PWDLAW Chapter 704: Praise

 Chapter 704: Praise

Ye Muyu believed him for the time being, quickly got up and dressed and applied makeup in a hurry.

After finishing, she didn't care about the tag-along behind her, quickly went into the kitchen to have breakfast.

They would be entertaining guests soon, and she didn't know how long it would take, so she didn't want to starve.

 Hu Shi was just steeping several pots of tea and the kitchen was filled with the rich aroma of tea.

"Madam, are you hungry? There's freshly steamed chrysanthemum cakes, milk cakes, and soup dumplings in the pot. The breakfast dishes are still warm. What would madam like to eat?" 

Ye Muyu's stomach was rumbling now. She thought for a moment, "The porridge that was cooked in the morning? Give me a bowl of porridge, a basket of soup dumplings, and skip the pastries."

Pastries were fine for filling the stomach normally, but when truly hungry, it was more comfortable to eat regular dishes.

"Madam, there are also side dishes, all your favorite green vegetables." There were still vegetables to eat now, but if it was later, there would only be cabbage and radish left.

Ye Muyu nodded repeatedly. Eating too many soup dumplings could make one feel sick. After all, the meat inside was very solid. Green vegetables would open up the appetite and clear the stomach, which was a good combination.

Hu Shi saw this and quickly brought out the food for her.

Ye Muyu carried a bowl of porridge and a plate of side dishes out, planning to sit in the hall and eat slowly. There were about two quarters of an hour before the guests would arrive, so she still had time to enjoy her breakfast comfortably.

As she walked out of the kitchen, she ran into Xiang Linger carrying a bundle of firewood inside. She was slightly surprised. "Linger, what are you doing?"

"Sister-in-law." Xiang Linger saw her and smiled brightly. "I'm carrying firewood in. The firewood in Sister-in-law's kitchen is all good. I can't bear to use it, so I brought in some firewood. Putting a few sticks in the stove can also burn very well."

...."It's okay. The firewood at home is meant to be burned. You don't have to do these chores." Ye Muyu reached out and brushed away the sweat-dampened hair from her ear, then called Zhang Shu over to carry the firewood in.

Hu Shi was making grass jelly. When she saw Xiang Linger, she smiled and said, "Madam, you don't know, Miss Linger helped with chores as soon as she got up in the morning. I couldn't stop her."

"Miss Linger is very sensible and doesn't mind getting dirty. She does any kind of work."  Hu Shi praised.

Xiang Linger blushed, her big eyes shining with shyness. "Sister-in-law, I'm used to doing these chores. As long as it doesn't affect Auntie, it's fine."

"You, don't be so polite. Go and fetch some water to wash your face in the room and then apply the ointment I gave you. Change into the clothes I gave you last night. I'll come to do your makeup later." Ye Muyu said with a smile.

At this moment, Ziluo came over. She smiled and said, "Ziluo, take your cousin-in-law inside to change clothes and apply ointment."

"Mom, okay." Chu Ziluo was a little excited. She pulled Xiang Linger and ran into the room.

Hu Shi saw this and smiled, "Madam, you go and eat. I'll help."

With that, she quickly carried the buns into the hall and then brought a basin of hot water to the west wing.

Ye Muyu sat comfortably at the dining table eating buns.

The hall was not prepared to entertain guests, after all, everyone's status was similar and the house wasn't as bright as the courtyard. Sitting together in the courtyard, there was no fear of being perceived as inadequate.

Ye Muyu picked up a soup dumpling and took a light bite. There was shrimp inside, very fresh and full of soup. The dumpling skin was thin and not too big, so it was convenient to eat one at a time.

Ye Muyu finished a basket of eight soup dumplings in no time, feeling a bit unsatisfied, but she knew when to stop. She didn't ask for more and slowly drank her porridge, eating it with the green vegetables.
