Capítulo 1966: Sticky Sweet
“If you’re going to talk about official matters, don’t sit here.”
Princess Anle glared unhappily at her husband and son, clearly displeased with their discussing state affairs at ho.
Before anyone could speak, Xia Yuan had already snorted first, glaring at Xia Zheng: “You little brat! You know your mother doesn’t like to hear about these things, yet you still brought it up, how infuriating! Hurry up and apologize to your mother!”
Lin Yuan twitched her mouth; although Xia Zheng brought up the topic, the actual comntary ca from Xia Yuan, right!
What a father!
No, it’s more like what a husband, letting his son take the fall, this is really too much.
After chatting for a while, Dong i ca in and reported that lunch was ready.
Actually, everyone had gotten up very late in the morning and had a late breakfast, so lunch ti was naturally pushed back.
Since it was Lin Yuan’s first formal al at the house, the lunch was prepared abundantly, with four cold dishes alone, and eight hot dishes, both at and vegetarian. Of course, that’s not counting the pastries and soups.
Looking at the table filled with dishes several tis more than at ho, Lin Yuan was a bit speechless. There were only a few of them, do they really need to eat so much? It’s truly extravagant.
If it were a regular day with Lao Fan, the foodie, around, perhaps half of the table could be cleared. But today, not only is the strongest combat power absent, even the rest of them aren’t very hungry, so it looks like a lot will be left over.
As expected, just as Lin Yuan anticipated, they barely touched their chopsticks.
If anyone ate the most, it was probably the pregnant Tian Hui, but even this “most” was just relative to Lin Yuan and the others.
She was sure that even if Shui Xian or Yin Xing were here, they would eat more than this group.
In the General Mansion, the head of the family is the undefeated War God of Dayong, Xia Yuan, and the Madam is a current princess, so by rights, the family rules should be quite strict.
Even if Princess Anle felt pity for her daughters-in-law, not letting them stand by her to learn the rules, shouldn’t the rule of ‘no talking while eating, no speaking in bed’ be followed?
Unexpectedly even this rule was broken.
Xia Zheng was helping Lin Yuan with dishes and serving her soup, even personally feeding her.
At first, Lin Yuan was quite uncomfortable, blushing as she glared at him, even secretly stepping on his foot.
But as it went on, she began to relax.
Because, around the whole table, it was pretty much the sa scenario.
Tian Hui was pregnant, so Xia Zhen’s care and affection for her was understandable.
Xia Zheng and Lin Yuan were newlyweds, in their passionate phase, so being glued together like this was also normal.
But what’s with that old couple across the table who’ve been married for over twenty years yet still feeding each other?!
In front of their sons and daughters-in-law, and the servants, being so clingy, is that really okay?
Lin Yuan watched speechlessly as Xia Yuan personally peeled the shrimp and then fed it to Princess Anle.
Despite Xia Yuan’s fierceness and decisiveness on the battlefield, when he returns ho, those hands accustod to wielding a blade can also peel shrimp.
And it must be admitted, his skill was quite adept; the peeled shrimp was intact and clean, even the vein ticulously removed.
What shocked Lin Yuan the most wasn’t even the shrimp peeling, but Xia Yuan actually wiping Princess Anle’s mouth with a napkin after feeding her, with a doting expression, as if they were a newlywed couple.
Xia Yuan’s actions were entirely natural, as if they were things he often did.
And Xia Zhen, Xia Zheng, and even Tian Hui seed to take no notice, seemingly long accustod to such sights.
Before getting married, Lin Yuan had also stayed in the General Mansion for als.
However, at that ti, Xia Yuan was seldom at the mansion, and even if he was, he rarely dined with them, so Lin Yuan was unaware of their warm side.
Lin Yuan was astounded and envious at the sa ti.
It’s not easy to pamper soone into a habit, no wonder Yao Hanai would rather sacrifice her reputation to sche to marry Xia Zheng and enter the General Mansion. Such a harmonious and intrigue-free family, what woman wouldn’t want to marry in?
It’s just a pity that won as scheming as Yao Hanai don’t have the fortune to co in.
