News that Ye Tianxin had returned to Empire had spread throughout the capital. Everyone wanted to know if she had returned home because there was no cure for the X-virus overseas.

However, those were just speculations. They did not let Ye Tianxin know about them.

On normal days, Ye Tianxin would lounge around at Lang Garden.

As the wedding drew near, the chefs at Lang Garden cooked many delicious dishes for Ye Tianxin, intending to make her look like a hale and hearty bride.

Li Qingcang would leave the house early in the morning and return late at night. Nobody knew what he was up to.

One day, Ye Tianxin was taking a nap. By the time she woke up, it was already ten o’clock.

Lately, Ye Tianxin spent most of her time sleeping every day. It was probably because she was carrying twins. It could also be because she had been in poor health before.

Hua Wuxia had specially brewed some herbal tea for Ye Tianxin so she could get the appropriate nourishment for her body. Such herbal tea was not harmful to pregnant women. Not only was it harmless, but it was especially beneficial for the body.

“Tianxin, are you awake?”

Ye Linlang saw Ye Tianxin holding a cup of herbal tea. The air was wafting with its fragrant aroma.

Ye Tianxin made a hand gesture and said, “Mom, I just woke up. I haven’t even had a sip of water, but when I weighed myself, I realized that I have put on a lot of weight.”

Ye Linlang laughed. “You’re pregnant now. It’s normal to gain weight.”

Ye Tianxin let out a long sigh. “Mom, by the time the two babies are born, I’ll get fat.”

“That’s what you will think now, but you’ll lose weight when your babies are born and you start to breastfeed. Furthermore, you’re expecting twins. You’ll lose all the weight very quickly.” Ye Linlang then took out a booklet and handed it to ye Tianxin. “Tianxin, do you want to take a look at this?”

Ye Tianxin asked in surprise, “Mom, what’s that?”

Ye Linlang replied, “Today we’re going to try out the dishes for the wedding banquet.”

“Am I supposed to go, too?”

Ye Linlang nodded. “Don’t you want to go out for a walk?”

“Yes, I do.”

The driver then sent both Ye Linlang and Ye Tianxin to the restaurant where the wedding would be held. The restaurant was no ordinary place; none of the guests were just common folk. The staff of the restaurant, including the chefs and waiters, had worked for nationwide banquets. Everyone had been professionally trained.

It meant that Li Qingcang and Ye Tianxin’s wedding was being held at a high standard. It was like a banquet held on a national level.

The car drove up to a small white house.

Ye Linlang pushed the wheelchair-bound Ye Yianxin into the house.

The well-trained servers led them into the tasting room. The menu at the wedding banquet had been set by Wu Tong and the chef. As most of the ingredients were seasonal, the chef only started preparing the dishes when both women arrived.

The wedding banquet was not those held normally with ten guests at a table.

The chef would prepare different sets of tableware, specifically based on the menu chosen by Wu Tong. They included utensils and cutlery made of Chinese porcelain, ceramics, gold, silver, bronze, and copper. They would be presented with each dish based on its suitability.

The Empire had a long history and culture. Different periods were characterized by different delicacies. The chefs of the Empire were like artists. They took the pursuit of beauty very seriously.
