Translator: 549690339
When a person shows off only a limited amount of attention-grabbing skills, they become easy prey to avarice.
Yet when someone brings forth an abundant supply of powerful tools and talents, that greed is held in check as those around choose to coexist in a friendly manner.
They might even admire and honor them.
Ingenuity and talent were coveted like precious assets in later generations.
Those with true skill were sought after relentlessly.
The same goes for culinary prowess.
When she’d only revealed two of her recipes that had already been sold, Yang Ye expressed the intent of bringing her back to Wang Residence to serve as a kitchen maid.
His attitude then was carefree and arrogant.
Now, upon witnessing her uniqueness and high-skilled craftsmanship, Yang Ye’s demeanor changed.
He started to regard her with respect.
When he took a seat, so could she.
Yang Ye didn’t care when she stood up to Bai Zhi’s arrogance today.
It was clear, she had won her gamble.
Her heart, that had been in her throat, could now safely descend.
With this in mind, she spoke up, “1 dare not defy Your Highness’s command. It’s just the red oil…”
“What about it?” Upon seeing her pause, Yang Ye hurriedly questioned.
“The red oil isn’t from the cornelian cherries. It’s from a seasoning 1 discovered in the mountains. I only found a handful of plants, and I’ve already used it all up,” a look of difficulty appeared on Xiaomai’s face.
If there were chili peppers dangling around here, her significance and status could have been elevated a little further.
“You discovered it in the mountains?” Yang Ye looked quite surprised.
“Yes.” Xiaomai said, her face patiently maintaining a lie, as she described how she’d found the chili peppers.
Tong Sanlang couldn’t help curling his lip.
However, Xiaomai’s calm and collected demeanor while spinning a lie to a dignitary was rather charming.
“I see.” Yang Ye muttered, followed by a sigh of regret.
Such a good thing and he would have to wait several months to see it again?
Chili peppers, so purely piquant without a trace of bitterness, such a culinary treasure.
If what Xiaomai said was true, chili peppers would soon replace cornelian cherries and become even more beloved among people.
With a few sighs in his heart, he asked again, “What about the cake?”
“I can make another one right now,” Xiaomai replied.
“Later, let’s have lunch first,” Yang Ye waved his hand dismissively. There were several other matters he wanted to discuss with Xiaomai.
For instance, the sweet and sour pork with its fresh cooking method and exceptional taste.
And the refreshingly unique texture hiding beneath the braised pork.
Even after polishing off a dozen pieces of the greasy pork, he surprisingly yearned for another large platter. Incredible!
Not just the braised pork, the pickled cabbage, fish, and pig’s feet soup evoked similar feelings.
If it was just a single dish, this could be considered a fluke.
However, since it was the case for multiple dishes, it surely warranted further investigation.
At this thought, his gaze landed on Xiaomai.
He came to Bailu Town for two reasons. One was to pay a visit to the dean of Gu Academy, the other was to meet the girl who invented the cold jelly tofu delicacy.
And the reality proved to him that he didn’t make this trip in vain.
In this remote and poor mountain town, he had discovered a bright and dazzling sparkle.
He had stumbled upon a stunning gem.
Tong Sanlang sat quietly in a corner, observing Yang Ye’s shifting demeanor without fuss.
His handsome face maintained a composed expression.
No ripple of emotions danced in his eyes.
Xiaomai deserved the best.
At present, Yang Ye seemed to be the best choice.
Right now, Yang Ye might not be considering anything romantic, but given Xiaomai’s charm, he’d likely be thinking along those lines soon.
When compared to him, who was insidiously plotting a rebellion, any sensible person would know how to choose..
