Unlimited estates for rural beauty-Chapter 522 Coming in the Night (3)

Feng Xuxu looked up: "It’s not their fault that I didn’t eat, how can it be their fault?" What’s this got to do with anything?

"Hmph, if the service is lacking, of course there’s a mistake." Holding her in his arms and sitting in the chair, Dugu Chen’s face darkened even more as he looked at a freshly drawn blueprint, pointing at the drawing in his hand and asking his wife in his arms, "Did you skip meals just because of this ghastly thing?"

"What ghastly thing, this took me two full hours to draw." Feng Xuxu was unhappy and immediately glared at him. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

"You still think you’re in the right? Skipping meals for this thing, next time you do this, I might spank you." Seeing how anxious his wife was, Dugu Chen quickly put down the drawing, fearing that he might accidentally ruin it in anger later, and his wife would have to spend another two hours drawing it. That way, he would be unable to see her for another two hours; the very thought felt like a huge loss.

"You’re going to spank me?" Feng Xuxu looked at the person behind her in surprise.

Dugu Chen nodded solemnly at Feng Xuxu.

Feng Xuxu’s mouth twitched, her eyelids jumped wildly, and her forehead was covered in black lines, one after another.

"Miss, the noodles are ready." In the awkward moment, thankfully Yingsu came to her rescue.

"Come in." Feng Xuxu hopped off someone’s thigh and walked to the chair, picked up the noodles still steaming hot, and began to eat in small bites.

Dugu Chen watched his wife eat with relish, and only then did his anger start to subside a bit. Afterwards, he picked up the drawing from the table and began to examine it closely.

"Master, Ma Fei has arrived." Huang Yi entered, standing respectfully in front of the desk, and reported deferentially.

Dugu Chen glanced up at Huang Yi, put down the drawing in his hand, gestured to Huang Yi with a wave of his hand, and stood up. He walked over to Feng Xuxu: "I’ll go have a look, eat slowly."

"Okay, you go ahead, I’ll come after I finish eating."

In the front hall, Ma Fei was fidgeting, glancing back and forth. When he saw a figure in crescent white, adorned with blooming magnolias and wearing matching long boots, Ma Fei stood up, waiting for his master to approach, then turned to greet his master with a salutation: "A thousand blessings to the master."

"Uncle Ma, please get up."

"Thank you, master." Ma Fei looked up, saw his master gesture with a chin lift for him to sit down.

Ma Fei had just settled himself when the master’s lazy voice came over again. If one listened carefully, one could feel a slight warmth in it: "Uncle Ma, how has your health been recently?"

"Haha, good, my health is much stronger than before. The old cold legs I had are now healed. They haven’t bothered me since the year before last." Talking about his health, Uncle Ma couldn’t be happier, feeling even more grateful for the mistress’s medicinal wine.

Upon hearing this, Dugu Chen felt quite reassured.

Feng Xuxu entered the hall, saw the two of them catching up, and quickly took a few steps to sit beside Ma Fei. When Ma Fei turned and saw the mistress, he was about to rise, but Feng Xuxu stopped him: "Uncle Ma! What brings you here today?"

"Hehe, I’ve been missing your medicinal wine!" The moment Uncle Ma saw Feng Xuxu, his mouth split into a broad smile, his beard lifting with joy.

Feng Xuxu held her forehead, Uncle Ma was really straightforward: "The medicinal wine is gone!"

"...No, that can’t be." Uncle Ma’s smiling face instantly froze, looking at Feng Xuxu, he shook his head in disbelief.

"What do you think?" Feng Xuxu asked with a smile in return.

Dugu Chen watched his wife for quite a while without her giving him a single glance, his gaze shifting towards Ma Fei like a sharp knife from time to time.

Uncle Ma shivered, feeling a cold breeze blowing at his back without even looking. He knew very well where that breeze was coming from.
