"Duan Tingxuan, do you still have any shame?"
Su Nuannuan saw the bean paste crumbs on the corner of the scumbag's mouth, and she was so angry that she rushed into the house and scolded him: "Taking something without asking is considered stealing. You are a young marquis after all, and you actually stole from an abandoned woman like me. Do you have any shame?"
Su Nuannuan was so angry that she even cursed. This was a level of ferocity that even the previous Su Mengnuan had never experienced before. Siping and Honglian Xiangyun were immediately frightened to the point that their paws were numb. Siping hid aside, trembling, and muttered to himself, "I've already said that grandma is not a yaksha. She is a rakshasa."
Compared to Siping, who was not up to the task, Duan Tingxuan really had the demeanor of a general who had seen the vicissitudes of life. He knew the truth of "a shameless man is invincible". Facing Su Nuannuan's accusation, the young marquis folded his elbows to his chest and smiled evilly, "Who said I stole it? This is the Marquis' Mansion, and Meiyue Tower is my Meiyue Tower. Is it considered stealing if I come to my house to eat something? Su Mengnuan, have you forgotten? I haven't written the divorce letter yet. You are still my nominal wife. How can you pretend to be an abandoned woman?"
This time the scumbag came prepared.
Su Nuannuan quickly calmed down and realized that she would not get any benefit from confronting this shameless scum head-on. There was no other way. The evil feudal society never supported women. She couldn't even get divorced, let alone divorce.
Thinking of this key point, Su Nuannuan immediately gave up those meaningless verbal disputes. She expressed her fearlessness and contempt for Duan Tingxuan with her actions. Her action was - she spit in the plates and bowls placed on the stove by Duan Tingxuan at lightning speed, leaving none unseen.
"Su Mengnuan, you are so bold." Duan Tingxuan roared, and the roar even had a kind of earth-shattering momentum, but the next moment, his words made this momentum disappear.
"Isn't it just that I want to eat a few dishes of yours? Is it necessary to be so vicious? After all, you are still receiving the monthly salary from me, and these things are made with ingredients from my kitchen. You...are you so stingy and mean? Do you have any shame?"
The trembling Siping and Honglian Xiangyun stood still at once. The three of them looked at each other silently, and very wisely left the kitchen, leaving the battlefield to the hero and heroine. There was no other way, the battlefield was too small, and if they didn't protect themselves, they would easily become cannon fodder.
"As long as I can keep my food, what do I need my face for? Can I eat it?"
Su Nuannuan had a blank expression on her face, and she sneered in her heart: What do you think? Scumbag, are you stupid? You didn't expect that there are women in the world who are as shameless as you? You think you are the only one who understands the truth that shameless people are invincible? Bah! Today I will let you know that there are always people who are better than you.
"Okay, you're so cruel." Duan Tingxuan really didn't expect Su Nuannuan to be so difficult to deal with. Although he had experienced the other party's lion roar once before, he always thought that it was an outburst of an abandoned woman after many days of grievance and resentment. As long as that momentum burst out, the strength would be released. If he came again today, even if the other party did not welcome him with open arms, she would certainly not dare to be arrogant and domineering, thus cutting off the possibility of reconciliation with him.
At this moment, he completely forgot his speculation about "resurrection from the dead". He was just angry, angry that this damn woman dared to ignore the dignity of her husband. Was she rebelling?
But even though he was so angry, Young Marquis Duan's eyes still kept roaming back and forth over the bunch of green plants in Su Nuannuan's hands. His anger gradually faded from his mind, and was replaced by: Where have I seen this before? Is this a tree seedling? Can it be eaten? Is this woman really starving and eating tree bark and grass? Oh no, there are so many good things in the kitchen...
Thinking of the good things in the kitchen, anger rose again in his chest. Duan Tingxuan looked at Su Nuannuan grimly, and nodded after a long while. He said softly, "Very good." After that, he walked out.
Siping and Honglian Xiangyun had not expected that the always arrogant young marquis would be defeated so easily, and they all couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. However, only Su Nuannuan saw a hint of dangerous determination in the man's eyes, so her mood became even heavier.
"Grandma, what a waste of food!"
Until Duan Tingxuan disappeared, Honglian and Xiangyun looked at the dishes on the stove, feeling sad and regretful. This was their lunch today. In fact, the master and servants were very frugal. They couldn't go to the kitchen to rob every now and then, right? As a result, the whole meal was ruined, especially the pork sauce. Grandma was so cruel that she even opened the bottle cap and spit. That was their breakfast pickles for a month.
"It's better to suffer a short pain than a long one." Su Nuannuan looked at the food with a heartache, gritting her teeth. "If I don't do this today, that scumbag will get addicted and come to my house every day, just like a fly. Can you drive him away? Only with such a decisive attitude can he understand that there is no tomorrow in fighting with me, and then he will give up and return to the days of ignoring me as before."
