141 Chapter 141 Taste-Testing

“Mrs. Li, please get up. As I’ve said before, anything is possible as long as you guys do your best.” Zhou Ying said as she helped her up.

“Mistress, you are too benevolent. This servant will definitely do a good job.” Chun Niang immediately replied.

She wasn’t young anymore, and she wasn’t a free person. The possibility of getting married was almost zero, so it was better to show her loyalty early so that she could have a place to retire.

“Yes, yes, we will definitely do a good job.” Everyone immediately echoed.

At the same time, their faces were filled with joy and hope.

“I believe that, so hurry up and get back to work. I’m still waiting to enjoy a delicious meal.” Zhou Ying reassured them, took Li Yue back to the courtyard, and taught him a classic poem.

She didn’t expect the boy’s brain to be this smart, being able to remember and recite it to her after being taught three times. Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m

However, she only taught him a little. After teaching him five sentences of the poem, she let him go to the side to play.

After tasting one, she commented, “It’s sweet and delicious, with a hint of milk. Did you put milk in it? No, it’s cream, isn’t it?”

“Mistress sure has sensitive tastebuds. I did put in some cream.” Chun Niang affirmed.

“Yup, in the future, make it smaller, the kind that can be eaten in two bites. Also, research five types of desserts and make a dessert platter.

“Oh right, there are also all kinds of bean and chestnut cakes. You can make them into a plater too.” Zhou Ying suggested and gave her the recipe for scallion pancakes and left the rest to her.

When Zhao Cheng’s soup was served, it was already noon. Gu Chengrui had just returned, so everyone took half a bowl and tried it.

After Gu Chengrui finished drinking, he nodded and said, “Babe, this soup is amazing. It’s refreshing, fragrant, and without any medicinal smell. It’s very delicious.”

“If you like it, we can have one from time to time in the future.”

“Then I’ll be waiting.”

After the meal, Zhou Ying went to Hongyun Restaurant and bought a bag of lamb bones from Manager Liu.

However, Manager Liu didn’t want the money, so Zhou Ying said, “Uncle Liu, I’m thinking of buying all the lamb bones here in the future. You can’t keep giving them to me for free.

“However, leave a little more meat on the top. These bones are stripped too clean.”
