“But that’s impolite.” Zhi Shan refused.

“It’s okay. This is my home. I can do whatever I want. Otherwise, the two of us won’t be able to finish this dish alone.” Zhou Ying patted the stool beside her and said, “Sit down, and don’t worry.”

“I like Madam Gu very much. I don’t like those rules either.” Zhi Shan confessed.

“Exactly, so do as you do at home.”

Zhi Shan nodded her head and allowed her maid to sit down.

Then, the four of them happily ate together.

Zhi Shan asked, “Madam Gu, where can I buy this red chili? It’s appetizing and can keep the cold away. It’s a good thing.”

“They are not sold in the market. We grow them specially for our restaurant.

“If you like it, I’ll give you some. After two years, you’ll be able to buy more once it’s everywhere.”

“What a pity.”

“I can give you some seeds. See if you can plant them on the Northern Continent.”

“Really? That’s great!”

When they left in the afternoon, Zhi Shan and the other two brought two large jars of chopped pepper sauce and two large bags of Longjing tea. Finally, Zhou Ying prepared a basket of snacks for her.

After sending her off, Zhou Ying looked at Qiuxiang and asked, “Qiuxiang, what did Princess Zhi Shan give me?”

“I haven’t seen it yet.” After Qiuxiang finished speaking, she passed the box to her.

Zhou Ying opened the box and took a look. Inside were four pigeon-egg-sized rubies, each worth a fortune. They would make a perfect addition to Guoguo’s dowry.

She scanned them with her divine sense to ensure no hidden dangers, then turned to Qiuxiang and said, “Instruct the kitchen to buy more fish these next few days. Also, see if you can find any mackerel.”

“Yes, Mistress,” Qiuxiang replied and turned to leave.

After returning to her quarters, Zhi Shan divided everything she had received, except the chili sauce, with Sovereign King Ke. “Third Brother, look at all these delicious things!” she exclaimed.

“You little glutton, I heard you went to learn cooking from Madam Gu?”

“That’s right. We have so much fish on the Northern Continent but don’t know how to cook it, so it all goes to waste. That’s why I went to learn how to cook fish. That way, our people on the Northern Continent can enjoy food.”

“That’s thoughtful of you, but remember to repay her kindness.”

“Don’t worry, I gave her four rubies. That should be more than enough to buy her recipes. Oh, and about the chili peppers, I asked about those too. They’re not very common in Great Ming either, and they’re not for sale. Their restaurant grows their own, but Madam Gu said she could give me some seeds to try.”

“You’ve worked hard.”

“It’s nothing. I’ll have someone buy some fish this afternoon, and I’ll try cooking tonight. You have to come over and try it!”

“I’m not free tonight. Let’s reschedule.” Sovereign King Ke stood up immediately.

He had never seen her cook before, and he didn’t think she would be able to make anything good on her first try. He didn’t want to torture his stomach. “Third Brother, what do you mean by that?”

“Nothing much; I really do have something to do.”

“You better not be lying to me.”

“How could I? I’m going to visit King An’s heir now. When I return, I’ll try to bring back more flour and rice.” Sovereign King Ke finished speaking and hurried out.

Zhi Shan was annoyed, but she couldn’t chase after him.

She had someone buy some fish and huffed that he would be begging her to try it once she was done cooking.

However, as soon as she started cooking that afternoon, she realized it wasn’t as easy as it looked; even killing the fish was a struggle.

Frustratedly, she looked at the maid and said, “You do it.. It looked so easy when Madam Gu did it, but why doesn’t the knife listen to me now?”
