Xiao Hei nodded, and didn't dare to take out his retracted hand again.
Helan Ruizhe laughed and said, "Why don't you dare eat it?"
Xiao Hei gave him a timid look and said, "It's too expensive. I don't dare to eat it."
Jin Suting burst out laughing and stuffed a piece of slightly hot egg yolk pastry into his mouth. "Why would you dare to eat it? I made this, are you still afraid to eat it?"
Xiao Hei muttered as he picked up the egg yolk pastry and took a bite. The aroma of the egg skin filled his mouth, the taste was moderately salty and sweet, and the filling was soft and tender, which was really praiseworthy.
"Is it tasty?"
"It's delicious! It's really delicious. Come on, try one and see for yourself."
Xiao Hei said this and took out another egg yolk pastry and gave it to Cao Cao. Cao Cao first looked at Helan Ruizhe and then at Jin Suting.
Only after getting confirmation did he take the egg yolk pastry, put it in his mouth and took a small bite.
My mouth was immediately filled with the aroma of egg yolk and a light milky flavor. "Miss, it's delicious!"
This is the first time Jin Suting has made egg yolk pastry here, and she doesn’t know if it will taste good.
But after getting the affirmation from Xiao Hei and Cao Cao, two big foodies, I felt half relieved.
She picked up the plate, turned sideways and handed it to Helan Ruizhe, saying, "Your Highness the Crown Prince has made a great effort. Would you like to try it?"
Helan Ruizhe was just upset that she hadn't noticed him, but then his expression relaxed a little. He stretched out two fingers to pinch a piece of egg yolk pastry, took a bite, and some of the crispy skin stained the corner of his mouth.
The taste was excellent, and the flavor was mellow. He chewed it carefully for a long time before saying, "It's delicious."
Jin Suting was instantly overjoyed. Hearing Helan Ruizhe use "very good" to praise someone made her feel relieved.
After all, it is a birthday gift for the Mother of the Nation, so we cannot be careless.
"So what do you think, how about giving this to the Queen Mother?"
Helan Ruizhe was stunned by her sudden question, "Give it to the Queen Mother, you mean a birthday gift?"
Jin Suting said, "Yes, it's a birthday gift, but it must be more than that. Didn't you say that the Queen Mother likes to eat? That's why I said I made egg yolk pastries for her."
Seeing her at a loss for words, Helan Ruizhe laughed, "Don't worry, she will definitely like this taste."
Jin Suting was pleasantly surprised: "Really? That's great!"
Helan Ruizhe nodded, put the last bite of egg yolk pastry in his hand into his mouth, chewed it carefully, and savored it endlessly.
"It's late, I'll take my leave now." Helan Ruizhe said, "If you want to try something else, you're welcome to the East Palace kitchen."
After all, his place is bigger and has more complete equipment and ingredients.
Jin Suting's heart was bubbling with joy, but she still pretended to be reserved: "Is it really possible?"
Helan Ruizhe nodded seriously again, "Okay, I said, you can come to the East Palace anytime."
——
The evening breeze at the end of March is very cool. The crescent moon that has just climbed up to the treetops is curved, emitting faint light, illuminating the way for people returning home late.
Jin Suting sent Helan Ruizhe out of the general's mansion. Their shadows were stretched very long. Standing facing each other, their shadows on the ground stuck together, so close that they were indistinguishable from each other.
"See you tomorrow then."
Jin Suting said.
"good."
Helan Ruizhe answered.
She stood far away for a long time, until she could no longer see Helan Ruizhe's back, and then she wanted to turn around and leave.
"Hey, big sister, meeting your lover~"
Jin Xiyan came out from behind the pillar. She had been hiding in the dark, going crazy with jealousy.
Obviously, she also participated in the selection of Crown Princess.
