Chapter 93 Yun Zhaoxue serves chicken soup to the Third Prince?
Xiao Xiuning noticed someone was staring at her and looked in the direction of their gaze.
It was Yun Zhaoxue!
It's even more upsetting to be seen looking so miserable by the person you hate the most.
The tears that had been welling up in her eyes finally fell; she had never suffered such injustice in her life.
Why shouldn't she get a bite of the rabbit she caught herself?
Ye Hongying was both angry and helpless. Her childhood dream was to marry a hero, but she was stuck with an unreliable father-in-law and mother-in-law, and her husband was also unreliable.
A grown man, using the excuse of being tired, refused to go into the mountains and sent the two women instead. They cooked the food and then devoured it all, showing a far cry from the prince.
Yun Zhaoxue disrespects her parents-in-law and does not serve her husband. The people of the main branch treat her like a treasure, and they always give her the best food first.
Comparisons can be hurtful.
Unfortunately, Yun Zhaoxue found it amusing.
After finishing the rabbit leg, Wu felt unsatisfied because there wasn't enough meat. The more she ate, the hungrier she became. She licked her fingers with a hint of reluctance and added, "The meat was roasted too dry and tough, and it didn't have much flavor. It wasn't good. You delicate girls are probably not used to eating this, so we ate it for you."
After watching the show, Yun Zhaoxue withdrew her gaze; the wicked will be punished by the wicked.
I boiled eggs in the earthenware pot used for cooking rice, intending to take them with me on the road this afternoon.
There was still a large bowl of chicken left in the iron pot. Everyone was full, and the charcoal was still simmering slowly, and it was boiling again.
Yang decided that each person would receive one egg, with one left over for Yun Zhaoxue.
Xiao Xuance gave her his share as well, making a total of three. "Here you go."
"I don't like eggs, just give me two." Yun Zhaoxue took two eggs and put them into the cloth bag she carried with her.
The weather is so hot it's almost baking people dry, making them thirsty. Eating egg yolks makes them choke, so she doesn't like them.
Xiao Xuance placed the remaining egg in her hand as well: "You are pregnant and need to nourish your body."
His mother had just told him a lot about the taboos for pregnant women.
He also planned to have his men give him books on caring for pregnant women from pregnancy to childbirth; exile conditions were harsh, so it was always better to be cautious.
Yun Zhaoxue grabbed his hand and placed the egg in his palm. "Really, you don't need to. Eat it yourself and get some nutrition so that you won't fall into the trap again if another assassin comes knocking. I don't like weaklings."
She admires strong people.
But there's something strange about that. What does it have to do with Xiao Xuance what kind of man she likes?
The two had no feelings for each other, were not a real couple, and were just living together out of convenience.
The only connection is the child in her womb. If they each find true love or no longer want to be together, they will divorce.
Xiao Xuance tightened his grip on the egg, silently memorizing her last words.
She spoke of his past martial arts prowess in the mountains, her tone full of admiration, suggesting she might have liked him from the past.
He was determined to heal his hands and feet, restore his martial arts skills, and avenge his father.
Seeing that there was still meat left in the pot, Yun Zhaoxue told him to go and put all the meat into a bowl.
He then pretended to rummage through the car and secretly took out a water bladder filled with wine from his spatial storage.
The second wife saw Xiao Xuance fill a bowl with meat, and assumed he was going to give it to Xiao Xiuning.
Wu went around behind the tree and whispered to Xiao Xiuning, who had just cried and looked depressed and unhappy.
"Ning'er, it's all your second uncle and aunt's fault for taking the meat. But we were just too hungry, we were so hungry we fainted or went crazy. We won't do it again. Here's a steamed bun for you. We've been holding back these past two days, but here you go..."
She really couldn't bear to eat those steamed buns. Although it hurt her heart, she felt it was worth it when she thought about being able to eat meat later.
Yun Zhaoxue carried the chicken toward the resting place of the escorts led by Lao Liao.
Last time, Xiao Xuanwu went wrong when she sent it, so this time she sent it herself and also delivered the wine.
Wu coaxed Xiao Xiuning with a white steamed bun and pulled her out. Just then, they saw Yun Zhaoxue carrying chicken past them. She didn't even glance at them, let alone give them the chicken.
I was completely dumbfounded!
Madam Wu muttered under her breath, "What's going on? Wasn't the chicken for Ning'er?"
The eldest son's family has eaten and drunk their fill. If they don't give the chicken to their own daughter, are they going to give it to someone else?
Uncle Xiao guessed, "Ning'er was behind the tree just now, she might not have seen us. Should we call her back?"
Wu pinched his arm in annoyance, "Are you stupid? Ning'er is in our group, but she didn't even glance over here. It's obviously not for Ning'er."
Uncle Xiao, clutching his arm that had been pinched so hard, tried to dodge to the side. "You're smart, can you guess who she's going to give the chicken to?"
Wu watched Yun Zhaoxue's figure weave through the ranks.
Should it be given to the Yun family?
impossible!
Yun Zhaoxue almost beat Yun Xiuwen to death and trampled him underfoot. Her hatred for the Yun family was even deeper than her hatred for their second branch.
Could it be for the Third Prince?
right!
She must have seen that the Third Prince's wife had cooked chicken soup for the Third Prince, and not wanting to be outdone, she also brought chicken soup to please the Third Prince.
The eldest son's wife actually let her do as she pleased; wasn't it Xiao Xuance who served her the chicken soup just now?
Wu walked towards them, stopped at a safe distance of about seven or eight meters, put her hands on her hips, and before she could say anything, she burst out laughing.
"Hahaha……"
“Sister-in-law, your daughter-in-law uses the chicken you cooked to please other men, and you don’t dare to say a word. Unlike my Hongying, who went into the mountains to hunt a rabbit, skinned and roasted it for me herself.”
"My Hongying is so much better. Some people are nowhere near as good as her. You didn't even want Hongying to marry the prince back then, and you pushed her onto our Jing'er instead. We really struck gold! You must be regretting it now, regretting not marrying such a virtuous and capable daughter-in-law as Hongying."
When Ye Hongying heard Madam Wu praising her competence in front of the eldest son's family, her resentment towards her immediately lessened by half.
Her fists clenched tightly, her palms sweating with nervousness. She stared intently at Xiao Xuance's handsome face, hoping to catch a glimpse of regret in him—regret for not marrying her back then.
Yun Zhaoxue must be disgusted by the Crown Prince's martial arts skills being ruined and wants to climb the social ladder by marrying the Third Prince.
No matter what, I will never dislike him, as long as he says the word.
She immediately divorced Xiao Xuanjing and threw herself into his arms.
