CHAPTER 730: CHAPTER 732, COUSIN CHUXI (4 UPDATES)

Yun Jinnian spoke softly to console her.

Yun Zihan nodded, "That’s the logic, but I still feel some hatred in my heart. I don’t mind the change in my dowry, but my aunt, she is so innocent!"

Yun Jinnian took Yun Zihan’s hand, "What goes around comes around, heaven watches what we do. Sooner or later, retribution will come. Sister, just wait and see!"

Yun Zihan nodded.

"Yes, I’ll wait for those people to get their retribution!"

As the sisters talked, Xun Chuxi had already prepared lunch.

It was all set in the dining hall, Chuxi came over beaming with joy.

"Cousin-in-law, Sister Jinnian, lunch is ready. Let’s go and have lunch!" Xun Chuxi said, and then asked Yun Zihan, "Cousin-in-law, is cousin joining us?"

"Together, did anyone go to invite Tianci from the outer courtyard?" Yun Zihan asked.

"I’ve already sent someone. Today I took charge and ordered extra dishes for the outer courtyard as well, hee hee hee!"

Yun Zihan was momentarily taken aback but then smiled, "You did the right thing, let’s go!"

Xun Chuxi quickly linked arms with Yun Zihan, sneaking a glance at Yun Jinnian and started to giggle.

As a country girl, she couldn’t believe her luck to be in the Capital City, let alone calling a Commandery Princess her sister.

"Hee hee hee!"

Xun Chuxi giggled to herself.

Yun Zihan looked on and sighed softly.

In the presence of Yun Jinnian, she still left some dignity for Xun Chuxi, not scolding her for laughing like that.

When Chuxi first arrived, she spoke with a strong provincial accent, called Xun Erniu, and Yun Zihan had Liao Shijie help her pick a new name and teach her the language of the Capital City. It took a lot of effort for Chuxi to achieve the progress she had made.

She had indeed come a long way.

When they reached the dining hall, Liao Shijie and Han Tianci were already there, chatting. Shijie didn’t expect that Tianci, the same height as him, was not yet ten years old, yet he had a wide range of knowledge.

He knew things from all over, and when he got excited, he would laugh heartily, truly like a ten-year-old child.

"Sister!" Han Tianci called out happily upon seeing Yun Jinnian.

Yun Jinnian nodded her head.

The lunch was very sumptuous.

There were already guidelines in the big kitchen, and with the New Year fast approaching, the household had plenty of everything. Chuxi had ordered plenty of dishes at first, and later added a few more.

However, they were mostly meat.

Yun Jinnian didn’t like meat much, but Han Tianci thoroughly enjoyed it.

Liao Shijie kept serving Yun Zihan dishes and scooped up half a bowl of soup for her mid-meal.

"Six parts full will do, you can eat more later!" He said tenderly.

Yun Jinnian and Han Tianci looked on and burst into laughter.

Xun Chuxi too started to giggle.

Yun Zihan’s face reddened, and she glared at Liao Shijie, "I know!"

Many pregnant women tend to overeat, resulting in the baby growing too large, which not only leads to a difficult childbirth but also a high risk of complications.

For this reason, Liao Shijie was adamant about not letting her overeat, though she ate several meals a day.

Despite this, the meal was still extremely pleasant.

After the meal, Liao Shijie took Han Tianci to the front courtyard. At first, Tianci said he was just going to walk around in the courtyard and did not intend to disturb anyone.

Xun Chuxi directed the servants to clean up.

Yun Zihan shook her head slightly, "Chuxi, come sit!"

Xun Chuxi walked over to Yun Zihan with a smile, "Cousin-in-law!" and then called out to Yun Jinnian in a low voice, "Sister Jinnian!"

Her heart was filled with joy.

Yun Jinnian smiled and nodded, lifting her tea to take a gentle sip, the picture of grace.

Xun Chuxi watched, envious and giggling with delight.

"There are maids and old women at home to do these tasks; you only need to give the orders, no need to do everything yourself. Also, don’t laugh like that, showing all of your teeth!"

As she spoke, Yun Zihan started to worry about Chuxi’s prospects for marriage.
