Opening Gambit (3)

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were chatting amiably in the dining hall. Although the servants outside could not really hear the contents of their conversation, they were shocked to see Madam's warm, kind, and gentle face.

Was this still the hot-tempered Madam?

Was this still the Madam who always treated everyone coldly?

Did the sun rise from the west?

Why did Madam speak so gently to a fool? That fool was clearly very rude.

The servants were all dumbfounded and scratched their heads.

Until a sinister voice came from behind.

"What are you all doing?"

After receiving Er Mo's personal invitation, Feng Songjie knew that he couldn't avoid it this morning, so he had no choice but to come to the dining room. Unexpectedly, from afar, he saw the servants leaning against the dining room window and stretching their necks as if there was something strange inside!

Did his silly Young Madam make a fool of herself?

When the seven or eight servants heard this, they suddenly turned around, and their expressions changed drastically.

They shook their heads vigorously.

Feng Songjie braced himself and glanced inside.

He raised his eyebrows in confusion.

He glanced at the servants again.

There was nothing strange about the meal and conversation inside, so why were they all watching?

Since he was already here, he had to have breakfast before going to the front office to work.

Feng Songjie was expressionless. Pretending not to know anything, he stepped into the dining room. "Mother! Why did you call me over so early in the morning…"

Before he could finish his sentence, he realized why the maids and servants were desperately looking inside.

His mother, who had a hot temper, actually sat with a fool and seemed to be chatting very well with her. What kind of scene was this?

Had he seen a ghost?

Feng Songjie was speechless.

"Why are you two sitting together?"

Bai Weiyang looked up and greeted Feng Songjie with a silly smile.

Feng Songjie ignored her.

She was secretly delighted.

Wu Su said straightforwardly, "I'm eating with my daughter-in-law. What's wrong with that?"

Feng Songjie gasped.

Based on his understanding of his mother, it was impossible for her to get along with a fool like Bai Weiyang. How could she sit down so calmly to eat? Or was it because his mother was showing her mother-in-law's kindness to a fool on the first day?

Feng Songjie's mind raced.

Wu Su spoke again.

"It's your first day of marriage. Don't dawdle. Although your father isn't around, we still have to sit together for a meal as a family! Sit down."

"…"

Feng Songjie choked and pretended to respect his mother. Without a word, he sat in an empty seat far away from the two of them.

He wanted to see what his mother was up to. What was she trying to do?

Bai Weiyang lowered her head and pretended to be a silly foodie as she ate her breakfast.

However, Wu Su said, "Second Feng, I heard that you didn't sleep in your bedroom last night. What happened?"

Feng Songjie could not be bothered with his noisy mother and remained silent.

Wu Su did not give him a chance to calm down. She put down the spoon in her hand and asked seriously, "Could it be that you can't do it?"

Bai Weiyang almost spat the milk tea she had just drunk all over the table. She endured the discomfort of choking and swallowed it forcefully, holding back her laughter.

Feng Songjie's veins were bulging as he shouted, "Mother!!"

Wu Su did not care about his expression as she said,

"It's very likely that's the reason. After all, you took in two concubines and even hid a singer in a house out there. It's been three years, but I haven't seen any tiny brats pop up in the Military Governor's residence!"

Wu Su's words made Bai Weiyang raise her head and look at Feng Songjie in surprise.

She thought, Could it be that he really couldn't do it?
