Steward Wu was very reliable in his work.
As soon as Song Jiyun and the others set off firecrackers and held the ritual ceremony, the banquet they had ordered was delivered.
Candied lotus seeds, vegetarian ham, vegetarian fry sliced fish, vegetarian stir-fried spicy meat cubes, flaky milk pastry… four cold dishes, eight hot dishes, two desserts—a grand table full of dishes, all steaming hot when they arrived. The flaky milk pastry was even crumbly and flaky, and those who weren't paying attention wouldn't even know that the Song Family had ordered such a feast.
The table prepared for Magistrate Jiang was handled with even greater care, having had the restaurant's master chefs bring the ingredients and cook on site.
