Chapter 819 t

Although it was said to be a simple meal, the old man and his wife made it very rich . They killed a chicken they raised in their yard to cook a large pot of chicken soup, which was very fragrant .

There were also several little farmer dishes . It was very colourful and looked pleasing to the eye, raising one's appet.i.te .

Mo Chuan raised his chopsticks and stared at a dish as he asked, “Aunty, what dish in this? I have never seen this before . ”

He had lived a sheltered life in the royal palace, eating countless delicacies of the world, but he was surprised by the dishes on a normal farmer's table . The old uncle and his wife were stunned . When they were about to reply, Chen Ning spoke first, “You don't recognize this dish? This dish has a very good name . ”

“What good name?” Mo Chuan looked over at her .

She replied in a serious manner, “This dish is called golden lined white jade board, red billed green parrot . ”

Mo Chuan repeated, “Golden lined white jade board, red billed green parrot?”

This name was special enough and it sounded good . Moreover, the more he looked at it, the more it seemed like a jade plate with golden lining on all four sides, with the center being snow white like jade . Was this the golden lined white jade board?

As for the red billed green parrot, it was a vegetable dish . The red stems matched with the green leaves made it look like a green parrot with its red mouth open .

“Good name, good name! The taste must be pretty good as well . ” Mo Chuan praised .

The wife gave an “aiyo” before she broke out in laughter .

“What white jade plate, green parrot, this little miss is truly interesting . This dish is incredibly ordinary, it's just spinach with tofu, have you two never had this before?” She looked at Mo Chuan with a strange gaze .

Spinach with tofu!

Mo Chuan's face instantly turned red and he glared at Chen Ning . Mo Chuan's face instantly turned red and he glared at Chen Ning .

She was becoming braver and braver!

She actually played a trick on him, making him look the fool in front of these two old people . He would see how he got back at her .

Chen Ning bent over with laughter, unable to sit straight .

She had read this joke in a book before . It was about a disguised emperor who went to a farmer's house while it was raining and ate a meal . There was this spinach with tofu dish that the emperor did not recognize, but felt was delicious . When he asked the farmer the name of the dish, the farmer gave the name “Golden lined white jade board, red billed green parrot” .

When the emperor returned to the palace, he could never forget this dish . He ordered the royal chef to make this dish, but the royal chef had never heard of it before, causing his hair to turn white with anxiety . They finally found the farmer with great difficulty, inviting the farmer into the palace to make the meal .

The emperor saw the dish was exactly the same and was filled with joy . However, once he took a bit, he revealed a look of disappointment and did not take another bite .

This was because this dish was incredibly normal . He didn't know that because he was hungry, he treated this farmer's dish as the most delicious dish in the world .

Chen Ning thought this was always an allegorical joke, but she never thought that something like this would actually appear in front of her .

Thinking of Mo Chuan's honest expression, she kept laughing until her stomach hurt .

Mo Chaun's face turned red from her laughter and the chopsticks he lifted could not go down no matter what . His face turned stern and he gave a heavy cough . His left hand stretched out under the table and forcefully pinched her wrist .
