The Miracle Doctor's Two-Faced Toddler Chapter 75 - The World's Best Chef

Chapter 75: The World’s Best Chef

Uncle’s legs were not good. Although he did not say it, Yu Wan knew that every step Uncle took was like a thorn in his bones. In order to finish making these snacks, Uncle worked alone in the kitchen for four hours. Aunt could not help much and wanted to wake Yu Feng and Yu Wan up, but Uncle did not let her.

When Yu Wan went to the old residence early in the morning, her uncle had already rested. His entire face was pale then.

However, his painstaking efforts had been cruelly ruined.

Yu Song couldn’t stand it anymore and rushed forward. “Aren’t you being unreasonable?!”

The maidservant was frightened by his sudden action, but she quickly calmed down and retorted coquettishly, “Who’s being unreasonable? You were the one who b.u.mped into me first!”

“Did I b.u.mp into you on purpose? I didn’t mean it! But you did it on purpose! Besides, there were so many people at the door. Why didn’t I b.u.mp into anyone but you? Even if I didn’t have eyes, didn’t you have them?! Didn’t you see me coming? Don’t you know how to avoid me?!”

Initially, Yu Song felt that he was in the wrong for b.u.mping into the young lady. Therefore, he did not object at all when Yu Wan wanted to compensate her. However, this woman was too much. It was fine if she did not accept their compensation, but she even smacked the snacks that his father had made all morning to vent her anger!

“You… you…” The maidservant was so angry that she was speechless for a moment.

Yu Wan did not say a word. She only silently squatted down and picked up the snacks on the ground one by one.

Yu Feng looked at Yu Wan with a complicated expression and pulled the furious Yu Song back.

Yu Wan was picking them up when she reached the maidservant’s feet.

The maidservant swept her gaze coldly and kicked the crab roe pastry by her feet far away.

Yu Wan’s hand froze in midair.

“So unlucky!” The maidservant stomped her feet and led the servant carrying the congratulatory gifts into the Wei Manor.

The maidservant’s name was Taozhi, and she was seventeen this year. She was Mrs. Yan’s first-cla.s.s maidservant and was quite popular in the Yan Manor. If it weren’t for Yan Xie’s accident, Mrs. Yan would have wanted to make her Yan Xie’s concubine.

She was dressed even more beautifully than the young miss of an ordinary official’s family. She was wearing a smooth silk dress and jewelry that was inlaid with gold and jade. She was wearing a pair of large pink pearl embroidered shoes.

However, what Taozhi did not notice was that the big pearl on her left shoe had disappeared.

Yu Wan stood up and weighed the bead in her hand.

“You’re from the Yan Manor! A rare guest! Miss Taozhi, this way please!”

This was the last time she was called Miss Taozhi. Yu Wan sighed thoughtfully.

Taozhi lifted her skirt proudly, but just as she was about to cross the threshold, her feet slipped—

“Ouch, my hand—”

Taozhi’s hand broke. It was the hand that knocked over the dessert.

… .

Yu Wan and the others entered the Wei Manor. They were quite lucky this time and were a.s.signed a separate kitchen. Of course, it was also possible that the smell of the stinky tofu was too strong and Master Xiao Wu was worried that it would affect the other chefs.

Yu Wan was very satisfied with this arrangement.

Master Xiao Wu was a rough person and was not as meticulous as Miss Bai. They did not have a relations.h.i.+p like Miss Bai. After the pageboy brought them to the place, he did not care about them anymore.

“There’s nothing to eat…” Yu Song muttered. He ate a meal before working the last time he worked in the Bai Manor.

Yu Feng said in a low voice, “Didn’t you eat on the carriage? Are you not full?”

“I’m full but…” Yu Song curled his lips.” I just want to see what the officials eat. ”

The Bai family was a merchant, but Old Mrs. Wei was conferred a t.i.tle. Their food must be much better than Miss Bai’s family.

… .

The news of the Yan Manor’s maidservant breaking her arm at the door quickly reached Old Mrs. Wei’s ears.

“… She fell herself. No one touched her then.”

“… The pearl on her shoe fell off. She slipped because she stepped on the pearl.”

The shoes were hers, and so were the pearls. There was no one else to blame.

But in the end, it happened in the Wei Manor, so Old Mrs. Wei hired a doctor for her. After the doctor treated her, Old Mrs. Wei sent Nanny Song, who was beside her, to personally send Taozhi back to her mansion.

About an hour later, Nanny Song returned.

Nanny Song said, “Madam, Miss Yan is here.”

Old Mrs. Wei frowned. “Is she here to denounce us?”

Nanny Song shook her head and said, “That’s not it. Miss Yan said that the maidservant was insensible and smashed the snacks made by Madam Du. She came to apologize.”

“This child…” Old Mrs. Wei twisted the prayer beads in her hand.

Nanny Song continued, “She even brought Madam Du over and said that if Madam doesn’t mind, she can ask Madam Du to personally make a few delicious dishes for you.”

Who would dislike Madam Du’s dishes? It was said that even the Emperor wanted to invite her to the palace to be a royal chef, but she rejected him. It was Old Mrs. Wei’s honor to have Madam Du cook for her.

However, Old Mrs. Wei also knew that Yan Xie had captured the little masters of the Young Master Mansion and thrown them into jail. She wasn’t sure if Shangguan Yan was willing to see Yan Ruyu.

Just as she was about to send them away, she heard Shangguan Yan say indifferently, “Bring her in.”

Yan Ruyu heaved a long sigh of relief the moment she learned that she had been invited into the Wei Manor.

Her mother was right. The Princess Consort owed Old Mrs. Wei a favor. The Princess Consort would give Old Mrs. Wei face no matter what.

Madam Du was also invited into a separate kitchen, but it was much better than the Yu Family’s. She used Old Mrs. Wei’s exclusive small kitchen.

Before coming, Yan Ruyu had already asked around. Old Mrs. Wei was old, had a light diet, and didn’t like meat. This was exactly what she wanted because Madam Du was best at vegetarian food.

Madam Du made osmanthus glutinous rice lotus root, imitation crab, and a main dish.

Osmanthus glutinous rice lotus root was made by stuffing glutinous rice into the holes of the lotus root and boiling it with brown sugar, rock sugar, red dates, and fresh osmanthus.

In this season, osmanthus was rare. Madam Du used the Four Seasons Osmanthus. The taste of the Four Seasons Osmanthus was not as good as the August Osmanthus. Not only was the fragrance light, but it was also easy to leave a bitter taste if one was not careful. However, Madam Du had handled it very well. It was almost the same as the August Osmanthus. It was soft, fragrant, and sweet, but it did not cover the fragrance of the lotus root.

This was the sweetest osmanthus glutinous rice lotus root that Old Mrs. Wei had ever eaten.

The imitation crab was actually a stir-fried egg. The ingredients were only a piece of ginger, and there was not even any spring onion. However, Madam Du relied on her superb culinary skills to stir-fry the taste of the crab roe and crab meat.

To be able to make the simplest ingredients taste the most rich was true ability.

“As expected of Madam Du.” Old Mrs. Wei praised.

All the women were conquered by Madam Du’s culinary skills. Even the usually picky Shangguan Yan could not find any flaws.

No one in the world could surpa.s.s Madam Du.
