Raelle didn't like talking about the hard times so most people easily forgot. Even Shui Xian momentarily forgot that she didn't have smooth sailing in life. Yes, Mu Chenyan and Grandfather Xiang must have done everything to feed her all the treasures of mountains and seas. But some things weren't in their control.
Like the time she was kidnapped.
During those times, what did she eat? Or did she eat at all or not? Anyone with a brain could know the answer to those questions. How could kidnappers be kind enough to offer a proper meal?
So, she was right. This wasn't the most humble meal of her life. It was at least a proper meal made with care. She wasn't treated as an animal and was thrown some dry food to munch on.
