Chapter 55 The wife wants to control him?
Chuntao was not idle either. She brought out the prepared side dishes and sauces one by one and placed them on the table.
Nan Mianmian, who was ignored, stood there awkwardly. She looked at the roasted rabbit, licked her lips, and felt it was delicious.
Of course, she would not admit it.
"Where did Madam get the rabbit?"
Chuntao said proudly, "Madam, the general had someone catch this rabbit."
When Nan Mianmian heard that it was caught by the general, she figured out that Jiang Youning was showing off.
Jiang Youning couldn't wait to pick up the knife beside her and cut a rabbit leg. She put it in her mouth and took a bite. It was a little hot, so she blew it and continued to eat.
"It smells so good."
Chuntao picked up the prop ginger rabbit meat and cut it off to make it easier for the girl to eat.
"Chun Tao, give me a rabbit leg."
"I got it." Chun Tao cut a rabbit leg and put it in a dry lotus leaf to keep it warm before sending it to the old lady.
She ignored Nan Mian Mian and stood aside, feeling awkward and angry.
"It's just a roasted rabbit, not a fresh food. I don't know how many of them I've eaten."
"Of course." Jiang Youning took a bite of the hot rabbit meat and ate it with relish.
Nan Mian Mian watched Jiang Youning finish the rabbit with disdainful eyes, and didn't even invite her to taste it together. She didn't know how to entertain guests at all.
"You can tell at a glance that this rabbit is not as delicious as the one made by Chef Yu in the palace."
She tried to attract Jiang Youning's attention.
Jiang Youning nodded in agreement, "Of course."
Nan Mianmian: "..."
Jiang Youning picked up the chopsticks and picked up the piece of good rabbit meat and put it into her mouth, not forgetting to remind: "Yuanbao, you should eat quickly too."
"I know, Miss." Yuanbao also sat down after finishing his work. He didn't eat lunch and was already hungry. He picked up the chopsticks and picked up the rabbit meat and put it into his mouth to eat.
Nan Mianmian waited for a while, and saw that Jiang Youning asked the servant to eat rabbit meat but not her, which clearly showed that he didn't take her seriously.
Best left with a puffy handkerchief.
After leaving Lingxi Courtyard, the four beauties were still guarding the door and had not left.
Seeing Nan Mianmian come out, they surrounded her one by one, with curiosity on their pretty faces.
Mo Xueluo asked, "Madam, what are you eating in there that smells so good?"
Meng Xiyao followed up by asking, "What are you doing in there?"
Nan Mianmian said arrogantly, "It's just a roasted rabbit. I thought it was some new thing."
"No wonder it smells so good. It's a roasted rabbit." Xiao Linglong glanced inside and wanted to taste the roasted rabbit.
"I haven't eaten roasted rabbit yet, but I know it's delicious just by the smell." Ji Lanyu licked her lips greedily.
"Did Madam eat it? Is it delicious?" Meng Xiyao asked.
Nan Mianmian raised her chin with a look of disdain, "I don't know how much roasted rabbit I've eaten, I'm tired of it."
Meng Xiyao smiled and said, "Yes, the Third Madam is from a famous family, so she has eaten it before, unlike us who haven't eaten it before."
Chuntao came to Jingyouyuan with a hot rabbit leg. Seeing Rong Ma, she smiled and stepped forward, "Rong Ma, this is the rabbit roasted by Madam, I want to give it to the old lady to try."
When Rong Ma heard about rabbit meat, her brows wrinkled, "The old lady is fasting and chanting Buddha, she can't eat meat, take it back."
Chuntao was stunned and didn't react for a while.
It wasn't until Rong Ma turned around and left that Chuntao reacted, looked down at the rabbit leg in her hand, and left with disappointment.
Back to Lingxiyuan, Chuntao put the rabbit leg on the table.
Jiang Youning saw the rabbit on the table retreat, and asked Chuntao in confusion, "Why did you bring it back? Doesn't mother like to eat it?"
Chuntao shook her head, "No, the old lady observes fasting and chanting Buddha, and doesn't eat meat."
Jiang Youning suddenly realized, and felt that she was not a qualified daughter-in-law, although it was fake.
"I have been married for a while, but I didn't know that mother observes fasting and chanting Buddha. Remember it next time and don't send meat."
Chuntao saw that the girl was not sad, so she nodded, "I'll remember it."
Xie Jing heard what Jiang Youning said as soon as he walked in. Mother has been observing fasting and chanting Buddha for a few years, and he didn't tell Jiang Youning, so it's normal that he didn't know.
He walked in and smelled the aroma of roasted rabbit.
In fact, he smelled the fragrance before he came in, and the fragrance was stronger when he got closer.
Jiang Youning was eating roasted rabbit. When she saw Xie Jing coming back, her almond eyes curved into crescents.
Her husband was very considerate.
"General, you're back at the right time. Let's eat roasted rabbit together."
"Yes." Xie Jing was not polite and sat down next to Jiang Youning. He saw the rabbit legs wrapped in lotus leaves on the plate. He took it and opened it. The rabbit was roasted golden on both sides and the aroma was fragrant.
Xie Jing had eaten a lot of roasted rabbits when he was fighting on the battlefield, but the aroma was not as good as this one.
He picked up the rabbit and put it into his mouth and took a bite. He found that it tasted better than before.
He praised generously, "It tastes good."
Jiang Youning curled her eyebrows, "General, you can eat more if you like it."
But she chuckled in her heart, [Xie Jing likes to eat, so we won't have to worry about not having rabbits to eat in the future. ]
Xie Jing listened to her inner thoughts for a long time, but did not comment.
Jiang Youning was eating rabbit meat, and thinking that Xie Jing was going out tomorrow, she also wanted to go with him.
"General, take me with you when you go out tomorrow, okay?"
Xie Jing glanced at Jiang Youning, "What are you going to do?"
Jiang Youning chuckled, "We are husband and wife, how can we be separated?"
[If I follow Xie Jing, I can take care of him, maybe it will be useful. ]
Xie Jing: "..." Take care of him?
"No."
Jiang Youning said coquettishly, "General, if you leave me alone in the general's mansion, I will be scared."
Xie Jing: "..."
Yuan Bao: "..."
Chun Tao: "..."
Jiang Youning repeated seriously: "Really, I didn't lie to the general."
[General, are you really willing to leave me alone in such a big general's mansion? ]
Xie Jing: "..."
After Xie Jing finished eating the roasted rabbit, he stood up and walked away.
Jiang Youning followed him.
[I seriously suspect that Xie Jing's serious illness this time must have been caused by the hard work. ]
Xie Jing paused and looked back at Jiang Youning. How could he be seriously ill?
There was nothing wrong with his body, how could he be seriously ill?
Jiang Youning saw Xie Jing stop, she walked over happily, "General, have you changed your mind?"
Xie Jing's dark eyes stared at her closely, "Why are you following me?"
Jiang Youning said seriously, "My husband travels thousands of miles, I will be very worried."
[The original words are "A son travels thousands of miles, and his mother is worried", the meaning is almost the same, hehe! ]
Xie Jing: "..." Comparing him to a son? You can really think.
Jiang Youning was really worried, [If Xie Jing does this, what if he dies young? I will be a widow, and I will lose my money and house. ]
Xie Jing really wanted to tell her, who is the one who did it?
Knowing that they are a fake couple, she still calls him husband all the time, saying that she can't bear to be separated from him, and she is not ashamed.
