The sunset's afterglow stained half the sky red.
The incident happened after returning to Huilan Garden.
The kitchen steward led the servants over from afar. Upon seeing Yu Tingwan, she quickened her pace to greet her.
Before Yu Tingwan could ask, she chuckled, "The weather has been hot these days, and I'm worried the Young Madam might lose her appetite. So, I've been thinking of preparing something fresh. We went over to the Lotus Pond to pick some lotus pods, leaves, and roots... to prepare a lotus-themed feast."
Yu Tingwan showed a bit of interest.
"Are you making Lotus Leaf Chicken?"
"If the Young Madam wishes to eat it, naturally there will be some."
The steward was attentive and knew the tastes of each master well, so how could she not know Yu Tingwan loved meat?
"Has the Young Madam ever tried Lotus Fragrant Fish? Fresh fish stuffed with ginger and scallions, wrapped in lotus leaves, and slowly grilled over coals. The fish meat carries a natural fragrance."
