these words came out, Su Jing and Zhu Yuanzhang no longer struggled with this issue.
Queen Ma still has a lot of face.
The princes breathed a sigh of relief, but they were determined not to eat the fresh meat mooncakes under Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes.
"Mr. Su, I'm sorry for interrupting you. I'm sorry for the offence."
Queen Ma bowed slightly towards Su Jing.
Su Jing immediately said: "Anyway, it's an honor for me, madam, to come. It's also thanks to your arrival that I'm a little more popular."
Although she had a quarrel with Lao Zhu just now, Su Jing didn't take it to heart.
It was normal for some people not to like eating fresh meat mooncakes, and he completely understood.
I'm just a little dissatisfied with Lao Zhu's attitude of denying it if he can't accept it.
Putting this aside, this stubborn uncle Lao Zhu is still quite cute.
"Come, let me introduce you to Mr. Su."
Queen Ma then introduced the princes to Su Jing.
Of course, they are all pseudonyms prepared in advance.
Every time someone was mentioned, they bowed respectfully to Su Jing. The etiquette was quite in place and there was nothing sloppy about it.
This was not because of Empress Ma's warning in advance, but simply because of Su Jing's reputation.
Just now they saw that Su Jing was not weak at all when confronting Zhu Yuanzhang, and now they looked at Su Jing's eyes with incomparable respect.
A teacher who could even choke his own father, but who finally relied on his mother to save him, was not someone he could disrespect.
At this time, they had another understanding of Su Jing's position in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart.
"Well, it's all good, pretty good."
Su Jing nodded.
Not to mention, all of Lao Zhu's sons are pretty good-looking, at least they don't have any crooked melons or cracked dates.
Children from wealthy families are pretty good in this regard.
"I heard that Mr. Su personally prepared lunch today. I also occasionally cook at home. I hope I can help Mr. Su."
Queen Ma said again.
When Zhu Yuanzhang was on the war, although Empress Ma was a wealthy daughter, she also learned a lot of life skills for Zhu Yuanzhang.
Culinary skills are, of course, a no-brainer.
Knowing that Su Jing was going to cook by herself and there was no servant at home, Queen Ma would not let Su Jing cook alone.
This is already a big disturbance to Su Jing during the Mid-Autumn Festival, so you must be polite.
"It would be great if Madam can come and help."
Su Jing nodded and agreed directly.
Zhu Biao said from the side: "Don't worry, mother, the children will also help. Today, my fifth brother and I are half masters, and we will definitely entertain you well."
"Okay, then we, mother and son, will go together."
Queen Ma nodded, quite happy.
"Mother, we also want to help."
Zhu Xi said, followed by several other people who echoed behind him.
They are not stupid, this is an opportunity to show off.
Moreover, Queen Ma has gone to the kitchen. Doesn't this mean that they are going to be alone with their father, Zhu Yuanzhang.
It’s a bit scary to think about it!
Queen Ma looked at Su Jing and said, "Mr. Su, the children have ideas. If the kitchen is inconvenient, it's okay to give them some chores."
Su Jing glanced at these princes and then at Lao Zhu, and she probably understood a little bit.
"Okay, it's okay, come on, the kitchen is big, don't worry."
Su Jing smiled and nodded.
Then a group of people entered the kitchen in a mighty manner, leaving only Zhu Yuanzhang alone in the front hall.
This made Zhu Yuanzhang a little embarrassed. Could it be that he wanted to go too?
This idea flashed across his mind and was directly rejected by Zhu Yuanzhang.
Although Su Jing's eyes didn't meet hers just now, they were obviously not very friendly.
If this happens on its own, it would be a sign of submission.
Zhu Yuanzhang subconsciously took a bite of the mooncake, but as soon as he entered it, he found that it was still fresh meat mooncake, and he almost spit it out again.
"Can this thing be called a moon cake?"
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned as he looked at the fresh meat mooncake in his hand.
This smell was really hard for him to accept.
It's not just physical distress, it's psychological distress as well.
In fact, the taste is not that unpleasant, but it is just too different from what I imagined.
In the early years of the war, there was no food and nothing to eat.
Lao Zhu took another tentative bite, suppressed his inner emotions, and tasted it carefully.
Seems pretty good too.
Um!
Can't waste it.
Zhu Yuanzhang hinted to himself and continued to eat.
After eliminating the psychological discomfort, not to mention, Zhu Yuanzhang still felt the different deliciousness of fresh meat mooncakes.
The kitchen is in full swing.
Nine people poured in at this time, which means Su Jing's kitchen is big enough, otherwise it would be really crowded.
Zhu Zhu was lighting the fire, Su Jing was working on the main stove, and Queen Ma was handling various dishes that needed to be heated.
The other princes, under the command of Queen Ma, were also very orderly, and everyone had their own things to do.
Just this move made Su Jing very surprised.
Queen Ma is worthy of being the wife of a wealthy family. Her commanding ability is unmatched by many men.
In this era where boys are valued over girls, it can be said to be very powerful.
"Mr. Su, if there is anything else that needs to be done, just tell me. I can do it."
Queen Ma said to Su Jing.
Working in the kitchen with her sons like this is what he and she have always wanted to do.
A family that is happy and harmonious is like a family.
