Chapter 307 Silver Needle



Chapter 307 Silver Needle

Zheng Sisi lamented that the Third Prince had a long nose. Whenever she cooked something delicious, he could always smell it from next door, and then come to the mansion with four guards to eat.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Zheng Sisi started to stir-fry the lotus root tips. As there were no fresh peppers and she couldn't get them from the space, she just stir-fried them. She cut the lotus root tips into one centimeter long pieces, added oil and salt, a little chopped garlic, and sprinkled some chopped green onions. It was simple, but the fried lotus root tips were very fragrant.

Then she fried the lotus root tips cut into oblique slices in the same way, and gave the rest to Nanny Gui to fry. Several maids were busy setting the table for the guests.

Zheng Sisi washed her hands, tidied her clothes and went to the dining room.

Everyone was present in the dining room, and the Third Prince was talking to Madam Zheng, making her laugh. Zheng Sisi couldn't help but wonder, the Third Prince wasn't the type to coax people, what did he say to make her grandmother so happy.

Zheng Zhimin and Zheng Zhiyuan looked at the new dishes on the table, wondering if they had missed anything. How could they not know about the new dishes?

When they saw Zheng Sisi come in, several people greeted her with a smile.

Madam Zheng waved her hand and said, "Come and sit down, little girl Sisi. You must be exhausted after working all afternoon."

Zheng Sisi followed her instructions and sat down next to Madam Zheng, holding her hand and saying, "Grandma, I'm sorry, I don't have time to accompany you if you stay here. You won't blame me, will you?"

Madam Zheng said kindly, "Girl, grandma knows you are busy, so don't worry. Grandma is not idle either. She went to the fields in the back garden this afternoon. You scared grandma. I thought you said you would plant two vegetable plots for your own consumption, but you didn't expect that you would plant vegetables in the entire back garden. How can you eat all the vegetables in the future?"

Zheng Sisi smiled and said, "Don't worry, grandma. These vegetables are still insufficient. I have planted them in both farms. Once these vegetables are on the market, they will be in short supply."

Madam Zheng laughed: "That's good, that's good, as long as it's not wasted, it's fine."

Zheng Sisi said, "Grandma, the dishes are all here. Let's eat first. I made two new dishes today. Please try them and give me some comments!"

Madam Zheng said, "How can the dishes you cook be bad?"

Everyone else at the table nodded in agreement. Zheng Sisi felt embarrassed and kept saying, "Eat, eat, haha!"

After sending the maids and old women down to eat, Nanny Zhou insisted on serving by the side. Finally, Zheng Sisi said, "Nanny Zhou, are you disgusted by the fact that we don't serve grandma well enough?" Nanny Zhou reluctantly followed them away, and naturally Nanny Li and others entertained her.

After the meal started, everyone was conquered by the crispness of the lotus root tips and the salty, fragrant and soft texture of the lotus root cakes. Several young people praised it highly. Zheng Zhiyuan kept his head down and never raised it until he was full. Even Mrs. Zheng ate half a bowl of rice more than usual. She had bad teeth, so she ate a few more lotus root cakes.

After dinner, everyone moved to the flower hall to drink tea and sat relaxed on the chairs while waiting for the food to be digested. Everyone said they were full, and Zheng Sisi was speechless.

Zheng Sisi and her companions drank the health-preserving chrysanthemum tea, while the Third Prince and Zheng Zhiyuan brewed the top-notch silver needle tea that Zheng Sisi took out from the space. The tea leaves were neatly lined up and stood upright in the water, looking very beautiful.

Zheng Zhiyuan asked: "Cousin, what kind of tea is this? It looks so beautiful when soaked in water. The tea soup is clear, slightly yellow and has a delicate fragrance."

Zheng Zhimin ran over to take a look and exclaimed, "It's really beautiful, like needles stuck in the water, so beautiful."

The third prince also looked at his teacup, and indeed, as the two said, the tea leaves were as thin as needles.

Zheng Sisi said, "You are right. This tea is called Silver Needle. My master picked the tea leaves himself and roasted them. He left some for me. If you like it, you can bring some back to grandpa and let him have a taste too."

Zheng Zhiyuan nodded, and the Third Prince looked at her with burning eyes. Zheng Sisi knew that he was jealous, so she said, "Prepare one for the Third Prince later."

Hearing the accurate answer, the Third Prince was comforted. He picked up the teacup, sniffed it, and took a sip: "Delicious!"

Zheng Sisi rolled her eyes in her heart. How could it not taste good? This silver needle tea is a famous tea in modern times. Grandpa's tea is good. The gift box given by his students is several thousand yuan. The third prince is really cheap. He drinks grandpa's tea and still thinks about his granddaughter. How beautiful he is.
