Chapter One-Hundred and Forty-One: Questions

Yan Tang showed a rare moment of childishness before Mai Fen as she retorted, "We were out working!"

Mai Fen swatted her shoulders in mock admonishment. "You mean you were accompanying Shi Xiu when she worked, right? It's not like you're willing to feed the chickens and ducks."

Yan Tang smiled without saying anything. Shi Xiu reached out to grab chicken feet from one of the dishes and said, "Of course, Yang Tang is willing. She helped me carry the feed basket. We worked well together!"

Yan Tang laughed, and so did Mai Fen. Mai Fen tapped the back of Shi Xiu's hand with her chopsticks, gently chiding, "Don't eat with your hands! Sit down when you're eating. What's the hurry?"

Shi Xiu stuffed the deboned chicken feet into her mouth and repeatedly nodded while mumbling with her mouth full, "This is delicious!" She grabbed a stool and sat down.
