Chapter 176 The Hardworking Eldest Daughter 35
Chapter 176 The Hardworking Eldest Daughter 35
Wen Nuan was really amused by the old couple. It is true that having an old person in the family is like having a treasure. These two old people are very honest.
"Grandpa, I'm not hungry. Take your time."
"Grandpa, uncle, thank you for your hard work."
The old man can dislike it, but she, a young man, can do it, although this is just a carrot and a date~hahaha...
"Xiao Nuan, there's a lot of smoke in the kitchen, go sit down and take a rest~"
Pei Hongxing had been scolded by his father and had been keeping his head down, but when he suddenly heard his future daughter-in-law mention him, he instantly became energetic, and his eight big white teeth shone neatly.
"Hey~ What's the hard work for this kid~"
"You guys go take a rest~"
The old man glanced at his eldest son with disdain and automatically blocked out the words "Uncle, you have worked hard."
The granddaughter-in-law was talking about this old man, but he is not an unfilial person.
"Grandpa, let me help you."
While he was talking, Pei Dongfang also parked the car and came in, automatically going into the kitchen to take over his father's work.
Pei Hongxing's eyes were almost shining with gratitude. This son was not born in vain. He knew how to help his father out since he was young.
"Okay, okay, let's go out."
"Let them do the work."
The old lady then took Wen Nuan's hand again and happily pulled him to the sofa in the living room.
"Xiao Nuan, come, eat an orange to moisten your throat."
As soon as Wen Nuan sat down, an orange was stuffed into her palm, and it was already peeled.
Looking up at the concerned look on her future mother-in-law's face, she agreed with a warm smile.
I thought both parties would be somewhat reserved when meeting for the first time, but the scenes that Wen Nuan expected did not exist at all.
The old lady and her future mother-in-law sang in unison, and the atmosphere was not dull at all.
Wen Nuan mostly just listened and occasionally answered a sentence or two. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law acted like supporting actors and praised Wen Nuan to the sky.
To be praised like this in person, even someone as thick-skinned as Wen Nuan would find it hard to bear.
Moreover, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were quite tactful. They never mentioned her original family at all. They mostly talked about her work, how excellent she was, and how beautiful she was.
Oh my, this is truly unique, the Dongfang family is so lucky.
Halfway through her words, the old lady took out a piece of cloth from her bosom. When she saw the cloth, Wen Nuan felt inexplicably familiar. This old lady's habits were exactly the same as hers.
The only difference is that she used cloth to hold the ginseng, while the old lady's cloth was a bracelet made entirely of jasper.
"Come on, Xiao Nuan, grandma likes you, put it on."
"Oh, it looks so good on our Xiao Nuan."
The old lady was quick-witted and put the bracelet on Wen Nuan's hand without saying anything.
It is crystal clear without any impurities, and it is obviously top-grade jade at first glance.
Suddenly, there was an object on Wen Nuan's wrist. With her sharp eyesight, she could tell the quality of the bracelet at a glance.
"Grandma, this is too expensive."
One still has to be reserved. You can't just accept something as soon as it's given to you. Wen Nuan pretended to take off the bracelet, albeit just for show.
Since everyone has taken a fancy to her, they will be a family sooner or later. It’s okay to collect some things, but she can’t be looked down upon. It’s not like she hasn’t seen good things before. She has a lot of them in her space.
However, in ancient times, the emperor had to go through three persuasions and three concessions before he could ascend the throne. We still have to go through this process again.
"Xiao Nuan, if you don't accept it, it means you don't like grandma anymore."
"Grandma is so sad~"
Hey~ This old lady, while holding down the warm hand to prevent her from taking it, was also feeling hurt.
She is really an old child, an old child who needs someone to coax her. Wen Nuan is both amusing and helpless.
"Grandma, I love you."
"Hey, grandma likes Xiao Nuan too~"
When the old lady heard Wen Nuan's statement, she no longer looked sad at all and her face became radiant.
"Mom, so you prepared a gift secretly and didn't tell me."
"Fortunately, I was prepared."
The future mother-in-law pretended to be jealous, but she quickly took out a piece of cloth from her bosom.
Seeing this situation, Wen Nuan couldn't help but twitch her eyes. It's true that people from the same family are alike.
"Come on, Xiao Nuan, put it on."
In the blink of an eye, a big gold bracelet was put on Wen Nuan's other hand. Wow! It was so golden and shining!
"Aunt……"
Wen Nuan was about to say something when her future mother-in-law held her hand.
Okay, take them all.
There are only two hands in total, and neither of them is idle.
But in the end, Wen Nuan still took off the two bracelets and put them in her pocket. There was no other way, they were too eye-catching.
What's more, she was wearing a police uniform, what a shame.
Nowadays, if you wear this thing when you go out, you will definitely be noticed, so every household keeps it secret.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are also well aware of the importance of this. As long as the granddaughter-in-law (daughter-in-law) accepts it, it's fine.
As long as you accept it, it will be almost correct.
Wen Nuan has also gone through this era, so she naturally understands the twists and turns involved. Since she accepted it, it means she has nodded.
"It's time to eat~"
As a burst of fragrant aroma wafted over, the old man's loud voice rang out in the living room.
The group then took their seats, with the old man sitting at the main seat, the old lady on his right, Wen Nuan sitting on the left side of the old man, Pei Dongfang next to Wen Nuan, and her future father-in-law sitting at the farthest position from the old man.
The family status is evident.
There was a table full of things flying in the sky and swimming in the water, and a large porcelain cup was placed in the center.
"Come on, Xiao Nuan, have a bowl of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall to nourish your stomach first."
"You have to work hard, Dongfang, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and give Xiao Nuansheng to you."
At the old man's call, Pei Dongfang quickly and skillfully filled a bowl and placed it in front of Wen Nuan.
Sea cucumber, abalone, shark fin...
Wen Nuan took a quick look and saw that they were all top-quality ingredients. The fragrance was so good that even a Buddha would jump over the wall.
After taking a sip of the soup, my eyes suddenly lit up with warmth.
"Grandpa, great skills!"
Wen Nuan gave the old man a thumbs up without hesitation. She was tired of eating this when she was in the palace, but now after tasting the old man's cooking, she was really disappointed. How could the ancient imperial chefs not be as good as the inheritance of later generations?
Well, it may also depend on people’s understanding…
However, if these ingredients are very common in modern times, nowadays, if you don’t have connections, you can’t buy them even if you have money.
"Hahaha~ Xiao Nuan likes it. Grandpa will make it for you later."
"Dongfang, you need to work harder..."
"Otherwise, how can I take good care of Xiao Nuan in the future~"
The old man looked very proud and did not forget to step on his eldest grandson. It was obvious that Pei Dongfang's skill in this field was not up to par.
Pei Dongfang whispered to Wen Nuan embarrassedly that he really hadn't mastered the skill of cooking Buddha Jumps Over the Wall yet, and he would work harder in the future.
The old man has been preparing this for some time, and has been looking for ingredients since he knew that the man had a girlfriend.
My hands paused while I drank the warm soup, and my heart felt warm...
