My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts Chapter 165 - 57 Half Moon Passed3
Du Xixi had never been involved with such matters of power, so upon hearing about it, she felt intrigued and reminded Ke Lian, "You must manage your confidants well."
As the ruler, Chen Yin’s power spans the entire Empire, while Ke Lian, despite being the Imperial Marshal, mainly holds authority within the Military Departnt. However, in this world, conflicts often arise, whether from the Insect Clan or other empires, making the Military Departnt the protector of the Empire.
If power under Ke Lian’s command is misused, causing chaos, the penalties Ke Lian might face are secondary; the real concern is how much harm it might bring to the Empire.
Ke Lian gently ruffled Du Xixi’s soft hair, his gaze firm and serious, "Don’t worry, I won’t allow such things to happen under my watch!"
Ke Lian also has his pride; even if he truly trusts those confidants, he would sacrifice his personal ti to handle all military affairs himself for the Empire, even if it ans missing his small family.
If necessary, he could manage military tasks at ho, in the place where Du Xixi resides. Perhaps his efficiency would even improve.
When Ke Lian arrived, Miao Miao and 2569 wisely left after setting down the water, not disturbing the couple’s sweet monts, and only ca to call them when it was ti for dinner.
After dinner, just as Du Xixi stood up, she noticed a video call request on her Light Computer. Upon opening it, it turned out to be from Mo Ying, whom she hadn’t seen in over ten days.
Du Xixi furrowed her brows and quickly counted the days in her mind, realizing that including today, fourteen days had passed. That ant Mo Ying and Ye Wenting were getting married tomorrow!
Du Xixi sat back down, and as Ke Lian approached the video call, Mo Ying and Ye Wenting appeared on the projection.
"Xixi! Marshal!" Mo Ying greeted Du Xixi and Ke Lian brightly, her smile exceptionally sweet, confirming Du Xixi’s suspicion that Mo Ying wanted to discuss the wedding details.
"Hello, Sister Mo Ying, Brother-in-law." Du Xixi also smiled and greeted them, glancing at the background of the video call. Not recognizing the Mo Family ho, she guessed it might be Ye Wenting’s place or their marital ho.
And indeed it was. When Ye Wenting heard Du Xixi call him brother-in-law, his genteel smile brightened with the radiance of impending marriage. Holding Mo Ying’s hand, he said, "My dear, Mo Ying and I have moved into our newly purchased marital ho, and we’d like to invite you two over for dinner tomorrow."
In the Star Era, there wasn’t a custom of holding grand wedding ceremonies with banquets; when Du Xixi and Ke Lian got married, they simply inford a few close friends and family. Du Xixi even drank her personalized Nutrition Supplent at ho before being picked up by Ke Xing to the Ke Family.
Mo Ying and Ye Wenting might have been influenced by Du Xixi; happy days were celebrated with good food, and sad days too, so naturally, their joyful wedding day also called for a delicious feast.
Mo Ying’s cooking skills weren’t top-notch, but creating a table full of dishes for the evening banquet was just manageable.
Du Xixi was inclined to agree imdiately, but Ke Lian hesitated, thinking that with Du Xixi’s current condition, it was alright to walk at ho, but he felt a bit uneasy about her going out.
Noticing Ke Lian’s apprehension, Mo Ying laughed confidently, "Don’t worry, Marshal! Can you guess where Wen Teng and my marital ho is located?"
Du Xixi’s eyelid twitched, intuitively asking, "Could it be..."
"That’s right!" Mo Ying, dressed in a long white dress, leaned against Ye Wenting, laughing heartily, "Wen Teng and I bought the house in the sa neighborhood as yours, just behind yours, less than two hundred ters away!"
The Mo Family and Ye Family were both wealthy and influential; acquiring a villa in this complex was no big deal for them. The union of the Mo family’s eldest daughter and the Ye family’s eldest son made getting such a villa a piece of cake.
When Mo Ying initially chose the marital ho with Ye Wenting, she imdiately wanted it close to the Ke Family. Since Mo Ying only had Du Xixi as a close female friend, Ye Wenting, without friends as a research enthusiast, naturally listened to his wife’s wishes.
Their thoughts aligned perfectly, leading them to purchase the house near the Ke Family.
Being nearby, within a well-secured villa complex, and having Ke Lian accompany Du Xixi over for dinner ensured there wouldn’t be any unexpected issues.
Ke Lian finally nodded and warmly said, "In that case, Xixi and I will arrive on ti tomorrow."
"Is it just us?" Du Xixi blinked, only to see Mo Ying on the projection pull out a list from sowhere, clearly indicating more than just Du Xixi and Ke Lian.
