During dinner tonight, Qingyin noticed that there were more meat dishes on the table.

It seems that Nan Chu also has a carnivorous appetite.

Nan Chu looked at the table. He had only eaten a few bites of beef, picked up a few chopsticks of vegetables, and drunk a small bowl of porridge. He felt full. His wife put down her chopsticks and frowned slightly.

No wonder she looks so thin, she eats so little.

Nan Chu looked at Qing Yin, picked up a piece of tender beef with serving chopsticks, and put it into Qing Yin's bowl.

Qingyin tilted her head in confusion.

Nan Chu was momentarily charmed by his wife's actions. He pursed his lips and said, "You're too thin. Eat more."

"Yes, thank you."

Qingyin hesitated for a moment. Although she was already full, she still ate the piece of beef that Nan Chu had picked up.

Seeing Qingyin's actions, Nan Chu's lips curled up slightly.

The wife's attitude clearly showed that she was willing to accept her own fate.

After eating the beef that Nan Chu had picked up, Qingyin was completely full and couldn't eat anymore.

Nan Chu observed her expression and did not press the matter further. He secretly resolved to stay at the manor whenever possible, to dine with his wife properly, and to try to fatten her up.

It will feel better to the touch.

Thinking of this, Nan Chu's ears, which were hidden by her hair, turned red.

...

Without Qingyin, Nan Chu, the male protagonist, obviously ate much faster, and within a few minutes he had almost finished the remaining dishes on the table.

His appetite made Qingyin sigh that her husband was a military general.

After finishing the meal, and with the presence of the beautiful and alluring Fujin (wife) in the room, Nan Chu successfully ate until he was stuffed.

Feeling the fullness in his stomach, Nan Chu looked at Qing Yin somewhat awkwardly: "We just finished eating, why don't you come with me to digest?"

"Okay, sure."

The two walked one after the other into the back garden of the courtyard, one admiring the scenery and the other observing people, creating a harmonious scene.

Nan Chu stared intently at Qingyin beside him, his gaze falling on the Fujin's fair, oval face with immense satisfaction.

Just looking at his wife made him feel happy.

No wonder those men liked to marry a princess.

After digesting his food, Nan Chu still didn't have the nerve to stay in his wife Xiangxiang's courtyard.

Reluctantly, she left the East Courtyard under Qingyin's watchful gaze.

Having learned something from this experience, Nan Chu made it a habit to stay at the mansion every day, have a meal with Qingyin, and then hurriedly go back to his duty.

Miao Se wanted to tell his older brother how outstanding he was at work, but he was afraid of bothering him. However, when he casually asked Manager Li who was passing by, he learned that his older brother had been having lunch at home before going to work.

Miao Se was shocked.

Is this really his older brother? Or is it an imposter?

His older brother, a workaholic, who wished he could stay in the office for 48 hours a day, now actually has time to spend with that princess!

"Second Young Master is joking. It's only because the Eldest Young Master got married and came to understand the relationship between men and women, and liked his wife, that he was willing to have lunch with her."

Manager Li said with a cheerful smile.

Miao Se listened, and then realized that she had actually spoken her mind.

When Manager Li said that his elder brother stayed because of his nominal sister-in-law, Miao Se was initially skeptical, but after thinking about it, she realized that it was actually the most logical answer.

Miao Se touched her chin.

Could it be that my elder brother really likes that wife that much?

Miao Se suddenly became curious about the Crown Prince's wife. He made up his mind and asked Steward Li, "Uncle Li, what does that Bo, sister-in-law, look like?"

Miao Se, who was used to calling that woman Borjigit, suddenly realized that the person in front of her was Uncle Li, an elder who valued her elder brother's wife. She abruptly changed her address.

Although Steward Li had not yet seen the Fujin's true appearance, based on his experience, he still praised Qingyin a few times: "Of course the Fujin is beautiful and virtuous, that's why the eldest son likes her."

Miao Se pursed her lips. "Her features are delicate, but that means she's just average-looking. Her temperament is virtuous, but that means she's all about propriety." In her mind, Miao Se pictured a delicate woman dressed in a qipao, full of propriety, being greeted by her elder brother with a beaming smile.

Imagining that scene, Miao Se shuddered. It was too terrifying, whether it was the smiling older brother or the sister-in-law who was full of rules.

Miao Se simply couldn't imagine how her older brother could fall for a woman who was full of rules, had an average appearance, and was also a woman who had given birth.

Feeling somewhat down, the eldest brother left the mansion in frustration, having not even looked for his daughter at home.

Inside private room number two of the restaurant on East West Street.

Miao Se casually poured another pot of wine into his mouth, while several empty wine bottles were scattered on the table next to him.

Yu Lu, who had come specifically to pay for his friend's appointment, skillfully walked to a private room in the hotel. As soon as he opened the door, he smelled the strong aroma of alcohol.

He clicked his tongue and said, "Miao Se, how much have you been drinking? What happened to you?"

Miao Se, her eyes still blurry with drunkenness, glanced at him in a state of barely conscious awareness. "Ha, mind your own business."

Yu Lu was furious. He strode up to Miao Se, put his hand on Miao Se's shoulder, and said, "Hey kid, don't be so arrogant. We have so many good brothers, but I'm the only one who's willing to take a beating from my dad and skip class to be with you. And you're still talking about me? Are we even good brothers?"

"Yes, that's right." Miao Se nodded perfunctorily, preparing to take another sip of wine.

"Are you crazy?"

Yu Lu asked in shock and quickly snatched the wine from Miao Se's hand.

“Your older brother has been at home lately. If he comes back and finds you've been drinking, he'll skin you alive.”
