Chapter 25 Invitation
"Second Miss, take a look, are these plum petals enough?" Qingying walked into the small kitchen, holding a small basin of fresh plum petals, and asked Yuan Ziyu with a smile!
Yuan Ziyou took a look and said with a smile: "That's enough!"
Then, he picked up a small bowl of sauce and said, "I made this. Use it to marinate these petals!"
"yes!"
The past two days have been very peaceful, and nothing unusual has happened in the second house. Because it was before the New Year, Mrs. Liu was busy taking care of the household chores and had no time to rest. So, Yuan Ziyu had nothing to do, so he thought of making some food for Madam Yuan and Mrs. Liu!
In her spare time these days, she drank the spring water from the Qiongjiang Pavilion several times. When she practiced boxing and kicking, she clearly felt the difference from before. Yuan Ziyu was happy about this and wanted to let Madam Yuan and Liu use some of it as well!
She didn't want to move in the big kitchen for the time being. After all, she didn't know who the person behind the scenes was, so she didn't want to alert the enemy.
After working in the small kitchen for more than an hour, Yuan Ziyu made two trays of plum blossom crystal cakes!
Hidden in the crystal clear light pink cake are bright plum blossom petals, which is so beautiful!
"Oh my god, this is so beautiful!" Qingzhi opened her eyes wide in surprise, staring at the plum blossom crystal cake intently and exclaiming: "It smells so sweet too!"
Qingying smiled and nodded continuously. The second girl's cooking skills seemed to have improved!
Yuan Ziyou smiled, pinched two crystal cakes, and stuffed them into Qingying and Qingzhi's mouths: "Try it, how does it taste?"
This plum blossom crystal cake is made very small, so you can easily eat one in one bite.
"Delicious!" Qingzhi felt that this was simply the most delicious pastry she had ever eaten, and she nodded incoherently without even waiting to swallow it.
Qingying tasted it carefully and said with a smile, "Second Miss, this crystal cake is sweet but not greasy. It leaves a lingering fragrance in your mouth. I think it is very good!"
"That's right, I feel like I'm not eating enough!" Qingzhi quickly followed!
Yuan Ziyou smiled and took two more pieces: "If you don't have enough, just keep eating. I made so much that it's enough!"
Qingying and Qingzhi smiled happily: "Thank you very much, Second Miss!"
Yuan Ziyu smiled and ate a piece, feeling delighted. She knew her own level of skill and knew she could never make food taste this good. It seemed that the spring water in the Qiongjiang Pavilion could not only cure diseases and strengthen the body, but also improve the taste of food. She didn't know how many more surprises the Qiongjiang Pavilion would bring her!
Yuan Ziyu asked Qingying to pack two food boxes, sent Qingzhi to deliver one box to Liu, and asked Qingying to hold the other food box and follow her to Shousong Hall!
In Shousong Hall, Ning and Yuan Zitong were having fun with Madam Yuan. Madam Yuan had annoyed Ning a few days ago, so Ning wanted to please Madam Yuan. She had been accompanying Madam Yuan in Shousong Hall these days to relieve her boredom!
Seeing that Ning had been obedient these days, the elder lady no longer had a cold expression on her face!
Seeing Yuan Ziyu coming, Madam Yuan was very happy: "Second girl, come quickly, come to grandma!"
Yuan Zitong sat next to Madam Yuan Lao and smiled gently at Yuan Ziyu: "I haven't seen you for a few days. You are even more beautiful now!"
Yuan Ziyou smiled and saluted Madam Yuan and Mrs. Ning, then said to Yuan Zitong, "Thank you for the compliment, sister. I feel the same way!"
Yuan Zitong paused, forced a smile, and gritted her teeth in her heart!
Yuan Ziyu smiled and said to Madam Yuan: "Grandma, my granddaughter has nothing to do, so I made some snacks myself. Let me give them to you to try. I hope you will praise me!"
The elder lady smiled and said, "Okay, bring it over to me and let me try it. I've been thinking about fresh snacks these past few days!"
Qingying then handed the food box to Shaoyao, who opened it with a smile and exclaimed, "What beautiful pastries!"
When the elder lady saw it, her eyes lit up: "Not bad, not bad, it's worth praising!"
Yuan Zitong curled her lips secretly and said with a smile: "I just don't know how it tastes!"
Yuan Ziyou smiled without saying anything, so Shaoyao took a shallow dish and teaspoon, scooped a piece with her own hands and handed it to Madam Yuan!
Madam Yuan tasted it and showed a look of surprise. She looked at Yuan Ziyu and praised him, "I didn't expect that the second girl has such good cooking skills!"
"Grandma, you are too kind!" Yuan Ziyu smiled innocently.
At this moment, the little maid came in to report that Liu had arrived, and the elder lady hurriedly let her in!
When Liu entered the inner room, the elder lady smiled and said to her, "I didn't expect that the second girl has such good cooking skills. We are so lucky!"
As he spoke, he asked Shaoyao to give each of them two pieces of the plum blossom crystal cake, and then said, "I'm going to put the rest away and eat them slowly!"
Yuan Ziyu smiled and said, "Grandma, if you like it, I'll make it for you again in the future!"
"Okay, then grandma will be waiting!" The elder lady laughed heartily!
Liu had already tasted it at Liufeng Garden, so she knew it was delicious. She chimed in, "You'er doesn't cook easily. We're really benefiting from mother's kindness today!"
The elder lady laughed even more happily after hearing this!
Ning tasted the crystal cake and was amazed. She smiled and said, "Second girl is really skillful. When you make it again in the future, don't forget Second Aunt!"
"If Second Aunt likes it, I will give the recipe to the head kitchen. If Second Aunt wants to eat it, just tell the head kitchen!" Yuan Ziyu said with a smile. She didn't want to let Ning get away with it. The spring water from the Qiongjiang Pavilion was put in this pastry.
After hearing this, Ning said "good" and smiled without saying anything else!
The elder lady then asked Liu: "What's the matter?"
Liu replied, "Mother, the Xuanping Marquis's Mansion has sent an invitation, asking me to bring You'er over tomorrow for a chat!"
The Marquis Xuanping's Mansion is the Huo family. The current Marquis Xuanping has just been in office for three years. The eldest son of the Marquis Xuanping's Mansion is Yuan Ziyu's fiancé Huo Xifei!
The current wife of Marquis Xuanping, Mrs. Meng, is also a close friend of Mrs. Liu!
"Okay, just take the second girl to the Marquis' Mansion tomorrow and give my regards to the Marquis and his wife on my behalf!" The elder lady nodded!
"Yes, mother, I'll trouble you with the matters in the mansion!" Liu bowed to the elder lady!
"It's okay!"
"Grandma!" Yuan Zitong was indignant when she heard that the Xuanping Marquis's Mansion had invited Liu and Yuan Ziyu, so she begged Madam Yuan: "I also want to go out for a walk with my aunt and my second sister tomorrow, okay?"
After saying that, he smiled at Liu and said, "Auntie, you won't dislike me, will you?"
Liu was disgusted and was about to say something when she heard the elder lady say with a smile, "Well, eldest daughter-in-law, you can also bring the eldest maid to the Marquis' Mansion tomorrow."
"Yes, mother!" Seeing the elder lady say so, Liu couldn't refute and had to agree!
