Huang Shengli confidently said, "Yes, I did. I helped my master prepare the ingredients. I was quite surprised back then, which left a deep impression on me. I think I even asked my master the same question, but it's been so many years, I can't quite remember his answer, though it must've been a reasonable one."
"So is Master Jing's mixed fruit filling really as delicious as Mr. Gong and his wife say?" Qin Huai asked.
"Although Gong Liang is someone who often exaggerates, he does not blow things out of proportion when it comes to my master's skills."
"When I was young, I used to think my master was omnipotent. He was proficient in both meat and pastry cooking, and a master of Huaiyang and Suzhou cuisine. Even though there are many dishes and snacks that he hardly made, even just once, I knew he was also good at other cuisines."
