"Cousin Yun, please stop making trouble. Fourth cousin's wife is here to fast with Brother Nan Zheng." Mu Wan'er looked at the table, clenched her fists, put away her emotions, smiled slightly, and pulled Wang Siyun: "Let's go, don't disturb Brother Nan Zheng and Fourth cousin's wife."

She seemed to be trying to persuade him but in fact she was adding fuel to the fire.

What does "don't disturb" mean? It clearly implies that the two of them are doing things that are not suitable for others to be present. Wang Sijun can't stand it.

"Brother Zheng!" Wang Sijun stamped her feet: "Let her go quickly."

But Ji Nanzheng did not let go.

He shrank his pupils and asked Wan Zhou to promise him.

Wan Zhou felt very uncomfortable being covered, and finally chose to admit defeat. He nodded, and Ji Nanzheng let go.

"Jiangnan, send the young lady back." Ji Nanzheng immediately ordered them to leave. He was really worried about Wan Zhou's mouth.

But Wan Zhou doesn't want to leave now.

She was already clear about Mu Wan'er's intention of adding fuel to the fire, which was only to deepen Wang Sijun's misunderstanding of her.

The misunderstanding is so deep that Wang Sijun must be making trouble for her every day, right?

Annoying as hell.

In that case, she will be a good person today and let Wang Sijun see how her good sister Mu Wan'er covets Ji Nanzheng.

Reciprocity is a courtesy.

"General, I am a very pious person. Since I am fasting with you, I must finish this meal sincerely."

Wan Zhou walked to the seat she was in just now and sat down, her meaning was obvious: she wanted to stay.

Wang Sijun hated it so much that he said angrily, "Brother Zheng is fasting, why are you offering your kindness?"

"Sister Yun, you don't know this, right? If the general fasts alone, it can only be counted as one merit. If I help, it will be counted as two merits." Wan Zhou said nonsense in a serious tone.

Ji Nanzheng: "..."

When did he accumulate merit by eating carrots? Even if he wanted to accumulate merit, why would he need her help?

Before Wang Sijun could find a strong counterattack to this new statement, Mu Wan'er spoke.

"Yes, Sister Yun, why don't we stay and eat together? Wouldn't that give Brother Nan Zheng two more merits?"

Wan Zhou smiled knowingly.

Mu Wan'er was indeed being pretentious. She just said that she would not disturb him, but now she took the initiative to stay.

After all, she was just taking the opportunity to show her sincere heart in front of Ji Nanzheng.

"Sister Wan'er is really thoughtful and always thinks about the general." Wan Zhou had his own plan in mind and did not hesitate to praise Mu Wan'er.

Ji Nanzheng was very sure that Wan Zhou stayed to cause trouble. He originally wanted to drive Wan Zhou away and then drive away the other two uninvited guests.

Just want some peace and quiet.

Now, he could actually just kick all three of them out, but the trouble was Gu Wanzhou, and he couldn't guarantee that she wouldn't say anything nonsense again.

Since she wants to stay, then find a way to make her stay until the end, and find a way to make Gu Wanzhou shut up completely.

Therefore, he did not say anything to stop him, but sat down in his previous seat with a cold look, facing Wan Zhou.

When Mu Wan'er saw that Ji Nanzheng did not refuse, she was delighted and sat down at the other side of the table in a dignified manner.

Wang Sijun looked at the big bowl of radishes on the table and couldn't help frowning.

She had never eaten boiled radish before, but she had heard that Ji Nanzheng would sometimes vomit after eating it. The thought of it being so disgusting made her resist from the bottom of her heart.

But Wanzhou and Mu Wan'er both wanted to accompany Ji Nanzheng to eat, so how could she not eat? Not only did she have to eat, but she had to eat more to outdo Gu Wanzhou.

She would have been hungry at night, but her aunt would definitely not say anything if she accompanied her cousin in fasting.

I had already had a skipped lunch and was feeling a little hungry now. Maybe radish wasn't so bad after all.

"Add more bowls and chopsticks." Wang Sijun made up his mind and sat down.

