The little drama queen is both capricious and naughty, but her military officer husband insists on s

After Great-Grandma finished speaking, Lu Mingrui interjected:

"Grandma, I have something I want to say to Yanxun alone. Can I talk to him first? After we're done talking, you can give him a good talking to."

After hearing this, Great-Grandma did not immediately express her opinion, but instead asked Jiang Zao for her opinion: "Little Zao, what do you think?"

Jiang Zao naturally had no objections and obediently nodded: "Okay."

Great-Grandma smiled with satisfaction: "Our little Zao'er is so sensible."

"..."

Jiangzao gave a dry laugh.

Is this what it means to be sensible?

Great-grandmother had very low expectations of her.

“Alright, you and your son can go and chat first,” Great-Grandma said. “But try to keep it brief and don’t keep Little Zao’er waiting too long.”

Jiang Zao quickly said, "Great-Grandma, I'm not in a hurry."

Her great-grandmother gave her a comforting look: "It's alright, your great-grandmother was worried for you."

"You're the boss in this house today. If anyone dares to say a word against you, I'll break their legs!" Great-Grandma said again.

Lu Yanting swallowed hard and quietly moved back to Lu Yanwei's side.

She said in a very soft voice, "Oh, Great-Grandma is so fierce!"

Fortunately, she didn't say anything targeting Jiang Zao today, otherwise, if she had just said something wrong, she might have been the one with her legs broken.

Lu Yanwei remained silent, quietly becoming a transparent person with only ears.

"Yanxun, come with me to the study."

Lu Mingrui glanced at Lu Yanxun, then turned and walked towards the study.

Before letting go of Jiang Zao, Lu Yanxun said, "I'll go first and be back soon."

"Mmm," Jiang Zao replied obediently.

But in my heart I was thinking, why are you telling me when you're coming back?

Is it any of my business?

The Lu father and son entered the small study on the first floor one after the other.

Jiang Zao watched Lu Yanxun's figure disappear through the study door, and then saw the study door close.

Great-grandmother seemed to see through what Jiang Zao was thinking and said with a smile, "Don't worry, his father won't hit him without my permission."

"However, even if he gets beaten, don't feel sorry for him. He bullied you today, and you can't forgive him so quickly just because he apologized. Men have to pay the price for their mistakes. We women can't be too soft-hearted, or we'll suffer in the future."

Great-grandmother instructed Jiang Zao earnestly.

“Great-Grandma, I wasn’t worried about him, nor did I feel sorry for him,” Jiang Zao explained softly, her tone not very natural.

She only glanced at it a couple of times out of curiosity.

Where exactly does she seem worried about Lu Yanxun or feel sorry for him?

Great-grandmother smiled kindly and said, "Great-grandmother can see that you genuinely like Xiao Xun."

Jiangzao: "..."

No, no, no, Great-Grandma, you're mistaken. I don't like him, not at all.

Great-Grandma mistook Jiang Zao's silence for embarrassment and continued with a smile, "Actually, Great-Grandma can also see that Xiao Xun has feelings for you too."

Jiangzao: "..."

No, no, no, Great-Grandma, you're mistaken again. Lu Yanxun doesn't care about me at all.

“Great-grandmother, my brother said he didn’t correspond with Sister Xiaoyue or have an affair. He shouldn’t be lying to his wife. I’ve always believed him.”

Lu Yanting fawned over her great-grandmother and said very obsequiously.

Jiang Zao and Lu Yanwei both showed surprised expressions.

Jiang Zao looked at Lu Yanting speechlessly: Didn't you say you didn't believe it?

Lu Yanwei's eyes were filled with disdain: when it comes to being a fence-sitter, it has to be her little sister Lu Yanting.

Lu Yanting didn't care how others looked at her.

As long as you don't expose her, it's fine.

She believed that no one present would expose her.

"Really? Did Xiao Xun say that himself?" Great-Grandma asked in surprise.

