To say that they have spent a lot of time serving Shen Jingjing, Shen Jingjing is the richest daughter in the south of the Yangtze River, and her style is beyond the reach of many other ladies.
But apart from Shen Jingjing getting angry at them, she never got any rewards, and they even had to suffer.
Therefore, how could they not serve Su Mo wholeheartedly?
Along the way, we almost took care of exploring the road, cooking, cleaning, etc. Liu Huo and others were replaced, so there was almost nothing they had to do.
The cook's surname is not fat, but he is very shrewd and clever. He is the leader of the dozen or so people.
The other cook shouted to several people to bring the food boxes in, quickly set the table, wiped it clean, and then placed the dishes, chopsticks, food boxes, etc.
"Miss, the young master hasn't come back yet, why don't you eat first? When the young master comes back, the kids will cook again." The other cook was very attentive.
Su Mo smiled and said: "No, thank you for your hard work. The young master will be back soon. Have you received Miss Yue's meal?"
The other cook said respectfully: "I will obey the young lady's instructions. Whatever the young lady and the young master eat, I will give it to Miss Yue. There will be absolutely no grievance at all."
Su Mo was very satisfied and said, "Okay, you guys should go down to eat too. Get some rest early and be vigilant. It's not very peaceful here."
The other cook took the people down.
It only took a moment before Huangfu Jin came back with Liu Huo.
As soon as he entered the door, Liuhuo gasped, "Miss, is there any water that's not bitter? Give me and the prince some water, I'm so salty."
Lan Ru chuckled, "Young master didn't even say anything, but you are in a hurry."
As he spoke, he poured two cups of tea with a smooth movement, and gave one cup to Huangfu Jin. The other cup was naturally accepted by Liuhuo with a smile.
Huangfu Jin only drank two cups, Liu Huo drank a whole pot, then held his stomach and burped.
Su Mo asked them to eat first.
Other chefs are really good at cooking and know how to use local ingredients. Because the land here is barren and the transportation is not very convenient, there are very few vegetables and meat. The majority is sea fish.
So on the dinner table, there were oily fish fillets, steamed fish, braised fish cubes, fish fillets...
Every dish is delicious, and there is always one that suits your taste.
The most amazing thing is that these people who don’t eat sea fish often don’t feel uncomfortable, especially Liu Huo and Lan Ru. They ate a lot and had an extra bowl of rice.
Lan Ruo glanced at them and said, "Eat less, we don't have that much rice for you to eat."
The rice and noodles here are extremely expensive, and the local people only eat one meal of rice and noodles a day.
If you can eat rice and noodles every day, you are a rich family.
Lan Ru sighed, "Miss, Master, why are the people here so poor? Looking at the past, it is a very desolate place. Doesn't the court want to find a way to change it?"
Liuhuo said with a look of deep understanding: "The land here is not good. You can't grow anything. There is a lot of saline-alkali land, so rice can't grow well."
Huangfu Jin finished eating and put down his bowl and chopsticks. Su Mo gave him a bowl of dried bamboo shoots and golden hook soup. After he finished drinking it, he said: "Originally, this place was where prisoners were exiled. How could the court think so much about serious matters? It’s enough of a headache.”
Lan Ru muttered, "We're not afraid of causing a civil unrest. There are more and more people here, and many of them are no longer prisoners. They are still being treated like prisoners. It's so unfair."
