Chapter 52 Roping “Maternal Grandmother [Waipo] in to Deal with Stepmother [2], Part 2
When Duke Yingguo furen saw that Zi You didn’t go to visit Wang Yiping’s lowly, cheap yiniang and rather accompany her, immediately pretended to smile lovingly . “You’er, eat some grapes . They’re sweet and fragrant . Very delicious . ”
Zi You picked up a bunch of grapes . While eating, she pretended to be a naïve and innocent child and asked, “Waipo likes eating grapes? Then do you like eating other fruits?”
Duke Yingguo furen looked and smiled at Zi You . “I like . But my teeth aren’t good . I can’t eat a lot of fruits . ”
Zi You immediately said, “Really? Then the gifts I gave Waipo are appropriate . The moon cakes I made are filled with fruit puree . There’s cantaloupe, grape, pineapple, and jujube paste fillings . I was afraid Waipo doesn’t like to eat sweet things so the taste is very light . If Waipo doesn’t believe, go taste them . You will certainly like eating them . ”
Duke Yingguo furen naturally said with great interest, “Oh? Then Waipo will taste You’er’s handiwork . ”
Zi You immediately jumped from her chair and retrieved pineapple-stuffed moon cakes from the piles of gifts . She gave it to Duke Yingguo furen and smiled sweetly . “Waipo, this is pineapple filling . You want to try it?”
Duke Yingguo furen took the moon cake and took bites . Who knew that she couldn’t stop with one mouthful . She ate the whole piece of moon cake .
The moon cake’s pineapple favor was strong . It was sweet but not greasy; soft and delicate . It melted in the mouth and was very delicious . It was many more times delicious than the moon cakes made in her house .
Wishing to continue eating, she asked, “You made these moon cakes? Then what did your mother prepare?”
Zi You sighed and pretended to be ignorant . “Mother’s health isn’t good . The doctor said something about whatever kidney deficiency and overdoing whatever bedroom matters . Daughter guesses that the first household was too busy so mother is overworked . So Aunt and I prepared the gifts for Waipo and Waigong [maternal grandfather] . Waipo, if you don’t like the gifts, please forgive us . ”
