Chapter 39 Receive the jade pendant and go into the kitchen to cook



Jiang Wu did not tell the two old people about Jiang Wang's injury so as not to worry them. Therefore, when Jiang Wang came over, the two old people thought that he came because he wanted to discuss the wedding.

Grandma Jiang poured water for Ye Yanhan and asked her to eat delicious food, which made Ye Yanhan feel a little embarrassed.

"Grandma, you and Grandpa, please stop working. Jiang Wang and I are here to see you today. How can we keep you busy?"

"Okay, okay, I won't be busy anymore. I didn't expect that my Jiang Wang is so lucky to find a caring girl like you."

On the surface, Grandma Jiang was praising Jiang Wang for his vision, but in fact she was praising Ye Xuanhan for being a good girl.

Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang are both in their sixties this year. At their age, what they most hope for is for their grandsons to get married as soon as possible.

Now that he saw Jiang Wang had found such a beautiful girl, he was naturally happy.

Facing Grandma Jiang's compliments, Ye Han was neither modest nor pretentious, but gladly accepted them, "Thank you, Grandma."

Grandpa Jiang didn't say anything the whole time, but quietly observed Ye Xinhan's words and actions. When he saw a smile on his old wife's face, he knew that she accepted Ye Xinhan as her granddaughter-in-law.

...

...

Although he is the head of the family outside, he still has to look at his wife's mood when encountering problems. Since his wife likes Ye Xuanhan, he naturally has no reason to object.

Grandpa Jiang coughed twice and said, "Jiang Wang, come out for a moment. I have something to tell you."

"Yeah," Jiang Wang responded, then stood up and followed Grandpa Jiang out.

Ye Xuanhan and Grandma Jiang were left alone in the house.

Ye Xuanhan is usually sharp-tongued, but he only speaks harshly to some extremely bad people.

For someone like Grandma Jiang who looks kind and has a good heart, her kind words are as if they are free of charge. She says one after another, making Grandma Jiang laugh out loud.

"You are such a live treasure, my little girl. No wonder Jiang Wang always mentions your name in his letters to us old couple, and he also said that I will definitely like you."

Ye Xuanhan caught a key piece of information, "Grandma, you said Jiang Wang mentioned me in the letter to you?"

"Not only did I mention it," Grandma Jiang smiled, covering her mouth with her hands, "I almost praised you to the sky."

Ye Xuanhan nodded. He didn't expect that Jiang Wang would write a letter to Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang in advance and specifically mentioned him.

It seems that he wants to leave a good impression on his grandparents.

But she was a little curious and wanted to know how Jiang Wang praised her, so she asked Grandma Jiang curiously, "Grandma, how did Jiang Wang praise me?"

"Well, let's keep it secret for now," Grandma Jiang smiled so hard that her teeth were showing.

The two were talking excitedly when Jiang Wang and Grandpa Jiang came back from outside. They looked normal and there was nothing special about them.

Grandpa Jiang said to Grandma Jiang, "Old lady, I remember there is a jade pendant passed down from our ancestors. Take it out and give it to Yanhan."

Hearing this, Grandma Jiang was stunned, "Old man——"

"Take it out quickly, lest you forget it later."

Ye Hanhan looked at the serious expressions of Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang, and knew that the meaning of the jade pendant was not simple. Perhaps for the Jiang family, whoever had the jade pendant would be the granddaughter-in-law recognized by the two old people.

At Grandpa Jiang's urging, Grandma Jiang quickly took out the jade pendant.

Ye Xuanhan looked over and saw an emerald green jade pendant lying in Grandma Jiang's hand. The overall shape was a divine bird, with a smooth surface, and the jade was transparent and textured. It was obviously made of fine jade.

Grandma Jiang walked up to Ye Yanhan and personally put the jade pendant on Ye Yanhan's neck.

"This pendant is an heirloom of the Jiang family. You must take good care of it," Grandma Jiang reminded.

Ye Xuanhan thought that after talking to the two old people, he would go back.

Who knew that Grandpa Jiang asked him not to leave tonight, and Ye Han also stayed.

Anyway, there are still a few empty rooms in the house that are usually empty. Grandma Jiang will clean them up occasionally, so that there is enough space for the two of them to live in.

Grandma Jiang said, "Xianhan, Jiang Wang's aunt is coming over tomorrow. She said she wants to meet you. Don't leave tonight. Stay."

Ye Xuanhan nodded. It didn’t matter to her whether she went back or not.

At dinner time, Grandma Jiang wanted to go to the kitchen to cook, and Ye Han followed her to help.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Wang said, "Grandma, you should take a day off today. Let Han show you her skills and I will go and help her."

Hearing this, Ye Hanhan felt a little embarrassed.

Well, she can’t cook well. If she cooks a pot of terrible food, Grandma Jiang’s favorability towards her might directly turn negative.

"Okay, today the old man and I will practice Ye Han's cooking skills," Grandma Jiang's eyes sparkled as she looked at Ye Han with anticipation.

This made her swallow back the words she was about to say.

Today she will cook two of her best dishes…it seems like she doesn’t have any best dishes.

At an angle where Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang couldn't see, Ye Han glared at Jiang Wang and threatened to serve Jiang Wang on the table if he couldn't cook the dish.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Wang smiled at her, obviously not realizing the importance of the matter.

Ye Hanhan forced a smile and said, "Grandpa and grandma, Jiang Wang and I will go cook. You two wait for now."

Jiang Wang took Ye Han to the kitchen. The stoves in the courtyard kitchen burned wood, and Ye Han took a lot of effort to light the fire.

God knows how much she wants to beat Jiang Wang now. Seeing that the other party is still standing by with his arms crossed and watching the fun, Ye Hanhan wants to beat him up directly.

"Yanhan, you take a rest first, I will cook the meal," Jiang Wang stopped Ye Yanhan from lighting the fire, "Tell grandpa and grandma that it was you who cooked it later."

"Ah?" Ye Han was a little confused, "What do you want to do?"

"Grandpa and grandma are both quite traditional. If you can cook a good meal, they will definitely like you more," Jiang Wang answered truthfully.

“That’s not a good idea.”

"There's nothing wrong with that. If you help me, isn't this meal the same as if you cooked it?"

"Well, there's nothing wrong with that," Ye Han hesitated, "Okay, then we must not let ourselves be exposed later."

Then, the two of them began to prepare food in a hurry.

While Jiang Wang was cooking, Ye Xuanhan was washing the vegetables. In just over half an hour, they had cooked five dishes, including fish, meat, and vegetables. Jiang Wang also cooked a pot of eight-treasure porridge.

Looking at the sumptuous dinner, Ye Han felt a little ashamed.

I must be one of the few people who traveled back to the 1970s and still can’t cook.

In the novels I read before, the heroines were all excellent cooks, proficient in all kinds of skills, and could cook a full banquet in minutes.

But I am a foodie who can only eat but not cook.

Fortunately, the space is filled with a variety of delicious food, which can satisfy your appetite at any time.
