Shen Yingying and Ouyang Yuqing ate with gusto, their mouths greasy, and after they were full, there was still half a roast duck left in the food box.
There was still half a chicken left in the ginseng chicken soup, and we won't mention the vegetarian dishes.
After finishing her meal, Shen Yingying wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief.
Then he said to the jailer, "Jailer, we haven't touched the other half of this roast duck and chicken soup. It's a waste to throw it away."
If you don't mind, you can take it back and share it.
Su Degui, the second cellmate, was drooling over the roast duck in the opposite cell. When he heard that the food was to be shared with the cell boss, he refused to share any with them.
Enraged, he said to Shen Yingying, "You little bastard, you didn't even think of us relatives when you ate the leftovers, and you actually shared the food with outsiders."
At this moment, Ouyang Yuqing heard the second wife scolding his young wife, and he was displeased.
He, who was usually very sparing with his words, said to Su Degui, the second son of the family: "Watch your words and actions. If you keep speaking without restraint, I'll cut your tongue out."
Su Degui, the second son, was quite surprised to hear Ouyang Yuqing defend his wife.
Prince Zhan, who was usually very sparing with his words, actually scolded his relative today in order to stand up for his little princess.
Little did he know that in the past, when they caused trouble in the mansion, the Prince of Zhan always turned a blind eye and didn't care about their antics.
This is also what gave Ouyang Yuqing the confidence to act so arrogantly in the mansion.
But today, Ouyang Yuqing is different; it feels like she's started to experience the realities of life.
Is it because he has a wife now, and has come to know the joys and sorrows of love, that he has become more vibrant?
Su Degui was brought back to his senses by Ouyang Yuqing's scolding.
"Your Highness, can't you leave the leftovers for us, your relatives? We ended up in prison because of you."
You should at least take care of us.
At this moment, Shen Yingying walked beside Ouyang Yuqing and interjected.
"I asked for the food, what's it to you?"
While cursing me, she still wanted to eat the food I managed to get.
Do you even care about your face?
"You... how can you be so vulgar? Your words are utterly inappropriate. You are disgracing the Prince's family."
If the head of the household hasn't said anything, who do you think you are?
Now you know that our master has implicated you, but when you were acting like tyrants in the mansion, why didn't you think about how tolerant our master was of you?
"Hmph, what a bunch of ungrateful wretches! Just look at your true colors now that trouble has struck."
It's like we owe you something.
Please don't mention the time you saved my grandfather.
Saving one life and providing relief to support three generations of you is more than enough. Stop using this as an excuse, understand?
From now on, we will no longer be in charge of the household as princes. Please be merciful and let us go.
He can't withstand the feeding frenzy of you swarm of bloodsuckers right now.
Su Degui, unwilling to argue with Shen Yingying, turned to Ouyang Yuqing and asked, "Your Highness, what do you think?"
This marriage was bestowed upon me by the Emperor. I already have a family, and my wife will manage these domestic affairs.
"Your Highness, are you saying you're abandoning us?"
Are we just suffering for nothing by being implicated?
"Hehe, you guys were clinging to wealth and glory back then, how come you're suffering now?"
This was your own choice; no one forced you.
"Hmph, I see now, Your Highness, you've forgotten your roots now that you have a wife."
From now on, we won't be clinging to your food anymore, and you shouldn't expect anything from us in the future.
If you get into any trouble, please don't drag us down with you.
