Chapter 184 Ji Chen: I am her uncle, what’s wrong with picking up food for her?
Bai Lianwan was stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted. She glanced at Ji Chen beside her, her eyebrows slightly furrowed. She didn't know if it was because of anxiety or the spiciness of the chili pepper, but her face was red. She said hurriedly, "I don't want to be brother and sister with Ji Chen."
What's the point of being siblings? She doesn't want to be siblings!
I won’t like Uncle Lin anymore!
The uncles and Xie Jinglan beside him were all stunned when they saw Bai Lianwan's reaction.
Except for when they teased the little girl to snatch her food when they were young, they had never seen her so anxious.
Ji Chen didn't expect Bai Lianwan to react so strongly, but he didn't want to be like brother and sister.
Otherwise, things will be really messed up in the future.
Thinking of this, he immediately said, "This, this is really not good. Wanwan is my professor at school, and now privately I am her uncle. If we become a brother and sister, wouldn't the generations be very confusing?"
After hearing what Ji Chen said, the old men thought about it for a moment and it seemed to be true.
Sometimes Wanwan acts as Ji Chen's professor, sometimes as a junior, and sometimes as a younger sister. Given this girl's personality, she would really get so angry that she would jump up and down.
Wang Zhirong said thoughtfully, "Indeed, this generational hierarchy is too confusing. Ji Chen is Wanwan's uncle now anyway, so there's no need for him to be her brother."
Lin Changsheng also patted his head and said belatedly, "Look, I'm getting confused because of my age. The generations are indeed very confusing."
Xia Zhonggeng also nodded and looked at the two of them. "As long as you can get along harmoniously from now on and not be like you were a while ago, it will be fine." He continued to look at Ji Chen and warned, "Wanwan is just a little bad-tempered, but she has a good heart. If she ever makes things difficult for you or bullies you, tell me and your master's wife, but don't get angry with her. It's good that you two are like this now."
Bai Lianwan: “???”
Bully?
When did she bully Ji Chen?
Instead, it was the bad guy Ji Chen who often bullied her!
Some time ago, he even lied to her and called him dad...
Bai Lianwan was so upset that she wanted to cry, but since she didn't have to be a brother to Ji Chen, she didn't complain to her friends.
Ji Chen followed Xia Zhonggeng's words and said, "I know. You'll understand after spending more time with her. Wanwan is actually quite good."
Xia Zhonggeng's smile was a bit bitter, "Well, that's good, let's continue eating."
It’s pretty good, pretty good, why don’t you like Wanwan?
At this moment, he was actually a little selfish. It would be great if Ji Chen could break up with his girlfriend.
Maybe, the two little guys really have a chance.
But soon, Xia Zhonggeng denied this idea in his mind.
With a devoted personality like Ji Chen, I'm afraid once he makes up his mind, he won't change his mind, so breaking up is probably impossible.
After this little episode, the group started eating again.
Compared to before when he was busy eating, Ji Chen now paid more attention to the girl next to him, and from time to time he would use the serving chopsticks to put some food that was difficult for her to reach into her bowl.
Whenever someone at the dinner table stared at him because of his actions, he would, under that person's gaze, pick up another piece for Bai Lianwan, with a look that seemed to say, "I'm her uncle, what's wrong with taking care of her a little more?"
Of course, Ji Chen didn’t just pick up food for Bai Lianwan, he also picked up food for his master and his mistress Xia Zhonggeng and Xie Jinglan.
Even the other uncles took a lot of food. After all, these uncles were very nice to him, and today's table of food was also prepared by these old men.
But after the meal, the others were all very happy.
Only Lin Changsheng felt a little depressed.
Because, at the dinner table today, Xiao Ji picked up food for everyone and seemed to have forgotten himself.
Lin Changsheng said that he was injured a little bit, so how could he miss himself?
He actually wanted to eat the food that Xiao Ji picked up.
After dinner, Bai Lianwan took the initiative to clean up the dishes and went to the kitchen.
She can't cook, but she has no problem washing dishes.
