Chef Wang pointed at the big lamp leg.
Lian Qian went out. At noon, she smelled a fragrance. Chef Wang placed the grill in the courtyard. When Lian Qian went, he placed the cooked meat into the spring pancake. “Madam, try this.”
The spring pancake was made of rice. It was thin and the mutton oil was fragrant.
After swallowing the meat, Lian Qian felt that it was too oily. Chef Wang seemed to have thought of this. He opened the big jar at the side. Inside was soup.
Lian Qian ate and drank slowly.
Footsteps came from outside. At the same time, a child said in surprise, “Brother, I didn’t lie to you, right? The smell here is really good.”
During this period of time, there was often a fragrance coming from the main courtyard. The son and daughter of the concubine noticed it, so they came.
Seeing the two children, Lian Qian immediately lost her appetite.
The two children more or less looked like their parents. Lian Qian had only seen the concubine a few times. With a glance at the children, she knew that these two children looked more like their father.
When the two children saw Lian Qian, they frowned. The girl walked over and sat down. She ordered, “Hurry up and roast a piece of meat for me.”
The boy also walked over and said coldly, “My sister wants to eat this lamb leg. This is not enough. Hurry up and get another lamb leg over.”
Chef Wang looked at Lian Qian. Lian Qian’s expression was calm as she said coldly, “Get out.”
Lian Qian rarely flared up and had never seen these two children. They had known since they were young that Lian Qian was the first wife, but so what? Their father did not go to her place at all. They had even heard the maidservants discussing in private that Lian Qian’s position as the first wife existed in name only.
Many years after her marriage, Lian Qian was still a virgin.
Today, when she suddenly flared up, the two children were shocked at first, then angry. The girl said to Lian Qian angrily, “How dare you scold me? You’re dead. 1’11 get my father to chase you out.”
The boy also frowned and pulled the girl up. “Sister, let’s go back.”
Even a child knew that Lian Qian was not even comparable to a concubine.
The boy stormed off with the girl.
Lian Qian was expressionless as if nothing had happened just now. She said calmly, “I’m not full yet. Continue roasting.”
Chef Wang continued to roast the meat, but he was also glancing at Lian Qian from time to time.
After eating, Lian Qian said, “I’ll skip dinner.”
Chef Wang nodded. “Okay, Madam.”
It was Lian Qian’s decision to eat or not. He was just a chef and could not make the decision.
When she returned to the study, Lian Qian took out some title deeds. Her heart was heavy. The girl’s words today had hurt her.
She was the madam of this family, but in the hearts of her husband and his concubine, she was just their servant. She earned money for them so that their family of four could live comfortably, but she could chase them away at will.
The corners of Lian Qian’s mouth curled into a mocking smile. “In your dreams.”
They treated her as a servant. She had suffered grievances for ten years, but that was about to end.
Lian Qian took the title deeds and went out. She had married the wrong person. This was the reality that she could no longer ignore. After settling the title deeds, she returned to the mansion.
Su Yanyu was so excited that he wanted to shout. He felt that what Lian Qian did was too satisfying. If she had done this earlier, she would not have suffered so much grievance. Suddenly, Su Yanyu looked forward to what was going to unfold.
When Lian Qian returned to the main courtyard, she saw the man.
The middle-aged man had not changed much from when he was young. Now, he was more mature. The way he looked at Lian Qian was still cold. He was even a little angry and displeased. As if he was suppressing his anger, he said, “You shouldn’t have shouted at my daughter. Go and apologize to her and send the chef in your courtyard over. Children are picky about food. Perhaps they’ll get tired of the food your chief makes in a few days. When the time comes, you can call him back.”
The man had an arrogant attitude and tone. He was silently expressing that he was more powerful than Lian Qian and could make the decision.
Lian Qian said calmly, “What if I don’t agree?”
The man frowned, unable to conceal the anger in his eyes. “What right do you have to object? I’ve already said that if you want the position of the first wife, you can take it, but there are some things that I won’t give you. If I don’t give them to you, you’ll never get them.”
In the man’s opinion, Lian Qian was just a tool he could use. If she was disobedient, he could abandon her at any time.
Looking at the man’s arrogant expression, Lian Qian understood what he was thinking.
Lian Qian asked calmly, “What do you have?”
Everything in this mansion was hers.
The man was very dissatisfied with Lian Qian’s response. He looked at Lian Qian with disgust and impatience. He said coldly, “Don’t push your luck. Otherwise, I’ll divorce you.”
The word “divorce” made Lian Qian’s heart skipped a beat. She looked at the man and suddenly sneered. “Do you dare? This mansion is already mine. Everything you think you have is mine. If you divorce me, where will you go with your concubine and children? You’re used to a comfortable life. How can you live without money?”
The man’s eyes burned with anger. “You b*tch, what have you done?”
Lian Qian looked at the man. He looked as gentle as she remembered. Back then, among the many portraits, she chose him at a glance. She thought that if she had to choose a husband to spend the rest of her life with, it would be him.
However, on their wedding night, this man shattered her dream with his own hands. She seemed to have lost her soul and lived her life like a living dead.
However, when she woke up from that state of numbness, everything cleared up in her head. Her husband and his concubine who only knew how to spend money were just leeches attached to her.
Lian Qian looked at the man indifferently and slowly said, “Go back to your courtyard and don’t appear in front of me. Just like in the past, we’ll mind our own business.”
The man was extremely angry. His dignity had been trampled to the ground by Lian Qian. He had to do something to gain his dignity as a man, so he glared at Lian Qian angrily and left, saying, “Just you wait..”
