Chapter 476 473. This brat is so lucky (Subscribe)
I have heard of doubling the bride price, but I have never heard of giving it away for free.
Lin Xinyu naturally knew what the little girl wanted to express, and touched her head lovingly.
Since her parents were around, Bai Shihan felt a little shy at the moment, fearing that their intimate actions would be seen by them.
"You can't waive the bride price. These are long-standing customs. You still have to give what you should give, not to mention that you also have a dowry. After all the calculations, it finally comes back to us. It's just a formality. It's all a matter of attitude."
The little girl listened to him quietly, because she knew very well that once Lin Xinyu made up his mind to do something, she would not be able to stop him at all. Unless she thought that he was wrong, it would be impossible for him to change his mind.
"Then, as for the dowry at that time, I will ask Dad and the others to give me more..."
When this sentence was spoken, Lin Xinyu subconsciously looked up at Bai Chen's position, and made sure that the other party did not hear it, then he felt relieved.
If Bai Chen knew about this, he would probably be charged with several new crimes.
"You are such a good wife of mine."
Lin Xinyu touched her hand. He also did not make any big movements in front of his parents. It was not because he was afraid, but it was more or less impolite to show affection in front of the elders. After all, they were still chatting.
"Brother Bai, don't worry. This guy just looks unreliable. He has absolutely no problem taking care of people."
Bai Chen didn't say much. He turned his head to look at Bai Shihan and Lin Xinyu, and found that his daughter's little hand was placed in each other's hand very naturally. That would have been fine, but he could also clearly see that the bad boy was touching the back of his daughter's hand, which really made him feel distressed.
The cabbage from your own garden has become someone else's.
Realizing that someone was looking at them, Lin Xinyu looked up and happened to meet Bai Chen's gaze, but the hand that was holding the little girl did not show any intention of letting go.
"Yeah, if he wasn't nice to Shihan, I wouldn't have let them be together."
Bai Chen had always wanted to find faults in Lin Xinyu, but he just couldn't find any. He couldn't find any faults in how he treated Bai Shihan badly, so he could only choose to turn a blind eye.
"To be honest, his mother wanted a daughter before, but she gave up the idea because she thought childbirth would be painful. Now, she treats Shihan as her own daughter. She nags me every day, asking when Shihan will come over, so..."
Lin Yangjun finished speaking, then looked at Lin Xinyu, his meaning was self-evident.
"No wonder the little girl said she wanted to come over halfway, so that's how it is." Bai Chen nodded in sudden realization, and his mood became better than before.
Her daughter was just sensible and came to see her future mother-in-law. She didn't want to go home with Lin Xinyu. This was completely self-deception, but she was unwilling to admit it.
"You guys chat first, I'll go cook."
Li Zixuan stood up, said hello, and turned to the kitchen.
"I'll go help too."
Qiu Jingyun had nothing to do, and when she saw Li Zixuan leaving, she thought about going over to help. She hadn't been to the kitchen for such a long time and she really missed it.
Originally, Lin Yangjun and Li Zixuan were ready to refuse, but after the other party confirmed it again and again, they finally gave up.
"Xiao Yu, go down and buy two bottles of wine. Brother Bai and I will have a few drinks today. We don't have to drive tonight anyway."
"Don't bother. I bought some wine."
Bai Chen pointed at the gift he had just brought up, indicating that there was no need to go through so much trouble.
"Look, Brother Bai, just come if you want to. Why are you being so polite?"
The necessary polite words were still exchanged, but since it was not yet time for dinner, I did not go to see what to buy.
Only Lin Xinyu knew that Feitian Moutai was not cheap. It was estimated that his father didn’t know its price at the moment.
This is good, my parents won’t feel pressured.
If they knew what Bai Shihan's parents did, after so many years of getting along with each other, Lin Xinyu could guess their first reaction without even thinking - their own son is not worthy of other people's daughters.
The idea is so simple and realistic.
