This was the first time Wei Ruo had encountered someone who asked for something so directly and bluntly. The point was that she was not familiar with this Lu Yuhong!

Just when she was thinking about how to answer, Chu Lan’s voice was heard.

“Brother Yu, your request is too much.”

Lu Yuhong scratched his head awkwardly, “I’m sorry, Brother Chu. I only want to ask for shiitake mushroom sauce. You can blame Xie Jue for being that stingy. He said his sister gave it to him, and he only gave me a spoonful to mix with a bowl of noodles. 

He said he wouldn’t give me more. This sauce couldn’t be bought anywhere else, and I finally met the owner. I forgot the rules and etiquette as I really craved it!”

Lu Yuhong was a bit careless and he tends to do things without thinking of rules and regulations.

After Chu Lan’s reminder, Lu Yuhong also realized that it was inappropriate for him to ask a lady from a noble family for mushroom sauce in the street.

So he apologized, “Sorry for my bad behavior, Miss Wei. I won’t disturb you anymore.”

After speaking, Lu Yuhong stepped aside.

Yun Shi ordered the carriage driver to continue moving forward. After passing by Chu Lan and Lu Yuhong, Wei Qingwan carefully lifted the bamboo curtain of the window and glanced at the two people behind.

Yun Shi then asked Wei Ruo, “Ruo’er, what with the sauce that was mentioned just now?”

Wei Ruo calmly replied, “I made a sauce with minced meat and shiitake mushrooms in my spare time, and gave two jars to Xie Ying as a gift, and maybe Xie Ying gave it to her brother. Xie Ying’s brother is now also in the city, and he probably is good friends with the young master just now, so they tasted it together.”

Wei Ruo originally gave it to Xie Ying, which was reasonable, so there was no need to worry about being held accountable by Yun Shi.

“I see.” Yun Shi nodded and then said, “If it’s just some sauce, if that young master asks you for it again next time, you can order our servants to send him some, and there’s no need to hide it.”

As long as it was not a private transfer of a woman’s personal belongings, some food was okay.

Wei Ruo didn’t answer, and Wei Qingwan curiously asked Wei Ruo, “Sister, you can make sauce?”

Wei Ruo leaned against the wall of the car and replied lazily, “Many rural women make their own meals and I have learned some from them.”

“Sister, can you teach me how to do it next time? I also want to learn.” Wei Qingwan expressed her desire to learn.

“Sister, you should learn how to be a lady of a noble family and the future head of the house. You don’t need to concern yourself with skills like making sauce. But if you are really curious about this, you can discuss it with the cook at home, they will definitely know this.” Wei Ruo replied.

Qingwan brought it up in front of Yun Shi to make it impossible for her to refuse, and then hoping that she will teach her to make shiitake mushroom sauce? What was she thinking?

“The cook in the mansion is definitely not as skilled as sister. Just now, the young master came from the capital and has tasted many delicious foods. But he praised my sister so much, it must be because the sauce that was made by my sister is outstanding.” Wei Qingwan said.

Wei Ruo said calmly, “Sister, I understand. But I have been busy lately, and I don’t have the time to teach you these things. In fact, the methods of making sauce are basically similar and you can learn from everyone. 

My sauce caught the young master’s eye maybe because the young master has been used to fine cuisine in his daily life, so he felt this rural sauce had a new taste for him.”
