556 Bullying Children (3)
“Sister-in-law.” Xiao Ruoshui put down the food box with a smile. “My brother was afraid that you would be hungry, so he asked me to bring you food.”
The hot dishes were all Yuan Yuwan’s favorites, and they filled the table.
Yuan Yuwan was a little surprised. “Since when did you know what I like?”
Xiao Ruoshui’s personality was not at all compatible with her name. She was carefree and was not a meticulous person. Yuan Yuwan was a little touched that she could notice this.
“They’re all your favorites?” Xiao Ruoshui was stunned. “My brother only asked me to go to the kitchen to pick up the food boxes, but I didn’t instruct them to do that.”
“That’s what your brother instructed.” Shen Yijia rolled her eyes. At the same time, she was finally relieved by Yuan Yuwan’s marriage.
Yuan Yuwan glanced at You Bai, who shrank back and hid behind Shen Yijia.
There was too much food for Yuan Yuwan to finish alone. Fortunately, Xiao Ruoshui and Shen Yijia had yet to eat, so she pulled the two of them to sit down.
After dinner, the two of them chatted with her for a while before leaving.
“Which courtyard is that Feng person in?” Shen Yijia asked.
Xiao Ruoshui rolled her eyes and pointed in a direction. “She’s in the Magnolia Courtyard. Why are you asking about her?”
“Just curious.”
Shen Yijia looked in the direction she was pointing. It was quite close to here.
Xiao Qirui finally managed to get away from the wine table.
Xiao Li helped him back to the backyard. When they passed a fork in the road, he stopped. One way was to the Magnolia Courtyard, and the other was to the Splendid Courtyard.
Normally, he should have gone to the Splendid Courtyard, but nothing had been normal since his master met Feng Manman.
Xiao Qirui glanced in the Magnolia Courtyard’s direction and pushed Xiao Li away with a frown. “Go and tell Miss Feng to rest early.”
With that, he headed straight for Splendid Courtyard.
Xiao Li reacted and his eyes lit up. He sighed and ran off.
The lights in the new room were still on. Xiao Qirui heaved a sigh of relief. He stroked the nonexistent creases on his clothes and pushed the door open.
When he saw the scene inside, he was stunned.
“There’s nothing interesting about a wedding,” Shen Yijia muttered in Song Jingchen’s arms, feeling extremely sleepy.
The men could still drink and have fun, so she had to listen to the opera with those women.
She felt a headache coming on.
Song Jingchen pursed his lips. “Didn’t you say that you were afraid of being late?”
Shen Yijia puffed up her cheeks. “I hadn’t seen one before today.”
Back then, An Dong’s marriage was much simpler.
The main reason was that she was afraid of having to listen to the opera again.
When the carriage stopped, Mo Yuan reminded her, “Miss, Young Master, we’re home.”
Shen Yijia rubbed her eyes and got out of the car without waiting for Song Jingchen.
Song Jingchen was helpless against her energetic personality. When they entered the residence and saw the people in the courtyard, the two of them were stunned.
“Beautiful Uncle, why are you here?”
In the courtyard, Chu Feng was teaching Sister Huan martial arts, Brother Hao was sitting at the stone table playing chess with Xuanyuan Ce, and the others were not around.
Seeing the two of them, Brother Hao seemed to have seen his savior. He hurriedly put down his chess piece. “Big Brother, Sister-in-law, you’re finally back. This uncle has been waiting for you for a long time.”
Originally, Brother Hao was quite happy when Xuanyuan Ce asked him to play chess with him.
In the end, he realized that this person wasn’t polite at all. He didn’t give him any pointers like Song Jingchen usually did. Xuanyuan Ce simply defeated him again and again.
However, Xuanyuan was not tired of it.
He tortured him for the entire night!
He was still a child. Why did he have to go through this?
Xuanyuan Ce looked at Song Jingchen and tapped the chessboard. “You do it.”
Song Jingchen frowned and walked over to sit at Brother Hao’s original seat. He looked at the chessboard, picked up a chess piece, and nonchalantly placed it down.
Shen Yijia was speechless.
No, was he ignoring her?
The game of chess was quickly over. Brother Hao’s original strategy was too lousy, and Song Jingchen lost.
Xuanyuan Ce did not realize that he had taken advantage of him at all and raised his eyebrows proudly.
Shen Yijia clapped her hands. “Hubby is amazing.”
Xuanyuan Ce said, “He lost.”
“I know.” Shen Yijia turned around. Although she could not understand the process, she could understand the outcome.
“Then you…”
Shen Yijia said matter-of-factly, “Brother Hao played so badly previously. My husband almost turned the tables. Isn’t he very powerful?”
Xuanyuan Ce was speechless.
He had nothing to say.
However, if this kid were to do it from the beginning, it would indeed be different.
He glanced at Brother Hao in disdain. “Did you hear that? You’re too lousy. You should study hard in the future.”
Brother Hao thought to himself, “Why do you keep bullying a child?”
“Didn’t the diplomatic party leave the capital long ago? Why haven’t you left yet, beautiful uncle?” Shen Yijia asked.
Shen Yijia did not pay much attention to the envoy. She only found out about it when Xuanyuan Ziming came to look for her before he left.
Xuanyuan Ce picked up a box on the table and handed it to her. “I haven’t recovered yet. I’ll stay and recuperate. The emperor of Great Xia has also agreed.”
He said the last sentence while looking at Song Jingchen.
