Chapter 339, Saving Food
Everyone got a small piece of cake and they finished it in no time. In the whole pavilion, only Daohua still had a big piece in her hand.
Zhou Jingwan and Yan Wenkai both had regretful expressions on their faces.
They wanted to eat but there was nothing to eat. Daohua didn't like it, but she took the biggest piece.
At this time, a servant came over and said that dinner was ready.
"Let's go, let's eat."
Xiao Yeyang said to everyone, and just as he finished speaking, he saw Daohua stand up and immediately said, "You haven't finished eating your cake yet, you can't leave. Defu, you stay here and watch her. When she finishes eating, you can let her go."
Daohua's eyes widened immediately: "Xiao Yeyang, don't go too far!"
Xiao Yeyang smiled faintly and gave her a provocative look as if to say 'I am just like this, what can you do to me': "What are you all still doing here? Let's go." After saying that, he was the first to walk out of the pavilion.
As soon as he left, Dong Yuanxuan and others had to follow him.
As for the girls, they all looked at Jiang Wanying.
Jiang Wanying had now come back to her senses from Xiao Yeyang's rude attitude towards her. She put away the grievance and shame in her heart, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and looked at Daohua with an embarrassed look.
"Miss Yan, I'm so sorry. Brother Yang is just like that. He always stays away from foods he doesn't like. It's not that he doesn't like them, but he's just not familiar with them."
She noticed that Brother Yang didn't eat a single bite of the cake.
To be honest, she doesn't like eating food brought by outsiders.
Daohua looked at Jiang Wanying speechlessly.
Could this person be any more hypocritical?
She felt so tired for her. Couldn't she just directly tell Xiao Yeyang that he didn't like the cake she made? Instead of wasting time and talking about a bunch of irrelevant things, wasn't she wasting her breath?
"Miss Jiang, it's okay. It doesn't matter if Xiao Yeyang doesn't like it. I'm also very happy to see everyone like it."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wanying was stunned. Daohua's reaction was somewhat beyond her expectations.
"Miss Yan, I hope you don't take it to heart. As for Brother Yang punishing you with cake, I also think he went too far. A girl like us doesn't have such a big belly. He's clearly teasing me. Don't worry, I will plead for you."
Jiang Wanying was still talking, but Dong Yuanyao couldn't stand it anymore. She walked over, patted Daohua on the shoulder, and then took Su Shiyu and Zhou Jingwan away.
Seeing this, Jiang Wanying was stunned for a moment, then frowned.
This Dong Yuanyao has embarrassed her several times.
Daohua smiled, gave Dong Yuanyao a thumbs up in her heart, and then looked at Jiang Wanying with a smile: "Miss Jiang, go eat quickly, don't worry about me." Then she gritted her teeth and said, "I will slowly savor this cake here."
After saying that, he lowered his head and started eating the cake bite by bite.
Seeing her like this, Jiang Wanying frowned and motioned for the other girls to leave first. When most of them had left, she said, "Miss Yan, I think you should be more careful about your words and actions."
Daohua's face showed impatience. Is this guy going to stop? He looked at her with a fake smile: "Miss Jiang, what you said is really strange. Tell me, what should I pay attention to in my words and actions?"
Jiang Wanying: "Brother Yang is of noble status. You shouldn't call him by his first name."
Daohua quickly interrupted, "If not Xiao Yeyang, then what should I call him? I can't call him Brother Yang like you, Miss Jiang, can I? He and I are not that close yet. Maybe after a few years, I can call him Brother Yang."
After saying this, he looked at Jiang Wanying with embarrassment.
"I can't call him Brother Yang, so I can only call him Xiao Yeyang."
"you"
Jiang Wanying stared at Daohua in a daze. She didn't expect that this man would turn her words around like this.
Seeing her like this, Daohua pretended to be embarrassed and said, "If Miss Jiang insists that I call Xiao Yeyang Brother Yang, I can do it reluctantly."
“That’s enough!”
Jiang Wanying felt that she could no longer maintain her composure.
How could the daughter of a fourth-rank official call him Brother Yang?
"I won't bother you anymore, Miss Yan. Just enjoy your cake here."
Daohua immediately smiled and said, "I will. You know what, this cake tastes better and better the more I eat it." After that, she scooped a large spoonful into her mouth with an expression of enjoyment.
Seeing her like this, Jiang Wanying felt so angry that she left quickly with the help of her maid.
"snort!"
As soon as Jiang Wanying left, Daohua snorted coldly: "What the hell!"
What's wrong with her name being Xiao Yeyang?
Xiao Yeyang himself hasn't said anything yet, so what right does Jiang Wanying have to point fingers at him?
On the female side, Mrs. Li felt a little worried after hearing what Dong Yuanyao and the other two said.
Zhou Jingwan: "Aunt, don't worry, the young prince probably just wants to play a trick on Yiyi."
Mrs. Li shook her head and said, "It's also my girl's fault for not knowing how to handle things properly." After saying that, she glanced at where Mrs. Jiang and Miss Jiang were.
Thinking about how everyone was privately discussing the fact that the little prince and Miss Jiang had grown up together as childhood sweethearts, she secretly decided in her heart that she would have to keep her daughter and the little prince at a distance in the future.
Seeing Madam Li's worried expression, Dong Yuanyao quickly said, "Aunt, let's eat quickly and then go accompany Yiyi."
Madam Li smiled and nodded. "That's great. Auntie would like to thank you in advance."
Madam Zhou immediately said, "Look at what you said. The children have a good relationship and it's normal for them to help each other."
In the pavilion, Daohua looked at the half-eaten cake that was left and really regretted making the cake for Xiao Yeyang.
When Xiao Yeyang walked over, he saw Daohua scooping a spoonful of cake with a bitter expression as if she didn't want to eat it but had to, and he immediately laughed out loud.
Hearing the voice, Daohua looked up and saw that it was Xiao Yeyang, and she just snorted.
Xiao Yeyang walked into the pavilion and sat next to Daohua. He took a look at the cake in her hand and said in surprise, "I thought you were going to smash the cake!"
Daohua glanced at him sideways: "How is that possible? This is made of grain. It would be a shame to smash it." Ever since she experienced the famine, she has been particularly cherishing food.
In this era when many people cannot get enough food, wasting food is a sin.
Xiao Yeyang smiled and said, "So you really want to finish it?"
Daohua: "You didn't set a time, so I'll eat slowly."
Xiao Yeyang was surprised: "Why are you so obedient this time?"
Daohua was stunned. Yes, she could disobey him. She should leave after others left. Could it be that Defu would really stop her?
Why can't she think of this in her head?
Seeing her like this, Xiao Yeyang shook his head and took the cake from Daohua's hand.
Daohua quickly asked, "What are you doing?"
Xiao Yeyang glanced at her sideways and said, "You can't finish it, but you can't throw it away, so I have to eat it for you." As he said that, he scooped a large piece of cake and put it into his mouth.
Daohua stared blankly at Xiao Yeyang eating the cake in big mouthfuls. After a while, she realized, "Don't eat this side. I've already eaten this side. You eat that side."
"It's okay, I don't mind you. Besides, it's not good to waste food."
"I didn't realize you're quite frugal."
"When I was kidnapped by human traffickers, they starved me for days and nights. After that, I begged for food with you, and I know how hard it is to get food."
Hearing this, Defu, who was standing outside the pavilion, suddenly looked up.
So that's how it is. No wonder over the years, whenever there is no one around, there are never more than four dishes on the master's table.
