"Sea cucumber powder is the most expensive, followed by kelp powder and shiitake mushroom powder."

By adjusting the proportions of the ingredients, we can produce MSG products at different price points, allowing more people to enjoy this delicious food.

"Good, good, good! May I borrow Brother Su's kitchen? I would like to personally guide my junior sister in selecting the best recipe."

Song Qing nodded repeatedly, as eagerly as if he were pounding garlic.

Chapter 193 Xu Lingyue visits relatives, the cook chats

"Senior brother, please go back. The refining of MSG is not much different from cooking, and it is far less complicated than your alchemy. I can handle it myself."

Chu Caiwei decisively rejected Song Qing's guidance, causing Song Qing's originally enthusiastic expression to plummet.

For Song Qing, who is keen on exploring new things, how could she easily miss such an opportunity to develop new products?

"Junior sister, if you encounter any doubts or questions, I am always willing to help you."

Chu Caiwei shook her head slightly, her tone firm, "No need to worry, Su Nan will help us, and there are many servants here."

Song Qing pleaded earnestly, "I'm willing to lend a hand, to light the fire and wash the tiles..."

"Senior brother, what's wrong with you? Why have you become so long-winded? Go back and continue your alchemy practice."

Faced with Chu Caiwei's firm refusal, Song Qing turned his gaze intently to Su Nan and said urgently, "Brother Su, what do you think..."

Su Nan speculated that Song Qing was quite creative in alchemy and had an extremely active mind, while Chu Caiwei was probably worried about her senior brother's interference.

"Please wait a moment, Brother Song. He will stand by and watch until your plan is fully formed, then he can give it a try."

Chu Caiwei gently stroked her chin, pondered for a moment, and then said:

"Yes, Senior Brother Song, you have to promise me you won't bother me!"

Song Qing instantly switched to a docile, puppy-dog-like demeanor, "Alright, alright, I'll obey my junior sister's orders."

Xu Lingyue will visit her relatives in a few days.

As night fell, she stepped into the kitchen with a small jar in her hand. Before she even entered, she heard several cooks chatting idly.

"At first, I was completely baffled when the master sent the young lady to serve as a maid."

After all, for someone of such status to have to condescend to serve others, only now do I realize that the master, as an official, is indeed farsighted and far-sighted.

Another cook in charge of starting the fire agreed:

"Indeed, Su Zhexian's residence is located in the inner city. It's a magnificent mansion with six courtyards! Six courtyards! It's worth fifteen thousand taels of silver!"

The outer city of the capital was inhabited by many ordinary people, while the inner city became the exclusive domain of high-ranking officials and nobles, making it the ideal place of residence that the residents of the outer city dreamed of.

"At first, the lady did not approve of this, but nowadays she seems to be increasingly fond of Miss Show-off."

The cook, who was chopping vegetables, couldn't help but exclaim, "Indeed, Su Zhexian's reputation is so illustrious. He has achieved extraordinary things at such a young age and is very wealthy. I heard that his assets are as high as a million taels of silver. My God, it's unbelievable!"

The cook, who was in charge of the cooking, said excitedly:

"Furthermore, Su Zhexian has not yet taken a wife! If Miss can be with him, she will have a unique advantage."

"Even though he took in a strong man from the brothel, compared to the young lady's refined and otherworldly background, it's like comparing heaven and earth (Li, Wang, and Zhao). This shows that the master's judgment is indeed exceptionally sharp."

"That so-called 'Queen' may not be as beautiful as Miss. Even if Miss did not take the initiative, if she had entrusted herself to me, she would have already shared a bed with Su Zhexian."

"Why do you need to say more? Perhaps, right now, Miss is sharing a bed with Su Zhexian..."

Xu Lingyue stood outside the door, listening quietly to the gossip, without feeling the slightest bit annoyed, because most of it was not malicious.

Chapter 194 Unique Recipe, with an irresistible aroma

"Cough cough..."

A crisp cough broke the silence, and the cooks immediately resumed their rhythm of busy work intertwined with tranquility.

"Oh, Miss is back."

"Miss is becoming more and more beautiful."

"Miss, how can you go into the kitchen?"

The cooks, some surprised and some delighted, chatted with Xu Lingyue.

Xu Lingyue took out a small jar of flavor enhancer. "This was a gift from Su Zhexian. I came here to lend you a hand and help you cook a delicious meal together."

Although Su Nan never explicitly said so, Xu Lingyue knew perfectly well that this was a secret recipe that should never be easily passed on.

However, if such delicious food were left in the kitchen, there was a risk that the cooks might secretly take it away. Therefore, only a small amount was added during cooking, and the remaining 583 pieces were entrusted to Li Ru for safekeeping, which made me feel most at ease.

The women in the kitchen were filled with curiosity, but they knew nothing about the rare items Xu Lingyue had brought back, so they continued to work diligently.

Xu Lingyue held the position of mistress, while the cooks were merely servants, who naturally had no control over their mistress's behavior.

Not to mention, Xu Lingyue has gradually occupied a supreme position in the family, and even her voice has surpassed that of Xu Pingzhi.

As the first dish... Kung Pao Chicken was about to be cooked, Xu Lingyue gently scooped up a spoonful of MSG and skillfully added it to the dish.

