Having a Meal

Immediately, Su Jiujiu was astonished and flabbergasted. She was dumbstruck and the excitement in her heart was hard to calm down.

Plus, Su Jiujiu was certain once again that she really did cross over!

Therefore, people say that it is hard to predict the future.

Before, she was still at home watching TV and eating snacks, cuddled up and relaxed.

Now, she had transformed into a small fox and came to this period of time where she had no idea about.

While Su Jiujiu was sighing, Ye Mohan"s pitch-black eyes softly sparkled. Right after, the red lips moved.

“All rise.”

Ye Mohan opened his mouth, the voice is soft. However, in his tone, it was mixed with icy arrogance and prestige that couldn"t be denied!

Hearing this, everyone all rose respectfully in unison.

Su Jiujiu slowly snapped out of her trance, seeing that the palace people slowly stood up and stood to the side politely.

Right now, a man who could be considered quite old and known as a housekeeper from his attire rushed over to Ye Mohan.

The man held an honest appearance within his eyes, there was a brilliant gaze.

“Ye, you"re finally back!”

“Hm, Uncle [1] Zong, is everything all right within the prefecture!?”

Ye Mohan headed towards the inside of the prefecture with steady strides while asking in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Uncle Zong immediately respectfully opened his mouth.

“Ye, don"t worry. Everything is all right in the prefecture.”

“Hm, then this is good. Prepare the meal!”

Ye Mohan opened his mouth, exclaiming in a deep voice.

However, in the next moment, Ye Mohan seemed to have thought of something. The red lips moved, continuing to say.

“Wait, then prepare some fish, shrimps, and rabbit meat. I want them raw.”

Hearing Ye Mohan"s words, Uncle Zong"s old face was stunned. His face was filled with questioning.

In the next second, Uncle Zong"s glance swept across and landed on the small fox within Ye Mohan"s arms. His eyes couldn"t help but widen.

Before, Ye Mohan had been carrying Su Jiujiu in his arms. The wide sleeves had covered Su Jiujiu"s small body. Therefore, Uncle Zong didn"t notice Su Jiujiu"s existence.

Right now, after Ye Mohan"s sleeves had slid off, it revealed Su Jiujiu who was in Ye Mohan"s arms.

When Uncle Zong saw the small fox in Ye Mohan"s arms, he was shocked.

After all, since childhood, he had been serving Ye Mohan and watched him grow up. Towards Ye Mohan"s att.i.tude, he naturally understood.

This master of his since young had a gloomy and detached personality. Normally people didn"t dare to approach him.

Plus, he didn"t like these furry creatures and such.

But today, in his master"s arms, he is actually carrying…a small fox?!

Heaven ah!

Could it be that the sun today was rising from the west?!

While Uncle Zong was shocked in his heart, Ye Mohan had noticed his surprised expression. The narrow and long eyes just softly shined before exclaiming.

“Uncle Zong…”

“Oh, yes. Ye, this servant will depart to get ready!”

Meeting Ye Mohan"s deep gaze, Uncle Zong"s face was first shivering before he immediately went off to take care of the meal.

After Uncle Zong left, Su Jiujiu was carried by Ye Mohan and he walked into a huge hall.

In this hall, it was wide and bright. On the floor was the scarlet carpet which had hundred of flowers embroidered on it.

On the two sides, there was neat and tidy decorative carved wooden tables and seats. On one side of the carved cupboard, many priceless antiques were arranged on it. It revealed the luxuriousness.

The pearl curtains swayed gently and there were endless interesting objects in sight.

Right now, even though it was the scorching summertime and the scorching sun took over the sky, the heat wave was able to roast someone into a sweet potato.

However, inside the hall, it was incomparably refreshing.

A burst of refreshing cool wind was slowly emitted off from the porcelain basin on one side.

Su Jiujiu was puzzled. She looked over and realized.

No wonder it was refreshing within the hall. As it turned out, inside the huge porcelain basin, there was a huge ice cube placed within.

That ice cube endlessly emitted artic air, making the room refreshing.

Therefore people say that rich people knew how to enjoy themselves.

Plus, like the man in front of her, he was the w.a.n.gye of today. His treatment was naturally different!

While Su Jiujiu was pondering over this in her heart, Ye Mohan had slowly placed her on one side of the decorative carved wooden seat.

The man"s action was that gentle, that careful, as though he was scared of hurting her.

Looking at the man who treated her as though a treasure, Su Jiujiu couldn"t help to be stunned.

She was wondering what kind of good luck had she walked into ah?! How did she meet such a warm and gentle man in front of her?!

Sighing in her heart, there was a rustling burst of footsteps by the door.

Right after, a line of young and beautiful maids was entrusted with dishes and entered one after the other.

These maids, each one of them held a delicate and pretty look. Plus, their heights were around the same. Just one look from it, it could be told that they were selected with the utmost care.

These lovable and charming maids, just look at them, was a delightful matter!

Su Jiujiu sighed in her heart but in the next second, her gaze was drawn to the table of delicate dishes!

On the decorative carved big wooden round table, there was a couple of tens of tasty and fine dishes.

Besides exotic delicacies, shark fins, swallow"s nest, and abalones, there was also her favorite dish of sweet and sour pork chops that she loved to eat normally as well as steamed osmanthus flowers fishes, etc…

These dishes, just by looking at it, led Su Jiujiu"s saliva in her mouth to flood out.

She thought about it. Ever since she came over to this unknown time period, she hadn"t eaten anything!

Now, she was already famished.

Seeing these tasty fine dishes and the smell of it was the fragrance of cuisines that led people to drool in desire, Su Jiujiu"s stomach immediately honestly let out a rumble.

Although Su Jiujiu"s stomach grumbled very lightly, it"s just that the man seemed to have noticed still.

The man who sat by her side couldn"t help to slightly lower his head. The gaze looking towards her included a faint smile.

He seemed to have known something and the corner of the man"s mouth slightly curled up. Right after, he raised his hand and placed a dish of fish and shrimps in front of her.

She saw that the plate of fish and shrimps were very fresh. It"s just that Su Jiujiu was speechless.

Although she was a small fox right now, her taste still didn"t change at all. She liked to eat cooked food.

Right now, even if the plate of fish and shrimps seemed fresh in front of her, she still wasn"t able to eat them ah!
