Ye Feng's palms trembled, "Is the food I cooked bad?"
"Of course, my wife is most afraid of that smell, so you'd better take your food away quickly." Xing'er took advantage of the situation and spoke.
"Myolie."
Queen Chu scolded her again, and her voice was much harsher than before. Myolie almost knelt down in fright.
She gently raised her sleeves, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes slightly, and said with a smile, "Master, don't listen to her nonsense, I like these three dishes very much."
She picked up her chopsticks, picked up a lotus root and took a bite. The lotus root was crispy and fragrant, and tasted mellow in her mouth. It was the taste she remembered.
"It's delicious. I haven't eaten such delicious food in a long time."
"If you like it, madam, then eat more. Don't worry, these are vegetarian dishes and there is no meat in them."
"Young master, don't you like eating meat too?"
"Yeah." On the one hand, he couldn't bear to see those animals being brutally killed, and on the other hand, he wanted to earn merit for his parents, so he didn't eat anything from childhood to adulthood, except...
Except for being force-fed by Lan Banner Leader.
These dishes were very suitable to Empress Chu's taste, and she ate many of them in succession.
Ye Feng smiled and said, "I also cooked a bowl of porridge. Madam, you can try it. It's very stomach-warming."
"Yeah."
Queen Chu picked up the peony seeds and took a small scoop. The porridge was filled with millet, barley, red beans, etc. She didn't know how it was made. It was sweet and delicious, not sweet and not greasy, and melted in your mouth. It was very delicious.
"Young master, at such a young age, I didn't expect that you are so good at cooking. Whoever marries you in the future will be really lucky."
Ye Feng's smile froze slightly.
He is so dirty, how can he expect to marry and have children?
When he first learned cooking, it was just to avoid being beaten less.
Ye Feng picked up a piece of tofu and wanted to put it in her bowl, but he never had the courage to put it in, so he had to put it in his own bowl.
Being able to have breakfast with his biological mother is the happiest thing in his life, and he is satisfied.
Suddenly there was a piece of mushroom in the bowl, and Queen Chu's gentle voice rang in his ears.
"Look at how skinny you are, you should eat more."
In addition to a piece of mushroom, Queen Chu also served him a bowl of porridge.
Her smile was friendly and easy-going, without any airs of being a queen, but like a kind mother, "Eat it quickly, it won't taste good when it gets cold."
"Thank you." Ye Feng swallowed more.
He lowered his head, not daring to look at Queen Chu, for fear that Queen Chu would see something unusual about him.
Before, he had been using his sleeves to cover the back of his hand that he had bitten yesterday. But because of Empress Chu's tenderness, he temporarily forgot to cover it, and the wounds on the backs of his left and right hands were exposed.
There were teeth marks on the back of the hand, and even though they were no longer bleeding, they were still shocking.
Queen Chu discovered it immediately and was shocked.
"What happened to your hand?"
Ye Feng hurriedly hid his hand and avoided his eyes, "It's just a small injury. It was bitten accidentally. It will be fine in two days."
"The injury is so serious, how could it be a minor injury? Myolie, hurry up and get the medicine box."
"yes."
"You child, you are so old and you don't know how to take care of yourself. What if the wound becomes inflamed?"
She held his hand, carefully cleaned his wounds, and applied medicine one by one, with distress in her eyes.
Ye Feng wanted to refuse, but he was afraid of hurting Empress Chu, so he could only let her bandage it.
Except for Gu Chunuan, this was the first time he felt someone bandaging him, like he was holding a rare treasure, for fear of accidentally hurting him.
He cherished this feeling of being cared for.
"Did someone bite you?"
"No...no."
"Silly boy, no matter how bad your mood is, you can't bite your own hand."
"Okay..." Ye Feng opened the corners of his mouth and uttered a sentence softly.
"Okay, don't touch the water these days. You should be fine in a few days."
Ye Feng looked at his hands with thick bandages, and his heart was full.
He wanted to say that compared to what he had suffered before, these were not injuries at all and there was no need to worry.
But he didn't dare to say it, so he could only respond obediently.
Queen Chu put away the medicine box, and the edge of the medicine box accidentally caught Ye Feng's sleeve, revealing Ye Feng's criss-crossed and scarred arms.
There were brand marks, whip wounds, burns, sword wounds, halberd wounds, etc. intertwined on the arm. There were even several pieces of flesh bitten off in many places, and there was almost no intact place.
Queen Chu and Xing'er both gasped, and their faces instantly turned pale.
Ye Feng panicked and quickly pulled down his sleeves. His cold eyes were no longer as calm as before.
He didn't know if Queen Chu had seen the wounds on his arms, so he could only explain anxiously, "I have rough skin and thick flesh, and these wounds..."
Xing'er shouted in shock, "Oh my God, who are you? How come you have so many injuries on your body?"
Seeing the strange expression on Ye Feng's face, Empress Chu calmed down her mind and covered up the matter lightly, leaving Ye Feng some face.
"Young master, you really have a lot of teeth marks on your body. Even if you feel sad and angry in the future, just don't bite me again. You are so irritated that you don't want to step back quickly."
"Madam, he not only has teeth marks, he...he..."
"You girl are becoming more and more unruly. You have no place to interrupt when the master is talking. If you don't step back, you won't have to serve me anymore."
Xing'er's heart trembled.
The empress has been angry with her several times today.
If she doesn't step back, what will she do if the empress no longer wants her?
Xing'er didn't dare to delay. After bowing, she stepped back with a pale face and waited at a distance for instructions.
"Xing'er has been spoiled by me. She always talks nonsense lately. I'll teach her a lesson tomorrow."
"It doesn't matter."
Ye Feng was not sure whether Queen Chu had seen his wound.
"Eat quickly." Queen Chu gave him another piece of lotus root.
"Thank you ma'am."
Three dishes for two people, and they were all eaten quickly.
This was the best appetite Queen Chu had had in many years, and she also ate the most. The servants who were cleaning up the dishes couldn't help but be shocked.
Queen Chu smiled and said, "The food cooked by the young master is really unforgettable."
"If Madam likes it, I can make it for Madam every day."
After saying that, he regretted it.
What kind of status does he have, how can he be qualified to cook for her every day?
If you eat it once, it will feel fresh, but if you eat it twice, you may get tired of it.
Unexpectedly, Empress Chu agreed cheerfully, "If there were meals cooked by the young master every day, then I would have really burned high-quality incense in my previous life."
Queen Chu looked at Ye Feng's handsome face, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt that his facial features looked very familiar, much like her husband when he was young.
Especially those eyes, her husband's eyes were full of energy and vitality.
But he was depressed, cold and lonely, with a little bit of inferiority complex.
I don’t know what this child has experienced in the past, but he is covered in scars and still lives cautiously.
"I don't know what the young master's name is and how expensive he is this year."
"My dear Ye Feng, this year... this year is nineteen." He wanted to say ten, but he was afraid that she would be suspicious, so he added one year old.
Queen Chu was a little disappointed and murmured to herself, "Nineteen years old..."
Her son is ten years old and does not match his age.
The author has something to say:
This may be the happiest thing in Ye Feng's life.
After this point, the plot slowly reaches its climax.
