Chapter 367 Two people gave him a taste of his own medicine.
"Uncle Lu, you really have gray hair. I can see one. If you don't believe me, I'll pluck it out for you."
Lu Jiangting: "..."
The child couldn't tell the difference between sarcastic and sarcastic remarks; he thought the two were just concerned about Lu Jiangting.
"When I grow up, I will help take care of Grandpa and Grandma, so please don't be angry."
Lu Jiangting's heart softened immediately, deeply moved.
He patted his head and said, "Good, Chenchen is such a good boy."
Unfortunately, Dad probably won't live to see Chenchen grow up.
"Come on, Uncle will buy you ice cream."
……
Lin Ping and Yi Yunshuo bought a case of beer and a case of orange juice from a larger store across the street.
The two men each carried a box as they came out of the store.
When they returned to the neighborhood, they unexpectedly ran into Lu Jiangting with Wang Chenchen again. Wang Chenchen was still eating ice cream, which had gotten all over her face.
Lu Jiangting didn't want to talk to them, so he pulled Wang Chenchen away quickly.
Lin Ping said, "He's actually quite good to that child."
"Right, after all, the situation is special. His stepfather is different from others. He would rather eat less meat himself than let Chenchen go hungry."
"Oh, it's good that they got married. Otherwise, if he married someone else, the girl would be so unlucky."
Yi Yunshuo laughed and said, "That unlucky girl was almost your sister. Your sister is also very capable. She made a quick decision to break off the engagement."
The two chatted and laughed as they went back, and the food was already on the table.
Lin Yuyao asked, "Why is it taking so long?"
Lin Ping replied, "The shop downstairs doesn't have any whole cases left, so we'll buy them outside."
"We'll take as much as we can; we can't finish a whole case anyway."
Lin Ping felt that her older sister was starting to sound more and more like her mother.
"But you didn't say anything, so what if you're missing? You'll blame me."
Lin Yuyao: "..." Inflexible.
Fu Huaiyi: "Alright, sit down and eat quickly, it'll get cold soon."
The table was laden with food, especially two dishes that they had never seen before in restaurants.
Yi Yunshuo had eaten quite a few good things with Fu Huaiyi, but he still couldn't stop praising Lin Yuyao's cooking skills.
"Comrade Xiaolin's cooking skills are good enough to be a head chef."
Lin Yuyao was embarrassed by the praise, "Oh, I can't possibly know how to cook. I only know a few simple home-style dishes. I can't compare to a professional chef."
Yi Yunshuo: "I'm not just doing this because I'm grateful to you; it's genuinely good."
Lin Ping: "Sis, where did you learn to cook? I remember you were about the same as me, just focusing on getting the food done properly. But since you left home for a few months, your cooking skills have suddenly improved dramatically."
Upon hearing his words, Yi Yunshuo looked at Lin Yuyao in shock.
"Your cooking skills improved dramatically in just a few months?"
Lin Yuyao glared at Lin Ping, then explained to them, "I might be more talented. I didn't know how to make it at home before because my parents did it for me. But during those few months I was here alone, and it was too expensive to buy it outside, so I started to learn how to make it myself, and that's how I became able to do it like this."
"That's amazing! You've got the talent to be a chef. Xiao Lin, you should open a restaurant."
Lin Yuyao: "Running a restaurant is so tiring. I only cook once in a while. It would be annoying to cook every day."
"You've become this good just from doing it once in a while?" He looked at Fu Huaiyi with envy and said, "You're really lucky."
Fu Huaiyi picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, saying, "Just eat, stop talking so much nonsense."
After finishing his meal, Yi Yunshuo continued, "So that's why you're so fixated on Comrade Xiaolin. Tell me, aren't you already impressed by her cooking skills?"
Fu Huaiyi: "Do you think I only know how to eat, like you?"
"You still won't admit it? You definitely are."
Lin Yuyao laughed and said, "You guessed wrong. In the past... at most, I would give him the steamed buns that I couldn't finish."
Well, that's it.
He would go to her house for dinner after get off work, but that happened later.
Yi Yunshuo looked shocked. Fu Huaiyi ate leftover steamed buns?
How delicious must those steamed buns be?
"Comrade Xiaolin, when are you steaming buns again? Could you save one for me?"
Fu Huaiyi: "What are you doing?"
Lin Yuyao: "Okay."
The two spoke almost at the same time.
Yi Yunshuo: "I just want to taste how delicious those steamed buns are."
Fu Huaiyi was speechless for a moment, thinking to himself, "Could it be for the food?"
Do you think I'm like you?
Really.
……
When Lu Jiangting took Wang Chenchen back, Fang Qing had already prepared the meal.
Everything was placed on the table, just waiting for them to come back for dinner.
The three sat around the table, with the old man at the top, staring intently at the table and forbidding anyone from touching their chopsticks.
He said that we could only eat after Lu Jiangting returned.
Fang Qing suggested going to call them, but the old man said it wasn't necessary, saying they would come back naturally when they had had enough fun.
So the three of them sat at the table, staring at the food and waiting for a long time.
Now, Lu Jiangting has finally brought Chenchen back.
Wang Cuilan happily invited them to sit down and eat.
Lu Jiangting said nothing, seemingly used to it.
He sat down naturally, took the chopsticks Wang Cuilan handed him, and started eating.
Fang Qing was very unhappy, but she didn't say anything in the end.
But after the meal, the whole family dispersed, and no one bothered to clear the table, which made her very dissatisfied.
She said, slamming her fist on the ground, "When I'm busy, I'm busy by myself; when I'm eating, the whole family eats; and after we're done eating, I'm still the one who has to keep busy."
Lu Jiangting frowned immediately. Was she implying that he hadn't done any work?
He felt that Fang Qing had changed.
In the past, when Fang Qing invited him to dinner, she never let him do anything; she just asked him to play with Chenchen.
He did the same thing as usual today. While Fang Qing was cooking, he took Chenchen out to play. Why should he be complained about?
Thinking back, he used to praise Fang Qing for her good cooking and for keeping the house clean.
Then she sighed and said that Yuyao's family doted on her, and she didn't seem to know how to do these things.
What did Fang Qing say back then?
She herself said that housework is a woman's job and men shouldn't be allowed to do it; her family shouldn't spoil their daughter.
She also said that if a woman can't even do housework well and has to rely on a man for help, then she doesn't deserve to be a woman.
Yes, Fang Qing has changed.
Lu Jiangting was a little annoyed and didn't want to listen to his nagging, so he took Chenchen out to play again.
As soon as Lu Jiangting left, Lu Cong said with dissatisfaction, "If you're unhappy, just leave. There's no need to throw a tantrum and give people a hard time. I'll persuade Jiangting to divorce you. If the organization doesn't agree, I'll kill myself at their doorstep to force the leaders to agree to your divorce."
Fang Qing: "..."
One sentence cured her.
Fang Qing didn't dare to say anything more and obediently busied herself in the kitchen.
Thinking to myself, "You old codger, the doctor said your condition has worsened again."
I'll just hold on a little longer and it'll be over. I'll get a divorce?
You think beautifully.
Just you wait, my good days are yet to come.
She had just finished her work when Lu Jiangting returned with Wang Chenchen.
"Chenchen, play with your mom for a while."
Fang Qing was taken aback; she had just finished her work and hadn't had a chance to rest yet.
"What are you doing?"
