"Exactly, Grandpa's wine is too delicious!" The Seven Fairies also nodded in agreement.
"Do you like it?"
"We do!"
"If you like it, then come here often to drink! Hahaha!" Zhang Yifan laughed heartily.
"That's a given, hee hee hee." The Seven Fairies beamed, as if it would be strange not to live here from now on!
"Come, eat the dishes."
Zhang Yifan gestured for everyone to take food.
"Let me try this one." The Third Fairy picked up an egg with her chopsticks and ate it.
As soon as the egg entered her mouth, the Third Fairy's eyes widened, shining brightly.
Then, then, she completely abandoned her ladylike demeanor. Her chopsticks pecked at the eggs like a little chick pecking at rice, dada da, very quickly. Her mouth was too full, yet she still stuffed more in with all her might.
Seeing their Third Sister and Third Sister act like this, how could the other Six Fairy Princesses wait? They also started grabbing dishes.
"Ah, eat slower, everyone~"
Seeing his granddaughters eating as if they hadn't eaten in days, all scrambling for food, Zhang Yifan, afraid they would choke, urged them to slow down.
But these fairies, how could they hear him?
At this moment, their eyes were only on the food on the table!
Seeing his daughters being so impolite, the Jade Emperor's mouth twitched. He immediately picked up his chopsticks and joined the fray.
Seeing this, the Queen Mother was not to be outdone. Her chopsticks swept across the dishes like sword shadows, shua shua shua. Her speed was like a machine gun, only afterimages could be seen.
Little master, there's more to this chapter, please click next page to continue reading, it's even more exciting!
What the!
In the night breeze, Zhang Yifan was a bit bewildered.
No way?
What's going on?
Why is everyone eating like starving ghosts?
Haven't they eaten in months?
Why are they all scrambling like this?
Look at Queen Mother's daughter-in-law, why is she still licking the plates? She licked them cleaner than washing them! This behavior is completely inconsistent with the aura she had when I first saw her.
And those Seven Beautiful Granddaughters, why are they all imitating their mother, also licking plates, sticking their tongues out so long, even licking their sisters' plates.
One well-behaved granddaughter even licked the soup spilled on the table, her little tongue lapping it up bite by bite.
Tsk tsk tsk, this scene is unbearable to look at.
But it's good, if they wash the dishes at night, it will save some trouble.
Bah!
If they don't wash them clean, won't the plates be covered in the saliva of those mothers and daughters?
In less than two minutes. A table full of dishes was snatched up by Jade Emperor, Queen Mother, Seven Fairies and their group.
Not even a grain of rice was left.
"Sigh." Seeing this scene, Zhang Yifan couldn't help but sigh.
"What's wrong, Father?" Jade Emperor was still unsatisfied with the meal. He believed that after eating two more meals, his cultivation would surely break through to the late Quasi-Saint stage, and he was very excited.
"What's wrong? Stand up."
Zhang Yifan's eyes were filled with anger as he pointed at Jade Emperor, telling him to stand up.
Jade Emperor stood up when he heard that.
As soon as he stood up, Zhang Yifan kicked him over.
This kick was not light, sending Jade Emperor face-first onto the ground.
Jade Emperor was a bit dazed, thinking that he had eaten too quickly and hadn't left any for Zhang Yifan, which made him angry.
"Sorry, Father, I ate too quickly and didn't leave any for you."
"Didn't leave any for me? Is that the reason!"
"Then what is it, Father?"
"What do you mean, what is it! How can you be this kind of husband, huh, how can you be this kind of father! Look at your wife and your daughters, how starved they are! Huh!"
Zhang Yifan's anger did not diminish, he pointed at Jade Emperor's nose and cursed: "Look at them, starving like hungry ghosts who haven't eaten in months. Are you a poor man? Can't even afford to eat? Huh!"
"Ah, this!"
Jade Emperor didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He thought it was something that made the old man fly into a rage.
It turned out that Zhang Yifan thought they never had enough to eat on a daily basis because of Queen Mother and her daughters' ravenous eating.
Just kidding!
How could the dignified Queen Mother, the Jade Emperor's daughter, not have food to eat!
She could have whatever she wanted!
