Shocking! The entire court was drooling with envy because of me.

Wang Yueshu came to the morning market to buy vegetables, carrying a basket.

She'd been eating too much meat and fish at home lately and was getting a bit tired of it, so she wanted to buy more fresh vegetables at the morning market.

As soon as she arrived at the morning market, she saw a crowd of people rushing towards the innermost part of the market, some of whom even started running.

A faint, fragrant aroma wafted through the air.

She quickly grabbed one of them: "What's going on? Where are you all going?"

"I can't smell it? There are some young ladies at the morning market, I heard they sell some unusual food, something like 'something something chicken'."

"Didn't you see? Quite a few people are eating as they walk."

"I'm not talking to you anymore, I have to go buy it right away."

The man ran off in a hurry.

Wang Yueshu was taken aback. What exactly were they selling?

What kind of chicken?

Well, since it's a rare delicacy and there are so many people, let's go check it out.

When Wang Yueshu arrived with her basket, she saw a long queue.

The fragrance in the air became even stronger.

It was a domineering, meaty aroma, mixed with the dryness of chili peppers, the numbing sensation of Sichuan peppercorns, a hint of garlic, and even a complex spice flavor that she couldn't quite identify.

"This smells absolutely wonderful."

Wang Yueshu joined the queue without even thinking.

She sniffed the air as she slowly moved forward with the group.

After waiting in line for quite a while, it was finally her turn.

"I'd like two servings of this chicken, how much?"

"There's only one serving of crispy fried chicken left, fifty coins," Shen Qing replied.

She never expected the business to be so booming; in just half an hour, her crispy fried chicken was almost sold out.

The price of fifty coins made Wang Yueshu frown slightly.

To be honest, it's quite tall.

But both her husband's family and her own family are wealthy.

So he took out fifty coins and said, "One serving is fine, give me one serving."

She intended to buy two portions, one for her and one for her husband.

Now, she and her man can only have half of it each.

This fried chicken smells so good, I have to try it.

But the diners behind Wang Yueshu were in a terrible situation; they were all practically drooling with envy.

"I waited in line for so long, and it's all gone..."

"Why wasn't the last one for me?"

"Oh God, I can smell it but I can't eat it, why do I have to suffer like this!"

"..."

They were all crying and wailing.

Compared to this, Wang Yueshu suddenly felt that she was quite lucky.

Having something is better than having nothing.

Shen Qing worked swiftly, putting the fried chicken into the pan, flipping it over, and soon, the golden-brown fried chicken was ready.

The aroma fills the air as soon as the seasoning is sprinkled on.

"Your crispy fried chicken."

Wang Yueshu took the crispy fried chicken and was immediately overwhelmed by its aroma.

Good heavens, she had never smelled this fragrance before. It was so strong and stimulating that it made her mouth water.

I couldn't wait to pick up a piece and put it in my mouth.

Oh my god, it smells amazing!

"How can there be such delicious food in the world?!" she couldn't help but exclaim.

He couldn't help but put the second piece into his mouth.

"Madam, may I buy one to try? Please!"

He was a customer who couldn't buy any fried chicken and couldn't accept the fact that it was gone.

Upon hearing this, the eyes of the other diners who hadn't bought any food lit up:

"I'll offer fifty coins for one of your pieces!"

"I'll offer one hundred coins!"

"Please, please, please sell me a piece, let me taste it!"

"..."

A group of people surrounded Wang Yueshu, all of them looking like reincarnated starving ghosts.

It was as if the crispy fried chicken in Wang Yueshu's arms was some rare treasure.
