Wen Maidong bought some groceries and squatted in the kitchen, not daring to come out. There was nothing he could do; his current situation was incredibly complicated. He hadn't gotten the girl he wanted to pursue, and his future father-in-law was guarding him, so he didn't dare to go out.
With a nervous and anxious heart, he managed to prepare a meal. It was really not easy. The pressure was so great that in the winter, his clothes were almost soaked with sweat.
"Uncle Shen, Niuniu, it's time for dinner..."
The food was served, seven or eight dishes on the table, all delicious and fragrant. Wen Maidong's cooking skills were acquired through training, because to pursue a girl, one must be good at everything.
"Beef brisket stewed with potatoes... Not bad, not bad."
Chen Chenfeng looked at the food on the table. There was nothing his daughter didn't like. He looked up to Wen Maidong. This kid was very good at taking care of people.
"Uncle Shen, your favorite braised pork."
Wen Maidong said as he poured a bowl of soup and handed it to Chen Yun. Drinking soup before eating warms the stomach and is good for health.
Shen Yun also took it naturally. The tacit understanding between the two was unquestionable. Shen Chenfeng looked on calmly. He had already decided to make Wen Maidong his son-in-law, but he still needed to be properly reformed before he could be officially recognized.
"Niuniu, accompany me to the military compound tomorrow. I have something to tell you."
"Uncle Shen, what's the matter with going to the military compound?"
Wen Maidong frowned beside him. He didn't think Niuniu could be of much help. Especially if there was a good partner. The thought of this made Wen Maidong feel mixed. Jealousy, almost like a tantrum.
"Of course there's something important we need to discuss, Maidong! I heard you've also started a company with our two useless kids. They have things to do, don't you have anything to do?"
The lethality was immense. Shen Chenfeng acknowledged it, but he still needed to defend his son. Don't think he didn't understand Wen Maidong's actions. He just wanted to isolate everyone from Niu Niu's attention. He didn't even consider whether he was willing or not. There seemed to be a few other good kids in the military compound, and Shen Chenfeng planned to include them as backups.
“Yes, but I can handle it.”
"Niuniu, finish eating quickly. After you finish eating, let's go for a walk."
Glancing at Wen Maidong, Chen Chenfeng would never tell him what he was thinking. Old ginger is always the best, because that's why they say the older generation has eaten more salt than the younger generation has eaten rice.
"good……"
Shen Yun nodded obediently. Naturally, this look of Shen Yun also pleased Shen Chenfeng, while Wen Maidong on the side was extremely upset. Seeing that the situation was getting worse day by day, he was almost unable to help but want to show his cards.
night
Shen Yun had already entered the research lab, while Shen Chenfeng was in the study. He was looking at the report in his hand while waiting for the person who would come. This person was obviously Wen Maidong. That silly boy had been hesitant all day, making everyone feel worried for him.
“Knock, knock, knock…”
There was a rhythmic knock on the door, and Shen Chenfeng raised an eyebrow. Speak of the devil, and he will appear.
"Uncle Shen..."
Wen Maidong looked at Chen Chenfeng sitting in the study and felt a little timid, but he quickly returned to normal. His calmness had always been his disguise, so he simply stayed true to it.
"I knew you would come, so sit down! Let's have a good chat."
Chen Chenfeng turned the desk into a tea room, fished out a set of tea sets from the side, and began to wash them with boiled water, enjoying the tranquility of the moment. It was a rare day, and he had never expected to chat with the silly boy Wen Maidong.
Wen Maidong sat upright, watching Shen's father's movements. He didn't have the luxury of such leisure. He was under immense pressure. One was the pressure Shen Chenfeng brought upon him, and the other was his own inner anxiety. He wasn't sure if he could achieve his goal today, nor did he know what the future would hold. A sense of uneasiness lingered in his heart.
"Da Hong Pao, you are in for a treat."
Pulling out a can of Dahongpao tea from the side of the bookcase, Shen Chenfeng felt a pang of pain. He had to use a little less. These were gifts from the chieftain, too precious, too hard to come by. If it weren't for today, Shen Chenfeng wouldn't have used this tea. He thought, "You can't catch a wolf without risking your child." He didn't feel so bad about it anymore.
"Um...Uncle Shen..."
Wen Maidong doesn't know how to taste tea, drink tea, or even the art of tea. He came here just to get Shen Chenfeng to agree to what he wanted to do.
"What? Don't want to drink?" Raising his hand, Shen Chenfeng glanced at Wen Maidong.
"No."
Wen Maidong waved his hand and picked up the teacup. The Dahongpao tea had the richest aroma, filling the room with fragrance as it brewed. The fragrance permeated the air, making it impossible not to calm down. He closed his eyes slightly and took a deep breath.
“It smells so good…”
The tea is rich and fragrant, overflowing with aroma. Slowly inhale the tea, savor it, and swallow it gently. The fragrance lingers on your lips and teeth, the tea flavor lingering. Da Hong Pao truly lives up to its reputation, a rare treasure.
"Well, it seems that my skills have not fallen behind."
Shen Chenfeng also took a sip and smiled. His craftsmanship was not inferior and deserved praise.
"Uncle Shen, I want to pursue Niuniu. I will treat her well. I hope you can agree."
"oh……"
He raised an eyebrow at the impulsive boy in front of him. He really thought he would agree to hand his daughter over to another person? As a father, he was uneasy about handing his daughter over to anyone.
"I can accept marrying into the family."
Wen Maidong simply threw all his conditions in front of his future father-in-law. He didn't believe that he could find someone with better conditions and stronger abilities than him, and someone who had been with him for as long as he had.
"Marry into the wife's family?" Shen Chenfeng was obviously a little moved, but he regained his composure after a moment.
He could consider it, but he didn't necessarily want her to marry into the Shen family. His own daughter didn't need to listen to those people's gossips; she deserved the best.
"Uncle Shen...my grandfather also agreed with my choice. He said that everything depends on my own will."
Therefore, there is no need to worry about any problems, nor do you need to think about whether he can really do it. If Niuniu agrees, he has no objection and will not hesitate at all. It really doesn't matter whether he marries into the wife's family or not. He just hopes that Niuniu can agree for them to be together.
"I understand. I won't interfere in what happens between you and Niuniu. As for whether you stay together or separate, it's up to you."
Chen Chenfeng wouldn't tell Wen Maidong; he'd rather see him laugh. Besides, he'd already agreed with his daughter to observe the child for a few years. If he could persevere, they'd all be willing to accept him.
