Bai Qianmo blinked her bright, watery eyes and looked at Gu Jueye with feigned surprise.
"Fifth Brother, is this the person this aunt is talking about?"
Even knowing that the other person was Gu Jueye's mother, in her opinion, a person who doesn't know how to respect others doesn't deserve to be respected.
Moreover, she still had too many unresolved questions about the fact that her fifth brother was Gu Jueye.
“Misunderstanding,” Gu Jueye said calmly.
Qin Lin completely failed to understand the meaning of her son's word "misunderstanding".
“Ah Ye, just tell her straight up that you can’t cook, let alone cook.”
Gu Jueye looked at Qin Lin without offering any further explanation.
He unbuttoned the two buttons on his shirt cuffs, rolled up his sleeves, and slowly stood up with a tall and handsome figure.
What would you like to eat?
He looked down at Bai Qianmo and asked.
"Anything you make is fine."
"Okay! Then I'll make a few of your favorite dishes."
After discussing it with Bai Qianmo, Gu Jueye turned around to face Old Master Gu, Old Madam Gu, Gu Zhizhou, and Qin Lin.
"I'll go to the kitchen first."
After saying that, he turned and walked towards the kitchen.
Gu Jueye went to the kitchen and wouldn't be out for a while. Bai Qianmo felt that she would suddenly become the "target of everyone's criticism," so she cleverly stood up after him.
"I'll help out."
Gu Jueye understood Bai Qianmo's meaning and nodded.
Qin Lin opened her mouth, wanting to call out to Bai Qianmo. She wanted to take advantage of A Ye's absence to give this brat a good beating.
If she's sensible, she'd better leave as soon as possible.
But with A-Ye present, she couldn't show her dislike for Bai Qianmo too obviously.
He sighed inwardly; it seemed he would have to find another opportunity.
Madam Gu glanced at Qin Lin, who had a furrowed brow.
“You should learn to take things less seriously now that A-Ye has come back safely. Sometimes what we elders think is good for the younger generation may be a shackle for them. A-Ye has always been very opinionated since he was a child, and now he is an adult.”
Qin Lin gave an awkward smile, but she felt quite uncomfortable inside.
She understood what the old lady meant by those words.
Want her to accept Bai Qianmo as her daughter-in-law? Hmph, as long as A-Ye and this girl aren't married, there are plenty of ways to break them up.
Moreover, even if they get married, she has plenty of ways to make them divorce.
She refused to believe that Ah Ye would really be ruined by this country bumpkin.
Qin Lin deliberately changed the subject, glancing towards the kitchen.
The kitchen in the Gu family's old house has a floor-to-ceiling glass door, so you can clearly see inside from the outside.
Besides the two chefs who were employed by the Gu family, Gu Jueye and Bai Qianmo were also seen busily working in the kitchen.
Gu Jueye was chopping vegetables, and Qin Lin was quite shocked to see her son's skillful knife work.
"I didn't expect Ah Ye to actually know how to cook?"
Madam Gu took a sip of tea and smiled faintly: "You have quite a misunderstanding about the fact that A-Ye never cooks."
"Ah Ye not only knows how to cook, but he's an excellent cook."
Madam Gu's words, though seemingly a polite statement of facts, were in fact like a punch to Qin Lin's face.
She actually learned what her son liked and was good at from someone else?
Half an hour later
There were six dishes and a soup on the table, just the right amount for dinner for five people.
Looking at the delicious-looking and fragrant dishes, Qin Lin tightened her grip on her chopsticks.
For the first time in twenty-eight years, the son she had carried for ten months and gave birth to was eating his cooking.
However, I didn't feel any emotion.
Because this meal was prepared for another woman.
"Ah Ye, why don't you make some fish or shrimp? I usually like to drink fish soup, it's nutritious and can supplement high protein."
Qin Lin deliberately revealed her preferences, hoping her son would cook for her next time.
As a result, Gu Jueye pondered for a moment.
"Qianmo is allergic to seafood."
Qin Lin: ...
KO.
Gu Zhizhou and Qin Lin had been married for over thirty years, and he knew exactly what his wife was thinking.
He knew that his wife was jealous of her future daughter-in-law.
Although he felt that his son doted on Bai Qianmo too much, his son liked her and the two elders tacitly approved, putting him in a difficult position.
"If you like fish soup, I'll make some for you in a couple of days." Gu Zhizhou picked up a piece of stir-fried bamboo shoots with his chopsticks.
He deliberately gave Gu Jueye a meaningful look.
"It's rare that you still remember your mom likes to eat bamboo shoots."
He gave his son a way out, hoping he could understand his good intentions.
Gu Jueye understood the meaning behind Gu Zhizhou's words and did not offer any explanation.
Bai Qianmo lowered her eyes, looking at the bamboo shoots in her bowl.
One of her favorite green vegetables, which unexpectedly happened to match Qin Lin's taste.
Well, it's fine, she's always jealous of herself.
The meal was finished in a less-than-harmonious atmosphere.
Although Gu Jueye's cooking was delicious, the atmosphere was different, and Bai Qianmo had only recently woken up and had used her energy to protect Gu Xinyi's life, so she was already a little tired and naturally didn't have a good appetite.
Gu Jueye noticed that she ate very little for dinner, and he originally planned to take her back to rest early after dinner.
Unexpectedly, after the meal, Old Master Gu called him directly to his study to discuss matters.
Bai Qianmo accompanied Old Madam Gu for a stroll in the front garden to aid digestion.
"Madam, we've received a call from Nanguang," Aunt Mei announced as she came to inform us.
Madam Gu smiled at Bai Qianmo.
"Bai girl, go wander around for a bit, I'm going to take this call."
"Okay, you go ahead with your work."
After Old Master Gu left with Aunt Mei, Bai Qianmo walked to a wooden bench not far away and sat down.
It was already evening, the season of transition from spring to summer, and the night breeze carried a slight chill.
Bai Qianmo stared blankly at the gray-blue sky. In the past two days, since she woke up, it felt like she had been immersed in a fast-paced world.
It's like waking up to find yourself suddenly transported to several years in the future.
Everything that happened in the past few years is a blank to her.
Although she was somewhat confused, fortunately, Fifth Brother was always by her side.
I believe that with her abilities, she will be able to adjust quickly.
A series of footsteps suddenly approached.
Bai Qianmo looked in the direction of the sound and saw a tall figure walking towards her in the dim light.
Although I couldn't see the other person's face clearly, I could feel an unfriendly aura emanating from them.
Qin Lin, wearing high heels and a bespoke high-class lady's outfit, exuded a sharp and commanding aura as she walked.
"Let's talk alone while Ah Ye isn't here."
Qin Lin got straight to the point, her expression cold.
Bai Qianmo wasn't surprised that Qin Lin wanted to talk to her alone.
"good."
