Shocking! The entire court was drooling with envy because of me.

"We're going to find our aunt."

"Little Aunt?"

The children were taken aback, and only then did they notice Yelü Zhuyue standing beside them.

They were so busy talking to the Yang Nu siblings that they didn't even notice Yelü Zhuyue.

"Little Auntie," the children called out obediently.

Yelü Zhuyue nodded without saying anything more.

She never had much affection for the group of children who frequently bullied the Yang Nu siblings.

The children seemed a little uncomfortable and left after saying only a few words.

Yelü Zhuyue then asked, "Why are they suddenly being so enthusiastic towards you?"

"I suppose it's because I helped them yesterday..." The sheep slave recounted what happened yesterday.

Currently, only Yelü Bo is unable to eat Sister Shen's delicious food, and Yelü Bo complained to Yelü Meng yesterday. It's estimated that those people will no longer play with Yelü Bo.

In other words, Yelü Bo was isolated.

"Is it because of this Lady Shen again? Why does this Lady Shen keep making decisions for you?" Yelü Zhuyue frowned.

Without hesitation, An'an, who was standing next to her, said, "Because Sister Shen is beautiful and kind-hearted."

Yelü Zhuyue: "..."

"My sister is right, because Sister Shen is beautiful inside and out," Yang Nu said earnestly.

Yelü Zhuyue was helpless.

Alright, she wanted to see just how beautiful and kind-hearted this Lady Shen really was.

The line moved slowly, and after a while, it was finally Yelü Zhuyue and the others who got to join.

"Sister Shen, I've brought my aunt to buy soy milk rice mochi!" Yang Nu shouted happily.

little aunt?

A princess of the Liao Dynasty?

Shen Qing raised her eyes and her gaze fell on Yelü Zhuyue.

The woman in front of him was about fourteen or fifteen years old, tall and slender. Her face was typical of a Khitan, with slightly high cheekbones, a very defined jawline, and slightly raised eyebrows, which carried a hint of pride. Her gaze toward Shen Qing was filled with a mixture of inquiry and doubt.

"I'd like three cups of soy milk rice mochi," Yelü Zhuyue said.

This Lady Shen looks like a calm and aloof cook, not like a formidable character at all.

I don't know how Yelü Meng ended up in Shen Niangzi's hands.

"Okay, please wait a moment." Shen Qing deftly began making soy milk rice mochi.

But he couldn't help but start thinking about it.

The Yang siblings seemed very close to the Liao princess, and in her presence, the two children visibly became much more lively.

Perhaps we can find out information about Nangong Mu from this Liao princess.

"Your soy milk rice mochi."

Soon, the three cups of soy milk rice mochi were ready.

"Little aunt, try it! It's delicious!" Yang Nu first served Yelü Zhuyue a cup.

He then handed a cup to his sister before finally picking up his own.

Yelü Zhuyue held the soy milk rice mochi that Yang Nu handed her, examining it with a curious expression.

The first thing you see is the top layer of milk foam, which is snow-white and creamy, covering the rim of the cup like a white cloud.

A layer of soybean powder is sprinkled on the milk foam, and the aroma of soybeans and milk blend together, wafting into people's nasal cavity with the rising heat.

Stir it with a bamboo straw, and you can see milky white mochi in the cup, while the milk tea is light brown. The whole cup feels warm in your hand.

"It looks quite nice," Yelü Zhuyue murmured to herself.

I took a small sip through the straw.

The milk foam mixed with soybean powder flooded my mouth, a sweet and salty flavor intertwined. The richness of the cheese and the sweetness of the milk foam complemented each other, and the soybean powder carried a roasted nutty aroma, making it incredibly fragrant.

Take another sip of the soy milk tea, and the smooth milk flavor blends with the rich soy flavor. The black tea aroma is subtle and not at all astringent, but rather has a hint of sweetness.

What's even more amazing is the mochi, which is soft and chewy, like chewing on a steamed glutinous rice flower. The milky aroma of milk and the fragrance of glutinous rice are released in your mouth at the same time.

"This, this, this..." Yelü Zhuyue was completely stunned on the spot.

Good heavens, she had never eaten anything so strange in her life.

"It's so delicious!! Soy milk rice mochi is so good, the mochi is so tasty, I love eating mochi—" a shout came from the side.

Yelü Zhuyue glanced at it.

Hmm... it was the sheep slave who jumped up...

At this moment, he did have a somewhat childlike carefree feeling.

Seeing this, An'an jumped up happily, "An'an also likes mochi! Mochi is so delicious! Sister Shen is so amazing!!"

Yelü Zhuyue: "..."

She also felt a little like jumping up.

This stuff is really delicious, so delicious! It's much better than Li Sanwan's milk tea!

Shen Qing looked at him and couldn't help but smile.

The Yang Nu siblings were much more lively around Yelü Zhuyue.

Previously, the brother and sister were very cautious and wary of the outside world. Even when they ate donkey meat sandwiches and drank bubble tea, they did not act like this.

With loved ones around today, I feel truly relaxed.

Just as she was thinking this, suddenly, something popped out by Xiao An'an.

It landed not far from Shen Qing.

Looking down, it seemed to be a small tiger.

Shen Qing squatted down and picked up the cloth tiger.

This cloth tiger is very new, like it was just made.

The stitches are rough; the person who made this doesn't seem to be very good at needlework.

It can't be...

Shen Qing had a bold guess in her mind.

"An'an, your little tiger has fallen." She walked up to the little girl and handed her the little tiger.

"My little tiger!"

An'an then realized that she had dropped the little tiger and hurriedly caught it.

Shen Qing asked casually, "Was this beautiful little tiger a gift from your mother?"

"yes......"

"I gave it to you!"

Yelü Zhuyue interrupted An'an sharply.

After saying that, he realized he had gone a bit too far, so he hastily covered it up by saying, "On the way back, I saw some for sale by the roadside, so I bought two and gave them to Yangnu and An'an."

"Yes, yes, it was given by my aunt," Yang Nu said from the side.

Shen Qing smiled and nodded: "Princess has excellent taste, this little tiger is so cute."

Alright, it's confirmed. It was given by Nangong Mu, the biological mother of the Yangnu siblings. Otherwise, Yelü Zhuyue wouldn't have reacted so strongly.

They sell these on the roadside, with such coarse stitches, who would sell them?

It seems that Nangong Mu has a close relationship with this Liao princess.

"It's alright, it's alright, your soy milk rice mochi is quite delicious, it's delicious." Yelü Zhuyue's brain could hardly keep up with her mouth.

Shen Qing: "As long as the princess is happy."

Why is this Liao princess inexplicably kind of cute?

However, how could she get the whereabouts of Princess Nangong Mu, who was to be married off to Yelü Zhuyue, out of her?

This is a bit tricky.

You can't exactly tempt them with food, can you?