But no matter how delicious the delicacies of the Heavenly Court were, they couldn't compare to the rice dregs in Grandpa's bowl!
The Queen Mother and the Fairy Ladies were startled at first, but after hearing Zhang Yifan say this, they all relaxed, and their hearts felt even warmer.
So Grandpa was worried about them!
Seeing the dignified Heavenly Emperor, Haotian Shangdi, kicked over by Zhang Yifan and scolded to his face, the Seven Fairies couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh.
This heartwarming scene had never been seen in millions of years.
"Grandpa, you misunderstood."
"Yes, Grandpa, you misunderstood."
The Queen Mother and the Fairy Ladies also stepped forward to persuade him.
"It's Grandpa's cooking that's too delicious, too exquisite. Just smelling it makes my mouth water, and once I start eating, I can't stop. My hands and feet wouldn't listen to me; they just kept wanting to eat."
The Seven Fairies spoke up to help their father, the Jade Emperor.
"Yes, Grandpa, it's really too delicious. Your cooking is amazing, Grandpa, that's why we couldn't help ourselves and couldn't stop," the Queen Mother added.
"Really?"
"Really!"
"That's good then." Zhang Yifan's anger subsided. He then pointed at the Jade Emperor and said to his granddaughters, "If your father doesn't feed you enough to eat and drink in the future, tell Grandpa, and I'll spank his butt!"
"Okay, Grandpa! Hee hee hee!"
The Seven Fairies giggled.
Only the Jade Emperor was a bit bewildered in the night breeze.
Who am I, where am I, am I still the Jade Emperor? Do I have any dignity as the Heavenly Emperor left? The Jade Emperor felt like crying but had no tears.
Afterward, Zhang Yifan tidied up the bowls and chopsticks and then made a few more small dishes.
This time, the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother behaved themselves.
The Fairy Ladies, however, did not eat anymore. They all knew those were Grandpa's snacks to go with drinks, and they couldn't snatch them anymore.
The Seven Fairy Princesses also ran to the big tree in the courtyard to play with the birds.
"Mm, yes, that's right, went to tease birds~"
Chapter 8: In the Heavenly Court, Even Saints Dare Not Be Presumptuous
After finishing dinner, the family chatted for a while.
Zhang Yifan went to fetch water.
After so many years, he had long been accustomed to sleeping early and waking early.
At this point, it was time to bathe, wash his feet, and go to sleep.
Zhang Yifan's courtyard was not small, but it wasn't large either, and there weren't enough rooms.
Looking at the seven granddaughters and his son and daughter-in-law before him, Zhang Yifan was a little troubled.
"The rooms are a bit small. Tonight, my granddaughters will have to work hard and squeeze onto two beds."
"Don't worry, Grandpa. We usually like to sleep together anyway. Younger Sisters, don't you agree?" Eldest Fairy Princess Tianshou immediately jumped out to ease the situation.
"Yes, yes, Grandpa. We've endured all sorts of hardships. Squeezing together to sleep will only strengthen our sisterly bond." Several Fairy Princesses also chimed in.
Seeing that his daughters, who were usually the most picky, said this, the Jade Emperor secretly admired his father's prowess, having tamed these little girls so obediently.
In the past, if there was only one bed, these Seven Girls would have surely fought fiercely, with only the winner getting the bed.
"Father, don't worry. After some time, I'll call a group of people to build more houses. That way, we'll have enough space to live in later." The Jade Emperor also seized the opportunity to speak, taking on the task of expanding the houses.
What a joke.
How could such a good opportunity be missed?
Bringing people to build houses meant they would have to eat, right?
And eating would increase their cultivation!
This was a task that even those Heavenly Gods would break their heads to compete for.
"Alright, your father has been living a carefree life these past few years and doesn't have much money, but take this one hundred taels of gold. You must not let our construction brothers suffer!"
Seeing that the Jade Emperor had agreed, Zhang Yifan was not polite. He then went into the inner room and took out one hundred taels of gold to hand to him.
"Oh wow, Old Father, you're quite wealthy."
The Jade Emperor took the hundred taels of gold, surprised. He hadn't expected this. His father lived in such a modest farmhouse, appearing to be a poor farmer, yet he was so rich, producing one hundred taels of gold at once.
