After returning to the capital, the eldest daughter saved her entire clan with her medical skills.

Chapter 224 The Aroma of Food

He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he seemed to smell a very strong aroma, which made his stomach rumble and made him even more restless.

"I'll take you."

Xue Li couldn't resist going to the kitchen to take a look.

There was no rule of keeping a gentleman away from the kitchen in the general's mansion, let alone a child. He could go wherever he wanted, and no one would stop him.

Princess Qingyue was chatting with Fang Lingruo and Aseri when she heard her younger brother's words and immediately stood up, "I want to go too."

"Princess, the kitchen is crowded and chaotic, please don't get your clothes dirty."

Princess Lingjun was somewhat worried. Princess Qingyue was, after all, a girl, and shouldn't be raised like a boy.

"It's alright. I can just go back to the manor and change into new clothes. I've always heard Jun'er say that Miss Xue is an excellent cook. I've come here today because of her reputation, and I have a good chance to see Miss Xue cook in person. I might even be able to learn a few dishes from her."

Princess Qingyue is straightforward, lively, and cheerful, but her interests are quite different from those of other young ladies from noble families. She dislikes playing the zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and she doesn't care for cosmetics, but she has a particular fondness for gourmet food.

He knows exactly what the signature dishes are at every restaurant in Beijing.

If Yingkelou Restaurant hadn't been so packed that she couldn't get a table, she would have gone to try it long ago.

"Since the princess insists, you two can accompany her to the kitchen. Be careful."

Princess Lingjun spoke to her two daughters-in-law.

"Yes, mother."

“Even if Mother hadn’t said so, I would have gone to see her anyway. It’s rare for my younger sister to cook, so I’d like to learn a few dishes from her so I can help out in the future and my younger sister won’t have to work so hard.”

Asri and Princess Qingyue got along very well, and she had a particular fondness for food.

She had long wanted to learn cooking from her sister-in-law, but her sister-in-law had been very busy since returning to the mansion, making it difficult to find a suitable opportunity.

She happened to have some free time today, and if she hadn't been chatting with our distinguished guests, she would have already gone to the kitchen to watch the younger sister cook.

"You're so sweet-talking. Go if you want, but be careful of the slippery road. Your little sister should be almost done by now."

Princess Lingjun looked at her second daughter-in-law with doting eyes. Princess Qingyue's personality was quite similar to hers, no wonder they got along so well.

I looked up at the hourglass on the table. It was already noon. Ruan Ruan had been busy since early morning. I wondered how she had been busy for so long.

Xu Zijun couldn't wait any longer, so she grabbed Xue Li and Gu Mingcheng and ran out.

"Sister Xue, Sister Xue, I've come to see you."

Xue Ruanruan ladled the freshly made seafood and mushroom soup into a bowl when she heard a boy's loud shouts coming from outside.

Looking up at the window, I saw several little ones running wildly toward the kitchen.

"Slow down, be careful, the ground is slippery!"

Xue Ruanruan was so scared her heart almost jumped out of her chest. These little guys were really daring, running so fast in the blizzard. What if they fell?

"Sister Xue, I miss you."

Xu Zijun's mouth was as sweet as honey; she could make anyone smile with just a few words.

Princess Qingyue, who was following closely behind, was unhappy. How come she hadn't noticed that her younger brother was so good at flattery? How come he had never said such nice things to her? It was truly enviable.

"Sister Xue, did you make all of this?!"

As soon as Xu Zijun stepped into the kitchen, she was shocked by the dishes that filled the entire house.

"The aroma of the food is so strong."

To maintain their image, Princess Qingyue, Fang Lingruo, and Aseli walked slowly behind them. As they stepped into the backyard, they smelled a rich fragrance.
