Chapter 598 - She is going with me (1/2)

After the gifts and greetings ceremony, everyone moved to the dining hall where a feast for everyone was arranged.

In the separate hall, a large table was arranged in the center with a variety of dishes for the royal family.

Generally, it was arranged in the same hall as others, but since Grandmother Shuren is here, special arrangements were made.

In the center of the table, Ji Cheng was sitting, while Shuren took the seat next to him which is for the Empress Dowager. On his other side, Zhao Ming took her seat as usual.

Wen Xu felt annoyed because she had to sit beside Shuren and her special seat, which carries her title with it, was given to Shuren.

Because of this, she couldn't even eat the special food made by head cook Qian Dan since it's for only Ji Cheng, Empress Dowager, and the Empress.

In the past, she used to enjoy the food made by Qian Dai and doesn't allow Zhao Ming to eat food made by her. However, after her birthday banquet, Ji Cheng asked Qian Dan to serve Zhao Ming as well.

Three days went in blink doing the daily chores and fulfilling the tasks given to them.

Today, they were supposed to wrap up the shoot and go back to Xia city.

Everyone gathered in the courtyard and had their breakfast. Like always, Xie Ming cooked breakfast for everyone.

Qin Bi tasted the noodles that Xie Ming made and was stupefied with its taste. She glanced at Xie Ming and asked, ”Xie Ming, did you added those herbs in it?”

On the first day, Yuan Lei made quite a fuss when Xie Ming added some herbs from the front yard.

Xie Ming nodded and said casually, ”Yes. Is there any problem?”

Qin Bi shook her head and replied, ” It's delicious. I think whenever you put these herbs in the food, the food becomes more savory and it adds a fresh flavor to it.”
