Chapter 28 I Don’t Want to Be Struck by Lightning



Those friends all came for her son.

Lao Xu also didn't want to give up this hard-earned friend easily, not only because of the food Du Wanying cooked, but also because Lao Xu really liked Lao Du, who could argue with her.

For so many years, Lao Xu has been alone. The children are busier than each other. Although she is harsh in her words, it is not easy for the children either. She understands it all, but Lao Xu is really bored, so bored that she doesn't even have anyone to talk to.

"Sister Du, the children's affairs have nothing to do with us. We should deal with them as we please."

Director Xu also quickly agreed, "Aunt Du, my mother is right. You can do whatever you want with her. Don't worry about us."

Director Xu also had some understanding of Lao Du. He had worked diligently for the factory all his life, and his children were all more outstanding than the last.

Even his daughter has been brought up to be so outstanding, he is relieved, except for the doubt he had just had in the hospital.

It’s no wonder that Director Xu thinks too much. Over the years, he doesn’t know how many people have used his relatives to ask him for help. There was a time when such things really annoyed him!

Machinery factory.

"Director Xu, I'm sorry to bother you today. Why don't you have a quick lunch at our house?"

Grandma Du invited her sincerely, mainly because she had confidence in Yingying's cooking skills.

During this period, every time Xu Wenhan came home, he would praise Du Wanying's cooking skills. This kid has eaten a lot of good food since he was a child. Being able to praise someone in front of him again and again, Director Xu really wanted to try it.

It just so happens that Aunt Du personally invited him this time. Wouldn’t it be ungrateful if he didn’t go?

But Director Xu didn't answer at this time, which made Grandma Xu very anxious. Finally, Grandma Xu couldn't help it and reached out to poke her stupid son.

Grandma Du also thought that Director Xu didn't want to come, so she didn't answer. She said regretfully, "If it's inconvenient, forget it. I'll come to thank you in person another day."

This made Director Xu anxious. It wasn't that he didn't want to go, he was just distracted. Besides, looking at the expression on his boss's face, if he still didn't agree, wouldn't the boss scold him to death?

"It's convenient, why not? I'll go home and tell my mother, and we'll be here soon."

"Okay, okay, why don't you bring your wife and son here."

"Let's forget about the kids. I'll bring my wife and mom with me later."

"That's fine, see you later then?"

"See you later, see you later, then we'll go back first."

"Okay, take care."

After the discussion, Director Xu took Grandma Xu home. After they left, Grandma Du looked at Du Wanying embarrassedly.

"Yingying, I'm sorry to trouble you this afternoon."

"What's so hard about this? Grandma invites guests to come over, isn't it my duty as your granddaughter to cook a meal for them? Besides, Grandma Xu is the first friend you made in the city, so naturally you should invite her over."

Thinking about the arguments with Lao Xu these days, the corners of Grandma Du's mouth began to rise, but she still retorted stubbornly: "Who is friends with Lao Xu!"

"Okay, okay, if grandma doesn't want to be friends with Grandma Xu, I'll tell her when she comes over to stop bothering her in the future."

"No... How can a child talk to an elder like that? I can handle this myself."

"Oh~"

Du Wanying looked at her grandmother meaningfully.

"I'm not going to talk to you anymore, kid."

"Okay, then, grandma, you should have a good rest. There will be a delicious meal waiting for you soon."

After saying this, Du Wanying left the room and closed the door.

"Old Du, do you think Yingying is different now? She seems much more cheerful."

"Isn't it? Now even you dare to joke with me. Maybe you feel relieved now that you found a job. But isn't this good?"

"It's very good. I wish she could always be this good."

Du Wanying closed the door and went to the vegetable garden, "Mom, sister-in-law, where are our dad and the others?"

Tang Xiao replied gently, "Dad and your eldest and third brothers went to buy groceries. We can't be too shabby when Director Xu comes later."

"Yeah, let me help you pick the vegetables." Du Wanying said and was about to go forward to help.

"Go and have a rest. You'll be busy later."

Du Wanying thought about it and realized that it was indeed true. She would have to cook for so many people and would be very busy, so she said hello and went back to her room.

I might as well take this opportunity to take a bath in the space, so that I can be refreshed and ready to prepare lunch for everyone.

Du Wanying prepared some snacks and drinks and ate them while taking a bath. It wasn't that she didn't want to drink red wine, but the grapes weren't ripe yet.

But it feels pretty good to eat braised food, snacks, drink beverages and take a bath.

"Knock, knock, knock."

Hearing the knock on the door, Du Wanying quickly dried herself and put on her clothes.

"Mom and Dad, are the dishes ready? I'll go cook now."

"Yingying, you didn't get enough rest, why don't you take a rest for a while and leave the cooking to your dad and me."

Seeing his wife's eyes sweeping over him, Father Du nodded quickly, "Yes, if you are tired, go back to sleep for a while, and leave the cooking to me."

"Mom and Dad, I'm really fine." Du Wanying was afraid that her parents would not believe her, so she turned around.

Seeing that her daughter didn't seem to be in trouble, Du's mother said, "Okay, I'll go call your sister-in-law, and we'll help you together."

"Thank you for your hard work, mother." Du Wanying hugged her mother's arm and acted coquettishly.

"You kid, you only know how to make your mother happy. Okay, I'm going to call your sister-in-law."

After saying that, Du's mother took Du's father away. Du Wanying went back to her room, tidied up, and went to the kitchen.

There were a lot of vegetables piled up in the kitchen, including chicken and fish. I don’t know how my dad and brothers bought them.

Du Wanying began to pick and wash vegetables with swift movements, and the task of killing chickens and fish was left to her mother.

"Yingying, why are you so busy now? Leave these to me and your sister-in-law."

Du Wanying did not refuse, but said sweetly: "Thank you for your hard work, Mom and sister-in-law."

As soon as Aunt Sun entered the kitchen, she saw a lot of ingredients piled on the Du family's stove, and Du's mother was slaughtering a chicken!

"Hey, what's the big day today? How come the food is so good? They killed fish and chickens. I remember last night's meal wasn't as sumptuous as today's, right?"

Du's mother knew that Zhou Meijuan had bad intentions and didn't even want to pay any attention to her, thinking she was just a clown.

Instead, he looked at Du Wanying and said, "My dear, you made so many delicious dishes for your grandma as soon as she was discharged from the hospital. I'm jealous!

But grandma is being discharged from the hospital today, so she really needs to eat some good food to nourish herself. My daughter, you are just being filial, but don’t follow the example of some people who do things that will get you struck by lightning.”

"Mom, don't worry. I will definitely be filial to you, Dad, and Grandma. I will remember all the kindness you have shown me. I don't want to be struck by lightning."
