Chapter 418: Inheritance at the dinner table
I'm telling you serious, why do you always say these headless things. ”
Zhen Jiabao took a sip lightly, and lightly kicked Helian Quan's ankle under the table as a warning.
Chen's mother is very competent in this background board, except for reminding the two people when their cooking actions are not standardized, the rest is completely left to Helian Quan and Zhen Jiabao to play by themselves - mainly to take advantage of the opportunity to cook together.
What a good pair of little couples, Chen's mother held her hands in her sleeves, smiling so much that she couldn't see her eyes.
The time for serious study always flies very quickly, and Helian Quan and Zhen Jiabao have just learned how to cook a dish of sea cucumber with green onions, and they are in the kitchen to prepare dinner.
My aunt had also returned from the family business, and was about to ask the old housekeeper to call Helian Quan over to talk, but she heard the news that Helian Quan was lying in the kitchen with Zhen Jiabao.
"I think this kid is really fascinated by that girl, the last time this kid went into the kitchen was because he wanted to make a ...... for his mother cough, after so many years, this affectionate and righteous character has not changed, which is good. ”
It seemed that he knew that he had said the wrong thing, although only his aunt and the old housekeeper were present, but the aunt still rationally intercepted what she had not said, and the dark color was much softer.
"What's even more commendable is that the young master thinks that the young lady is worth paying, isn't this a match made in heaven."
My aunt also smiled, stretched out her hand and pressed the corners of her eyes to prevent her eye wrinkles from deepening, and recalled: "At that time, I only knew that Xiaoquan and this girl got married in a flash after meeting by chance. ”
The old butler nodded approvingly: "But it can be said, it's really rare." ”
My aunt originally wanted to teach Helian Quan not to spoil Zhen Jiabao so much, but after talking to the old housekeeper, she felt that there was nothing bad, except for being a little dissatisfied with Zhen Jiabao's previous wayward behavior, my aunt didn't want to make things difficult anymore.
"Okay, just let me see how long this girl can keep learning to cook."
The aunt shook her head, and didn't want to call Helian Quan back from the kitchen to talk, so she put her handbag into the old housekeeper's hand: "I'll go back to the room first to change my clothes, and then come and call me when it's time for dinner." ”
The old housekeeper held his aunt's handbag in his hand and said yes with a smile.
Zhen Jiabao also ate deliciously at dinner that day, maybe because he and Helian Quan did a lot of things he did when he was a child today, so that Zhen Jiabao didn't feel nervous when he was a little familiar with Sicily, maybe because he was really tired of learning to cook in the kitchen with Helian Quan today, so he didn't pay much attention to other people's expressions when eating, and he was very intoxicated.
Although Helian's family has a rule of not saying anything about food, but the old man suddenly put the bowl down while eating, and reached out to touch his stomach.
"Usually one bowl of dinner is almost enough, why did I watch you eat today, I actually ate two bowls unconsciously."
The old man's expression looked a little melancholy, and he sighed as he stared at the empty bowl on the table.
Zhen Jiabao just stuffed a four-happiness pill into his mouth, and when he heard this, his eyes widened and he raised his head to look at the old man, afraid that he had done something wrong.
As everyone knows, Zhen Jiabao's appearance looks like a scared little hamster to everyone, and his mouth is still bulging, but it is also cute.
"I didn't reprimand you, eat yours."
Helian Quan suddenly reached out and took a sticky rice grain from Zhen Jiabao's cheek, pinned the bangs that had slipped off to Zhen Jiabao's ear, and said warmly.
The old man looked at Helian
Kwon only felt sore teeth, and exchanged glances with the old housekeeper who was standing on the side.
"Yay...... Ahem, grandpa, why don't you eat some more? Today's dinner...... It's delicious. ”
Zhen Jiabao swallowed the food in his mouth in a hurry, and then he made time to talk to the old man, and the old man looked at Zhen Jiabao and laughed with a look of panic.
"Okay, I just watched your girl eat so deliciously so I couldn't help but eat more, you can continue to eat, maybe I can eat more after watching you eat for a while."
Zhen Jiabao originally thought that Helian Quan's grandfather should be a very strict old man, but he didn't expect to talk to himself so kindly, and he was suddenly moved and didn't know what to say, so he could only turn gratitude into appetite, and picked up a piece of chicken leg.
"Dad, you can't eat any more, or I'll invite the doctor over in a moment and let the doctor see how much more you have eaten than the ration today."
My aunt also put the bowl down, elegantly picked up a napkin and wiped her mouth, and then gently and persistently "threatened" the old man.
Zhen Jiabao didn't expect that these elders in the Helian family would get along in such a way, and he had always heard that the head of the Helian family was decisive in doing things, leading the Helian family to gain a firm foothold in Sicily and develop into a family that cannot be underestimated here.
But in Zhen Jiabao's mind, the head of the Helian family, who should have been very majestic, would really put down his job because of his daughter's threat, blowing his beard and glaring angrily.
Zhen Jiabao nibbled on the chicken leg in his mouth, and his eyes kept turning around his aunt and old man.
