At dusk, the food was ready, and Ye Xunqing asked Ye Xunbai and Xie Zhiyan to notify everyone to come for dinner.

His grandmother and aunt's family must be invited, as well as the siblings Da Mi and Xiaomi, and the third mother-in-law and others.

Third Grandma didn't come. She has been tinkering with something at home recently and doesn't like to go out much. Luzhu came alone.

On the way, he met Ye Xilan, who was carrying a flower basket containing gifts from her mother to Ye Xunqing.

"Sister Lan." Luzhu called out and followed her.

Ye Xilan reached out and grabbed her wrist. "I heard from my father that the Liu family is looking for you again? If you're scared, come live with me. I live alone."

Luzhu shook her head gently. "Thank you, Sister Lan, but I won't bother you anymore. If I go to your house, my mother-in-law will be lonely. But Sister Lan, you have to be careful. I heard from the Liu family that some people have come to the town recently and they say they are kidnapping children."

Ye Xilan told her not to worry, "You're not talking about the guests from Grandpa Xie's house, are you? I heard they are all good people. It must be Grandpa Xie's children who came to see them."

Luzhu shook her head again, worry on her small face. "I heard they're asking around, looking for young girls, boys and girls."

Ye Xilan stopped smiling and said, "Then I'll go back and tell my father to talk to the villagers about it so that the child won't be abducted."

There were cases of child kidnapping when they were young, causing panic among the people. Later, the group of child thieves were caught, and people finally felt relieved.

"Don't think about these things for now. Let's go eat. Brother Xunqing has made a lot of delicious food. If we go too late, we won't be able to eat it." Ye Xilan pulled Luzhu and ran to Ye Xunqing's house.

There were many children who came, but no adults came. Yang Qin and Wen Xiyan cooked at home. They felt that since they were women, it would not be appropriate for them to meet men outside of their family.

Ye Xunqing went to invite them personally, but they still didn't come. He didn't insist anymore and just served them some dishes.

Xie Hui will definitely sit at the main table, so who sits next to him is very important.

According to the rules of ordinary families, when a distinguished guest comes, the head of the family must accompany him. However, Feng Datong is not able to be the head of the family now. It is good enough for him to have a place in this place. He still wants to be the head of the family. There must be a limit to his dreams, right?

Next to Xie Hui was his son, and next to Xie Zhiyan was Ye Xunbai.

The child was young and didn't know where he should sit, so Xie Zhiyan asked him to go over, and he went over.

When Ye Hongxia saw this, she immediately said, "Xiaobai, you can't sit there. That's for guests."

Ye Xunbai stood up from the stool, "Oh, then I'll sit in another seat."

"There's no need to make so many arguments. Just sit wherever is convenient for you." Xie Hui said, "Xiaobai, you and Zhizhi sit here together. I'll sit somewhere else."

Having said that, Xie Hui left his seat and sat down below.

Seeing Xie Hui change his seat, Ye Xunqing said, "Do you want to sit here?"

Xie Hui chuckled softly, "You don't understand, the food here is delicious."

Ye Xunqing was speechless. How could he describe the greedy prince?

Xie Lingyin and Jiang Ruisheng arrived late with Lucao. Lucao's grandmother did not come. The old lady said she was tired and wanted to rest early.

Xie Lingyin planned to bring some food back for her to eat tomorrow morning.

"Nian Gui, why are you sitting here?" Xie Lingyin saw Xie Lingyin as soon as she entered the room. "Aren't you blocking the way by sitting here?"

Ye Xunqing and his family's room was not very big to begin with. A bed, a cabinet, and a chaise longue had already filled the room to the brim.

Xie Hui was sitting next to the door. He was a strong man, and when he squeezed his body there, he almost blocked half of the door.

"Okay, then I'll change my position." Xie Hui moved to the right.

Xie Lingyin and Jiang Ruisheng sat down to eat. It was not their first time to eat at Feng's house. They always sat in the same seat, so they didn't need anyone to arrange it for them.

"The soup is here, be careful, it's hot." Li Mei'er came over with a clay pot. "Children, sit up there. Leave this side for the adults to serve."

She put the pot down and didn't rush to remove the lid to keep it warm.

When everyone was present, Ye Xunqing announced that dinner was ready.

