Chapter 629: You have to apologize

This was the most popular temple near Northern City. There were many visitors every day, so a dining area for vegetarian meals was specially built.

There was only one grand hall, which had more than 20 tables. Everyone was treated equally in the hall. There were no private rooms, so the meals were the same.

The dishes were all vegetarian and not expensive.

However, it was also because of this that the diners were basically commoners or the madams and young ladies of small families.

Xi Rui and the other two sat at one table, while the maidservants and manservants sat at another.

"I heard that the vegetarian food in this temple is good. I just ordered all the dishes. Baili, Erlang, try it."

"It's just the three of us." Xiao Baili said with a smile. "Are we able to finish it?"

Although she was now a young lady of an official's family, she was still more diligent and thrifty and did not like to be wasteful.

Xiao Baili didn't know that this habit of hers had also made Madam Tu and several other ladies of the aristocratic families in Northern City secretly curse her for being petty.

Xi Rui used to like extravagance in the capital, but ever since he came to Northern City and spent a long time with Xiao Hanzheng's family, many of his habits had become the same as those of the Xiao family.

"I brought Great White with me," he said with a smile. "We'll give him whatever we can't finish. It's not a waste."

Great White was his goose, so he had to bring him along wherever he went. They had an especially close relationship.

Xiao Baili knew that Great White not only liked to eat human food but that he also had a huge appetite.

Thus, she nodded. "With Great White around, we don't have to worry about wasting it."

The food here is vegetarian, so they weren't afraid of Great White getting a stomachache.

Xi Rui's face was full of pride. "That's right. I'm definitely the best in this aspect."

In Shi Qingluo's words, his goose wasn't good at doing other things, but he was the best at eating.

However, even if he couldn't do anything else, he still liked his goose.

Their conversation was overheard by Tu Lihuan and the others who were walking over.

The few of them were speechless.

On one hand, they felt that Xiao Baili was too petty.

She was already a young lady of an official's family; her sister-in-law was a princess, and her future stepfather was a prince, but she was actually afraid of wasting food. Even if she ordered all the vegetarian food here, it would not cost much.

On the other hand, they felt that after he hung out with Shi Qingluo for so long, Xi Rui's actions were also difficult to explain in a few words.

He was clearly the most favored young master of the public administration house and the number one playboy in the capital, but now he was accompanying Xiao Hanzheng's younger brother and sister to this kind of embarrassing place for vegetarian food.

They had only come because they had to make Tu Lihuan look good. Otherwise, they wouldn't have chosen to dine in with a group of lowly commoners together.

Tu Lihuan looked at Xiao Baili and Xi Rui talking and laughing, and he felt a little displeased.

This woman was not only petty, but she was also eating and joking with a man outside. It was outrageous.
