"Why aren't you eating, child?" the woman asked Xiao Jinxing, seemingly noticing his unease.
"He's shy around strangers," Ye Qichi quickly explained.
Xiao Jinxing threw him a look.
Ye Qichi acted as if he hadn't seen it.
She picked up some vegetables and held them to Xiao Jinxing's mouth, "Be good, open up."
Xiao Jinxing looked at Ye Qichi coldly.
Ye Qichi smiled radiantly.
His eyes told Xiao Jinxing that it was good enough that someone was willing to take them in, so don't be picky.
Xiao Jinxing pursed his lips and then opened his mouth.
The bland dish didn't taste very good, but at that moment, it seemed to suddenly stimulate his taste buds.
"Have some porridge," Ye Qichi reminded.
Xiao Jinxing took a sip of porridge.
Then, he began to eat.
Ye Qichi watched Xiao Jinxing eat and couldn't help but find it amusing.
They should have let this guy, no, let the royal ministers, really get to know the common people's hardships.
