”Cough, cough …” This was already the eighth time Lord Assistant Minister was coughing at the table.

”Father, is your throat sore? Should I find a doctor? ” Nangong Waner put down his chopsticks and asked Lord Assistant Minister in concern.

Lord Assistant Minister did not reply. He turned his head and glared at Nangong Waner, then just lowered his head and silently ate his meal.

Nangong Waner raised his eyebrows and looked at Madam Yang, ”Mother, my father seems to have a bad throat.”

Madam Yang did not pay attention to Nangong Waner, but suddenly seemed to have realized something, ”Oh, Xiao Ze, eat more, I heard that you have been busy with official affairs in the Ministry of Justice recently, and took the time to come visit us Wan Er, sorry for troubling you.” With that, Madam Yang picked another chicken wing into Xiao Ze's bowl.

”Mom, don't always give Xiao Ze food, I will feel uncomfortable.” Nangong Waner said in a annoyed tone as he saw Madam Yang always give food to Xiao Ze from time to time.

”It can't be. I'm used to it. Thank you, Auntie. It's just that Auntie is too enthusiastic. Don't disturb Auntie's meal. I can eat by myself.” Xiao Ze glanced at Nangong Waner as he spoke, and then turned to look at Madam Yang seriously.

”Look, this child really knows how to talk. He's really pleasing. The more I look at him, the more I like him.” Madam Yang lowered his head and whispered into Lord Assistant Minister's ear.

Lord Assistant Minister nodded silently, his face had a look of admiration.

Nangong Waner felt that the Assistant Minister couple were really strange, they had been talking about him ever since they ate, and even from the beginning until the end of the meal, Madam Yang did not care that his daughter did not have any appetite to eat at all.

After eating, the servants quickly cleaned up the table. Lord Assistant Minister started to chat on the table.

”Xiao Ze, if you don't like Assistant Minister’s Residence's food, you can tell Aunt about it, no need to be embarrassed. Oh right, if you have anything else you like to eat, you can tell Aunt that when you come next time, I will have the kitchen prepare it in advance and I will definitely make you eat it!” Madam Yang frowned as he looked at Madam Yang. Could it be that Madam Yang had some huge regret in his heart that had given birth to his son?

”Mother, I didn't eat well tonight. I like to eat wine and brew wings. Bamboo Seng Geese, let me eat tomorrow.” Nangong Waner's complexion and spirit had been restored by a large amount, and he was still able to tease Madam Yang like this.

”You're as strong as an ox. You can't get hungry at all times, even if it's not good.” Madam Yang immediately said coldly when he saw Nangong Waner's expression. After he finished speaking, he immediately changed to a warm and familiar face, smiling at Xiao Ze.

Nangong Waner was unconvinced after hearing this as he muttered to himself, ”Indeed, he isn't his biological son. He treats other people's sons better than me.”

Xiao Ze couldn't help but laugh as he heard Nangong Waner's whispered words. Xiao Ze poured a cup of water for Nangong Waner as he said gently and warmly, ”It's just that this is my first time coming to Assistant Minister’s Residence. Xiao Ze looked at Nangong Waner who had finished speaking, and then looked at him and said extremely politely, ”Aunt is too kind, I will definitely come to bother you again in the future.”

”If you don't want to disturb me, just do it.” Madam Yang replied as he looked at Nangong Waner sternly, ”Look at how polite Xiao Ze is, and how nice his words are.” The more Madam Yang looked at Xiao Ze, the more he liked him.

”Wan Er, you seem to be living a miserable life.” Even Liu Zhi, who was at the side, could not take it anymore, and turned to tease Nangong Waner.
