Mrs. He smiled and said, "Then I am in for a treat. Let's go to the dining room."
　　He Yunchen followed Mrs. He to the dining room with a bag of spicy dried meat. There were already three dishes and a soup on the table. Although the portions were not large, everything was exquisite. The cups and plates used were even handed down from the previous dynasty's court and were priceless.
　　After washing their hands, the mother and son sat opposite each other. The maid carefully opened the oil paper bag and poured the dried meat into the plate.
　　He Yunchen had eaten this spicy dried meat before, and he knew that Mrs. He had a strong taste and would definitely like it.
　　Sure enough, when Mrs. He smelled the spicy and fresh aroma, she was immediately attracted and couldn't help but smell it again. She felt her mouth watering and an appetite that she hadn't had for a long time came up.
　　Since the death of her husband and eldest son, she has lived a semi-secluded life, eating vegetarian food, chanting Buddhist scriptures and praying for the He family. Her diet has become increasingly plain. Although the doctor said that she should eat more meat to replenish her body, she has no appetite for the meals prepared in the big kitchen or small kitchen in the mansion.
　　"What is this food called? It looks strange."
　　He Yunchen helped to set the dishes and handed over the chopsticks. "It's spicy pork jerky, made of pork."
　　Mrs. He smiled and said, "This is a good name, concise and clear."
　　She picked up a piece of dried meat with chopsticks, put it in her mouth and tasted it slowly. She felt that the spicy, salty and numb taste was just right. Although it was called dried meat, it was not difficult to chew, but very chewy. The more she chewed, the more fragrant it became. There was a hint of sweetness in the aftertaste, mixed with the fragrance of sesame and other seasonings that she couldn't name.
　　He Yunchen asked casually: "How?"
　　Madam He glanced at him, pretending not to notice his look of seeking credit, and nodded, "Mm, it smells good, suitable as a snack or as a side dish for drinking. I think your grandfather and maternal grandfather will like it."
　　He Yunchen was satisfied and started to eat quietly with Mrs. He.
　　After dinner, the two went to the main courtyard. When Mrs. He saw him coming, she pretended to be sick.
　　She had a headband wrapped around her head and leaned against the headboard, sighing and crying, saying that she was sorry to the ancestors of the He family.
　　General He couldn't do anything to her, so he hid in another room early. Only He Yunchen's aunt and cousin were standing by.
　　He Yunchen has been back for so long that he has developed an indifferent attitude towards fame and fortune. No matter how others try to persuade him, he will not give in.
　　Old Madam He took the snake-head stick at the bedside and hit his leg, and He Yunchen quickly took two steps back.
The old lady angrily scolded, "Are you worthy of your dead father and brother? If you don't get married, do you want to watch me die without having a great-grandson? You rebellious grandson!"
　　Several female relatives were in a dilemma. After persuading the old lady, they came to persuade He Yunchen.
　　Auntie said, "Yun Chen, you are already twenty-two years old, it is impossible for you to stay single for your whole life, right?"
