Chapter 479

The Empress Dowager looked at Wen Xiao suspiciously. She really didn't understand what she was smoking crazy.

How could she do this thankless thing?

Doesn't she know that if she doesn't do well, she can even give her a bad name?

The Empress Dowager's eyes flashed and then nodded at the big maid in waiting at the door.

The maid of honor hurried out with Wen Xiao.

"The imperial concubine and empress are careful of their feet. The kitchen is where people stay. It's inevitable that it's not clean enough. Please make atonement for her," the palace maid said very carefully. "If necessary, the slaves in the kitchen will listen to her orders."

"Never mind," Wen Xiao waved his hand casually, "don't bother the palace. Stay away."

The palace maid retreated in fear.

In the house, the Empress Dowager sent Su ronghua away, and a thoughtful color crossed her well maintained face.

"What do you mean, concubine Wen?" after a while, the Empress Dowager said, "is it because she wants to poison the mourning family?"

"This..." the mammy on one side pulled a corner of her mouth, "the imperial concubine will not do this. The Empress Dowager can rest assured."

"What does she want? She just wants to come and mourn for her family?" the Empress Dowager couldn't understand. "Although she is stupid, she's not so stupid."

"According to the old slave, does Princess Wen want to make friends with the Empress Dowager?" the mammy thought, "or does she just want to show her cooking skills?"

"Make friends?" the Empress Dowager sneered. "With her temper, if she doesn't take the initiative to provoke the mourners, how can she take the initiative to make friends?"

"Just wait and see," murmured the Empress Dowager. "The child is straight hearted, not as resourceful as her father..."

When mammy heard the Empress Dowager's words, she closed her mouth wisely and stood aside quietly.

The queen mother leaned on her couch and was sleepy.

For a long time, a burst of aroma suddenly came to her nostrils. The Empress Dowager woke up instantly and stared at the maid at the door without blinking.

"Empress mother, have a try. Can this fried ball suit your taste?" Wen Xiaoqing walked into the door and obviously had to freshen up again. "By the way, my concubine borrowed your side hall to freshen up. Empress mother, don't be surprised."

"If the imperial concubine can make dishes that the AI family praises, don't say it's a side hall. Even if she lives in the CI Ning palace, the AI family has no objection," the Empress Dowager scratched a mocking color on her properly maintained face, "did you make it yourself?"

"There's only one living person in the kitchen. It's not made by concubines. Is it still made by Su ronghua?" Wen Xiao smiled. "Even if you're eccentric, you can't be so biased."

The Empress Dowager ignored her and focused on the meatballs in front of her.

The Empress Dowager grew up in the north. She likes eating like this most. But Kyoto is in the south. She can't see such greasy food all year round. The Empress Dowager missed it very much because she didn't eat for a long time. She leaked her mouth during her chat with Su ronghua, which led to the scene of Su ronghua delivering vegetables today.

But the Empress Dowager knew that the dish was not made by Su ronghua at all.

She has asked many people to make that meatball, but it is always not to her taste, and one of them is chef Xie, who is famous all over the country.

Chef Xie is now in the palace, just doing chores in the imperial dining room.

It was difficult for Su ronghua to find a good hand in making meatballs in the corners of the imperial dining room in order to please himself.

But I love this dish so much that I can't tell the difference?

The Empress Dowager looked at the steaming balls in front of her eyes and a complex color came into her eyes.
