They could only look to Qi Xingyun for help. After receiving everyone's gaze, Qi Xingyun was startled for a moment, then turned to look at Xiao Cao'er, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Then let's do as the girl says."

When Qi Xingyun finished speaking, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, everyone bowed to Xiao Cao'er and expressed their gratitude, shouting in unison: "Thank you for the reward, young lady!"

You know, even those people who serve the masters closely in the palace know very well that the people in Prince Yun's Mansion have always respectfully addressed the young lady of the Yang family as "Young Lady". Such a special title is by no means ordinary, and it is only when someone is regarded as a family member that they are given such treatment!

From this, it can be seen that Prince Yun attaches great importance to Miss Yang! So much so that even if they are dissatisfied or have different opinions, they dare not openly express their opposition. After all, even the emperor and the queen mother know about this matter and are in favor of it.

Looking at the maids and their group, they ate very quickly, but even so, they still maintained their innate elegance. This was not difficult to understand, as they were leaving the palace to represent the image of their respective masters, so how could they dare to act as rudely and indecently as hungry wolves pouncing on their food?

Not long after, when they had finished eating like a whirlwind, Xiaocao'er beside them had already prepared all the items that needed to be taken into the palace.

The food box was brought out from the palace. Xiao Cao'er poured the cooked soup into a large jar and placed the abalone in a bowl, with another bowl turned upside down on top for protection.

Not only that, she also carefully wrote down the detailed method of making pepper pork belly chicken and handed it to the nanny. As for the cooking method of abalone, it had already been presented to the Queen Mother.

After taking the things, the nanny, who had just enjoyed a sumptuous lunch, hurriedly led everyone back to the palace.

Not long after everyone left, when the Yang family was about to start having lunch, they heard the doorman hurriedly running over to report: "Master, Madam, Old Madam, Master Zheng Huaming has arrived."

Before he finished speaking, Zheng Huaming strode into the courtyard with a big smile on his face, saying, "Grandma Yang, Auntie Yang, Uncle Yang, you are just about to have lunch. Haha, what a coincidence! I just caught up with you!"

Old Lady Yang had sharp eyes and spotted him immediately. She immediately greeted him warmly, "Oh, Hua Ming is here! Come on, come on, have you not had lunch yet? You're just in time. Come and eat with us!"

Hearing this, Zheng Huaming's face immediately lit up with a smile, and he responded with a grin: "That's right, I came to Grandma Yang's place just to get a free meal!"

Old Lady Yang heard this and waved her hands in a mocking manner, saying, "What are you talking about, kid? You can come anytime you want!"

Li at the side also echoed: "Yes, we are all family, so don't be so formal. I just made a pot of soup today, especially for everyone to nourish their bodies, you have to drink two more bowls!"

When Zheng Huaming heard this, his heart beamed with joy and he quickly thanked him: "Haha, I'm so lucky today to have the chance to taste such delicious soup. I won't be polite!" As he said that, he found a seat and sat down without any hesitation.

At this moment, Xiao Cao asked curiously, "Brother Hua Ming, how come you have time to come here now?"

Zheng Huaming picked up a bowl of soup, blew on it gently, and then replied, "I just met Yun Liu on the road. He told me that they are busy with something. I thought I could come over to see if there is anything I can do to help."

After saying that, he took a big gulp of the hot soup and immediately felt a warm current flowing from his throat to his stomach, making his whole body warm.

Qi Xingyun and Xiao Cao'er have always looked down upon people who speak in a roundabout way and do things in a veiled manner.

For them, honest and direct communication is the most comfortable. After all, everyone is very close to each other, just like a family, so there is really no need to pay attention to those red tapes.

Qi Xingyun said bluntly: "There is no need for you to intervene and help this time."

Zheng Huaming responded readily, "Okay! When you need me, just give me a call."

Then, Zheng Huaming cast his eyes towards the bowl of fragrant soup in front of him and asked curiously, "This soup tastes really delicious, Sister Xiaocao'er, did you come up with the recipe yourself?"

Xiao Cao'er nodded slightly and responded softly: "Well, yes."

Zheng Huaming's eyes lit up, and he said hurriedly, "That's great! Give me the recipe for this soup later, and I'll have Jixiang Restaurant serve this dish."

It should be noted that although Zheng Huaming is now in charge of the emperor's private treasury and many businesses, he still has a share in the Jixiang Restaurant. With such a great business opportunity in front of him, he would not easily miss it.

At this time, Qi Xingyun suddenly asked: "It seems that a lot of pepper has been added to this soup. With your ability, how could you get such a large amount of pepper?"
