Green tea was read, the villain's family begged me to be happy
Chapter 33: 1 Dig 1 Silent
"My Lord, Madam Marquis, the Third Lady has sent food over. She asked you two to eat it while it's hot." The voice of Nanny Liu came.
The couple in the room looked at each other, and Marquis Zhongyi put the brush back on the pen holder.
"The matter of the third daughter-in-law is more important. Maybe it's another hint from the divine weapon. It won't be too late to sign after you go and see it!" he said confidently.
Cen moved her lips, as if she wanted to mock something, but finally swallowed it back.
Never mind. There’s no rush to get divorced tonight.
The door was opened and two people walked out with calm faces.
Nanny Liu was holding the food box and quietly looked at the two of them. Seeing that they were dressed neatly and in a stable condition, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it seems that there was no fight. Even if there was a quarrel, it was at most a bickering, which was still within the controllable range.
You know, in recent times, whenever the Marquis and his wife are behind closed doors, there will inevitably be a big fight.
Every time the Marquis slammed the door and left in a rage, he always left with wounds, and even his hair was messed up and his collar was untied, showing how fiercely he and Cen had fought.
Of course, Cen's clothes were also in disarray, but she didn't have any injuries, so Marquis Zhongyi was still restrained in his attack.
There was no fight this time, which must mean their relationship has eased.
"What is this food?" asked Mrs. Cen.
Nanny Liu walked to the table carrying the food box and took out the two soup bowls inside.
"It's snake soup. The Third Madam said it's very nutritious and she thinks it tastes extremely delicious, so she asked the cook to make a lot more and sent some to each courtyard."
"The Third Madam also specifically instructed the servants to send a bowl to the Fourth Master." Nanny Liu reminded.
When Cen heard the word "snake soup", she knew what Xu Wanying meant. She did it purely to piss off Jiang Chengyi.
However, Jiang Chengyi’s yard was sealed off, and he is now locked up in the east house of Shoukangyuan.
"Since Wanying instructed you, then have someone deliver it to Yi'er and watch him drink it. If he doesn't want to drink it, tell him that he can only come out of the east room after drinking it." Cen made arrangements quickly.
When Madam Liu heard this, her heart suddenly tightened.
As expected, the Marquis’s wife thinks highly of the Third Lady, but why?
Nanny Liu couldn't understand it. It was obvious that the Marquis's wife hated the Third Lady very much and thought that she was scheming and manipulative, and used her reputation to force the Third Master to marry her.
Why do you value her so much now? Even if they were arguing with the Marquis, they stopped immediately when they heard that the Third Lady had sent something.
You have to know that people are most emotional when they are quarreling. As long as the sky is not falling, other things have to be put aside and everything should be dealt with after the quarrel is over.
But the Marquis and his wife controlled their emotions in time, and what the Third Lady sent was just a bowl of soup, which was not an important matter at all.
"I haven't eaten this snake soup for a long time. It tastes good. It's really delicious." Marquis Zhongyi picked up the bowl and drank it in big gulps, not even leaving out the snake meat inside.
He ate with gusto, but Cen didn't dare to pick up his chopsticks from the bowl of soup.
It was obvious that she couldn't get over it psychologically. She was very afraid of snakes and of course she didn't dare to eat their meat.
"Why don't you eat?" Marquis Zhongyi naturally noticed her dilemma and asked deliberately.
"I couldn't eat. One year before I got married, around the Dragon Boat Festival, I went out for an outing. At the time, I was walking on the ridge of a field with two maids and we ran into a snake. Both sides were stunned. The maids around me screamed in fear, which made people even more panicked. Then we and the snake turned around and ran away at the same time."
Cen picked up a piece of snake meat and saw that it was cut into neat squares. If she looked closely, she could see the texture and pattern on the snake skin, which made her scalp tingle.
Although it happened many years ago, Cen still remembers it vividly. It was obvious that he was scared to death at the time and it left him with a psychological trauma.
