Since there were already quite a few people in the family, and now with the addition of a few little guests and their guards, the number of people became even larger.

The number of cake cups that need to be made is naturally very considerable, and they cannot be baked all at once, so they can only be baked in batches.

At this moment, some of the cakes have been carefully placed in the oven, but the cute little guests are like being cast under a spell, tightly surrounding the oven, with no intention of leaving.

They guarded the fire so persistently that Xiao Cao had no choice but to stay and accompany them, watching Er Gouzi burning the fire seriously.

"Uncle, how long does it take to bake this cake?" The little princess asked curiously, blinking her big watery eyes.

"Well, it will probably take about three quarters of an hour." Er Gouzi answered without turning his head while adding firewood skillfully.

"How long is three quarters of an hour?" the third prince asked immediately.

Faced with this question, Er Gouzi was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself: How can I explain this to these little guys? Otherwise, I will tell you how long it will take when the time is up, okay?

At this moment, the second prince, who had been listening quietly, suddenly said, "I know! Three quarters of an hour is actually a quarter of an hour less than half an hour."

Hearing this, Xiao Caoer couldn't help but reveal an expression of surprise and admiration, and couldn't help but praise: "Wow, you are really amazing. You can even understand such a complicated time calculation!"

"Hehe, that's right. It's just a quarter of an hour less than half an hour." The Second Prince had a proud smile on his face, as if he had just solved a huge problem.

After listening to what his two younger brothers said, the eldest prince was speechless for a moment. He knew in his heart that although the two younger brothers' ideas were a bit strange, they were not completely unreasonable, and it seemed that such calculations were not impossible.

At this moment, Sanmao moved a small table from somewhere and carefully placed it next to the oven, right next to where Ergouzi was working hard to make a fire.

Then, Simao, Qiangzi and others brought in several exquisite small stools. Looking at this scene, it was obviously prepared specially for the upcoming little guests.

While everyone was busy arranging the tables and chairs, Old Lady Yang at the other end of the venue shouted, "Simao, hurry up and bring some delicious food to the little guests. Don't just stand there and watch people make the fire! And by the way, pour each of them a cup of monk fruit flower tea to clear away heat and moisten the lungs."

Hearing grandma's call, Simao quickly responded: "Okay, grandma, I know!"

Before long, a tempting aroma filled the air. Everyone swiftly brought in plates of delicious food, including sizzling grilled meat skewers, green grilled vegetables, juicy grilled eggplants, and sweetly fragrant grilled corn.

These sumptuous foods, paired with the fragrant monk fruit flower tea, were neatly arranged on the entire table. They looked dazzling and mouth-watering.

Seeing this, the little princess couldn't help but cheer excitedly: "Wow, these delicacies look much more delicious than those just now!"

Before she finished her words, she couldn't wait to reach out and grab a golden corn, and started to eat it in big mouthfuls, looking like a cute little squirrel.

The eldest prince on the side seemed relatively elegant. He calmly picked up a bunch of green vegetables and put them into his bowl. Then he picked them up with chopsticks and put them into his mouth, chewing slowly and savoring the flavor.

The other two little princes watched their eldest brother eat the vegetables with relish, their eyes wide as bells and their hearts filled with admiration.

You know, they are notoriously picky eaters and always stay away from vegetables. Seeing the eldest brother enjoying the vegetables, how could they not be surprised!

"Brother, are these roasted vegetables really that delicious?" The Second Prince lowered his voice and asked cautiously.

As he asked, he licked his lips unconsciously, as if he was also attracted by the satisfied expression of his eldest brother.

The eldest prince slowly swallowed the vegetables in his mouth, then replied with a smile: "It's really good. Compared with the commonly cooked vegetables in our palace, these roasted vegetables are much more delicious." After that, he picked up another piece of vegetables with chopsticks and put it into his mouth, smacking his lips, eating it with such a delicious smell.

"Is it true?" The third prince asked suspiciously.

However, seeing is believing, he couldn't suppress his curiosity. He reached out and quickly picked up a vegetable from his eldest brother's bowl and stuffed it into his mouth without hesitation.

After he chewed it carefully and swallowed it, he could not help but nod and praise: "Hmm, it is just as my eldest brother said, the taste of this roasted vegetable is really amazing! When I return to the palace, I must tell my mother and ask her to cook vegetables for us in the same way in the future."
