Chapter 498 My mother's cooking is delicious
Shen Qi glared at his grandson and said, "You still have the nerve to laugh? Get out if you keep laughing."
When Shen Hui heard that he had to get out, he immediately found a seat and sat down, saying seriously, "I won't laugh anymore. I want to eat."
What a joke! He had been busy all morning just waiting for this bite of food. If he was kicked out by grandpa, he would be at a great loss.
Shen Ruolan looked around the dining room but didn't see her two children. When she was about to go out to look for them, she heard her daughter shout, "Mom, we have guests."
Shen Ruolan heard her daughter's voice. She came out of the dining room and asked her daughter, "An He, who's coming..."
Suddenly, Shen Ruolan stopped talking after seeing who was coming. She quickly came back to her senses and prepared to greet the person. She saw the person raised his hand and said, "I just passed by here and saw the two children were so cute. I couldn't help but come in with them. I hope I didn't disturb you."
Shen Ruolan saw that the other party did not want to reveal his identity. She hesitated for a moment and said to him politely, "Thank you, old man. It is our blessing that you can condescend to come to our humble home."
That’s right, the person who came was the current emperor. Shen Ruolan didn’t know the purpose of his visit, but no matter what his purpose was, she would just deal with it.
If it really doesn't work, just throw the mess to Jiang Dichen. After all, they are father and son, and even if they are mad at each other, it won't be a big problem.
On the contrary, it’s different for her. If she’s not careful, she may lose her life.
Shen Anhe looked at her mother and said with a smile: "Mom, Grandpa said that he is hungry and wants to come to our house for dinner."
I don’t know if it’s because of the blood relationship or because the emperor is good at coaxing, but although the two children saw the emperor for the first time, they were very friendly with him.
Especially Shen Zeyi, who was usually taciturn, also let the emperor hold his little hand and looked at his mother expectantly, hoping that she could ask this grandfather to stay for dinner.
Shen Ruolan listened to her daughter's words, then looked at her son who was full of expectation. She hesitated for a moment, then looked at the emperor and said, "If you don't mind the simple food in my humble abode, please come in and have lunch with us."
The emperor said: "I don't mind, I don't mind."
After saying this, he smiled and led the two children into the dining room.
In the dining room, Shen Qi couldn't help but frown when he saw the emperor coming in. However, due to the other party's status, he still wanted to stand up and salute the other party. Unexpectedly, the emperor quickly stopped him and said, "I came here today just to ask for a home-cooked meal. Do you mind?"
The emperor's meaning was very clear. He came here to eat today, so the rules were waived.
Of course, he was not begging for food today, he was really here to find Shen Qi because his health has been getting worse over the past two years.
So he wanted to find Shen Qi to take a look, but this old man had a very strange temper. He had sent people to invite him no less than ten times, but not once did he agree.
He had some free time today, so he found it himself.
Ding Xiaofan didn't know the emperor, he just felt that he was very majestic and people dared not look him directly at him.
Shen Hui had never seen the Emperor of Bei Ming, so now, apart from knowing that the old man in front of him was not simple, he did not know his identity. After hearing what he said, he raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, saying indifferently: "I don't mind, but old man, you came later, so you are not allowed to snatch food from us."
Today, Sister Lan cooked one dish by herself, and the rest were made by the chef in the kitchen, so he didn’t like others to snatch his food from him.
Shen Qi glared at his grandson and said to the emperor, "If you don't mind, please sit down with us."
After Shen Qi finished speaking, he paused and continued: "Young people are greedy, please don't mind."
The emperor nodded to Shen Qi and said, "No problem, no problem."
After saying this, he took the two children by the hand and walked to an empty seat and sat down.
Shen Anhe enthusiastically took the chopsticks and handed them to his grandfather, saying, "Grandpa, here are the chopsticks for you."
The emperor took the chopsticks and said to his granddaughter in a good mood: "Thank you, An He."
As soon as the emperor finished speaking, Shen Zeyi came over with a cup of hot tea and said, "Grandpa, have some tea."
When the emperor saw this, he quickly took the teacup and said, "Hey, Zeyi is really good."
Shen Ruolan looked at the grandfather and grandchildren at the dinner table. She sighed inwardly, walked to her seat and sat down, then asked everyone to start eating.
Shen Hui couldn't wait any longer. Seeing that everyone was seated, he picked up a piece of fish with chopsticks and ate it with great enjoyment, saying, "Well, to eat fish, it has to come from Sister Lan's hands. The taste is so fragrant and unforgettable."
The emperor saw Shen Hui eating with relish. He picked up his chopsticks and was about to pick up some food when he heard Eunuch Li behind him shout, "Master..."
Eunuch Li felt anxious when he saw the emperor wanting to eat, but since the emperor was visiting as a guest, it was not convenient for him to test the poison.
When the emperor heard Eunuch Li calling him, he paused for a moment, gave him a look to calm him down, and then picked up the food and started eating.
Shen Ruolan and Shen Qi naturally knew what Eunuch Li meant by calling out, but they both pretended to be stupid, said nothing, and just ate their meal.
Just when everyone was enjoying the meal, the emperor suddenly made a hissing sound and asked, "What kind of dish is this? Why does it taste so strange?"
Eunuch Li, who was standing behind the emperor, heard what the emperor said and said nervously, "Master, you are not used to it. Let's not eat it for now."
Shen Zeyi, who was standing by, explained to his grandfather: "Grandpa, this is spicy boiled fish. It's very fragrant. You'll like it if you eat a few more pieces."
"Spicy boiled fish? It sounds pretty good." After the emperor finished speaking, he listened to his grandson and ate a few more bites. It must be said that the fish meat was tender and fragrant. Except for the fact that his mouth could not bear it, the fish meat was really delicious.
While eating, he asked Shen Ruolan, "Girl, what do you use to cook this fish? Why does it taste like this that I have never tasted before?"
After hearing the emperor's question, Shen Ruolan couldn't help but say to herself, "This is something unique to my Fuzhai. It's strange that you can eat it."
However, no matter what she was thinking, she didn't show it on her face. She finished the food in her mouth and then replied to him, "This is made with chili peppers, peppercorns, and some seasonings that I made myself."
After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she didn't even offer to share some with him, and continued to eat her meal with her head down.
"Did you mix the seasoning yourself?" The emperor paused for a moment and continued, "Why..."
The emperor suddenly stopped talking here. He wanted to ask why the people in his palace didn't know how to make seasonings, but when he saw that the occasion was not right, he immediately stopped what he was going to say.
Shen Anhe ate the delicious fish fillet that his mother had picked up, and said to the emperor with a smile: "Grandpa, I was right, wasn't I? The food my mother cooked is delicious."
