Chapter 150 How dare He Yuncheng
Xiao Yunjin and He Yuncheng stayed in the room for the whole morning. No one knew what they were doing or what they said. At noon, the door opened and they went to the dining room together.
All the men in the Duke's Mansion are in the army. Fortunately, He Yuncheng is here. As the son-in-law of the Su family, he can take care of the banquet on their behalf. Otherwise, Xiao Yunjin would not be able to attend this family banquet.
The seating arrangement was also very interesting. Originally, the Duke's wife wanted Xiao Yunjin to sit in the main seat, and she would take An Min and the young master to sit on one side, while He Yuncheng and Su Muxi would sit on the other side. But Xiao Yunjin declined, and the Duke's wife took the main seat, and Xiao Yunjin took He Yuncheng to sit on one side, while Su Muxi, An Min and the young master would sit on the other side.
There were six people sitting at the octagonal table. Xiao Yunjin and Su Muxi sat opposite each other, with Chen'er between them and He Yuncheng.
Xiao Yunjin was quite satisfied with this position. Anyway, He Yuncheng and Su Muxi couldn't sit together. He raised his wine glass and said, "Thank you, Madam Guogong, for your hospitality."
The wine was naturally the specialty of the Duke's wife, Osmanthus wine. Everyone drank a little, except Su Muxi, who was still taking medicine. She drank a sip of ginseng soup, which tasted weird, but it was better than nothing!
She was comforting herself on her own, while the other party was having a great conversation, and they were all having a great time. Xiao Yunjin and He Yuncheng were both good at controlling the situation and talking, and when they both catered to each other at the same time, the Duke's wife naturally enjoyed her meal.
Su Muxi felt that her mother didn't love her anymore, so she turned around to feed Chen'er. There was fish on the table today, so Su Muxi picked out the bones and served Chen'er the food bit by bit.
Chen Er was happy and praised her repeatedly, "Aunt is the best, Aunt is the best."
Although Chen'er is small, Su Muxi really enjoyed the emotional value he provided, and the meal felt smoother.
She was taking medicine and had to avoid certain foods. Today was a banquet for Xiao Yunjin, and most of the dishes were meat, which was better if she could eat it. The key was that there were some dishes she loved but couldn't eat, so she could only watch.
Xiao Yunjin has been keeping an eye on Su Muxi. Seeing Su Muxi's face full of despair, he felt both distressed and curious. After following Su Muxi for some time, he got to know Su Muxi's eating habits a little bit.
"Princess," he called out, "I think the stir-fried thousand-thread leaves in front of you are good. Can you change it?" He picked up the sweet and sour lotus root in front of him and handed it to the maid serving him.
There were several meat dishes in front of Xiao Yunjin, but he chose a vegetarian dish. However, it was better than nothing, and at least better than the vegetarian dishes in front of him. Su Muxi glanced at Tuanzi and motioned her to change the dish.
"You are welcome, Prince Jin. If you like to eat, I will arrange for the kitchen to prepare every meal for you later."
This is really shooting oneself in the foot.
"Thank you, Princess." Xiao Yunjin picked up a piece of stir-fried Thousand Silk Leaves with chopsticks and put it into his mouth, his brows slightly furrowed. What the hell is this?
Su Muxi held back her laughter and picked up a piece of sweet and sour lotus root and started eating it.
There was no commotion after that, but Xiao Yunjin only took a bite of the plate of stir-fried celery leaves that he was about to take.
After dinner, Su Muxi wanted to rest, and Xiao Yunjin and He Yuncheng left together.
It had been a while since she last entertained guests. The Duke's wife had been busy all morning and was a little tired. "These two people really do look a bit alike," she muttered. Several times today she felt that Prince Jin was He Yuncheng, but the next moment she seemed to be an illusion. Prince Jin's face was still so terrifyingly gloomy.
"Whether I look like him or not, why are you looking at me?" Su Muxi felt frightened by the stare of the Duke's wife.
"They look the same, but my son-in-law has a better temper. You'd better be careful about your skin," the Duke's wife threatened.
What the hell is going on? "You really are my dear mother. My stomach hurts so much. I want to sleep," Su Muxi wailed on the bed while holding the hot water bottle.
The Duke's wife softened her heart at once, "You should have a good rest."
Su Muxi slept until the afternoon. He Yuncheng came back, but Xiao Yunjin was nowhere to be found.
The aroma wafted out from the food box, arousing Su Muxi's taste buds. Xiao Yunjin opened the food box and took out the dishes one by one. "I saw that Madam was very greedy today, so I went to the restaurant to order it for you. Although it is vegetarian, it tastes good."
Madam, He Yuncheng has been threatened by her twice and no longer calls her like this. Su Muxi took the opportunity to look at the other party and determine who is standing in front of her now?
"What are you standing there for? Come and eat, or it will get cold soon." It's cold in the northwest, and it's not easy to keep food warm, but the dishes Xiao Yunjin brought out were still steaming.
"Okay," Su Muxi sat over and took the cotton towel handed over by Tuanzi to clean her hands, "Thank you, Prince."
"Try it," Xiao Yunjin handed the chopsticks to Su Muxi. God knows how pitiful Su Muxi looked at noon. He had been thinking about how to get food for Su Muxi all afternoon.
Thinking of what Cang Jue had found out, he felt very distressed. Su Muxi needed to take care of her body, but she couldn't take medicine as meals. His mind was in a mess, and he wondered why Su Muxi cared about him so much. Taking these medicines was not so much for regulating her body as it was because Su Muxi wanted a child for them.
At the same time, he was thinking, he is the Prince of Jin now, so wouldn't Su Muxi want to have a child for He Yuncheng? No, this is absolutely not possible. Xiao Yunjin was happy at one moment, disappointed at another, and distressed at another.
While Su Muxi was eating, Xiao Yunjin was setting the table beside her. He was feeling moody but his expression did not show it at all.
Su Muxi couldn't tell from the outside, so she could only test it. She thought about it, put down her chopsticks, and called softly: "He Yuncheng."
Xiao Yunjin's hands froze for a moment as he was serving the dishes. He took the opportunity to put down his chopsticks and asked, "What's wrong?"
It was Xiao Yunjin, Su Muxi confirmed, and the anger in her heart exploded in an instant. Xiao Yunjin was really too much. He came when he wanted to and replaced him with someone else when he didn't want to. He kept her in the dark, teased her, and humiliated her.
She put down her chopsticks and lost her appetite in an instant. "My stomach hurts so much," she covered her stomach, her whole body shaking.
Xiao Yunjin panicked and quickly came to Su Muxi's side, "Why is it so painful all of a sudden? Is there any medicine to relieve it? Tuanzi, go call the doctor."
Su Muxi held him back and shook her head. "It's a woman's disease. Just take some painkillers. Tuanzi, go make the medicine."
Xiao Yunjin felt so distressed that he picked the person up and walked to the inner room. "Is it because the food just now was not good and conflicted with the medicine? How do you feel now?"
Su Muxi was pretending. She was really uncomfortable, but not to this extent. Now there was no one else in the room. Su Muxi grabbed his hand and pressed it against her abdomen. "Rub it for me, like you did last night."
The skin his fingers touched was a little cold. Su Muxi's belly was not very soft, and her waist was slender and strong. He had grasped it before and was fascinated by it, but now he could not generate a trace of desire in his heart. What burned him was a full-hearted anger called jealousy. How dare He Yuncheng? He deserved to die.
