After dinner, Anna walked into the kitchen with a large bag of bird's nose mushrooms. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

These white mushrooms were harvested by Maisie from the Hidden Forest - unlike ordinary mushrooms, bird's nose mushrooms usually grow on the tops of large trees, feed on the nutrients of the trees, and are a favorite food for some birds. Although it has an extremely delicious flavor and a fat umbrella handle that is as delicate as tender meat, it is difficult to detect it from below because of its high growth position, and there are not many people who are willing to climb up the trees to find and pick it.

On her birthday, her mother would always pick some of them and make two mushroom dishes to celebrate her birthday, a unique taste that she will never forget compared to the moldy coarse bread and the bland wheat porridge. Although she no longer has to worry about not having enough to eat, and the food is much more abundant every day, she still wants to make these two delicious dishes that can only be tasted in the small town of the Westlands by herself, and share them with His Highness Roland, who has been busy every day late.

The stove in the kitchen had gone out, but it didn't bother Anna, so she threw the wood into the stove and summoned a black fire, and soon the fire in the hearth was blazing vigorously.

At that moment, the nightingale suddenly burst out of the wall, "Hey, what are you doing?"

"I want to make something to eat for Your Highness, he has been sleeping late lately. What about you?"

"Ahaha," she touched the back of her head, "I just wanted to get some snacks...... I'm a little hungry," she paused, and she looked over curiously, "What are you going to do?"

"Hmm...... Honey-roasted mushrooms and mushroom soup" Anna opened her baggage, revealing the bird's snout mushroom inside, "It's all a unique food in the border town, do you want to try it?"

Nightingale nodded, and quickly continued, "Can you teach me how to do it...... I want to learn to do this too. ”

"Yes," Anna laughed, "it's easy." ”

After slicing the mushrooms, she grabbed a handful and gave them to the nightingale, "first spread a layer of butter evenly on both sides of the mushrooms, and then put them on the fire and roast them carefully until they are golden brown on both sides." Be careful not to bake it for too long, it will be charred. ”

"Well," Nightingale took the bird's snout mushroom slice and greased both sides in Anna's example, "Your Highness has been working late late?"

"Yes, in order to house the refugees and make some drawings of the new machinery, he didn't sleep until midnight almost every day. Several times when I passed by the office, I could see the light shining through the cracks in the door. Anna nodded, "You've been away for almost half a month, and you miss Your Highness very much, right?"

The nightingale's hand shook slightly, and the mushroom fell into the butter, "Uh...... Actually, it's okay......"

"It's not just you, Lightning, Lily, Echo, and Wendy miss Your Highness very much, they said that there is no place to take a bath, and they have long wanted to come back," Anna suddenly felt that the other party's expression was a little strange, "Huh, what's wrong?"

"No," she shook her head, picking up the mushrooms, and smiled a little embarrassedly, "I see, indeed...... I miss it. ”

"Yes," Anna pinched the oiled mushroom in her hand and leaned into the fire, "If I leave His Highness for more than half a month, no, maybe in a few days, I can't wait to see him again." ”

Meeting Roland Wimbledon in the dungeon was one of the most incredible moments of her life, and she still feels warm and grateful to look back on it today. If it weren't for His Highness, even if she could continue to live, she would only live in ignorance and confusion, just like those numb townspeople.

It was His Highness who taught her the beauty of this world, whether it was a pepper steak with sauce or "Foundations of Natural Science", and his appearance filled her life with something new, making her feel that she was no longer like anyone else, but a unique witch.

The other sisters must have thought the same - it was impossible not to fall into his whimsy and unique charm after spending a long time with His Highness, and Anna was convinced of this.

"Ah, have I been roasting this for too long?" the nightingale lifted the iron fork, and the mushroom side had turned browned.

"It's a little ......," she couldn't help but laugh out loud, "the mushrooms are very delicate, so the barbecue time must be no more, no less, and you can master it after a few more attempts." I start by preparing the ingredients for the stew. ”

Nightingale dipped the slightly mushy mushroom in honey and salt and threw it into her mouth, "Well, it's delicious." Looking at the girl who skillfully blended various blades of grass and ingredients, she asked curiously, "Did you use to make this before?"

"Well, pickling food, grinding wheat flour, doing a short job for the nobles, bathing and shaving the neighbors' sheep," said Anna, "I spend most of my time doing these things except going to Mr. Karl's academy." She paused, "But after my mother died, my father never let me go to the academy again, and didn't even allow me to leave the house. ”

"Sorry......"

"It's nothing, it's all gone," Anna's eyes sparkled like a blue lake in the moonlight, "I'm one of the lucky ones compared to the logarithmic witch, aren't I?"

The greased mushroom slices rolled up slightly under the flames with a slight crackling sound. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and bake it twice, and the milky flavor of the butter is mixed with the unique flavor of the bird's nose mushroom. Finally, you will make a circle in the honey jar and you will complete a slice of roasted mushrooms. Both the mushrooms themselves and honey can be harvested from the Hidden Forest, and it would be a lucky day for the locals to cut down a tree that has both a hive and a mushroom at the top.

When the crockpot used for the stew spewed out a puff of white gas, the two also finished roasting and seasoning their respective mushrooms.

"That's it, at least it looks good," Nightingale slipped another piece into her mouth, "I have a talent for cooking...... Poof, this piece seems a little salty. ”

"It's about the right time," Anna said, glancing out the window at the night, "let's send it to Your Highness." ”

"Please, give it to him for me," she said, clasping her hands together, "please." ”

"Aren't you going with me?"

"No," she laughed, "because I don't know what kind of expression I'm going to look at him now." ”

Anna was stunned, and before she could ask what this sentence meant, she disappeared into thin air. Is it important to smile, be depressed, or be expressionless? Even when she had just come out of prison, and she had lost faith in everything and had lost all her thoughts, she did not bore His Highness, so why should she avoid it? She thought for a while and could not understand it, so she shook her head and walked towards the office by herself with a plate and a soup bowl. (To be continued.) )
