Then, Mo Xi took out a pair of silver chopsticks and handed them to Mo Lan: "I know that sister is not used to using other people's chopsticks, so I brought them for you before going out."
Mo Lan was startled at first, and then stretched out her catkins. A strange look flashed in the eyes of the second lady beside her, and she secretly thought to herself that such a shrewd girl even brought silver chopsticks. Could it be that she was afraid that she would poison the food? Fortunately, she
She did not do this because she was worried that the eldest lady's baby daughter would be eating today, and the mother and daughter themselves would have to eat these dishes, so she thought of a way. Even the gods would not be able to guess that she would
Apply the poison powder to the sides of the soup bowl.
Thinking of this, the second lady's lips raised a proud smile, and she still greeted warmly: "Everyone, eat quickly, eat!"
"Second mother is the elder. You haven't even touched your chopsticks yet. How can we, the juniors, eat first?" Mo Lan suddenly spoke, which made everyone at the table widen their eyes in surprise.
.
After getting along with each other these days, Mo Xi also understood. Although his sister Mo Lan is timid and not good at words, she is like a bright mirror in her heart, very clear!
Qin Ruotao was startled at first. What a fourth lady, she actually let her eat first. Wasn't it obvious that she was afraid of plotting against her? From this point of view, the two girls in the third room were not easy to deal with. Then, Qin Ruotao seemed to inadvertently
Glancing at her daughter Mo Yunshi, her eyes fell back to Mo Lan again, and she said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Lan'er doesn't talk much on weekdays, but she is also a thoughtful person. Okay, okay, the second mother will eat first!"
A hint of complexity flashed across Mo Yunshi's eyes, and she was also thinking secretly in her heart that a fifth young lady is already difficult to deal with. Unexpectedly, fourth young lady Mo Lan seems to be bolder now. If these two sisters show their true feelings,
I'm afraid it's not that easy to deal with.
Mo Yingluo on the side picked up her chopsticks to pick up the vegetables. She seemed a little careless. She didn't plan to come originally, but her mother went to the Peony Pavilion in person last night and didn't know what she said to her mother.
Let her come and sit here today.
The next moment, Mo Yunshi suddenly said: "Qingluan, what are you doing here? Why don't you go to the stove outside and bring the fresh fish soup to the ladies?"
"Yes, Miss Second." Qingluan responded timidly, and then the steaming fish soup was served. The rich fragrance penetrated down the nostrils, making people salivate.
Mo Xi smiled and said nothing, silently observing their actions. Even a small glance was recorded in her eyes. Especially the maid's cautious and 'unusual' behavior when serving soup attracted her special attention.
When the maid carefully handed the filled fish soup to Mo Lan, she said respectfully: "Miss Fourth, please use it slowly..."
"You girl, you really have no rules. Who is the oldest in this room? This bowl of soup should be given to the elders. Why is it not the fourth lady's turn..." Mo Xi shouted coldly and glared.
The maid Qingluan glanced at it, then personally picked up the bowl of fish soup that was placed in front of Mo Lan, and respectfully placed it in front of Qin Ruotao opposite.
