Transmigrated into a seven-year-old child, my fate is in my own hands, not in the heavens.
Chapter 591 This young mistress has quite a big appetite.
While An Ye was toasting everyone, he was thinking about how Zhao Di hadn't eaten yet, and quickly asked the nanny to bring her some food.
At this moment, Zhao Di had already lifted her red veil and was looking around the room, gazing at her own bedroom.
The mosquito net, pillows, and sheets on the bed were all bright red, creating a festive atmosphere.
Dragon and phoenix candles were lit in the room, and a round table of sandalwood was placed in the middle, on which many things were placed. The most eye-catching thing was that two chicken legs were stuck on chopsticks and placed on the left and right sides respectively.
In the middle, there were two pieces of brown sugar wrapped in large red "double happiness" characters, two eggs wrapped in red paper, and scissors and a ruler wrapped in red paper on the table.
There was also a scale beam, I don’t know what it symbolizes. Besides these, there were some things that looked like leaves.
Having been busy since early morning, Zhao Di was starving, her stomach rumbling. She was drooling over the two fragrant chicken legs on the table.
It sounds really lively outside, and I can vaguely smell the aroma of food wafting in.
Thinking of the people outside enjoying delicious food while she was starving, Zhao Di couldn't bear it!
Seeing the chicken leg on the table, Zhao Di couldn't resist any longer. She picked it up and sniffed it.
Mmm~ It smells so good!
Smelling the delicious chicken leg, Zhao Di really couldn't resist taking a bite, but reason prevailed over hunger, and Zhao Di reluctantly put the chicken leg back.
"Gulu gulu..."
Zhao Di's stomach rumbled at an inopportune moment, and she picked up the chicken leg again.
Looking at the huge chicken leg, Zhao Di thought to herself, "Such a big chicken leg, I should be able to take a bite or two without anyone noticing."
Thinking of this, Zhao Di opened her mouth wide and took a bite.
Mmm, after taking one bite, Zhao Di was so excited she almost cried. This fragrant chicken leg was just too delicious.
The chicken leg was firm and savory, with a lingering fragrance after each bite. Before she knew it, Zhao Di couldn't resist taking a couple more bites.
Just then, hearing the door open, Zhao Di hurriedly put the chicken leg back on the table and wiped her greasy hands on the tablecloth.
Just as Zhao Di, flustered and disorganized, returned to bed and was about to cover her head with the red veil, Liu Mama pushed open the door and came in carrying food.
Upon seeing the bride lift her red veil, Granny Liu was immediately shocked: "Oh dear, my young mistress, why did you lift your veil? Quickly put it back on!"
Granny Liu placed the food on the table and quickly came over to help Zhaodi put the red veil on her head.
She kept muttering, "This red veil can't be taken off by herself; the groom has to lift it up with a scale rod. That's called 'satisfying one's wishes.'"
"Didn't that matchmaker tell you? You can't lift this up yourself, it'll bring bad luck. Honestly, I'll have to give her a piece of my mind and dock her pay!"
Zhao Di, afraid that Granny Liu would blame the matchmaker, quickly said, "Granny, you've misunderstood her. She told me about it, but I was bored sitting alone, and I was also hungry, so... so..."
Zhao Di spoke softer and softer, hiding her hands behind her back as she spoke.
The more Granny Liu listened, the more uneasy she felt. Why did the room smell so good? Then she saw Zhao Di's hand hidden behind her back. Granny Liu's temples throbbed, and she turned around sharply to look at the table.
What I saw shocked me. The huge chicken leg had been gnawed down to just a bone.
Granny Liu slapped her thigh and exclaimed, "Oh dear, my dear lady, why did you eat this chicken leg? It's meant to sit for three days! It's all my fault for not telling you beforehand."
"Young master was worried you were hungry, so he asked this old servant to bring in the food. I never expected you to eat this chicken leg."
As Liu Mama brought in the food, Zhao Di sniffed the air and, well, it really did smell delicious.
"Okay, I'll eat first!"
Zhao Di didn't care about anything else this time, and quickly pulled her veil aside, which startled Liu Mama so much that she quickly put her veil back on.
"Young mistress, you can eat this food, but you can't lift the veil. Let me help you sit down and eat."
"Young Madam, please continue eating. I've replaced this chicken leg. But remember, you can't eat this new chicken leg. It has to be kept in the bridal chamber for three days, otherwise it's bad luck."
Zhao Di muttered, "These chicken legs will go bad after three days. What a waste! I'd rather eat them."
Granny Liu said nervously, "Young mistress, you can't say that twice. I'll go and change the chicken leg first. Please eat quickly, and don't lift the veil again."
After giving repeated instructions, Granny Liu left the room. Upon hearing the door close, Zhao Di quickly lifted her veil.
She didn't care about any of that; how could she eat with her head covered?
On the tray was a bowl of white rice, and three dishes: a bowl of braised pork, a bowl of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and a bowl of chives.
Looking at the braised pork belly with its perfect balance of fat and lean meat, Zhao Di's mouth watered. She picked up a piece and put it in her mouth. With one bite, the pork fat oozed out, and the savory flavor was delicious. Zhao Di ate five pieces in a row before she was satisfied.
Before Granny Liu returned, Zhao Di ate every last bite of the food she had brought in.
When Granny Liu returned, Zhao Di had already covered her head with a red veil and was sitting steadily in front of the bed.
Seeing that the food on the tray had been completely eaten, Granny Liu was still somewhat surprised.
The portion she brought in was quite large, and the young mistress had also eaten the chicken leg before eating the rest of the meal.
Judging from this, this young mistress has quite a large appetite.
Granny Liu glanced at the other chicken leg instinctively, and thankfully it was still there, which put her at ease.
Granny Liu wrapped the chicken leg in red paper and repeatedly instructed, "Young mistress, you must remember, you can't eat this chicken leg anymore."
"Okay, okay, I got it~" Zhao Di quickly agreed to avoid further nagging.
"Alright, young mistress, I'll be going now!" Granny Liu took the tray and left, closing the door behind her.
Thinking of the bride in the room, how could An Ye sit still? He offered a simple toast, exchanged a few pleasantries with the guests, and then made an excuse to return to his room.
Looking at the slender figure sitting on the edge of the bed, An Ye took a deep breath and steadied himself.
Hearing the door creak open, Zhao Di's heart pounded.
The newcomer didn't speak. Zhao Di, eager to see who it was, was about to lift the red veil when she remembered what Granny Liu had said and stopped.
"Don't move! Let me do it!"
It was that magnetic voice from the dark night. Zhao Di's face flushed, her hands gripped the hem of her clothes tightly, and her heart pounded.
An Ye picked up the scale on the table and carefully lifted the red veil.
In the flickering candlelight, Zhao Di's features were exquisite. Her large eyes glanced hastily at An Ye, and when their eyes met, Zhao Di quickly looked away, becoming unusually shy.
