Baby brings his own shopping mall to travel through

Just as everyone was writing Spring Festival couplets with great interest, a figure slowly approached. It turned out to be Qi Xingyun. He came here to discuss the palace banquet on New Year's Eve with Xiao Cao'er and others.

Qi Xingyun smiled and said slowly, "Officials above the fifth rank can bring their families to this palace banquet. People like Da Mao and Er Mao can also bring their families."

Hearing this, Damao immediately turned to look at his grandmother and mother, and asked with expectation in his eyes: "Grandma, mother, do you want to come with me to the palace to take a look?"

In the past, when the Yang family was not in the capital, Damao would attend the palace banquet alone. Now that all his relatives have gathered in the capital, he naturally hopes to bring his family to the palace so that everyone can broaden their horizons and appreciate the magnificent palace that everyone talks about.

When Old Lady Yang and Mrs. Li heard the news, they were extremely surprised and their excitement was beyond words.

Old Lady Yang hurriedly asked, "Does attending the palace banquet mean going to where Old Lady Qi and Madam Qi live?"

Mrs. Li, who was standing by, couldn't help but feel curious and asked, "Will we meet Madam Qi by then?"

Qi Xingyun smiled and nodded, and replied: "My brother and sister-in-law will attend the palace banquet, so you will naturally be able to meet them."

At this time, Old Mrs. Yang couldn't help but sigh: "Oh, it's been a while since I last saw Mrs. Qi!" Her words revealed her memories and nostalgia for the past years.

"Mother, think about it, Madam Qi is a noble person! She must be very busy with work on weekdays, how can she be as free as us! When she was able to visit our house before, it must have been difficult for her to spare some free time to come here." Li said softly.

Old Lady Yang nodded repeatedly, expressing her agreement: "That's right, those nobles in the palace have so many things to worry about all day long, how can they have such leisure time as us! However, next time when we go back home and make some delicious food, we can send some to Madam Qi."

At this time, Li suddenly seemed to remember something and said, "Hey, didn't Xiaocao make that special soup this morning? Let Xingyun taste it later. If she thinks it tastes good, see if we can send some to Madam Qi as well."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Old Lady Yang responded quickly, "I remember Xiao Cao also said that the soup is very nutritious, especially suitable for drinking on such a cold day. It will warm your body up after drinking it!"

However, Xiao Cao'er shook her head and explained seriously: "Grandma, mother, Madam Qi's daily diet is not the same as that of ordinary people. You must not treat it casually. Besides, the palace has strict rules and regulations. You can't just bring in food from outside."

"Don't worry, grandma, just do it." Qi Xingyun said with a relaxed smile, "After everything is ready, I will personally deliver the food to the palace."

Xiao Cao'er, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but look worried and whispered, "Brother Xingyun, this may not be appropriate! After all, this is food that will be sent to the palace, so we should be more cautious."

At this time, Li also stepped forward and echoed Xiao Cao'er's words, saying, "Yes, Xingyun. In fact, we just mentioned it casually. If you really think it's too much trouble, then forget it. Anyway, we can do it next time when they are free to leave the palace."

However, Qi Xingyun didn't care. He smiled and comforted everyone, "Don't worry! Even if I am the only one responsible for delivering these foods, I will definitely arrange for someone to taste them before using them. Only after confirming that they are safe will they be officially allowed to eat. So, there is no need to worry about anything going wrong."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Cao blinked and asked hesitantly, "But... doesn't this seem a bit too much trouble?"

Qi Xingyun waved his hand and answered confidently, "How could that be? For my brother and sister-in-law, being able to taste delicious food is a pleasant thing. Moreover, this time they don't need to come in person to get it, they just need to speak a little and give an order. Such a simple thing, they are naturally eager for it and are full of joy!"

As expected, when the Queen Mother received the letter from Qi Xingyun, she immediately sent one of her most trusted maids out of the palace to the Yang family to collect the delicious food.

Of course, several well-trained guards also left the palace with the nanny. They were all capable people who served the Empress Dowager closely on a daily basis.

When the group arrived at Yang's house, they happened to catch the soup just coming out of the pot. In an instant, the rich aroma spread like an invisible torrent, filling the entire house.

Just this morning, Xiao Caoer specifically asked the cook to go to the market to buy a fat local chicken and a fresh pork tripe, and declared that she would cook herself and prepare a delicious pepper pork tripe and chicken soup for everyone.