Xie Hui was the first to take action. He had long set his eyes on the big bone, thinking that the meat on the bone was the most delicious.

But he was a prince, and people were watching his food, clothing, housing and transportation. If he wanted to take a big bite, people would note it and accuse him of being ignorant of etiquette.

Anyway, no one here knows that he is the prince, and the people who are secretly watching him are his people, so there is no need to worry about it.

"Oh, these big bones are still so delicious to chew." Xie Hui missed the days when he chewed bones when he was young. At that time, his grandmother was still alive, and she would stew big bones for him when he was hungry.

But his grandmother and his parents couldn't get along and they often quarreled.

Grandma thought that there was something wrong with their way of education, and as an elderly person, she shouldn't interfere in the child's education.

His grandmother took care of him for a few years and then returned to her hometown. Later, his grandmother passed away, and Xie Hui never had the chance to eat it again.

Ye Xunqing was very disgusted. As a cultured scholar, Ye Xunqing always ate elegantly no matter when.

"No, your family is short of food for you?" Ye Xunqing asked puzzledly, "Can you please stop snatching?"

"You don't understand at all. It's painful to be watched while eating." Xie Hui hated having so many people staring at him. "Once I wanted to eat spare ribs, but the people in the mansion said that bones were for the lowest beggars and I couldn't eat them."

Feng Jingheng, who was gnawing on a pig's trotter: "..." He felt a little offended.

"Indeed, the mansion has its own rules. Everything you say and do, eat and dress, is governed by rules." Xie Lingyin spoke up for Xie Hui. "You've worked so hard over the years. It must be hard for you to be trapped in that huge cage, right?"

Xie Hui was almost crying. He was indeed his biological father, as he understood his pain so quickly.

"Yes, I don't want to stay here at all. I was forced to study when I was young, and when I grew up, I was forced to be someone I didn't like. It was all very painful."

The most important thing is that there is no internet, nothing at all. There are holes in the books, and he couldn't stand it anymore.

If a person stays in a backward place for twenty years and no one understands his feelings, he will go crazy.

He finally understood why Yu Boya broke his string instrument, because there would be no one who shared the same ideals as him.

If Xie Hui hadn't had a strong mental endurance, he would have committed suicide due to depression long ago.

"Brother, I beg you, I will pay for your whole family to be taken away, just come back to Pingzhou City with me!" Xie Hui really wanted Ye Xunqing and the others to go with him.

In the whole world, only Ye Xunqing and Feng Jingheng knew his identity, and he could only confide in them.

But this sounds very strange to others. What? Do you want to steal someone else's wife in front of her husband?

"Ahem." Ye Xunqing coughed and reminded: "Brother Xie, listen to what you said. Is there any ambiguity?"

Xie Hui realized he had spoken out of turn and apologized, "I'm sorry, I was just a little emotional. Brother Jingheng, don't worry, I have absolutely no intention of stealing your wife. I already have a wife."

Feng Jingheng did not react much. He believed Ye Xunqing very much. After all, Ye Xunqing told him such an important thing. Did he have any reason not to believe Ye Xunqing?

As for Xie Hui, Feng Jingheng didn't take him seriously at all. Apart from being rich and powerful, there was nothing attractive about this man.

Ah Qing wouldn't like him because he's older and not as handsome as her.

"Let's not continue this topic. Hurry up and eat. How can you not fill your mouth with so much food?" Ye Xunqing was speechless.

Xie Hui made an "OK" gesture and continued to gnaw on the big bone.

Ye Xunqing picked up a piece of stewed ham and gave it to Feng Jingheng, saying, "This is delicious, try it."

Feng Jingheng opened his mouth and ate it. "It's very delicious. Ah Qing's cooking skills are really good."

Ye Xunqing said proudly: "Of course, there is no dish that I can't cook."

Xie Hui watched them show their affection and thought of his wife again.

Hey, Huaixin never picks food for me.

He now wants to retire as soon as possible and pass his throne to Xie Zhixing, so that he and Huaixin can go traveling.

At that time, we have to trick these two into going with them, so that we can have delicious food every day.

After breakfast, everyone went home to rest.

Xie Lingyin mentioned the idea of ​​treating a dinner to a meal to Ye Xunqing again, and Ye Xunqing agreed. He asked them to arrange people as soon as possible, and the banquet was scheduled for three days later.
