Chapter 526: Forcibly Interrupting
“Fantastic!” Cui Jiangjing’s brows lifted and his eyes smiled in the mont; he knew today’s al wouldn’t be wasted. He picked up his chopsticks and began to guess what was on the dining table.
It was laden with a full spread of dishes, so spicy and so not.
“Let think, the Yuanbao Pigeon Soup, I know that one, must be Mrs. Lin’s cooking. This is Mrs. Lin’s specialty, and it takes quite a while to prepare. Miss Rong wouldn’t have had the ti to make it since she arrived, so this one goes to Mrs. Lin.”
His long, narrow peach blossom eyes then darted to the side, to the fiercely spicy boiled beef slices, “This one…”
Shen Siyuan looked on, unwilling to accept that the atmosphere was becoming lively, and it was entirely opposite of the kind of liveliness she wanted to see!
She frowned, staring at Rong Yan for a while before suddenly interjecting, “These spicy boiled beef slices must have been made by the new chef, right?”
“This chef really doesn’t know better, why make it so spicy? Didn’t the butler tell him in advance that Mrs. Lin and Shengxiao Brother don’t eat spicy food? Especially Shengxiao Brother, he always had a weak stomach and can’t eat anything spicy. To think that he would still use so many chilies and make such a spicy dish!”
No sooner had she spoken than the atmosphere, which was about to liven up, ca to an abrupt halt!
Li Duidui had been enduring until now, but she couldn’t bear it any longer. She directly picked a piece of the spicy boiled beef in front of Shen Siyuan and said with a milky voice, “I like it, I love spicy food the most!”
Cui Jiangjing also jumped in to smooth things over, “The spicy boiled beef slices are good, I quite like this dish too. Aren’t there non-spicy dishes on the table? Not everyone can’t eat spicy food. Besides, all these dishes were made by Mrs. Lin and Miss Rong, where did this chef you’re ntioning co from, Siyuan? You are being quite impolite.”
He had preempted Li Shengxiao in speaking up to Shen Siyuan, fearing that when that man spoke, it would make her look even worse.
Lin Zhiya’s smile also faded at this point, and her clear eyes looked at Shen Siyuan, calmly stating, “Siyuan, I know you’re not the kind of rude child, but you did indeed say the wrong thing this ti. I’ve already said to let them guess who made which dish between and Yan, yet you accused it of being made by a chef, what do you an? Are you calling a chef?”
“That’s not what I ant…” Seeing that she was genuinely angry with her, Shen Siyuan quickly waved her hands in explanation, “I thought, I thought there were also dishes made by a chef, so that’s why… I didn’t realize everything was made by Mrs. Lin and… Miss Rong together.”
Lin Zhiya didn’t want to spoil the first al her daughter-in-law had at their ho, so she didn’t pursue the issue further and resud smiling, inviting everyone to eat, “Co on, let’s eat, the dishes will get cold.”
Shen Siyuan always felt that she was excluded from the dining table, even though she was sitting there, it was as if the people at the table had collectively isolated her.
But this ti, even Cui Jiangjing didn’t seem inclined to help her smooth things over.
The al was eaten in a heavy and awkward silence and was finally over.
After the servant cleaned up the dining table, maybe because Lin Zhiya didn’t want Rong Yan to stay with Shen Siyuan, she took the initiative to say, “Yan, co with to make fruit tea, we haven’t finished the previous batch yet, I’ll teach you what to do next.”
“Okay.” Rong Yan, in the face of Shen Siyuan’s provocation, had remained calm and composed the whole ti, without uttering a single word. Once Lin Zhiya called her, she patted Little Baby’s head and headed to the kitchen, contrasting her grace with Shen Siyuan’s earlier unreasonable provocation, which seed all the more excessive.
