Chuanyu refused, feeling embarrassed, "My mother won't let me eat these."
Moreover, even if she were allowed to eat, she wouldn't be tolerated eating pig's trotters in such an unseemly manner.
"You eat, watching you eat makes me feel like I've eaten too."
Chuanyu smiled again, her bright face filled with happiness and envy. Ever since she discovered that Chuanwen seemed to never be full and ate with such relish, she had enjoyed watching him eat; it made her feel especially happy.
The author, Wen Wuyan, wrote: "Am I... transmigrating into a book and doing a mukbang for the female lead? How about some donations, maybe I should send a rocket first, female lead?"
It was at this moment that Huang Qi arrived at the door. Marquis Changxing, not knowing why, had no choice but to call Chuanwen, who was gnawing on a pig's trotter.
Seeing Huang Qi's solemn expression, the Changxing Marquis's family panicked and surrounded Chuanwen tightly in a protective posture.
Chuanwen was also completely bewildered, but seeing Chuanwu, who was squeezed to the outside by Chuanyu and could not squeeze in no matter what, he was surprised that Chuanyu, the female protagonist in the novel who was described as weak and helpless and based on the image of Lin Daiyu, was so strong.
"Little sister, don't be afraid, brother will protect you!"
After Chuanwu couldn't squeeze past Chuanyu no matter what he did, he finally gave up and shouted tragically from the outside, only to be given a smack on the head by his own mother.
It was the old lady of the Marquis of Changxing who was reliable. She pulled Huang Qi aside and asked him what was going on in the palace. Although Huang Qi knew what had happened in the palace, he really didn't know why Princess Bao Hui had summoned the two of them. So he just said that it was an emergency and they could talk about it on the way.
"Can we come along?"
Chuan Rui was very worried about his daughter going to the palace, especially since it seemed like a big deal. He was also a little excited; he wanted to see what the palace was like.
"The Emperor only summoned the Marquis of Changxing and his newly recognized granddaughter."
Huang Qi pointed at Marquis Changxing and Chuanwen, his meaning quite clear.
Chuan Rui was very disappointed.
Although he was very worried about Chuanwen, he could not refuse the emperor's summons. He could only watch them leave after receiving a guarantee from the Marquis of Changxing that he would protect Chuanwen.
Chuanwen was also a little uneasy. In the book, she never went to the palace until her death. Could it be that she offended Princess Baohui and caused a butterfly effect?
After getting into the carriage amidst his random thoughts, Chuanwen realized that there was already someone sitting inside.
The woman was dressed in coarse cloth, her dry hair simply held in place with a wooden hairpin, and she was sallow and thin. When she saw Chuanwen, who was dressed elegantly, enter, she hid her calloused hands under her clothes.
After Chuanwen settled in, the carriage clattered away from the gate of the Marquis of Changxing's residence.
"My name is Chuanwen, and who are you?"
Chuanwen, who had never known the meaning of subtlety, would ask questions whenever she was curious. However, she still politely introduced herself first.
Chaoyang found it somewhat difficult to speak. What kind of well-bred young lady is like her? A well-bred young lady should be like the girl opposite her, delicate and beautiful, adorned with pearls and silks, and graceful and poised.
"I...I am Lord Zhou's wife."
Princess Chaoyang dared not reveal her identity as a county magistrate, and instead gave a vague answer.
Chuanwen's dark, moist eyes widened even further. [No, no, it couldn't be Zhou Yong's wife, the Princess of Chaoyang, that super-love-obsessed girl!!!]
Chaoyang's eardrums were assaulted by the scream, but the girl opposite him clearly didn't open her mouth.
However, the girl's eyes were clearly filled with shock; the scream just now must have come from her.
Chuanwen looked at Chaoyang in surprise, while Chaoyang looked at Chuanwen with a puzzled expression.
【Hmm? But I remember that Princess Chaoyang never returned to the capital before she died in the story. Could I be remembering wrong?】
Chuanwen mentally flipped through the plot, and as she did so, she discovered that many of the words in the plot were being broken down and reassembled.
What's going on? Has the plot changed? And why?
Chuanwen was truly puzzled; she hadn't done anything at all.
Chaoyang listened curiously to the constant voices of doubt, and looking at Chuanwen, whose mouth was not open at all, he was also very puzzled.
The two stared at each other blankly for a while, and soon arrived at the palace gate.
The two got out of the carriage and walked. Marquis Changxing also dismounted and went to his granddaughter's side, whispering to comfort her: "Wenwen, don't be afraid. Just now, Grandpa Huang Qi said that this matter has nothing to do with us. He just wanted us to come and broaden our horizons."
Actually, Huang Qi's words on the way were quite somber. Marquis Changxing had vouched for Zhou Yong's character, so calling him here must mean something bad. As for why Chuanwen was called here, he didn't know.
But after hearing Huang Qi recount the events, and learning that Princess Bao Hui had summoned them, Marquis Changxing knew that Princess Bao Hui either wanted Chuanwen to testify or wanted everyone to hear Chuanwen's true feelings.
Fearing that his naive granddaughter might be frightened, he comforted her gently.
Actually, Chuanwen isn't worried anymore. He'll deal with whatever comes his way, and at worst, he'll just finish filming sooner.
On the contrary, Chaoyang's steps grew heavier as she approached the main hall. In the past, she was always incomparably noble when entering and leaving the palace, but now she was so poor and lowly. However, her Zhou Lang was inside, and she had to rescue him.
Wow, this is the royal palace! It's beautiful!
[Black tiles and red walls, how magnificent!]
That lion is carved so meticulously, even the individual hairs are clearly defined. Ah, I'm craving braised lion's head meatballs.
The group entered the main hall amidst Chuanwen's repeated sighs of admiration.
As soon as they entered, everyone's eyes fell on the simple and timid woman, guessing that this was the granddaughter of the Marquis of Changxing who had just been recognized and who had grown up in the countryside.
"The Marquis of Changxing is too stingy. He has recognized the person but won't even give him decent clothes to wear. It's outrageous."
