Chapter 480 (1/2)

”The mourning family didn't know you could cook,” said the empress dowager, looking at Wen Xiao for a moment. ”Look at this, have you done it many times?”

”Not many times,” Wen Xiaohan said vaguely. ”Mother, try it first. It's not delicious when it's cold.”

The Empress Dowager picked up a ball and bit it gently.

She felt the delicious spread in her mouth and suddenly widened her eyes.

”How could you...” the Empress Dowager swallowed her words and looked at the plate of meat balls in front of her with a faint aroma.

Wen Xiao picked his eyebrows. It seemed that he couldn't understand the Empress Dowager's complex look. ”Empress mother, what's the taste?”

The Empress Dowager swallowed the food in her mouth and breathed a sigh of relief.

”The mourning family is tired. You can go back and have a rest,” the Empress Dowager looked at Wen Xiao faintly. ”It's time to wait for the draft again in a few months. You serve the emperor every day, but your stomach hasn't moved. It's time to have dessert.”

”My concubine knows,” Wen Xiao lightly blessed his body, ”and my concubine retired first.”

After taking two steps, Wen Xiao turned back and said, ”if your mother likes it, my concubine will come back to your little kitchen another day.”

”You're the happiest if you don't come to AI's house.” the Empress Dowager glared at her. ”Let's go. AI's old, but I don't have the energy to deal with your young people.”

Wen Xiao smiled and turned away without nostalgia.

The Empress Dowager gently rubbed the exquisite armor cover on her finger, and her expression looked obscure.

”Empress dowager, imperial concubine, this is...” the old lady looked at the master's face and stepped forward and whispered, ”is this asking for peace from you?”

”With her temperament, she can make peace with her family?” the queen mother smiled helplessly. ”Just because she said a few bad words about her mother when she entered the palace, she remembered her revenge. Now, how can she expect her to make peace with such a temper?”
