At the reception banquet, Xu Zhiyan faced a table full of delicious food with a tangled face.

General Hua thought that the food was not to her liking, so she raised her voice and called the maids to ask them to change the dishes. Xu Zhiyan hurriedly stopped her, "You are eating well, grandpa, why do you want to change the dishes?"

"You didn't even take a bite. How do you think you're eating well?"

General Hua's brows were raised to the sky, and he wished he could invite all the chefs in Yangzhou Prefecture to cook a table for her.

Xu Zhiyan knew as soon as she heard that her behavior had misunderstood him, and she quickly explained.

"It's not that I don't like these meals. It's because I like them but can't eat them. That's why I'm so confused. Xiaoxi, why don't you help me get some fruit juice to go with some boiled vegetables? I finally lost weight. , but we can’t get any fatter.”

These remarks were incomprehensible to the Hua family, especially Hua Xunyu. He was sitting next to her, and he stretched out his hand to lift her up. "You are as light as a cat and haven't eaten yet. A gust of wind will blow you away by then." !”

The whole process from being lifted up to being put down takes no more than five seconds.

Xu Zhiyan was dumbfounded.

[The fact that I was lifted up so easily does this prove that I am really thin and not just my illusion? Oh ho, then I have to persist even more and maintain my current weight. 】

[There must be a lot of people inviting me to banquets these days. I want to attend beautifully! 】

She had already thought about what kind of fabric and what style of clothes to use. Among them, the most frequent style was the one that highlighted the thin waist. Hua Rong and Xu Yanqing, who could hear her voice, were pissed to death.

Xu Yanqing raised his eyebrows, thinking about it.

"Nanny, in fact, she is either thin or good-looking. Do you have any impression of the family in Xinglin on the street?"

"In her early years, her daughter also ate this and that in order to lose weight. In the end, although she lost weight, she really couldn't eat anything. She retched when she saw food, and eventually she starved to death."

"You are still young this year, and you don't want to die because of losing weight, right? And I specifically asked Grandma Sun, and she said that you can slowly return to a normal diet now. As long as you don't overdo it, it will be easy to maintain your current weight."

"Come, let's drink a bowl of soup to wake up our stomach first."

It is said that drinking soup warms the stomach. This is the first time Xu Zhiyan has heard of drinking soup to wake up the body, but today's soup is stewed with chicken feet and pig's trotters. It has a salty aroma and a strong white color. She has long wanted to drink it.

At this time, Xu Yanqing persuaded her like this, and she was persuaded. She stared at the soup and swallowed.

"Okay, I'll just drink a small bowl."

She kept her word and said she would drink a little, but she would not bring more. The amount seemed like drizzle to Xu Yanqing. He was so anxious that he wanted to force her to drink more, but thinking about it, he really didn't want to. Dare to do that.

Hua Xunyu, who was sitting next to Xu Zhiyan, saw Xu Yanqing scratching her head and ears. After giving her a "leave it to me" look, he naturally put a crispy chicken roll in her hands.

"This is a new dish that the kitchen has prepared to welcome you back. The outside is crispy, and the chicken filling inside is soft, glutinous and sweet. Try it. It's just a small piece. It'll be fine."

Seeing that she had eaten, he followed the same pattern and coaxed her to eat until she was seven-tenths full before stopping. He waved his hand like he was coaxing a child, "Okay, let's go play."

Xu Zhiyan's cheeks that were still chewing stopped.

[It seems that it was arranged? 】

When Xu Yanqing heard this, he quickly got up and took the others out for a walk. "After dinner, you will live to be ninety-nine if you walk a hundred steps. If you take a walk, what you just ate will not make you fat."

Xu Zhiyan accepted this statement very well. After walking a few steps, the creek came over.

"Miss, the Song family and the Ma family have sent invitations, asking you to come and enjoy the scenery."

Xu Zhiyan had the impression that these two families were not evil families. Xu Zhiyan agreed after thinking about it.

……

The Song family's banquet was held first, and just three days later, Xu Zhiyan went to the banquet dressed beautifully. Her godmother Rong Leyan was also there. She was very happy to see her and called her over, hugging her shoulders, her eyes full of heartache.

"Look at my poor daughter-in-law. She is so thin that she is only a thin slice. She must have suffered a lot, right? Come and stay at my godmother's place these days. My godmother got a lot of good bird's nests recently. Bird's nest stew Milk helps keep people healthy even if they are not fat."

The words "not fat" struck a chord in Xu Zhiyan's heart.

"Then thank you godmother, but I have to patrol the store recently. After finishing this work, I can go to accompany my godmother wholeheartedly."

After saying this, Rong Leyan's heart felt as if it were soaked in a honey jar. It was extremely sweet, "Okay, our daughter is a good girl. When the time comes, you don't need to bring any clothes or supplies. Just come. Godmother, you have everything."

Rong Leyan likes a daughter, but he doesn't have one, so he really feels pain for Xu Zhiyan to the core. Not only does he have a courtyard dedicated to her in his house, but he also arranges everything exquisitely and appropriately.

Even the clothes in the closet and the rouge and gouache on the dressing table are updated regularly.

The updated ones were not discarded, but were sealed in case Xu Zhiyan wanted them one day but didn't have them.

Xu Zhiyan will always remember this love and care in her heart.

She took the initiative to get into Rong Leyan's arms.

"My godmother is so nice, I love my godmother!"

"Oh, you two have such a good relationship, it makes me feel more and more that my daughter is not considerate."

The person who spoke was the host of the banquet, Mrs. Song. She had a rich appearance, a pair of smiling eyes that always showed a smile no matter where she was, and her straightforward temperament made her a rare good person in Yangzhou Prefecture.

Xu Zhiyan was caught acting coquettishly, and she was a little shy for a moment. She bowed her head and exited Rong Leyan's arms, straightened her clothes, and saluted Mrs. Song in a decent manner.

Mrs. Song held her arm affectionately, and then pulled Rong Leyan to the side and sat down.

"Your godmother and I are all friends. You can just call me Aunt Song. There is no need for such a formal greeting."

As she spoke, she patted the back of Xu Zhiyan's hand with emotion, "Hey, I don't know how your mother taught her, how she managed to raise such a smart and polite child like you."

Xu Zhiyan smiled gently.

"Aunt Song is so commendable. Sister Song is the most talented woman in the capital. Aunt Song should be the mother that everyone envies."

Speaking of her daughter Song Yun, Mrs. Song was relieved but also a little worried. Thinking that there were no outsiders present, she poured out her sorrow.

"Yunyun is good. She has been well-educated since she was a child, and has a gentle personality. But recently, for some reason, she has been fascinated by a scholar. She has no time to read. She even puts aside painting and playing the piano. All her thoughts are filled with thoughts. Love.”

"It's just like this, forget it, but the scholar is still unmotivated, full of unrealistic ideas, and typically has a heart as high as the sky. But beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and Yunyun doesn't think there is anything wrong with him at all. .”
