Chapter 739: The princess wakes up ——2
" This smells really good," Magistrate Li did not expect that a small mushroom will smell this good, she looked down at the grill on which the mushrooms were getting grilled and then turned to look at Yu Dong who was smiling at her with a cheeky grin on her face.
Her grin had a mysterious glint to it only made them feel more excited as they all watched Yu Dong turn the pieces of the mushroom on the other side such that, they were grilled to perfection.
The matsutake mushrooms turned a beautiful shade of golden brown while feeling the entire room with their scents even Qiao Shao who was not looking forward to eating them looked at the golden-looking toasty mushrooms and also swallowed a mouthful of water as she continued to stare at the glowing ambers upon which the mushrooms were sitting upon.
Her gulp was heard by Jiang Fenhua who looked at her with a proud smirk, and Qiao Sha who caught him smirking looked up from the grill with a stubborn expression before she raised her brow and said haughtily, " What?"
" Nothing, just watching," Jiang Fenhua replied before turning to look at Yu Dong, he was really lucky that he befriended Yu Dong. If not for her then he would've never been able to receive such admiration-filled glances.

His paternal family was just a family of small officials they were sent to the borders when his grandmother made a mistake, it was one of the reasons why his father was never favoured by his mother in the Jiang family. If it was before, he would have asked the kitchen to cook these things without even understanding their values and would have eaten them without even thinking about it much.
But because his grandmother insisted that it was a good thing and was really rare, and they only got it by chance from the travellers who were crossing the borders, he brought it to Yu Dong thinking that she will be able to make use of it somehow.
Who would have thought that what he did without even thinking properly would really bring him something so grand?
" Can we eat it?" Chen Mi asked as he tried to hold back Yu Mai who was stretching his hands to the grill trying to get the pieces of the matsutake mushrooms that were still getting grilled. He looked at the drooling Yu Mai who was looking at the mushrooms with shiny eyes and knew that there was no way that the children will be able to stop themselves from eating the pieces that were sitting atop the grill.
" Just a few more minutes," said Yu Dong as she watched the mushrooms that were getting roasted. " For us to taste it to perfection we need to wait a little more."
She only got one chance to eat these matsutake mushrooms and that too when she was very young. It must have been when her grandmother did a meritorious deed and was gifted a big box of these prized mushrooms that she brought home.
Back then scientists found a way to create spores of these matsutake mushrooms and thus, they were able to grow them in a protected space but because it took a lot of energy and time, these were sold at a rather high price.
If only she awakened her powers back then, Yu Dong would have grown these things with ease but she was just a child back then. As she grew up this small fact always stayed as a knot in her heart because she could never forget the taste of these mushrooms.
Who would have thought that she would be able to taste it now?
" All right, we can eat them now!" Her words met with cheers from the people in the room as they all picked up their chopsticks and ate a piece after picking it from the grill.
"This is so good!"
" It tastes just as delicious as it smells!"
" I did not think this ugly thing will taste so nice."
Yu Dong heard the exclamations from all over the room and felt rather proud, she picked up the last piece that was on the grill and was just going to eat it when she heard a voice say, " What are you eating? It tastes nice." Follow current s on novelenglish.net . Fɪre.net

" Eh, little tiger you are up?" Chen Mi was the first one to speak as he looked at the young girl who had been unconscious till now standing in front of his wife.
" Should we call a doctor?" Ye Liu asked as he looked at the young girl who was looking at the mushroom piece that was held by Yu Dong's chopsticks. He was worried that the girl was rather sick or else why will she continue to sleep for days?
Shen Li hesitated and was just going to agree when the little girl said, " I am fine, benefactor. I am just hungry," she then turned to look at Yu Dong and said, " I am hungry benefactor."
In the past few days, the little girl continued to sneak into the kitchen and eat the leftovers but today when she heard that the thing they were all cooking was limited and did not have much stock, the little girl could only 'wake up.'
Yu Dong was stunned at the polite and fluent speech of the young girl, she offered the last piece of mushroom to the young girl who ate it with relish. Because Yu Dong was fixated on the girl, she did not notice the faint shock in the eyes of Magistrate Li as she looked at the young girl standing next to Yu Dong.
The princess was here?
