Old Master Pei frowned. Even though Miss Pei said so, he was still unwilling to give it a try.
Ye Ningwan, on the other hand, stood up, scooped up half a bowl of soup, and took a sip.
"The taste is indeed good, with no medicinal flavor. It contains Sichuan lovage, angelica, ginseng... as well as wolfberry, cordyceps, and some flavoring herbs, which not only neutralize the medicinal properties but also harmonize the taste. My eldest sister put a lot of thought into it. Dad, please try it."
Only then did Old Master Pei accept the bowl of pigeon soup handed to him by Miss Pei.
He took a sip of the soup and nodded with satisfaction.

Having received Old Master Pei's approval, Miss Pei turned and gave Second Madam Pei a cool glance, her face bearing a fake smile.
"Second sister-in-law, you should try this too. This soup is good for your health and helps to reduce internal heat."

Madam Pei glared at Master Pei, but still picked up the piece of fish and ate it.
When they were almost finished eating, Old Master Pei suddenly put down his chopsticks.
Upon seeing this, everyone at the table immediately put down their chopsticks.
The butler brought tea for Old Master Pei to rinse his mouth.
After rinsing his mouth, Old Master Pei picked up a hot towel and wiped his face. Seeing that the younger generation below had almost finished eating, he coughed lightly and addressed everyone present.
"Besides having dinner, I also want to announce something to you all today."
