You are the sweet that I can't hide

Chapter 2363 Nineteen is still two months away 1
ancestral hall.

Accompanied by the old lady, Zhong Yien knelt on the futon and paid homage to the ancestors of the Nie family.

The old lady arranged the tribute neatly, looked back at the kneeling woman, and said calmly, "Madam, stay here first. I'll come back later."

"Ah? Do you still have to kneel for a long time?"

"Of course, newcomers must show their sincerity when offering sacrifices to their ancestors. According to the rules, Madam has to kneel here until noon." After finishing speaking, the old lady went out.

Kneel until noon...?
It's really not easy to be the wife of a big family.

Zhong Yien just knelt in the ancestral hall, and as time passed, his calf felt so numb that he lost consciousness.

In the morning, I ate a little porridge without any oil stars, ate some white flour steamed buns, and I started to feel hungry.

At this moment, footsteps came from behind, accompanied by the sound of the door of the ancestral hall closing.

Because her back was facing the door, she didn't hear it at first, until the man's figure appeared in her peripheral vision, she was startled, turned her head, and saw a familiar long shadow appearing in her sight.

It was the man from last night...

"How did you come?"

It seems that this person really has some status in the Nie family, otherwise he wouldn't be able to come into the ancestral hall casually.

Nie Zheng looked at her: "Get up."

He handed her something wrapped in oiled paper in his hand.

She was surprised, but dared not stand up.

In case of being found out, I don't know how angry the Nie family will be, just fine her, if she is kicked out, it will be over.

Seeing that she was afraid, Nie Zheng walked over a few steps and handed the things in his hands to her who was kneeling on the futon.

She took it just now, and as soon as she took it into her nose, she smelled the aroma coming from the paper bag. When she opened it, it turned out to be a huge roasted chicken leg. She immediately moved her index finger, and her saliva almost came out.

For myself who only drank a little light porridge in the morning, this is simply a delicacy.

He looked at Nie Zheng again.

"I don't want me to teach you how to eat." The man raised his lips slightly.

She blushed slightly, why did he feed herself twice when she met this person...

And every time he can know in advance that he is hungry and tired...

He hesitated again, after all, he was still a little worried about being discovered.

He dispelled her worries: "The servant will come here in at least an hour."

Only then did she lose her fear, and began to eat in small bites.

I have never eaten such delicious chicken drumsticks, the sauce is delicious, the skin is crispy and the meat is tender, it is so delicious.

He watched her eating on her knees, and couldn't help but frowned: "There are chairs over there, you can get up, sit and eat well."

"No need, that's all." She said vaguely as she ate.

"Aren't you so tired?"

"I'm not tired. It seems a little disrespectful to the ancestors of the Nie family to eat meat in other people's ancestral halls. If you sit down,...it seems even less polite." Although she came from a poor family, she was morally I still understand.

He lightly raised his lips: "Don't worry, the ancestors of the Nie family won't blame you."

She glanced at him and said that he was the master of the Nie family, he was just a housekeeper, how could he have the right to speak for the ancestors of the Nie family?

But when he saw that she was not moving, he had already stepped over in two steps, without asking any questions, he hugged the woman on the futon.

She was still holding the chicken leg in her hand, her pupils widened and she froze. In the aroma of the chicken leg, there was a faint scent of sandalwood from the man's clothes.

He hugged her sideways, walked to the chair on the side of the ancestral hall, and put her on it.

Only then did she wake up, and she just pretended that what happened just now didn't happen, and continued to eat chicken legs as fast as she could.