The simple little girl didn't think too much. She looked towards the kitchen and then turned to look at Lin Xinyu.
"You want to help, too?"
"Um."
"It's good to help. After all, your two mothers are cooking in there."
Hearing this, the little girl's pretty face turned red. She knew very well what the other party meant, but she was a little afraid to go over alone. She could only look at Lin Xinyu with a pleading look, trying to get help.
"Don't worry, you cook very well. It's not like you haven't cooked before when I was at your house in high school."
Lin Xinyu naturally knew what the little girl was worried about. He stood up, then took her hand, left the living room and walked into the kitchen under the gaze of Lin Yangjun and Bai Chen.
"Mom, can Shihan and I also cook a dish later?"
"You? You can cook?"
Li Zixuan looked at her son in disbelief. Even if others didn't know how Lin Xinyu grew up, how could she, as a mother, not know?
Cooking? What kind of dishes can he cook?
However, after looking at Bai Shihan, he immediately realized that it was most likely the little girl who did it. He didn't expect that she could actually cook, which was another plus.
"Mom, I lived alone in high school. Do you think I learned how to cook?"
"Then let you and Shihan cook later?"
"Don't worry, it will definitely be delicious."
After that, the two of them helped in the kitchen. Since there were four people, it was sometimes not very convenient to move around, so Li Zixuan and Qiu Jingyun left and left the cooking to them.
"What's wrong?"
After seeing the two people coming out of the kitchen, Lin Yangjun was a little confused and looked at Li Zixuan who had just sat down next to him.
"Xiao Yu said they wanted to cook a meal, so we handed the kitchen over to them."
"He can cook?"
"It should be Shi Han's company. He will be responsible for assisting."
Bai Chen was stunned. When he heard them talking about Shihan's ability to cook, he just knew about it. He suddenly felt that he was indeed unqualified as a father.
If he had known this in advance, he could have cooked with his daughter, just like Lin Xinyu now. As long as his daughter wants to try something, he will accompany her. This way, they can also strengthen their relationship.
It was also at this moment that he understood why his daughter liked the other person so much.
It's not simply because he's good to her, but because he will unconditionally accompany her to do whatever she likes. Over time, it's hard not to develop feelings and dependence on her.
"This should be the first time we eat food cooked by Shihan." Bai Chen sighed.
"Yes, if I had spent more time with them before, everything might be different now." Qiu Jingyun also agreed.
If they could spare more time to spend with their son and daughter, how could things be like this now? On the surface, nothing has happened, but in fact there is a little rift between them.
If it weren't for Lin Xinyu, Bai Chen would probably still be busy with work, and the little girl probably wouldn't be as optimistic and cheerful as she is now. Although he was unhappy about the behavior of his cabbage being eaten by a pig, he had to say that the one he should be most grateful to was the pig that was eating the cabbage.
"It's the same for us. This is also the first time we eat Xiaoyu's cooking."
Li Zixuan didn't know what they were thinking, she just followed their words and expressed the same meaning.
"I don't even know when this kid learned to cook."
"He said he learned to cook in high school, when he lived alone."
Hearing this, Bai Chen immediately understood.
Based on the summary of this period, he knew very well how Lin Xinyu and Shihan met. In addition, Song Jiali also briefly talked about what happened in high school. Combined with various events, it showed that the brat had probably cooked with the little girl since high school.
Thinking of this, Bai Chen felt jealous again.
In the kitchen, Lin Xinyu didn't have much time to think about what was happening outside. He was now standing behind Bai Shihan.
In order to highlight the joint efforts, he used this as an excuse to touch the back of her hand from behind and help her cut the vegetables.
"You can't do this..."
Normally, cutting vegetables can be done very quickly when one person is doing it, but when two people work together, the speed drops significantly.
If she continued like this, she didn't know when she would be able to cook a complete meal. She couldn't imagine what would happen if her mother and others came to check on her.
"Don't move. I just want to cook with you right now. If you move, I might start thinking about other things."
