Xiao Yunchen saw that she had cleared away the gloom, and his mood became clearer. "That's right, although a beauty like the princess is also beautiful when she cries, but after all, smiling is better than crying, and you still have to smile more.
good."
Suddenly, Yu Yunxuan felt that her cheeks were getting hot and her heartbeat was speeding up. Her already beautiful face looked even more attractive after adding a bit of blush.
Xiao Yunchen was almost distracted, so he quickly looked away.
Yu Yunxuan said: "To be honest, in previous years, I would have been surrounded by a large group of relatives and friends. This year, I am far away from home and am alone. I feel very lonely."
Xiao Yunchen asked curiously: "Is today a special day?"
Yu Yunxuan lowered her eyes, hesitated for a moment, and said, "To be honest, today is my birthday."
"Birthday?" Xiao Yunchen was obviously surprised, and then quickly calmed down, "Where is the second prince? As an elder brother, how can he not spend his birthday with his sister?"
"Second brother is busy with peace talks every day. How can he remember such a small thing? Besides, I don't want to disturb him."
Xiao Yunchen nodded and sighed: "Oh, so is your sixth sister. She even forgot her birthday."
Yu Yunxuan added: "Sixth sister didn't even know when my birthday was."
"How is that possible? Don't you sisters always have a good relationship?"
"The relationship is good, but the anniversary of the death of the sixth sister and the concubine is within these few days. Every time during this period, she will be very sad. How can I bother her." Yu Yunxuan replied with a sad face, not at all.
He didn't notice Xiao Yunchen's temptation.
In fact, Xiao Yunchen suspected that she was lying, and even this chance encounter was carefully arranged by her and Yu Xiunan. However, at this moment, it seemed that she was sincere, but it didn't seem like a lie.
Seeing Yu Yunxuan's lost and pitiful look, Xiao Yunchen couldn't control himself and felt pity for her. He smiled and said: "In our Dongchen, everyone must eat two things on their birthday.
thing."
Yu Yunxuan asked: "What?"
"Of course it's longevity noodles and poached eggs."
"I know about poached eggs, but what's the difference between this longevity noodles and Yangchun noodles?"
Yu Yunxuan had never been to Dongchen and had only heard of the Yangchun noodles here. So not long after arriving in Dongchen, she couldn't help but curious and tried it. The taste was very different from the noodles in the West. But she liked the longevity noodles.
Never heard of it.
"You'll know in a minute." Xiao Yunchen didn't explain, "Let's go, I'll take you to eat."
Yu Yunxuan was secretly happy and followed him without hesitation through several bustling streets, then through several alleys, and finally came to the door of a villa.
She originally thought Xiao Yunchen was going to take her to a noodle shop or restaurant for dinner, but unexpectedly she came to a residential area and asked in confusion: "Where is this?"
"This is a villa I lived in before." Xiao Yunchen opened the door and walked in.
"Ah? Oh..." Yu Yunxuan was stunned. What did you bring her here for?
Xiao Yunchen noticed that Yu Yunxuan had not followed, so he turned back to look at her. Seeing the confused look on her face, Xiao Yunchen couldn't help laughing. "Don't worry, I didn't bring you here to do anything to you. Come in quickly."
Yu Yunxuan was a little embarrassed, lowered her head and followed in.
The courtyard is not very big. There is only one old man living in it. It is cleaned every day so that Xiao Yunchen can come back to live. In the past, Xiao Yunchen was more leisurely and would often bring people back. However, since he became the regent, he almost
Never came back.
When the old housekeeper saw Xiao Yunchen coming back, and there was a woman as beautiful as a fairy beside him, he was not surprised and leaned over and said with a low smile: "My lord, it's been a long time since I came here. Which building does this girl belong to this time?"
Xiao Yunchen knew that the old housekeeper thought Yu Yunxuan was a girl from a brothel, so he quickly corrected her: "Old housekeeper, these are not those girls. Don't talk nonsense."
The old housekeeper took a second look at Yu Yunxuan and saw that her demeanor and demeanor were indeed not comparable to those of other women. He knew that she was a woman from a good family, so he smiled with some relief, thinking that his master had finally enlightened and stopped acting recklessly.
"Well, Your Majesty, you take the girl to the hall to have tea, and I will cook for you and the girl."
Xiao Yunchen immediately stopped him and said, "No, old housekeeper, please rest. I need to use this kitchen today."
"You?" The old housekeeper looked at him in surprise, "Don't set the kitchen on fire like you did when you were a child!"
Xiao Yunchen twitched the corner of his mouth, glanced at Yu Yunxuan who was snickering at the side, laughed dryly and said: "These days are different from the past, I promise not to burn down the kitchen!"
He turned to Yu Yunxuan and said: "Miss Yu, you and the old housekeeper go to the flower hall to sit down and wait for me to turn you into a bowl of longevity noodles."
Yu Yunxuan wanted to say that she didn't need to bother him, but she was really curious about how the food tasted by his majestic prince and wanted to try it, so she nodded and followed the old housekeeper.
Seeing that the old housekeeper and Xiao Yunchen were very familiar with each other, she felt like they were getting along with each other like relatives. She asked the old housekeeper on the way: "Old man, have you been with the prince for many years?"
The old housekeeper smiled kindly, nodded and said: "Yes, it has been decades. I was the general manager of the old prince's palace. I worked there as an errand before the two masters, Prince Chen and Prince Regent, were born.
Later, when I got old and had no relatives at home, I wanted to find a quiet place to spend my old age, so the prince placed me here."
It turned out that I watched them grow up, no wonder they seemed so close, Yu Yunxuan thought to herself.
After sitting in the flower hall for nearly half an hour, Xiao Yunchen made the longevity noodles, brought them over personally, and said with a smile: "The longevity noodles are ready, let's try it?"
Yu Yunxuan looked at the noodles in the bowl. There was a perfectly fried golden poached egg on the top, and there were cabbage, carrots and other vegetables in the soup noodles. It was a big bowl, with white water mist floating out, and the fragrance was
It's tangy and looks appetizing.
"Then I'm welcome." Yu Yunxuan couldn't wait to pick up the noodles and take a bite. Then she took a sip of the noodle soup and couldn't help but praise: "I never thought that the prince not only knows how to cook, but also has such good craftsmanship. This noodle is
The best noodles I have ever eaten in my life.”
After hearing such a high evaluation, Xiao Yunchen didn't even think about whether he was trying to be polite, so he just accepted it unceremoniously and showed a proud smile.
He recalled the past: "In the early years, I traveled around. Once I ran out of money, I stayed in a restaurant to work. The owner of that restaurant was a nice person. When I had nothing to do, he allowed me to learn cooking skills and cook my own food.
Something to eat.
Over time, my cooking skills have improved a lot, and making longevity noodles is just a piece of cake."
Yu Yunxuan listened to him and ate the noodles. She felt more and more delicious and asked him with interest: "Where have you traveled?"
Xiao Yunchen replied: "I have been to various places in Dongchen, as well as several surrounding small countries."
