Chapter 239 My Grandson is the Top Scholar (19)



Who would have thought that such ugly-looking crayfish could be made into something so delicious? And that eel was so fishy...

Everyone was eagerly waiting, wondering when dinner would be served.

Mo Yan simply gave each of them a pot, saying there would be enough for everyone.

"Watch me eat."

Mo Yan grabbed the head and ate the yellow shell in one go, not giving up the meat inside the claw and even dipping it in the crayfish soup.

Eating crayfish should be done with a sense of ritual; you have to peel and eat it at the same time to truly appreciate its flavor.

They watched Mo Yan's movements and started eating as well.

When it comes to crayfish, there's only the difference between eating one bite and eating countless bites.

Some people haven't tried it before and can't appreciate its deliciousness, but once they take a bite, they can't stop. Bi Ziyu and his friends are like that; the group of young men finished the whole thing.

Mo Yan stopped eating when she had almost finished, and Bai Yuansi did the same.

Bai Yuansi never expected that crayfish and eels would taste so good.

"Master, I think we can open a crayfish restaurant. Tell me how to do it and I'll give you a share of the profits, okay?"

Bi Ziyu immediately saw the business opportunities in recent years. He was not short of money, but he lacked the ability to prove himself.

"Okay, but with your inconsistent work ethic, how can your business possibly thrive? You can shut down your gambling den and restaurant at will!"

Bi Ziyu's ability to see business opportunities shows he has some cleverness, but it's useless if he only works sporadically.

"No, Master, I just want to learn martial arts. I will arrange for someone to do it properly."

Bi Ziyu was a little embarrassed; he just wanted to learn martial arts.

"This recipe isn't perfect. I need to find some more seasonings in a few days. You guys should head back now."

Okay.

That evening, Mo Yan returned to her room and began drawing mahjong and playing card designs with a brush.

The housekeeper and his wife also ate with them today.

Mo Yan said there was no need to be so formal in the future. The fact that the couple had stayed with her and Bai Yuansi all this time showed that they were loyal and affectionate.

"Madam, the young master is still studying and hasn't rested yet."

At midnight, the butler came over and told Mo Yan the news.

"I understand. You all go and rest. I'm going to see him."

Having not been active for a long time, Mo Yan felt incredibly sore after exercising all day today, as if her body had been disassembled. Needless to say, little Bai Yuansi must feel the same way.

When she got to his window, she found the light was still on, so Mo Yan went over and knocked on the window.

Bai Yuansi quickly blew out the lamp.

"I know you're not asleep, open the door quickly."

Mo Yan didn't forget to bring some melon seeds with her; the clan chief had given them to her, saying they roasted them themselves.

Bai Yuansi then came out. "Grandmother, I've been resting."

Mo Yan looked at him with a half-smile, as if to say, "You're pretending, and I'm watching you pretend."

"Okay, I didn't sleep. I was just thinking that after I finished talking, I had to study hard and pass the imperial examination to become a scholar as soon as possible..."

Without hesitation, Mo Yan reached out and tapped him on the head.

"How old are you? Why are you thinking about these things?"

"I want them to know that even without them, I will still be my grandmother's support in the future, and I will be outstanding and make my grandmother proud."

He made those who once looked down on him regret it.

"You are my pride now,"

Mo Yan gently rubbed his little head. "Besides, Grandma wants you to be healthy and happy. Learning isn't about stuffing everything into your head by rote memorization. Aren't you tired of that at your age?"

As for the people you mentioned…
