Abraham ordered two servings of dishes to go with wine, and got the butler to get two servings of rice from the restaurant next door.
Others came to the tavern to drink.
However, this uncle and niece pair laid out the dishes and rice as though they were here to eat.
The atmosphere in the palace had been a little tense these few days. Vanessa was very intelligent, so Josh's matter naturally couldn't be hidden from her.
Abraham heard that Vanessa had a poor appetite, so he went to the palace to bring her out today to try the dishes in this tavern after tasting them the night before.
"This cold pig's ear and cold pig's tongue looks like Mr. Mak's' husband and wife lung slice '," Vanessa said in surprise as she looked at the two cold dishes in front of her.
Abraham smiled, and said, "Give it a try; it's quite similar to the one I made."
"Really?" Vanessa was in disbelief.
Mr. Mak was the best chef she had ever seen. She didn't think that a small tavern owner could make food comparable to his.
She picked up a piece of pig's ear with her chopsticks. After Mamy's training, she had already abandoned all her prejudices when it came to food.
She didn't despise it just because it was a piece of pig's ear. Instead, she was looking forward to what kind of surprise the pig's ear that she had never tasted before would bring her.
The pig's ear was coated in red chili oil, and the aroma of the crispy oil was already wafting over with the spiciness.
The moment it entered her mouth, the numbness and spiciness exploded.
Vanessa suddenly felt her head buzzing.
It was a familiar feeling!
She bit into the pig's ear with her pearly white teeth. There was a bit of bone in between the soft and delicate skin, and a crunching sound could be heard when she bit into it gently. The chewy texture brought about an interesting chewing experience.
The spiciness and aroma were fully displayed in this mouthful.
Vanessa narrowed her eyes slightly. She felt as though she was back in Chaos City, sitting in Mamy's and tasting a new dish launched by Mr. Mak.
"Phew … It's so spicy!"
Vanessa ate a mouthful of rice, and beads of sweat had already formed on her forehead.
It was this refreshing feeling!
The spiciness was refreshing, but not lingering. The aroma was even better, and made her want to eat more!
"What do you think?" Abraham asked with a smile.
Vanessa swallowed the rice and said with a smile, "I want to go to the kitchen and see if Mr. Mak is cooking inside."
"I checked it yesterday, and it's not there," Abraham said with a smile.
"I didn't expect there to be such an amazing chef in Rodu. Even though he only made three dishes, this pig's ear salad is as delicious as the sliced beef and beef lung slices." Vanessa put a piece of pig's tongue salad into her mouth, and indulged in it again.
Meg didn't really mind if someone brought their own rice. After all, Vanessa wasn't old enough to drink, and this kind of strong alcohol wasn't suitable for her.
He carefully observed for a while, a little worried that they would guess his identity from the dishes.
However, according to his observation, the two of them were obviously more interested in the food.
After eating and drinking to her heart's content, Vanessa's complexion and mood seemed much better.
"Isn't this a little inappropriate?" Vanessa pointed at the bowl in front of her.
Abraham shook his head with a smile, and said, "It's okay, I've already told the boss. We'll clean up our own bowls later."
"Hehe, Uncle Abraham is still the best. You always think of me when you find something delicious." Vanessa looked at Abraham gratefully.
"Of course." Abraham patted his chest with a matter-of-fact expression, and said, "As long as I think it's delicious, I definitely won't forget you."
Vanessa looked around, and leaned closer to Abraham, and whispered, "Then can I take a portion home?"
"You're still not full?"
"No, it's just that Mother hasn't had much of an appetite recently, and I want to bring some appetizers home for her." Vanessa shook her head.
"Alright, then I'll go pack one for you." Abraham stood up and walked to the wine cabinet.
"It's a total of 264 copper coins …" Amy had already done the calculations.
"I also want a bottle of Maotai wine and a portion of each of the three side dishes," Abraham said.
"Alright, please wait a moment." Meg acknowledged from the kitchen, and soon came out with the three side dishes, as well as a bottle of Maotai from the wine cabinet, and handed it to Abraham.
"Thank you, Boss. You can use the rest to buy candy for the children." Abraham took out three dragon coins and handed them to Amy.
"Thank you, Grandpa Fatty." Amy happily accepted the dragon coins. This was super valuable money.
"Goodbye, little friend." Vanessa smiled as she bade farewell to Amy, and stroked Ugly Duckling as she did so.
"Duke Abraham must have a special relationship with the boss of this tavern!"
"Yeah, even Princess Vanessa is so close to that little boss. You can't mess with this little girl, either."
"Not to mention the little girl, even that round thing can't be messed with."
Abraham and Vanessa's actions were seen by the customers present as proof that they had a good relationship with the tavern.
Meg was quite happy with this misjudgment.
It was better to avoid trouble. It felt great to have someone backing him up.
Vanessa was big enough to protect him.
Oh, it was high enough status.
There were three princes in the Roth Empire, but only one princess.
Everyone knew that His Majesty doted on this princess the most. No one would dare to offend her.
"Take care. I won't see you out." Meg helped the last drunk customer out of the tavern, and handed him over to his coachman before closing the tavern's door.
"Phew …"
Meg heaved a long sigh of relief. He actually felt a little like he had just finished working at Amy's.
"Are you looking for a smart waitress?" Irina said with a smile as she walked down the stairs.
"You don't say. I really want to hire one." Meg nodded honestly.
She worked around the clock, ordering and serving the dishes. She also had to work in the kitchen to prepare the dishes and occasionally respond to the strange requests of the customers.
He was really tired.
"Do you think I can do it?" Irina pointed to herself.
"You can't." Meg shook his head with a frown.
"Hmm?"
"You're destined to be the lady boss. It's such a waste for you to be a waitress," Meg said seriously.
"Mm-hmm. Collecting money is quite suitable for me." Irina sat in front of the counter and began to count the day's income.
Meg heaved a sigh of relief for the customers.
He was mainly afraid that Irina would hit the customers' faces with the cold folding chair for no reason.
If things didn't go well, someone might die.
"Father, there's a meteor shower in the sky!" Amy suddenly ran down the stairs and stuck her head out as she exclaimed in surprise.
Meg smiled. "If there's a meteor, you can make a wish at the meteor, and it will come true."
"Really?" Amy's eyes lit up.
"Mm-hmm, of course. Amy can make a wish before the meteor disappears." Meg nodded with a smile.
"Then I'll go now." Amy turned and ran upstairs.
…
"Meteor, please bestow upon me a delicacy that I can never finish nor get tired of!"
The falling meteor swayed, and there were signs of it flying back …
…
"Host confirmed!"
"Life experience system binding …"
