Chapter 255: Finally, I don’t have to worry about sending my master’s wife away
Soon, Ji Chen came to the dining table and began to help set the table. At the same time, he looked at Xie Jinglan and asked with a smile, "Master's wife, what kind of juice do you like? I'll make it for you."
Xie Jinglan smiled elegantly and replied, "It's all right."
Xiao Ji is a really good kid.
But when Ji Chen heard what Xie Jinglan said, he felt a little troubled.
It will be all right……
Last time, the kiwi juice was snatched away by the master because the master's wife didn't like it.
After thinking for a moment, Ji Chen looked at Xie Jinglan and said, "Then Master Madam, I'll go make some juice."
"Go ahead."
Ji Chen said hello to Xie Jinglan and went to the kitchen.
He went to the refrigerator to see what kind of fruits were there.
It would be best if it was a green fruit. After all, his physical condition improving potion was light green, and it would be less visible when mixed with green.
In the kitchen...
Bai Lianwan was standing with her hands behind her back, watching Xia Zhonggeng cooking the pot without blinking, so engrossed that she didn't even notice Ji Chen coming in.
Ji Chen didn't bother the little girl from upgrading and evolving her dark cuisine.
He walked to the refrigerator, opened it, and a gust of cool air instantly hit him in the face.
In addition to a lot of fresh vegetables, there are also a variety of fruits in the refrigerator.
Ji Chen scanned the many fruits and soon noticed the five-pointed star-shaped, tender green fruit, the carambola.
This is the only fruit in the refrigerator, besides kiwi, that can be squeezed into green juice.
Without thinking too much, Ji Chen took out three large star fruits from the refrigerator, along with a lemon, walked to the sink, turned on the faucet, and started washing them.
At this moment, Lin Qingya had just finished tidying up the kitchen counter. Seeing Ji Chen's figure, she was stunned for a moment and subconsciously greeted him, "Brother-in-law, why are you in?"
"I'll squeeze some juice." Ji Chen responded casually.
Bai Lianwan and Xia Zhonggeng, who were standing by, were slightly stunned when they heard Lin Qingya's greeting.
Bai Lianwan turned to look at Ji Chen, then at Lin Qingya, wondering why Qingya called him "brother-in-law" again.
Fortunately, grandma wasn't in the kitchen, otherwise, we wouldn't have to eat today's meal.
But Grandpa...
Thinking of this, Bai Lianwan cast her gaze on Xia Zhonggeng again. The latter paused for a moment in his stir-frying, but quickly reacted. He also looked towards the kitchen door, coughed twice, and said, "Qingya sounds quite catchy, but for now, keep it to yourself so your grandmother doesn't hear you."
If he hadn't been concerned about his wife, he would have asked Ji Chen to call him grandpa directly.
Lin Qingya stuck out her tongue and chuckled, "Be careful next time, be careful next time."
Ji Chen was washing the carambolas, his brows slightly furrowed, and he felt uneasy.
If he revealed his cards today, he didn't know how his master's wife would react.
But he would definitely be very angry, and more likely, he would not be allowed to continue dating Bai Lianwan...
But even so, he couldn't hide it from the old man anymore.
The longer he kept the secret, the deeper his sense of guilt became, and the more uneasy he became.
Soon, Ji Chen washed the star fruit and lemon, cut the star fruit into small pieces and put them in the fruit basket, walked to the kitchen counter by the window, plugged in the juicer, opened the lid of the cup, poured in the star fruit pieces, a small amount of honey, pure water, and a few drops of lemon juice to prevent the juice from oxidizing, covered the cup lid, turned on the switch, and did it in one go!
Xia Zhonggeng was also busy. He put the last dish on a plate and said to the people in the kitchen, "Okay, take the dishes out and we can eat."
Lin Qingya nodded actively, "Okay, okay!"
Bai Lianwan had already brought a large bowl of tofu and crucian carp soup and walked out of the kitchen cautiously.
Ji Chen looked at the steaming soup in Bai Lianwan's hand, and his heart tightened inexplicably. He strode towards her and said, "I'll serve it."
While Ji Chen was speaking, he also held the edge of the ceramic basin with his hands.
Bai Lianwan frowned slightly and wanted to speak, but met Ji Chen's gaze that could not be rejected, so she could only let go of her hand obediently.
"Be careful, this is very hot."
"Um."
Ji Chen responded, took the carp soup from Bai Lianwan's hand, and walked out of the kitchen.
It was because it was hot that he came to take it.
Otherwise, what if his little white rabbit is burned?
When Lin Qingya and Xia Zhonggeng saw this scene, they inexplicably felt a little full...
However, Xia Zhonggeng was more relieved.
After all, he, the grandson-in-law, really loves his granddaughter.
He has to be nicer to his grandson-in-law in the future, since his granddaughter already has someone who loves her.
Besides, this little girl is also sticking to Ji Chen now.
Especially the voice of her acting coquettishly and asking Ji Chen to hold her that night, he hadn't heard that for many years.
…
Soon, a table full of sumptuous meals was served, and Ji Chen's juice was also squeezed.
Everyone sat down, and Ji Chen poured juice for each of them one by one. He quietly mixed the physical improvement potion into the juice he was going to give to Xie Jinglan, and then handed it to her with a smile, "Master's wife, your juice."
This time, Xie Jinglan looked at the juice that Ji Chen handed over, and without hesitation, she reached out to take it.
Although she didn't like the star fruit juice very much, she had to drink it since Xiao Ji poured it. Last time, it was robbed by Lao Xia halfway, so this time it wouldn't be possible!
After Ji Chen handed the juice to Xie Jinglan, he quickly poured himself a glass and said to the two elders across the table, "Master, Master's wife, you can't drink alcohol, so today I will use juice instead of wine to toast you two. Thank you for taking care of me during this time."
Xia Zhonggeng and Xie Jinglan both had kind smiles on their faces, holding the juice in their hands and clinking glasses with Ji Chen.
"Xiao Ji, don't be so polite in the future. We are all family."
"Yes, you are Lao Xia's apprentice. We like you very much too. There's no need to be so formal."
As Xie Jinglan spoke, she and Xia Zhonggeng took the juice in their hands and drank it all in one gulp.
I couldn't help but think that Ji Chen was a very well-educated and polite kid.
Lin Qingya, who was standing by, couldn't help but sigh in her heart. There are really not many people who can deal with elders so well at the age of 19. Her brother-in-law is really good.
Bai Lianwan looked at this scene, feeling relieved but also a little nervous.
If I go with Ji Chen to meet his parents in the future, I may not be as talkative and natural as Ji Chen is in front of his grandparents, and I don’t know whether his uncle and aunt will like me.
Even thinking about it now makes her a little nervous.
Xie Jinglan drank the carambola juice, her eyes brightening. After savoring it for a moment, she looked at Ji Chen and said, "So carambola juice is so delicious?"
Xia Zhonggeng put down the cup and said with a smile, "The juice squeezed by Xiaoji must be delicious!"
"As long as Master and Madam like it, it's fine."
Ji Chen watched Xie Jinglan drink the juice. Although he greeted the two elders with a calm smile on his face, his heart was pounding in his chest and he was extremely excited!
Finally! Finally, I don’t have to worry about sending my wife away!