Honglian and Xiangyun could never understand why grandma hated her husband so much and would never have anything to do with him again, but they also knew they couldn't change her mind, so they could only quietly carry the food to feed the chickens, thinking at the same time that grandpa is not the kind of person who would back down when faced with difficulties. Grandma, aren't you naive to expect to drive me away with such a resolute attitude?
Su Nuannuan also knew that Duan Tingxuan would not retreat so easily, so she immediately started thinking actively. However, after having lunch and dinner, she still could not think of a solution. She could only regard today's incident as Honglian's bad luck. After educating him on "speaking more auspiciously in the future", she put the matter behind her and prepared to implement the passive waiting method of "if the enemy comes, we will stop him with our soldiers and if the water comes, we will block it with earth".
"Master, this grandma is getting more and more outrageous. This... I really don't know what she is thinking."
Walking on the path in the garden, Siping stole a glance at his master's expression, and carefully started the conversation with "condemning the grandmother", hoping that this attitude of sharing a common hatred of the enemy would make the master forget the shameful experience of his betrayal just now.
Duan Tingxuan didn't say anything, but lowered his head slightly, looking like a defeated rooster: Shame, so shameful. That woman's attitude was nothing. The most important thing was that he went there and not only didn't find any leek dumplings, he didn't even get any pork sauce back. The young marquis felt that he had suffered the worst blow since he was born.
"Master, actually... you didn't return empty-handed." Siping swallowed his saliva: "Well, didn't you eat some snacks after all? You... there's still bean paste on your lips."
Before he finished speaking, Duan Tingxuan quickly raised his head and clapped his hands, saying, "You're right. I didn't end up losing more than I gained. After all, I stole several snacks, and I didn't take any rice..."
At this point, he suddenly came to his senses, turned around and glared at Siping, saying angrily: "Damn you, you bastard, how dare you bring this up? Look at how useless you were just now. This is just in Meiyue Tower. If we were really on the battlefield, I would still expect you to be loyal to your master. If you don't turn around and sell me out, I'd be very lucky, right?"
Siping quickly apologized with a smile: "Master, you know me best. It was in Meiyue Tower that I...wasn't I hoping to make Grandma laugh? I thought that if Grandma laughed, it would distract her attention, and then I might be able to get something. Who knew that Grandma would be so angry, and I, who was so good at singing and reciting, failed. If we go to the battlefield, I will stand in front of you and die for you..."
"Get out of here, do you think I will still believe you?" Duan Tingxuan pretended to kick him, but Siping dodged by jumping away. He still had a smile on his face, but he felt relieved in his heart, knowing that he had escaped this disaster.
Seeing the master standing at the garden gate hesitantly, the servant came closer and whispered, "Where are you going, Master? Back to the study or to Madam Yun's? Otherwise, you won't be able to visit Madam Lan for long. Madam Lan doesn't say anything, but every time she sees you, she asks about your situation..."
"Come on, how much reward did you take from them?" Duan Tingxuan rolled his eyes and said, "I'm not going anywhere, let's go back to the study."
"Master, you haven't even had your meal yet, and you've only had a few snacks. How can that be enough? Otherwise, go to Grandma Yun's place to drink some duck soup..." Siping urged. The reward money was not collected in vain, and he could speak for anyone, the key was that he had to say it.
"Ask the kitchen to send some food over." Duan Tingxuan's mood still looked bad. Without giving Siping another chance to lobby, he walked onto the path leading to the study outside the second gate.
Siping had no choice but to go to the kitchen to report. Duan Tingxuan went to the study and sat in a chair, sulking for a while, then getting angry for a while, and finally realized that there was something wrong with his emotions. He didn't want to admit that Su Nuannuan had such a big influence on him now, so he simply took out a book and slowly read it to calm down.
Shuangxi was serving outside the study room. When he heard the noise inside, he dared not even breathe. Siping came over in a moment, and he pulled him over, whispered about Duan Tingxuan's situation, and asked the reason.
Siping waved his hands and whispered, "Listen to me, don't go in and get into trouble. I've been wronged by my great-grandmother again today. Whoever goes in now will get kicked. I'll hide here with you for a while."
Shuangxi's eyes almost popped out of his head, and he said stupidly, "You...what did you say? Grandma...she...she was banished to Meiyue Tower by me, and she can...can still let me suffer? You...are you having a fever?"
Awoo! Let's use clicks to recommend and collect to celebrate the fact that the young marquis got humiliated once and that Nuan Nuan successfully defended the interests of the foodie. Let's throw flowers and applaud...
