Chapter 80 Good things come late
Beijing City. Lu Family
In the kitchen
Lu Yujing rolled up the sleeves of his army green shirt, revealing a small section of his strong and slender forearm.
He held a kitchen knife in his right hand and a potato in his left hand, cutting it clumsily but seriously.
Old Mrs. Lu was standing by and watching with fear.
She was afraid that the shiny kitchen knife would accidentally cut her precious grandson's hand.
Nanny Wang Ma also frowned and twisted her apron.
She has been working in the Lu family for more than 20 years, and it can be said that she has watched Lu Yujing grow from birth to the big boy he is today.
Her husband died early and left her with no children. Seeing that she had no one to rely on, her husband's relatives bullied her.
They called her a disaster star and a jinx.
Later, he felt that she was an eyesore and kicked her out of the house.
Her sister-in-law from her mother's family blocked the door and wouldn't let her go back.
If it weren't for the kindness of Mrs. Lu who took her in when she was wandering around, she might have starved to death in some corner.
later……
She became Mrs. Lu's confidante.
Mr. Lu didn't allow Mrs. Lu to give Lu Yujing extra food, so Aunt Wang went to give Lu Yujing extra food.
Mr. Lu didn't allow Mrs. Lu to secretly deliver food to Lu Yujing in the army, so Aunt Wang went to deliver it.
Mr. Lu didn't allow Mrs. Lu to do it, but Aunt Wang did it secretly.
"Jingjing, why don't you let Aunt Wang come?" Old Mrs. Lu couldn't help but persuade again.
"Grandma, I can do it." Lu Yujing cut carefully, one knife at a time.
"Yes! Yu Jing, let Aunt Wang come. Tell Aunt Wang what you want to eat and she will cook it for you." Aunt Wang also chimed in.
She wasn't bragging.
Wang Ma’s cooking skills are so good that even if she goes to Yunlai Hotel, she would still be at the chef level.
"Grandma, Aunt Wang, please go out and don't bother me." Lu Yujing didn't even raise his head, and was busy with the work in his hands with a focused expression.
“Dang…dang…dang…”
Looking at Lu Yujing's stiff and clumsy movements in cutting vegetables, Mrs. Lu's heart almost jumped into her throat.
"Jingjing! What dish do you want to cook?" Mrs. Lu asked tentatively.
"Shredded potatoes with vinegar." Lu Yujing still didn't look up.
"Aren't the vinegar-fried potato shreds that Aunt Wang made delicious?" Old Mrs. Lu asked again.
"It's delicious!" Lu Yujing seemed to have gained some experience, and his vegetable cutting movements gradually became faster.
"It's delicious, so why do you make it yourself?" Mrs. Lu didn't understand.
"I can cook for myself when I'm alone in the staff quarters." Lu Yujing put down the sliced potatoes and began to practice shredding them.
"There's nothing to learn here. If you want to eat something, just give Aunt Wang a call. She'll prepare it and send it to you. If that's not possible, she can just go and make it for you." Aunt Wang said hurriedly.
"Yes! Jingjing, you are so busy every day, how can you have time to tinker with this? If you think the food in the cafeteria is not tasty, just ask Aunt Wang to prepare it and send it to you." Mrs. Lu immediately agreed.
"Others can eat it, why can't he? Is he more precious than others?" Old Master Lu stood at the kitchen door with a frown, looking dissatisfied.
Judging from his appearance, he must have been eavesdropping for quite a while.
Old Mrs. Lu glared at Old Mr. Lu, then turned and left.
Aunt Wang also tactfully picked up the trash beside her and followed closely behind, leaving space for the two of them.
"Grandpa!" Lu Yujing just turned his head to glance at him, then lowered his head and continued to work.
"Has the list for the year-end exercise been finalized?" Mr. Lu stepped into the kitchen.
"It's already been submitted." Lu Yujing cut his potato shreds slowly.
Maybe it was because the slices were not cut neatly, so the strips cut out are thick or thin, which looks particularly awkward.
"Why are you learning this? What's the matter? Are you planning to change your career to become a chef?" Old Master Lu snorted.
"Didn't you say that if you do it yourself, you will have enough food and clothing?" Lu Yujing picked out the thick potato shreds and cut them again.
"I asked you to find me a granddaughter-in-law as soon as possible and give me great-grandchildren! Why didn't you listen?" Old Master Lu sneered.
"How do you know I didn't listen? Your granddaughter-in-law is still studying. What can I do? I can't tell your granddaughter-in-law that my grandfather is waiting to hold his great-grandson, so you should stop studying and come home with me to have a baby." Lu Yujing put the shredded potatoes into a plate on the side.
"No, are you serious?" Mr. Lu said seriously.
"What are you serious about?" Lu Yujing tilted his head and looked at Mr. Lu.
"You and that little girl."
"More real than pearls."
"She's only seventeen years old, how can you be so shameless?" Mr. Lu frowned.
"Don't worry about whether I'm embarrassed or not, just wait to hold your great-grandson in your arms."
"Did the little girl promise you that? She's just waiting to hold her great-grandchildren?"
"I'm trying my best."
Mr. Lu was speechless.
After all the talk, it turns out that only one side is enthusiastic.
"Grandpa, I don't want anyone to disturb her life, and I don't want anyone to interfere with her decisions and life in the name of doing good for me." Lu Yujing said solemnly.
“…I got it!” Old Master Lu cursed inwardly, “You little bastard!”
Before anything happened, the elbow turned outward.
"That little girl is only seventeen. If you really want to be with her, you'll have a long time to wait." Mr. Lu couldn't help but reminded her.
"I'm not in a hurry!" Lu Yujing said stubbornly.
"Are you really not in a hurry?" Mr. Lu glanced at the plate of messily chopped potato shreds.
"Good food is never too late!" Lu Yujing stiffened his neck.
Mr. Lu sneered.
Good food is never too late, just...
Fish in the pot——
I can only worry!
"Since you like the girl, be nice to her and don't keep a stern face all the time. You'll scare her away and you won't even have a place to cry." In order to have a great-grandson as soon as possible, Grandpa Lu gave a conscientious advice.
"Don't worry about this. Just wait to hold your great-grandson in your arms." Lu Yujing grinned.
Mr. Lu sighed, smiled, shook his head, and turned away.
As long as he can hold his great-grandson, he can do whatever he wants.
"Shh!"
Seeing Mr. Lu coming out, Mrs. Lu, who was hiding at the corner of the stairs, popped her head out.
Mr. Lu looked at his wife who was like an old child, smiled helplessly, and walked over.
Perhaps because Mr. Lu was walking too slowly, Mrs. Lu reached out and pulled him.
"What happened again..."
"Shh!" Old Mrs. Lu covered Mr. Lu's mouth, tilted her head to look at the kitchen door, and after making sure that Lu Yujing had not come out, she dragged the old man back into the house.
Wait until the door closes.
She then asked in a low voice: "Jingjing, do you really want to be with that little girl?"
Mr. Lu nodded.
"Then have you asked him..."
"Your baby Jingjing said that he doesn't want anyone to disturb the little girl's life, and he doesn't want anyone to interfere with the little girl's decisions and life in the name of doing good for him." Old Master Lu interrupted her directly.
