Although Liu-shi couldn't see the meaning of Yuan Xi's middle finger, she also didn't know what Yuan Xi was muttering.
However, from Yuan Xi's expression and her woman's intuition, she could feel that she was filled with malice. She definitely did not mean well.
Just as he was about to berate Yuan Xi, he saw Yuan Xi's expression change at the speed of light, once again becoming the obedient baby in Yuan Shao's arms.
Liu-shi almost didn't breathe when she saw this. She was so angry by Yuan Xi that her lungs were about to explode.
"I've made a fool of myself in front of my parents. I'm already so old and crying.”
Yuan Xi saw that she was almost done acting and would be exposed if she continued acting, so she came out of Yuan Shao's arms and wiped away her non-existent tears as she said with a bashful face.
He looked like a harmless big boy. Coupled with his handsome appearance and the bruise on his forehead, he was extremely confusing!
"Hahaha." "No matter how old you are, you're still a child in my eyes." Yuan Shao was greatly comforted.”
"What a good child." Yuan Shao sighed and immediately said with concern,"Does your forehead still hurt? Do you want a doctor to take a look?”
"Thank you for your concern, Old Weng. It's not a big deal. It's just a small flesh wound. In the future, I will help Old Weng conquer the world.”Yuan Xi patted his chest and said.
"Haha! As expected of my son, Yuan Benchu. You have ambition!”Hearing Yuan Xi's heroic words, Yuan Shao could be considered to be overjoyed.
"Good child, you came in a hurry this morning. You must not have eaten breakfast.”As Yuan Shao spoke, he looked at the servants at the side and said angrily,"It's already noon. Why haven't you prepared lunch yet?”
Originally, Yuan Shao didn't plan to keep Yuan Xi husband and wife for lunch in the residence. He just met them and dealt with them before sending them away.
He never thought that Yuan Xi would make Yuan Shao happy. Yuan Shao's attitude naturally took a 180-degree turn.
Yuan Shao went to reprimand the servants, but he didn't notice the flash of embarrassment on Yuan Xi and Zhen Mi's faces.
How could the young couple not have eaten breakfast? They were so full in bed that they forgot the time. They were not hungry at all.
However, he could not say this out loud. If he did, all his previous efforts would be in vain.
"Ah Weng still dotes on me. Now that you mention it, I'm really a little hungry. It just so happens that I haven't eaten with Ah Weng for a long time.”
Yuan Shao was also a little melancholic when he heard this. His son was right beside him, but he had neglected it all these years. Thinking back, it had indeed been a long time since he had eaten with Yuan Xi. His home had long since become a home.
Seeing Yuan Shao once again reveal a look of nostalgia, Yuan Xi knew that his words had an effect. Now, every time Yuan Xi spoke, he had a purpose, specifically poking at Yuan Shao's heart.
Soon, with the help of the maids, a sumptuous lunch was prepared.
The four of them sat down. As it was a family banquet, they did not eat separately. Instead, they sat at a large table and ate together, just like in the future.
Yuan Xi and Zhen Mi began to put food into Yuan Shao's bowl at the same time. They were so attentive and filial that the food in Yuan Shao's bowl piled up into a small mountain.
"Good children, you guys eat too, you guys eat too!”Yuan Shao said happily.
"How can we do that? We'll eat after Old Weng and Mother finish eating.”Yuan Xi hurriedly declined.
Seeing his son so filial, Yuan Shao was even happier. He unconsciously ate a lot more food. He only felt that today's food was especially tasty and delicious.
Yuan Xi wasn't acting this time. He and Zhen Mi had eaten too much in the morning and were not hungry at all.
In the morning on the bed, they fed each other a mouthful. In the end, the two mouths ate together. It was called sweet. The cakes that the servant girl brought over made the two of them eat each other's saliva and finish them clean.
But in Yuan Shao's eyes, it was different.
The young couple had rushed over in the morning, so they definitely did not have breakfast. Moreover, they had knelt outside for so long. It was even more commendable that they could restrain their appetite and serve their parents first when it was time for lunch.
"You're all good children! It seems that this marriage was chosen correctly."
Looking at the couple, Yuan Shao was very satisfied with Zhen Mi.
Yuan Xi revealed a smile on his face. His relationship with Yuan Shao was becoming more and more harmonious. This was also something that Yuan Xi was happy to see happen.
However, when Liu-shi saw this harmonious scene, she felt that the food she ate tasted like wax. There was no taste at all, and her heart was not happy.
Seeing that the meal was over, a guard hurriedly entered the hall.
"Report ~"
"Reporting to Great General, the gentlemen have invited you over for a meeting.”
"Oh?" Yuan Shao put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hand." What happened?"”
"Reporting to Great General, it is said that Huainan has sent a letter and requires you to personally go over.”The guard answered truthfully.
The place where Yuan Xi and the others ate belonged to the scope of the Great General Manor's back residence. The strategists under Yuan Shao's tent definitely couldn't find them directly, so they could only invite Yuan Shao to the front courtyard where they worked to discuss matters.
Yuan Xi was moved when he heard this." I just happened to bump into him. No matter what, I have to participate today. If I can show my face once, perhaps Yuan Shao will take the initiative to let me participate in military and political affairs in the future."”
" The letter from Huainan. It seems like it's that fellow Yuan Shu. The prelude to Guandu is about to begin…"
As he was thinking, Yuan Xi saw Yuan Shao stand up from his seat. Yuan Xi immediately put down his bowl and chopsticks and went to help him.
"Old man, I'll help you over."
"My son is kind, but father's body is still strong! It won't be a problem to kill the enemy on horseback!" Yuan Shao waved his hand and refused.
"You don't understand. It's easy for your stomach to hurt when you walk after eating.”Yuan Xi supported Yuan Shao without any explanation.
At first, Yuan Shao thought that Yuan Xi was talking nonsense. He didn't believe it and quickly walked towards the front hall. Then, he frowned and asked,""My son, your father's stomach is indeed aching.”
Yuan Xi laughed inwardly. After eating so much and rushing to the front hall, it would be strange if his stomach didn't hurt.
"I'll help you walk slowly to digest your food. No matter what, it's not as important as your health.”
Yuan Xi supported Yuan Shao as they started to walk unsteadily. After a while, Yuan Shao felt that his stomach did not hurt anymore. Looking at Yuan Xi beside him, he could not help but feel more pleasing to the eye.
"Let's go, accompany father to see what happened.”
Yuan Xi was delighted. He had been waiting for this sentence.
