She claimed to be from the baozi kitchen of Grand Tutor Cai's (蔡太師 [cai tai shi]) mansion. One day, he asked her to make baozi, but she refused, saying she couldn't."

There would be 'bath baby baozi' (浴兒 [yu er]), which were bestowed upon high-ranking officials (巨臣 [ju chen]) and imperial relatives (戚里 [qi li]). These baozi were all various items such as large and small gold and silver coins (金銀大小錢 [jin yin da xiao qian]), gilded golden millet fruits (金粟塗金果 [jin su tu jin guo]), rhinoceros horn jade coins (犀玉錢 [xi yu qian]), rhinoceros horn (犀玉 [xi yu]), and rhombus-shaped ornaments (方勝 [fang sheng])."
