Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Just like that, that night, before Li Xiaoran could recover from the excitent of becoming the Seventh Prince’s concubine and the free gold dal, an imperial chef arrived.
When she heard that it was an imperial chef sent by the emperor, Li Xiaoran was imdiately excited.
She had heard many stories about imperial chefs in her life, but this was the first ti she had seen an imperial chef in person.
Speaking of which, the people in the royal family Li Xiaoran were most interested in weren’t the current emperor, the emperor’s concubines, or th princes and ministers. Instead, they were the imperial chefs and imperial physicians.
Imperial physicians were doctors with superb dical skills.
As for imperial chefs, they were carefully selected. Without so capabilities, they couldn’t be imperial chefs.
Therefore, when Fan Dechang arrived at the Seventh Prince’s residence, Li Xiaoran dragged Luo Cheng over excitedly to et this imperial chef.
After knowing that this imperial chef was good at cooking Sichuan cuisine, Li Xiaoran beca even more interested.
“Why don’t you make a few Sichuan dishes tonight?!” Li Xiaoran thought for a mont and said, “We want a combination of at and vegetables, and there have to be both spicy and mild dishes. Five dishes are enough. You can do whatever you want with the rest!”
Fan Dechang had thought that the Seventh Prince’s wife would make things difficult for him, but he didn’t expect the requirents to be so simple.
After being stunned for a mont, Fan Dechang asked, “Seventh Prince, can you provide all the ingredients I want?”
“No need. Use whatever we have in the kitchen! If there’s really not enough, go buy more! However, don’t use any special ingredients. Just common ingredients will do! I’m not picky about ingredients!” Li Xiaoran understood what Fan Dechang ant and replied.
Fan Dechang knew what to do now. He imdiately nodded and asked soone to bring him to the kitchen.
After sending Fan Dechang off, Luo Cheng, who had been silent the entire ti, looked at Li Xiaoran’s excited expression and couldn’t help but ask, “You want to eat it that much? Didn’t I bring you out to eat it before?”
Li Xiaoran shook her head as she said seriously, “You’re not born in Sichuan, so you don’t understand how I feel. Although there are also many delicious types of food outside, our penchant for chili hasn’t been satisfied. Although the dishes we ate at the restaurant that day tasted very good, I keep feeling that they lack so flavor. They don’t taste like food from Sichuan!”
When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he imdiately understood sothing.
Speaking of which, when she ate out that day, she felt that sothing was missing.
It tasted very delicious, but tasted felt a little different from Sichuan’s dishes.
At this mont, Luo Cheng understood sothing.
“Although chili can be planted everywhere, the chili nurtured in Sichuan’s unique climate tastes different from the chili nurtured elsewhere. Moreover, the quality of the ingredients used for cooking is also different! As the saying goes, each place nurtures its own inhabitants. Outside of Sichuan, even if the sa cooking thod is used, without the local vegetables and water quality, the taste of the dishes will always be different!”
Luo Cheng’s words imdiately reminded Li Xiaoran.
“It’s just like how the quality of tofu is different everywhere. The water quality is different in so places, so the tofu tastes different!”
Luo Cheng nodded when he heard Li Xiaoran’s words. That was probably the case.
After understanding this, Li Xiaoran was imdiately disappointed.
“In that case, the dishes cooked by the imperial chef today won’t have the taste of your hotown cuisine!”
“Not necessarily. At least, the dishes will be made by a chef from Sichuan and he’s an imperial chef, so he must have sothing extraordinary about him. Why don’t we look forward to it?!” Luo Cheng didn’t want to see Li Xiaoran disappointed and said.
Li Xiaoran nodded. Then, she waited to try the imperial chef’s cooking.
At the sa ti, the news that the emperor had rewarded the imperial chef to cook for the Seventh Prince quickly spread.
Many people gritted their teeth in hatred.
Although this was a small matter, many people saw through the emperor’s intentions from this small matter. In an instant, the Seventh Prince and his wife beca big shots in the capital.
In the streets and alleys, the identity of the Seventh Prince’s wife suddenly began to spread. The students who were waiting for the results of the general examination also heard the news.
Just as Li Yan was waiting for Young Master Qi in a restaurant, she suddenly heard the people outside discussing the Seventh Prince and his wife.
“You don’t know, right?! The Seventh Prince was removed from the royal family and went straight to Sichuan. As for the Seventh Prince’s wife, she’s just a girl from the countryside. She married the Seventh Prince by chance. That’s how she obtained what she has today! I have to say, this countrywoman is really lucky! If my family had t the Seventh Prince back then, my daughter might have been able to marry him. Now, she’s the Seventh Prince’s wife!” A man joked as he drank.
“Stop bragging! Even if the Seventh Prince appeared in front of you after he left the family, you wouldn’t have that sort of luck. Look at your daughter! How can the Seventh Prince like her?” Another man with a sore on his face said with disdain.
“The Seventh Prince’s wife is called Li Xiaoran. She’s just a peasant from Sichuan! What impressive abilities can a peasant have?” Mr.Yu slamd the wine bowl on the table as he shouted.
When Li Yan, who was sitting in the private room, heard Li Xiaoran’s na, her mind imdiately buzzed and she beca flustered. Impossible, impossible. She must have misheard!
Or perhaps they just had the sa na!
How could there be such a coincidence?!
At this mont, Qi Fei and Ai Mingze walked in.
When he saw Li Yan sitting there in a daze, disgust flashed across Qi Fei’s eyes.
Now that the examination was over, they no longer needed Li Yan.
If not for the fact that he wanted to calm Li Yan down to prevent her from spouting nonsense at this juncture, Qi Fei wouldn’t have made this trip.
“Why are you looking for ?” Qi Fei asked Li Yan after sitting down.
When Li Yan heard Qi Fei’s voice, she suddenly thought of sothing.
“Young Master Qi, you’re quite well-inford. What’s the background of the Seventh Prince and his wife? I heard that they’re from Sichuan?”
Qi Fei glanced at Li Yan. Although he was a little puzzled about why Li Yan would ask this, after he thought about it, he felt that it was normal.
After all, everyone had been discussing this recently. It was normal for Li Yan to ntion this.
Besides, the Seventh Prince’s wife was from Sichuan.
“I’m not sure about the details, but I received confirmation that the Seventh Prince’s wife’s na is indeed Li Xiaoran, and she ca from a small village in Sichuan..”