Ji Chen was reluctant to let the little girl wash so many dishes by herself, so he said hello to his uncles and went to the kitchen with Bai Lianwan.
All the uncles looked at Ji Chen's leaving back and were amazed.
Sun Xiangxing said sincerely, "This kid is really good and very hardworking."
Zhou Xianlin said with a smile, "Yes, and very polite."
Wang Zhirong sighed, "He's also very handsome."
Elder Lin waved his hand, "He's more than just a handsome man, he's both talented and beautiful, right?!"
Xia Zhonggeng smiled and nodded, his old face full of pride. "That's right, so I said my little apprentice is very outstanding, right?"
Suddenly, four murderous gazes fell on Xia Zhonggeng.
How come Old Xia is so lucky to find such a precious little apprentice!
There was also a smile of appreciation on Xie Jinglan's elegant face. Xiao Ji was indeed a very good kid.
Today, when Ji Chen and Bai Lianwan were washing dishes in the kitchen, they were very well-behaved and washed the dishes in an orderly manner.
After all, there are so many elderly people at home today, and their blood pressure will be more or less high. If they are caught doing something, their blood pressure will definitely rise.
So Ji Chen still has some sense of propriety on this point.
Fortunately, he kept his distance from Bai Lianwan. During this period, Xie Jinglan came in a few times to help clean up, and both of them were busy with their work in an orderly manner.
After washing the dishes and cleaning up the kitchen, it was almost nine o'clock in the evening.
Ji Chen was just about to say goodbye to everyone, but he couldn't resist the enthusiasm of the old people and was pulled by Xia Zhonggeng and others to the study to study the precious calligraphy and paintings in Xia Zhonggeng's study.
Left out again, Bai Lianwan and Xie Jinglan chatted for a while and then went back to their rooms to rest.
In the study...
Ji Chen was holding Lin Changsheng's work and admiring it carefully.
Lin Changsheng stood aside, staring at Ji Chen without blinking, feeling a little nervous, waiting for him to make his comment.
Xia Zhonggeng and others were also very curious about what kind of evaluation Ji Chen would give to Lin Changsheng's work.
After all, this is their favorite painting of Lin Changsheng.
Ji Chen looked at the painting carefully for a long time, a smile unconsciously appearing on the corner of his mouth. He said, "The horses in this painting are one brown and one white, leaning on each other, peaceful and serene, leisurely and contented."
“Although there is no one in the painting, it gives people the feeling that there are people around.”
"In a corner of the meadow, two ancient trees stand tall and strong, their trunks mottled and vigorous, twisted and furious, their branches straining upwards, reflecting the state of trees that have just shed their leaves during the Mid-Autumn Festival."
"The white horse under the ancient tree is shown from the front, while the brown horse is shown from the side. Their different postures complement each other, adding to the vividness and agility of the painting, making the whole picture appear extremely vivid."
"Two fine horses strolled leisurely and enjoyed themselves."
"I think when Mr. Lin painted this picture, he probably hoped to live a free and unfettered life with his friends, just like the two horses in the picture."
After Ji Chen finished speaking, he looked at Lin Changsheng and said with a smile, "Actually, this is just my personal guess from the painting. If there are any discrepancies, please don't be offended, Mr. Lin."
At this moment, Lin Changsheng had fallen into a brief daze. Hearing Ji Chen's words, he became even more excited. He felt that his blood pressure had risen uncontrollably. He felt like he had met a confidant!
"Xiao Ji understands me! This is exactly the mood I want to express!"
Xia Zhonggeng and others standing by were also amazed.
Lin Changsheng had previously explained to them his state of mind when painting this picture, and it was almost the same as what Ji Chen understood.
So that's why they love this painting the most.
On weekdays when they have free time, a few old friends get together to chat, play chess, and talk about calligraphy and painting. It’s leisurely and comfortable!
What they never expected was that Ji Chen, such a young child, could realize such a state of mind after just a few minutes of looking at the painting!
At this moment, they had almost only one common thought in their minds!
This child is simply their confidant!
So, a few elderly people began to discuss how to add Ji Chen to their WeChat group chat.