Hearing this, the little girl in his arms calmed down.
She knew exactly what he meant, and continued cutting vegetables with a blushing face.
The two of them just did this leisurely. The boy touched the back of the girl's hand and continued to cut vegetables. Although they didn't do anything else, this ambiguous action could still easily make people think of something impure.
Fortunately, most of the vegetables in the kitchen had already been sorted and cut by Li Zixuan and the others, so they didn't have to spend too much time, which made the little girl breathe a sigh of relief.
"It's been a while since we cooked together. The last time we cooked together was in high school. You didn't believe I could cook then. If it weren't for the flying chopping board in my house, you wouldn't have dared to come to my house."
When she said this, the little girl blushed a little.
Whether or not he dared to go was not the point. Even though he was a little curious at the time, it was mostly because he was Lin Xinyu.
If she didn't like him or have a good impression of him, she wouldn't be very interested in the flying chopping board or even if he had a talking cat at home.
In the final analysis, liking this kind of thing gives people a very strange feeling. No matter what the other person says, sometimes she knows that he is fooling her and saying some unrealistic things, but she is willing to choose to believe it.
"But you lied..."
"Then why did you follow me up there when you knew I was lying?"
“I, I…”
The little girl stammered and couldn't explain it for a while.
"It's hard to hear you say you like it."
“Hmm…”
Lin Xinyu knew very well that the little girl was just shy. Even though they both knew something clearly, the other party just couldn't express it and kept it secret. She would only express her love through actual actions, and usually seldom said anything.
He was just the opposite. He not only said sweet words to her, but also let her know through his actions that he always kept his word. He was not like some people who said nice things but rarely did anything.
After preparing all the ingredients, Lin Xinyu left Bai Shihan.
The two of them took turns cooking a dish each.
They didn't think it was troublesome. At first, Lin Xinyu wanted to say that he would cook this time and she would cook next time. But how could Bai Shihan, who was smart, not guess what the other party was thinking? Next time? Who knows when the next time will be, so it turned into one dish for each person now.
"If mom and the others don't like what I do..."
"Don't worry, there's no way I won't like it. It's not like I haven't tried it before. Be confident. It's delicious."
There is no doubt that Li Zixuan and the others would say that the food is delicious. Even if the dishes cooked by the little girl are not delicious, they will not say it and will only praise her. Not to mention that Bai Shihan’s cooking is indeed delicious, so she will definitely get their heartfelt praise.
"You can't lie to me..."
The little girl was unsure, so she was always worried. This was her first time to show herself in front of her parents, and she was afraid of leaving a bad impression.
Lin Xinyu patted her shoulder and said, "Relax, no matter whether the meal you cook today is delicious or not, you have already taken this step, which is a success."
Listening to the other party's encouraging words, Bai Shihan also cheered herself up in her heart. After all, this was her first brave step. Cooking a meal for her parents was something she had always dreamed of since she learned how to cook.
It was just that Bai Chen and the others didn’t have time, so it was never realized.
But today, not only his parents, but also Lin Xinyu's parents, were naturally a little nervous, fearing that everything would be messed up.
"I would never lie to you. I think it's delicious. I'm sure they will think so too."
Besides, in order to highlight that the dishes cooked by the little girl are very delicious, Lin Xinyu also deliberately put more salt in his father’s favorite scrambled eggs with leeks, so that it can attract firepower. Then again, it was he who cooked it, and the other dishes were made by Bai Shihan, which made a perfect comparison.
"You guys really know how to cook?"
Li Zixuan walked into the kitchen. She was a little worried at first, but after seeing several dishes that had already been prepared, she immediately changed her mind.
Not to mention the taste, at least the appearance is good.
"Yeah, I also think Shihan is very amazing."
Looking at her son's proud expression and comparing it to Bai Shihan who was cooking seriously at this moment, even if he was her own son, she couldn't help but complain in her heart.
I really don't know where this brat got the good fortune to find such a good girlfriend...
