Zhen Shiniang sighed secretly.

After all, he was spoiled. He must have lost his appetite just looking at this mediocre person. Suddenly she didn't notice Shen Zhongqing's strange behavior, and Zhen Shiniang casually picked up an egg roll and put it in his bowl, "General, try my concubine's." Craftsmanship." He broke off half of the vegetable dumplings and ate them first, not forgetting to introduce, "This was just steamed at noon today, made with shrimp paste and radish."

Jian Wen and Jian Wu couldn't afford white noodles, and Jian Wen and Jian Wu thought corn flour was too thick to swallow, so Zhen Shiniang simply mixed corn and white noodles into the dumplings, adding different fillings every day.

Seeing that she was eating well, Shen Zhongqing picked up a vegetable dumpling and took a bite. His expression was shocked, and then he started eating it.

The porridge was very hot. Zhen Shiniang drank it slowly with a spoon. She finally finished the bowl. When she looked up, she saw that Shen Zhongqing had already eaten the whole plate of dumplings and four side dishes. After eating more than half of the meal, he saw her raising her head and said with unfinished content, "...this vegetable dumpling looks ugly, but I didn't expect it to be so delicious. I also ate cornmeal when I was a kid, but I didn't remember it being so delicious."

"This is mixed with white flour..." Zhen Shiniang said with a smile.

"I'm telling you." He looked at Zhen Shiniang, "Is there anything else?" Seeing Zhen Shiniang's surprise, he explained awkwardly, "After running around all day, I feel very hungry as soon as I sit at the table."

Then who sat there for a long time and refused to move his chopsticks?

Zhen Shiniang was heartbroken, but she kept her mouth shut and said, "I didn't know the general was coming, so I steamed a pot at noon. Most of it was taken away by Magpie and the others, but it was gone." She handed the remaining half of the plate to her. He said to him, "I can just drink the porridge, and the general can eat it."

After looking at her thin body, Shen Zhongqing put the vegetable balls into her bowl and said, "...You can eat it and give me a bowl of porridge." His tone was light and natural, and even he himself didn't realize that there was something in this simple reply. With a hint of concern.

Doesn't he like sweets?

Zhen Shiniang was a little surprised, but she didn't give in anymore and obeyed and served him a bowl of porridge.

After dinner, Zhen Shiniang took Magpie Qiuju to clean up the dishes, while Shen Zhongqing and Rongsheng went for a walk by the pond in the backyard, "...what do you think, grandma?" Walking slowly, Shen Zhongqing blinked. There was a trace of confusion in it.

"Grandma seems to be a different person than she was five years ago." In the night, Rongsheng blinked, "Even the servants can't believe that she can be so content with the status quo."

"I think so too." Shen Zhongqing suddenly turned around, "Tell me, how could she change so much?"

"People are like this..." Rong Sheng said casually, "Life has been hard, and any arrogant temper has disappeared." Her previous temper was not penetrated. Thinking of something, he raised his head and looked at Shen Zhongqing, "The servants looked at them as if they were living a very miserable life. The only kang cabinet in Grandma's house was turning white. The lowest servants in our house were living in better places than she was. Isn't it better to just watch Grandma live there? In that room, all the slaves thought they were entering someone's warehouse..." Under the dim moonlight, he carefully looked at Shen Zhongqing's face. Seeing Zhen Shiniang's life like this with his own eyes, Rong Sheng also felt pitiful. I have the intention to say something nice, but I am afraid it will backfire.

As a well-known general of the three armies, Shen Zhongqing was a murderer on the battlefield, and he was not a compassionate person.

Seeing him turn around and continue walking, Rong Sheng trotted to catch up, "...I never saw grandma cooking when I was in Zhuangyuan Mansion. I didn't expect her cooking skills to be so good. There didn't seem to be any oil or water in the dishes. But It tastes so delicious, especially the mushroom egg roll, it's so delicious, and..." She scratched her head in embarrassment, "I almost had all the dumplings on the plate made by the servants, and Qiu Ju and Magpie didn't seem to be full." Thinking of Qiu. Ju opened her eyes wide and stared at the last vegetable dumpling in his hand like a monster, and Rongsheng's face turned hot.

