"No?" Meng Yunzheng chuckled lightly, "Then why did you have a midnight snack at the second quarter of the Xu hour yesterday? Did you suddenly get hungry or crave something?"
Scholar Chen slowly regained his composure under Meng Yunzheng's calm yet indifferent expression. He swallowed and thought for a moment before saying, "Perhaps, I didn't eat much during dinner."
"Why didn't you eat much?"
"Because, because Aunt Jiang's cooking last night was too bland." Aunt Jiang is the old woman who helps with cooking at the Chen family's house.
Meng Yunzheng hadn't finished asking, "Since that lady has worked in your house for many years, she should know what your father likes to eat. How could the dishes suddenly not suit his taste?"
"I, I don't know."
Meng Yunzheng looked up at Lord Xie, who blinked and suddenly realized, immediately instructing the constables, "Go, bring Old Lady Jiang here."
"Yes, Lord."
