Empress, she is the darling of the Emperor's hand

Chapter 685 Early Winter 3
Manager Hai lowered his voice while laughing with Xiao Atom.

Little Atom was shocked: "It's almost winter and there are still grapes?"

Grapes always mature in August and September, but now it’s almost the Dragon Year Festival, and there are still fresh grapes? !
There is no greenhouse technology in the palace, and all the fruits are in season.

Guanshi Hai smiled mysteriously, "It's a late-ripening grape newly planted in the west. It's not big, but very sweet. The yield is also very small. Although there are not many masters in the palace, the emperor wants to reward some of them." Minister, the rest can only be reserved for empresses above the fourth rank in the palace. We have reserved them specifically for Shi Wanrong, so don’t make any announcement."

Xiao Atom knew that this must be a special case because the imperial kitchen was favored by their master.

Immediately he was happy and proud, and said with a smile: "Then thank you, Manager Hai! Our master likes to eat fruits the most. We all remember the good things that Manager Hai did, and we will never forget Manager Hai in the future!"

Manager Hai narrowed his eyes with a smile and kept saying "good", his eyes sparkling.Who in the palace would make a thankless deal? Befriending Xiao Atom and being special to Yun Waige was also because Shi Yunxin was favored.

The one who is favored is the master!This is absolutely true.

Steward Hai smiled and raised his hand, and the little eunuch ran over quickly, took Xiao Atom's food basket, and then ran over to put in the dishes assigned to Yun Waige.

On the other side, there were people from several other palaces receiving meals.One of the palace maids saw Guanshi Hai and Xiao Atom talking a few words there with smiles on their faces, her eyes changed, and she looked towards the little eunuch.

Then he saw the little eunuch put the hot and full food into the food basket, then opened the lid of the jar on the side and took out a bunch of juicy grapes from the ice jar. A very big bunch, dark purple. It was also very fresh. I quickly put the purple grapes into the corner of the food basket.

After loading the things, he walked back to Xiao Atom with the basket as if nothing had happened.

The palace maid's eyes suddenly darkened, and she suddenly walked over.

The little eunuch was returning the food basket to Xiaotong with a smile, when suddenly a cold voice came from next to him: "Steward Hai, our empress, Concubine Xue of Xuezhong Palace, is pregnant. She is so overjoyed that she often vomits. She said she wants to eat some fresh fruit, preferably sour and sweet! The newly arrived grapes today are too few for our Lady Xue Fei, so Guan Guan Hai will give us some more."

Xiao Atom and the other eunuchs turned their heads and saw a person wearing a rose-red palace maid's outfit and a magpie hairpin. She looked like a palace maid next to a high-ranking concubine standing aside. Her face was slightly cold and she gave Xiao Atom a cold look. He looked at Guanshi Hai confidently with cold eyes.

The smiles on Guanshi Hai and Xiao Atom's faces changed slightly. They turned to look at the palace maid next to Concubine Xue. They were startled, then they lost their smiles and respectfully explained: "You are the Yuling girl beside Concubine Xue. ? Hahaha, you want more grapes, but I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can do about it. There aren't many grapes sent this time. After dividing them among the harem, there are only so many that can be given to Concubine Xue..."

Manager Hai explained politely.

However, Yu Ling's face suddenly turned cold. She interrupted Guanshi Hai and said in a cold tone: "Not so much? Guanshi Hai is sure, but it's not true that we have to ask Guanshi Hai. Guanshi Hai better know. We The empress is Concubine Xue, not the other cats and dogs, and our empress Xue Concubine has been found to be pregnant with the dragon heir. The dragon heir is worth a lot of money. It is natural for the empress Xue Concubine to want anything now, and the imperial kitchen has no choice but to do so. Here! Are there really no grapes left? Steward Hai needs to think carefully!"
