One after another desserts were quickly brought to the table by the pretty maids, and the attic became lively all at once. Lan Yin paid attention to the people in the attic, and paused for a moment on the master who ordered tea in the hall. The water was poured into the cups one by one, with a calm expression, and his eyes stopped for a moment before looking to the other side.

The people at the banquet had long been silent, and they all quietly tasted the Yangzhou dim sum during the banquet.

The dim sum chef who was hired by the Wang family with a lot of money has long been famous in Yangzhou. His specialty dim sum is Yangzhou Shuangjue, Thousand-layer Oil Cake and Jade Shaomai.

Thousand-layer oil cake is translucent hibiscus color, with layers of sugar and oil alternated, counting carefully, there are exactly 64 layers, and the surface of the cake on the top layer is sprinkled with red and green silk, which looks fresh and pleasing to the eye.

Seeing that after the elders' table was moved, someone at the lady's table only moved their chopsticks. Shen Qingyue ate a lot of this kind of dim sum in Yangzhou, and she didn't find it a novelty. Seeing Luo Xin savoring the oil cake carefully, something came to mind. .

After Luo Xin had almost finished eating, Shen Qingyue leaned over and asked in a low voice: "How do you think this plate of mille-feuille oil cake compares to the plate of crab cakes my sister gave you earlier?"

"Crab cakes?" Luo Xin recalled for a moment, remembering the plate of novelty snacks in the food box, it was not easy for her to remember things, but once she remembered, she would never forget, especially the memory of taste buds.

Luo Xin carefully compared the tastes of the two pastries in her heart.After a while, he smiled shyly and said, "Both are delicious, but I like the crab cake better."

Shen Qingyue raised the corners of her lips slightly when she heard the words, and said, "It's not too bad, after all, my sister cooked it for you herself."

Luo Xin opened her eyes slightly when she heard the words, and after realizing it, she couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled.

While the two were talking, exquisite pastries made in various shapes were put on the table one by one, including another one of the Yangzhou Shuangjue, Jadeite Shaomai. The small Shaomai was very delicate, with thin skin and green stuffing, the color was like Emerald, tastes full of sugar and oil, sweet and fragrant.

Everyone at the banquet tasted it one by one, and they inevitably ate too much, but there was already prepared tea at the side, and the tea orderer made it one by one according to the taste of each distinguished guest.

The maidservants waiting on the side brought cups of tea, and the patterns on each cup were different. Zhang Biyu's cup had a lotus flower dotted among the green lotus leaves, while Shen Qingyue's cup had a clear lake shining in the shadows. On top of Xin is a piece of finely crushed white chrysanthemum.

Luo Xin took the teacup presented by the maid, put the tea cover on the table, lowered her head and blew it seriously, and then took a shallow sip tentatively. As soon as the tea was in her mouth, her brows frowned slightly, and the fragrance of the tea There was a bit of fishy-sweet taste in it, which made it hard for her to eat.

Luo Xixiao watched Luo Xin's movements out of the corners of her eyes. Seeing her frowning and trying to put down the cup, she said with a slight smile, "This tea is from the Western Regions. Fang Ruoyan may feel uncomfortable drinking it. Sister, drink more. It tastes good."

Hearing what Luo Xixiao said, Luo Xin lowered her head and took another sip. Her taste buds were quite keen, but when she tasted the tea again, the smell of fishy sweetness became stronger. Seeing Luo Xixiao looking at her, Luo Xin could only try her best to Swallow the tea.

Shen Qingyue saw that Luo Xin's face was wrinkled into buns after drinking the tea, her eyes turned around the teacups of the people at the banquet, and seeing that Lu Xixiao still wanted to persuade Luo Xin to drink tea, she said, "I want to, too." I wonder if it will be convenient to taste the tea from the Western Regions."

Luo Xixiao was taken aback for a moment, and soon smiled again, "What's the matter, Cuilou, let the tea master order another cup for Miss Shen."

The maid quickly brought over a new cup of tea, and Shen Qingyue took a sip, but it was a bit bitter, could it be that she was overthinking it?

After being interrupted by Shen Qingyue, Luo Xixiao couldn't continue to persuade Luo Xin to drink tea, but this was enough. A smile flashed across Luo Xixiao's eyes, and she turned to talk to other girls she had been friends with.

After the banquet, the wives were a little tired and let the girls play freely. Luo Xixiao and other girls who were close to each other proposed to look for plum blossoms in the plum garden outside. Only Luo Xin, Shen Qingyue and Zhang Biyu were left sitting in the banquet.

The people in the attic gradually dispersed, and Lan Yin was slightly relieved. He couldn't help thinking about what Hongying said to be careful before.

Luo Xin was sitting on the seat, talking slowly with Shen Qingyue, her head felt heavy when she was talking, she was dazed for a while, then she looked down and her eyes closed.

Seeing her swaying down again, Shen Qingyue quickly raised her hand to support Luo Xin's body, frowned and said to Lanyin: "She didn't sleep well yesterday? Why did she feel sleepy in the afternoon?"

Luo Xin rubbed her eyes embarrassingly, "On weekdays, I would take a nap around this time, maybe I'm sleepy, sorry."

Shen Qingyue snorted softly, "What are you saying sorry to me, go back to sleep."

Zhang Biyu also said at the right time: "Luo Xin, go back to sleep, how about we make an appointment to go out in a few days?"

"Okay." Luo Xin blushed slightly, bid farewell to Shen Qingyue and Zhang Biyu, and was led by Lan to head towards Huanxiang Garden with the half-support of another little maid.

From Plum Garden back to Huanxiang Garden, although the road is not far away, you have to detour for a few sections. Along the way, you will pass through several yards prepared for guests. Lan Yin helped Luo Xin walk through the bamboo forest path, and was about to turn right when she He heard someone calling her from behind.

"Lan Yin?" Luo Xin was dizzy, turned her head and called Lan Yin's name in confusion.

Lan Yin responded softly, turned her head to look over, and frowned slightly. The one who called her was Xia Nai, who was in charge of Huanxiangyuan before. I'm still in charge of the maid in Huanxiangyuan, but why is Madam Xia here?

Mother Xia caught up with a smile, took a few breaths before she calmed down, looked at Lan Yin with small eyes and said with a smile: "Miss Lan Yin, I have something I want to tell you."

She glanced at the other maid who was helping Luo Xin, clearly expressing that it was not good to talk about it in public.

Lan Yin frowned slightly, thought for a while, and then told the little maid: "You wait here with Miss, I'll be right back."

Only then did she take Xia Momo to the side for a few steps, Xia Momo carefully looked behind her, pulled Lan Yin to move a few more steps, and stopped at the entrance of the small path.

Lan Yin looked back, and could see Luo Xin's figure, then looked at Nanny Xia, frowned and asked, "Mommy can talk now."

Madam Xia hurriedly wiped the sweat from her forehead, hesitated for a moment and said: "What I want to say is related to Madam, I dare not say it outside, so I am waiting here for the girl."

Lan's heart skipped a beat, and he asked, "What's the matter?"

Madam Xia said in a soft voice: "A few days ago, my wife came to me and asked what the second lady was doing these days. I thought about it, but I didn't say all of it. Miss, how is Kuishui recently, I feel something is wrong when I hear it."

Nurse Xia wrinkled her face, leaned closer to Lan Yin and said, "I have inquired with the people on Madam's side, Madam just met a nephew of her natal family a few days ago, I don't know if it is..."

She said that and then stopped, seeing Lan Yin's subtle smile, Lan Yin's heart skipped a beat, and when she looked back, Luo Xin was no longer there.
