Chapter 76 People are afraid of comparison
Sitting back in the living room, she whispered a few words to her husband.
After hearing this, Grandpa Lu nodded and was very satisfied!
Just when Grandpa Lu and Grandma Lu were quietly discussing what to name their great-grandson, Wei Mingying came back carrying a big bag.
When Grandma Lu saw her coming back, she smiled and pointed to the kitchen, "The young couple are making dinner!"
Wei Mingying straightened her clothes and went to the kitchen with her things.
As luck would have it, she just happened to see her son looking at the little girl and smiling.
That smile was both gentle and doting. Even though she didn't say the word "like", her mother's eyes could see it clearly.
To get their attention, she coughed lightly.
Lu Jiansen and Gu Xiaoxi turned around at the same time.
"Mom!" Lu Jiansen called softly.
Gu Xiaoxi also blushed and called out, "Mom!"
Lu Jiansen's mother looked a lot like her aunt, so she looked very friendly. The nervousness she had been feeling about meeting her mother-in-law miraculously disappeared at this moment.
Wei Mingying smiled and replied, "Hey! I thought you wouldn't be back until the New Year! Xiaoxi, go out and take a rest, and let Xiaosen do it."
Gu Xiaoxi pursed her lips and smiled, "It's okay. Mom, you go and take a rest, I'll do it with him. It's rare for us to come back, let you taste our craftsmanship."
Lu Jiansen also nodded slightly, "Yes. Mom, you go and have some rest! See when Dad will come back. We have to leave tomorrow morning."
When Wei Mingying heard that her son had to leave tomorrow, she left immediately.
She has to prepare something for her son and Xiaoxi!
When the dishes were almost ready, Lu Jiansen called Si Nanyu in to help serve the dishes.
Gu Xiaoxi saw a small jar of osmanthus honey in the kitchen cupboard. She took out some ingredients from her new product showroom and made a pot of osmanthus cake.
In order to save time, she quietly carried out precise temperature control.
As the sweet-scented osmanthus cake slowly began to emit its fragrance, Mr. Lu also came back.
Although the meal was prepared early, Gu Xiaoxi had controlled the temperature so the meal was at the right temperature and the atmosphere at home was very good.
Lu Liansheng made no secret of his love and satisfaction for Gu Xiaoxi, and he even gave the first piece of food he picked up to Gu Xiaoxi.
This action surprised Wei Mingying!
My man is not the kind of person who shows his emotions. It has been many years since he has picked up food for others at home.
The last time I helped someone pick up food was when the old lady in my family celebrated her 60th birthday.
"Xiaoxi is too thin, eat more. Xiaosen, you have to take good care of your wife, okay?" Lu Liansheng picked up the dishes and did not forget to remind his son.
Lu Jiansen nodded, "Yes, I understand!"
He was very happy that his parents liked his wife, and he would agree to whatever his father said.
His little girl is very light when she is held in the arms. Although she has plenty of flesh where she should be, she really needs to eat more.
So he started helping her pick up dishes, choosing all the ones she liked.
Si Nanyu, who came to eat for free, remained silent throughout the meal.
This was not the first time he came to the Lu family, but it was still extremely rare for the Lu family to be so satisfied with their daughter-in-law.
Anyway, he had never seen such treatment on Bi Wenyue before!
There were ten dishes on the table, all prepared by Gu Xiaoxi and Lu Jiansen. They were colorful, fragrant and delicious, absolutely delicious. Si Nanyu felt that he would be missing out if he ate one bite less.
After dinner, Lu Liansheng called his son to the study, while Gu Xiaoxi chatted with grandpa, grandma and mother Lu.
When he found out that Gu Xiaoxi had found a job at a scrap yard, Si Nanyu was the first to express his protest.
"I've been to Qingbei Military Region once. The scrap yard is far away from the troops. Let Jiansen find you another job."
The most important thing is that Lu Jiansen’s young wife looks very cute and her body is very clean. She is really not suitable for a job like that at a waste station!
Grandma Lu also nodded. "Yes, Nanyu is right. Even if we don't want to join the art troupe, we can be a doctor or nurse! Jianlin called me before and said that Dean Chen of the military hospital thinks highly of you. You are also studying medicine, right?"
Gu Xiaoxi explained: "I am studying medicine, but I like the job at the scrapyard. I also like mechanical things. I can touch a lot of metal parts at the scrapyard. Now I can repair a lot of things by myself!"
Gu Xiaoxi deliberately laid the groundwork and revealed some of the things he knew, hoping that they would understand why he chose to work at the scrap yard.
Grandpa Lu was very surprised, "You actually like machinery?"
Gu Xiaoxi nodded, "Yes. My father works in a machinery factory, and I have always liked to follow him and watch him repair things since I was a child. Not only can I repair watches and bicycles, I can even repair tractors!"
Grandpa Lu was immediately delighted, feeling not only surprised but also proud.
His granddaughter-in-law is so amazing!
Si Nanyu looked incredulous. It was very special that a girl liked to repair things!
At least none of the lesbians he knew liked to mend things. At most, they just liked to go shopping and think about what to eat and wear.
Wei Mingying was also surprised. She asked curiously, "Can you repair a radio? My radio fell down once and the sound quality is not good anymore. Can you repair it?"
When Grandma Lu heard this, she sighed inwardly.
My wife's radio was broken by my second son's careless daughter-in-law during a quarrel. She didn't even say an apology for breaking it, which made me angry just by looking at it.
Gu Xiaoxi nodded and said, "My grandpa also likes to listen to the radio. I can fix it."
When Grandpa Lu heard this, he immediately went to the room and took out his old radio, and then found some tools.
Gu Xiaoxi took the radio, inspected it, and quickly started to disassemble it.
Looking at her skillful movements, Grandpa Lu was quite satisfied. She seemed to be someone with strong hands-on ability.
Gu Xiaoxi perfectly disassembled every component of the radio, then cleaned them one by one, rerouted the wiring, and reassembled everything.
Her movements seemed slow, but they were actually very fast.
Grandma Lu and Wei Mingying couldn't understand it and felt dazzled. They were vaguely worried that Gu Xiaoxi wouldn't be able to put it back together.
Grandpa Lu and Si Nanyu watched it very seriously, especially Si Nanyu.
Twenty minutes later, Gu Xiaoxi had reassembled the radio perfectly. Nothing could be seen from the outside, but when it was plugged in, everyone was shocked.
The sound coming from the radio is crystal clear, and there is no noise at all when receiving stations.
Grandpa Lu was immediately delighted. He felt that this radio sounded better than when he first bought it!
Grandma Lu was extremely happy, her face full of satisfaction.
Xiao Sen's daughter-in-law is really not exaggerating, and her eldest grandson has really good taste!
Wei Mingying also felt a little emotional. People are afraid of comparison. When she thought about the wife her second son married, her face became depressed.
