Chapter 43 Osmanthus Cake

"When I saw you rushing to the lake to save people without hesitation," Song Wushao said, "I knew you were not Xu Miaomiao."

After saying that, Song Wu Shao was a little tangled again, and changed his words: "Perhaps, you are not the original you."

Xu Miaomiao was speechless and didn't know what to say for a moment.

After a long while, he slowly opened his mouth and uttered: "Then do you want to find a Taoist priest to get rid of me?"

Xu Miaomiao thought about it carefully. In her situation, it was not realistic to let Song Wushao kill her. Then the only feasible way was to find a Taoist priest and kill her?

When Song Wu Shao heard this, he was speechless for a moment: "I won't hurt you."

"Really?" Xu Miaomiao tilted her head and looked at him in confusion.

Song Wu Shao nodded softly.

"Then no matter who you are, you are not allowed to kill me. You are not allowed to chop off my limbs and soak them in a wine jar."

Seeing the woman's eager eyes wanting him to agree, Song Wushao was stunned. Did he look so sinister? Would he torture someone to death so cruelly?

Looking at the little woman's expression, Song Wu Shao was confused but still nodded.

Seeing that he agreed, Xu Miaomiao breathed a sigh of relief. The big boss should not go back on his word. Shaking her head, the sadness that Xu Miaomiao had just felt was swept away, and she hummed a little tune.

Glancing at the dim sum shop owner who was about to close up his stall, Xu Miaomiao hurried over.

"Boss, I want three boxes of osmanthus cake."

Hearing what she said, Song Wu Shao frowned. According to her personality, she would give one box to the child, one box to Song Weiwei, and one box to Gu Yuanniang. Wouldn't she eat it herself?

"The boss wants four boxes."

Song Wu Shao suddenly spoke, and Xu Miaomiao tilted her head and looked at him curiously.

Song Wu Shao touched his head awkwardly: "I want to eat."

"Oh." Xu Miaomiao nodded.

Just as he was about to pay, he was stopped by Song Wushao. The man took out a few pieces of silver from his sleeve and put them on the shop counter: "I'll pay."

The boss nearby saw this and jokingly said, "Oh, your husband loves you so much."

Before Xu Miaomiao could refute, Song Wushao blurted out thank you. This sentence made her lower her head even deeper. She had just talked about their relationship with Song Wushao. Logically speaking, they should be living together now. After Song Wushao agreed to this, she lowered her head in embarrassment and was speechless.

The two of them were holding umbrellas, and their figures were getting farther and farther away.

As soon as she returned to the room, Xu Miaomiao smelled a fragrance.

Following the smell, I found Gu Yuanniang who was cooking.

Song Weiwei was holding Ling'er and coaxing him, while Gu Yuan's mother was busy cooking.

Xu Miaomiao felt a warm current in her heart. It was so comfortable to have food to eat when she got home.

"Sixth Lady, thank you for your hard work."

Xu Miaomiao took the cooked dishes and put them on the table, then turned around and looked at Gu Yuanniang and said.

"Oh, it was Ling'er and I who troubled you. I haven't had the chance to thank you yet." Gu Yuanniang responded.

"My life is no better than the one I lead in the mansion of a nobleman." Xu Miaomiao suddenly said, "I'm sorry for wronging you."

"If you keep saying that, I won't be able to stay here." Gu Yuanniang said coquettishly.

"Okay, Sixth Lady, I won't say anything more."

The two of them joked around for a while before sitting down at the table and starting to eat.

"Good sister, try my dish." As she said that, Gu Yuanniang picked up a piece of rabbit meat and put a piece in each of Xu Miaomiao and Song Weiwei's bowls.

"Mm, it smells good." Song Weiwei responded.

Xu Miaomiao also took a sip and found it tasted indeed unique. She smiled and nodded.

"Eat more if you like."

Song Wu Shao suddenly spoke, breaking the wonderful atmosphere. He picked up a piece of meat and put it in Xu Miaomiao's bowl.

Now everyone was confused and had their own thoughts.

Oh my god, is my brother picking food for her? When did they care so much about her? Song Weiwei was stunned.

Oh my god, is Song Wushao picking food for me? Are the stories I tell every night effective? Xu Miaomiao was also stunned.

Oh my God, when will I be able to meet such a good man, Gu Yuan's mother thought secretly, with tears welling up in her eyes.

When Song Wu Shao saw that they suddenly fell silent, he awkwardly took back his chopsticks and started eating.

The dining trip finally ended in a weird atmosphere.

When it was time to go to bed at night, Xu Miaomiao would hug her quilt and squeeze together with Erbao early in the morning.

As soon as Song Wu Shao came in, he saw the woman with her head down, unwilling to talk to him, and he was confused for a moment.

The second baby fell asleep early and was even snoring in bed.

Song Wushao lowered his voice and looked at Xu Miaomiao in confusion: "Are you still angry?"

Xu Miaomiao was stunned. Why was she angry? Hadn't they already confessed? Why was she angry?

Seeing that the woman didn't speak, Song Wu Shao concluded that she was still angry that he didn't tell her earlier. Knowing that she was not Xu Miaomiao, he took out the osmanthus flowers and placed them in front of Xu Miaomiao.

Xu Miaomiao was a little confused: "Don't you want to eat?"

Song Wu Shao's expression relaxed, and he almost couldn't hold it in: "It's too late and you'll get fat. I'll give it to you."

What? What does that mean? If he thinks she is fat, doesn’t she think so too?

Xu Miaomiao muttered to herself, then ate the osmanthus cake angrily.

Looking at the woman's puffed cheeks, Song Wu Shao felt relieved. He really wanted to pinch her.

Xu Miaomiao stared at him and raised one hand to his face. What does the big boss want to do? Xu Miaomiao chewed the osmanthus cake while looking at Song Wushao.

Finally, Song Wushao took action and pinched Xu Miaomiao's cheek hard.

Xu Miaomiao puffed and the osmanthus cake in her mouth sprayed out, landing accurately on Song Wushao's face.

Looking at the man's face covered with pastry crumbs, Xu Miaomiao almost laughed. He deserved it. It was his own fault for pinching her. He asked for it.

"Mother, what's wrong?"

Erbao beside him opened his sleepy eyes. Xu Miaomiao was startled and quickly patted Erbao on the head: "Be good, Erbao, go to sleep quickly."

Erbao murmured coquettishly and sniffed hard: "Mom smells so good, she smells like osmanthus."

Hearing this, Xu Miaomiao looked at Song Wushao shyly. It was all because of him that she lost face in front of the child!

She covered her head with the quilt, turned her back and ignored the man behind her.

Song Wu Shao looked at her back as she lay on the bed. It felt like there was a little man in his heart jumping for joy. He murmured good night before closing his eyes.

Early in the morning, Xu Miaomiao cheered up, carried her small frame on her back and prepared to go to the mountains to find some herbs.

Looking at the big tree in front of her where she had picked up rabbits twice, she decided to wait and see, just in case there was a blind rabbit.

Xu Miaomiao thought to herself, and sure enough, a fat and tender rabbit ran straight over and crashed into the big tree in front of her.
