Chapter 394 A mouthful of food caused trouble

Porridge, cakes, barbecue, cheese, bread, all kinds of exquisite dishes filled a large table.

Looking at these strange foods, Song Liyun widened her eyes: They haven't been delivered for a long time, and now there are so many things. I won't be able to finish them even if I starve for three days!

Just as she was about to find someone to ask, she saw Aunt Li walking towards her, as graceful as last time, but she was dressed in plain clothes, without any makeup, looking a little haggard, and she was not accompanied by her two concubines.

As soon as she saw Song Liyun, she smiled apologetically: "Miss Song, did you sleep well last night? It was my fault a few days ago. Madam used to take care of the household chores, and I only served her and neglected Anhua Courtyard. I frightened Miss, and my master scolded me and even wanted to sell me as punishment... Miss, can you forgive me?"

Song Liyun looked at the food on the table, then at Aunt Li who was obviously blocking her way, and raised her eyebrows: She would do such a thing just for a word of forgiveness, starving herself to beg for it first. The women in this house are really capable of doing this!

She smiled faintly, "There's no need for Aunt Li to apologize. It's inevitable that there were oversights during the chaos the night before. Besides, Aunt Li made contributions, so she should ask the garrison commander for a reward! Don't you agree, Aunt Li?"

Aunt Li looked embarrassed. What Song Liyun said seemed to make sense, but how could she dare to ask for it?

Zhao Tinglei was so angry that he almost kicked her over. Besides, he was very busy these past two days and she had no time to look for him.

Seeing her pale face, Song Liyun knew that she had not yet passed Zhao Tinglei's test.

She didn't care about the couple's quarrel. Eating was the most important thing. So she walked around Aunt Li and came to the table. Just as she was about to sit down, Aunt Li stopped her again: "Miss Song, you have to wait a little longer!"

"Still waiting? Aunt Li, how do you want to play?"

Song Liyun's eyebrows suddenly raised. He didn't send it to her at first, but now he sent it to her and she can only look at it. Is he making fun of her just because she doesn't want to care about it?

Aunt Li hurriedly shook her head: "No, the adults are coming soon, and we can't touch these plates.

Miss Song, if these maids saw you, they would laugh at you."

Song Liyun then remembered that the little girl had said that Zhao Tinglei was coming over for dinner. She frowned and muttered, "What a hassle! Is he going to starve to death in Hecheng?"

As soon as the voice fell, the maids outside the door could be heard greeting each other: "My Lord!" "Third Master!" "Master Song" "Master Lin"

There was another flurry of footsteps, and it was obvious that there were a lot of people coming.

Aunt Li was already waiting by the door, having cleverly opened the curtain. Only Song Liyun, who knew nothing, stood by the table, looking stupidly at the group of people rushing in.

The first time they saw Song Liyun, Zhao Tinglei's face darkened and Zhao Tingduo was stunned.

Lin Qingyuan raised his eyebrows and laughed out loud: "Oh, what did I see today! The cakes in the garrison are so delicious that even Miss Song started to steal some!"

Song Dekui shook his head and sighed: "Xiaoyun, no matter how much you want to eat, wait a while, don't be so greedy!"

When Song Liyun saw Zhao Tingduo suddenly appear, her eyes lit up, but she covered her mouth and started coughing. She couldn't speak and could only stare blankly.

Zhao Tingduo couldn't help laughing. With a smile on her face, she quickly walked to Song Liyun's side. While helping her massage her back, she brought the milk tea on the table and said, "Eat slowly and have a sip of tea!"

Song Liyun was already choking at this time. Without saying anything, she took the milk tea and took a sip before swallowing the small crispy biscuit in her mouth: "Oh, I almost choked to death!"

She was very hungry just now. When she saw Aunt Li walking to the door, she quickly picked up a piece of cake from the plate and stuffed it into her mouth.

Unexpectedly, the people who came in included not only Zhao Tinglei and Lin Qingyuan, but also Zhao Tingduo. He was so anxious that he choked.