"Yes, yes, yes, my brother said it to my sister-in-law. My sister and I were there at the time, and we both heard it, right, sister?"

Lu Yanting asked her sister to testify.

Lu Yanwei, who was called on, nodded with a stiff upper lip: "Yes, it was my brother who said it himself."

After a moment of contemplation, Great-Grandma said, "Xiao Xun has never liked to lie. Since he said that, it probably isn't true. When Xiao Xun comes out later, I'll ask him what really happened."

Jiang Zao was also curious about how Lu Yanxun had the confidence to say such things.

He might not have had an affair, but Jiang Zao believes that to some extent.

But she didn't believe him when he said he hadn't been corresponding with Su Xinyue.

Given the deep affection between him and Su Xinyue, how could he possibly resist writing to her?

But she wasn't in a hurry; her great-grandmother would find out soon enough.

With Jiang Zao back safely, Su Xiufen finally felt like cooking.

To get dinner ready quickly, she called her two daughters to come into the kitchen and help.

Only Jiang Zao and her great-grandmother remained in the living room.

At first, Jiang Zao was still able to listen to her great-grandmother, but she was hungry and sleepy, and soon she couldn't hold on any longer and leaned against the sofa, dozing off.

Great-grandmother felt heartbroken seeing Jiang Zao's tired face.

He couldn't help but curse his great-grandson in his heart.

She thought to herself that if that brat didn't give Xiaozao a reasonable explanation, she would definitely break his legs.

Not only will they beat up his great-grandson Lu Yanxun, but they will also beat up his eldest grandson Lu Mingrui.

Look at the fine son he raised!

The great-grandmother made her decision and silently waited for the Lu family father and son to finish their conversation.

It's unclear what the father and son said, but they didn't emerge from the small study until Su Xiufen and her two daughters brought the food to the table.

Jiang Zao is already asleep.

Great-grandmother didn't call her, but quietly instructed Lu Yanxun to carry the person back to the room to sleep.

Although Jiang Zao was asleep, she kept thinking about the correspondence between Lu Yanxun and Su Xinyue.

A familiar scent wafted over, and Jiang Zao vaguely realized that Lu Yanxun had arrived.

She struggled to open her eyelids and, sure enough, saw Lu Yanxun's face so close to hers.

Just as Lu Yanxun was about to pick up Jiang Zao, he saw that she had woken up.

Lu Yanxun paused, "I'll carry you back to your room to sleep."

"No," Jiang Zao shook her head vigorously, "I won't sleep."

She hadn't heard Lu Yanxun's explanation yet, so she couldn't sleep.

"Listen to me, you're tired today." Lu Yanxun's voice was soft and gentle.

It's almost like patiently coaxing someone.

Jiang Zao felt a strong urge to try it.

But reason told her she couldn't sleep!

She still had some melon left to eat!

"I……"

Jiang Zao wanted to find an excuse to secretly watch the drama unfold.

Just then, her stomach growled.

Gurgling.

Jiang Zao thought to herself, her stomach rumbling just in time.

Now there's no need for an excuse.

Lu Yanxun heard it too, and glanced at her stomach: "Hungry?"

"Ah."

She was starving, and after waking up from her nap, she almost forgot that she was hungry.

Lu Yanting overheard their conversation.

She quickly and happily exclaimed, "Sister-in-law, are you hungry? Mom specially made shredded pork porridge for you!"

Lu Yanting quickly ladled out a large bowl of shredded pork congee, placed a towel under the bowl, and carried it over.

“The chair is too hard, it’s uncomfortable for you to sit on it. Why don’t you eat on the sofa?” Lu Yanting handed the bowl to her brother.

"Brother, this bowl is too big. My sister-in-law has small hands and can't hold it. You feed her."

After saying that, he quickly went to the dining table, grabbed a spoon, and handed it to Lu Yanxun.

Lu Yanting's series of movements were fluid and graceful.

