Wang Xin'er was the first to pick up her chopsticks. She picked a piece of fish that her brother had placed on her plate, dipped it in some sauce, and put it in her mouth.
Her beautiful eyes immediately curved into crescents as she exclaimed, "Delicious! So fragrant and tender… It melts in the mouth; truly wonderful!"
Hearing Wang Xin'er's praise, the other women quickly tried the food as well, and soon all of them were captivated by its deliciousness.
Although the three prominent families of Jinling were wealthy, such rare and high-quality ingredients couldn't be bought with money alone.
Moreover, these families never sought out luxury or extravagance; even if such exquisite items came across occasionally, they wouldn't compete with others for them.
Therefore, this was the first time any of them had tasted something so delicious.
