604 Dim Sum

Ye Xinyi had good eyesight and ears. He had already heard the footsteps of Lu'er coming back early in the morning. He raised his eyes and looked out of the window. He happened to see Lu'er who had deliberately slowed down.

Lu'er happened to see her too. While the two of them looked at each other, Lu'er nodded slightly at her. Ye Xinyi then looked away, while Lu'er took a big step.

When Yan Qiu heard the movement, she turned around and saw Lu'er entering the door. She frowned and asked, "Didn't you say you've been searching for your ears? Where did you go?"

"I didn't see the earrings all the way back. I suddenly thought of the clothes I sent to wash this morning. I was worried that the earrings would be wrapped in it, so I went to search, but I didn't find them." Lu'er said softly, and with her drooping look, it was a sign of guilt in Yan Qiu's eyes.

However, she thought that this little palace maid must have been lazy and ran to somewhere to play. After all, she was just a temporary call to serve her. She was young and had no sense of character, so she was not concerned about her master.

Yan Qiu glanced at Ye Xinyi and saw that she was just looking faint, without any anger, and she didn't want to be such a bad person. She said, "I have already found it."

"Have you found it?" Lu'er glanced at Ye Xinyi's earlobe. Sure enough, she saw the missing earring hanging on Ye Xinyi's earlobe. She smiled, "That's great."

Yan Qiu curled his lips and was a good person.

Ye Xinyi felt a little bored, "I don't need me to accompany you if I have something to do now. We are also bored here, so what can we do to pass the time?"

It is natural that Yan Qiu and Lu'er are not easy to speak. If it is normal, it would be nice to go out to the Imperial Garden to stroll around, but Ye Xinyi is like this, and I don't know if Concubine Xian would let her walk around at will.

Ye Xinyi didn't hear the two of them, and his expression was a little sad.

Seeing this, Lu'er hurriedly smiled and said, "Earlier, the Empress asked someone to bring clothes to her wife. She only wore them all this morning, and there were two left. I don't know if it fits well. I'll take them to her for her to see."

As he said that, he turned around and fell into it. After a while, he really put on his clothes and came out.

Not to mention anything else, the material is excellent. However, this size is not that good, Ye Xinyi said it was OK. After a while, he would change it according to his own size. When he touched the smooth and soft silk, Ye Xinyi sighed, "The Queen of Virtue is really good to treat me, but I feel a little guilty about it."

Seeing this, Yan Qiu snorted coldly in his heart. This Ye family is really stupid. Others can buy her with a little favor. They didn't know that they had become fish on the other people's plateau and could be slaughtered at any time.

Ye Xinyi naturally didn't know that Yan Qiu was complaining in her heart. Because of this new dress, she thought about the "good" of the concubine of Xian was to her, and she seemed a little worried for a moment.

"But, what can I do for the Concubine Xian?"

After pondering for a while, her mind flashed and her eyes suddenly lit up, "I don't know much about anything else. This girl and cooking skills are quite acceptable, but the time is limited, so I'm afraid that it won't work on any sewing work, but it's feasible to make two plates of snacks."

"This is pretty good. When the wife came, the empress had explained that it would be fine if the wife was willing to do everything in Yong'an Palace. She wanted to borrow the kitchen if she needed it." After hearing this, Lu'er agreed.

"Really?" Ye Xinyi probably felt that someone agreed with her, and her face was even more shiny.

"If the wife really wants to make snacks, I will say hello to Madam Cui in the kitchen." Lu'er said enthusiastically.

Ye Xinyi was even more happy, "Then please let me go."

Yan Qiu frowned, "Madam, this... there are so many things in the palace to eat. Even if we do it, the concubine may not be able to speak." Although this is tactful, it is very meaningful. Ye will not be unable to understand it, right?

Ye Xinyi understood, but she didn't mind, "This is OK. I just did it. One is to pass the time and the other is to do my best. As for the snacks, it doesn't matter whether the concubine Xian eats it himself or rewards it to the servants. I feel relieved in my heart."

As he said that, Ye Xinyi had already stood up and said to Lu'er, "No need to worry about going to inform me first. You work in this palace and are familiar with each other. Just take me to the kitchen!"

Lu'er glanced at Yan Qiu's face and responded to "Yes", then came forward to support Ye Xinyi. The two of them were chatting while walking out.

Yan Qiu frowned behind her, but did not dare to delay, so she quickly chased after her.

When they arrived at the kitchenette of Yong'an Palace, Lu'er and the kitchen manager Madam Cui explained Ye Xinyi's purpose. Madam Cui agreed without much difficulty. It was not dinner time, so she readily turned a stove for Ye Xinyi to use.

After Ye Xinyi thanked him, he asked Madam Cui if there was any food he liked or avoided. Madam Cui shook her head.

Ye Xinyi had to watch and do it.

Yan Qiu looked at Ye Xinyi's seasoning coldly, kneaded the dough, mashed walnut kernels, peanut kernels, sesame seeds, melon seeds, and so on, steamed the date paste. She was very busy, but she really looked like she was concentrating on making pastries.

I complained in my heart that I was really from a small family and could not be on the table, so I felt much more at ease.

Seeing that several cages of hot snacks were out of the stove and there was no trouble, I felt even more relaxed.

Ye Xinyi is still good at being a human being at this moment. She made three kinds of pastries in total, each one made more. Apart from the ones that were served on the plate, there were still a lot left. She invited the palace maids and eunuchs who worked in the kitchen to try them together, and of course, the portions of Lu'er and Yanqiu would not be missing.

Ye Xinyi's cooking skills are always good, and the snacks are carefully prepared, which tastes excellent.

Seeing this, Ye Xinyi was a little satisfied. He packed several plates of desserts in food boxes, carried them in person, and delivered them to the main hall.

After she was busy, it took half a day. When she sent the snacks to the main hall, Concubine Xian happened to wake up from her nap. After hearing her request for a meeting, Concubine Xian would naturally not neglect her "guest" like her, so she invited her in.

Ye Xinyi went up to ask for An, and then opened the food box, took out the plates of snacks contained in it, and placed them on the small table with lotus-style painted flowers by Concubine Xian. He said, "My wife thought that the Empress was very good to me, but she felt that she couldn't repay me. She just happened to be idle, so she went to the kitchen to make some snacks to pass the time. Now she was ready. I saw that it was still some time before dinner, and I heard that the Empress had a habit of using snacks for a while, so she picked up some of them to give them to the Empress to taste them, which was also a sign of her wish."
