Chapter 271: Pain Floated To The Surface Of His Heart

Ever since she woke up from the car accident, her attitude towards him changed completely. He still remembered at the time when she woke up, she suspected he was the main mastermind behind her freak car accident.

Only later did Song Jiumei admit that she was the one who orchestrated the incident. Was this the reason she thinks marrying him was a misfortune and not a blessing? Once the idea of her regretting being married to him entered his mind, a sharp persistent pain floated to the surface of his heart.

Two and a half hours later in the little western-style ranch house knowing that Song Wuyou and Gu Yanhao were coming, Mu Xin was as excited as the little lambs released from their confinements, welcoming them with enthusiasm. Mu Gu even prepared Beggar's Chicken when he knew they were coming over.

By the time Mu Xin finished bringing all the delicious things to the table, Mu Gu walked in carrying two still smoking Beggar's Chickens that were just dug up from the mud oven outside, releasing a tantalizing aroma that triggered their appetite.

Smelling this aroma, Song Wuyou's head immediately looked over towards Mu Gu who was walking in. His smile was bright, sunny, and dashing as he indirectly tried to avoid a direct line of sight with Song Wuyou.

"Ah Hao, Wuyou likes to eat Beggar's Chicken. Have you learned how to make it?"

"What's so delicious about a chicken?" His tone was laden with dissatisfaction. Who was this Mu Gu to know so well what his wife likes to eat, making Beggar's Chicken every time she comes around?

"Wuyou, come try it." Mu Gu put the casserole down, presenting two aromatic and beautifully cooked Beggar's Chickens before her eyes.

"It smells so good!" Song Wuyou leaned forward, almost drooling as she looked at the two chickens in the dish.

Mu Gu put on a pair of disposable gloves, reached out, and pulled off the drumstick, placing it into a round cake-like dish before passing it to Song Wuyou. Smiling at her, he said, "Here."

While Song Wuyou received the dish, the considerate Mu Xin quickly hand her a pair of chopsticks.

Song Wuyou smiled watching the brother-sister pair. Their warmth made her feel like a queen.

"Sis Wuyou, now that my brother not only rears sheep, he even started to rear chickens," Mu Xin gossiped about her brother as she tore off a chicken wing.

Mu Gu's eyes swept over his sister, but his hands did not stop. Pulling off the other drumstick, he gave it to Gu Yanhao, "Ah Hao, do you want to eat?" Mu Gu asked because Gu Yanhao had just sourly complained 'what's so delicious about a chicken?'

"Eat!" Gu Yanhao sullenly glared Mu Gu as he took the dish from his hand.

"The ranch is so big, rearing chickens is a good idea." Song Wuyou said.

"These two chickens ate grass and rice bran, not feeds, so eat your fill." Mu Xin added cheerfully.

After taking a bite, Song Wuyou commented, "It's very fragrant!" The texture was excellent. Truly, poultry reared by oneself was different. Because it was really delicious, Song Wuyou didn't bother to hold herself back, taking a few more bites in one go.
