Chapter 444 Palace Banquet 16

   "The opportunity is rare, doesn't Mrs. Gu show her talent, or does she have no talent at all?" Yang Wanyu said at this time.

   "That's right, hurry up, I need something from this palace to prepare for you." The princess said at this time.

  Gu Chengrui was about to get up when Zhou Ying grabbed her and said, "Then trouble the princess, prepare me a sharp knife, a piece of soft tofu, a chopping board, and a basin of water."

   "Listen, do you mean to cook?" The Eighth Princess said with a mocking expression.

   Zhou Ying smiled and did not reply.

  The eighth princess snorted coldly and sent someone to prepare.

   Everyone immediately started to discuss curiously, wondering if she was making a fuss, could it really be that she couldn't cook, but there was no fire, how to do it.

  The queen mother asked curiously: "Zhou girl, what are you doing?"

   "Returning to the Queen Mother is not about cooking, but performing knife skills." Zhou Ying stepped forward.

   Zhou Jiaqing sneered after hearing this: "I thought why did you make progress, it seems that you are revolving around the pot."

   Zhou Ying gave her a half-smile after hearing this and ignored her.

   After a while, Tofu came on stage, and everyone looked at her curiously.

   Zhou Ying didn't get up either, and started to operate directly on the table in front of her.

   First picked up the tofu and made it into a square shape.

   Then put it on the chopping board. After the knife was soaked in water, it quickly cut on the tofu, but from a distance, it seemed that she was holding the knife above the tofu, shaking her wrist quickly.

  After cutting, I changed the direction of 90 degrees and cut it again.

   Just when everyone was stunned, she quickly cut off the four corners of the tofu and made a round shape.

   Finally, I scooped up the tofu with a knife, gently placed it in the water, shook it for a while, and then put it in the water.

   After a while, a pair of silky chrysanthemums took shape.

   Zhou Huaiming glanced at it and smiled.

   Zhou Ying raised her head at this time and said, "Eighth princess, test my sword skills in person."

  The eighth princess looked at her suspiciously and walked over. When she saw the chrysanthemums floating in the water, she was stunned.

   Zhou Jiaqing was stunned for a moment when he saw the expression of the eighth princess, then ran over, and when he saw the chrysanthemums in the water, he was convinced that this knife skill was so good that he could even cut the tofu into shreds.

  The emperor looked at their expressions with a curious look on his face, and then asked Xiao Gongduan next to him to show them to everyone.

   After the little palace maid understood, she immediately ran over to take the basin, and first went to the top to let the royal family and others read it, and then the ministers.

   Looking at them one by one is full of surprise, no one would have thought that the tender tofu was cut into flowers by her, and it was cut so finely, so evenly and continuously.

The Queen Mother asked curiously, "Zhou Ying, how long have you been practicing this knife skill, and you can actually cut soft tofu into chrysanthemums."

   "Back to the Empress Dowager, Minwomen have been doing errands in the kitchen since childhood. I can't remember how long Minwomen have been, but it has been no less than ten years."

   "So you started taking knives at the age of seven or eight?"

   "Yes, I've been holding a knife since I was able to move it."

   "It's amazing, no wonder the third child said that he likes your cooking. It seems that he has a solid foundation. Someday Ben Gong will definitely try your egg fried rice."

   "Egg fried rice, what do you mean?" the emperor asked in confusion.

   "This girl said that her specialty is egg fried rice, and she also said that the rice has to be separated into pieces, and the pieces have to be coated with egg liquid. I'm thirsty listening to it."

   "That being said, it seems that it should be really delicious. Remember to keep a copy for me when I go back to my mother to make it."

   "That's fine, I'll call you over then."
