Ge Bi was thin-skinned and could not withstand such teasing. She quickly pushed away the man next to her and got out of his arms. She said in a panic, "Why are you here?"
Wanyan Ping rolled her eyes at her, "Jiejie, you're really distracted. You were the one who called me over to eat."
Ge Bi finally remembered that this was indeed the case. In her panic, she had forgotten about this. She quickly called a palace maid over with a red face, "You can serve the dishes now."
These palace maids were all carefully selected by her. Not only were they skilled in martial arts, they could protect her, but they were also trustworthy and loyal subordinates. This would also prevent her from having to appear in the harem with Wanyan Rui's appearance at all times.
Very quickly, a large table of exquisite dishes was placed on the table. Wanyan Ping ran over and hugged Song Qingshu's arm, pulling him to a seat, "Brother-in-law, thanks to you, I've been able to eat such good food for two days straight."
"Lass, no one will think you're mute if you don't say a few words." Ge Bi glared at her younger sister. Although there was a hint of rebuke in her tone, she was not truly angry. Even when she saw her younger sister holding her husband's arm affectionately, she did not say anything. Now, it was just the two of them who were dependent on each other.
Song Qingshu was startled, "Two days in a row?"
Wanyan Ping grunted, "Jiejie was very happy to see you come back yesterday and specially prepared a large table of food and wine for you. Who knew that you would be taken away by that little demoness, Zhong Jie."
Song Qingshu held Ge Bi's hand apologetically, "Yesterday, I let down your good intentions."
Ge Bi's face turned red and she quickly pulled her hand back, "I didn't think it through. I knew that you were invited to the Grand Tutor's residence by Zhong Jie and most likely wouldn't come back. Yet, I still prepared so much …"
Song Qingshu's heart warmed, "You made all these dishes yourself?" He subconsciously ignored Wanyan Ping. That lass spent every day in a place like the laundry yard and looked like a little demoness. She didn't look like someone who knew how to make soup.
Ge Bi replied awkwardly, "I don't have that ability. It's all done by the imperial chef."
Wanyan Ping, who was at the side, was dissatisfied with her belittling herself. She quickly spoke for her: "Jiejie's cooking is very good. It's just that she's going to be the emperor and doesn't have much time. At the same time, it's not convenient for her to cook personally. However, she still took the time to make the soup. Here, this soup was made by her."
"Ping 'er ~" Ge Bi's face was tender. She couldn't stand her sister's flattery.
Song Qingshu couldn't help but laugh, "So it was personally cooked by Madam. Then my first sip will definitely be this soup. I must definitely taste it."
Hearing the word 'Madam' from his mouth, Ge Bi was in a trance. The scene now seemed to have returned to several years ago, when she, her husband, and her younger sister, the family of three happily gathered together for a family banquet.
"Brother-in-law, I'll scoop it for you." Wanyan Ping, who was at the side, scooped a bowl of soup for him.
"Thank you, Ping 'er," Song Qingshu didn't use a spoon and picked up the bowl to take a sip. He couldn't help but feel relaxed, "This soup is well cooked, the taste is thick but not heavy, crispy but not overbearing. The nine ingredients are all of the highest quality, and there are eighty one variations. Not only are the flavors distinct, but they're all one. It really is the highest quality of soup …"
Ge Bi finally couldn't take it anymore and scolded laughingly, "You, you're even better at bullshitting than Ping 'er ~"
Wanyan Ping, who was at the side, quickly distanced herself, "In terms of bullshitting, I can't compare to Brother-in-law. Tsk, tsk, tsk, this is a classic of flattery."
Song Qingshu smiled. This was a line from the movie 'God of Cookery'. He saw that Ge Bi's brows seemed to be filled with deep worry and offered flowers to Buddha to make her laugh. It seemed that at least the effect had been achieved.
"The ancients said that beauty is a feast for the eyes. Now that beauty is beside us and delicacies are in front of us, how can there be no wine? Come, serve the wine. "Looking at the two beautiful sisters, Song Qingshu's interest grew.
"I'm afraid today …" Wanyan Ping was about to say something when Ge Bi interrupted her, "It's rare that he's in such a good mood. Let's drink a few cups with him."
A strange expression flashed across Wanyan Ping's face, "Since jiejie isn't afraid, I naturally won't be afraid either."
While Song Qingshu noticed that the two sisters' expressions were a bit strange, he didn't take it to heart. Sisters always had some private things to say in their boudoir. As a man, it wasn't appropriate for him to ask.
The wine was quickly served. The few of them had the palace maids leave as if the three of them were already in the most perfect state. One more person would destroy the harmonious atmosphere.
As they toasted, the atmosphere of the banquet became more and more lively. The three of them told each other about the things that had happened in the time since they had been apart. Occasionally, they would reveal the lovesickness that was even more intoxicating.
Of course, it was mainly Song Qingshu who drank the most. Every time the two sisters clinked their cups with him, they would have a tacit understanding to take a sip.
Song Qingshu didn't care when he saw this. He still drank the wine in his cup in one gulp. He was a man, and it wasn't good for him to bully two girls when it came to drinking. Also, he had a good tolerance for alcohol.
But even so, after the two sisters drank a few cups of wine, their faces were still flushed red. They were even more beautiful than usual.
Song Qingshu's heart warmed when he saw this. He patted the two chairs next to him, "We are family, why are you sitting so far away? Come sit next to me." The three of them had originally sat around a small round table. The three of them formed an equilateral triangle. Song Qingshu felt that the distance was a bit distant.
Hearing his words, the two sisters' faces became even redder. They unconsciously looked at each other and then hurriedly looked away with a bit of guilt.
"We are already so familiar with each other, are you still shy?" Song Qingshu smiled. He didn't see how he moved, but he had already pulled the two sisters to his left and right to sit down.
The two girls were indeed a bit shy at first, but they had already been pulled over, so they could only acquiesce.
Seeing the two sisters' shyness when they lowered their heads, Song Qingshu's heart warmed. Would there be a chance today to complete the kind of scene that all men fantasized about?
But now was clearly not the time, so he decided to get the two sisters to drink more wine. After drinking, their mood would improve. Maybe there would be a chance …
Just like that, the three of them continued for nearly an hour. Of course, the two girls had long since lost their appetite. They just accompanied him to drink from time to time, and occasionally came together to whisper.
Because the two women were separated by Song QingShu, every time they talked, they had to pass in front of him. Smelling the unique fragrance of the two women, Song QingShu only felt waves of dizziness, it was really like he was intoxicated by the wine.
Seeing that the time was right, Song Qingshu asked tentatively, "Where will I sleep tonight?"
Ge Bi giggled, and Wanyan Ping also stared at him with a strange expression, causing Song Qingshu to feel a bit guilty. "Why do you have such strange expressions?"
