Chapter 101: Don't bother
When people are old, they want their children and grandchildren to be by their side, and Mrs. Xu is no exception. Although he knew that the contradictions between Xu Sangyu and his son and daughter-in-law had been irreconcilable for a long time, he still hoped that it could be eased, and Xu Sangyu could come back to see more.
Of course, this is not just for herself, but more for Xu Sangyu, how can a person really have no home and no relatives, even if Jin Junting treats her well, she can't withstand the affection of her parents.
Mrs. Xu wants Xu Sangyu to be a normal child with a family and parents.
This time, it was not easy for Xu Jiaqian to take the initiative to show favor to Xu Sangyu, no matter what his motives were, Mrs. Xu hoped that the relationship between their father and daughter could be eased a little.
I don't know what's going on with today's dinner, the table is sweet and sour, she looks at it with a toothache, no wonder Xu Sangyu refuses to eat.
Mrs. Xu waved her hand anxiously, "Go, let Lao Liu fry a few good Sichuan dishes." β
Lao Liu, the back kitchen, is from Sichuan, and a few Sichuan dishes can't bother him.
But the servant who was standing in front of him and waiting, raised his eyes and looked at Xu Jiaqian carefully, and stopped talking.
"What's going on?"
Mrs. Xu looked at Xu Jiaqian, and her eyes were a little more cold.
The maid glanced at Xu Jiaqian quietly, lowered his head and said nothing.
"I gave the back kitchen a holiday. Xu Jiaqian scratched his forehead with his index finger, and he was also very helpless, "Aren't I thinking about cooking myself and cooking a few specialty dishes for Sangyu?"
Who knew that this dead girl was so difficult to serve, she didn't eat this, she didn't eat that, and she was committed to doing it against him! If Xu Wanting knew her hard work, even if she didn't like to eat and endure it, she would finish this meal, and she would never let him not get off the stage.
Not sensible! It's so ignorant! That's not wrong at all, it's really his nemesis.
Xu Jiaqian's eyes crossed a dark light, but he still had to pretend to be a loving father on his face to Jin Junting, he tried to lower his posture, and said softly to Xu Sangyu: "Whatever you want to eat, Dad will make it for you." β
Xu Sangyu poked the rice in the bowl, and said without raising his head: "The rice is very good." β
Xu Jiaqian's face sank, and he had to forcibly suppress it in front of Jin Junting, "Look at what you said, it's rare to go home, how can you just eat rice?"
Xu Sangyu lowered his head and casually put rice in his mouth, but ignored Xu Jiaqian.
The casual attitude made Xu Jiaqian want to flip the table several times.
Xu Wanting, who was sitting next to Xu Jiaqian, felt the cold air faintly overflowing from her father's body, and she was so frightened that she didn't dare to come out.
Chen Mingliang was also preoccupied, hanging his head and not saying a word.
Xu Sangyu didn't speak, Jin Junting didn't make a sound, she ate rice, he accompanied her to eat rice, and the two of them ate a bowl of rice leisurely, like a delicacy in the world.
Xu Jiaqian was left to the side, which was particularly embarrassing.
The maid on the side said boldly: "I have a hot sauce sent from home, and the rice is first-class, do you want to try it?"
Xu Sangyu raised his head with interest, "Your home in Sichuan?"
"Yes, my family is from Guang'an, Sichuan. β
Mrs. Xu saw that there was a play, and hurriedly said: "Go and get it, I'll try it too." β
The maid answered the call and trotted back to the rest of his place, and soon came back with two cans of homemade hot sauce, which were packed in glass bottles.
Xu Sangyu and the hot sauce ate half a bowl of rice more than usual.
Usually Xu Sangyu accompanies Mrs. Xu to eat, and always chooses some light, soft and glutinous things to eat according to the old lady's taste, but Mrs. Xu doesn't know that her granddaughter loves to eat these things.
Seeing that she was eating sweetly at this time, Mrs. Xu's mood also improved a lot, and she also used chopsticks to taste some, "Don't say it, it's quite fragrant." You love to eat this simple, next time I come, I will ask Master Liu to cook you a large table of Sichuan food. β
As she spoke, Mrs. Xu glared at Xu Jiaqian, who had done a lot of good things, obviously blaming him for giving the kitchen a holiday without authorization, and he had nothing to do.
Xu Jiaqian was so angry that he straightened his head, although most of the dishes on this large table were from Chen Mingming's hands, and he wanted him to stand in the kitchen and smell the fumes for a few hours, whether as the chairman of a group or a father, he could be regarded as giving Xu Sangyu, a dead girl, enough face, but what about her?
Chen Mingliang looked at the dishes on the table that he had carefully prepared, but Xu Sangyu had not touched a bite, and then looked at the man who was willing to accompany her with hot sauce and rice, and his heart was sour.
