Transmigrated as Cannon Fodder — I Rise to Female Lead Through Hard Work Chapter 321: Treating the Guests

The little arms and legs, and the person as big as a pillar base went for a run. Yi Roujing felt a bit of heartache, "There’s no hurry to run, can’t we run when we’re older?"

"But Grandpa and Dad, when they were this small, went to pick wheat." Baozi said seriously.

Yi Roujing looked at Xu Ancheng walking in from the yard.

"What’s this little hardship for a boy? You’re spoiling him too much." Xu Ancheng said.

Yi Roujing opened her mouth wide in disbelief, calling it too pampering. Xu Ancheng, the short-sighted one, if he had experienced the later generations, seen both families revolving around one child, he would know what spoiling truly is.

"Baozi reading books at ho every day is not ideal either, he should go out and see the scenery. How much exercise can a little kid have, don’t worry."

Yi Roujing didn’t refute; sotis boys need their father’s guidance. She didn’t oppose Xu Ancheng’s educational thods, but... "Now go change clothes with Mom, later we’ll go to Jing City Restaurant for dinner."

Baozi, a small person, furrowed his little brows, "Will I be touched and kissed again?"

Yi Roujing laughed, "You don’t like it?"

"Yes." Baozi nodded honestly, "But they are Mom’s friends."

Yi Roujing couldn’t help but feel soft-hearted, kissing Baozi’s face several tis, "Why are you so good?"

"Mom can kiss more." Baozi moved his face closer, making Yi Roujing laugh heartily; it was rare to see her son’s adult-like deanor so adorable.

"Ahem—" Xu Ancheng watched from the side enviously, never seeing this little guy so affectionate with him, nor his wife being so warm and proactive either, he felt left out by both.

Yi Roujing handed over Baozi, and Baozi reluctantly kissed Xu Ancheng, "Dad, you’re so old, why act like a child."

Mrs. Kang happened to hear this and laughed bending over, "Oh, our good child is so delightful; Baozi is absolutely right."

Yi Roujing laughed with tears, while Xu Ancheng looked helpless for being educated by his son.

The family of three changed into warr clothes and headed to Jing City Restaurant.

The three arrived quite early, at eleven o’clock. They booked a private room, ordered als, and then waited at the entrance.

Wang Ruohua, living nearby, was the first to arrive, at eleven fifteen. With Baozi there, Wang Ruohua didn’t rush upstairs and directly took Baozi to play.

Ren Xuejuan’s group of six arrived together, from the sa dormitory, at eleven twenty at the door, and a group of people sward in to start teasing Baozi.

Baozi slightly pursed his lips and looked at Yi Roujing begrudgingly, then obediently greeted each aunt. Baozi learned from Yi Roujing not to call them Aunt directly but to greet affectionately with a na, "Juan-Juan Aunt, Xinxin Aunt, Huahua Aunt, Ju-Ju Aunt—"

Baozi greeted all seven of Yi Roujing’s dorm mates, making them beam with joy.

However, the joy was sowhat different. Yu Cuiyu, who had children, inevitably thought of her children far away at ho seeing Baozi, smiling with slightly red eyes.

Ren Xuejuan held Baozi’s hand with anticipation and yearning, after all, she was married and wanted to have such a cute child.

The other unwed dormmates purely liked children, unable to resist such a cute little fellow.

The most complex expression might belong to Zhang ngdi, whom Yi Roujing noticed stayed farthest from Baozi and wasn’t keen on teasing him; she seed uninterested in children, yet her eyes carried a mix of defiance or irritable emotion.

Everyone was finally present, and the group headed to the private room on the second floor. Xu Ancheng went out to ask the waiter to serve dishes, and soon enough, the food started arriving one after another.

Roast duck, candied pork knuckles, Beijing stir-fried pork strips, five-flavored fish, Kung Pao chicken, scrambled eggs, lamb soup pot, Mapo tofu, plus three stir-fried vegetable dishes, along with pea cakes, and main courses of at buns and white rice.

Gong Jue’e couldn’t help but swallow seeing the full table of good dishes, "Roujing, this, this is too lavish, we don’t eat so well even during New Year, many of these ingredients are hard to co by, worthy of Jing City Restaurant."

Wang Ruohua didn’t say anything, as a Jing City native she knew, Jing City Restaurant is a famous eatery. Yet it’s not every dish is available; many ingredients need prior reservation, and so even might not be available despite reservation. Making such a full table of food is no easy feat.

The food was good, everyone was joyful while eating, but from one’s dining behavior, you could tell so things. Good families emphasize table manners—even in ordinary households, people with good upbringing maintain a poised deanor despite an intense desire for the food.

Zhang ngdi’s eating manner shocked everyone present; she stuffed every good thing into her mouth, anything she couldn’t eat was placed in her bowl. Yi Roujing thought of the word "scrape," as every dish was scraped by her.

Previously, eating in the cafeteria, where no one ordered individual food quantity, didn’t reveal Zhang ngdi’s nature like this.

"ngdi, slow down, don’t choke." Gong Jue’e couldn’t resist reminding.

"I didn’t eat breakfast, slept late, so I’m very hungry." Zhang ngdi, reminded, saw others’ sights, and explained shyly, her face slightly reddening.

Gong Jue’e really didn’t want to reveal that Zhang ngdi didn’t sleep late, she intentionally kept her stomach empty. When they went to eat breakfast, they hadn’t missed calling her; she was already awake, once they finished breakfast and returned, Zhang ngdi was in the dorm drinking water to fill her stomach.

"Don’t worry, we can add more mains if needed." Yi Roujing said smilingly, without showing any emotion on her face.

They then added a donkey roll and soup dumplings, everyone was satisfied with the al, while Zhang ngdi was directly holding her stomach, stuffed.

"Roujing, where do you live? Must be close to Jing University." Just out of the Jing City Restaurant gate, Zhang ngdi asked Yi Roujing with a smile, "Today you treated us, I must visit to express thanks next ti."

As Zhang ngdi spoke, the others’ expressions turned unwell, her eating manner was too unpleasant, visiting soone’s ho requires hospitality, now with today’s al baseline, it’s unclear how the hospitality should be. Moreover, such matters should be initiated by the host, where does such cheeky suggestion co from.

Wang Ruohua frowned tightly, her family was from Jing City; if Yi Roujing agreed, she couldn’t afford to be stingy. Generally, one could understand such suggestions as gestures for gratitude, but Zhang ngdi’s tone clearly showed an intention to exploit, heh, just like her mother.

"Today’s treat was mainly to thank you for speaking rightly during military training." Yi Roujing said with a smile, "It’s a mutually grateful exchange; if you visit again to thank, wouldn’t I end up owing another favor."
