Chapter 1013: Chapter 1013 Disposal (2)

"Yes, servant will take care of it right away!" Zhao Dafu quickly responded, paid his respects to Mo Yan and Mo Qingze among others, and respectfully retreated.

Once Zhao Dafu was a fair distance away, Xin Er looked at her sister with admiration in her eyes, shining brightly as she said, "Sis, you were so imposing just now, just like a real Commandery Princess! Your tone of voice was hardly different from usual, but Zhao Steward seemed almost afraid of you."

Mo Yan gave her sister a white look, "I am a bona fide County Lord, as honored as a Commandery Princess herself, except for not bearing the Chu surname. What difference is there between my status and that of a real Commandery Princess?"

At that moment, Xin Er also realized her mistake and quickly clasped her hands in flattery, "Isn’t it because I was dazzled and overwhelmed by my sister’s elegance? If it had been me, I might have been easily deceived by Zhao Steward."

"Humph, that’s because you are useless!" Zhenzhen finally caught the opportunity and ruthlessly ridiculed her second sister, "It was obvious that Zhao Steward was up to something; feeling guilty when facing our elder sister, he couldn’t withstand the slightest pressure! Ah, but why do I bother telling you this? Anyway, you wouldn’t be able to do anything about him."

Xin Er immediately got upset, put her hands on her hips with the air of an elder sister, and scolded Zhenzhen, "As if you’re the only clever one in the world. If you’re so smart, then how could you forget to memorize the passages? Moreover, as your second sister, you shouldn’t be ridiculing me to begin with. By the looks of it, you’ve learned your manners from a dog, who else should the Master punish if not you?"

Zhenzhen, feeling the sting of truth, stood up indignantly with her chin raised, looking at her second sister in retort, "They say the elder should love the younger; you should first be nurturing to me, your brother, before expecting me to respect you, an elder sister. How is that fair?"

Xin Er pursed her lips, laughed, and scolded back, "You’re still hung up on what happened by the door, you petty little thing!"

Zhenzhen was quick to counter, "If you’re so generous, why don’t you yield to me, your younger brother?"

"You’re a man, you should be broad-minded enough to let women have their way, besides, I’m still your elder sister!"

"Exactly, you’re my elder sister, so you should be the one yielding to me first!"

"..."

The siblings glared at each other, arguing without willing to give in. Just as their quarrel was about to escalate, Zhao’s eldest daughter-in-law came in, announcing that the meal was ready and asking the Mo Family whether they would eat here or move to the dining hall around the back.

Having a dining hall available, everyone chose to eat there without hesitation, following Zhao’s eldest daughter-in-law to the dining hall at the back.

Entering the dining hall, everyone saw that it was even larger than the main hall. After asking Zhao’s eldest daughter-in-law, they learned it was used for hosting banquets and entertaining guests, and that the smaller dining hall within was actually where the meals were served.

The layout of the dining hall was quite nice, with orange-yellow as the main theme color, and the decorations were fitting, exuding warmth and coziness. In such an environment, even eating became a heartfelt and happy affair, which the Mo Family enjoyed immensely.

The large round table that sat ten was laid with ten dishes. Apart from a few meat dishes like chicken, duck, and fish, the rest were seasonal vegetables. The vegetables were grown by the Zhao family members themselves, the chickens, ducks, and fish were raised on their farmstead, only the pork was bought from Chen Family Village.

Chen Family Village did not have a market, but there was a butcher in the village who slaughtered a pig every other day and would go around the streets and alleys with an ox-cart selling it, which was much more convenient than buying from the town.

All the dishes at the table were made by Zhao Dafu’s wife, Old Lady Meng. Although the vegetable dishes were not as delicious as those grown with Spirit Spring Water at the Mo Family’s place, Old Lady Meng’s culinary skills were commendable and catered well to the family’s palate. Mo Yan was not stingy with praise, and repeatedly complimented her, making Old Lady Meng extremely happy, feeling that the new masters were very approachable.
