Old Madam Chen slapped her thigh and said, "Xiao Yanxi, you are absolutely unreasonable! How could my daughter's spirit in heaven feel at ease seeing you allowing a servant to embarrass her family like this?"

In the past, she was the wife of a high and mighty Duke, and she had to put on airs, and every move she made represented the reputation of the Duke's Mansion.

Now that she was exiled, she had completely let herself go, just like a shrew on the streets, and she was just about to throw a tantrum like Chen Xiaobao.

Xiao Yanxi ignored her. Old Madam Chen was unwilling to give in and wanted to get up from the ground and have a good argument with Xiao Yanxi.

Old Master Chen said unhappily, "Alright, just shut up!"

Now that the whole family is in such a predicament, if they want to turn things around, they have to rely on Xiao Yanxi.

Even if he couldn't join forces with Xiao Yanxi, he at least had to know where Xiao Yanxi's private soldiers and army were, so that he would have a trump card to join others.

Now he knows nothing and is of no value to be used. Who would go against the emperor and lend a helping hand to his family?

But unfortunately, this family does not understand his painstaking efforts and targets Xiao Yanxi everywhere. How can he restore his relationship with Xiao Yanxi?

Old Master Chen's gaze inadvertently fell on Chen Xinyu, who was massaging Old Madam Chen's shoulders and legs.

"Grandma, you are old and very tired. Please don't be angry with others. Take care of yourself."

Old Madam Chen took a breath and glanced at Old Master Chen with dissatisfaction: "Xinyu is still sensible."

Chen Xinyu lowered her head.

I thought she was willing to show filial piety to Old Madam Chen, but she just wanted to get benefits from Old Madam Chen.

The first and second wives don't have much money, and the richest one is Old Madam Chen.

But Old Madam Chen didn't spend a penny on the whole journey, and let the first and second wives pay for everything. How could this be acceptable?

"Oh, okay, okay, it smells so good!"

The food in the pot was finally ready. Although it was a bit unsightly, it tasted good. Xiao Zhenzhen had already squatted beside it with a bowl in her hand, swallowing her saliva.

Old Madam Chen also swallowed her saliva. Seeing that the servants hadn't brought a bowl of noodles and the fire hadn't even been lit, she angrily scolded, "You two are dead. By the time you cook the meal, it will be daybreak!"

The two servants had sad faces. There was neither rice nor noodles. What could they do?

All I can do is add some water and cook some wild vegetables.

But they don’t know what they can eat and what they can’t eat. What if they get diarrhea after eating everything?

"Mom, I want to eat meat!" Chen Xiaobao smelled the fragrance coming from Xie Fanjin and took a deep breath.

Mrs. Chen Er had a headache: "Be good, mother has no money, don't eat meat today, have some snacks instead."

She felt sorry for the money and the children, but with so many mouths to feed, the cooked meat would have to be shared among the old couple, and the children would only be able to eat a few bites. As a mother, she was afraid that she wouldn't even get a sip of the broth.

Mrs. Chen Er looked at Mrs. Chen Da who was pretending to be a quail and said: "Sister-in-law, mother said yesterday that you spend money today."

Mrs. Chen was annoyed: "The money has been spent. You spent fifteen cents yesterday, and I also spent fifteen cents today."

Moreover, Mrs. Chen Er spent money on fish yesterday. She spent fifteen cents, but the whole family didn't even get to eat a single bun.

She is at a loss.

Mrs. Chen Er was unhappy: "How can we compare? Yesterday, at least everyone had something to eat. Now everyone is exhausted after a long day and starving. You can't let everyone starve, right?"

So, Mrs. Chen brought up the fact that she spent money but didn't eat the buns, and the two families started arguing.

Xie Fanjin drank a bowl of dumpling soup and felt a little unsatisfied, but there was not much left in the pot, so he had to share it with the two grown men.

Xiao Yanxi is a patient, and Bingyi is the one who does the most work.

Xiao Yanxi saw Xie Fanjin swallowing his saliva and finishing the dumpling soup in the bowl, then said, "I'm full."

Bingyi said nothing, his face almost buried in the bowl.

He was hungry, and that little bit of food was just enough to fill his stomach.

"Master, how about I go hunting?" Bingyi came up with this brilliant idea.

Xiao Yanxi glanced at Xie Fanjin, then looked at the officials.

Bingyi went straight to find Wang Tiezhu. Wang Tiezhu was reluctant at first, but then Bingyi said something and he waved his hand impatiently.

