C29 True Friend

The sound of rain falling could be heard.

Qianqian went back to her room and was just sitting down to receive the water from Yun Lan. Before she could drink it, she heard a newspaper outside her door saying that a girl from the Shi family had sent a message.

Qianqian opened it and saw that it was the second young miss of the Shi family, Shi Xinyi. She was invited to the lake the next day, accompanied by the big miss Cheng Ruxue from Cheng Family and the second young miss from Cao Family, Cao Yan. These were all close friends of the original owner. He thought that if her reputation was ruined, they would end their relationship, but he didn't expect that not only did they not, but they even invited her to play with them. His heart was moved.

"Are you waiting for a message outside?" Qianqian asked as she closed the thread. If there was still a reply waiting for her, she replied directly. If she didn't, she would have to get someone to send her a reply.

"Miss, we're still waiting. He said he will wait for Miss's letter before he returns." Little maidservant replied respectfully from outside the door.

"In that case, tell her that I will be on schedule tomorrow and ask her to tell her miss."

"Yes." Little maidservant saluted and left to deliver the letter.

Qianqian put down the post and thought to herself. Since this was an invitation from a good friend, she might as well take a few snacks with her as a thank. "Although everyone would be prepared to go out, they would definitely be doing something different. After some thought, he decided to go to the kitchen and see what kind of pastries he could make, which he could bring tomorrow.

"Yun Lan, what ingredients do the kitchens in the yard have?" Qianqian turned around and asked Yun Lan. After all, she had been in a coma for a few months, so the maidservant servant definitely went to the main kitchen. There were probably no ingredients in the kitchen, so she might as well go to the main kitchen to get them.

As expected, Yun Lan replied, "Miss, in the past two months, other than boiling water, the kitchen did not open fire to cook. As expected, Yun Lan replied," Miss, in these two months, other than boiling water, the kitchen did not open fire to cook.

When Qianqian heard Yun Lan's words, she remembered that it was already time for lunch, so she instructed Yun Lan, "It's about time for lunch. We won't go to eat at the Old Ancestor's place today." Go to the big kitchen and see if there's anything to eat. Pick a few dishes that I like. In the future, I will be learning how to cook so that I can practice. "After dinner, I will write a list of things you can help me prepare. Since I'm going out tomorrow, I'd like to make some snacks to bring with me."

"Yes." Yun Lan listened to Qianqian's instructions and did as she was told and went to the kitchen to fetch the food.

Not long after, Yun Lan led the two little maidservant and the Food Box into the house. Seeing Qianqian's signal, they started to set up the food. Qianqian sat on the side of the table, watching Yun Lan open up the Food Box and bring out a few dishes one by one. The ones that were placed neatly on the table were sweet skinned ducks that had been neatly sliced into place.

"Wow, it smells so good." Qianqian smelled the fragrance and actually felt hungry. Just as she was about to move her chopsticks, she was stopped by Yun Zhu.

Miss, wait a moment, "Yun Zhu called out to Qianqian who was about to pick up the sweet skin duck, while gesturing for Little maidservant to come forward and take out the pickled soup from the Food Box, and said:" Miss, it's not good to eat greasy food on an empty stomach, it's not too late to use this bowl of broth first, and then use this duck.

With that, he scooped up a bowl of pickled vegetables and brought it in front of Qianqian. Qianqian took over the bowl of soup and realized that it was a habit of the Yun Family to first drink a bowl of broth when they ate, and then officially start eating. Without saying much more, she picked up the spoon and started drinking.

Qianqian scooped a spoonful and saw the emerald green leaves of the sprout floating in the crystal clear broth. It looked like a glowing jade and was placed into her mouth. The sprout was smooth, tender, and sweet. After carefully tasting the broth, he discovered that the originally plain broth had also merged with the fragrance of the ham.

"Mm, not bad." Qianqian nodded in praise as she finished the rest of the broth. By the time she put down the bowl, Yun Lan had already served up all the dishes. Other than the initial sweet duck, there was also a Dragon Well prawn, a piece of tofu made from artemisia selengensis, and a piece of jade bamboo shoot fern.

"Miss, Mama Qin said that these ingredients were just brought up from the manor. She prepared them for the master of the manor while they were still fresh. This servant will take a look and pick a few of them." After serving the dishes, Yun Lan casually relayed what Mama Qin had said.

Qianqian nodded. "Do you know what else was sent up?"

Yun Lan tilted her head and thought for a moment. "Your servant remembers that there are also water caltrops, horse hooves, lotus roots, and other spring fruits."

Qianqian thought for a moment. These few snacks were enough to make a few snacks. She decided to go to the kitchen to pick some ingredients after dinner. She made some snacks in the afternoon, otherwise, she would get up early tomorrow.

After Qianqian finished her meal, Yun Zhu served Qianqian, washed her face and rinsed her mouth before going to the garden to have some food. Qianqian then led the others to the kitchen.
