With just one glance, Chen Yongxing understood. He pushed Chen Lizheng inside and said, "That's right, Uncle Chen, sit down and have a meal. No matter how busy you are, there's no rush."
As they spoke, Wan Qiqi had already packed the rice and placed it on the table, gesturing for Chen Lizheng to sit down.
Chen Lizheng is now in a dilemma; he can neither leave nor sit down.
Chen Yongxing didn't give Chen Lizheng a chance to think. He pressed Chen down onto the stool and said, "Sit down and eat. Try my sister-in-law's cooking. Even Miss Fang praised it as delicious!"
Seeing that she had already sat down, Chen Lizheng stopped resisting and asked, "Qiqi, you were arrested a while ago, are you alright? Did the guards in the jail give you any trouble?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yongxing immediately served food to Chen Lizheng.
