Rong Yan turned and entered the kitchen, where the servant responsible for preparing Li Duidui's hot milk watched her nose and controlled his breath, daring not to speak to her.
Rong Yan didn't take the initiative to strike up a conversation with anyone. She comfortably washed the ginger, sliced it, found a small clay pot in the cupboard, filled it with water, and after boiling it, threw in the ginger slices.
The warm yellow ginger slices tumbled in the boiling water, and soon dyed the water a light yellow. She estimated it was about time, turned off the heat, and poured the water into a bowl nearby.
A large pot of ginger water yielded only a small half-bowl. Rong Yan found another empty bowl, repeatedly pouring the ginger water back and forth. The water gradually cooled as it was transferred from bowl to bowl.
