Chapter 61 Are they your biological children?
When Lu's mother saw Su Jing, she smiled and said, "Have you been busy with work these past few days? I haven't seen you come out to play on Sunday."
Life for retirees is pretty much like that, especially in winter, when everyone gets together to play cards or mahjong.
Su Jing hasn't retired yet, but she likes to play a few games with everyone during her time off.
Su Jing sighed, "There are so many things to do at home, how can I find the time?"
Actually, I'm just embarrassed.
Fang Shuying caused a scene at the hospital last time, which angered Lu's mother so much that she went to the Fang family to ask Fang Bo'an and Su Jing to keep their daughter in check.
Fang Bo'an and Su Jing's lifelong cultivation and dignity were completely lost because of this daughter.
Fang Shuying's love life hit a snag, and she cries her heart out at home every day.
At first, the couple felt sorry for her, thinking that their daughter had suffered heartbreak and they couldn't be too strict with her; they needed to let her heal properly.
As a result, she went to the Lu family to cause trouble time and time again, especially when Lu Xiangyang was hospitalized, she went to their house and said some nonsense.
Those words angered not only Lu's mother, but also outsiders like them.
The couple felt that their daughter was spoiled, so they locked her at home and gave her a good scolding before quickly buying her a plane ticket so she could finish her studies abroad.
Because of this incident, the Fang couple have been feeling a bit embarrassed to face the Lu family lately.
If it weren't for the matter of delivering a letter, Su Jing would have been too embarrassed to even step foot in the door today.
"What are you making at your house? It smells so sweet and delicious, like milk and tea."
Lu's mother laughed heartily and pulled her into the house: "Jiani said she's making milk tea for us."
"You've never had this before, have you?"
"Let's try it later."
Seeing that Lu Ma's attitude hadn't changed, Su Jing breathed a sigh of relief and smiled even more warmly: "Looks like I'm in for a treat today."
Making milk tea is very simple, but it takes a little more time because there are many people making a large batch.
After finishing, Jiang Jianni went out to find the teacup.
Seeing Su Jing, she was taken aback at first, then smiled and said, "Aunt Su, you're here. I just made some milk tea, why don't you try it and see how it tastes?"
Her attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, but Su Jing still felt uneasy.
This girl is being a little too polite.
But when I think about what my own daughter has done, I feel that other people's attitude is normal.
You've already slapped someone across the face, you can't expect them to stick out their other cheek so you can hit them back, can you?
Then she started complaining about Fang Shuying.
If she really liked Lu Xiangyang, she could have said it much earlier.
Given the relationship between the two families, if she were to speak out, both families would definitely do their best to bring them together.
She had kept quiet all along, but then she suddenly interfered after the other person got married.
Now look what's happened; they were already in the wrong, and now they're in the wrong.
This has made Su Jing feel uncomfortable whenever she sees Jiang Jiani.
But she couldn't bring herself to apologize on behalf of her own daughter.
Before Su Jing could figure out what to say, Jiang Jianni had already taken a teacup into the kitchen.
She couldn't help but sigh.
Lu's mother comforted her, "It's a young person's business, it has nothing to do with you, don't worry about it."
Su Jing smiled wryly: "I really didn't know when Shuying became like this."
Lu's mother has no daughter and doesn't know how to continue comforting her.
Besides, that girl even cursed her own son, so she couldn't bring herself to comfort Su Jing without complaint. Instead, she went to the kitchen to help Jiang Jiani.
Once inside the kitchen, the sweet aroma with hints of tea became even stronger: "Jiani, what did you add? Why does it smell so sweet?"
Jiang Jianni carefully poured milk tea into the tea mug: "Just tea leaves, milk, rock sugar, and honey."
She scooped a spoonful into a bowl and gave it to Lu's mother: "Mom, try it and see if it's sweet."
Jiang Jianni is quite confident in making milk tea.
She lived alone in her previous life and made a lot of desserts and milk tea herself.
Especially in winter, making a big cup of milk tea, snuggling up on the sofa eating homemade cookies and watching TV is so cozy, isn't it!
Without standing on ceremony with Jiang Jiani, Lu's mother picked up the glass and took a sip, commenting, "Not bad, not bad."
"It's not too sweet or too bland, it has a strong milky flavor, along with the subtle sweetness of honey and the aroma of tea."
She looked at Jiang Jianni with surprise: "Your proportions are great. Do you often make this at home?"
Jiang Jianni chuckled: "I've done it a few times. It's not difficult, so it's easy to do."
She personally prefers things that are a little sweeter.
However, in my past life, I always brewed milk tea that was relatively weak in order to reduce my sugar intake.
This time, considering that Lu's parents are getting older and don't dare to eat foods with too much sugar, the amount of sugar they consume can be controlled.
Aunt Lu shook her head: "This is not something you can call easy."
To be honest, Jiang Jianni's skills are something that ordinary families can't cultivate.
After all, milk tea, whether it's milk, tea leaves, sugar, or honey, is made from high-quality ingredients and isn't cheap.
Ordinary families wouldn't be willing to go through such trouble.
Jiang Jianni laughed again, hugging her arm and acting coquettishly: "Oh, Mom~ Mom~, please give me some constructive feedback so I can improve next time."
Lu's mother shook her head: "I really think it's great. Why don't you ask your dad Xiangyang and your Aunt Su Jing later?"
She loved fashion when she was young.
I used to drink milk a lot when I was little, but when I was sixteen or seventeen, I started drinking coffee like other people.
After marrying Lu's father, you should pay attention to your lifestyle. If you run out of coffee, prioritize the baby's milk, and at most, you can have some tea.
I haven't touched milk in years.
Seeing that she genuinely liked it, Jiang Jianni didn't press the matter further, but said with a hint of regret, "It's a pity there are no pearls; milk tea and pearls are a perfect match."
Aunt Lu laughed: "You still want to eat pearls? We can't afford pearls."
Jiang Jianni quickly explained, "They are pearls made of tapioca flour, not the kind of pearls used for jewelry."
By the way, it seems that pearls can also be made with lotus root starch, sweet potato starch, and potato starch. I'll see what's good to buy later and buy some to make some pearls.
Lu's mother was immediately intrigued and wanted to know what tapioca pearls made of tapioca flour looked like.
Lu's father was a rough and unrefined man, and Lu Xiangyang was no less so. Both father and son thought it was sweet, tea, and milky, and while it tasted good, it was a bit strange and cloying.
Only Su Jing's eyes lit up as she drank: "This milk tea is great! Jia Ni, can you teach me how to make it?"
She likes sweet things, but the pastries, cakes, and cookies sold outside are always too sweet and make her feel nauseous.
This milk tea is good; it's a little sweet, but not too sweet.
It's just right for her.
Jiang Jianni was pleased by her support: "Great, this is a very simple dish..."
She had only explained half of what she was going to do when someone came in from outside.
As soon as I came in, I sniffed hard: "What's that smell? It smells so good!"
"Well, you guys were secretly eating good food at home and didn't even call me!"
"Am I still your biological child?"