Zhao Tinglei didn't look at Song Liyun. He just pulled Zhao Tingduo to sit at the dinner table and said, "Third brother returned home at night, and I should have prepared a good meal. But I've been busy with official duties recently, so I can only have a simple meal with you."

Zhao Tingduo glanced at Song Liyun. At this moment, everyone was watching, so he had to suppress all his concern.

"Brother, you have official business to attend to, so don't be polite. Just eat something casually..."

Zhao Tinglei raised his hand to stop him from saying anything more: "Hey! Come and eat quickly, there are people waiting outside." Then he gestured to Lin Qingyuan, Song Dekui and others to sit down next to him.

Aunt Li stuffed a copper kettle into the hands of Song Liyun, who had just caught her breath, and said, "Miss Song, pour tea for these gentlemen!"

Song Liyun looked at her as if she were a monster, and Aunt Li felt a little scared: "Miss Song, pour the tea! Can't you see that the young masters are looking at you? Don't embarrass the Third Young Master!"

"Look at me?" Song Liyun suddenly realized and chuckled, "Madam Li, you're still trying to do this to me. It's really ridiculous!"

She turned to look at Lin Qingyuan, who was closest to her: "Mr. Lin, would you like me to pour you some tea?"

Lin Qingyuan waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no!"

He sat next to Zhao Tingduo and asked Song Liyun to stand beside him and pour him tea and wine... Forget it, he still wanted to live a few more days.

Song Liyun stuffed the copper pot into Lin Qingyuan's arms and said, "Make room for me. I want to eat too!"

Lin Qingyuan jumped up as if his butt was on fire: "Sit down!"

Song Liyun sat in Lin Qingyuan's seat without hesitation.

Beside them, Zhao Tinglei and Zhao Tingduo had stopped talking and looked over.

Zhao Tingduo's face darkened. He pulled Song Liyun aside and asked, "You haven't eaten yet?"

Song Liyun picked up a piece of food and took a bite before slowly saying, "Do you know why you saw me eating when you came in just now? It's because I'm hungry.

I've been hungry since I went to bed last night. I only had two plates of snacks this morning and I'm starving.

Now I have to stand and pour tea for you guys!"

She looked at Zhao Tinglei and said, "Master Garrison, you starve people to death and still want them to serve you. You eat while I watch, you sit while I stand. Is this the way you treat guests in this Garrison?"

The handsome Lin Qingyuan stood aside holding a teapot, and looked at Aunt Li with a look of shock.

He was used to seeing his aunt and the wife of the main house fighting each other, but he had never seen anyone fighting with his brother's wife, especially in this kind of situation.

Tsk tsk tsk! The general's woman is indeed different, at least she is not afraid of death.

Song Dekui frowned, pursed his lips, and hesitated to speak. He finally said, "Xiaoyun, you've been starving like this until now? And you still want to set rules?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Tinglei slammed his chopsticks and said, "Li Yu Niang, you didn't bring the morning tea to this courtyard?"

He didn't dare let Song Dekui continue speaking. Setting rules for meals was the job of a concubine!

The scene where Zhao Tingduo gave Song Li cloud tea just now made him realize that the relationship between the two was not an ordinary engaged couple.

It was almost noon. He had just been discussing matters with his third brother in the study and had told them in advance that they would have lunch here so they could make preparations early.

If my third brother knew that the women in the inner house tortured Song Liyun in this way and told Madam Wu Ya, I don’t know what kind of trouble would happen.

Aunt Li was also shocked by Song Liyun's words.

She was upset by Song Liyun's contemptuous attitude towards concubines, so she wanted to get back at him.

The last time I didn’t arrange for a maid, it was because I accidentally ran into the Qi family’s kidnapping. It won’t happen again this time.

She thought that with these male guests present, Song Liyun must behave dignified and graceful as a mistress, and would endure even if she was hungry.

I didn't expect that without even a word of concealment, my little trick was exposed.