She not only felt good about herself, but also received praise from her great-grandmother.

Great-Grandma gave Lu Yanting an approving look: "Our Tingting has grown up and is becoming more and more sensible."

Lu Yanting covered her mouth and chuckled, "I'm going to be an aunt soon!"

What's the big deal about serving a bowl of porridge?

As long as Jiang Zao doesn't cause trouble and eats properly, she'll even bring her water to wash her feet.

Lu Yanting then helped her great-grandmother up, saying, "Great-grandmother, please come and eat too."

"Okay." Great-Grandma smiled broadly. "Xiao Xun, you eat with Xiao Zao'er on the sofa. We'll have a good chat after dinner."

"Mm," Lu Yanxun replied.

He sat down next to Jiang Zao with a bowl of porridge in his hand and stirred the steaming porridge with a spoon.

Then he scooped up a spoonful of porridge and held it to Jiangzao's lips.

"It's a little hot, blow on it before you eat it," Lu Yanxun said.

Ginger and jujubes are quite embarrassed.

She didn't blow on it, but instead took the spoon: "I'll eat it myself."

Lu Yanxun dodged Jiang Zao's hand, preventing her from touching the spoon: "I'll feed you."

At the dining table, a group of people were secretly watching what was happening between Lu Yanxun and Jiang Zao.

Only Lu Yanting spoke her mind: "You're feeding them, why are you making them blow on it themselves?"

Lu Yanxun's hand froze in mid-air for a moment.

Jiang Zao could tell that he was in a difficult and embarrassed position.

She deeply understood the source of his embarrassment and awkwardness.

So, to avoid making the atmosphere more awkward, Jiang Zao quickly blew on the porridge on the spoon twice and ate it.

hot!

If you don't blow enough, the porridge will be too hot.

Jiangzao frowned as he was burned.

"Brother! Sister-in-law got burned!" Lu Yanting saw it and immediately shouted.

Jiangzao swallowed the porridge in one gulp, feeling a burning, spicy sensation on the tip of her tongue.

I don't know if it got blisters from the burn.

"I'll eat it myself," Jiang Zao insisted again.

Otherwise, she was afraid that if she didn't finish the bowl of porridge, her throat would be burned and blistered.

Lu Yanxun frowned slightly and scooped up another spoonful of porridge without saying a word.

This time, he didn't let Jiang Zao blow on it, but instead brought it to his own lips and blew on it.

Jiang Zao opened her eyes slightly wider in confusion.

Is this person going to share a bowl of porridge with her?

Are you still using the same spoon?

She stared intently at Lu Yanxun's every move.

The other person carefully blew on the food, but didn't eat it themselves.

Instead, it was delivered to her.

Huh? Giving her food?

Jiang Zao was shocked.

Lu Yanxun blew on her porridge?

"Brother, you'd better blow on it for your wife earlier, then she wouldn't have gotten burned. You're so inconsiderate. Humph, I'll never date a guy like you who's so inconsiderate."

Su Xiufen smacked Lu Yanting's hand hard with her chopsticks: "How old are you! What are you talking about, finding a boyfriend!"

"I already said it's in the future," Lu Yanting muttered softly.

Lu Mingrui frowned seriously. "Let's eat."

Lu Mingrui is a man of his word. Although he rarely hits his children and has never hit his two daughters, his strictness still makes the two sisters very wary.

Lu Yanting didn't dare to speak, and took a bite of the steamed bun.

Jiang Zao didn't dare to speak anymore. She didn't have time to complain and opened her mouth to eat the porridge that Lu Yanxun had blown on for her.

Lu Yanxun ate the leftover fried egg she had eaten, and she ate the porridge that Lu Yanxun had blown on.

That evens things out.

No one needs to look down on anyone else.

Once you've had the first bite, the second bite seems less difficult to accept.

Then came the third bite, the fourth bite...

Lu Yanxun's movements as he blew on the porridge became more and more natural, and Jiang Zao stopped having so many random thoughts while eating the porridge.

