Swing the sword at the future female devil

Chapter 415 Standards for a Future Daughter-in-Law
You've been tricked by the female demon, Xiao Jiang, you've won!
Looking at Xiao Xie's pure and beautiful face, Duan Huaige couldn't bear to blame her... Although it was always Xiao Xie who took the initiative to tease him and say she wanted to atone for her sins, and he had always said it wasn't necessary, but...

What bad intentions could my good sister possibly have? She just didn't want my soul to remain trapped in this cycle of suffering!

With the combined efforts of several young ladies, a delicious and visually appealing New Year's Eve dinner was finally prepared. As dusk fell, lights came on in every home, and the streets were decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, creating a peaceful and happy atmosphere of family reunion.

"Auntie, let me help you set the table!"

"No need, no need, let Huai Ge do it. He hasn't done anything all day!"

"Mom, what are you saying? I've been helping out the whole time. I even went out to buy things during the day." Duan Huaige replied, feigning displeasure. As she went to the kitchen to get the bowls and chopsticks, she discreetly slipped a note to Miss Yan Wang as she passed by.

Yan Qiuxi was slightly taken aback, but then she understood immediately. Without even looking at the note, she winked at Duan Huaige and secretly gave him an OK sign.

Duan Huaige: ?

What the heck?! Has our chemistry really gotten this good? We can practically read minds, right?
Oh no, tonight's New Year's Eve dinner is probably going to turn into a trap!

As the last dish was served by Yan Qiuxi, everyone took their seats, with Duan's parents as the main figures, arranged in order. Miss Shuangjiang, having gained favor with Duan's mother while washing and preparing the vegetables, sat to her right, while Xiao Jiang quickly grabbed the seat to her left.

They surrounded Duan's mother from the left and right, making her unable to move.

"The dishes are all ready, let's start eating~" Miss Yan smiled slightly and casually untied the apron she was wearing.

This small gesture made her appear regal and dignified, like a dutiful daughter-in-law greeting guests. However, even with King Yan's imposing presence, he was completely overshadowed by King Qin's domineering power.

"Ah, the hero of today's New Year's Eve dinner has arrived." Sitting next to Aunt Duan, Qin Shuangjiang said lightly, "Qiuqiu, after knowing you for so many years, this is the first time I've realized you have such strong cooking skills and interest in cooking."

In the blink of an eye, the power struggle had begun! The King of Qin's words were undoubtedly a veiled criticism of Yan Qiuxi for playing the innocent child in front of Aunt Duan. Two-faced!
I've never seen her cook before, so why is she suddenly interested in it here? I'm too embarrassed to point it out!

"I wouldn't dare," said Prince Yan humbly. "I'm just an assistant to my aunt. The real hero is my aunt."

"As for cooking, it's not always true that things are the way they are. I wasn't interested in cooking before because I hadn't met the right teacher. Now that I have an auntie, I've naturally become interested."

Qin Shuangjiang smiled slightly: "I see. I think so too. Just because something has always been this way doesn't necessarily mean it's right. Many things can change."

"Yes, but no matter how things change, the bond that brought us together today will never change!" Yan Qiuxi said leisurely, raising her glass.
"Come, everyone, I propose we raise a glass together to express our gratitude to the people who prepared this delicious meal tonight!"

"Okay, okay, cheers!"

Duan Ma couldn't stop smiling. The four young ladies in front of her were all beautiful and charming, each with their own unique qualities. They fulfilled all her fantasies about Ying Meng's virtuous daughter-in-law. How could she be dissatisfied with being able to spend the New Year with so many of Ying Meng's virtuous daughters-in-law at once?

It's such a pity. In the end, someone always has to be the loser. If only my Duan could work hard and win them all over, then I wouldn't have to see them heartbroken and crying.

Little Jiang, the Great Demon King, glanced at Qin Shuangjiang, then at King Yan, sensing that their whispered conversation wasn't as simple as it seemed. So, she quietly discussed it with her best friend Xie Cangling under the table on their phones: "Hey Cangling, what were they saying all that about? Were they arguing?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xie looked at Xiao Jiang with some surprise, thinking to himself, "I didn't expect you to be able to sense that something was wrong. Your skills have indeed improved."

But it's tough on you to play in these high-level matches. Don't worry, Xiyu, once I end this chaotic era and finish playing all the high-level matches, you won't have to play anymore.

The Tea Emperor transformed into the very essence of existence! He suppressed the darkness and chaos! All for the sake of leaving his beloved daughter a peaceful and tranquil single-line ending.

Xie Cangling cautiously typed a reply: "What they were just talking about wasn't cooking at all, but Huai Ge, the one who's the 'official'."

Qin Shuangjiang initiated the attack.

As Xie Cangling pointed out the secrets behind the open and covert battle, Little Jiang the Great Demon King suddenly understood and was secretly alarmed.

Those two tea-loving creatures are really inhuman. They speak like riddles. Luckily, I have Cangling here.
Hmm? Something's not right?

[Cangling, how can you understand their riddle-like conversation?]

【I don't know either, but isn't the meaning quite easy to guess?】

【.】

Am I the only one who ate this dish?
The atmosphere at the dinner table was harmonious, with everyone toasting and drinking glass after glass of juice. Yan Qiuxi's witty remarks made Duan's parents laugh heartily, while Qin Shuangjiang, relying on her precognitive memory, accurately grasped the personalities of Duan's parents, and for a time the two were evenly matched.

Little Jiang? Little Jiang is still gnawing on ribs!
Seeing that she couldn't completely overpower this troublesome guy, a cold glint flashed in Qin Shuangjiang's eyes. She glanced at Duan Huaige without making a sound, then pretended to accidentally drop her chopsticks on the table.

Throwing chopsticks is the signal!

Duan Huaige understood perfectly. Although he was in a difficult position, he could only trust that Xiao Jiang and Prince Yan could hold on.

After a brief pause, Duan Huaige feigned displeasure and said, "Mom, look at you, you've been so busy chatting with them that you've forgotten to serve your own son some food. Do you want them to call you 'Mom' too?"

"You silly child, why are you speaking such blunt truths?" Aunt Duan chuckled. "I do wish you were good enough for them, but how could you possibly be worthy of them? Look how beautiful and charming they are, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the line of men chasing after them could stretch from here to the Netherlands."

"Tch, I was just saying they weren't good enough for me~" Duan Huaige said deliberately, "Mom, I remember when you were little you told me that you had a standard for your future daughter-in-law, right? Do they really meet that standard?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Qiuxi and Xiao Xie immediately became serious, sensing the change in atmosphere. Even the most naive and innocent Xiao Jiang was stunned for a moment, quickly swallowing the rib in her mouth and listening carefully to what Duan Ma had to say next.

The standards for a future daughter-in-law? Is this finally going to be a bloody battle?
