Zhang Xiao'e happened to bring two dishes out of the kitchen. When she saw Lin Jiaojiao, her eyes lit up.
"Jiaojiao, you're back. Come over and have dinner. Let's try my cooking!"
Lin Jiaojiao came forward with a smile and flattered him.
"Just looking at this color makes my mouth water. Auntie, your cooking skills are truly amazing!"
Zhang Xiao'e was so praised that she couldn't stop smiling.
"As long as you like it, wait, there are a few more dishes!"
Ji Lan tilted his head and muttered softly.
"Flatterer!"
Lin Jiaojiao had excellent hearing and didn't care at all when she heard the whisper.
She glanced at Ji Lan and continued to laugh.
"Although I can't cook, I'm used to helping my mom at home. Auntie, let me help you!"
“No, no.”
Zhang Xiao'e didn't dare ask Lin Jiaojiao to help her. She just hoped that this fairy-like person would not dislike her family.
Not only is she good-looking, she is also kind-hearted and, most importantly, hardworking.
Look at what a terrible thing she gave birth to, Zhang Xiao'e glanced at Ji Lan who was shaking her legs and said unhappily.
"Girl Lan, hurry up and serve everyone some food!"
“No!”
"Believe it or not, I'll beat you!"
Ji Lan could only go to serve the rice reluctantly.
After the food was served and everyone was seated.
Zhang Xiao'e introduced Ji Lan with a smile.
"Lan girl, this is Jiaojiao, your second brother's girlfriend. Why don't you call someone quickly?"
"I'm not screaming!" Ji Lan rolled her eyes resentfully, picked up the chopsticks and was about to eat.
Zhang Xiao'e quickly snatched the chopsticks from her hand and spoke seriously.
"Why don't you listen?"
“I’m hungry!”
Ji Lan still didn't respond, and was about to pick up the chopsticks with a pout.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stretched out his hand, he was hit by chopsticks that suddenly flew over.
Ji Lan held her injured hand and looked at her second brother who was hitting her with chopsticks across from her with a wronged look.
"Why did you hit me, brother?"
"How do you talk?"
"I'm just hungry."
"Call someone!" Ji Huaian said with a cold face.
Ji Lan knew that he couldn't escape, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Lin Jiaojiao was even more angry.
"I won't scream, I won't scream!"
"you……"
"That's enough." Seeing that Ji Huaian was about to get angry, Lin Jiaojiao smiled and tried to stop him.
"I think my sister is very cute. It's normal for a child of her age to be a little rebellious. I believe that after spending some time together, she will naturally get better."
When Ji Huaian saw Lin Jiaojiao being so gentle, his heart warmed.
But before he could say anything, Ji Lan on the opposite side spoke first.
"Oh! Pretending to be kind! Don't think I don't know what you're up to."
"Lan girl, there has to be a limit to mischief."
Seeing that her mother was really angry, Ji Lan gritted her teeth, lowered her head, and said nothing more.
She didn't notice the deep meaning that flashed across the eyes of Lin Jiaojiao, who was sitting opposite her.
Such a rebellious little girl needs more than just a beating.
Originally, she didn't care about her that much, but she never expected that this little girl would do such a thing in the future.
It will also affect Ji Huaian and even her.
That’s not just a matter of education.
But she was new here.
Everything needs to be considered carefully.
No matter how extreme Ji Lan was, she was still the girl he had raised for ten years, and blood was thicker than water.
Even if Ji Huaian likes her as much as he does, can a few days of love be compared to the love he has for his sister whom he has been with for ten years?
Could Zhang Xiao'e treat her more lovingly than her own daughter?
Lin Jiaojiao was confident that she didn't have the ability to do so, so even if they stood up for her now, if something happened later, it might still be blamed on her.
Ji Huaian was just someone she thought would be a good marriage partner.
As to whether one can be truly sincere, that remains to be seen.
Lin Jiaojiao smiled and tried to smooth things over, and the atmosphere among the three of them instantly became warm and lively.
The expressions of the two people opposite became increasingly cold.
Zhou Xiaolian really didn't understand. She had clearly told the woman about her ugly face before she came back, so why was Ji Huaian still so nice to her?
Could it be that this woman is really a fox spirit?
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. He picked up a piece of chicken with his chopsticks and put it into Ji Huaian's bowl.
He deliberately raised his voice and spoke.
"Brother Huai'an, try this!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the three people who were chatting stopped.
When Ji Huaian looked at her, his expression instantly cooled.
"I can do it myself."
But Zhou Xiaolian disagreed.
"How can the one you pick up be the same as the one I pick up for you? Ever since you left for the army, you've rarely come back. You don't even know that I really..."
Her cheeks turned red mid-sentence.
"I was very happy when Xiaolan told me you were back."
As he spoke, he picked up another dish for Ji Huaian.
It was as if she didn't notice the coldness coming from Ji Huaian and the embarrassment on Zhang Xiaoe's face at all.
The atmosphere is getting colder.
Lin Jiaojiao spoke at the right time.
"I remember you didn't seem to like these dishes. Coincidentally, you and Lan Yatou haven't used their bowls and chopsticks yet, so we can just swap them. I saw this little girl's eyes were fixed on these two dishes just now, so she must like them very much!"
"Don't move! Who said I like it?"
Lin Jiaojiao stood there in surprise.
"You don't like the food this lesbian picked up?"
"What nonsense are you talking about! I didn't say anything like that!"
Ji Lan hurried to see Zhou Xiaolian, and in just a short while, Lin Jiaojiao had already changed the bowls and chopsticks for Ji Huaian and Ji Lan.