It's no wonder that when I first met Helian Quan, I felt that Helian Quan was as ruthless as an iceberg, but after I really got familiar with Helian Quan, I felt that he had a natural warmth on him.
But it turns out that the way the whole family gets along is so warm and ...... Peculiar? Zhen Jiabao looked at the old man's aggrieved wrinkled face, and couldn't help but think.
It's just that compared to others, Helian Quan's father seems out of place, whether it is at the breakfast table or just now, Helian Quan's father has been eating his own food silently, and he has no intention of interjecting in other people's topics.
Zhen Jiabao also knew that Helian Quan's father had those bad things, although he married Helian Quan's mother, he fell in love with Su Luomei, who was born as a maid, and this matter has always been a thorn in Helian Quan's heart.
But it seems that the betrayal of his beloved woman is a big blow to Helianquan's father, Zhen Jiabao looked at Helianquan's father's depressed and silent face, and couldn't tell what it was like.
If Helian Quan's father had known that this Su Luomei would betray him, would he have made the same choice?
After all, in Zhen Jiabao's opinion, although Su Luomei is still charming, it can be seen that she must have been a beautiful woman when she was young, but just looking at Su Luomei's virtue of being able to seduce her married master, you know that there is no morality at all.
And Helian Quan's biological mother Zheng Feiran is different, she is good-looking, and she is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting...... Zhen Jiabao threw aside the gnawed chicken leg bones and stopped thinking about Helian Quan's father.
Although Helian Quan's father ate slowly and reservedly, he quickly finished eating after his aunt put down the chopsticks, and sat silently after putting down the dishes and chopsticks.
So now there are only two people left on the dinner table, Zhen Jiabao and Helian Quan, who have not finished eating, Helian Quan deliberately slowed down his speed in order to accommodate Zhen Jiabao, but Zhen Jiabao secretly accelerated the chewing speed.
Finally, after eating the last piece of pork ribs in the bowl that Helian Quan had sandwiched, Zhen Jiabao also put down the dishes and chopsticks and smiled brightly at his aunt and the old man.
"I'm done!"
Helian Quan slowly put down his dishes and chopsticks after Zhen Jiabao wiped his mouth, and he couldn't see that he was always following Zhen Jiabao's eating speed, and his movements were elegant and reserved.
"I've eaten too."
My aunt looked at Helian Quan's thinking about Zhen Jiabao everywhere, although she had accepted the truth of the love between Helian Quan and Zhen Jiabao, but suddenly she still had a sense of loss that the good cabbage that she had raised for many years was finally arched by another cabbage.
"You're eating much slower now than you used to."
My aunt looked down at her nails, and her words were sour.
"Didn't the doctor say that chewing slowly is good for your health?"
Helian Quan's left hand quietly held Zhen Jiabao's right hand under the table and put it on his knee, talking to his aunt with a smile.
My aunt knew what was going on under the table at a glance, and she couldn't help but feel that Helian Quan was now like a boy in a junior high school class, wanting to cover up.
That's it, since Helian Quan likes it, let him like it.
Since everyone had already eaten, they simply went to the hall on the other side to sit down and talk, but Helian Quan's father left early.
"Father, sister, I'll go back and rest first."
Helian Quan's father also looked gloomy and lifeless when he said goodbye to them, and the old man was still happy when he talked to Helian Quan, but he also drooped his face when he looked at his son.
"Go ahead, but since your son is back, you, the father, must also show your attitude, don't always be lukewarm."
The old man lowered his eyes, sat on the throne and coughed lightly.
Helian family still maintains the rules of the old era, Helian Quan's father bowed slightly after hearing this, and then nodded with Helian Quan and Zhen Jiabao before turning to leave.
Zhen Jiabao suddenly remembered that after breakfast today, Helianquan's father had asked him to go with Helianquan to get gifts, but after being taken to the kitchen by his aunt, he kept forgetting about it, and suddenly felt a little guilty.
"Okay, let's talk as a family, and leave him alone."
The old man's tone was still light, and there was a meaning in his words that he excluded Helian Quan's father from the family, which made Zhen Jiabao secretly frightened.
As if he didn't react to the old man's words at all, Helian Quan first picked up the teacup on the small tea table next to him and took a sip.
"Xiaowei, I told you before that you are going to gradually prepare to bring Xiaoquan into the family business, what do you have in mind?"
Zhen Jiabao's hand was held in the palm of Helian Quan's hand and placed on his knee, and after hearing this, he only felt that he should not appear here.
Although he is now Helian Quan's wife, Zhen Jiabao feels that he is not qualified to listen to the change of power in Helian family.
So Zhen Jiabao subconsciously tightened his fingers, which made Helian Quan look at her in surprise.
"Although this matter is not urgent, but we must prepare now, after all, we are in charge of the family business, and the people below have long known that Xiaoquan will come back to take charge sooner or later, and I will take him to the company to deal with some things tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."
Aunt said, and deliberately glanced at Helian Quan to ask for advice.
