Chapter 256 The sky cleared up, the rain stopped, and the little white rabbit felt that he was fine again
In order to let Xie Jinglan stay in a good mood and finish the meal, Ji Chen didn't pick up much food for Bai Lianwan today.
Xie Jinglan should have been happy to see that Ji Chen no longer picked up food for his granddaughter, but for some reason, she couldn't feel happy.
Xia Zhonggeng felt the same way, thinking that Xiao Ji was really influenced by Xie Jinglan.
This won’t do!
Bai Lianwan seemed to have noticed something and couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.
Ji Chen clearly never cared so much about his grandmother before, so why did he seem particularly afraid of her today?
Especially before meals, he refused to be hugged by his grandmother because he was afraid she would find out. He never did that before...
Did grandma say something to him in private?
Thinking of this, Bai Lianwan suddenly felt that the food in the bowl was no longer fragrant.
Not only Bai Lianwan, but even the sugar-eating maniac Lin Qingya suddenly felt that today's meal was not sweet enough.
Although Xia Zhonggeng was in a bad mood, he still reminded Ji Chen, "Xiao Ji, you have to eat all of this pot of chicken stewed with mushrooms to replenish your body. Wanwan and Qingya and I have made other soups, but your master's wife and I are not suitable for drinking these. We can just drink some carp soup."
Ji Chen looked at the pot of chicken and mushroom soup filled with ginseng slices, feeling like crying but unable to do so.
This is a lot of supplements...
The problem is that there is no way to make up for him...sigh.
With a sigh in his heart, Ji Chen still smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'll drink it later."
After all, this is Master’s intention.
When Lin Qingya saw Ji Chen's soup, she suddenly remembered, "Wanwan and I's black chicken soup should be ready by now. I'll go check it out."
After saying hello, Lin Qingya got up from the dining table and went to the kitchen.
Xia Zhonggeng looked at Lin Qingya who was running away and warned her, "Be careful not to get burned."
"Okay—"
After a while, Lin Qingya came out of the kitchen carrying an electric stew pot.
"Okay, okay, Wanwan and I'm ready for our soup!"
When Bai Lianwan heard Lin Qingya's words, she quickly stood up and moved the plates on the dining table.
Bai Lianwan and Lin Qingya both like the American ginseng and black chicken soup cooked by Xia Zhonggeng.
The black chicken soup was served, and Bai Lianwan served a bowl to Lin Qingya and herself. However, she felt that there was something wrong with the black chicken soup today, but she couldn't put her finger on it.
The two of them sat back in their dining chairs, gently scooped up the soup from their bowls, took a sip, and both frowned slightly.
Lin Qingya smacked her lips. "Why do I feel like today's black chicken soup seems to be missing something?"
"Hmm... Is it because I didn't start stewing right away?" Bai Lianwan pursed her lips, feeling a little depressed.
Today's black chicken soup doesn't taste good.
This is really sad for a foodie.
Xia Zhonggeng looked at his two granddaughters' reactions, stood up, and scooped out a scoop of black chicken soup from the electric stew pot. His face suddenly looked a little embarrassed, and he said, "This... I forgot to put in the American ginseng..."
American ginseng black chicken soup without American ginseng is like a soup without soul...
As he spoke, he frowned slightly again, "I remember I put it in, I took it out and soaked it in advance."
After Xia Zhonggeng finished speaking, Bai Lianwan at the dining table subconsciously turned her gaze to Ji Chen.
Lin Qingya even stood up and said, "No way, no way, grandpa wouldn't have put American ginseng in Ji Chen's soup, right?"
Xia Zhonggeng smiled awkwardly, "It's possible. After all, the materials were all downloaded at the same time today, so there might be some confusion."
At this time, Ji Chen scooped up a few pieces of peanut-sized substance from the bowl and said with a wry smile, "This seems to be... American ginseng..."
No wonder the whole bowl of soup tastes like ginseng...
He must have been overfed by the soup given by his master today...
When Lin Qingya saw the American ginseng in Ji Chen's spoon, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly. How could she have the mood to eat anymore? She was almost jealous to death, "I don't love you anymore, I don't love you anymore!"
Bai Lianwan was also depressed. She and Lin Qingya would no longer have any status at home!
In the past, their grandparents doted on them the most, but until Ji Chen came, their doting attitude changed instantly.
hateful……
Xia Yigeng smiled awkwardly, "It's...it's okay. Xiaoji just needs to replenish his body anyway."
