She Became A Downfall Noble Lady

Lady Qin swallowed half of the shrimp ball in her mouth and looked at Jiang Yifan in surprise, saying, "How come this tastes different from what I tried before? Isn’t it quite delicious?"

Jiang Yifan was waiting for his mother’s reaction, and seeing her looking over, he couldn’t help but smile and say, "This thing is naturally like this, at first it really isn’t something you’re used to, but after eating it a few more times you’ll be able to appreciate its flavor. Didn’t Ah Yan also say that the taste of deep-fried cheese balls is easier for people to accept?"

Lady Qin nodded and looked at the various other pastries and fruits on the table.

Although she had just been looking through the menu with Ye Xinyan, she noticed that most of the names of the food were bizarre and unheard of. But at that time, she thought to herself, at the end of the day it’s still the food from our Great Xia Dynasty, limited by the ingredients, how different could it be? At most, the names are just a bit novel.

To her surprise, the pastries and the like in this Pastry House were indeed like nothing she had seen before. And each pastry and snack looked delicious, truly whetting one’s appetite. Just like the small pot of snow pear and winter melon soup in front of her, the soup was crystal clear and glistening, and the few grains of golden orange peel sprinkled on top were very pleasing to the eyes.

Lady Qin picked up the soup spoon, took a sip, and the sweet taste was refreshing. The winter melon and snow pear had been stewed just right, retaining their original slice shape while also being soft and melting in the mouth, with a fragrant orange flavor.

Ye Xinyan watched Lady Qin taste the sweet soup and asked, "Madam, what do you think, does it suit your palate?"

Lady Qin nodded and praised, "The flavor is excellent, the sweetness is just right, refreshing to the palate. What’s even more precious is that hint of fresh orange scent, which is quite rare in the winter days."
