Lady Guo smiled brightly: "Concubine thanks the Empress for the reward!"
In truth, she was already gritting her teeth, her heart overflowing with bitterness.
It will definitely not be tasty.
Back at the Guo Residence, I never heard that this half-sister had any talent in cooking, no matter what she did, it was always lackluster.
Only her face is worth looking at.
As Lady Guo thought about this, she picked up a piece of candied fruit and put it in her mouth.
The sweet taste exploded instantly in her mouth.
She loved sweets, and though she hadn't tasted a thousand types, she had certainly tried hundreds.
But some candied fruits were too sticky, feeling like eating cobwebs when put in the mouth.
Some were too dry, needing to be softened in the mouth before eating, greatly affecting the taste.
Some had poorly handled sweetness, too cloying. Or failed to reduce the sourness, supposed to be candied fruit but tasting like sour fruit.
