Chapter 26 This is the gap

Liu Shiying remained calm, secretly observing Long Chengye's expression.

When Long Chengye saw Nami, his face didn't fluctuate at all.

Mu Qingyan became angry immediately, and glared at Liu Shiying: "Sister Liu, should you explain these ingredients to me?"

Liu Shiying looked virtuous and virtuous: "Sister, these ingredients have only been stored for a long time, but they are still edible. Moreover, this is not because my sister intentionally made things difficult for her. It’s all the same food.”

Hearing that she also ate this kind of ingredients, Long Chengye immediately became angry: "Bold servants, how dare you buy such inferior products to pass them off as good ones, have you eaten the guts of bears and leopards?"

Nanny Zhang and a few little maidservants knelt down quickly.

Mu Qingyan twitched her lips, this is the gap, Lao Tzu doesn't care about this kind of rice, and Concubine Liu throws a tantrum when she eats this kind of rice, hmph, the dog scum king really dotes on his concubine.

Hearing her voice, Long Chengye's mood became inexplicably joyful.

Nanny Zhang tremblingly said: "My lord, when I was shopping in the kitchen, I bought the best quality goods. However, the weather has been cold and humid recently. When these rice noodles were placed in the warehouse, worms were born. The concubine and empress did not have them before." In front of the door, the old slaves boiled these rice noodles for the servants to eat, but the bad ones had to be thrown away.

After the side concubine took charge of the house, she was reluctant to throw away the food, so she took the initiative to eat the food that was infested with worms.

The side concubine also taught the servants that they should not buy too much, but enough is enough. Everything in the palace was earned by the prince, and even a grain of rice should not be wasted. "

After hearing this, Long Chengye felt that Liu Shiying was sensible: "Shiying, I have wronged you."

Liu Shiying immediately said softly: "My lord, it's what a concubine should do to be diligent and thrifty in managing the family."

Mu Qingyan stared at Liu Shiying suspiciously, how can this white lotus be so impartial?
She stooped down and grabbed a handful of rice, spread it out in the palm of her hand, looked at it, and said, "Damp rice will become moldy, but these rice are very dry and there is no mold at all. How can this be explained?"

Long Chengye looked at Nanny Zhang with a slightly cold gaze.

Nanny Zhang was stunned, and quietly glanced at Liu Shiying.

Liu Shiying explained: "Sister, you are a princess, how can you eat moldy rice? So I asked Nanny Zhang to take the part that was not damp in the middle.

Although the rice has worms, it is still edible. Elder sister, there are still many refugees out there who cannot afford to eat. The prince cares about the world. As the prince's wives and concubines, we should set an example and be diligent and thrifty in housekeeping. "

Mu Qingyan knew that she did it on purpose, but she couldn't refute it directly when she said such general words.

Mu Qingyan thought for a while and said, "It's right to be diligent and thrifty in housekeeping, but protecting food is the top priority."

She looked at Long Chengye and suggested, "My lord, in the huge Prince Ling's Mansion, vegetables, melons and fruits can be bought and used at any time to keep them fresh, but staple foods such as rice and noodles must be hoarded. The weather is cold and humid, and the rice noodles are spoiled like this. It can only show that the storage method of the Wangfu Grain Depot is wrong.

Therefore, the concubine wanted to take the initiative to ask Ying to help the palace improve the warehouse, so as to prevent the good food from being wasted in vain. "

"You know how to improve the warehouse?" Long Chengye glanced at her in surprise.

Rice and noodles are very prone to insects. When he led troops to fight in the past, the military rations sent by the court often had mold and insects. If there were insects, he could barely eat them. will get sick.

This leads to a great waste of grain, and if the storage method of grain can be improved, it is indeed a great thing that benefits the country and the people.