(bfda) Afterwards, she picked up a small piece of meat and savored it carefully, nodding slightly in satisfaction. Indeed, this was the most delicious dish she had tasted in the past two days.

The cook in the kitchen witnessed this scene, took a bite, and immediately widened her eyes, almost forgetting her duty of cooking.

The aroma was familiar to her, but the chicken was several times more delicious than before; even the finest broth could not match its flavor.

"This is absolutely delicious, unbelievable! I actually cooked this myself! I can't believe I have such culinary skills..."

The other cooks also tasted the food and unanimously agreed that the cook with the superb cooking skills was fully qualified to be the head chef of Guiyue Restaurant.

As dishes such as braised crucian carp, vinegar-braised pork ribs, and scrambled eggs with chives are about to be served, Xu Lingyue always sprinkles a little MSG into them.

The cooks finally sensed something was amiss and realized that the extraordinary flavor enhancer that made the ingredients taste so delicious was MSG, a flavor enhancer that Xu Lingyue had brought back.

“Your Excellency, this MSG was brought from the depths of the palace. Its unique flavor is probably only something that the most distinguished people in the palace can appreciate.”

Xu Lingyue smiled gently. This kind of delicacy was something even the princesses in the palace could hardly taste, and Princess Lin'an couldn't wait to go to Sunan Prefecture every day.

Consort Chen was confined to her quarters and therefore unable to leave the house.

Xu Lingyue specially left a spoonful for the cooks, so they could add as much as they wanted when cooking.

"Everyone may wish to try it first. Before long, MSG will appear on the market."

The cooks thanked them profusely, but what they were all thinking was that even if it were available, how could they possibly afford it?

At the dinner table, Xu Pingzhi gently twitched his nostrils and exclaimed in admiration:

"The dishes today smell wonderful."

Little Pudding Xu Lingyin sat playfully on Xu Lingyue's lap, her little chopsticks already gently extended, and she couldn't help but drool.

"Snapped!"

Xu Lingyue gently pressed down on the chopsticks in Xiaobuding's hand and said earnestly:

"My mother and brother have not arrived yet."

Little Pudding's eyes widened, and she gently put down her chopsticks. Xu Pingzhi also slowly lowered the chopsticks he had just raised.

Chapter 195 A Unique Gentleman, Endless Warmth

Recently, Xu Lingyue's status in the family has risen significantly, and her words have become increasingly weighty. This is all because the allowance given to her by Su Nan is more than twice the salary of her seventh-rank official position!

Economic foundation determines family status.

Upon arriving at the scene, Li Ru and Xu Xinnian immediately noticed that the dishes were quite different today. Li Ru tentatively picked up a piece of fish and was immediately amazed by its uniqueness.

"I didn't expect it to taste this good... Did they change cooks? Did they hire a new one?"

Xu Xinnian picked up a piece of chicken and muttered to himself:

"That's a bit of an exaggeration."

However, after only a few bites, he couldn't wait to grab his chopsticks and scramble with others to take them.

The dishes remained the same, yet they were so fresh and delicious, like a refreshing spring that instantly awakened the taste buds, leaving a strong and unforgettable impression.

A loud cry rang out from the Xu family.

“All gone…”

"I'm hungry, waaaah!"

Xu Lingyin's arms were short, and before she could finish her meal, the dishes on the table were quickly devoured by her.

Xu Xinqing gently stroked his slightly protruding belly, then lightly patted Xu Lingyin's head.

"Don't cry. The way of a gentleman is not about satisfying one's hunger. At this moment, you are the only gentleman in our family."

Xu Lingyin was in tears, her nose almost bubbling with snot. Seeing that her whole family had finished their meal and were still savoring the lingering taste, her cries became even more heart-wrenching.

Xu Qi'an, who was cooking at his neighbor's house, was immersed in the enticing aroma, but the sound of a baby crying made him increasingly irritable and restless.

"Stop crying! Stop crying!"

"Enjoying such delicious food, yet still shedding tears, truly unaware of the blessings one has."

In less than half a month, five different grades of MSG have appeared in the Beijing market.

The price difference between the five levels actually stems from the adjustment of the proportions of sea cucumber powder, kelp powder, and shiitake mushroom powder, resulting in each having its own unique flavor-enhancing effect.

Given the price differences that cater to the needs of people from different social classes, Chu Caiwei's promotion to alchemist is almost a foregone conclusion.

In the palace.

Beside Huaiqing, palace maids surrounded Chu Caiwei, carrying food boxes, as they gracefully entered.

"Your Highness, I brought some delicious food!"

Huaiqing had already seen through the changes in Sunan Prefecture. She stared into Chu Caiwei's eyes, her expression revealing a complex emotion that was hard to describe.

Southern Jiangsu is like a furnace in the sweltering summer, bringing endless warmth to the women around it.

He recited poems about floating fragrance, assisted Chu Caiwei in refining elixirs, offered strategies for himself, and guided the young people of Lin'an in the art of shuttlecock kicking...

Why was he so popular? Huaiqing couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

After a moment's thought, she understood a principle: if even she herself was moved by him, then the man must be someone else's darling.

"Your Majesty, there are currently five types of MSG on the market. In addition, we have several more types here, all of which were recently developed by Senior Brother Song Qing."
