Looking at Song Yajing’s departing figure, Ning Qing stuck out her pink tongue and made a face at her back.
When a servant saw Ning Qing’s lovely appearance, she laughed and said, “Madam, let me cut the fruit.”
“No, I’m really good at it.” Ning Qing shook her head in a good mood. She cored the apple and made a hollow apple box.
Then she placed some dragon fruit with cherries and set up a beautiful rabbit platter with a layer of yogurt sprinkled on it.
“Wow,” the servant looked at her wors.h.i.+pfully. “Madam, your platter is beautiful, it’s similar to those made by five-star chefs.”
“Right? I’ve practiced it specially.” Ning Qing smiled with curved eyes. She handed the fruit platter to the servant. “You can bring this fruit platter to the tea table.”
“Madam, don’t you want to bring it out yourself?”
Ning Qing pouted her pink lips, “No, didn’t my mother ask me to stay in the kitchen all the time and not come out. I dare not disobey her. When this platter satisfies my mother and she tells me to come out, only then do I dare to come out.”
“Alright.” The servant nodded.
…
In the living room, Lu Shaoming and an uncle stood by the windowsill to talk about business. Lu Dinghua and Song Yajing sat on the sofa with their elders and chatted. The servant brought up the fruit platter and everyone’s eyes lit up. They couldn’t help but praised, “Yajing, your family has changed the cook again. This platter arrangement is a little interesting.”
Song Yajing stiffened, this was obviously Ning Qing’s masterpiece.
Just now, when Ning Qing was cutting apples in the kitchen, she had taken a look. The girl had good knife-cutting skills.
“No, this is arranged by our Madam.” The servant responded respectfully.

“Oh,” said an elder with a little interest, “how come your Madam doesn’t come out? The fruit platter is arranged so she should come out for a chat. We seldom have a chance to see her.”
“Madam said that when Madam Song has checked the fruit platter, she would only dare to come out after Madam Song is satisfied with it.”
The elders looked at Song Yajing in succession.
Song Yajing glared sideways at the servant, who was in his twenties and didn’t know anything. He didn’t know what to say or not to say.
“Haha, I just said it casually, I didn’t expect… Ning Qing to take it seriously…” Song Yajing smoothed things out quickly.
Lu Dinghua took Song Yajing’s shoulder and patted her on the shoulder. He said jokingly, “It’s OK to teach your daughter in law as a mother-in-law, but can’t be too fierce. You’ll frighten that girl Ning Qing. Go and ask her out.”
Ask her out personally?
Song Yajing took a look at Lu Dinghua. Lu Dinghua’s expression did not change, but he was holding her shoulders with great strength, with a certain degree of deterrence.
Song Yajing rose reluctantly and went to the kitchen.
At this time, the elders laughed, “Dinghua, I didn’t expect your family to have a daughter-in-law, your life is filled with so much fun, it has been said that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-laws were natural enemies, but I see your family is very harmonious, the daughter-in-law is very filial and obedient.”
“Of course.” Lu Dinghua agreed.
…
Song Yajing stood by the kitchen door. Ning Qing pretended to look around and inadvertently saw her. “Mom, why are you here? What do you want me to do?”
“Hmph, stop pretending, come out!”
Ning Qing smiled slightly but did not pretend to be affectionate. She put down her fruit knife and followed Song Yajing into the living room.
She was secretly pleased, she had lost so much with her mother in law, and finally, it was her mother-in-law’s turn to lose to her.
Hah, if she doesn’t do something good, her mother-in-law would still treat her as a vegetarian.
Who asked her to bully her!
Entering the living room, Ning Qing sat on one side of the sofa, and the elders smiled kindly, “Girl, tell your uncle the truth, did your mother-in-law bully you? Don’t be afraid. Today, all the uncles are here. Even if you complain, we will all support you.”
“This…” Ning Qing hesitated and looked down. Her little daughter in law appearance looked as if she had suffered many grievances. “Mother is very kind to me, just a little bit…”
Ning Qing deliberately stopped here, the original atmosphere of the living room suddenly became quiet.
Song Yajing’s expression was not looking good. Lu Dinghua was calm. Ning Qing’s eyes glided across the faces of the elders with their own thoughts. Then she giggled, “Mother doesn’t like to laugh, she always pulls a long face with me.”
Speaking of that, Ning Qing imitated the expression of Song Yajing with her lips pressed together and eyebrow furrowed. She was originally from an acting cla.s.s, and she imitated it vividly.
Now, “Haha.” Lu Dinghua laughed loudly, and those elders all laughed and one after another after pausing for a moment, “Haha…” they laughed perfunctorily.
Their test had been easily answered by the little girl.
People unavoidably looked at Ning Qing straight on she looked young and pet.i.te, they had not expected that she was also a scheming and difficult character to deal with.
Ning Qing sneered in her heart, trying to make a topic using her, using her as a target, wait till the next life.
“Mom, come and have a slice of apple.” Ning Qing took another apple and handed it to Song Yajing’s lips.
