"After eating this dumpling, I actually felt a little hungry again!
"Didn't you just say you were only going to eat one? Don't give the rest to others.
"We are sisters, I certainly can't look down on you, I'll eat it for you."
After Princess Rui finished speaking, she reached out to take Madam Qin's bowl.
Mrs. Qin still had dumplings in her mouth and couldn't speak, but her hand still pressed on her bowl uncontrollably.
For a moment, both of them froze.
After all, given their identities and relationships, if they were to fight over a bowl of dumplings, it would be laughable if the news got out.
The servants in the room also hurriedly lowered their heads, especially those who had just eaten dumplings. The happier they were eating just now, the lower their heads were now, as if they wished they could dive into the cracks in the ground.

"Master, these are the dumplings that Mr. Cen just sent over. He made them himself.
"Although the delivery was a little late, our grandfather was worried that the dumplings would become stale if left out for too long, so he had them cooked quickly and distributed everywhere."
Qin Songyin was so pleased to hear that his youngest son was so thoughtful and caring about him, and most importantly, that he had even made a special contribution for his eldest son. He quickly said, "Old Master Cen's cooking skills are beyond reproach. It's getting harder and harder to eat food made by him these days.
