Mo Yuan said, “Miss said to prepare a full banquet.”
What she meant was that if Thirty Thousand didn’t eat it, no one else would.
Thirty Thousand understood. His eyes widened in fear. “When did Young Madam say that?”
He was very sure that he had been present the entire time and did not miss a word.
Mo Yuan remained silent. It was fine as long as she understood.!!
Seeing her like this, Thirty Thousand suddenly stood up and was about to leave when someone grabbed his shoulder.
He subconsciously grabbed the hand and turned around to retaliate.
Unexpectedly, Mo Yuan retracted her hand even faster and swept him to the ground.
“You…” Thirty Thousand did not expect this person to be so skilled. He felt that his waist was about to break.
Mo Yuan said, “You’re not allowed to leave until you’re done eating.”
Thirty Thousand’s face turned red. “Who said I’m not eating? Can’t I find a food box to pack up and eat slowly?”
Was he the kind of person who would waste food?
Mo Yuan pursed her lips. “I’m sorry.”
With her attitude, Thirty Thousand felt embarrassed. It was his fault for not telling her in advance.
He stood up with his hands on his hips. “Then can I go and get the food box now?”
He had fallen quite badly just now. Apart from feeling pain, he also felt embarrassed. He could not even win against a woman.
Mo Yuan glanced at Thirty Thousand’s waist. The latter immediately retracted his hand and stood straight.
She was silent for a moment before turning around and taking out a food box from the kitchen to silently help him put the dishes in.
Thirty Thousand was flattered and went forward to help. From time to time, he would steal a glance at Mo Yuan.
Under the setting sun, the woman’s originally cold expression softened.
He was stunned.
Thirty Thousand only came back to his senses when a food box was thrown at him.
He took it uncomfortably and glanced at Mo Yuan. He stammered, “You’ve been busy all afternoon. You didn’t eat anything. Why don’t you eat something too?”
Mo Yuan remained silent and turned to leave.
“Consider it the compensation for attacking me just now.” Thirty Thousand quickly stopped her. After saying that, he felt that something was wrong.
However, there was no way to take it back. She could only brace herself and add, “I guess that’s fair.”
If anyone else was here, they would definitely be surprised. Thirty Thousand, who had always been protective of his food, had actually been beaten up and had to share his food with that person.
If they knew, they would have attacked long ago.
Mo Yuan felt that she was in the wrong. Without a word, she walked back and snatched the food box from Thirty Thousand. She rearranged the potatoes inside and sat down to eat.
Thirty Thousand was stunned. He came back to his senses and sat down opposite her. He was clearly full just now, but he subconsciously picked up his chopsticks and ate with her.
He mimicked Mo Yuan and picked up whatever she picked up. He felt that the food tasted even better than before.
“Why don’t you ever smile?” Thirty Thousand tried to find something to say.
Mo Yuan’s hand paused. Just as Thirty Thousand thought that she would not answer, she said indifferently, “I don’t have to smile to serve Miss.”
Thirty Thousand’s heart skipped a beat. Why did it sound like this person existed specially to serve the Young Madam?
He suppressed the awkwardness in his heart and retorted, “Why wouldn’t you need to? Look at Young Madam. She’s so happy every day. Don’t you feel good too?”
Mo Yuan nodded. Her mistress’s happiness was the most important thing.
“That’s right. Smiles are contagious. Smile more when you’re by Young Madam’s side. Young Madam will feel better when she sees it.”
Mo Yuan pursed her lips and smiled stiffly.
Thirty Thousand was speechless.
That didn’t look like a smile. It looked like she was crying.
He licked his lips and put down his chopsticks to demonstrate. “The corners of your mouth should be raised like mine, not pulled down.”
Mo Yuan observed his expression seriously and tried to smile again.
Thirty Thousand was stunned for a moment. He coughed dryly and suddenly leaned forward.
Mo Yuan’s expression turned cold and she was about to attack.
“Don’t move.” Thirty Thousand stopped her in time. He reached out and tugged at Mo Yuan’s cheeks.
He forced a smile on her face before reluctantly letting go. He pretended to be calm and said, “Just keep it like this.”
The curve was there, but it was a little stiff.
Mo Yuan stayed silent.
She maintained it for a while. After confirming that she had memorized it, she stood up expressionlessly and said coldly, “You can eat the rest yourself. If you don’t finish it, I’ll inform Young Master.”
With that, she left without waiting for a response.
Thirty Thousand only came back to his senses after a long time. He raised his hands and looked at them for a long time before suddenly laughing foolishly.
During dinner, Shen Yijia looked at the potatoes and roasted chicken that Song Jingchen had personally served. Her heart ached for the unborn eggs.
However, she could not bear to blame her beautiful husband. In order to show her respect for this innocent chicken, she could only turn her grief and indignation into a good appetite.
She finished all the chicken pieces and even the gravy that came with the steamed potatoes.
In the end, she ate too much.
Song Jingchen was amused and annoyed when he heard her sitting there and complaining about her stomachache.
He had just told her not to eat if she couldn’t eat anymore, but this person refused to listen.
“I’ll get Mo Yuan to make you some digestive tea.”
“No need, no need. I’ll just lie down for a while.” If others found out that she had eaten too much, she would feel embarrassed.
Song Jingchen pursed his lips. “I’ll tell her I ate too much.”
Shen Yijia said, “Alright then.”
Not long after Song Jingchen left, he returned with a bowl of digestive tea.
Shen Yijia confirmed again. “No one knows it’s me, right?”
Song Jingchen paused. “No.”
Only then did Shen Yijia finish it with a clear conscience.
However, she didn’t know that everyone wouldn’t believe it if they heard that Song Jingchen had eaten too much.
Seeing that Shen Yijia was about to lie back down after drinking the digestive tea, Song Jingchen quickly stopped her. “Let’s go for a walk.”
Shen Yijia rubbed her stomach with a resistant expression. “No.”
Even if the emperor came, she had to lie down today.
After ten minutes.
“Hubby, where are we going?” Shen Yijia originally thought that they were going to take a walk in the residence, but she didn’t expect Song Jingchen to pull her out of the residence.
Behind him were Thirty Thousand and Mo Yuan.
“I’m going to the prince’s residence to get something.” With that, Song Jingchen glanced at Thirty Thousand indifferently.
Thirty Thousand shuddered. “Master, South Wind’s stomach is a little unwell, so he asked me to replace him.”
After saying that, he secretly glanced at the expressionless Mo Yuan.
Not only was Shen Yijia curious about what was in such a hurry to get it in the middle of the night, but even Shangguan Han was shocked to see them.
He thought that something big had happened.
Unexpectedly, Song Jingchen said firmly, “Open your private treasury.”
Shangguan Han heaved a sigh of relief. So it was a robbery. But wasn’t this more like what Sister-in-law would do?
He stole a glance at Shen Yijia and understood. Sister-in-law must have instructed his cousin to take responsibility for this.
Shen Yijia rolled her eyes. As expected of the heavens. She had let her beautiful husband take the blame twice in a day. Now, she had returned the favor.
When Shangguan Han was in the Eastern Palace, he had so many treasures that his room couldn’t even hold them.
Looking around in this new treasury, she saw that it was empty and covered in dust. If not for the big lock on the door, Shen Yijia could have said that this was a storeroom.
