Chapter 975: Chapter 975 Parents Are Hungry (Happy New Year)
"My dear, I am so hungry that I can barely walk, let alone tidy up the house. I am sorry to trouble you." Mo Daoyan said weakly.
Old Master Mo: "Yaner, our whole family is starving. It’s not a solution to just wait here. Go outside quickly and find some food to fill our stomachs first."
"There is so much ground to cover in the General’s Mansion, where do I even start looking?" He had been walking for an hour just now.
"Ask the maid outside."
"Ah!"
Mo Daoyan was also extremely hungry, and upon hearing this, he immediately stood up and walked outside.
Just as his figure disappeared outside the door, Grandma Mo started scolding Old Master Mo again: "You old fool, why send Yaner out to find food? As a grand household, we are supposed to have maids bring the food to us directly. By sending Yaner out like this, aren’t we demeaning our own status?"
"We are nearly starving to death, and you talk about status? Besides, we are originally from a farmer’s family, what status do we have to speak of?"
"In grand households, the most important thing is face and reputation, what do you know, old man?"
"Acting like you know so well, have you lived in a grand household before?"
"My wit comes naturally, I’ve heard about it."
"Fine, you’re formidable."
Old Master Mo expressed his desire to ignore Grandma Mo; his wife’s unreasonably quarrelsome nature was growing stronger.
Madam Ruan and her daughter, hungry, finally finished cleaning up the rooms.
"Eunuch, Mother-in-law, the rooms are tidied up, but there are no quilts, how are we supposed to sleep?" Madam Ruan, having tidied up, was covered in dirt and dust, all excitement gone, feeling so despairing that she wished to die.
Coming to the General’s Mansion, how is it worse off than Mo Family Village?
Though there are so many maids, they have to do the work themselves.
Worse still, all chores are designated to the mother and daughter.
Old Master Mo and Grandma Mo act like masters, just sitting there.
"Ah! If only Qiangqiang was in one of the courtyards, it would be great if he were here." Suddenly, Old Master Mo’s eyes lit up as he remembered his eldest son.
"Right! How could I forget Qiangqiang?" Grandma Mo slapped her thigh and exclaimed excitedly.
At this moment, Mo Daoyan, who went out to find food, returned.
He was holding a tray covered with a white cloth which concealed its contents; his face beaming with excitement, he called out, "My dear, my dear, we finally have something to eat."
"Really?"
Madam Ruan, too excited, approached him; she was nearly starving to death.
"Indeed, take a look." saying this, Mo Daoyan reached out to lift a corner of the white cloth on the tray revealing the white buns inside.
"Ah! There are buns to eat, that’s wonderful."
Madam Ruan couldn’t wait and was about to grab one to eat.
"Cough cough cough...!"
Suddenly, a series of fierce coughs were heard.
Madam Ruan’s reaching hand instantly dropped; she didn’t need to look back to know that the coughs were from Grandma Mo, warning her that as a daughter-in-law, she cannot eat before her in-laws.
She swallowed hard, "Husband, I’m not hungry, let the Eunuch and Mother-in-law eat first."
"Weren’t you just constantly saying you were hungry?"
"Yes!"
"Go ahead and eat."
Madam Ruan was truly too hungry and reached out her hand again.
"Cough cough cough...!" Another round of fierce coughing accompanied by Grandma Mo’s voice rang out: "Yaner, both Dad and Mom are hungry, come here quickly."
