Chapter 237 Bargaining, or increase it ten times



"Mom, I was wrong. I will write it carefully now." Chenchen became very nervous when he saw his mother like this.

You have to know that once mother shows this expression, it is a sign of anger. Although mother will not punish him too harshly, when father comes back, his two short legs will probably not be able to lift up again.

Every time my father came back and knew that he had made my mother angry, he would punish him by making him run ten laps in the yard. Although the yard was not very big, it was still very tiring after ten laps.

"Take your hand away quickly, otherwise you know the consequences when your father comes back." Wen Mianmian said with a stern face.

When Chenchen heard the word "Ama", he felt a chill in his heart and slowly moved his hand away.

He kept begging for mercy, "Mother, I was really wrong. Please don't tell Father, okay?"

After moving his hand away, what Chenchen had just drawn was revealed.

"Tell me, what is drawn on this paper?"

Chenchen lowered his head and stammered, "Turtle...Turtle."

"I asked you to write your own name, but you haven't even finished writing it yet, and you're still in the mood to draw a turtle? Go ahead and draw it. Look at what you drew, is it a turtle?"

If he hadn't said it was a turtle, Wen Mianmian would have thought it was a stone.

"Now, I punish you by making you write your name and everyone else's name twenty times. And the handwriting must be straight, not crooked."

"Look at how well your sister and brother write. Mother asked you to practice calligraphy, but you're drawing a turtle. If you want to draw, you can draw whatever you want once you've mastered your calligraphy."

"Ah, mother, twenty times is too many. How about ten times?" Chenchen stretched out ten chubby little fingers and looked at his mother pitifully.

"You still want to bargain, or increase the price ten more times."

"Twenty is twenty, I'll just write it." Chenchen put down his hand, took another piece of rice paper and spread it out, picked up the brush, and looked up at his mother again.

Seeing that his mother was looking at him, Chenchen put away his little thoughts and began to write his name seriously.

Wen Mianmian sighed, and seeing that he was writing seriously, she went to look at Xuanxuan, Tiantian and the others.

Seeing that they were all writing seriously, Wen Mianmian sat on the other side and began to think about what to eat tonight.

After it was written, Wang An took it to the kitchen.

After Wang An got it, he went there immediately. He knew that the concubine would be hungry easily since she was pregnant, and it was getting late. If he took it now, the kitchen would prepare it earlier.

"Hey, Eunuch Wang An, why are you here so early?" A young eunuch from the kitchen saw Wang An coming and kindly took a small stool and placed it in front of him.

"Come, come, sit down and rest for a while." The young eunuch even wiped it with his sleeve.

"Okay, stop it. I'm here to order food for our master." Wang An didn't sit down, but took out the meal list written by his concubine from his sleeve.

"Where is Chef Yun?" Wang An looked around but didn't see Yun De'an.

"Chief Eunuch Yun is in the back. I'll go call him right away. Eunuch Wang An, please sit here and rest for a while." The young eunuch said this and immediately ran to the back.

Soon Yun De'an came quickly from behind.

"Why did Eunuch Wang An come so early today? What would the concubine like to eat?" Yun De'an said with a smile.

"Everything the concubine wants to eat is written here. Prepare it early. The concubine and the young prince are waiting." Wang An handed him the meal list.

Yun De'an took it, took a look, and saw that it was almost the same as before. He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll start preparing it now, and have someone send it over when it's done."

"Well, it's okay, I'll go back first." Wang An said and went back.

Yun De'an handed the menu to the eunuch beside him and instructed, "Start preparing the dishes according to the list."

"Okay." The young eunuch took the meal list and went to prepare the dishes quickly.

The young eunuch hurried to prepare the food.

Wang An had barely walked for half a cup of tea when Yue Ling, who was beside Li, walked in.

As soon as she came in, no one greeted her. Yue Ling was very dissatisfied. These people really looked down on people. When they were favored princesses, they were so attentive to them.

When the princess regains the favor of her master in the future, she will make sure these people are out of her reach.

After a while, a young eunuch finally noticed her, "Hey, isn't this Sister Yueling who was beside Li Gege? Why are you here?"

"Our princess wanted to drink a bowl of Tremella soup, so she asked me to come and get it." Yue Ling smiled politely.

"Gege Li wants to eat Tremella Soup." The young eunuch showed a hint of embarrassment on his face, and then said, "I'm afraid we'll have to wait a while. Concubine Wen just sent someone to order food, so everyone is busy right now."

"It's okay, no rush, I can wait a while."

"Okay, then you wait at the door for a while. Once we're done here, we'll come and make Tremella soup for Li Gege." The young eunuch said this and continued to get busy.

Yue Ling looked around and saw that everyone was busy with their own things. Seeing the fish prepared in front, Yue Ling pretended to be indifferent and walked around.

"Yueling, you are here too."

Yue Ling's hand stopped just as she was about to take something. She turned around in fright, concealing her panic, and spoke to the person who came.

"Mu...Muxiang, are you here to get Song Gege's meal too?"

"Well, what are you doing here?" Muxiang felt a little strange.

"Our princess wants to eat Tremella soup, but the chefs in the kitchen are not available right now, so I want to wait here." Yue Ling collected her thoughts and tried to speak in a normal tone.

"Oh~" Muxiang didn't doubt anything immediately.

After all, things like this happen every day.

After saying a few words to her, Muxiang went to talk to the eunuch here about the meal that Song Gege wanted.

Because Muxiang was there, Yueling didn't continue what she had just done.

The two waited here for about an incense stick of time before going back with the food from their own courtyard.

They were not like Concubine Wen, who had people delivering things to them, but they had to take it themselves.

On the way back, Muxiang suddenly felt that Yueling's behavior in the kitchen just now was a little strange, but she couldn't figure out what was strange, so she simply stopped thinking about it.

Maybe I'm just overthinking it.

By the time Muxiang brought the food back, it was almost dark.

While Song was eating, she noticed that Muxiang was distracted.

While eating, she started to speak: "Muxiang...Muxiang..." Song called Muxiang several times before she came to her senses.

"Gege, what's wrong?"

"What's wrong with you? Why have you been in a daze since you came back? Is something wrong?" Song looked at her and asked.

"It's okay. I just thought Yue Ling beside Li Gege was a little strange in the kitchen just now. Maybe I was overthinking it."

When Song heard that it was related to people around Li, she immediately became interested.