When Marquis Zhongyi heard her say this, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Oh, what a pity I'm not here, or I would have laughed at you. It's just a long worm as thick as a finger, but you're scared to death today. Besides, that beast is timid, it's more afraid of you, what are you afraid of!"
Cen rolled her eyes at him, obviously feeling that there was nothing to talk to such a rough man like him.
She hesitated for a long time, but finally picked up the bowl and took a sip of soup.
The cook’s cooking skills are indeed good. The soup base is delicious, and the warm feeling flows down the throat into the stomach.
However, due to psychological effects, Cen still felt very uncomfortable, and his eyelids drooped as if he was about to vomit.
"Hey, hey, hey, if you can't eat, don't eat."
Marquis Zhongyi widened his eyes and hurried to stop him.
"How can I not eat since my third daughter-in-law is so filial!" Mrs. Cen refused.
In fact, it’s not that I really care about her filial piety, but now Xu Wanying’s affairs have been placed at the most important level, and everything she says must be satisfied.
As long as Xu Wanying is in a good mood, the system will reveal more information in the future, and she will know the future of the Loyalty Marquis Mansion. Avoiding disasters and rising to prominence are just around the corner.
Seeing that she was eating reluctantly, Marquis Zhongyi could not help but sigh and told her about what happened in the military camp.
"Before, when I was marching in the wild, those bastards in the capital were greedy and took away a lot of the soldiers' rations. The food and grass were insufficient, and there was really no oil or water, so a group of us soldiers went to the wilderness to find food. We caught and ate anything that flew in the sky or swam in the water, as long as it had a little meat on it, even insects were no exception."
"There are two kinds of bugs. There are soft bugs that are full of flesh, and there are hard bugs with a lot of shells. But no matter which kind you brush a little oil on and roast over fire, they taste delicious."
When talking about marching and fighting, Marquis Zhongyi became more talkative.
Cen's hair stood on end when she heard this, and she immediately said, "Alright, alright, stop talking. I'm about to vomit after hearing this."
Perhaps because of the contrast with the insects, the snake soup in front of him was not so difficult to swallow. Cen even picked up two pieces of snake meat and ate them without feeling like vomiting.
After they finished their snake soup, when the maid came over to clean up the bowls, Cen suddenly called her.
“Is there something at the bottom of the bowl?”
The little maid stopped immediately, turned the bowl over, and immediately saw a piece of paper stuck to the bottom of the bowl.
Cen took it and unfolded it, and saw a line of crooked words written inside: There is a treasure in the garden of Jiang Chengyi's yard, go dig, and you will find one without making a sound.
She handed the note to the Marquis of Loyalty. After squinting his eyes and trying to decipher it, he said, "Who wrote this? It's uglier than my handwriting."
"What's in Yige'er's garden? Could it be a mountain of gold and silver buried there?" After seeing the treasure, he immediately smiled and couldn't help but ask happily. He thought that the magic artifact had come to deliver money to their mansion.
Cen was speechless. She had originally planned to tell Marquis Zhongyi about this as soon as he came back, but due to his bad attitude, the two of them were so focused on arguing that they forgot about Jiang Chengyi's stupid behavior for a while.
Now that the third daughter-in-law has written a note to complain, it is obvious that Jiang Chengyi's throwing of the snake into Qingxi Pavilion today directly angered Xu Wanying, causing her to resort to this method of revenge.
"Yi'er's yard has been sealed off. My Lord, take him to dig. Don't let the news leak out. And he doesn't know that the third daughter-in-law has the magic weapon. Don't tell him for now." Cen still didn't say what was inside. She thought it would be better to let Marquis Zhongyi dig it out and take a look at it himself.
"Hehe, ma'am, you should have told me this good news earlier." He rubbed his hands and couldn't help laughing.
Cen waved her hands, unwilling to say another word to this fool.
