Early the next morning, Lin Shanyue had Chunlan and Xialu taste her new creations. While Xialu was still at the stage of being utterly astounded every time Lin Shanyue produced a new item, Chunlan had already grown accustomed to it. The pleasant surprise remained, but it was as if she knew her mistress was simply the most capable person alive, so whatever she conjured up, she took in stride.
Lin Shanyue smiled and distributed a few to the two of them, and Xiaobao ate two as well. That served as their breakfast. The new items had to be delivered to Chunlai Teahouse and Huayue Pavilion first for Sister Liu and Manager Du to sample; only if both of them approved could she begin making them in large quantities tomorrow.
Xialu would still be handling Huayue Pavilion, and as for Sister Liu, Lin Shanyue actually had few worries—in all likelihood, Liu Niang would love them.
