C238 Happy Days(12) (1/2)
For a long time, Gu Qing had been considering if she should ask Xiao Mo to move the old man home.
During dinner that night, Gu Qing used her chopsticks to pick at the food on the plate. However, for some reason, even if Sorrowless invited the world's top chef to help her cook, she couldn't eat much. She had no appetite at all.
Xiao Mo sat across from Gu Qing. Seeing that she didn't eat, he just kept picking his food, turning the dishes on his plate over and over. He just didn't know what she chose from within.
”Wife, have some meat!” Sorrowless picked up a piece of Red Braised Meat and placed it into Gu Qing's bowl.
Gu Qing stared at the Red Braised Meat and struggled for a long time before she finally raised her head pitifully, ”I don't want to eat it!”
”Then what do you want to eat? I'll help you pick out a table full of dishes! ” Xiao Mo used his chopsticks and pointed at the table. In the past half month, she had become more and more picky with her food. It had gone from the simplest dishes to one soup, and now there were twenty dishes and five soups.
Xiao Ning silently agreed. The ancient emperors probably wouldn't even need this many dishes in one night. It was extravagant of him to eat twenty-five dishes with her. Now, it was different from the ancient times. The Emperor could redistribute the food that he could not finish to the harem and palace maids. It was impossible for him to leave the rest of the food for the servants to eat, right?
Gu Qing wrinkled her small nose as she continued scanning the table. After scanning for a long time, she still couldn't find anything to eat. Seeing her blank expression, Xiao Mo's handsome face slowly darkened.
The maid who served them meals at the side glanced at Xiao Mo's expression. They were all sweating profusely, their hearts trembling in fear. They were afraid that Xiao Mo would be angered, so they decided to vent their anger on them.
It had to be known that this wasn't the first time something like this had happened. Every time Gu Qing couldn't eat anymore, he would push the blame onto them.
Gu Qing saw the long face of Xiao Mo Jun and furrowed her brows. She put down his chopsticks and was about to speak when he heard his voice.
”Young Master, don't blame the Young Mistress for this. When a woman is pregnant for half a month to three months, a bad feeling will appear. Almost all pregnant women have no appetite to eat during this period of time.” Mother Li brought a cup of pickled vegetable soup from the kitchen and placed it in front of Gu Qing. There were a few small meatballs inside.
She picked up the spoon and scooped up a spoonful of soup. Just as she was about to put it into her mouth, she felt a scorching gaze on her, following which, she stopped moving.
Since the beginning of the meal, Gu Qing had eaten a few mouthfuls of rice. Seeing that she had an appetite for soup, his whole heart was in her throat.
However, when Gu Qing suddenly looked at him and then put the spoon down, he frowned and asked in confusion, ”Why aren't you drinking anymore?”
Gu Qing pursed her lips, then said in a spoiled manner, ”Come over and feed me!”
Xiao Mo suddenly stood up and walked to Gu Qing's side, but when the maids saw him, they immediately went to bring his chair over. Xiao Mo sat down, picked up the soup, scooped a spoonful and blew on his lips: ”Wife, open your mouth!”
Gu Qing grinned and obediently opened her mouth to drink the soup.
Mrs Li had put a lot of pickled vegetables in the soup, so the soup was sour and not greasy. Drinking it made her stomach feel very comfortable.
”Is it good?” Xiao Mo couldn't help but ask Gu Qing while laughing.
”Delicious!” Gu Qing grinned and opened her mouth to signal Xiao Mo to feed her again.
Sorrowless directly scooped meat balls into her mouth with a spoon and fed her, the greedy little cat, no, the greedy little cat that hadn't had any appetite lately. He said, ”If you like it, I'll get Mother Li to make it for you everyday!”
