"I quite like it. By the way, if I want some tea, do I need your wife's permission?"
Yuan Jiaqi nodded awkwardly. It was then that the emperor realized he hadn't met the lady of the house yet.
"Where is she? You said she was in the kitchen, but I didn't see her when I went there. Could it be that she dislikes me and doesn't want to see me?"
"No, she should be busy with something. Your arrival has everyone in my house on edge."
The emperor didn't believe his excuses. Yuan Jiaqi usually appeared honest and straightforward. He hadn't expected him to be so slick.
"Hurry, go call your wife. I will taste some fruits."
The old emperor sat down at the table. "Continue. I'll taste the fruits here."
Yuan Jiaqi reluctantly stood up and went to Yuexian Residence to invite his wife.
The emperor watched as Chuan'er introduced and tried one thing after another, savoring what he hadn't eaten before.
