I just want to live a good life

Chapter 417 1 bowls of La8 porridge

"really?"

Mu Yunting asked Ye Yin.

"No doubt. I have personally checked it."

"Does Concubine Xia know?"

"I have not informed Concubine Xia, but I don't know whether Ye Xiaobai beside her has informed Concubine Xia."

"Anyway, don't tell Concubine Xia about this for now. I don't want her to get involved."

"Yes." Ye Yin thought for a moment and continued, "Your Highness, are you not going to tell Concubine Xia about Miss Xun's matter?"

"It's not the time yet."

"But if Concubine Xia continues to misunderstand you..."

Mu Yunting felt happy just thinking about someone being jealous. He hadn't enjoyed this feeling enough, so how could he easily tell her about Xun Zheng.

"Let her misunderstand for now. Once the truth comes out, the misunderstanding will be resolved."

I just don’t know whether Concubine Xia is willing to wait until that day. If she has given up on Your Highness before that, I’m afraid Your Highness will cry.

Ye Yin complained in his heart but didn't dare to say it out loud.

Time passed quickly and it was Laba Festival. There was no custom of drinking porridge on Laba Festival in Nanzhao Kingdom, but Su Nuan wanted to drink porridge, so she made a pot of Laba porridge early in the morning.

She distributed the porridge to several people in Duiyueju, and asked Chunliu and Meixiang to give a portion to Cai Ya and Xiaobai.

It was the first time that Cai Ya received food made by Concubine Xia herself. He was so happy that he didn't want to eat it. He told everyone that it was a reward from Concubine Xia. Within a cup of tea, all the servants in the Prince's Mansion knew that Concubine Xia had made porridge for him personally.

Then, somehow, this matter reached the ears of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sat in the Lanyue Pavilion, waiting anxiously for Concubine Xia to come and bring him the porridge she had cooked herself. He waited for the entire morning.

I didn't eat breakfast, and I couldn't eat lunch either. I was so angry that I felt full.

"Your Highness, please eat something. You have just recovered from your cold and need to eat more to nourish your body. You can't skip these two meals!"

Kang Dahong knelt in front of Mu Yunting and said earnestly.

Mu Yunting was already upset, and became even more upset after hearing what he said.

Even the cook knew that he needed to eat to nourish himself as he had just recovered from his illness, but his concubine would rather give the porridge to the servants than give it to him.

"Kang Dahong, I want to eat porridge."

"Eat porridge? Okay, okay, I will go and make porridge for you right away."

Kang Dahong trotted back to the kitchen.

After a while, several bowls of porridge were placed in front of Mu Yunting, including clear porridge, meat porridge, vegetable porridge, and the sweet porridge that His Highness loved the most.

Mu Yunting glanced at several bowls of porridge. They were all the porridge he usually ate, and they didn’t look tasty.

I don’t know what the porridge made by Concubine Xia tastes like. I really want to call Cai Ya to ask her.

But how could he, the crown prince, do such a thing?

Looking up and seeing Kang Dahong waiting expectantly, Mu Yunting immediately had an idea.

"It's the same thing over and over again, Kang Dahong, how have you improved?"

Kang Dahong was so frightened when he heard this that he knelt on the ground. "Your Highness, this is all made according to your usual favorite food. If you don't like it, I will make it for you again."

Mu Yunting frowned and said, "Your cooking skills are just like this. The porridge you make is not as good as the one Concubine Xia gave me. You might as well go to Cai Ya and ask her what Concubine Xia's porridge tastes like and learn from her."

"what?"

"Ah what, why don't you go quickly."

Kang Dahong walked out of Lanyue Pavilion without figuring out what was going on. He thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince underestimated him. Couldn't he even make porridge for the servants? Why did he need to ask?

Just add some ingredients with your eyes closed and the Cai Ya will say it’s delicious.

Back in the kitchen, Kang Dahong showed off his special skills, paying great attention to everything from the ingredients to the cooking time. The only thing he lacked was to count the rice grains to an integer.

A bowl of porridge took half an hour to cook. The rice grains were cooked but not mushy, and were full of the flavors of various ingredients.

When this bowl of porridge with a bright luster was placed in front of Mu Yunting, Kang Dahong was confident. He was sure that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would be conquered by the taste as soon as he took a bite.
