Chapter 861 This fish has become the darling of the noble fa

round, she would immediately act like she didn't know anything. Don't get me wrong, the "green tea" trick worked pretty well, but Zong Yu wasn't that kind of lazy man. Her behavior could only be cons...He looked so adorable when he was embarrassed, a big man blushing so easily, all the women in the room were enjoying the sight.

Mu hurriedly pulled her daughter-in-law's sleeve.

"Jinshu, Lord Gong is a benefactor to our family, don't speak like that."

Fang Jinshi nodded, "Yes, mother, the daughter-in-law knows she was wrong."

"Lord Palace, dinner is ready. Please take a seat."

Fu Shangyuan, of course, took the first seat. Mu shi and Fang Jinshu sat beside him, and the rest followed suit, taking their places in order. Gong Yu was arranged to sit beside Zong Bai.

The rest were the servants of the household. Xiao Yue and several maids looked at each other, standing there for a long time without daring to move.

Fang Jinshi had been puzzled why they were standing there. When there weren't outsiders around, their family wasn't that formal. When they ate this kind of communal meal, Xiaoyue and the others would also have their own place at the table.

She suddenly remembered that Prince Jing was also there today.

That's right, a prince wouldn't usually sit at the same table and eat with a maidservant.

Xiaoyue knew that the mistress felt sorry for them, but as maidservants, they understood the situation. They couldn't let outsiders think their family's maidservants were unruly in this kind of situation. That way, the mistress would also lose face.

Then Xiaoyue nodded at Fang Jinshu, and together with Jin Yu and Qiujing, she served the guests at the table.

Not only were the three not disgruntled, but they also served without any fault.

This lady was so agreeable that even King Jing couldn't help but praise her.

"Where did you get these maids They're quite good at serving."

Fang Jinxiu didn't like to hear others talk about Xiaoyue and her friends this way. She responded with a blank expression, perfunctorily.

"Has been with me for a long time, unavailable for purchase outside."

What she said is true, it's unavailable for purchase outside.

She treated Xiaoyue and her friends like half-sisters, family.

King Jing seemed to disagree with Fang Jinshu's opinion. Servants are servants, after all. With money and power, what can't be bought

He couldn't quite see Fang Jinshi through. She seemed shrewd and intelligent, yet she always acted emotionally in situations like this.

Sooner or later, you'll lose big in this area.

Knowing that Fang Jinxiu wouldn't like to hear this, he lowered his head and drank without mentioning it again.

When the fish in the pot was fully cooked and released an alluring aroma, a hint of something different appeared on King Jing's face, or perhaps it was anticipation and surprise.

"What is this dish"

"The inside should be fish, right How come the fish meat smells like milk"

The palace had special milk and goat's milk supplied for the nobles. However, these things tasted extremely strong. The palace nobles only liked to use milk for bathing or mixing it with other ingredients to make different dishes.

but it is not eaten alone.

Drinking it alone is really not tasty.

The Jing Wangfu naturally had a supply of cow and sheep milk every day, but only one small bucket.

He doesn't particularly like the taste of cow or sheep milk, so he rarely eats it.

Today, the aroma of milk emanating from this pot is not only rich and fragrant but also completely devoid of any fishy or gamy smell.

And he somehow smelled familiar, as if he had eaten it somewhere before, but couldn't remember for a moment.

Among those present here, only King Jing and the Palace Mistress have not tasted the mountain spring silverfish. She gestured to Xiaoyue to lift the lid of the pot.

A surge of scalding hot steam billowed out, the aroma of the mountain spring silver fish intensifying violently in the air.

"Fish inside's lips twitched. She was touched by Zong Yu's thoughtful gesture, but he had been busy all night until dawn yesterday. Now, with the new clothes and breakfast from the mountain villa, he probably had...
