When Yu Lili finished cooking the first dish and covered it, Qiao Ziqing returned with the fruits.
Qiao Ziqing was washing the fruits at the back, and Yu Lili was cooking the soup. Neither of them spoke.
The atmosphere wasn't awkward or tense, which was beyond Yu Lili's expectations.
When the dishes were ready, Yu Lili brought them out and called out, "Auntie, can you ask Uncle to come out for dinner? I'll bring Ou Ming out."
Qiao Ziqing didn't respond or make a sound. She just sat on the sofa.
Yu Lili knew that Qiao Ziqing had a problem with her, so she didn't wait for her response and went into the room.
When Ou Ming heard the sound, he knew that she was back. He asked, "How is it?"
"It's time to eat. Let's go."
"Did you make it?" Ou Ming could hear the nervousness in his voice. His uninjured hand was holding Yu Lili. His palm was sweating.
Yu Lili smiled and gently patted his hand to comfort him. "Yes," she replied. "Yes."
"Did my mother say anything?"
"She said that if I could do it, she would do it for me. She went to buy the fruits."
When he heard that, Ou Ming's tense mood immediately relaxed.
With a chuckle, he lowered his voice and said, "My mother is used to living a carefree life. She hates cooking. If it weren't for the holidays and the servants going home early, she probably wouldn't cook."
More importantly, Qiao Ziqing's cooking was terrible.
But, Ou Ming couldn't reveal his mother's secret.
"I see," Ou Ming said.
It was no wonder that Qiao Ziqing didn't stand on ceremony and let Yu Lili take over.
But, this was also an opening for her to change Qiao Ziqing's opinion of her.
She had to do this more often in the future.
She led Ou Ming to the dining room. Ou Huojin and Qiao Ziqing were already seated. When he saw them, Ou Huojin said, "You're here."
"Yeah." Yu Lili responded and pulled out the stool opposite Qiao Ziqing. After Ou Ming sat down, she went to wash her hands and took a wet napkin to wipe his hands.
It was a small detail that Qiao Ziqing and Ou Huojin noticed.
The couple picked up their chopsticks almost at the same time. Ou Huojin said, "Let's eat. It's a little late today, so don't eat too much. We'll take a walk later before going back to the room."
Of course, she was referring to Ou Ming.
Yu Lili nodded her head naturally. She didn't think there was anything wrong with it and replied, "OK."
Qiao Ziqing poured a bowl of soup for Ou Ming and then lowered her head to eat.
Ou Ming's left hand was injured, but his right hand could still hold things by itself.
Yu Lili placed the bowl of soup in his hand and whispered, "Be careful. It's a little hot. Don't spill it."
"Mmm." Ou Ming finished the soup in a few gulps. "Did you make eggplant? I want to eat eggplant. "
"Alright."
Qiao Ziqing took a bite of food and subconsciously looked at Ou Huojin.
Qiao Ziqing noticed that her husband looked equally surprised, so she lowered her head.
I didn't expect it to taste so good!
Compared to what she did … Hmm, it was still a little lacking.
Yu Lili didn't notice the subtle changes in their expressions. She was too embarrassed to take the food and didn't dare speak. Even when she spoke to Ou Ming, she kept her voice low.
Would such a wealthy family be very cautious about the rules of not talking during meals or sleeping?
