The favorite concubine of the system is in power

Chapter 27

As soon as the Mid-Autumn Festival came early, the palace became lively.

The Imperial Dining Room sent people to deliver mooncakes to all the palaces, except for the master, the maids and eunuchs also got extra rewards.

The atmosphere in Yongxiu Palace was even more lively.

Sishuang is illiterate, and pesters Chengshuang to tell her the story of Chang'e stealing the elixir. Sishuang's eyes are shining, full of longing.

Xiao Wanwan's voice came from the inner room: "Cheng Shuang."

"Your Majesty," Cheng Shuang opened the curtain and went in, "The maidservant is here."

"Go to the Imperial Dining Room and get some flour and sesame seeds." She thought for a while, and then added: "I also want some radishes, the red ones."

Their mother loves to make sugar cakes by herself recently, and she asked the imperial dining room for flour more than once, Cheng Shuang agreed, and came back with things not long after.

Under the trembling eyes of all the maids and eunuchs in Yongxiu Palace, Xiao Wanwan picked up the knife and neatly cut the carrots into cubes, and put them in the blue and white dish, the color matched it very nicely.

Sishuang: "Your Majesty is really powerful." She doesn't even have such good sword skills.

Cheng Shuang was worried, and she persuaded: "Your Majesty's knives are superb, and the servants admire them, but knives are dangerous utensils after all. The Majesty's body is precious and cannot be damaged. Let the servants do the cutting work."

Xiao Wanwan didn't refuse, and handed over the cutting of radishes to Cheng Shuang, and assigned two young eunuchs to crush the sesame seeds, and finally boiled them into a paste. Sishuang led a few girls to knead the dough.

"Are you going to make mooncakes filled with sesame seeds?" Si Shuang asked.

Xiao Wanwan took the palm-sized dough, rolled it out, took the boiled sesame paste, mixed it with sugar, put some thick dough in the palm, and put a spoonful of sesame paste into it.

She kneaded the dough into a round white ball, kneaded another knuckle-sized white ball, stuck it on, rolled two thin strips, and stuck it on the small white ball.

Sishuang opened her mouth wide, she saw it now, the empress made a jade rabbit!
The tiny diced radish became the eyes of the Jade Rabbit.

The Jade Rabbit dumpling is the size of a palm, looks delicate and cute, Sishuang said: "Such a beautiful dumpling, how can I be willing to eat it!"

Xiao Wanwan smiled: "If you make too much, you will be willing to eat it... It still lacks a tail, you can make it up."

Sishuang carefully squeezed a small dot, and stuck it on the rabbit's buttocks in fear, fearing that he would ruin the "masterpiece" of the empress.

All the people in Yongxiu Palace were called to make Jade Rabbit Dumplings. They worked hard all morning and made five cages. The sweet fragrance could be smelled across two courtyards.

The palace maids and eunuchs all received the rewards that their mothers had ingeniously thought out, but they all just watched and didn't say anything for a long time.

Sishuang held the Jade Rabbit dumpling and looked left and right. Cheng Shuang laughed at her: "If you don't want to eat it, give it to me."

Sishuang glared at her: "Eat it and it will be gone."

"These five cages are not enough for you to eat?" Xiao Wanwan smiled.

"Are all the five cages left in our Yongxiu Palace?" Si Shuang asked, "Don't you need to send some to the emperor and concubines?"

If such exquisite dim sum is sent to the emperor, the emperor will definitely like it, and maybe he will reward the master as well.

Xiao Wanwan thought for a while with her chin propped up, her gaze shifted, she was agile and charming, with a faint smile at the end of her eyes, and her tone was soft, her eyes fell on Sishuang: "Then send some to the Hall of Mental Cultivation." .”

When Sishuang was stared at by such eyes, she suddenly blushed.
