Chapter 95: I didn't keep an eye on the little bastard
The corners of Xu Lian'er's mouth twitched. She felt that her sister was particularly abnormal today, but she could not care less. If Xu Wan, this vixen, stayed here any longer, she would go crazy.
So she stood up and hurried to find Minister Xu, but just as she was about to leave, she saw Chen Yunyu looking at her.
The two sisters were shocked.
Xu Lian'er quickly pulled Xu Wan up and said, "Sister, you should come with me."
Otherwise, leaving her here alone would give them another opportunity to be alone.
Xu Wan nodded repeatedly as if she had found a savior: "Good idea, my dear sister!"
Xu Lianer: “…”
Did that rebellious son make her lose her mind in the Marquis' Mansion?
Otherwise, why would he suddenly become so affectionate with me?
"Hurry up, sister. I'm in a hurry." Xu Wan urged, pulling and dragging Xu Lian'er out.
Xu Lianer: “???”
Who should be anxious?
However, it was a rare opportunity for these half-sisters to present a united front, so they went to see Minister Xu to ask for Xu Wan's resignation.
If it weren't for the sake of face, Minister Xu would not have wanted to continue seeing Xu Wan's rebellious and unfilial face, but since Xu Lian'er herself had found a reason for her, he quickly waved his hand and let Xu Wan go.
In the main hall, the food was served.
The little devil was told to go home before he even picked up his chopsticks. He stood up with a bang and said to Chen Yunyu in a ridiculous tone, "You don't even care about the meal? You're really too irritable."
Chen Yunyu: “???”
Who doesn't care about your meal?
What does it have to do with me? ?
However, he didn't have time to argue with Zong Jincheng at the moment, and hurried out to ask what happened. He only heard that Xu Wan was not feeling well, and immediately asked nervously: "Why is she not feeling well? Wasn't my aunt fine just now?"
Xu Lian'er's face darkened when she heard this. She felt that her newlywed husband cared too much about Xu Wan.
But she still suppressed her jealousy and explained softly, "Sister caught a cold yesterday, and she came here today to save our face. She is feeling a little uncomfortable right now, so I told father and invited sister to come to the mansion to enjoy the fun another day."
Chen Yunyu pondered and said, "Auntie has worked hard, but that's all. We can invite her to the Duke of Jin's mansion another day to make up for the unfinished hospitality today."
The more Xu Lian'er listened, the angrier she became. She wished she would never let Chen Yunyu and Xu Wan meet again, but her husband still wanted to invite Xu Wan to the Duke of Jin's Mansion. Why? That was her home, and she didn't want Xu Wan to come!
Xu Lian'er responded respectfully on the surface, but in her heart she was thinking about getting the reins of the Duke of Jin's Mansion as soon as possible, and she was determined not to let Xu Wan enter her house in the future!
The little devil wanted to make more trouble but was dragged out by Zong Wenxiu, who covered his mouth with his own. He was mumbling and unable to utter a word, with only his two arms dangling in the air.
After being stuffed into the carriage, the little devil finally gained his freedom. He howled, "This is outrageous! The food is already on the table but you don't let me eat it. This is so rude!"
He finally managed to piss off that pretentious Chen Yunyu, but before he could even see him leave without eating, it wasn't satisfying at all!
Zong Wenxiu quickly explained to him, "These people are very strange. It's better not to eat with them. Our Houfu cooks better."
Zong Jincheng then responded, "That's right. The cooking skills of our Marquis' Mansion are the best in the capital. I've eaten the Xu family's meals before, and that's it."
Xu Wan sat in the carriage for a while before she regained her sense of security. Then she realized that she was running for her life. When she turned around, she heard the little devil's words and responded subconsciously, "It's really like that. It doesn't taste good."
Zong Jincheng was a little surprised that this woman would agree with him.
What a surprise.
Did the sun rise from the west today?
He opened the car curtain and looked out...
Oh, I overthought it.
"Gurgle..." Someone's stomach suddenly growled.
The carriage suddenly became quiet, and the three of them laughed out loud in unison.
Xu Wan teased, "It looks like we won't be able to make it back to the Marquis' Mansion for lunch today."
Zong Wenxiu scratched his head a little embarrassedly. He seemed to hear his brother's stomach growling. No wonder his brother was so upset just now.
Xu Wan said to the outside, "Cuizhi, find a restaurant nearby so we can have dinner there."
"Yes, ma'am."
Zui Xiang Lou.
As the three of them walked in, the little devil was still mumbling: "I have to remind you, a meal here will cost at least several dozen taels, it's very expensive."
He hadn't been to such a place for several months since Xu Wan cut off all his money.
Moreover, he was very sensitive about silver now, and the thought of the amount of copper plates he would have to exchange for it made him feel that it would be a huge expense.
Xu Wan smiled and said, "It's expensive, I'll treat you. Otherwise, if you hold on for a little longer, you two delicate little kids will starve to death."
"Haha..." Zong Wenxiu laughed out loud.
Zong Jincheng glanced at her briefly and walked inside in a skipping manner.
"Hey, Master Zong is here, come in quickly!"
Zong Jincheng was a well-known sucker in Beijing. All the owners of the expensive restaurants knew him. He was recognized as soon as he entered the restaurant and immediately asked the waiter to treat him well.
Xu Wan secretly clicked her tongue, this brat really could get away with anything. Fortunately, Butler Liu had told these shops earlier that he would not repay the favors, otherwise they would not be able to defend themselves against that brat.
"Master Zong, Madam Zong, I will take you to book the best private room."
Xu Wan waved her hand and said, "No need, just find a seat by the window."
"Okay."
The three of them followed him up to the second floor. From the window, they could see the street view below. The weather in May was already a little hot, and the breeze was comfortable and cool.
"Baked carp noodles, roasted lamb, goose with five-flavor apricot cheese, sea bass sashimi, pickled winter melon..."
The little devil didn't even need to look at the menu when ordering. He just read out the names of the dishes in a click. The waiter's eyes became smaller and smaller as he smiled, until they were almost invisible in the end.
Zong Wenxiu was amazed watching from the side, while Xu Wan was bored watching the performance of the young master.
Speaking of food, there is probably no child who doesn't like it. Although the chef in the Marquis' Mansion is also very good, the little devil is obviously very happy when he comes out to eat. His little round face smiles brightly and healingly, which makes people's hearts soften like a pool of spring water, and they can't help but give him the best things in the world.
Xu Wan had never been a mother, and this was the first time she felt this way. She sighed silently in her heart. It is said that loving mothers often spoil their children, but which mother doesn't want to love her children with love?
However, before the loving mother could finish her words for a few seconds, Xu Wan couldn't help but interrupt and said, "Okay, we can't finish all the food you ordered."
While I was stunned, the little bastard had already ordered ten dishes.
Xu Wan watched the waiter running away happily, the corners of her mouth twitched. This little devil was really good at deceiving people, and she failed to keep an eye on him in such a short time.
Xu Wan tried to save the situation: "Ten dishes, eat them all in a while. If you can't finish them, take them back to the mansion and continue eating them in the evening."
Zong Jincheng: “!!!”
I can't understand it at all!
The little devil stood up from the table and protested at the top of his voice: "Who eats out and brings leftovers home?"
