Bab 20: Chapter 20: Welcoming All Comers

"Mother, did you bring me some delicious food back from the Kitchen? I want Chestnut Cake, Green Bean Cake, fermented glutinous rice balls, and soup dumplings. Just bring me some of whatever tasty things there are; I'm so craving them." Su Wenyue didn't say she was hungry to avoid Han Yu worrying and her parents feeling distressed; she merely said she was craving something.

Even so, Master and Mrs. Su, as well as Han Yu, all saw through it. Han Yu knew that these two meals were cooked by the Second Sister-in-law, which meant less oil and average taste. His wife, used to eating well, could hardly stomach it and ate very little each meal.
