It wasn’t a complicated dish, but it took sincerity and perseverance. Luana carefully chops the vegetables, and it’s done! As the hot steam rose, well-cooked meat and vegetables were seen. The meat melts in her mouth when she takes a piece of meat and bites into it. It wasn’t just meat. It was the same for the vegetables. The ripe, crisp potatoes crumble in the mouth, leaving a savory taste.
“Delicious!”
As she habitually covered her swollen cheeks with her hands and exclaimed, Henry, at the entrance, turned around.
“What’s so delicious?”
He approached and looked into the pot.
“Did you boil the meat?”
“Yes.”
“Hmm. Is it delicious? I prefer to grill it. It doesn’t taste good when boiled.”
“Mine is different. I bet you!”
“Really?”
“Would you like to taste it?”
Henry looked hesitant at Luana’s words.
“Hmm.”
He was curious as he saw Luana shoving the food into her mouth, but he had an experience. Therefore, Henry shook his head with a glum look on his face.
“No, I’ll hold it in.”
“Oh my. It’s so tasty.”
Luana looked at Henry with a pitiful look and began to put the Pot-au-feu into a large pot.
“The meat is delicious, so I put it a lot~ Same goes for the vegetables~.”
After filling the pot and putting the lid on, everything is ready. A chef might add something to this, but Luana thought it was enough.
‘It is that good!’
There was no need for anything else. Was it because she was too excited? Luana did not think of her situation until after placing the pot on the tray.
‘Oh my!’
Last night Luana tried to attack the Duke. She then ran away, and she had never seen his face again. Not only that, the King was executed at dawn. She doesn’t know why, but she thought the drug he handed me may have been the problem. It was true that she wanted to be reborn and live a bright life, but that didn’t stop her from turning her head.
‘And I don’t want to die!’
There were times, she thought, that she could live a rough life and then die. But it was different now. Now she is freed from the bondage of her finances and can make soybean lumps! She couldn’t come and die now!
‘My soybean lumps! I can’t leave my precious child!’
‘So what should I do?’ Luana racked her brain.
‘If I’m out of your sight, you’ll do something. Won’t your anger subside if you don’t see me for a while?’
And in the meantime, Luana serves the most delicious meal possible. She is taming the Duke with food! Then even the most cold-hearted Duke will not be able to cut her throat easily.
Luana nodded.
“Sir Knight.”
She called Henry while clasping her hands together.
“What?”
“Can you bring the meal to the Duke instead?”
“It’s not impossible, but why?”
