Chapter 966: Not ashamed, but proud
When Chen Yuan helped to clear the table, Mother Cheng took the empty plate from his hand with a smile: "Chen Yuan, go sit in the living room. I can clean it myself."
After saying that, he looked at his daughter again: "Cheng Xiaoyu, don't make trouble for me, go and make a pot of tea quickly. It's the first time Chen Yuan has come back to our house, so you should accompany him."
Only then did Cheng Xiaoyu give up the idea of washing the dishes and took Shi Chenyuan out of the kitchen.
The two of them went to wash their hands together first.
In front of the sink, Xiao Yu whispered to Shi Chenyuan, "We have a clear division of labor in our family. My dad is responsible for cooking and mopping the floor, and my mom is responsible for washing dishes and doing the laundry. Basically, my dad does the housework that my mom doesn't like to do."
Shi Chenyuan nodded in understanding. No wonder his uncle left as soon as he finished his meal and was still watching TV in the living room calmly.
"What about you? What are you responsible for?"
Cheng Xiaoyu blinked and was stunned for a moment by his question.
What is her responsibility at home?
After thinking about it, I realized that besides eating and sleeping...
Cheng Xiaoyu laughed dryly twice: "I don't do anything, but I am their happy pill. Being happy is also important!"
Shi Chenyuan hissed and flicked the water droplets on Xiaoyu's face, "Instead of feeling ashamed, you're actually proud of it!"
Cheng Xiaoyu wanted to fight back, but unfortunately her hands had already been wiped.
Moreover, after Shi Chenyuan finished playing the piano, he wiped his hands and left, leaving her no chance to fight back.
The two of them sat down in the living room. Cheng Xiaoyu was about to make tea, but Shi Chenyuan asked her to wait a moment, and he brought the tea leaves over.
In fact, when he entered the door, he wanted to talk about the gift, but he was busy eating, so he didn't say much.
Now that everyone was free, Shi Chenyuan took the gift.
The two gift boxes contained tea and were given to Mr. Cheng.
Shi Chenyuan said respectfully, "This is my first time at your home, so I'm a bit abrupt and don't know what gift to bring. Xiaoyu mentioned that you love tea, and a friend of mine runs a tea garden in the south. He has some aged white tea, so I brought you two jars. Please try them. I don't drink much tea, so I don't really understand it."
Mr. Cheng loves drinking tea. When he heard that it was old white tea, he was very interested. He opened the can, smelled it, and nodded in appreciation.
Father Cheng told them that there is a saying about white tea: one year old is tea, three years old is medicine, and seven years old is treasure. This means that the older the white tea is, the higher its value. The tea that Chen Yuan brought was at least five or six years old.
Shi Chenyuan smiled and nodded: "It's true, my friend said this is five-year-old white tea."
"The tea is good, thank you for taking the trouble."
"If you drink well, I'll ask him to deliver it to you regularly in the future."
Father Cheng smiled and waved his hands: "Oh, no, no, that would be too much trouble for you."
“It should be.”
Cheng Xiaoyu sat next to them and listened to the two people chatting. Although they were just polite words, she could see that her father was becoming more and more satisfied with Shi Chenyuan.
Shi Chenyuan's respect and concern for her parents also made her feel happier, so she volunteered, "Then let me make you a nice cup of tea!"
Father Cheng nodded and said, "Go ahead. Let me see if there's any regression."
"It's impossible to retreat, just wait~"
After saying that, she took the tea leaves and knelt down by the tea table in the living room.
Cheng Xiaoyu is not blindly confident. She has been watching her father make tea since she was a child, so she has been influenced by him. Therefore, although she is not good at other things, she has some knowledge of tea ceremony.
At this moment, she was kneeling by the teapot, heating the cups and pots, putting tea in and washing the tea leaves... every move she made was graceful and natural.
This also made Shi Chenyuan's gaze deepen.
It turns out that this little girl has this side to her.
