Translator: 549690339

Concubine Jin covered her nose.

“Think about a whole table of dishes.” Jiang Ning tempted her.

“You…” Concubine Jin frowned tightly, hesitated for a moment, and eventually opened her mouth, carefully nibbling a small bite.

She chewed it.

Jiang Ning grinned as she watched her.

Concubine Jin swallowed and looked at her, asking, “What is this?”

“It’s called stinky…”

“Huh?”

“Oh, it’s called Black Jade Tofu.” Seeing that Concubine Jin’s expression wasn’t right, Jiang Ning immediately changed her words cleverly.

There were many rules in the palace, and ordinary foods had to be given extraordinary names to distinguish them from common foods eaten by ordinary people, showing their nobility.

For example, ordinary cabbage tofu soup in the palace would be called Jadeite and White Jade Soup.

By this token, the black stinky tofu could not be called stinky tofu; it was called Black Jade Tofu, showing the nobility of Your Highness.

Otherwise, the noble and beautiful Concubine Jin was actually eating stinky tofu?

It would be too harsh to say so.

Sure enough, hearing the four words “Black Jade Tofu,” Concubine Jin nodded in satisfaction.

Jiang Ning thought to herself, I’m really too clever.

“Is this really tofu?” Concubine Jin asked.

“Yes, it’s made of tofu.”

“The name is quite good, it really looks like a piece of black jade. But this taste…”

“You’re not used to the smell yet. Don’t believe me, try another bite.” Jiang Ning handed the rest of the big piece to her lips.

This time, Concubine Jin didn’t hesitate to open her mouth and eat it.

The more she chewed, the more fragrant it became.

“Give me the chopsticks. I want to see how this is made.” After finishing one piece, Concubine Jin stretched out her hand to snatch the chopsticks from Jiang Ning and stuffed a piece into her mouth herself.

Jiang Ning chuckled.

Successfully recommended.

With Concubine Jin’s foodie mind, it’d be strange if she didn’t fight to eat it.

One piece, then another.

Looking at the empty bowl, Concubine Jin was still unsatisfied, “Is this all there is?”

Jiang Ning did make quite a lot, but she only brought four pieces, and the rest were already divided among the people in the kitchen.

“Just a few pieces of tofu, that’s too stingy.” Concubine Jin wasn’t satisfied, as she hadn’t had enough of the lingering fragrance on her lips and teeth and was more disgruntled in her heart.

Jiang Ning laughed and said, “Didn’t I worry that Your Highness wouldn’t like it? Don’t worry, there’s something else here. Try this.”

She opened a large lidded bowl with a bowl full of noodle ingredients.

“Noodles? What’s so special about that?”

Having experienced the “true fragrance” of Black Jade Tofu, Concubine Jin became cautious about this bowl of noodles with a strange taste.

Jiang Ning laughed and said, “Just give it a try, it’s a bit spicy.”

A palace maid brought a handkerchief and tied it around her neck to prevent the expensive skirt from getting dirty.

Concubine Jin picked up the chopsticks, picked up a noodle, and put it into her mouth.

The first bite was spicy, and the noodles tasted a bit strange, much more slippery than regular noodles.

“This is not noodles.”

“It’s called rice noodles,” Jiang Ning smiled, “This bowl is called… Pagoda Town River Monster, cough, Pagoda Snail Rice Noodles.”

“Not bad, very good.”

After Concubine Jin said “not bad” several times, she fell silent.

What echoed in Jiang Ning’s ears were only the sounds of slurping and panting due to the spiciness.

Concubine Jin finished an entire large bowl of snail rice noodles without looking up, her nose sweating from the spiciness, and a faint pinkish color appearing on her snow-white skin.

She looked like a charming little girl.

“Do you like it?” Jiang Ning asked with a smile.

“It’s really refreshing.” Concubine Jin exhaled, “I haven’t had such a refreshing meal in a long time.”

A palace maid laughed and said, “Your Highness hasn’t had a good appetite recently, it’s a rare treat to eat so much today….”
