Chapter 175 Are they really just friends?
Faced with Tiantian's willful and coquettish behavior, Yun Tingqing was helpless.
He had to carefully put Tiantian on the ground, fearing that any careless movement would make the little guy cry.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Tiantian's feet touched the ground, she quickly ran to Princess Jianing like a happy little rabbit, tightly holding the princess's white and slender fingers with her little hand, and without looking back, she pulled her towards home, muttering: "Sister Jianing, let's ignore that bad uncle and go to my house to play!"
Just like that, Tiantian completely ignored Yun Tingqing who was looking embarrassed and helpless behind her, and led Princess Jianing into the house.
Yun Tingqingzheng looked at Tiantian in front of him with a somewhat helpless look on his face. Tiantian was angry and her face was flushed red. He couldn't help but groan in his heart. He immediately realized that he must have said something wrong just now and made the little girl unhappy.
It seems that if I want to coax Tiantian this time, I will have to put in a lot of effort!
At this moment, everyone's attention was suddenly drawn to the door. Tiantian walked in with a beautiful woman about the same age as Yun Tingqing.
The woman had beautiful eyebrows and eyes, skin as white as snow, and the light blue dress made her figure even more graceful, like a fairy descending to earth.
Everyone in the Yun family looked up and down at the woman named Jianing with curiosity.
Tiantian, like a little host, excitedly introduced her to everyone, "This is Sister Jianing. Uncle San said she's his friend."
Hearing Tiantian's words, Old Lady Yun hurried forward and asked with a smile on her face, "Tiantian, where is your third uncle?" In fact, she was extremely anxious at the moment and wanted to rush to Yun Tingqing to find out clearly what the relationship between this Miss Jianing and her son was.
It would be great if she could really become my future daughter-in-law!
"Mom, I'm here." Yun Tingqing heard his mother calling him and quickly responded. Before he finished speaking, he had already walked quickly to the side of Old Lady Yun.
Old Lady Yun pulled Yun Tingqing aside and asked anxiously in a low voice, "Son, tell me quickly, what is your relationship with Jianing?"
Facing his mother's questioning, Yun Tingqing seemed very calm and answered simply and clearly: "Friend." After that, he smiled at his mother, and seemed not to intend to explain anything more.
Old Lady Yun stared at her son with suspicion, secretly pondering every word he said.
Based on her many years of experience in judging people, the girl named Jianing clearly had feelings for her son.
It's a pity that my son is as honest and simple as a wooden stake in daily life, and seems to be completely ignorant of matters of the heart.
At this time, Hua Niang came forward with a smile and said to Jianing affectionately: "Jianing, I am Tingqing's sister-in-law. You can follow Tingqing and call me sister-in-law."
As she spoke, she carefully examined the girl in front of her, the one Yun Tingqing had brought home for the first time. Seeing Jianing's pretty face and graceful manners, Hua Niang couldn't help but secretly wonder if this beautiful woman might become her sister-in-law in the future.
Thinking of this, the smile on Hua Niang's face became even gentler.
Hearing Hua Niang's passionate words, Jianing's cheeks flushed slightly, and she whispered shyly, "Sister-in-law..."
Seeing this, Hua Niang quickly reached out and took Jianing's hand, saying softly, "Jianing, don't be so reserved. We are a family that gets along well with each other. When you have time in the future, please come to our house more often and get closer to us."
After hearing this, Jianing nodded happily and said, "Okay!"
At this moment, she fell in love with Yun Tingqing's sister-in-law from the bottom of her heart. Hua Niang not only spoke softly and sweetly, but also gave people a warm and friendly feeling like a spring breeze, just like the sweet and lovable Tiantian, which made people want to get close to her.
It seems that this sweet and lovely appearance must be inherited from Hua Niang's personality.
"It's time to eat!" Xiangdong stood in the yard and shouted at the top of her lungs, her voice seemed to be able to penetrate the sky.
Immediately afterwards, a group of maids filed in, carefully holding a dish full of fragrant aroma, and walked towards the dining hall with light steps.
Princess Jianing twitched her nose slightly and sniffed the tempting scent that permeated the air.
She was secretly amazed in her heart. She never expected that the Yun family's cook had such superb cooking skills and could cook such fragrant and mouth-watering food.
For a moment, her curiosity was completely aroused, and she couldn't wait to try what was so special about these delicious dishes.
Just then, the family came to the dinner table one after another and sat down.
Yun Tingqing smiled and was the first to speak to Xiangdong, "Second sister-in-law, you've worked so hard!"
Hearing this, Xiangdong quickly waved her hands and responded with a smile, "Hey, we're family, so let's not be so divisive. As long as you enjoy your meal, my hard work doesn't matter!"
Princess Jianing stared at the table full of sumptuous dishes with wide eyes in disbelief. She asked in surprise, "Are these dishes... all made by you, my second sister-in-law?"
She originally thought that these delicious dishes were all cooked by the skilled cook of the Yun family, but when she learned that they were cooked by the gentle and virtuous second sister-in-law in front of her, she was really surprised and delighted.
Yun Tingqing nodded and patiently explained to Princess Jianing, "Yes, these were all cooked by my second sister-in-law herself. Besides, she runs a thriving restaurant back home! So, her cooking skills are naturally impeccable!"
Xiangdong watched the warm and harmonious interaction between Yun Tingqing and Jianing with a smile on her face.
When she clearly heard Jianing calling her "Second Sister-in-law", she couldn't help but think to herself: It seems that the relationship between these two is progressing rapidly. I guess it won't be long before I can welcome my third sister-in-law!
Thinking of this, the smile on Xiangdong's face became more friendly and kind.
She turned her head gently to look at Jianing and whispered softly, "Jianing, come and try these dishes made by my second sister-in-law and see if they suit your taste."
After saying that, Xiangdong looked at Jianing expectantly, as if eager to get a response from her.
Because if even Jianing, who was born and raised in the capital, can praise the dishes she cooks, then it may mean that her long-planned restaurant plan has the hope of expanding to the prosperous and bustling capital.
