The layout of the Shangguan Family residence is very exquisite, clearly the handiwork of someone with great taste.
From the outside, the Shangguan Family estate does not seem very large, but inside, it reveals a hidden paradise. Shangguan Nanxian was walking with Tang Xi through the garden, introducing her to the flowers and plants she had cultivated.
Many of which were precious varieties that Tang Xi could not name.
"This is the pavilion where I usually rest when I come home. The evening breeze is just right now; let's rest here for a while."
A servant came up with two beverages, and Shangguan Nanxian said, "This is almond dew; it tastes a bit bitter but is very nutritious. My mother likes to drink it, and it is prepared in the kitchen every evening. I don't know if you'll get used to it."
Tang Xi picked it up and took a sip.
It was still warm.
The flavor was uniquely almond, bitter but with a sweet aftertaste.
