"The last dish is here."
Dinner has begun.
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Jia Dongsheng specially prepared a large table of dishes.
One fish, three ways to cook it: chopped pepper fish head, braised fish body, steamed fish tail, then smoked pork ribs, garlic ribs, pork head, and finally salted duck and egg yolk baked pumpkin.
This is the dish that Jia Dongsheng made specially for the Mid-Autumn Festival. In addition, there are two refreshing dishes to go with wine.
A total of ten dishes were prepared, which symbolize perfection, and each one is delicious in color, aroma and taste.
The kind that makes people drool.
But, when some people drool, others look unhappy.
The reason why it looked ugly was not because she was afraid of wasting too much food, but because she really couldn't finish it.
I clearly want to eat, but my stomach is already full. Even though there are delicious foods in front of me, I have no appetite at all.
This person is Jia Zhang.
She was seen sitting between Chen Xueru and Xu Huizhen. She used to be very happy every time she saw her two beautiful goddaughters, but now she had a sour look on her face.
Especially every time Jia Dongsheng prepared a dish and brought it to the table, her face became uglier.
By the time all ten dishes were served, his face had turned a little darker.
There's no way. The aroma of the food is in my nose, my mouth is constantly watering, and my throat is constantly swallowing. No matter how you look at it, it looks like I really want to eat it.
But, his face was sour because his stomach was full of osmanthus cake, a whole plate, which He Daqing brought for the Jia family to eat.
But in the end, it all went into Jia Zhang's stomach. It would be strange if she could eat anything else.
If today is not Mid-Autumn Festival, the whole family needs to be reunited.
If it weren't for Xu Huizhen and Chen Xueru, whom she invited, it would be difficult for her to leave.
Jia Zhang had gone into the house long ago. Out of sight, out of mind. Not seeing so many delicious dishes made her feel less uncomfortable.
But now she couldn't eat, and she had to sit here and watch others eat. It would be strange if she was in a good mood.
This also made Jia Zhangshi feel more resentful towards He Daqing.
Is this person here just to piss her off?
Why does it always make her so angry?
A glint of determination flashed in Jia Zhang's eyes: "If I get a chance, I will block your door and give you a good scolding."
That’s right, Jia Zhang had secretly vowed in her heart that she must make an end to everything with He Daqing.
Chen Xueru and Xu Huizhen also noticed that the atmosphere was a little strange, especially Jia Zhang's expression, which was very ugly. This made the two people who didn't know the specific situation a little uneasy.
"Could it be that godmother discovered that she was pregnant?"
Chen Xueru thought secretly in her heart, and at the same time, looked at Xu Huizhen, wanting to see if she could get an answer that would reassure her.
But Xu Huizhen gave her a helpless look, indicating that she didn't know either.
As for Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru, they kept greeting each other with bright smiles. They both already knew why Jia Zhang was so depressed.
The two of them had just gone out for a walk, and when they came back, Jia Dongsheng told them what had happened, and they both laughed heartily.
There is no way around it. Jia Zhang's behavior of wanting to harm others but ending up harming herself is really hilarious.
However, they did not dare to be presumptuous in front of Jia Zhang, and they did not even dare to mention this matter. They could only chat with Chen Xueru and Xu Huizhen with a smile.
And watching them there feeling guilty, I was secretly laughing in my heart.
You let these two vixens seduce Dongsheng, so you must be feeling guilty now, right?
In fact, the four women each had their own thoughts and ulterior motives, but they were not thinking about the same thing at all.
"Why aren't you moving your chopsticks yet? Wait for me?"
Jia Dongsheng came out of the kitchen with a bowl of soup, put it on the table, and asked with a smile.
"That's right, you are the head of the family. How can we have the nerve to pick up our chopsticks if you don't?"
These words were said in a very sarcastic tone, and the only person who could talk to Jia Dongsheng like this was Jia Zhang.
When she said the head of the family, she was gritting her teeth. She was quite dissatisfied with Jia Dongsheng today.
"Haha, Mom, you are the head of the family, who am I?"
Jia Dongsheng smiled and picked up a large bone for Jia Zhangshi and put it in her bowl: "Mom, come and try the smoked and sauced large bone I made. The meat is so delicious."
Yes, it was very fragrant, and the aroma went straight into my nose, but I couldn’t eat it at all. The way Jia Zhang looked at Jia Dongsheng, she looked like she wanted to eat him.
It’s all this brat’s fault. He knew I couldn’t finish it, but he still gave me some food. He really wants to piss me off to death by not supporting me in my old age!
What a sinister intention.
Jia Zhang has now become a little obsessed with the idea of retirement. Whatever she thinks about, she thinks about retirement.
"Dongsheng, since we're all gathered here today, why don't we have a drink first?"
Seeing that Jia Zhang's face looked increasingly bad, Xu Huizhen stepped forward to smooth things over. Although she didn't know why Jia Zhang was in such a bad mood today, she knew that her godmother had absolutely no appetite or mood to eat.
So, she suggested drinking.
As long as you drink, the weird atmosphere will gradually dissipate.
This is the experience she gained from being a tavern owner for so many years.
"Godmother, this is the sweet-scented osmanthus wine I've stored for many years. I brought it here today because I wanted to have a drink with you."
Xu Huizhen picked up a small wine jar, stood up and said, "Let me pour you some wine first."
"Hey, thank you, Huizhen."
Although she was not satisfied with her biological son, she still liked her two goddaughters very much and gave them face, showing a forced smile.
