Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord-Chapter 31 - Ashen-faced

Chapter 31: Chapter 31 Ashen-faced

Madam Ruan, her face grimy from cooking since early morning, was nursing a bellyful of anger. She glared at Auntie Sun and snapped, “If you’re not eating, get lost. I’m certainly not keen on serving you.”

“Giggle giggle giggle… Is this your doing, Madam Ruan? Now that explains it. If my sister had cooked, how could it possibly turn out like this? Madam Ruan, are you sure this is even edible? If you end up giving us all diarrhea, you’ll be paying the medical bills, you know.”

Auntie Sun, with a mocking smile, picked up a few pieces of the unappetizingly dark vegetables with her chopsticks and held them up to Madam Ruan’s face.

Today, Auntie Sun had styled her hair into a hairbun, with more hair draped over the front to cover her ears. To the uninformed, her missing ear wasn’t noticeable, and now she looked more pleasing to the eye. It was as though she had regained her beauty, and her confidence could be heard in her speech.

“Slap.”

Madam Ruan completely lost her temper, slapping away Auntie Sun’s hand, her face contorted with rage: “You little Seductress Fox, it’s already good enough that you have something to eat, and yet you’re still picky.”

...

“Aiyo, hey!”

Auntie Sun had her hand slapped by Madam Ruan, causing the chopsticks and vegetables to fall to the ground. She was suddenly annoyed and, turning around, began to whine while shaking Xiaoqiang’s arm: “Husband, she hit me, it really hurts, look.”

After saying this, she extended her hand toward him with an aggrieved expression.

“You too. If there’s food to eat, just eat it. Why did you provoke her?” Mo Xiaoqiang looked at the table full of food and was also reluctant to start eating.

“You people who live in luxury, I’ve slaved away since early morning to serve you, and yet you’re picky and choosy. It’s clear you don’t appreciate what’s done for you. If you don’t want to eat, then forget it; I’ll eat by myself.” Having said that, Madam Ruan reached for the chopsticks, picked up a lump of the dark vegetables, closed her eyes as if resigned to her fate, and stuffed them into her mouth. After chewing twice, she stopped, her face contorted as if she had swallowed a bitter gourd.

The appearance of these dishes was so unappetizing that the Mo family, young and old, were afraid to start eating. Seeing Madam Ruan eat, they looked on helplessly, all eyes fixed on her…

“How does it taste, wife?” Mo Daoyan asked with concern. After all, in their many years of marriage, he had yet to taste the food cooked by his wife.

Madam Ruan, with vegetables in her mouth, was in a dilemma, neither able to spit them out nor muster the courage to swallow.

“Giggle giggle giggle…”

Auntie Sun laughed with a triumphant expression: “Little uncle, are you dumb? Can’t you see for yourself? Just look at your wife’s face, all wrinkled like a bitter gourd. It must be awful.”

“Slap.”

Suddenly, Old Lady Mo sent her chopsticks flying with a flick of her wrist and roared at Madam Ruan: “Madam Ruan, you dead woman, I asked you to make a meal. If you were unwilling, you should have said so, but to make it like this—were you deliberately trying to upset me, old woman?”

Madam Ruan felt incredibly wronged. After all, was she really that bad at cooking? Plus, she had tasted the food herself just now.

“Mother-in-law, I didn’t do it on purpose. If I had, would I have eaten it just now? I’m not stupid,” Madam Ruan said with a mournful face.

“Mother, you know my wife can’t cook, so why did you ask her to? My sister-in-law makes delicious meals, so why not have her cook instead?”

“You wretched boy, just keep spoiling her. You’ll suffer for it later,” Old Lady Mo said coldly to Mo Daoyan.

“Mother, where’s my sister-in-law? Why didn’t she cook breakfast today?” Desperate to avoid his wife’s atrocious cooking in the future, Mo Daoyan pressed for an answer again.

“That old hen is acting all precious now, staying in her room,” Old Lady Mo said in a mocking tone.

“Slap.”

Another sound of a bowl being slammed.

All heads turned at the noise, only to see Xuexue, her face filled with fury, slamming the bowl down onto the table with force.

“You wretched girl, are you trying to rebel?” Old Lady Mo said, immediately infuriated at the sight.
