The two of them saluted the old lady separately.

The old lady was still very happy to call Chen Xiaoyun to her side, took her hand, and praised her for her ingenuity: "I like the food you sent yesterday." Wrapping the dish directly into the dough is not something that everyone has. ”

"Yesterday was the best day for the old lady in half a year. Thanks to Miss. Liu's mother was also very happy.

She sincerely hopes that the old lady is good, not to mention so many years of affection, she can be respected in the house because she has served the old lady for many years, and the old lady has great trust in her. If the old lady dies, the status and privileges she now has will disappear.

The old lady has been in poor health lately and has a small appetite. Chen Xiaoyun can let the old lady eat a few more bites, which really reassures her a lot.

"It's good that the old lady likes it. Then I will give the old lady the best food every day from now on. ”

She was humble and quickly explained: "The recipe for wontons is the food recorded in the recipe given by my mother, but I didn't come up with it. I'm just reading from the book. ”

"Oh?" The old lady looked in the direction of Chen's mother, who was still standing: "Recipes? ”

"It was given by the palace." Chen's mother replied neither humbly nor arrogantly: "My daughter-in-law has studied it for several days, but she hasn't made it. I didn't expect Yun'er to follow the recipe as soon as she got it, it seems that she is really talented. ”

Li Yi was shocked into a cold sweat by Chen's mother's compliment, and was about to say something, when the old lady's reply came from her ears: "It's one thing to have talent, and it's another thing to have a heart." The recipes in the palace were specially given to Yun'er, you have a heart. ”

What are the two of them fighting? Why didn't I understand? Li Yi listened to their conversation and felt that there was a story in it, and it was related to herself, but she couldn't guess it at all, and her heart was like a cat scratching.

"A daughter-in-law has always been attentive to taking care of her daughter."

Mother Chen didn't back down! Li Yi was even more puzzled, Chen's mother's personality has always been supple, how did she get on the same page with the old lady? This doesn't fit her personality.

"What can be done at this time to ease the tension between the two?" , she thought seriously.

At this time, the maid outside came in and reported: "The master has come to greet the lady." ”

Li Yi suddenly had a good mood to watch a good show: a man caught between a grumpy mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. This scene must be exciting, and she began to look forward to the arrival of Chen's father.

When he was sick, everyone in the house came to express his concern, except for Chen's father. Does he not like Chen Xiaoyun? Or is it patriarchal? Before she could think about it, Father Chen had already approached to greet the old lady.

He didn't look at his wife, the daughter beside the old lady, who was standing aside, and gave the old lady a serious salute.

"Why do you have time to come and see my old wife today?" There was joy in the old lady's voice that could not be ignored.

"Today, Mu Xiu, I miss my mother, so I came over early." Chen's father's voice is very magnetic, but not hoarse, and it is very comfortable to listen to.

Li Yi likes such middle-aged men: gentle and elegant, with a good temperament. The years have taken away the youthfulness from him, leaving the heaviness. Looking at him, I couldn't help but trust him, as if any troubles could be comforted by listening to him. Leave anything tricky to him, and you can get a satisfactory result.

She hadn't seen Father Chen much in the light curtain, and she couldn't imagine that anyone among middle-aged men was worthy of the gentle and graceful Mother Chen. Seeing Father Chen at this moment, and seeing the scene of the two of them standing together, I couldn't help but feel a sense of harmony. It seems that the two are a natural pair.

"Okay, well, sit down!"

"Is Chen'er also coming to say hello to her mother?" After Chen's father sat down, he seemed to have just seen his wife on the side, and asked.

Chen's mother's original surname was Chu, and her single name was the word "Chen", so he always called "Chen'er". It was quite common to call this name when they were young, but now the youngest child of the two is fourteen years old, and they are still called like this, which is indeed the envy of outsiders.

"You can sit down too." The old lady spoke, but she said this to Chen's mother, she had to give her son face.

Chen's mother thanked her and sat next to Chen's father. The movements are elegant and standard, and it is inevitable that they will be a little distant. There was no eye contact between the two during the whole process.

Li Yi is strange, Father Chen is out of the siege for her, right? Why didn't Chen's mother have the slightest gratitude? And there is zero interaction between the two people, it is not like a loving couple, it is not as simple as not daring to show intimacy in front of the old lady.

"Mother hasn't eaten yet, has she? Son with you for breakfast? Father Chen's focus returned to the old lady.

"Let's use it together." The old lady happily responded, "And the two of you, also accompany me, the old woman." ”

Li Yi was a little embarrassed when she heard this proposal: the porridge she brought was for one person. However, it is too inappropriate to propose at this time to let the old lady eat her own porridge.

"Yun'er also made porridge for you today." She couldn't open her mouth to say something, so Chen's mother said it for her.

Li Yi felt that she really wanted to get to know Chen's mother again, what happened to her this morning? No longer advancing and retreating, as if in a hurry to prove something.

"Is it still yesterday's milk porridge?" The old lady held her son in her left hand and her granddaughter in her right hand and sat down at the table. She still remembers the comfort that the milk porridge brought to her stomach yesterday.

"I gave you a different taste today. It's salty, would you like to try it? Li Yi asked cautiously.

"It's hard for you to cook food for me in a different way. Don't tire yourself out. He turned his head and said to Chen's father: "Yun'er has been cooking for me in person for the past two days, and it tastes very good. ”

Mother Chen followed the old lady's words and emphasized to Chen's father: "It is made according to the recipe given by the palace." ”

The old lady's expression could not distinguish joy and anger. On the side, Father Chen asked with interest: "Oh? Yun'er has such talent? ”

"Just cooking, just use your heart, don't get involved with that." The old lady clearly did not want to talk about this topic anymore.

Li Yi hurriedly motioned for Xiao Cui to bring out the porridge she brought, breaking the silent atmosphere: "You taste it, it has minced meat and vegetables added to it, which is suitable for summer." ”

The servants also brought the other people's breakfasts to the table one after another. Arrange porridge, white buns, and white water. The old lady's bowl of porridge is particularly delicious. The green dishes are dotted with white porridge, showing their freshness and tenderness at all times.

Li Yi waited for the old lady to eat porridge, praised her, and then humbled herself. It's a pity that she didn't wait, the old lady just lowered her head and drank the porridge in front of her. The crowd finished the meal in an eerie silence.

"Yun'er will move in with me today. I live in the wing next door to me. If you don't have anything to do, just ask, I'll help you buy it. The old lady directly announced the official decision, without discussing it with others.

Li Yi saw that Chen Xiaoyun's parents didn't move, and it didn't seem like they wanted to object, so she hurriedly thanked her: "Thank you old lady for your love." It's all in their own homes, and it's easy to move, so Yun'er came over in the afternoon. ”

At this moment, Ann was also invited, and the meal was eaten, and it was time to retire, but the other two had no intention of leaving. The atmosphere in the room gradually stiffened, and she couldn't hold on any longer, so she hurriedly asked the old lady to take her leave, saying that she would go back and pack some of her usual clothes.

The old lady nodded in agreement, Father Chen looked at her with an uncertain expression, only Mother Chen smiled gently at her and watched her leave.

Until she walked out of the room, there was still no sound coming from inside.