Bingyi was immediately happy and dived into the mountains.

Bingyi left, and there was still some dumpling soup left. Xie Fanjin added some water to it, so that the remaining four people each got a bowl.

Bingyi was indeed quite capable. When it was completely dark, he brought back a rabbit and a pheasant.

The pheasant was given to Wang Tiezhu. He originally wanted to roast the rabbit, but finally he listened to Jin's advice and stewed it with some wild vegetables.

This way there is meat and soup, which is easier to digest.

So Xie Fanjin and the others planned to have a second dinner.

"Ah, there's meat..."

Chen Xiaobao, who was finally coaxed by Mrs. Chen Er and reluctantly took two bites of the pastry, saw Xie Fanjin stewing meat, and ran over while swallowing his saliva.

Without caring whether the meat in the pot was cooked or hot, he reached out, grabbed a piece and put it in his mouth.

Then I heard his scream: "Ah, it's so hot..."

It was quite hot, and blisters formed on my lips and tongue.

Mrs. Chen Er cried out in distress: "Oh my dear, it hurts so much!"

No one here pays attention to her.

Mrs. Chen Er also swallowed her saliva when she saw the rabbit meat cooking in the pot: "Xiao Yanxi, you are simply crazy, do you want to scald my darling to death?"

Xiao Zhenzhen whispered, "Second aunt, he came to steal our things."

"Shut up, you ungrateful bastard. I was so nice to you in vain!"

Xiao Zhenzhen felt a little aggrieved. Her second aunt had not been nice to her before. She would take good things from her palace from time to time under the pretext of visiting her in the palace. Now she even said that she was an ungrateful person.

Mrs. Chen Er was furious: "My dear baby got burned. Xie Fanjin, you have to treat him. I won't ask you to pay me, so just give us this pot of rabbit meat as compensation!"

Xie Fanjin, who was roasting sweet potatoes, used the stick in his hand that was emitting sparks to burn on the instep of Mrs. Chen Er's foot. A hole was burned in the upper of Mrs. Chen Er's shoe, and she jumped three feet high immediately.

"You little bitch, what are you doing? Are you trying to burn me to death?"

Xie Fanjin spoke slowly, "It was your son who came to steal our meat. I'm lucky enough not to settle the score with you, but you even asked me to treat his illness and compensate you for the rabbit meat. Did a donkey kick your brain?"

At this time, Chen Xinyu's voice rang out: "Xiaobao is just a child, what can he understand? You watched him burn his mouth and did nothing. That's your problem."

Xie Fanjin had indeed deliberately let Chen Xiaobao grab the meat. She wanted to teach Chen Xiaobao a lesson, and even if she stopped Chen Xiaobao, she would only be scolded for being stingy and would not get any good results.

However, Mrs. Chen Er deliberately allowed Chen Xiaobao to come here, wanting her son to take advantage of her.

At this time, Chen Xiaobao rolled on the ground: "Ah, wuwu... It hurts... I want to eat meat... I want to eat meat..."

After hearing what Chen Xinyu said, Mrs. Chen II was so angry that she gnashed her teeth and wanted to teach Xie Fanjin a lesson: "Well, you little bitch, you are deliberately harming my son...ah..."

Before he finished speaking, Xie Fanjin hit Mrs. Chen Er's leg with the sparking stick in his hand: "Keep your mouth clean, or don't blame me for being rude."

Seeing that her pants were good to her and had a big hole burned in them, and her legs were about to get blisters, Mrs. Chen Er trembled with anger.

She angrily shouted at Mr. Chen who was lying beside her: "Husband, your wife and children are being bullied, and you don't do anything about it?"

At this time, Old Madam Chen said slowly, "Alright, let them compensate for half of the rabbit meat. After all, it takes two to tango."

She said this as if she was very magnanimous.

Mr. Chen Er agreed: "That's right, it's not much different, don't go too far."

This was a bit illogical, but Xie Fanjin wasn't someone to be trifled with. "You wish! Forget rabbit meat! There's not even a bone!"

Chen Xinyu was a little helpless: "Xie Fanjin, this is not your turn to be the boss."

This maid is too arrogant.

Xie Fanjin's eyes fell on Chen Xinyu: "You speak as if you are the one who calls the shots."

Chen Xinyu bit her lip, looking annoyed.

Chen Xinyu's elder brother, Chen Qingbo, saw his sister being wronged and couldn't help but speak up: "My sister is right. You are just a maid, why do you want to make the decision on everything? Do you think you are the mistress of the house?"