However, the bowl of porridge was too much, and I could only eat a little over half of the ginger and jujubes before I couldn't eat anymore.

"full."

Jiang Zao refused the spoon that Lu Yanxun offered her and wouldn't eat it.

"Take another bite," Lu Yanxun coaxed gently.

I managed to eat the ginger and jujubes.

The moment he swallowed the porridge, Lu Yanxun brought him another spoonful.

"I can't eat anymore," Jiang Zao shook her head in protest.

"Take one last bite." Lu Yanxun's tone softened even more.

Jiang Zao frowned. "I'm full."

"This is really the last bite," Lu Yanxun coaxed in a low voice.

For some reason, Jiang Zao was inexplicably drawn to his tactics.

Even though she was already full, she still inexplicably opened her mouth and bit the spoon.

But this was truly the last bite she could accept.

"I'm not eating anymore," Jiang Zao said, covering her mouth. "I'm too full."

Lu Yanxun then believed that Jiang Zao really couldn't eat anymore.

Lu Yanting, who had secretly opened her eyes wide and pricked up her ears to pay close attention to their area, immediately whispered in her sister's ear:

"Sis, let's make a bet. I bet brother will eat sister-in-law's leftover porridge."

"I don't gamble." Lu Yanwei ignored her younger sister.

Is this even a gamble?

Anyone who isn't blind or deaf knows there's no need to gamble.

"Let's gamble," Lu Yanting said, looking confident of victory.

At the same time, he was pleased with himself for having served himself extra porridge.

Not wanting to be bothered, Lu Yanwei agreed: "I also bet that brother will eat sister-in-law's leftover porridge."

Lu Yanting was a little speechless. "Couldn't you have bet that my brother wouldn't eat it?"

"I won't bet." Lu Yanwei took a sip of the fragrant white rice porridge. "I'm betting that my brother will eat it."

"You're so boring."

Lu Yanting retreated with little interest.

He continued to stare intently at Lu Yanxun and Jiang Zao.

Just as Lu Yanting expected, her brother really did start eating the remaining porridge in his bowl.

Contrary to Lu Yanting's expectations, Jiang Zao was still shocked.

incredible.

Unable to look directly.

Lu Yanxun actually ate her leftovers again.

Last time it was poached eggs, this time it's congee.

If eating the porridge that Lu Yanxun was praising this time was to even things out with the fried egg from last time...

But this time, Lu Yanxun ate what she left over again.

Does this mean they've fallen out again?

Jiang Zao couldn't bear to look directly at him, but her eyes honestly stole glances at Lu Yanxun as he drank his porridge.

Ah, why does this man look so good no matter what he does?

He seems to possess an innate air of nobility, and even the slightest movement of his is pleasing to the eye.

Even if it's just drinking someone else's leftover porridge.

Jiang Zao wanted to see, but was too embarrassed to make it too obvious.

I could only pretend to glance at it casually, then glance at it again.

Unfortunately, no matter how unintentional you are, if you glance at it too often, you will be noticed.

Lu Yanxun then discovered her.

"what happened?"

Lu Yanxun noticed that Jiang Zao's eyes were darting around, and she always looked away when she glanced at him, as if she had something to say.

Jiang Zao shook her head: "It's nothing, you eat quickly."

Lu Yanxun thought Jiang Zao was hungry again and wanted to eat more, but he had already eaten most of the porridge.

He then asked, "Would you like to eat anything else?"

"I don't want to think about it anymore, I'm full." Jiang Zao leaned on the back of the sofa, lying on her side.

I couldn't help but remind you, "Hurry up and eat, don't you still have things to say?"

She's waiting to hear the gossip about Lu Yanxun and Su Xinyue's correspondence.

Did they communicate with each other?

“Yes.” Great-Grandma suddenly chimed in, “There’s something else to say, Xiao Xun. Think about how you’re going to explain this later.”
