The Princess Consort wiped the drool from his mouth and couldn't help laughing when she saw him watching Manbao while eating with gusto, "This child, I don't know what's wrong with him. When feeding him egg custard or meat broth by himself, he's always unhappy. But when he watches other people eat, he also eats with great appetite."
Manbao said, "Eating too much makes it taste not as good."
She said, "Children are all like this, always thinking that other people's food tastes better. Madame, the taro at your house is really delicious. Where is it grown?"
"It's grown in the West Mountain. The soil there isn't good, but it's particularly good for growing taro. His Highness also likes eating it, so the estate sent many over. It's not only delicious when roasted; it's also good when boiled. If you like, I'll have someone pack a bag for you to take when you leave the palace. You can also roast it by the fire even in the palace."
