Chapter 96 No Indifference

Su Xueyi's hand stopped on the page of the book she was reading, and she didn't turn the page for a long time.

Shen Yueyao had no idea about this. She was busy making meatballs and preparing sesame paste for seasoning.

After everything is prepared, put oil in the bottom of the pot, add garlic and chili sauce and stir-fry until the oil comes out.

Su Erya really likes to smell this kind of fragrance, "It smells so good, the spicy hot pot must be delicious too."

Just smelling the fragrance makes my mouth water.

"Aunt San, you are amazing. You can cook all kinds of delicious food."

Su Erya's most admired person now is Shen Yueyao.

Even Mrs. Meng, who was watching from the side, had a smile on her face.

Old Madam Meng didn't even notice that she had been laughing more often in the past two days.

If we all work together, we can make delicious food quickly.

The whole family is busy together around the stove, giving a feeling of peace and tranquility.

Shen Yueyao likes this kind of warmth.

After it’s done, each person gets a big bowl of spicy hot pot.

However, the spicy hot pot that Dabao and Erbao ate was made by Shen Yueyao specifically for them. She didn't put any chili in it, but only used prepared sesame paste.

Su Xueyi's legs were not in good condition, so Shen Yueyao brought his bowl into the house for him to eat.

Shen Yueyao placed a small table in front of him.

This small table was made by Zhou Tong with the help of Shen Yueyao, so that Su Xueyi could eat and read in bed.

Very convenient.

"It's a little hot, eat slowly. If you don't have enough, there's more in the pot."

Su Xueyi looked at the large bowl of food and said calmly, "That's enough."

There are a lot of these.

"Then eat more. Everything inside is made with fresh ingredients and freshly prepared."

In this day and age, home-cooked food is clean and hygienic.

Moreover, all vegetables and meats do not contain any technological products and are pure green food.

After serving it to Su Xueyi, Shen Yueyao returned to the kitchen and ate with Madam Meng and the others.

When everyone started eating the spicy hot pot together, Mrs. Meng and Su Erya realized how delicious it was.

Old Madam Meng originally thought that she had tasted all kinds of rare delicacies as a legitimate daughter and later as a concubine.

They had even tasted the delicacies prepared by the imperial chefs when the emperor held banquets in the past.

But I have never eaten this kind of spicy hot pot.

She felt that no other flavor was as delicious as malatang.

No one was busy talking and was busy eating.

Even Dabao and Erbao were very excited.

They think their mother is amazing and the food she cooks is delicious.

Even though it was a little hot, they didn't care and just picked up the food with chopsticks and ate it in big mouthfuls.

Mrs. Meng sighed, "I never knew sesame seeds could be made into sesame paste, and it tastes so good."

"And the fish meatballs are so chewy and smooth."

At this moment, Mrs. Meng seemed to have returned to her youth, eating delicious food and seemed to have forgotten all her worries.

Forgot the experience of being exiled.

Su Erya quickly said, "I like sesame paste too. It tastes so delicious. I didn't expect it to taste so good with sesame paste."

Dabao also said in a sweet voice: "Mom, it's delicious."

Erbao also nodded vigorously, but there was soup at the corners of his mouth.

Looking at their cute appearance, Shen Yueyao couldn't help but take out a handkerchief to wipe the corners of their mouths.

"It's delicious, eat more, but don't overeat."

Put the right amount in their bowls so they don't feel bloated.

While eating, Shen Yueyao couldn't help but look at Dabao and Erbao more.

Thinking about going to the military camp, it would take at least a week to go there and back. She would miss her eldest and second child if she couldn't see them during this week.

After the meal, everyone was very full and comfortable.

Old Madam Meng feels that her life now has purpose. She looks forward to meals every day. After eating, all the fatigue in her body disappears.

You can also have a good sleep at night.

I used to think too much, go to bed hungry, and often couldn’t sleep well.

Madam Meng was grateful to Shen Yueyao in her heart.

After eating, while Shen Yueyao was washing dishes in the yard, she hurried into the house and said to her son: "Xueyi, Yao Niang is a good child, you must treat her well."

"If you spend more time with Yao Niang, you will definitely develop feelings for her. I think this child is much better than the daughters of officials and noble families in the capital who are carefully raised."

"Even if our mansion hadn't been stripped of its title and exiled, there wouldn't be anyone as good as Yao Niang in the capital. Don't be so reluctant to talk. Talk to Yao Niang more."

Old Madam Meng wanted so badly to speak up for her son.

Su Xueyi whispered, "Mother, I know."

Old Madam Meng looked at Su Xueyi, who was as cold and silent as ever, and it seemed that nothing could make him emotional.

She knew her son well, and he had been a sensible and steady person since he was young.

Madam Meng was silent for a while and said, "Xueyi, I feel that Yao Niang is different from before. If one day she has no worries and wants to leave, we have no reason to stop her."

"Our family needs her now. She's kind-hearted and might stay to take care of us, but what about your leg being healed?"

"If your leg is healed, why don't you have a child with Yao Niang?"

In fact, what Mrs. Meng meant was to let her son take the initiative to get close to Yao Niang.

Looking at Su Xueyi, she felt that he and Yao Niang might not have had any intimate behavior for a long time.

Su Xueyi's expression changed and he looked at his mother.

He knew in his heart that his mother had also vaguely guessed something.

His mother was carefully raised by her family since childhood. Later, she became the wife of the marquis and managed the affairs of the marquis's mansion and went out for social events. She actually understood much more.

"Mom, don't worry, just take good care of yourself."

"Look, you don't say anything. How can I not be anxious? You should at least tell your mother what you are thinking, even if it's just a little bit." Old Madam Meng was very anxious.

In fact, if Shen Yueyao didn't go far away, she wouldn't be in a hurry, but now Shen Yueyao is going far away.

"Look, Yao Niang has lost some weight now. She will become more beautiful slowly. Her way of speaking doesn't sound like she comes from an ordinary family. People will always notice her good qualities."

"Look, when we went fishing in the river today, even Lin Chi took the initiative to help catch fish. Even though you can't do anything now, you should at least be gentle to Yao Niang."

Su Xueyi sighed helplessly and said, "Mom, I'm not indifferent."

If she were to stay, Su Xueyi would always feel that she was a soaring eagle, not someone who could be restrained.

Unless she is willing to stay, but he can't give her anything now.

All the promises now are empty. Only when he stands on a high position again will he be qualified to say something.

Even just this one sentence made Madam Meng breathe a sigh of relief, "That's good, that's good."

After all, this son is not born cold-hearted.

Mrs. Meng's eyes were red.

She was indeed worried because the eldest son's wife's family background was not as good as theirs, but she thought that as long as the eldest son liked her, it would be fine. She considered herself a good mother-in-law and was good to her daughter-in-law. But when something happened in the Marquis's Mansion, the eldest son's wife left them without a word and didn't even want Daya.

Such a cruel heart.

Because of this incident, the boss became disheartened. Although he went to the military camp for the Su family, it was hard to guarantee that he did not take his life seriously.

If Daya hadn't been there, she would have been worried that the eldest brother wouldn't be able to hold on.

So even though she was heartbroken that Daya had become like this, she couldn't blame her entirely.

The child was influenced by her mother.

There was also the second son and his wife. Both of them were good people, but they were still a little weak and died early.

Now she is the third child, so she hopes that her third son and daughter-in-law are doing well.

Only when they live in harmony can she feel at ease.
