In the evening, Third Uncle's family hosted a banquet to celebrate his new position in the government. For once, Zhou forked out enough money to prepare an extravagant meal.
During dinner, Zhou kept on giggling happily, clearly reveling in her unabashed triumph. She also kept complimenting Liu Li, as to which the latter only answered with a humble smile.
Ye Jiayao ate her food silently, thinking whether this 'help' was out of the goodness of Liu Li's heart or if it was simply a 'reward'.
"Second Cousin-in-law, eat some fish roe. It promotes good pregnancy," Yulian said with a fake smile.
Ye Jiayao held her breath, working hard on calming her temper.
Zhou lightly reprimanded, "Yulian, Jinxuan's already taking medicine for that. Did you forget that she should avoid fishy smell?"
"Oh, that's right," Yulian said. "I have a bad memory. Forgive me, Second Cousin-in-law."
