The Mid-Autumn Festival was about to arrive. Shi Xingcan had specially made a spa this day, fixed her hair, and put on some makeup that was not too thick or too light, so that she could perform better in front of the Crooked Father. No matter what, Qu Zhong had still demonstrated her superb acting in front of the people of time home, and it could be said that she had left her some face.
"Is it Xing Can?" Crooked Father called out to him, but kohlrabi fructus only glanced at Shi Xingcan without saying a word.
"Thanks a lot, Xingcan." Crooked Father laughed, "Come in quickly."
"Is there still no movement in your stomach?" The kohlrabi fructus spoke up.
The atmosphere in the living room became silent, after a few seconds Shi Xingcan replied: "Sorry, Mom …"
"Yes mother, I'm …"
"You came to our family to marry me, so you should know how many betrothal gifts our Qu Family has given to your family. Right now, the one you are spending money on is also Little Zhong's card, right? I don't have any points in my heart, don't I know how to be grateful? " kohlrabi fructus was overbearing.
Shi Xingcan really wanted to say, that she had spent all the money she had earned, but your son never gave me a single cent!
"Mom, don't worry, we're still young." Qu Zhong casually said, "Eat your food, I'm hungry."
The kohlrabi fructus rolled her eyes at Shi Xingcan, but did not say anything else. She turned around and went to the kitchen to urge the servants to bring the food over.
The four of them sat at the round table and ate in silence. Crooked Father's health was not good, so she did not drink either. Since Shi Xingcan had originally prepared toasts to his, it was useless. The Qu Family also emphasized on eating without speaking a word, and on the table, only the unrefined sound of Qu Zhong sipping his soup could be heard.
"Does young master still want some soup?" I'll go get it for you. " The mama smiled, "Young Master still likes to drink the soup that the Madam cooks just like when he was young."
"You made the soup?" Crooked Father looked up and asked kohlrabi fructus.
"Yes." kohlrabi fructus replied. She just went into the kitchen and stirred the pot with a spoon, and that's what she did.
"Young Mistress should eat this red jujube pig's feet. It's good for having a child, I specifically made it for you." With a loud bang, mama placed a huge black and red plate in front of Shi Xingcan. The boneless pig's feet had been stewed until they were soft and unrecognizable. The red dates seemed as if they had been fried and burnt to a crisp. On the plate, large pieces of unmelted brown sugar could still be seen.
"Thank you …" "Thank you, Mom." Shi Xingcan choked on her tears, but she couldn't help but be moved.
"En, hurry and eat. Eat more." kohlrabi fructus was expressionless, she was just in charge of sprinkling a handful of brown sugar into the pot.
Shi Xingcan forced herself to take a bite and put it in her mouth. Immediately, a pained and sweet smell entered her brain and she almost vomited.
"Is it delicious?" kohlrabi fructus asked.
"Yes, it's delicious. How could mom not like it?" Shi Xingcan forced out a smile. She couldn't swallow that soft and silky thing, so she could only drink a mouthful of water and barely swallow it.
"Then let's eat them all. Hurry up and give birth to a child, and let our Qu Family inherit the food. Little Zhong's grandfather will be happy even in the sky." Only then did kohlrabi fructus have a smile on his face.
Shi Xingcan replied. Her appetite was not big, she had already eaten half of her full, and then ate this disgusting thing … She was afraid that she would vomit on Qu Family's dining table.
Furthermore, saying that kohlrabi fructus was deliberately making things difficult for her seemed to be accusing her wrongly. She did create her own dish, 'Red Sugar Red Jujube Stewed Pork's Foot', for Shi Xingcan, but Qu Family's chef didn't cook so stingy. It was just that when kohlrabi fructus came to the kitchen to 'cook', she did not have much concept of 'a handful of brown sugar.
Shi Xingcan looked at Qu Zhong for help, but his husband was still immersed in drinking the soup, as if he had no idea what had happened. Shi Xingcan had no choice but to bite the bullet and pick up her chopsticks, just at that moment, the doorbell suddenly rang.
"mama, look who it is." The kohlrabi fructus was a little displeased and sent a servant to open the door.
"This is — Madam, Miss Han is here." mama's loud voice came from the profound entrance, "There's also little gongzi."
Shi Xingcan's heart tightened, Han Yue actually dared to come here?
"My grandson is here? "Come over here and let grandma hug you." kohlrabi fructus's face instantly turned into a bright chrysanthemum as he walked out of the dining hall in quick steps. Qu Zhong put down the spoon in his hand and also went out to welcome them. Only Crooked Father and Shi Xingcan were left on the table.
"Abnormal." "Xingcan, don't take it to heart. You will always be the wife of our Qu Family, I promise you."
"Thank you, Dad." Shi Xingcan replied softly. There was no choice, they could only try their best to avoid it. At least, kohlrabi fructus couldn't care less about forcing him to eat this disgusting red sugar pig's feet.
