Stepping out of the threshold, Feng Hao gave a loud and majestic order to chase him out.

"Let's see if there's anything delicious to eat and bring some back!"

Feng Zhiwei's footsteps paused on the threshold for a moment, and then left without looking back. Behind her, she vaguely heard her mother holding Feng Hao in her arms and whispering comfort.

Feng Zhiwei was expressionless - as an adopted daughter, she should not express any dissatisfaction with her son being favored.

Although she was the only one who knew that Feng Hao was actually just an adopted son, he was still a boy and the one who could pass on the Feng family name in the future.

To be honest, Mrs. Feng has been able to carry her as a burden in the most difficult times, and has never told anyone that she is not her biological daughter, so that she can stay in the snobbish Qiu Mansion. She is enough. gratitude.

As for the family affection and warmth...forget it, life may not be in your own hands, so what else do you expect?

The big kitchen is in chaos at this time, busy preparing the latest and most exquisite snacks for the picky princess. Princess Shaoning is the most beloved daughter today. It is said that at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the princess was still an infant during the war. She was once separated from His Majesty, and it took a lot of effort to find the princess. On the day the princess was found, an auspicious scene appeared in the sky. Soon after, he conquered the capital and established the Tiansheng Dynasty. Therefore, His Majesty has always regarded this daughter as a lucky star and favored her very much. .

Feng Zhiwei quietly entered the kitchen from the side door. She still had the same yellow face, and her eyebrows were drawn together. But with just these two changes, her whole appearance and temperament changed drastically, making people take a second look. No interest at all.

There are large and small steamers in the kitchen. The heat is so thick that it is difficult to see people’s faces. There is a strange sweet smell in the air. I don’t know what new snacks are being made. Feng Zhiwei doesn’t want to alarm anyone. He quietly found an empty stove, poured water into the pot, and prepared to reheat the steamed buns.

There were some delicious food on the chopping board, but Feng Zhiwei didn't even take a second look - Feng Hao asked her to bring some delicious food because he was ignorant. Considering the embarrassing status of her mother and daughter in the mansion, Just ask others not to make things difficult for you, how can you cause more trouble?

It’s just that aroma that is really unbearable... Feng Zhiwei touched her belly and felt even hungrier.

She was so focused on waiting for the water to boil that she didn't notice someone sneaking in quietly at the door of the kitchen. She didn't even notice that several cooks seemed to be working very seriously, but their eyes glanced in this direction intentionally or unintentionally. .

The water in the pot was gurgling and steaming. Feng Zhiwei did not dare to stay longer. After the water boiled for a while, she went to lift the pot. She thought that the steamed buns would be half hot. As soon as her hand touched the scalp of the steamed buns, she suddenly heard There was a crisp sound.

"Crack!"

At the same time, as if waiting aside, the cook's scream sounded.

"There is a thief! The imperial meal offered has been stolen!"

Feng Zhiwei was startled, immediately retracted his hand, and stood up quickly. No matter how hot the buns were, he grabbed them and stuffed them into his arms. He turned around and ran towards the back window - there was the back window of the kitchen two steps away. It was very low, and it turned out to be a bush of flowers and rocks. As long as she could get out, she could escape. In any case, she shouldn't be here at this moment.

However, she was a step too late.

It's not that she didn't react quickly, but just as she ran out, she saw someone running in that direction first, climbing out of the window, probably too panicked, sprained her feet as soon as she landed, and vaguely heard "Ouch! "A cry of pain.

A familiar voice.

Feng Zhiwei stopped.

She stood in front of the window, her eyes drooping, and a complex mixture of anger, helplessness, worry, hatred and other complex expressions flashed across her face in an instant.

Then she took a deep breath, turned around, and quickly and steadily put the buns back into the pot.

It was impossible to climb through the window now. The pained and thin breathing under the window told her that the person who stole the food could not walk away, and she would be discovered together if she climbed out. It would be even more unclear when the time came.

At this time, there was a commotion in the kitchen, and the stewards and cooks from outside rushed over.

"It's you..." An old lady looked at Feng Zhiwei who was standing with her back to the window, her tone was angry and surprised, but there was a hint of smug joy in her eyes.

Feng Zhiwei secretly cried out that she was unlucky - this was Aunt An, who was in charge of the kitchen. She was an old widow who lost her husband early in her life. She had always wanted to sleep with the powerful manager Liu from the outer courtyard, but manager Liu thought she was too old-looking. She can't even wipe off her skin, and she only thinks about sleeping with the young Feng Zhiwei. The old woman has disliked her for this reason for a long time.

Aunt An's eyes quickly turned to the case, her expression suddenly changed, and she rushed over.

"You actually destroyed the swiftlet fruit offered to the princess!"

Because the window sash was wide open, the steam dissipated, revealing a jade lamp carefully covered with a silver silk cover on the table. However, now the silver wire cover was turned aside, the jade lamp was half tilted, and there was a semi-solidified cheese-like object inside. The blood was all over the table, and there were still a few black fingerprints on the edge of the jade cup, which looked very dirty and embarrassing.

The sweet fragrance in the air became stronger. Feng Zhi inhaled slightly, and his heart sank a little. Although he didn't know what it was, it was obvious that it was an absolute treasure.

"How do I explain this? How do I explain this!" Aunt An originally just wanted to embarrass Feng Zhiwei, but she kept her composure when she found someone coming in. She didn't want to move, but she wanted to provide Shaoning with meals. Chuanshan had really caused a big trouble this time. She stared at Feng Zhiwei with hatred. If she had taken advantage of it before, now she really hated it to the core.

There was a vague abnormal noise under the window, like the sound of something accidentally rubbing against the wall, but it was covered by Aunt An's heavy breathing. Feng Zhi's face darkened slightly and he pinched it slightly with his fingers.

"Miss Feng..." A middle-aged woman beside Aunt An said in a gloomy voice with a livid face, "This swiftlet was indeed purchased by the Second Young Master from Dai Viet with a lot of money. One tael is worth thousands of gold, and it is steamed and sun-dried nine times in a non-traditional way, and mixed with more than ten kinds of refined ingredients such as snow mountain purple sunflower root. Only expensive black stone wood can be used as firewood in the whole process... To make this cup, No matter how much money was spent and how much effort was put into it, these are all unique treasures. Tomorrow the princess will pass on the meal, what do you want us to bring to worship?"

When Feng Zhiwei heard the names of these ingredients that represented mountains of gold and silver, she felt secretly annoyed. She took a deep breath and said, "I just came to heat up the steamed buns. I didn't touch that."
