Chapter 239:Midnight Snack

After dinner, Anna went into the kitchen with a large bag of bird-kissing mushrooms.

These white mushrooms are all from the hidden forest - unlike ordinary mushrooms, birds and mushrooms usually grow on the top of huge trees, relying on the nourishment of sucking trees, and are also the favorite food of some birds.Although its taste is extremely delicious and fat, the thick umbrella handle is as delicate as tender meat, but because of the high growth position, it is difficult to detect standing below, and there are not many people who are willing to climb up to find picking.

And her mother will always take some more or less on the day of her birthday, to make two mushroom dishes to celebrate the birthday, compared to the musty coarse bread and the faint and tasteless porridge, the unique taste makes it difficult for her to forget.Although she no longer has to worry about not having enough food, and the daily food is much abundant, she still wants to make these two delicious things that can only be tasted in the western town, and share them with Her Royal Highness Roland, who has been busy every day recently.

The stove in the kitchen had been extinguished, but it was hard to fail Anna, and she threw the firewood into the stove and called out the black fire, and soon the fire in the hearth was burning.

At this moment, the nightinge suddenly came out of the wall and said, “What are you doing?”

“I want to make some food for my lord, who has been sleeping late lately.And you?”

"Ah haha," she touched the back of her head, "I just wanted to find some snacks to eat... a little hungry," and suddenly, her curious probe came, "what are you going to do?"

"Well... honey roasted mushrooms and mushroom soup," Anna opened the burden, revealing the bird kissing the mushrooms inside, "are all unique to the border town, do you want to try it?" 」

The Nightingeon nodded and quickly added, "Can you teach me to do it... I want to learn to do this too."

"Yes," laughed Anna, "it's easy."

After slicing the mushrooms, she grabbed a large sum and divided it to the nightingale, "first apply a layer of butter evenly on both sides of the mushroom, and then put it on the fire and carefully baked until the two sides are golden."Be careful not to bake for too long, it will be black."

"Well," said the Nightingale, taking the bird's kiss mushroom, and learning that Anna's appearance would be greased on both sides, "Your Highness has been working late lately?"

"Yes, in order to resettle the refugees, and to draw some drawings of new machinery, he hardly went to bed almost every day after midnight.Several times when I passed the office, I could see the light under the door.”Anna nodded, “You’ve been gone for almost half a month, and you miss your Highness, don’t you?”

The nightingeers shook slightly, and the mushrooms fell into the butter, “Oh, it’s actually okay...”

"It's not just you, the lightning, Lily, the echo, Wendy, they miss your Highness, they say there is not even a place to bathe, they want to come back," Anna suddenly felt the other's look strange, "huh, what's the matter?" 」

"No," she said, picking up the mushrooms, and smiled a little embarrassed. "That's it, it's true... I miss it."

"Yes," said Anna, poking into the fire, with her hand-coated mushrooms, "if I leave your Highness for most of a month, no, perhaps in a few days I can't wait to see him again."

Meeting Roland Wimbledon in the dungeon was the most incredible moment of her life, and in retrospect, she still felt warm and grateful in her heart.If it were not for Her Highness, she would live only in obscurity and confusion, just like those numb townspeople.

It was His Highness who had taught her the beauty of the world, whether it was a pepper-ducked steak full of sauce or The Theoretical Foundations of Natural Science, that his appearance filled a new thing for her life, making her feel that she was no longer like everyone else, but a unique witch.

The other sisters must have thought so too—and as long as they had been with His Highness, it would be impossible not to fall into his whimsical and unique charms, and Anna was convinced of this.

“Have I been cooking for too long?”The nightingebler lifts the iron fork, and the mushroom side has become charred yellow.

"A little..." she couldn't help but laugh, "birds kissing mushrooms is very delicate, so the barbecue time must be no more and no less, you can try a few times to master."I'll get the stew the soup ready first."

The nightingale smeared the slightly pasted mushrooms with honey and salt and threw them into his mouth, "Well, it's delicious."Looking at the girl who was skilled in blending all kinds of grass leaves and ingredients together, she asked curiously, “Have you used to do this?”

“Well, pickle food, grind wheat flour, go short-do work for the nobility, bathe and scrape the sheep of the neighbors,” said Anna. “Except for the class at Mr. Carl’s college, he spends most of his time doing these things.”She paused, "but after my mother died, my father never let me go to college, and I was not even allowed to leave the house."

“I am sorry...”

"It's all over," said Anna, with her eyes wiping, like a blue lake in the moonlight, "I'm a very lucky one compared to the big log witch, isn't I?"

The mushrooms with grease are slightly rolled up under the flame, making a slight crackling sound.Sprinkle with a few salt grains, after two roasts, you can already smell the fresh aroma of the nose, and the milky smell emitted by the butter after heating is mixed with the unique taste of bird-kissing mushrooms, which makes people salivate.Finally, turn around in the honey jar, even if you have finished making a piece of roasted mushrooms.Whether it is the bird-kissing mushrooms themselves or honey, they can be collected from the hidden forest, and for the locals, if they just saw a hive at the top of the tree when logging, there is a big tree with a bird-kissing mushroom, it is a very lucky day.

When the tiles of stew soup spewing a white gas, the two also completed their own mushroom roasting and seasoning.

"It's done, at least it looks good," said the Nightingale, adding another piece of it to her mouth. "I have a lot of cooking talent... Oh, this one seems a little salty."

"The time is almost right," said Anna, looking out of the window at night, "and we'll send it to your Highness."

"Please help me with him," she said, clasping her hands, "please."

“Aren’t you going with me?”

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

Anna staggered, and did not wait to ask the meaning of the sentence, for convenience disappeared directly into the air.What kind of face is important?Smiling, depressed, or faceless.Even if he had just come out of prison, he had lost confidence in anything and looked like it when he was in prison, and he did not bore his Highness, why should he avoid it?She thought for a moment and could not understand, so she shook her head and put a plate and soup bowl and walked to the office.(Unfinished.
