Chapter 441 I'm waiting for you

Early in the morning, Yun Ci walked into the basement carrying a lunch box.

In the cage, little Dongtang Chi You was curled up in the corner. Hearing the familiar footsteps, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Chao Yunci with shining eyes, his brows curved into crescents with anticipation, as if he had been prepared to wait for her for a long time.

Yun Ci's footsteps became heavier.

I had promised to help him find his parents, but now how should I tell him that his parents are dead, and in such a cruel and painful way.

Entering the cage, Yun Ci squatted in front of Dongtang Chiyou, looking into the boy's clear and pure eyes, she decided to hide it for the time being.

After taking out the food, Yun Ci stuffed another egg into Dongtang Chiyou's pocket while no one was paying attention.

During this period, every time she came to deliver meals, she would hide some delicious and nutritious food and secretly bring it to Dongtang Chiyou. Within a few days, his thin little face gained a little flesh and he was no longer as frail as before.

Yun Ci had inquired from Zhizhi. The people of Zhao State were few in number and lived in a remote corner of Dongzhou. Most of them were gentle and kind-hearted and only wanted a stable life, so they never got involved in the affairs of the outside world. They had special blood, but were naturally thin, so when the three countries united to deal with them, they had no ability to fight back.

Dongtang Chiyou peeled the egg, divided it in half, and handed it to Yunci. With expectation in his wet eyes, he said softly: "Let's eat together..."

Yun Ci was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "I've eaten, you should eat now."

Dong Tang Chiyou lowered his eyes dejectedly and ate the eggs in small bites.

Yun Ci quickened her hands to change the dressing and treat his wound. When she was ready to leave, her sleeve was suddenly grabbed. She turned around and saw Dong Tang Chi You with innocent eyes like a deer, smiling shyly: "I'll wait for you..."

"Okay." Yun Ci patted his head and walked out of the cage.

Back in the kitchen, Butler Luo brought the menu for today's lunch. What food needs to be prepared every day is based on the menu. Yun Ci sneaked out before and found that the three kings Li, Jiang, and Ming all lived in Qianshuiyuan. There would be a kitchen in Qianshuiyuan to prepare food. Some officers and subordinates lived in Zitengyuan here, and the food they prepared every day was also for them.

Xiaoqing was cooking soup. After a few minutes, she turned off the fire and placed the steaming soup aside. Several little girls turned up their noses and couldn't help but admire it.

Zhizhi also moved closer to Yunci and whispered, "It smells so good. I really want to try Xiaoqing's soup."

Their daily meals are simple, and it is normal to feel greedy every time they prepare food for those important people.

Yun Ci glanced towards Xiaoqing and said nothing.

Xiaoqing was holding her neck high with pride, chatting with other little girls.

"My ancestors have been chefs for three generations and have won many awards. I have inherited my father's skills. My father's soup is also unique. I will ask him to make it for you to taste if there is a chance."

After saying that, the kitchen suddenly fell into silence.

Each of them is a good kid at home, but now they are forced to do hard labor here, and they don’t know when they can go home!

The food is ready.

Xiaoqing was about to put the soup in the lunch box. Yun Ci happened to be standing nearby. She glanced casually into the soup and discovered something was wrong. She narrowed her sharp eyes slightly, a light flashed in her brain, and then she grabbed Xiaoqing's wrist.
