Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
However, he quickly came back to his senses and felt that this reward was within his expectations. Miss Jian had made such a great contribution, so it would not be an exaggeration for her to receive any reward.
However, when he saw that Jian Qingqing was still in a state of shock and confusion, he felt that this expression of hers was rare. He felt slightly amused and patted her head. “Wake up, you’re not dreaming.”
Jian Qingqing came back to her senses. It was rare to see Ming Zhiyan joke. She patted his arm and quickly said to Eunuch Wang and the others, “Come in, come in, come in. Come in and have some tea.”
This was a joyous occasion, so Eunuch Wang and the others did not refuse.
They smiled and said, “Then our family will get a nice cup of tea to drink.”
Old Man Jian and the others did not have time to think about what had just happened and quickly went in to make tea.
“Dalang’s wife, go get them some desserts to eat. Dalang, come with me to make tea.”
“Ah, okay.” Looking at the haggard look in everyone’s eyes, Jian Qingqing guessed that they had just arrived not long ago. She quietly asked Ming Zhiyan, “Brother Ming, did they not eat anything?”
Ming Zhiyan shook his head. Seeing that he was going to be busy again, he said, “I’ll get someone to send it over. You don’t have to work anymore.”
Jian Qingqing did not plan to do it herself. She wanted to ask Father Jian to do it. How could a family leave their guests to work? She still had to serve the guests.
“I’ll get my father to do it.”
The guests had come from afar to serve good wine and dishes. However, this group of guests was a little special. They came here naturally because they were curious about high-yield grain. Therefore, she planned to have a high-yield grain feast for this meal.
There were more than 20 people in this group. Jian Qingqing took out all the stools and divided them into two tables for them to sit down. The two cakes on the table had not been touched, so she gave the cakes to everyone. She smiled and said, “This is the cake my mother made. Everyone, take it to fill your stomach first.
General Zuo Wei quickly took it. “Princess, you don’t have to work. We’ll just make it.”
He then handed the cake to Jian Qingqing.
Jian Qingqing sat down and realized that her status was different now.
Actually, she did not have much to talk to these people. Most of them knew that Ming Yan was talking to them, but she realized that Ming Yan didn’t seem to know how to chat either. They would often get cold when they chatted, general Zuo Wei and the others did not seem to be willing to chat with Ming Zhiyan either.
In the end, they could only drink tea and eat desserts while chatting awkwardly.
“Princess, I wonder what this cake is made of? I’ve never eaten this kind of dessert before.
At the base of the imperial city, they had seen everything. Even the Emperor often gave them the special dishes and desserts of the imperial palace, but they had never eaten such desserts. They were so special and delicious.
When it came to cakes, Jian Qingqing perked up. The imperial edict just now said that her princess residence was in the Capital, and that the gold and silver treasures given to her by the Emperor had also been sent there. When the time came, they would definitely all go to the Capital.
In the Capital, if they opened another dessert shop for Mother Jian, they would need to advertise beforehand. And these people in front of them were living advertising spots. With one look, they could tell that they were not short of money and felt that it was delicious, after returning home, they would talk to the women at home. By then, the dessert shop would definitely not be short of customers.
“These are called cakes. The layer of cream on the outside is made from milk.
When a woman eats it, she can be beautified and her mood can be improved…”
Everyone was stunned when they heard that. They did not expect that a small snack could have so many tricks.. The princess was so amazing!
