Chapter 401: Now This Is What Eating Properly Looks Like! (Please Subscribe!!)

After hearing Jiang Yan's words, Little Ningguang and the other two little ones, along with Ayaka, quickly took their seats.

"Alright, eat quickly."

After serving each of the four a bowl of egg noodles, Jiang Yan said to them with a smile.

As soon as they started eating, the difference in how the four children ate became obvious.

Little Ayaka sat up straight and proper, eating with slow, deliberate movements, chewing carefully and savoring every bite.

Clearly starving, yet she still had to maintain her elegance.

Sometimes, maintaining elegance is a very tiring thing.

Look at Little Ningguang and the other two little ones beside her.

Since Jiang Yan never restricted them on matters of dining etiquette, they appeared much more carefree.

Eat whatever they wanted, pick up whatever they wanted.

Even Jiang Yan held his rice bowl, slurping noodles while picking up vegetables, devouring everything like a storm sweeping away debris.

Although they were eating the same food, Little Ayaka still felt that Little Ningguang and the others ate with more relish.

Chewing slowly and carefully certainly looks elegant and proper.

But only eating freely and without restraint can truly bring the joy of eating.

She wanted to eat freely and without restraint like Little Ningguang and the others.

But she was still a bit afraid.

After all, she had never tried this before.

What if Big Brother scolded her?

Remembering how she had once been hit three times with a ruler by her teacher just for trying to stand up to reach some food she couldn't pick up.

Little Ayaka shrank her neck back in fear.

"Mm... what's wrong?"

With his mouth full of noodles, Jiang Yan looked at the little girl in front of him, who looked hesitant, and felt somewhat puzzled.

"Is the food not to your taste?"

"No, the food Big Brother made is delicious!"

Little Ayaka hurriedly said, glancing at Little Ningguang and the others, an expression of longing unconsciously appearing on her face.

Jiang Yan looked at Little Ningguang and the other two little ones, then looked at Ayaka.

He seemed to understand something.

"Little Ayaka, do whatever you want to do."

Swallowing the noodles in his mouth, Jiang Yan said with a smile.

"This is Liyue, and your identity is not that of the Young Lady of the Kamisato Clan in Inazuma."

"There is no need to maintain so-called noble etiquette."

"Here, you have only one identity."

"That is Kamisato Ayaka."

"Not the Young Lady of the Kamisato Clan."

"Eat. In Big Brother's house, there is only one rule."

"When eating, you must eat happily and comfortably!"

"Only then will you have the motivation to tackle the tasks ahead, right?"

Jiang Yan's casual words caused a surge of emotion in Little Ayaka's heart.

All along, the teachers at home had told her what she could do and what she could not do.

It seemed no one truly cared whether she was happy or comfortable.

Little Ayaka was very tempted.

Now, she wanted to temporarily shed the identity of the Young Lady of the Kamisato Clan and be her free and spontaneous self!

She picked up her chopsticks, imitated Jiang Yan's manner, lifted the noodles, and took a big bite.

Feeling the oily fragrance of the noodles filling her mouth, Little Ayaka felt that the taste seemed somehow different.

But it also seemed to be the same noodles.

Perhaps, after breaking through the restrictions, the novelty made the noodles in her mouth taste different as well.

Afterwards, she imitated Little Ningguang and the others, reached out, grabbed a preserved meat wotou, and began to swallow it in big mouthfuls.

From time to time, she stuffed in a couple more mouthfuls of noodles.

So refreshing!

This is much more refreshing than eating by chewing slowly and carefully!

Little Ayaka's eyes sparkled, looking extremely happy.

"Now this is what eating properly looks like!"

Jiang Yan laughed heartily, then picked up a wotou himself and began to eat it in big mouthfuls.

After the pleasant dinner ended, Beidou and Shenhe, as usual, took on the task of washing the dishes.

Little Ningguang carefully packed up the portion of food Jiang Yan had set aside for Ganyu.

Little Ayaka, looking quite casual, lay back in her chair, constantly stroking her slightly distended little belly.

Just after breaking through the restrictions, Little Ayaka clearly couldn't hold back and ate a bit too much.

But she was happy; eating like this was truly joyful.

She kept swinging her little white legs, enjoying this rare moment of freedom.

If her group of teachers saw this, they would absolutely subject her to three strikes of the ruler again.

But unfortunately, this is Jiang Yan's home, and Jiang Yan himself is lying on a chair like a salted fish, burping.

After all, since the three little ones have taken on the tasks, he naturally has become idle.

A disciple helping their Master with household chores; Jiang Yan felt there was nothing wrong with that.

On the contrary, he strongly approved!

After all, he is very lazy.

By the way, Little Ningguang and the other two have already started preparing to learn Immortal Arts and martial arts from him; shouldn't he find some suitable weapons for them?
