150 Coconut Sugar
Yu Niaoniao’s heart skipped a beat. This was a deadly question.
Her mind raced and she quickly gave an answer.
“My stepfather likes to make friends with guests from all over. He’s received caravans from the south. I’ve heard those merchants talk about a few ways to eat coconut and have always been interested in this thing. I didn’t expect to see it with my own eyes today. In the end, it’s all thanks to Duke Lang.”
Towards the end, she looked a little shy and blushed.
Xiao Juan had sent someone to investigate her background and knew that what she said was true. Her stepfather, Feng Lianghan, was not only knowledgeable but also hospitable. He had a good relationship with many people and was quite famous in Bashu.
Even the emperor had heard of Feng Lianghan’s reputation and had the intention of recruiting him as an official.
Something like receiving a Southern caravan was something that Feng Lianghan was completely capable of doing.
After dinner, Yu Niaoniao asked someone to bring two coconuts.
She split the coconut with her knife and poured the coconut juice into a bowl.
“Please enjoy, Your Highness.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtXiao Juan picked up the bowl and took a sip.
It tasted sweet but not greasy. It was best used to quench one’s thirst after a meal.
Yu Niaoniao also poured herself a bowl of coconut juice.
She sat beside Xiao Juan, holding the bowl and drinking slowly.
Finishing her coconut juice, she returned to digging for coconut meat.
This was hard work. After digging for a while, she started to feel her arms ache.
Seeing this, Xiao Juan took the spoon from her hand.
He had practiced martial arts all year round and was very strong. In just a few moments, he had emptied the coconut.
Yu Niaoniao eagerly pinched a piece of fruit and stuffed it into her mouth.
The coconut meat was soft and tender and had a rich coconut fragrance.
She picked up another piece of coconut meat and brought it to Xiao Juan’s mouth.
“Try it too.”
Xiao Juan opened his thin lips and bit the coconut meat.
Unintentionally, his lips brushed against her fingertips.
Yu Niaoniao did not notice this moment of contact and continued to eat the coconut meat with relish.
XIao Juan’s gaze lingered on her fingertips for a long time.
The soft touch on his lips seemed to linger for a long time. He felt his heart stir.
Yu Niaoniao asked him if he still wanted to eat.
Xiao Juan was still thinking about the touch just now and could not help but agree.
“Yeah.”
Yu Niaoniao pushed another coconut in front of him. “Then dig out this coconut too.”
Free labor. It was a waste not to use it.
Xiao Juan was silent. So that was why she had asked him specifically if he wanted to eat.
He picked up his spoon and quickly emptied the second coconut.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYu Niaoniao pinched a piece of coconut pulp and placed it in her mouth, eating with relish.
She asked curiously when the man did not move.
“Why aren’t you eating?”
Xiao Juan looked at her silently for a while. Seeing that she really had no intention of feeding him again, he could only pick up his chopsticks and put a piece of fruit into his mouth.
He wasn’t sure if it was his imagination, but the pulp wasn’t as sweet as it had been.
After eating two coconuts, Yu Niaoniao still felt unsatisfied.
She ran to the kitchen again and cooked a pot of syrup with coconut juice and pulp, cow’s milk, and malt sugar.
The syrup was poured into the mold and placed in the icehouse.
After doing this, Yu Niaoniao went back to sleep.
When she woke up the next day, she went to the icehouse to take out the sugar and remove the mold. The small coconut candies were ready!
She gave some of the coconut candy to Dang Gui and put the rest in a paper bag.
When she went out, Xiao Juan saw that Yu Niaoniao was carrying a big bulging paper bag in her arms. He knew that she must have brought food out today.
He had probably gotten used to it after so many times. He decided not to even say anything.
Anyway, even if he did, she wouldn’t listen.
