Chapter 148 Losing all face



The young boy, his face cold, asked, "Grandma, are you alright?"

Liu Cuihua gave an awkward smile. Seeing that Shangguan Yichen was holding a large bowl, she guessed what was going on: "Brother Chen, where are you going? How about your auntie takes you?"

"No need!" Shangguan Yichen's lips twitched, and his eyelids twitched wildly. Was it the aroma from his own kitchen that was drawing him in?

Liu Cuihua was speechless, but she didn't take it to heart. After all, Shangguan Yichen talked to everyone like that. No, he seemed to be a little more polite when talking to Lady Mo...

Hey, what are you thinking about? Liu Cuihua shook her head, quickened her pace, and pondered how to get something to eat. Otherwise, if her mother-in-law didn't protect her, her husband might beat her up.

"Lady Mo, what delicious food have you made? It smells so good! It's making me so hungry!" Liu Cuihua didn't stand on ceremony and went straight to the stone table in the courtyard. When she saw what was on the table, her eyes widened instantly.

"Sister-in-law, you've come at just the right time. Please sit down and have a taste..." Mo Qingcheng touched her nose. Sister-in-law Cuihua has a really good memory.

It turned out that the pork offal in the pot was cooked. Mo Qingcheng cut a large plate of it, added some chopped wild scallions and some bay leaves from the oil used to fry the fish. The children ate it so much that they didn't even want to eat rice anymore.

Bai Yueniang, feeling sorry for the little ones, threatened them that if they didn't eat rice, they wouldn't get any sausage either. Mo Qingcheng poured soup into everyone's bowls, making them smell delicious from afar.

Liu Cuihua didn't stand on ceremony, so Bai Yueniang had no choice but to serve her half a bowl of rice, half a spoonful of soup, and a pair of chopsticks.

It smells so good!

Liu Cuihua sniffed hard and began to eat heartily, not even having time to speak, leaving the children dumbfounded.

Aunt Liu... she can eat so much!

A bad feeling rose in Bai Ziming's heart. He stared intently at Liu Cuihua's hands and mouth. She couldn't eat anymore, or Momo and her older brother and sister would go hungry.

Shangguan Yunxi remained silent, her gaze slightly unfocused. Heavens have mercy, her elder brother still hasn't returned…

When Shangguan Yichen returned from delivering the things to Third Grandmother's house, he saw a familiar figure at the dining table. He frowned slightly. Was Aunt Li here to freeload?

"Oh dear, Mother, why aren't you home yet?" Li Yuanlin asked without any politeness, squeezing his way in.

Mo Qingcheng's eyelids twitched wildly, while Liu Cuihua looked embarrassed: "Lin-ge'er, what are you doing here? Hurry back and take care of your two nephews. Why are you becoming more and more irresponsible as you get older?"

Li Yuanlin pursed his lips and vigorously washed his nose: "No, Mom, Grandma is waiting for you to finish cooking at home... How can you be so shameless as to eat and drink like this?"

"Cough cough..." Liu Cuihua choked on her breath, almost choking to death. She glared at her son and said, "Don't let your mother beat you up!"

Shangguan Yichen washed his hands expressionlessly, sat down at the table, and then his eyes swept across the room before he froze.

Shangguan Yunxi thoughtfully brought over a small bowl of hidden braised pork intestines, smiling as she said, "Big brother, isn't your little sister the best to you?"

The little boy paused with his chopsticks, took a bite, and looked on with obvious enjoyment. A fragrant aroma wafted into Li Yuanlin's nose, making him almost drool.

"Aunt Mo..."

"Sister Yue..." Mo Qingcheng took a deep breath and gestured to Bai Yueniang to quickly serve the rice. This brat is staying here and won't leave. Is it too late to kick him away?

Li Yuanlin was extremely grateful. Ignoring his mother's clutches that were twisting his ears, he swallowed the food in a few bites, waved his hand, and disappeared in a flash.

"Mom, I'm going back to check on Grandma. It's dark and the roads are slippery..."

"You little brat, you just wait!" Liu Cuihua wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground. "Um, Miss Mo, can I buy some to take home?"
