Yan Xixi served porridge to her: It was golden pumpkin porridge, with a little cornmeal, no sugar added, but just a spoonful was sweet and delicious. Liu Daqing immediately said, "Really nice."
Yan Xixi was delighted: "As long as you like it. I remember the Empress Dowager used to like fermented tofu and such, but it's actually quite salty. We should mix it up a little. Empress Dowager, try these first, eat more if you like them, and if not, I can make something else tomorrow…"
Liu Daqing tasted all the small dishes with a smile and was full of praise: "Delicious, really so good."
She ate three bowls of pumpkin porridge.
She noticed Yan Xixi ate a lot as well and laughed: "Young girls now all eat less, afraid of gaining weight. Aren't you worried about getting fat?"
Yan Xixi laughed too: "I always eat a lot for breakfast. If I'm full in the morning, I won't be hungry all day; I might not even need dinner, so I definitely won't get fat."
