"We're on our way to dinner, why don't we go together?" Mo Xiaoyan invited.

"Sure, I was going to come and support you guys, but you guys came over at noon. There were too many people in your store, so I didn't go in." Leng Qianye said somewhat regretfully.

"Hehe, it's fine. Since you guys are able to come, then consider it as giving me face." Mo Xiaoxia didn't mind at all.

"Then let's hurry over." Mo Xiaoyan called out.

When they arrived at the restaurant that Mo Xiaoyan was talking about, Yang Danian and Wang Xiuqin was already waiting.

As there were more people, there were two tables.

Mo Xiaoyan ordered a lot of dishes, and when Lady Li saw that many of the dishes on the table were all good dishes, she was sure that they were all expensive.

Amongst the people eating, only Su Jinxuan spoke a little coldly and with a few words. Mo Xiaoyan felt that he was treating his words as if they were gold.

From time to time, Wang Xiuqin would sneak a peek at Mo Xiaoyan's table.

Yang Danian had noticed Wang Xiuqin's small action, but he didn't understand what she was looking at, so he didn't pay it much attention.

Seeing that Su Jinxuan sat down and ate very little, and only ate a few mouthfuls, Mo Xiaoyan could not bear to watch any longer, so she kindly gave Su Jinxuan some chopsticks and placed it into his bowl.

Only, Mo Xiaoyan did not notice that Su Jinxuan was frowning deeply, as though he did not like people giving him food, but he did not say it out loud.

Leng Qianye broke out in a cold sweat for Mo Xiaoyan. He knew that Su Jinxuan did not eat other people's chopsticks or food because he would be thankful for not losing his temper.

What happened next caused Leng Qianye to be even more shocked, as he actually managed to eat the dish that Mo Xiaoyan picked up from his bowl earlier.

Shangguan Chuyue was also relatively shocked when he saw it, but the other seated people didn't think that it was anything important. In any case, Mo Xiaoyan and Su Jinxuan were already engaged, so they felt that this was normal.

Su Jinxuan actually felt very warm in his heart when he first saw Mo Xiaoyan picking up her dishes. It was just that he was not good at showing off, and it was probably because of the environment she had lived in since young, that allowed him to be good at hiding her feelings, and not easily trust anyone.

After dinner, Mo Xiaoyan went to settle the bill, and Su Jinxuan quietly followed.

"I'll pay for the meal." Su Jinxuan walked in front of Mo Xiaoyan and wanted to pay for the meal.

"There's no need. We've already agreed that I will treat you guys. Furthermore, today is the day my Second Sister's Embroidery Shop will be open for business, so inviting you all to a meal is also something to be happy about." Mo Xiaoyan rejected Su Jinxuan's good intentions.

"Are you sure?" Su Jinxuan looked at Mo Xiaoyan and asked again with a faint smile.

"Of course I'm sure, it's nothing much, but I still have to thank you for your good intentions." Mo Xiaoyan would definitely not let him pay the money. Originally, she was already very embarrassed living in his house for nothing, but now, she did not want to owe him a favor for the food.

Mo Xiaoyan took out his money bag and walked over: "Innkeeper, how much silver is it in total?"

"Ten taels of silver in total." The shopkeeper said with a smile.

Hearing this number, Mo Xiaoyan was shocked, this was just too expensive, actually selling it for 10 taels of silver, how many kebabs would one have to earn back.

He silently took out 10 taels of silver from his money pouch and passed it to the other party.

Su Jinxuan looked at Mo Xiaoyan who was still smiling merrily just now, and when he heard that it was ten taels of silver, he was obviously a little shocked.

"Let's go." Let's go. After Mo Xiaoyan paid the silver, he turned and said to Su Jinxuan.

"I won't go over. I'll just wait here." Su Jinxuan said coldly.

"Alright then, I'll go over first." Mo Xiaoyan glanced at him and entered.

After Mo Xiaoyan entered, the two tables were in full discussion, making it difficult for her to disturb them.

Mo Xiaoyan cleared her throat and said: "Is everyone done eating?"

"En, I've finished eating." Leng Qianye and Shangguan Chuyue replied with great respect.

"Then let's go out first?" Mo Xiaoyan asked tentatively.

"Let's go, it's getting late." Lady Li was the first to stand up and reply.

After they left, Leng Qianye and Su Jinxuan left together, the few embroidery ladies also returned home, while Yang Danian and Wang Xiuqin also returned home.

As for Mo Xiaoyan and her family, Shangguan Chuyue and his wife, they went over to the small courtyard to stay for the night. It was already too late, so Lady Li and Liu Yuemei had to wait here for the night.

Mo Xiaoyan went back to the small courtyard to chat for a while. It was already dark by then, but Mo Xiaoyan still insisted on going back to the shop. It was not safe for a little girl to walk around outside at night, so Mo Linyu sent Mo Xiaoyan to the shop over there before going back.

When he opened the door early the next morning, Chen Zimo had already arrived.

"Xiaoyan, why are you so early?" Chen Zimo walked to the door and said with a smile.

"I'm not that early yet, why are you so early?" Mo Xiaoyan looked at him strangely.

"I came by to take a look." Chen Zimo's face looked somewhat haggard.

"I haven't seen you in a long time." Mo Xiaoyan opened the door wide for him to take a seat first.

Chen Zimo walked in and sat down: "A few days ago I went to the capital and only returned last night."

"Oh, so that's how it is." Mo Xiaoyan nodded and said.

"Did you have breakfast?" Mo Xiaoyan got up so early, just as sshe was about to open the door first and go to the kitchen to cook, he saw Chen Zimo.

"Not yet." Chen Zimo said somewhat haggard.

Mo Xiaoyan saw that Chen Zimo's entire person was haggard and weak, he looked very dispirited, but he did not know what kind of experience he had going to the capital this time.

"I was going to make breakfast for you, so why don't you have some too?" Mo Xiaoyan asked.

"Sure, hur hur. Then I won't be polite." Chen Zimo barely managed to force a smile out of his mouth.

Mo Xiaoyan went to the kitchen to make a simple meal. She brought it out and placed it on the table, then gave Chen Zimo a pair of chopsticks.

Chen Zimo was also good with his food, but he also ate a lot of it. Unlike Su Jinxuan who was like a god, he only ate a few mouthfuls, who knows if he had eaten his fill or not.

"My cooking skills are not good, you can have it." Mo Xiaoyan said somewhat modestly.

"It's very delicious. I've never eaten this much at home before." Chen Zimo praised.

"Are you for real?" Mo Xiaoyan was so praised that her smile blossomed.

"Of course it's true. How could I lie to you?" Chen Zimo said after eating a few mouthfuls.
