Chapter 324 Honor
When Master Qi heard Qi Xingyun's words, he immediately agreed and said, "Xingyun is right. It will take a certain amount of time to arrange for people to make the oven. And by then, Madam, will you still remember how to do it?" He lowered his voice and said the last sentence in Madam Qi's ear.
Mrs. Qi was reminded by Master Qi and felt that she might not be able to remember it by then. Wouldn't it be embarrassing if she couldn't make it? She immediately said, "Master, what you said makes sense, Xiao Cao'er, I'll ask someone to come over and learn how to make biscuits. If more people know how to make them, it will be much faster."
"Yes, yes, yes, Madam Qi, you can't do it by yourself. I just heard Yun Er say that he was weak in beating eggs. We ladies don't have much strength in our hands. Let the men do it."
Mrs. Qi looked at her man, Master Qi. How dare I ask him to beat eggs for me? Impossible, absolutely impossible.
Master Qi felt the gaze from his wife and felt that he could not do this job anyway, so he immediately said, "Don't worry, old lady, there are many people working at home, and everyone can take turns to do it for a while."
"That's good. Don't get too tired." said Old Mrs. Yang.
Xiao Cao'er didn't know what to say to her grandmother in her heart: Grandma, if you knew Madam Qi's identity, you would definitely not say these words.
After Mr. Qi and Mrs. Qi left, Xiao Caoer quickly asked someone to send biscuits from other families. These families were Mr. Zheng's family, Tang Yanshu's family, and General Su's family. After arriving in the capital, Old Lady Yang became close to these families.
Qi Xingyun sent Yun Er to deliver the food. Yun Er said to every household: "This is a new treat that my little girl Cao'er has made! It has a special name, called biscuits. I made it with Madam Qi today and sent it here specially for everyone to taste!"
At first, when people heard this, they couldn't help but feel puzzled. They thought: Your daughter? Do you have a daughter now? Isn't Xiaocao'er a daughter of the Yang family? When did she become your daughter? "
Although everyone was full of curiosity, they were all polite people after all, so they would not speak nonsense. Recalling that day when the Yang family hosted a banquet to entertain guests, Qi Xingyun helped out. In this case, there must be an intention of marriage between the Yang and Qi families, otherwise, with Qi Xingyun's noble status, how could he care so much about the affairs of the Yang family?
This was what several families thought, but only the Yang family seemed not to notice anything unusual. This was because they had always had a close relationship with Qi Xingyun and visited him frequently, so they were used to it. Therefore, the Yang family only regarded Qi Xingyun's attentive behavior as a normal manifestation of their deep friendship, and never thought about it in that way.
Well, apart from Xiao Caoer, she felt that Qi Xingyun liked her, but she was still young, so she didn't want to say it out loud.
After receiving the biscuits, everyone heard that they were newly made by Xiao Caoer and couldn't wait to open them. When the biscuits of various shapes and attractive colors appeared in front of them, people were immediately attracted by the fragrance they exuded. They carefully picked up a piece and put it in their mouths to chew gently. The crispy and sweet taste instantly conquered everyone's taste buds. After tasting it, both the elderly and children praised this novel biscuit.

"Why is there so little? I only ate one piece." Zheng Huaming complained.
"You just know it's enough. Didn't you hear Yun Er say that he made it together with Madam Qi? You are lucky to be able to have a piece of it." Mr. Zheng said.
Isn’t it? Who is Madam Qi? The Queen Mother!
The Queen Mother must have learned to make cookies from Xiao Cao because she was in the mood. How many can she make? There are many children and grandchildren in the palace. It is rare to save a little from their mouths and send it to everyone to taste.
That only happened to Old Lady Yang and Xiao Cao'er. Could other families have this honor?
"How about I find some time to go to the Yang family and learn from Sister Xiaocao?" said Zheng Huaming's wife.
Madam Zheng stopped him and said, "No, they probably want to make a living after they've tinkered with it. If you go and learn it, will they teach you?"
After everyone agreed, Zheng Huaming's wife gave up the idea.
