Gu Qingyao said, “In the future, Old Master needs to eat medicinal dishes more often while Old Madam needs lighter dishes. As for Rui Rui and the others, young people like more heavily-seasoned dishes. They’re still growing and must have enough nutrition!”
The lady nodded and made note of it.
That afternoon, the dishes were laid out on the table. Everyone was back for lunch. It was a rest day, and Mo Chengrui and the others did not need to go to school.
Mo Beihan carried the Old Master’s food upstairs. “Have lunch with your aunt. I’ll bring the food to Grandfather.”
The younger ones assented and sat down to lunch.
The younger ones almost cried when they saw the dishes on the table!
Life with Young Aunt was better!
In the years that Aunt had been away, they did not eat as well as they had in their hometown!
Mu Mu looked at the laden tables and asked hopefully, “Aunt, will we be able to eat like that every day when you marry into the Mo family?”
He was not a child any longer. He usually appeared to be more mature, and his boyish side only appeared in Gu Qingyao’s presence.
Gu Qingyao smiled. “If you want to eat these, you can just tell the lady who works in the kitchen. She’ll make sure that you don’t lack anything.”
While they gobbled their food, Mo Chengjing, who seldom spoke, said, “She doesn’t cook as well as you. But if you have to keep cooking for us, Young Uncle will probably drive us out.”

The other three nodded solemnly.
Gu Qingyao: “…”
There was one else around. Grandma Mo’s food had been sent upstairs too. She was keeping Old Master Mo company. Only Mo Chengrui, his brothers, and Gu Qingyao were in the living room.
As they were talking and laughing, Jiang Hongying and Mo Yunhao returned. Bai Youran followed behind them, her expression ugly.
Jiang Hongying had been busy outside all day. When she returned to see these irritating people eating and drinking, she immediately turned livid.
“Who gave you permission to eat? Your elders are not yet back. Don’t you know how to wait? Rude creatures.”
Mu Mu looked up. “Second Madam, you’re back! Quick, sit down and eat! Aunt’s cooking is great. Hurry and try it!”
Mu Mu did not look angry at all but instead greeted her as if nothing was amiss.
The servants hurriedly brought out bowls and chopsticks.
Jiang Hongying almost choked on her rage.
The other children bowed their heads and ate silently.
Really! You’ve hardly been back for the past two days, and you’re not home at mealtimes. How would we know that you would come back just in time for lunch today!
You were so smug and arrogant when you were rich. Now that things have gone wrong, you act like an old harpy, as if the whole world owes you something.
They could not be bothered to argue with her.
It was like punching cotton wool. They acted like nothing was amiss. Jiang Hongying almost fainted with rage.
Mo Yunhao had much better behaved for the past few days. He had been running around all morning but had not managed to raise a single cent. Now he was ravenous.
When he saw such good food, he hurriedly sat down to eat.
Bai Youran stood right at the back. When she saw Gu Qingyao, she pursed her lips tightly. She had yet to recover from her discovery that Gu Qingyao was the Qiao family’s granddaughter.

Upstairs, in the bedroom.
Old Master Mo was eating as he said to Mo Yunhao, “Suppress Yunhao’s matter for now. We’ll talk about it after you and Yao Yao are married.

“No matter what Yunhao is like, he is still the Mo family’s grandson. Jiang Hongying and your father have stayed in the Mo family for so many years. It’s not nice to chase them away before your wedding.
“The entire family will be there. Just go through the wedding ceremony peacefully, and I’ll take care of matters after that.”
Mo Beihan nodded and agreed. “Understood!”
