Chapter 708: Chapter 708: Meeting Gift
Oh! So they are from the main Di Family branch, no wonder they are not aware of it.
Everyone finally understood the situation and couldn’t help but break out in a sweat.
Zhao Yuanlang’s gaze shifted from Di Yelei to Nan Tianzong, and after a while, he looked over at the rest of the crowd. In the end, he didn’t say anything more and walked towards the front hall.
Prefecture Princess Luo’s eyes were covered with a white cloth, and she listened attentively to the sounds nearby without speaking.
Taking advantage of Liu Sisi walking behind, Di Yelei hurriedly grabbed her hand and anxiously scanned her from head to toe in concern: “How are you? Did he bully you?”
Liu Sisi shook her head, and her gaze fell on Di Ah-bao and Ms. Zhao: “Eat more cooked dishes and talk less during the meal today. If you don’t, don’t ask me how to move out later.”
After that, Liu Sisi took the lead and stepped into the front hall.
In the front hall, the eunuch Xiao with a pale, beardless face was carefully testing the cooked dishes on the table. After going through all the dishes, he stopped and stepped aside.
Zhao Yuanlang had already regained his composure. Seeing Liu Sisi, who was standing at the entrance hesitating, he quickly beckoned her.
“Ruyu, why are you still standing at the door? Come over here quickly and sit down beside me!”
Nan Tianzong’s face turned pale. The two people had already reached an agreement? He tried his best to maintain his composure and nodded to Liu Sisi.
“Yes.”
Liu Sisi also tried her best to hide her emotions and sat down on Zhao Yuanlang’s right side.
Everyone was held back by Di Yelei, fearing they would offend the noble guest. He and Nan Tianzong entered the front hall one after the other, standing on both sides of the room with their hands tied.
“Prince Gong, Prince Consort Di, please sit down and eat as well.”
Nobody dared to refute Zhao Yuanlang’s words, so the two thanked him and sat down.
“Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as the Reunion Festival. Since it’s a reunion festival, the whole family must be together. Invite them in as well, and let’s set up another table so everyone can eat together.”
With such command from His Majesty, Di Yelei naturally didn’t dare to disobey. He hurriedly went outside to give more instructions to everyone before calling them in again. This time, everyone was present, including the three infants who were still in swaddling clothes and were carried in by nannies.
At the moment, it was almost noontime. Fortunately, Young Master Di did not say anything more and took the lead in using his chopsticks.
Everyone was already hungry by now, and they naturally wouldn’t be polite in eating.
However, with guests present, the atmosphere during the meal was quite tense. For example, Di Ying, who was used to sitting next to Liu Sisi, suddenly found himself so far away from her that he nearly burst into tears. Thankfully, Ms. Xin sitting beside him covered his mouth in time.
Later, in the middle of the meal, the nanny’s baby, Niuniu, suddenly started crying. As soon as Niuniu cried, Chou Chou sitting next to her joined in as well. Only the youngest one stared around with wide eyes, his little claws rolling restlessly.
The two nannies were so frightened that their faces turned pale, not knowing whether to advance or retreat.
Fortunately, Zhao Yuanlang did not get angry. He put down his bamboo chopsticks and looked at the babies in the nannies’ arms.
“Are these the triplets? Bring them over and let me have a look.”
Seeing Young Master Di stop using his chopsticks, everyone hastily put down their chopsticks too.
