Chapter 222
"Naturally." Ding Xiang nodded, motioning everyone to look at the table: "Pepper-flavored brine shrimp, lotus root and corn bone soup, three fresh tofu soup, fried crab with ginger and scallions, these are four hot dishes. There are also four cold dishes, enoki mushroom mixed with celery, Spinach vermicelli, salted duck eggs, cinnamon pears."

Wan'er scratched her head with joy when she saw it, and said cheerfully: "Sure enough, it is right to come to her house for dinner, son, our palace has never cooked these dishes."

Chu Rui glanced at Ding Xiang, nodded and praised: "It's not bad. It's different from the food I ate at your house last time. We have never cooked these dishes in our house. They are delicious, delicious, and very good."

Ding Xiang was a little complacent, "I'm good at cooking. In the future, the prince will come whenever he wants to eat, and we will be at home almost every day."

Chu Rui was puzzled: "You won't go home in the future? Can't you? There are tens of acres of land at home."

Ding Xiang said: "When the farming is busy, I will go home for a while, otherwise, I am afraid that they will be too busy. We are not idle here, we are busier than at home. We are busy at home depending on the season. Here, raw medicine is processed every day. Where can I have a free day?"

Chu Rui was taken aback, "The medicinal materials that are drying in the yard are all the products of raw medicine?"

Ding Xiang nodded, "Yeah. The ones sent by the family are processed and sold directly. The medicinal materials in this courtyard are all purchased from the city and sold in the city."

While talking, he signaled Sanbao to open the rice wine, "My lord, this is the rice wine from the south. This is what we always have at home. Try it and see if you can get used to it?"

Wan'er glanced at Chu Rui, and said to Ding Xiang, "Our son likes liquor."

Chu Rui glared at Wan'er, "You can do whatever you want, why are you talking so much!"

Ding Xiang hurriedly said: "I was negligent today, I will go to the street to buy some tomorrow, and I can drink it when my son comes over next time. How about trying rice wine today?"

Chu Rui nodded, "Okay. It's not bad to change the taste."

Ding Xiang saw that Chu Rui was good at good things, and said happily: "I like yellow rice wine. It can be used as wine reference, as well as dishes and seasonings. It really kills three birds with one stone. Drinking more will not hurt your body or head. I think it is better than white wine."

"Besides, there are crabs on the table today, which are the most suitable pairing with rice wine. Prince, if you don't believe me, try it."

Chu Rui nodded, "Okay! Now that the food is ready, let's serve it."

Although he is not the master, he has the highest status, and it is natural for him to speak.

Due to the status of Sanbao and Xiaofang, they are naturally a little restrained, but they forget it after eating.The food is really delicious, and the key is the crab that the two of them have never eaten before!
Sanbao took two jars of rice wine, and the five of them had one cup for each other. After the food was finished, the wine was also drunk.

Seeing everyone's unfinished looks, Ding Xiang and You Rongyan smiled and said: "The reception is not good today, next time I will prepare early, and I will definitely let the prince have a good time."

Chu Rui glanced at Ding Xiang, "You don't have to be too modest. Today's food is very good, and I am very satisfied. Especially the crab is served with rice wine. It is the first time to eat like this. It is not bad."

Ding Xiang sent Xiaofang to clean up the table, took a few people to the courtyard, and sat under the old apricot tree to drink tea. Hearing what Chu Rui said, she smiled and said, "Yes. Everything in the world has its own destiny. Rice wine and crabs are Perfect match."

Wan'er said happily from the side: "The main reason is that the cloves are delicious, the ingredients are complete, and there are many kinds of meals."