"Yes, Xiao Ji, you should eat more. It doesn't matter if you can't finish the chicken, but you must drink the soup. All the nutrients are in the soup." Xie Jinglan also reminded.
As Xie Jinglan spoke, she couldn't help but feel a little confused. She slept very well yesterday. It was only seven o'clock now, so why did she feel so sleepy?
At this moment, the three children sitting at the dinner table were not in a particularly good mood after hearing what the two elders said.
Bai Lianwan and Lin Qingya lost the love of their grandparents.
Ji Chen was worried about overdoing it because he received too much care from the two elders...
But in the end, the three of them finished their soup and their meal.
Xie Jinglan couldn't hold on any longer after putting down her bowl and chopsticks. She said goodbye to everyone and went back to her room to take a nap.
She was so sleepy.
Ji Chen followed Bai Lianwan and Lin Qingya to clean up the dishes, and couldn't help frowning slightly.
It's past seven o'clock now. By the time Master's wife wakes up from her nap, it will probably be midnight and she will probably continue sleeping.
Besides, it would be inconvenient for him to suddenly go to her in the middle of the night to talk about this. Wouldn't he have to wait until tomorrow?
Tomorrow is fine too, let my wife have a good sleep today.
In fact, he was quite nervous, not knowing how the master's wife would react after the showdown tomorrow.
With a nervous mood, Ji Chen followed Lin Qingya and Bai Lianwan to the kitchen to wash the dishes and clean up.
Just as the three of them finished their work in the kitchen, Xia Zhonggeng came in and asked them, "Are you done? If you are, do you want to go to the study to play chess?"
Now that Xie Jinglan has gone to bed, it's a good opportunity for Wanwan to play chess with Ji Chen.
When Lin Qingya heard that they were going to play chess again, she groaned inwardly. Couldn't they find another form of entertainment...
The main thing is that as an outsider, she could only understand the first few moves of Wanwan and Ji Chen's chess game. After that, she was completely confused and couldn't understand their moves at all.
When Ji Chen heard Xia Zhonggeng's invitation, he looked at Bai Lianwan beside him and asked with a smile, "Wanwan, are you going?"
Bai Lianwan really likes playing chess with him, and while there is still an opportunity and time today, he also wants to spend more time with her.
When Bai Lianwan heard Ji Chen's invitation, she said without hesitation, "Go."
During this period, when she had free time, she would study every game of chess she had played with Ji Chen and analyze his moves.
Now hearing Ji Chen's invitation, I was immediately eager to try it.
She felt that she could definitely beat Ji Chen in a few games today!
The sky cleared up and the rain stopped! The little white rabbit felt that he was fine again!
Soon, the group arrived at the study, and Ji Chen and Bai Lianwan started playing chess with great interest.
Xia Zhonggeng sat aside, watching the game between the two with a burning gaze, fascinated.
Halfway through the game, Xia Zhonggeng made an amazing discovery: his little granddaughter Wanwan's chess skills seemed to have improved by leaps and bounds.
It seems that this girl has really started to study chess.
Not only Xia Zhonggeng, but even Ji Chen himself found that fighting against Bai Lianwan today was much more difficult than before.
This girl's thinking is so fast that it's beyond the reach of ordinary people. She can actually use her talent to fight against him, a cheater. It's really terrifying!
However, he feels that this kind of game is more challenging.
Soon, the two of them were completely into the state, performing one brilliant move after another, which made Xia Zhonggeng, who was standing by, feel overwhelmed and excited.
These two kids are amazing!
Compared to the three excited people, Lin Qingya, the real spectator, was becoming more and more confused.
Before, she could understand the first few moves of each game between the two players, but now she found that Ji Chen and Wan Wan did not follow the routine at all, and she could not understand it at all!
As the two of them fought, time passed quickly.
Lin Qingya finally walked out of the study with a confused look on her face.
Today's candy is too advanced. Her brain is not enough to understand it. She needs to go to sleep to replenish her brain.
Xia Zhonggeng was watching with great interest, and Bai Lianwan became more and more courageous. After five or six games, Bai Lianwan even won two games against Ji Chen!
Ji Chen found it increasingly difficult and troublesome to deal with the girl opposite him.
If he had not participated in chess competitions and competed with chess masters without any difficulty before, he would have suspected that the chess proficiency skill rewarded by the system was inflated.
A certain system that was innocently caught in the crossfire: It’s obviously the host’s future wife’s talent that is too anti-human, what does my system have to do with it (? ˇ?ˇ ?);
