Chapter 417 - 298 Setting a Trap
Ye Shiqi felt that today’s meal was quite delicious, although it couldn’t compare to the dishes cooked by the chef at home. An advantage was the freshness of the ingredients, which made the food delectable.
She had eaten a bit of dim sum earlier, just enough to tide her over. She hadn’t eaten much for breakfast, but during the sumptuous lunch, she had a bowl of rice and quite a few dishes.
Mrs. Li had previously let her mother take care of her son who was already half a year old. At home, they didn’t let him eat rice but cooked porridge instead, as the baby’s stomach wasn’t strong enough yet.
Just now, while they were preparing the meal, they took a small clay pot, placed a handful of rice, some water, and some minced pork in it, and cooked this porridge in the fire pit.
By the time they had cooked the meal, Grandma Li had already fed the little baby with the help of the maid. At this moment, the well-fed six-month-old was asleep, and everyone’s joyful dining didn’t affect his sleep at all.
Ye Shiqi looked at the abundance of dishes in her bowl, feeling almost full, and asked the maid who took care of her to sit down and eat as well.
The obedient maid sat down to eat; during the meal, she felt hungry, but propriety forced her to endure the hunger.
The Li family’s meal today was meat-centric, with chicken, duck, goose, and pork. Even though there were four tables, everyone was satisfied with the meat dishes.