Wang Sijun was thinking about competing with Wan Zhou, while Mu Wan'er was thinking about taking advantage of this opportunity to make her presence felt in front of Ji Nanzheng.

When Ji Nanzheng went to the battle, she was only 12 years old and still a little girl. She was quite close to Ji Nanzheng. Now that Ji Nanzheng has returned triumphantly and she is older, she doesn't have many opportunities to meet him.

Wan Zhou was very satisfied with this situation. With three women and one man, this show was quite interesting.

The four people sat down, each taking a seat. After the servants had prepared the dishes and chopsticks, Wang Sijun did not let the maid serve him. Instead, he filled a bowl himself and ate two pieces of food at once, very generously.

"Ah, bah, bah, what is this?" Wang Sijun was about to spit it out after chewing it for a while, and her maid quickly took a handkerchief to catch it.

She was the eldest daughter of the Marquis's family. She had lived a life of luxury since childhood. Even when she was sick and ate plain porridge, she would add sugar to it.

Ji Nanzheng’s boiled radish is different from ordinary radishes. In order to make it more memorable, he specially cooks the variety with a stronger astringent taste.

As soon as Wang Sijun took the radish in her mouth, she felt the bitterness. How could the young lady bear it?

"Brother Zheng, this is too disgusting."

Seeing Wang Sijun's disrespectful look and Ji Nanzheng's frown, Mu Wan'er picked a piece elegantly.

She always had a faint smile on her face as she chewed slowly. Compared with Wang Sijun's image, she was incredibly elegant.

"Sister Yun, try chewing it slowly. It tastes quite special." Mu Wan'er said caringly and gently.

She just wanted to create a contrast between her image and Wang Sijun's. The greater the contrast, the clearer their images would be in Ji Nanzheng's mind.

Wan Zhou smiled secretly: Mu Wan'er borrowed her lines.

She herself was acting, and obviously, Mu Wan'er was also acting.

"I once read in a book that boiled radish is a beauty product. Sister Wan'er, you are so beautiful, you must have grown up eating boiled radish." Wan Zhou lied with his eyes open, but his attitude of praising was sincere.

"My fourth cousin's wife is really good at joking." Mu Wan'er glanced at Ji Nanzheng out of the corner of her eye, looking shy.

"I'm serious. General, you are the most fair. Tell me, isn't Sister Wan'er pretty?" Wan Zhou seemed to be determined to prove that Mu Wan'er was pretty.

Ji Nanzheng: "..."

He knew Wan Zhou had bad intentions, but he couldn't figure out what they were.

"Prettier than you." Ji Nanzheng also lied with his eyes open.

Usually, a woman would feel embarrassed if someone said she was not as pretty as someone else, but Wan Zhou didn't think so at all. She smiled and said, "I said the general is fair. Sister Wan'er, you should eat more. You must become more and more beautiful and become the most beautiful woman in our Shangjing."

As Wan Zhou spoke, he filled all the bowls in front of Mu Wan'er.

Mu Wan'er was praised to the utmost by Wan Zhou, and this was done in front of Ji Nanzheng, so she felt very happy and ate the radish with a shy smile.

The bitter and bland radish tasted slightly sweet to her and gave her a sense of happiness.

But Wang Sijun was unhappy.

Ji Nanzheng said that Mu Wan'er was prettier than Gu Wanzhou, and she was very happy, which meant that her cousin did not like Gu Wanzhou's annoyingly beautiful face.

But what did Gu Wanzhou mean? Mu Wan'er was the most beautiful woman in Shangjing? Mu Wan'er was her good sister, and she had no intention of competing with Mu Wan'er, but she felt very uncomfortable when someone said it, especially in front of Ji Nanzheng.

She was not convinced.

He frowned again, picked up a piece of radish and put it into his mouth.

She didn't vomit this time, but her expression was similar to that when her stomach was bloated and constipated.

Wan Zhou continued: "The general should like Sister Wan'er very much... such a gentle, considerate and beautiful woman, right?"
