Difficulties

Xiao Juan said calmly, "I'm eating."

Yu Niaoniao looked at the remaining half of rice in his bowl.

There was really only rice and no other dishes.

"Why aren't you eating the dishes?"

Xiao Juan said, "Rice is enough for me."

Yu Qianqian did not agree with this.

She stopped eating and put down her chopsticks to educate him.

"The nutrition provided by rice is limited. In addition to rice, people have to eat enough vegetables and meat so that their nutrition is balanced and their bodies can become healthier and less prone to illness."

Xiao Juan only replied with one word to her scientific remarks.

"Oh."

He was clearly unrepentant.

Yu Niaoniao continued to persuade him incessantly.

"You're young now, so it doesn't matter if you eat whatever you want. When you're old and all kinds of illnesses come knocking on your door, you'll know what regret is."

Xiao Juan continued to eat his rice elegantly and calmly, his chopsticks not touching the dishes on the table at all.

"You're not young anymore. Why are you still picky? This habit of yours is not good. You have to change it."

Xiao Juan finished the last bit of rice in his bowl.

He put down his bowl and chopsticks and stood up.

"I'm done. Enjoy."

With that, he left the dining hall.

Yu Qianqian was dumbfounded. He left just like that?

With so many delicious dishes left untouched, he actually only ate a bowl of rice?

As expected of the famous King of Hell in the Imperial Capital. When he was ruthless, he even tortured himself!

Granny Xiuyan had been waiting at the door. She had listened to the conversation in the dining room.

She was afraid that Yu Qianqian would misunderstand that Prince Lang was throwing a tantrum, so she quickly walked in to explain.

"Miss Yu, don't be angry. I know you mean well, but His Highness has his own difficulties."

Yu Xianniao did not understand. "How is it difficult to eat the dishes?"

Sister Xiuyan sighed helplessly.

"It's a long story.

The prince often starved when he was young and his stomach had not been well since. Since then, his diet had become exceptionally light.

In addition, there were often people who wanted to murder the duke over the years. It was common to poison his food. The duke had almost died from poisoning.

This led to his increasing aversion to food. He only ate rice for three meals a day and occasionally drank some soup."

If it were anyone else, Granny Xiu Yan would definitely not say these things.

However, the person in front of her was the future Princess Consort of Lang, the woman who was going to spend the rest of her life with the Lang Prince. She was naturally different from others.

Yu Niaoniao was in disbelief. "Isn't Your Highness the son of Princess Ni Yang? With the conditions of the Eldest Princess's residence, there's no need to let him starve, right?"

Granny Xiuyan pursed her lower lip. "I'm not sure about that."

She was originally a nanny serving the Empress Dowager. After Xiao Juan was brought to the palace to stay, the Empress Dowager asked Granny Xiu Yan to take care of Xiao Juan's daily life.

This care lasted more than a decade.

Even when Xiao Juan grew up and moved out of the palace, Sister Xiu Yan still followed him and helped him manage the matters in the mansion.

Yu Niaoniao raised her eyebrows in disapproval.

"It's excusable, but eating rice alone won't do. It's bad for your health."

Granny Xiu Yan said, "I know this is bad, but I can't persuade the county prince."

She looked at Yu Niaoniao with expectant eyes.

"Miss Yu, do you have any ideas?"

Prince Lang liked Yu Qianqian so much that he might listen to her advice!

Yu Niaoniao stroked her chin. "His Royal Highness's situation is more troublesome. His stomach is not good to begin with, so he has to recuperate carefully. In addition, he suffers from a certain degree of anorexia. The combination of the two will cause a vicious cycle, causing him to eat less and less."