Following Shen Zhongqing, he had never seen any delicacies from the mountains and seas. It was the first time for him to grab a meal with a woman. Looking back now, why did he have to grab the dumplings just now by some strange combination?

He was making a scene as if he had never seen anything to eat, which was really embarrassing to his grandma's house.

He also remembered that there was only half a bowl of potatoes and beans stewed on his table, and even the two plates of pickles were eaten by him with the porridge. Shen Zhongqing touched his full belly, and a rare trace of satisfaction appeared on his face. .

Her cooking skills are really good. If you get tired of the food in the house, you can come here to improve it. She took it for granted and completely forgot that if they divorced, would Zhen Shiniang be willing to be so meek? Serve him.

"With this meal today, we probably ate enough food for the three of her for several days. Before you leave tomorrow, think about going to the town to buy some rice and meat to supply them."

"Yes!" After saying this a lot, Rong Sheng was waiting for this sentence.

He didn't want to be seen as a freeloader by Qiu Ju.

When I came back from a walk, I saw the magpie bringing Qiu Ju in with a set of new bedding. Seeing them coming back, the magpie hurriedly pulled Qiu Ju out of the way.

Rong Sheng asked, "...Why are you holding this?"

"There are not enough quilts at home, so I went back and made a bed."

Rong Sheng looked at Shen Zhongqing in shock.

A flash of surprise flashed in Shen Zhongqing's eyes, and then he stepped into the house without saying a word.

Putting down the quilt, Magpie turned around and looked at Rongsheng, "... I feel sorry for Rongsheng. Let's go to my slave's house to deal with him tonight. My slave's house is not far from here, right behind the pond."

Let Rongsheng go to her home?

So where does Jian Wen and Jian Wu live?

She heard that Shen Zhongqing wanted to live here, so she went to Xique's house and coaxed Jian Wen and Jianwu into agreeing to stay there that night. After hearing this, Zhen Shiniang frowned. Seeing that Xique was extremely serious, she He suppressed the doubts in his heart and just stood aside quietly and watched.

"Go to your house?" He still had to serve the general. Rong Sheng pointed to the backyard, "Isn't there a house in the backyard?" When he was walking with the general just now, he could clearly see that there were four or five rooms in a row in the backyard. What about the big tile-roofed house?

"The backyard has not been cleaned, and..." Magpie glanced at Zhen Shiniang, "There are no extra beddings at home..." When the master and servant Shen Zhongqing found out that their life was like this, Magpie also I felt blushing and suddenly lost my confidence.

"...How did you end up in this situation?" Rong Sheng muttered and looked at Shen Zhongqing.

"Just go over there." Shen Zhongqing frowned.

Seeing how poor the main house was, Rong Sheng could also imagine the embarrassment in the backyard, so he nodded, "Then, the slave will come over early tomorrow morning to serve the general?"

Shen Zhongqing was speechless.

Magpie turned around and told Qiu Ju, "You can take Rongsheng first, as long as the lady and I are here."

Qiu Ju responded, "Brother Rong, please come with me."

Rong Sheng left with Qiu Ju.

Magpie was about to take off her shoes and get on the kang bed when she suddenly remembered that Zhen Shiniang and Jian Wu Jianwen had been living in the east room since she resigned from her nanny half a month ago, and their bedding was in the kang cabinet!

She didn't expect that Shen Zhongqing would be involved in borrowing a quilt. When she just sent Rongsheng away, she vowed that there were no quilts at home. Now she suddenly found that there was luggage in the kang cabinet. What should Shen Zhongqing think?

Do you want to tell him that those are his son's, too young to use his body?

The magpie looked at Zhen Shiniang uneasily.

Subconsciously, she still hopes that Zhen Shiniang can tell Shen Zhongqing frankly that he has a son, so as not to be so trembling.

Seeing that they were the only ones left in the room, Shen Zhongqing also looked at Zhen Shiniang.
