Dong Li also enjoyed the fruit soup and exclaimed, "Mother, this soup is so refreshing and delicious!"
Lu Jueyu smiled and replied, "There are plenty. You can have another bowl if you want."
"Thank you, Mother," Dong Li said happily.
The amount of fruit soup was more than enough for 50 tables so there was no need to be so stingy. Wanting to show her appreciation, Lu Jueyu gave each of the helpers a bowl to quench their thirst and cool off.
When they received their bowls, everyone was pleasantly surprised. Fresh fruit was a rare treat since even dried vegetables were hard to come by these days. No one expected to enjoy such a luxurious dish simply by helping in the kitchen.
"Everyone, we can only have one bowl each for now. If there are any leftovers after the banquet, you are welcome to take some home," Lu Jueyu said warmly.
Hearing this, the helpers expressed their gratitude and understanding.
