Chapter 850 - 849: Scheming Dog
After much effort to separate the two, they finally sat down as guest and host, and each was served a cup of hot tea, barely bringing the situation under control.
Old Madam Ding cautiously approached and asked the host what to have for dinner and if the guests would stay, suggesting early preparations.
Looking at the sky, she thought of how much help Gu Zikai and Ninth Master Lee had provided when Old Granny Zhang was sick and didn’t feel like entertaining guests before.
Today, it was rare for both of them to be at the Song Family estate. Song Chongjin and Wang Yongzhu exchanged a glance and decided to invite the guests for dinner.
Hearing this invitation, Ninth Master Lee and Gu Zikai were somewhat flattered; after dealing with Wang Yongzhu and Song Chongjin for so long, they had never been invited to a meal before.
Moreover, both were somewhat reluctant to leave the small courtyard, forgetting their usual formalities.
Ninth Master Lee said, "Alright, just in time to taste your kitchen maid’s cooking—"
Gu Zikai added, "To decline such a kind invitation would be impolite—"
After inviting the two for dinner, Song Chongjin thought they might at least be polite, but to his surprise, both Ninth Master Lee and Gu Zikai agreed so straightforwardly.
This left the planned courteous words unsaid.
