"In-law, have mercy on us with your words."
"The words may not be pleasant, but that's the idea. Can you understand it?"
"Pfft, haha."
Yuan Jiaqi and the empress couldn't help but laugh. The old emperor's face turned red, and he quickly sipped his cold drink.
"Ling'er is pregnant. In-law, would you like to showcase your skills?"
"What would you like to eat?"
"Something light. The sashimi we had at the Rong family the other day was pretty good."
"Do you like raw and marinated dishes?"
"No. Sashimi was good, but the other raw and marinated dishes are too fishy for our taste."
"Alright, wait a moment."
Qiao Mai went into the inner room, leaving them outside. Yuan Jiaqi and the emperor tidied the table and waited for the dishes.
Soon, Qiao Mai brought a large plate full of various fish slices, showcasing exquisite knife skills and presentation that amazed them.
"Beer, beer. In-law, chilled beer!"
