Yue Yue realized that after her questions, the atmosphere inside the kitchen had become a bit somber. So she quickly clapped her hands once and forced a bright smile.
"Alright, let's not talk about the past," she said. "Let's eat first."
She picked up a warm steamed bun from the basket. The soft smell of fresh dough filled the air. She walked over to the old caretaker and gently held the bun toward her mouth.
"Here, try it," Yue Yue said in a cheerful tone. "My mother always said I was good at cooking… and lazy at everything else."
She chuckled softly.
The old caretaker looked surprised, but she still opened her mouth and took a bite.
The moment she chewed, her eyes suddenly widened.
"Oh my God," she said, her voice full of shock. "This is the most delicious thing I have ever eaten!"
She quickly took another bite.
"Your mother must be an amazing woman to teach you so many good things," the old caretaker continued. "I have never seen a young lady cook ancient food this well."
