Chapter 177 Good boy, call grandpa!



Mr. Cen has lived for most of his life, and he has at least dozens of disciples.

But You Bin is the one he has invested the most in and is the one he is most optimistic about.

At first, he just felt sorry for the child who had lost his parents, so he did some good deeds.

But You Bin was a grateful child. Having received his kindness, he always wanted to repay his parents and often went home to help with housework.

As time went by, the two people became more and more familiar with each other.

Mr. Cen liked the child more and more, and finally adopted him as his godson and brought him home.

After being adopted, You Bin is still very hardworking and will find ways to help Mr. Cen with work.

It was precisely because of his diligence that Master Cen saw his talent, formally accepted him as his apprentice, and began to teach him cooking.

You Bin did not disappoint Elder Cen's high hopes. He was like a seed that finally encountered water, and he quickly began to take root, sprout, grow branches, and grow leaves...

At that time, almost everyone in the industry in the capital knew that Master Cen had accepted a personal disciple who he was very proud of, and he went around showing off to his old friends.

But everyone has no choice but to envy him, because You Bin's excellence is obvious to all.

In the past, there were people who wanted to take You Bin as their disciple and compete with him.

But at that time, You Bin had no rivals among the apprentices in the capital.

It was for this reason that Mr. Cen brought him into the imperial kitchen with some blind confidence.

But life in the palace, even in the imperial kitchen, is not just about making delicious food.

You Bin showed his talents right after his arrival and was highly praised by the emperor. How could others be happy?

So someone took advantage of the death of the previous emperor and the ascension of the new emperor to secretly mix shredded meat into the food that You Bin prepared for the emperor.

During a period of national mourning, this is no small matter.

You Bin's fate depends entirely on the emperor's decision.

Mr. Cen wanted to take the blame for You Bin, but how could the person who did it not think of this?

They deliberately chose a time when Mr. Cen was not on duty in the imperial kitchen.

You Bin was still a young man in his twenties at the time, and he was almost scared to death when he encountered such a thing.

Fortunately, when the new emperor ascended the throne, whether he wanted to establish the image of a benevolent monarch or did not want to commit murder and ruin his own fate, he only exiled You Bin outside the pass instead of ordering his men to chop him off to be buried with the late emperor.

When You Bin left the capital, Mr. Cen prepared a lot of gold and silver jewelry for him and asked him to keep them safe.

He even reluctantly sent the person away for a long distance.

In the first few years, You Bin would write letters back to Beijing, but after a long time, they lost contact.

Mr. Cen didn't know how You Bin was doing, and he asked the caravans going outside the Great Wall to help find out the news many times, but there was no result.

Now that he had finally met You Bin's descendants, he thought that he could finally meet his master and disciple, and his son. However, he received such news. No wonder he felt upset.

Mr. Jiang consoled him, "Mr. Cen, there's nothing we can do about this kind of natural disaster.

“But as the saying goes, no news is the best news.

“Besides, Madam You and the others had a very difficult journey back to the capital, and they have only just settled down not long ago.

"I'll ask people to go outside the Great Wall and ask around. Now that we know the name and other details about the family, it will be much easier to find him."

"Yes, Mr. Cen, I also wrote to my acquaintances outside the Great Wall, hoping to find out the whereabouts of my mother's family.

“It’s just that the situation outside the Great Wall is not good right now, and many of the people I know are fleeing everywhere, so it’s a bit difficult to find them for the time being.

"But I believe that my mother's family is blessed with good fortune and will be fine.

Listening to the two people's comfort, Elder Cen sighed and said, "It seems that this is the only way now.

"Tell me about your family's situation later, and I'll arrange for someone to search outside the Great Wall."

When Elder Cen calmed down a bit, he suddenly realized that the Sister Ye whom he had misunderstood and despised before was actually his adopted son's daughter? So, should she be his granddaughter?

Thinking of this, Mr. Cen finally felt a belated sense of embarrassment.

"Ahem!" He cleared his throat and asked, "Where do you live now? Are you having any difficulties?"

"My husband's family is from Rongxi Village. We now live in the ancestral house in the village. We live a good life without any difficulties," said Mrs. Ye.

Seeing that he couldn't find any way to help, Mr. Cen racked his brains for a long time, and suddenly remembered that Mrs. Ye was holding the child before.

"When you were eating noodles at noon, was it your daughter you were holding?"

"Yes." Mrs. Ye didn't know what Mr. Cen meant, so she answered cautiously.

It was Mr. Jiang who was a bystander and saw through Mr. Cen's thoughts at a glance.

He smiled and said, "In that case, Madam You should actually call Old Man Cen Grandfather, and Qingtian should call him Great-Grandfather!"

After hearing what Mr. Jiang said, Mr. Cen's thoughts immediately opened up. "Your dumpling soup was sent to us by mistake. Does that mean you and your children haven't had dinner yet?"

Before Mrs. Ye could reply, Mr. Jiang ordered Qiu Wei, "Hurry up and ask the kitchen to prepare some hot dishes. Then ask Boss Ye to bring Qingtian over. We didn't have enough to eat just now, so let's eat something together!"

Upon hearing what Mr. Jiang said, Mr. Cen's eyes lit up and he agreed.

So before Mrs. Ye could express her opinion, Qiu Wei quickly went down to carry out the order.

Mrs. Ye had no choice but to accept the current situation.

However, she still asked with some confusion: "Mr. Cen, I have a question..."

Mr. Jiang interrupted her and said, "Why call him Mr. Cen? You should call him Grandfather."
