Throw it away?
The boy said with a hint of regret, "Your Highness, won't you take another look? Even if you don't eat it, just looking at it would be nice!"
Yun Chan frowned even more deeply: "No need."
He never touches anything given to him by outsiders.
The young man said regretfully, "The tea and snacks sent by Princess Yuan Yao are something I've never seen before in my life. They look delicious."
"Is that so?" Yun Chan's gaze fell on his face.
The boy jumped, quickly slamming the lid back on the food container: "I'll go throw it away right away!"
The next day.
Before leaving the palace, Yuan Yao instructed Yu'er to have people milk more cows for future use, and then happily went to the National Academy.
She arrived early; there weren't many students in the school yet.
Looking at the empty seat, Yuan Yao took out the custard buns that Yu'er had made for her early in the morning from the food box, and arranged them on the desk in three whole plates.
The rich aroma of milk quickly filled the school.
While looking down at her book, Yuan Yao picked up a custard bun and slowly munched on it.
As class time approached, students entered the classroom in twos and threes.
As soon as you step inside, some people can't help but stretch their necks and sniff around.
It smells so sweet!
Finally, their gazes all locked onto Yuan Yao.
On Yuan Yao's desk were three plates of tea snacks. The snacks were white and plump, like glutinous rice balls, but they looked softer and sweeter.
Just looking at it makes me want to try it...
Many people concealed their embarrassment at swallowing, silently walked to their seats, took out books and pens, and tried their best to ignore the smell.
Just as everyone was feeling awkward, Lin Xuan stepped into the school with his head down.
He first sniffed the air, then his gaze locked onto Yuan Yao.
Yuan Yao was biting into a custard bun, revealing the tender, yellow, and tempting filling inside.
Lin Xuan swallowed hard, frowned, and said, "Yuan Yao!"
How can you bring food to eat at school?!
Yuan Yao held up half a custard bun and looked at him vaguely: "Lin Xuan, you've come at the right time. Are you hungry? I'll share some food with you."
Lin Xuan failed to do a plank yesterday, and tried many more times when he got home in the evening, but he still couldn't hold the position. He was quite angry with himself.
He woke up this morning feeling sore and achy all over, and almost couldn't get out of bed.
So he started blaming Yuan Yao, and all the way there he was thinking about how to make things difficult for Yuan Yao without giving the Ninth Prince any leverage over him...
Unexpectedly, Yuan Yao brought him some fragrant and tempting desserts and invited him to eat them.
Lin Xuan immediately felt humiliated.
He glared fiercely at Yuan Yao: "I won't eat!"
After speaking, he walked to his seat, clutched his back, and sat down in pain.
Is he on fire?
If she doesn't want to eat, she doesn't have to. Why yell at her?
naughty kid!
It must be that your skin is itchy again.
Yuan Yao nibbled on her custard bun, then looked around and saw a little girl staring at her curiously and timidly from a seat not far away.
The little girl looked about six or seven years old. She was very thin and fair-skinned. Her hair was tied in two small buns with a blue ribbon. She had big eyes, but they lacked vitality. Whenever her eyes met someone's, the girl would immediately look away unnaturally.
She's so timid...
He is timid and easily embarrassed; he is an introverted child.
Could she be the daughter of some high-ranking official?
Yuan Yao picked up a plate of custard buns she hadn't touched before, handed it to the little girl, and asked, "Would you like to eat this?"
Upon hearing this, the little girl was first surprised, then blushed and shook her head repeatedly, "Thank you, no need..."
Her voice was also very soft, like a mosquito humming.
That's really interesting.
Yuan Yao simply placed the plate on the little girl's desk and said generously, "I have a lot more, but I can't finish them all. You can have these, so don't waste them!"
Upon hearing this, the little girl bit her lip and hesitated for a moment before asking, "Sister Yao'er, can I take this and share it with my older sister?"
Her sister?
Yuan Yao asked, "Is your sister here too?"
The little girl shook her head: "No, she's at another school."
From other classes?
Yuan Yao thought for a moment, then packed another dish of custard into a food box and handed it over: "Take all of these."
The little girl exclaimed happily, "Thank you, little sister Yao'er!"
After speaking, she packed the dishes, picked up the food box, and happily walked towards the door.
As soon as she reached the door, she bumped into two people.
The leader, with one hand behind his back and a stern face, said, "What are you trying to do, all so impetuous?"
The little girl was so frightened she almost dropped the plate, and said in a tearful voice, "Brother Prince, I'm sorry..."
Crown Prince?
The students in the school all looked up.
Standing by the door, isn't that His Highness the Crown Prince?
Beside him was Xie Zhi.
Everyone hurriedly stood up and bowed.
Yuan Yao also stood up and waved: "Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
The Crown Prince glanced at the food box in Princess Lan Yue's hand: "Go ahead."
Lan Yue felt as if she had been granted a pardon and ran away immediately.
Xie Zhixian, stepping ahead of the Crown Prince, quickly walked to Yuan Yao, lowered his head, picked up a custard bun, and asked curiously, "What is this?"
He could smell its sweet aroma even from outside the door.
"This is called a custard bun, and it tastes very good." Before Yuan Yao could speak, the Crown Prince spoke first.
"Is this a steamed bun?" Xie Zhi asked. "Why does this look different from the steamed buns I've eaten before?"
Of course they're different!
Yuan Yao explained, "This is made with milk dough and filling with egg yolks, lard, etc., while the dough you usually eat is made with water."
"Milk?" Xie Zhi looked at her curiously.
He had already heard about the matter of the Ninth Prince searching for an ox for Princess Yuanyao.
Surprisingly, this milk is actually edible...
Xie Zhi hesitated and said, "Isn't this dirty?"
Dirty my foot!
Yuan Yao wanted to swear.
She grabbed a small steamed bun and stuffed it into Xie Zhi's mouth: "Eat quickly!"
As Yun Chan stepped into the school, she saw Yuan Yao feeding Xie Zhi.
He frowned, covered his face with his sleeve, and walked weakly toward his seat.
Yuan Yao's seat was not far from hers.
She leaned closer and asked, "Yunchan, have you tried the food? How did it taste?"
Yun Chan replied indifferently, "Hmm."
Um?
What does "嗯" mean?
Did you eat it or not?
Is it delicious or not?
This little quirk!
Forget it, I won't ask him anymore.
Xie Zhi swallowed a whole custard bun and asked the Crown Prince, "Have you already tried it?"
"Yes." The Crown Prince nodded. "I went to see the Ninth Prince yesterday and took some with me when I left."
Xie Zhi choked up, then asked Yuan Yao, "Little Yao, did you take some for Yun Chan too?"
Yuan Yao cupped her face in her hands: "Yes."
Xie Zhi: "..."
They all have them!
He's the only one who doesn't!
This is discrimination!
Why is he so angry?
Xie Zhi wiped his mouth and asked Lin Xuan loudly, "Lin Xuan, do you have one?"
Lin Xuan, holding the book, glared at him and said, "Get lost."
He's a complete idiot!
At that moment, Xie Zhi strode over, grabbed Lin Xuan by the neck, and dragged him up: "Come on, let's go outside and have a fight!"
Lin Xuan put his hand on his waist and pushed Xie Zhi away: "Go away! Don't touch me."
Xie Zhi felt particularly annoyed. He brushed his hair back and said to Yuan Yao, "Little Yao, wait for me after school. Don't run off by yourself, okay?"
