Lu Xiao is the head of the group, and Jiang Yan is the iconic figure of the family compound. If they are casual and fail to entertain the guests well, they will inevitably be criticized.
Lu Li is a person who pursues perfection, so how could he give others the opportunity to spread rumors?
What's more, it was his engagement party. He had been looking forward to it for a long time and even couldn't wait to get married. Why did the days go by so slowly?
He wished that May Day would come soon so that he could stay close to his sister in the house.
Jiang Yan looked at him with a look of disdain, "You should think about healthier things, hurry up and finish the work at hand, and let's sort out the matters related to the engagement, so as not to be in a rush when the time comes."
"Yes, sister-in-law." Lu Li smiled and quickened his movements.
After Jiang Yan finished washing up, Miao Xiuying brought out the food that was warming on the stove. While drinking the nourishing chicken soup, she sighed, "It's good to have a mother! I don't have to take care of the family.
Mom, I love you so much, from now on you don’t have to live with the old family anymore, stay with me, and I will take care of you in your old age.”
Miao Xiuying propped her chin with one hand, her face loving: "I raised you to be plump and white, it's pleasing to the eye. Mother added mushrooms to it, it's fresh and refreshing, not greasy, it tastes good!"
Jiang Yan took a bite, and the delicious taste exploded on the tip of her tongue. "Mom, your cooking skills are comparable to those of the chefs in the state-owned restaurants. It's their loss if you fail the exam!"
Miao Xiuying was a little embarrassed by her compliment, "Alright, Mom can only cook some home cooking, not a big pot meal. By the way, what were you discussing with Xiao Li just now?"
Jiang Yan told her everything in detail. Miao Xiuying clapped her hands and said, "I have already contacted the people. Don't worry, I will take care of it! You should have a good rest these two days. I see that you have lost a lot of weight."
The distress in her tone made Jiang Yan wonder if she had really lost weight.
As it turns out, I didn’t lose weight at all.
She said slowly, "Mom, thanks to you and Xiao Li feeding me, I have become rounder."
Miao Xiuying didn't care: "Being able to eat is a blessing. As long as you want to eat, mother will cook it for you. You are the backbone of the family. If anyone dares to look at you, mother will slap him and make him spiral up to heaven. You are the one with absolute status in the family."
Lu Li walked in and echoed: "That's right, sister-in-law is the sky, sister-in-law is the earth, sister-in-law is the courage for my whole family to survive."
This was an exaggeration, but it made Jiang Yan so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.
Jiang Yan looked at him, and Lu Li was puzzled. "Why are you looking at me?"
"What are you looking at?"
Lu Li blinked, his tone inexplicably cute, "Don't worry, I accept my fate!"
Miao Xiuying looked at the two of them, "What are you two talking about here? Aren't you going to deliver food to Jing Tian? Go quickly, it won't taste good if it gets cold. Where's Lu Yan? Why haven't I seen him so early in the morning?"
This kid has been running wild since he came to the island. He didn’t even bother to say hello to me before leaving the house. I won’t wait for him at lunch. Let him starve to death outside!”
Miao Xiuying was cursing, and Lu Li had a funny expression on his face, "Mom, he doesn't have a partner, you complain that he stays at home all day, never goes out, like he's in confinement.
He has a partner and wants to be with him, but you let him die outside. Is my second brother your biological child? Is he picked up? This is too hypocritical. Are we all so worthless? "
Miao Xiuying raised her eyebrows and spoke coldly, "That's right, you are all money-losing goods. Four sons are not as important as Xiaoyan in my heart. She is the only treasure of this family. Do you understand?"
Lu Li nodded hurriedly, "I understand!"
How could he not understand? Otherwise, what greeted him was Miao Xiuying's iron palm, which made him dizzy.
He carried the food box and reported to Miao Xiuyun: "Mom, I'll go take food to Jing Tian first. After sister-in-law finishes eating, you can ask her to go to the house to rest. I'll come back to clean up the dishes. Girls' hands must be carefully protected. We men do the rough and tiring work."
