Chapter 338 Appetizers

Author: Qingqingyinuo

After the beginning of winter, the weather became colder day by day. Due to Lin Shuran's insistence, Chen Jiayu's master and servant had to stay in the General's Mansion to recuperate. Although people kept coming from Prince Chun's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion, hoping to pick Chen Jiayu up, they were stopped every time.

The people in the General's Mansion made excuses to refuse.

Perhaps it was a change of environment, or perhaps Lin Shuran's daily enlightenment had an effect. Chen Jiayu was already able to get out of bed and walk. However, when she occasionally saw Lin Shuran's bulging belly, there would be inexplicable sadness in her eyes, so Lin Shuran left her alone.

Take a walk in the back garden to relieve your boredom.

The injuries of Grandma Cai and Qiu'er have also improved a lot. Qiu'er has been able to get up and take care of Chen Jiayu in the past two days.

"Sister Chunxi, I don't have to bother you to deliver meals to my heir apparent every day from now on. I'm already recovered. Today I'll go to the kitchen with you to get meals!" Qiu'er's injuries on his young body healed quickly, and their master and servant

Living in the General's Mansion always felt like it was causing a lot of trouble to Lin Shuran, so after she recovered, she wanted to help with some things.

Chunxi was also a talkative. Knowing that Qiu'er didn't want to trouble anyone, she smiled and said, "Okay, you can come with me. If your concubine wants to eat, she can tell the cook in the kitchen. They all

It can be done!”

"Thank you, sister Chunxi!" Qiu'er smiled and went to the kitchen with Chunxi to get food.

When they arrived in the kitchen, the cooks had almost finished lunch, and there was still a steamed fish that had to wait a little longer, so Chunxi and Qiuer put the prepared meals into a food box that could keep it warm.

"The food in the General's Mansion is so delicious. Grandma said I've gained a lot of weight in the past few days!" Qiu'er took a deep breath and said with a smile as she smelled the fragrant smell in the kitchen, but then her face turned melancholy.

When I got up, I thought that although Chen Jiayu's health had improved a lot in the past few days, she still didn't have much appetite for food.

Seeing that her mood suddenly became depressed, Chunxi asked doubtfully: "Sister Qiu'er, what's wrong? Is there something in today's meal that your noble concubine doesn't like?"

Qiu'er took one look at the delicious food and quickly shook her head. She smiled bitterly and replied: "The food in the General's Mansion is very delicious, but my heir apparent doesn't have much appetite, so she just drinks some soup and porridge. I don't know how this kitchen

Are there any pickles in it? My princess’s favorite food was pickles when she was very happy before. When she was in the palace, she always used them as appetizers for the princess!”

"Appetizers?" Chunxi quickly looked at Fat Aunt aside, and then asked, "Fat Aunt, are there any pickles in the kitchen?"

The fat aunt hurriedly shook her head and said: "Miss Chunxi, we don't have these pickles. If you want to eat them, I'll have someone go out and buy some for you. But you can't let your wife eat these pickles. I heard from the old people that eating too many pickles is bad for pregnant women."

It’s not good, especially those pickles that have been pickled for a long time, which are not good for the baby in the belly!”

"It's not that I want to eat, nor that Madam wants to eat, but I want to give some to the Crown Princess as an appetizer!" Chunxi first explained to the fat aunt, and then turned to Qiu'er and said, "Sister Qiu'er, this pickle sounds good to me.

It doesn’t seem to be good for your health. The Crown Princess is recuperating, so why not let Fat Aunt and the others make a bowl of sour meatball soup for the Crown Princess? My lady said that sour and spicy things are the best for appetizing!"

Qiu'er was shocked by what the fat aunt said just now. She looked at the fat aunt with some surprise and asked: "Are pickles really bad for pregnant women?"

The fat aunt nodded and replied: "I heard it's not very good, but it doesn't matter if you eat some. Women from poor families have no other food to eat when they are pregnant, so they all eat some pickles, but it also depends on what they are used for."

It is pickled with salt. How long it takes to pickle depends on what kind of food it is pickled. Pregnant women have the most meticulous requirements for food, but they cannot be careless."

When Qiu'er heard what the fat aunt said, her face changed drastically. She seemed to have noticed something. She left Chunxi and others and rushed out. Chunxi and the fat aunt were a little confused. They didn't understand what was happening to Qiu'er.

Qiu'er ran directly back to the room where Aunt Cai was. Aunt Cai was a little older and her recovery was a little slow. She was still lying on the bed to recuperate. Seeing Qiu'er push open the room and come in panting, she thought it was...

Chen Jiayu had a problem and asked what was going on.

Qiu'er told Aunt Cai what she had just heard from the fat aunt in the back kitchen, and said: "Auntie, the most common thing that the princess eats after she is pregnant is pickles. The people in the back kitchen of the Prince's Palace only say that pickles are

They were specially found for the Crown Princess and made into spicy, sour, salty and sweet flavors. The Crown Princess eats them for three meals a day. Do you think the Crown Princess’s children don’t have these pickles because of them?”

Aunt Cai's face was stunned. She recalled that Chen Jiayu had a bad appetite at that time, so the old prince asked the chef to find a way to make something delicious for Chen Jiayu. I don't know which woman came up with it, saying that she wanted to eat some appetizing snacks.

Pickles can make pregnant women eat more. When they brought a small plate of pickled wild vegetables, Chen Jiayu felt less happy and ate more. From then on, she would serve a small plate of pickled wild vegetables in the kitchen after every meal.

She and Qiu'er also tasted the pickled wild vegetables, which were crisp, refreshing and delicious.

"Girl, don't think of the rain when you see the wind. Don't talk nonsense in front of the Crown Princess. The Princess is already very sad when the child is gone." Aunt Cai didn't want Chen Jiayu to think about it any more.

But Qiu'er couldn't help but said: "Mommy, I think there is something wrong with the pickles in the palace!"

"Is there a problem? What problem?!" At this moment, Chen Jiayu walked in with a cold face. Aunt Cai and Qiu'er were both stunned when they saw her appearance, and Lin Shuran also followed Chen Jiayu with the same puzzled expression.

Look at Qiu'er.

Qiu'er was startled and quickly saluted Chen Jiayu and Lin Shuran, with a worried look on her face.

Lin Shuran also didn't expect that when she accompanied Chen Jiayu to visit Aunt Cai, she would hear a conversation between Qiu'er and Aunt Cai. She knew that pickles were not good for pregnant women, but eating less would not be a big problem.

"Qiu'er, what's the problem?" Chen Jiayu and Lin Shuran walked into the room and sat down. Chen Jiayu tried hard to stay calm, but she already had bold speculations in her heart, which made a storm begin to accumulate in her eyes.

Qiu'er dared to hide it, so she told Chen Jiayu, Lin Shuran and others that when she went into the palace's kitchen before, she found a woman coming back with a jar of pickles, saying that it was an appetizer she had just found for the princess.

As for side dishes, a little maid who just bought a house saw the pickles in the jar and said that they were very similar to the five-element grass by the river in her hometown. She was severely reprimanded by the old lady. The second time

Tian Qiu'er has never seen the little maid again. Looking back now, the mother-in-law's behavior at that time was a bit too extreme, as if she had a guilty conscience.
