The family sat down, and Old Bai was the first to pick up his chopsticks.
"You've come at the perfect time! The food has just been served and is still warm. Eat it while it's hot!"
After the old man spoke, the others at the table began to pick up their chopsticks and eat.
Bai Luoyu glanced at Gu Jueye every now and then.
This brother-in-law is elegant in demeanor and eloquent in speech; from his appearance, he seems to be a good match for the little crow.
Men can see men more clearly, and he could sense that Gu Jueye's affection for the little crow was genuine.
The thought of his idol being kidnapped by someone else left him feeling empty.
Raising his glass, Bai Luoyu said to Gu Jueye, "Mr. Gu, my sister is smart, kind, and incredibly capable. To be honest, you've really struck gold with her. I hope you'll cherish, love, and take good care of her in the future!"
Bai Luoyu's sudden words stunned everyone present.
Especially Bai Yitang, who was sitting next to him.
Intelligent? Kind?
Did Brother Yu come here drunk today?
He used to hate his sister, calling her a country bumpkin and uncultured.
Gu Jueye picked up the wine glass in front of him and looked at the young girl beside him. His calm and clear eyes were filled with a gentle and shimmering light.
"I will!"
Although it's only three words, I feel that these three words carry so much promise and weight.
As a fellow man, Bai Luoyu could tell.
Although I was upset, I was also quite happy for my idol.
He tilted his head back and drank the entire glass of wine down his throat.
The wine was osmanthus wine from Bai Lao's collection. Although it wasn't strong, it still burned the throat. After downing a cup in one gulp, Bai Luoyu's fair face quickly turned red.
"I'll drink it, you can drink as you please!" Bai Luoyu turned his wine glass over to make sure it was empty.
Although that's what she said, she actually just wanted to make things difficult for Gu Jueye.
How can she not pay a price for having her wonderful younger sister stolen by this man?
Gu Jueye raised his wine glass, pursed his lips, and drank it down.
He also drank the entire glass of wine, but his movements were extremely elegant and composed, and his face remained completely unchanged after drinking.
Bai Qianmo rested her chin on her hand, staring at the incredibly handsome man beside her, her eyes sparkling like stars in a lovesick daze.
Wow, handsome men can look amazing no matter what they do!
"Girl, have a piece of goose meat!" Old Bai picked up a piece of goose meat with his chopsticks and placed it in Bai Qianmo's bowl.
His expression was tense, but he thought to himself: This girl is usually calm and composed, but when she's with Gu Jueye, she seems to have lost her mind.
Staring straight at a man, what kind of behavior is that!
Bai Qianmo withdrew her hand, picked up her chopsticks, and glanced at Old Bai.
She knew exactly what message the old man was trying to convey, but she didn't take it seriously.
A beautiful face is meant to be admired, and besides, Mr. Gu's face belongs to her; it would be a waste not to look at it.
This way
Han Songyan had been watching Bai Qianmo closely, and at the opportune moment, she spoke with a smile.
"Qianmo, try this sweet and sour pork ribs. Your aunt said you really like this dish. This is what I made. It's my first time making it, so I don't know if it will suit your taste."
Xu Hualan, who was standing nearby, laughed and said, "Your mom has been busy in the kitchen for a long time, and she even burned her hands."
Bai Qianmo's eyelids twitched slightly, and she glanced at Han Songyan's hand holding the chopsticks.
Although it was just a quick glance, I noticed the band-aid on the back of her hand.
"Thank you!" she said coldly as everyone watched her, and picked up her chopsticks to eat a piece of sweet and sour pork rib.
Actually, the taste is just average. It's too sweet and not salty enough, so it can be a bit cloying.
However, knowing it was Han Songyan's thoughtfulness, she still finished eating.
Seeing Bai Qianmo eat the dishes she had personally prepared, Han Songyan was so moved that she almost burst into tears on the spot.
Although her relationship with her daughter was still strained, she could sense that Qianmo was a person who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside.
As long as she continues to treat her daughter well, she believes that the two of them will be able to reconcile in the future.
She looked forward to that day.
At the dinner table
Despite suffering from a stroke, Mr. Bai couldn't resist his love of alcohol and drank one cup after another.
Bai Qianmo finally reached out and stopped him just as he was about to drink his fourth cup.
"Have you forgotten the doctor's instructions?"
The old man took a bite of fish, neither annoyed nor angry, and even looked at his serious-looking granddaughter with a beaming smile.
"Haha, the doctor said I shouldn't drink alcohol too often!"
"Remove 'frequently'!"
The old man is getting more and more cunning with age; the doctor clearly said he shouldn't drink alcohol.
"I haven't had a drink in a long time. Today is a family gathering, and on such an important day, we should at least have a few symbolic drinks to celebrate," the old man protested.
He was a heavy drinker and loved to taste all kinds of fine wines. Those who knew him knew that Bai Yixian could give up anything in his life, but he would never miss out on fine wine.
Although he is receiving good treatment and care after suffering a stroke, his doctor has told him he must abstain from alcohol, which would undoubtedly make his life boring.
Before Qianmo returned, he still insisted on having a couple of drinks every now and then.
The whole family couldn't do anything about him; after all, he was the head of the household.
However, after Qianmo returned, she completely changed the old man's bad habit.
Previously, I had to drink two cups every three days, but now I've changed to a habit of not drinking two cups a month.
He dotes on his granddaughter, so he has to obey her orders.
