Chapter 88: Dishes I've Never Seen Before

After Liu Yanyan put down the bowl, she looked at Yuzhu, who was drinking happily from the tea bowl, and couldn't help but ask, "Don't you think it tastes astringent?"

Yuzhu smiled and said, "Miss, it's great to have tea in a small restaurant like this. The bitter taste will fade after a few times. I'll add some sugar for you to drink."

Liu Yanyan waved her hand and said, "No, I don't want to drink it. No need to add sugar." She really couldn't accept this kind of tea. She didn't know what it would taste like with sugar.

Soon, the proprietress brought up a clay pot as big as a copper pot. Liu Yanyan almost couldn't close her mouth when she saw it. She asked uncertainly, "Is this our dish today? What is it?"

The lady boss smiled and said, "This is stewed vermicelli noodles. There is another dish that will be served soon."

Yuzhu took the ceramic bowl next to her, washed it with tea, put vermicelli and meat slices in it for the young lady and said, "Young lady, please try it. This dish is delicious. You are a delicate eater and have never eaten anything like this before!"

After Liu Yanyan took it, Yuzhu carefully wiped the bamboo chopsticks with a handkerchief before handing the chopsticks to the young lady with both hands, "Young lady, try it quickly."

Liu Yanyan prepared herself mentally several times before taking the chopsticks, picking up a piece of vermicelli and putting it in her mouth. It tasted good, not as weird as she had imagined, so she felt relieved. “Yuzhu, Yuzhen, you guys try it too, it’s delicious.”

Yuzhu, Yuzhen shook her head and said, "Miss, please finish eating before we eat. How can a maid eat with a young lady? It's not in accordance with the rules. Please eat first."

Liu Yanyan looked at the two people's restrained appearance and did not refuse. She used the chopsticks for a few times and waved her hand. Yuzhu moved the vegetable bowl away swiftly.

The lady boss brought over a plate of stir-fried pickled cabbage that was bigger than her face. "Be careful of the heat. Try this authentic pickled cabbage. It's the best in this area."

Liu Yanyan smiled and nodded. For the first time, she used chopsticks to pick up a piece of pickled cabbage and put it in her mouth. The sour and spicy taste rushed straight to her head.

Yuzhu hurriedly took the handkerchief, put it to the lady's lips and said, "Miss, this smell is strong, please don't hurt your body."

Liu Yanyan shook her head, swallowed it, held the ceramic bowl with both hands, took a big sip of tea, and then said, "Nothing, nothing, thank you, Madam Boss, it tastes good, but I just can't accept it for the time being."

The proprietress watched the noble man recover before she left with peace of mind. Fortunately, nothing happened, otherwise several lives in her family would not be enough to compensate. After coming to the counter, she kept observing carefully, fearing that something might happen to the noble man.

When Yuzhu saw the proprietress leaving, she glared at her fiercely and was about to leave with the help of the young lady. Liu Yanyan waved her hand and said, "You two can try it. It tastes okay, but I'm not used to it at the moment."

Yuzhu shook her head and said, "Miss, no thanks." Then she turned to the proprietress and said, "Madam, bring a large lunch box over so we can take it home to eat."

Liu Yanyan nodded then. There were people coming and going outside. If the boss lady couldn't do business just because of her different taste, how would their family survive in the future?

The proprietress came over with a food box, smiling, put the two dishes in it and said, "I'm sorry, young lady, I made you feel wronged. I, I, didn't think about your taste."

Liu Yanyan chuckled, "It's okay, I didn't explain it clearly. I want to try some new dishes. How much is one of them?"

The lady boss shook her head and said, "It's free, it's free."

Liu Yanyan looked at Yuzhu helplessly. Yuzhu took out a hundred coins from her pocket and put them on the table, saying, "Don't be afraid. Our young lady is a very nice person. She's not the kind of bully who eats for free."

Yuzhen took the food box and stood beside it respectfully.

Liu Yanyan casually placed her hand on Yuzhu's and walked out. The proprietress didn't breathe a sigh of relief until they left.

Liu Yanyan looked at the small restaurant behind and couldn't help but sigh.

Yuzhu said, "Miss, what's wrong with you? Why are you sighing?"

Liu Yanyan smiled and said, "Nothing, I just feel that the world is difficult. Let's go back to the farm."

Yuzhu helped the young lady onto the carriage. Yuzhen handed the food box to the guard behind and climbed onto the carriage as well.

The carriage swayed all the way back to Hongmei Manor.

When Butler Liu saw the young lady coming back home, he smiled happily, "Young lady, you are back. The master was waiting for you. He asked me to come and see you. Let's go over for dinner."

Liu Yanyan nodded, put her hand on Yuzhu's hand, stepped on the horse stool and got off the carriage. "Let's go. I'm hungry."

When Liu Yanyan came to the yard, Duke Liu saw her in a coarse linen dress. He was stunned at first, and a look of heartache flashed across his eyes. He smiled and said, "Nannan, what did you do today? You are wearing such a chic outfit."

Liu Yanyan smiled and replied, "Dad, I took Yuzhu and Yuzhen to the West Market today to have a look around. I wanted to know the prices."

Duke Liu smiled and touched Nannan's head, sighing, "Nannan has really grown up and has her own ideas." Nannan just thinks too much. She has started preparing before the results are out yet. When his injury heals, he will take her out to relax.

Liu Yanyan smiled and said, "Nannan will never grow up in front of Daddy." After that, she held out her hand for Yuzhu. Yuzhen took a handkerchief and wiped her hands carefully. Then she picked up the jade chopsticks, picked up a piece of shark fin and put it into her mouth. She nodded and said, "Daddy, the food at home is still delicious."

Duke Liu smiled and said, "The chefs at home were all trained by your mother herself. They remember your taste perfectly. How can the chefs outside compare? No, why are you saying this? Did you eat outside?"

Liu Yanyan covered her lips with a handkerchief and wiped them, saying, "Well, we went into a small restaurant today. Dad, you don't know, the dishes are served in big basins, which are bigger than the copper basins used for washing faces." She gestured as she spoke.

Duke Liu smiled and said, "This is common. There are a lot of laborers over there and they eat a lot, so it's common to use basins to serve food. You just don't go out often." After saying this, his eyes were full of worry.

Liu Yanyan nodded and took the chicken from her father with a smile, "Mm, delicious."

Duke Liu saw Nannan eating happily, so he started eating too and ate one more bowl than usual.

Liu Yanyan finished a bowl of rice and drank a small bowl of soup. She couldn't eat anymore and rubbed her stomach secretly.

Duke Liu saw this and said with a smile, "Well, Daddy can't force you to eat. Go back and have a rest and change your clothes."

Liu Yanyan smiled and nodded, "Dad, Nannan will go back first, you should also go to bed early."

Duke Liu waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, Butler Liu is watching over me!"

Liu Yanyan then left and returned to her room. She raised her hand and asked Yuzhu and Yuzhen to take off their coarse cloth clothes.

Yuzhu took the clothes and said distressedly, "Miss, your neck and body are all red. I'll go get some scar removal cream."

Liu Yanyan touched her neck and found nothing. She went to the dressing table and saw that it was indeed a large red area. She sighed and said, "Okay, apply some medicine, it will heal sooner."
