Chapter 336, New Year's Eve Dinner ([-])

On the table.

The atmosphere is still active.

Although there were two elders, Jiang Fu and Qi Wenjun present, both of them were uncharacteristically kind.

He didn't bother with the various "rules" of the Jiang family as a scholarly family, and he didn't put on airs of elders in front of Jiang Li.

Qi Wenjun smiled gently the whole time and kept picking up vegetables for Jiangli.

"Thank you auntie."

Jiang Li thanked her with a bowl, but felt that the atmosphere at the table was a little strange, as if she had become the protagonist of this New Year's Eve dinner.

The two elders, Jiang Fu and Qi Wenjun, are also the parents of Jiang Mingyi and Jiang Mingxuan.

But the two elders can be said to be indifferent to their two sons, but they are particularly enthusiastic about themselves.

This is somewhat unreasonable.

Soon.

Among the meals at the table, sweet and sour pork ribs, braised fish and crispy pork have bottomed out, among which Jiang Fu and Qi Wenjun are the main force.

Other meals were eaten here and there.

That scorched spicy chicken, since Gu Qian "revealed himself", no one has picked it up again...

"Is the food not enough? Is Lili full?"

Qi Wenjun looked at Jiang Li and asked kindly.

Her address has changed from "Xiaojiang" to "Lili" at the beginning. As for "Mingshu", it is obvious that she cannot be called out.

"I am full."

"Eat more."

As Qi Wenjun said, he kicked his husband under the table: "Go to the kitchen and cook some more dishes, will you finish eating without watching?"

Jiang Fu was kicked, and immediately said: "Okay, I'll go to the kitchen to make some more, you guys eat slowly."

talking.

Jiang Fu stood up.

Jiang Li hurriedly got up and said, "Uncle Jiang, sit and eat while I go to the kitchen to make some more dishes."

She is a guest.

Originally, when there were elders, I felt very embarrassed that I didn't bring any presents.

"This……"

Jiang Fu hesitated.

Gu Qian got up with a smile and smoothed things over: "Uncle Jiang, you sit and eat, and I will accompany Lili to the kitchen to cook a few more dishes."

Done.

The two walked towards the kitchen.

The four people at the table looked at each other.

Seeing that Jiang Li and Gu Qian had gone far away, Qi Wenjun was very dissatisfied and kicked his husband lightly: "If you don't listen to me asking you to cook a few more dishes, it's all right now, Mingshu has to cook it herself for the first time. The chef cooks for us."

"It's not that I haven't cooked for a long time. A few dishes were cooked and I wasted a little time."

"Dad, Mom, you two were too 'attentive' just now..." Jiang Mingyi looked at his parents and complained helplessly.

"what happened?"

The two frowned slightly.

Jiang Mingyi glanced at Jiangli and Gu Qian's vacant seats, and explained with a helpless smile: "Dad, you keep asking about Mingshu's current family situation, and if you don't know, you think you are going to give your son a blind date."

Jiang Fu: "..."

After Jiang Mingyi finished speaking, he looked at his mother again: "Mom, the vegetables in Mingshu's bowl have piled up into a hill, and you still keep picking them up."

"What's wrong with eating more? You look thinner now." Qi Wenjun frowned slightly, very dissatisfied with the elder son's words.

Jiang Mingxuan said in a low voice: "Sister Jiang Li is an actress now, and she wants to keep fit for filming..."

"Stop eating to keep fit? Then you don't eat too, go stand in the yard."

"..."

Jiang Mingxuan, who had no family status, shut up silently, buried his head in the bowl and just ate without saying a word.

in the kitchen.

While preparing croquettes, Jiang Li asked with some doubts: "Gu Qian, why are Brother Jiang's parents here?"

"It's Chinese New Year."

Gu Qian "explained" with a smile: "Uncles and aunts may find it boring to celebrate the New Year at home, so they came to reunite with their son."

Jiang Li nodded, agreeing with the rhetoric, but her doubts remained on her face: "But when you were eating just now, didn't you feel a little weird?"

"What's wrong?"

"Uncles and aunts seem to be very kind to me."

"Isn't this a good thing?"

"nonsense."

Jiang Li glanced at Gu Qian, and said in a serious tone: "Brother Jiang and Mingxuan and I are just friends, there is no reason for uncles and aunts to be so nice to me."

"And my uncles and aunts kept asking about my family situation and how I've been doing these years..."

"Talk about us being together, do uncles and aunts know?"

Gu Qian nodded slightly, with a firm tone: "I know."

"That's weird."

Jiang Li's head was full of question marks, and she didn't understand what Jiang Fu and Qi Wenjun meant: "I always feel like uncles and aunts are looking for a daughter-in-law for their son..."

"Cough cough!"

Gu Qian choked on his saliva, coughed in embarrassment, and explained seriously: "This is because you think too much."

"Really?"

"Yeah, Uncle Jiang and Aunt Qi are actually very nice people. We can be regarded as guests when we come to the door. This should be the Jiang family's way of hospitality."

"But……"

"Besides, Uncle Jiang and Aunt Qi have always wanted to have a daughter, but in the end they gave birth to two sons, Jiang Mingyi and Jiang Mingxuan. Maybe it is for this reason that they treat you more favorably."

"That's it."

Jiang Li nodded, reluctantly accepted this set of arguments, and fished out the fried meatballs on her own.

Gu Qian stepped forward to help serve the bowl, and comforted him in a gentle voice: "Don't worry, don't think about it so much, we'll go back after eating."

"All right."

Jiang Li nodded.

Soon.

A series of brand new dishes were brought out by Jiang Li and Gu Qian. They were all special dishes of City A, and there was a certain gap between them and the cuisines of the capital city.

"Uncle, Auntie, these are all the cuisines from City A. I don't know if it suits your taste. You should try it first."

Jiang Li said in a sweet voice.

In front of the elders she recognized, she still behaved like a good girl.

"Appetite, appetizer."

Jiang Fu's face was already wrinkled.

Qi Wenjun usually only eats a little at night, but today's New Year's Eve dinner was so full that he didn't want to stop.

This is the dish made by their niece.

After 20 years, they tasted their own daughter's dishes for the first time.

The workmanship is very good.

Jiang Fu and Qi Wenjun ate, feeling inexplicably sour in their hearts.

Both of them were not stupid, and they could tell that Jiangli's cooking skills were definitely not innate, but slowly honed through long-term cooking.

If Jiangli grew up in the capital, it would definitely be impossible to master such cooking skills.

The eldest ladies of the aristocratic families in the capital live an exquisite life of rich clothes and fine food, and none of them touch the spring water. They may be good at "elegant" things such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but they hardly dabble in cooking.

The dishes are delicious.

But it also explained in disguise that the past few years when my daughter disappeared was actually not a good one.

"I'm full, let's go up to get some air."

Qi Wenjun got up and walked towards the second floor.

There were tears in her eyes unconsciously, and she didn't want Jiang Li to see them, so she had to find a reason to leave first.

"Aunt her?"

"it's okay no problem."

Jiang Fu explained with a smile: "Xiaojiang's craftsmanship is too good. She ate a little too much just now. Maybe she went up to get some fresh air. I'll go and have a look."

Done.

Jiang Fu got up and left.
