Chapter 819

It was said to be a simple meal, but the old man and the old woman had prepared a sumptuous meal. They had slaughtered a chicken in their yard and cooked a large pot of chicken soup, releasing a fragrant smell.

There were also several farm dishes that were colourful and pleasing to the eye, making people want to eat them.

Mo Chuan picked up his chopsticks and stared at a dish on the table. He asked, "Old woman, what is this dish? I've never seen it before. "

He lived in the royal palace, living a luxurious life, eating countless delicacies in the world, but facing a normal farm table dish, he was filled with surprise.

The old uncle and the old woman were stunned. When they were about to reply, Chen Ning had already said, "You don't recognize this dish? This dish has a very nice sounding name. "

"What nice sounding name?" Mo Chuan turned to look at her.

She replied in a serious voice, "This dish is called: Gold Inlaid White Jade Plate, Red Beaked Green Parrot Brother."

Mo Chuan repeated, "Gold Inlaid White Jade Plate, Red Beaked Green Parrot Brother?"

This name was indeed special and pleasant to listen to. Moreover, it looked more and more like this dish. The white jade plate thing had a golden glow on the four sides and a snow white center. Wasn't this the Gold Inlaid White Jade Plate?

As for the Red Beaked Green Parrot Brother, it was a vegetable. With its red roots and emerald green leaves, it really did look like a green parrot with a red beak.

"Good name, good name! I think the taste shouldn't be wrong. "Mo Chuan praised.

The old woman gave an "aiyo" sound and began to laugh.

"What White Jade Plate, Green Parrot Brother, this little miss is truly interesting. This dish is the most normal one, it's Spinach Tofu. Could it be you two have never eaten it before?" She looked at Mo Chuan in a strange manner.

Spinach Tofu!

Mo Chuan's face turned red to his ears and he glared at Chen Ning.

She was becoming more and more daring!

She was actually playing tricks on him, making him look like a fool in front of these two old men. Let's see how he will take care of her.

Chen Ning laughed until she rubbed her stomach, not being able to stand up straight.

She had once read such a joke in a book. It was about an emperor who was traveling incognito. Halfway through the journey, he was caught in the rain and stayed at a farmer's house. He had a simple meal, and on the table was this spinach roasted tofu dish. The emperor didn't know what it was, but he thought it was delicious. When he asked the farmer for the name of the dish, the farmer made up a name: "Gold Inlaid with White Jade, Red Beaked Green Parrot".

Later, when the emperor returned to the palace, he couldn't forget about this dish. He ordered the imperial chefs to make the same dish. The imperial chefs had never heard of a white jade plate or a green parrot. They were so anxious that their hair turned white. Later, after much difficulty, they found out that the dish came from a farmer. They invited the farmer into the palace to make this dish.

The Emperor saw that the dish was exactly the same as the one he had eaten before and was extremely happy. However, after taking a bite, he revealed a look of disappointment and refused to take a second bite.

Because the taste of this dish was ordinary, he didn't know that he was hungry at that time, so he took this simple peasant dish as the most delicious delicacy in the world.

Chen Ning had thought that this was just a joke, but she never thought that this kind of thing would actually happen in front of her.

Thinking of Mo Chuan's believing expression, she laughed until her stomach hurt.
