The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny Chapter 272

Chapter 272 - It Was All Silver

Xie Qiao looked at the dishes on the table and frowned.

“Didn’t father say that you would help me heal my body?” Xie Qiao’s voice was bitter.

Xie Niushan was stunned, “Yes, isn’t this good?”

Chicken stew, pork knuckles, and wine.

They usually could not afford to eat those!

“Father, do you know that for a weak person like me, if I eat such greasy food, my stomach won’t be able to take it and my body will suffer?” Xie Qiao had a gentle look on her face as she handed over a list, “Take a look. This is what I normally eat.”

Xie Niushan did not pay much attention and took the list to have a look.

With one look, one could squish a fly between his eyebrows.

“Buddha roll fish fillet, exquisite bird? What are these?” Xie Niushan was stunned for a moment.

“Buddha roll fish fillet is actually fried fish fillet. It’s just that this fish fillet has to be marinated with abalone juice, and it has been specially processed. After being cooked, the fish fillet curled up like a flower, light and delicious. The exquisite bird is actually a pheasant, but… it needs to be stewed with a few kinds of wild mushrooms,” Xie Qiao explained.

Xie Niushan nodded, indicating that he understood.

Then, he continued reading.

“A first-grade birds nest? You want a cup of it every day?” Xie Niushan shouted in surprise, “Prosperity sea cucumber, ginseng stew, double-skinned milk, arhat prawn, eight treasures deer meat… what are these? Medicinal pills?”

Xie Niushan was really shocked.

The list was filled with the names of the dishes.

Just looking at it made one’s heart ache. It was so appetizing!

He had never been particular about food. As long as there was meat and rice, it was fine as long as his stomach was filled.

However, Xie Qiao’s list was different. In this month’s list, other than some things like ginseng, tremella, and birds nest that were repeated, almost all of the dishes were brand new.

Where did so many dishes come from?

No matter how blind he was, he could still tell that those were not dishes. They were clearly silver!

Just this grade of birds nest cost several taels of silver a day. In addition, the tremella and ginseng were also very expensive, so she had to eat them often…

That was not all, what was important was the pill.

He did not know if it was made of gold, but it was written on the top that it had to be at least ten times a month, and each pill was worth 30 taels!

Thirty taels for a pill? Was his daughter sure that she had not been cheated?!

Xie Niushan said solemnly, “My daughter, if you eat like this…”

“Father can’t afford it, can you?” Xie Qiao was about to cry when she heard that, “When I was in the Taoist temple, Master was also poor, but he saved up a lot of pills for me, which allowed me to grow until now…”

Xie Niushan’s heart skipped a beat.

“That annoying old Taoist master… raised you like this?” Xie Niushan was shocked.

It was too scary.

How much money did he have to spend this month?

Judging from the food and drinks, he would not be able to afford it without 400 to 500 taels of silver a month!

“Yes, Master said that since I was young, I was weak and fainted several times a day. I had to take some supplements so that my Yang energy would be strong and I wouldn’t get sick. There are several herbs in these pills to supplement Yang energy. The prescription was made by Master. After buying the herbs, I had to decoct the herbs and make the pills myself. Oh right, there’s also a piece of gold foil in there. I can’t grind it. I have to buy it from the store,” Xie Qiao added.

The moment Xie Niushan heard about the gold foil, he knew how powerful this pill was.

How hard was it to smash this gold foil? The craftsmanship was complicated, so the price was naturally high.

Xie Niushan felt a little guilty.

This girl ate like this in the Taoist temple. If she could not eat such good food at home, would it not appear that his father was not as good as that annoying Taoist master?