Xu Wanting put a piece of pot-wrapped meat in her mouth, deliberately put the chewing sound much louder than usual, and then said in a low voice that only two people could hear: "It's delicious." β
Seeing how hard Chen Mingliang worked in the kitchen, Xu Wanting couldn't bear to let his hard work go to waste, and besides, she really likes to eat sweets, but Tang Xinyi has always asked her to eat light food and does not allow her to eat these.
Chen Mingliang turned her head to look at her, she pursed her lips and smiled at him, her shallow smile arc was full of brilliant sincerity, and a warm current, like a gurgling stream, slowly poured into her heart.
Instantaneous warmth.
Jin Junting saw the scene on the other side in his eyes, and the corner of his lips on one side was almost invisibly upturned.
After eating, Mrs. Xu pulled Xu Sangyu upstairs to say that she was considerate.
As soon as she entered the house, Mrs. Xu took her hand and asked, "How do you get along with Jun Ting?"
Almost every time she met Mrs. Xu had to ask these words, Xu Sangyu was not impatient, and replied very seriously, as every time, "It's all good." Grandpa Jin is also very good to me. Don't worry!"
It's just, what does it mean that this eye always sweeps her stomach?
Sure enough, Mrs. Xu continued: "This spicy thing is delicious, but you can't eat too much, slippery tires." β
WhatοΌοΌοΌοΌοΌ
"Grandma, you should know I'm not pregnant, right?"
For such a long time, if Xu Sangyu couldn't see that Mrs. Xu and Mr. Jin were teaming up to trick her, then she would be a fool all these years. It's just that the two old people are having fun, and she doesn't seem to have any actual losses, so she hasn't broken it.
But, what the hell is a slippery tire? This old lady is getting more and more serious about playing?
Mrs. Xu didn't deny it, nor did she admit it, so she changed the topic casually, "This time this dad called you back, obviously wanting to take the initiative to show goodwill, why don't you save him any face." Grandma is old, and she has no other wishes, so she thinks that in the future, I will be gone, and you will have relatives to take care of you.
Jin Junting is good to you, but the Jin family is a big family, and there are many things that he may not be able to control, grandma still hopes that you will have a mother's family to support you, and you will not be wronged, your father has a lot of problems, selfish, and partial, but no matter how you say it, it is also a family. β
Mrs. Xu babbled a lot more, Xu Sangyu kept listening with her head down, and she was not impatient, only when Mrs. Xu mentioned that she was old and had not been in a few years, she stubbornly retorted, "Grandma, live a long life." β
"Okay, grandma is an old goblin, immortal, and always with you. Mrs. Xu patted the back of Xu Sangyu's hand and chuckled.
β¦β¦
Coming out of Mrs. Xu's room, Xu Sangyu was called into the study by Xu Jiaqian again, the last time the two talked in this room was not pleasant, in order to ease the atmosphere, Xu Jiaqian specially poured Xu Sangyu a cup of tea.
Xu Sangyu glanced at the glass teacup on the table, leaned back lazily, and his posture was arrogant, "What's the matter, just say it!"
"You ......" Xu Jiaqian's eyes stared at Xu Sangyu for a long time, after all, Jin Junting did not have a seizure downstairs, and sighed helplessly, "You kid! I am usually strict with you, why do I hold a grudge against my father? Isn't this also good for you? Look at the first time when you were asked to marry Jin Junting, you didn't listen, you chose and chosen, in the end, it wasn't the person your father chose for you to be the best?"
Xu Sangyu put one arm on the armrest of the sofa, the corners of his mouth were about to smile or not, and he didn't even bother to respond to Xu Jiaqian's words.
Xu Jiaqian saw that Xu Sangyu didn't refute, thinking that she had listened, and looked at Xu Sangyu's eyes flashing, "I heard that you are living with Old Man Jin now?" You are right, with the support of the old man, your position in the Jin family will be half stable, as for the other half, you have to hurry up and have a child, as long as you can give birth to a boy, this position of the head of the house will be stable." β
Xu Sangyu still lowered his eyes, with a mocking sneer on the corner of his mouth, unmoved, as if he hadn't heard anything.
Xu Jiaqian smiled, "Don't think that Jin Junting spoils you now, you can rest easy, this man, which one is not in the twilight? β
Xu Sangyu chuckled, a pair of beautiful eyes bent slightly, "Is my father talking about myself?"
Xu Jiaqian's face changed, "What are you talking nonsense again? I'm talking about you now." β
Xu Sangyu casually said an address, and after seeing Xu Jiaqian's face turn pale, he got up slowly, "Father's trouble is enough, I don't have to worry about my affairs." β
This is a threat to the red fruit.
Xu Jiaqian's face froze a little on the spot.
