After returning to the capital, the eldest daughter saved her entire clan with her medical skills.

Chapter 223 A gluttonous feast

If they participate in this business in the name of the General's Mansion, even if they make money, they will not be able to keep it.

Partnering with Murong Xun was the right decision. She could earn money without worrying about being targeted, and she wouldn't even have to worry about sales channels.

It's just a matter of giving him 50% of the profits, which also strengthens the relationship with the regent—killing three birds with one stone.

"Young Miss, we know how to handle these fish, but what about this sea snake?"

The cook turned pale with fright when he saw the thick, long sea snake.

He knew that southerners ate snake meat, but nobody in the capital ate it, and he had never dealt with it before.

"sea snake?"

Xue Ruanruan snapped out of her daze and, seeing the horrified expressions on everyone's faces, instantly realized that they had mistaken the eel for a sea snake.

“This is not a sea snake. Sea snakes are highly venomous, so how could I let you handle it? This is a moray eel, which is also a type of fish. I will take care of it.”

Conger eels are rare creatures, generally living in deep waters below 50 meters. Even fishermen on the coast rarely catch them, so it's no wonder they are mistaken for other species.

There are many types of sea fish. Except for conger eels, the other types can be treated the same as ordinary fish.

Only shellfish, crayfish, and crayfish require Xue Ruanruan to demonstrate personally.

Fortunately, everyone studied diligently, so she only taught them twice and then didn't need to supervise them anymore.

Xue Ruanruan glanced at the sky. Li'er should be back at the manor soon. She needed to hurry up and cook so that everyone wouldn't go hungry.

With clear division of labor and excellent teamwork, one delicious dish after another was served, filling the kitchen with a rich and lingering aroma.

Without anyone's help, she had to cook each dish herself, and they were all brightly colored and fragrant, making even the chefs' mouths water.

Knowing that her younger brother was inviting two of his classmates to dinner at the mansion, Xue Ruanruan prepared to cook several dishes suitable for the children.

For example, sweet and sour pork with pineapple, candied yogurt, crispy fried bananas, braised pork ribs, glutinous rice pearl balls, tomato beef brisket, grilled squid, crispy pork with scallions, sweet and sour cherry pork, steamed egg with minced meat...

The dishes my sisters-in-law love to eat include salt and pepper mantis shrimp, seafood in a gravy, steamed black grouper, spicy swimming crab, braised sea cucumber with scallions, stir-fried cabbage with vinegar, spicy snails, garlic shrimp, crystal shrimp dumplings, braised pork knuckle, deep-fried ribbonfish, spicy crayfish, boiled abalone, steamed pork with winter melon, steamed chicken in a clay pot, braised mutton, and charcoal-grilled lamb leg...

I also didn't forget to cook dishes that suited my grandmother and mother's light palates, such as steamed sea bass, braised beef brisket with potatoes, sweet and sour pork, scrambled eggs, blanched bok choy, braised pork trotters with soybeans, braised beef ribs with soy sauce, steamed pork slices with mushrooms, blanched prawns, and braised pork ribs...

Xue Ruanruan cooked every recipe she could think of until the cook whispered in her ear, "Miss, the counter is already full."

"what?"

Xue Ruanruan, who was so engrossed in cooking, was a little taken aback when she heard this, until she saw that all the space in the kitchen where she could put vegetables was filled.

I only realized then that I had done too much.

I quickly finished the last dish I had on hand, and then cooked a seafood and mushroom soup before asking the cook to put out the fire.

"Xue Li, where is Sister Xue? I'm going to the kitchen to find her."

Having not eaten all day, and having only eaten some fruit at the General's Mansion, Xu Zijun dared not eat any more, fearing that she would be full after Sister Xue finished cooking.

After playing with Xue Li and Gu Mingcheng for a while, Xu Zijun became restless and kept glancing towards the backyard.
