It was getting late, and Xiaoxi and the others needed to eat something, but they were having a late-night snack, unlike the regular meals they ate at the ancestral home.
Just then, Xiaoxi's mirror reflected an image of the handsome young ancestor, who was furious, completely ruining his good looks.
"Ye Shiming, as the head of the family, you can't even organize a proper banquet. What is this? It's simply unbearable to look at, let alone eat!"
Try this chicken; it's so tough it's practically rotten. And what about this wine? It's bland and tasteless.
Don't tell me that with a family as large as the Ye family, you've never tasted what real gourmet food is like.
Ye Shiming felt extremely wronged.
This ancestor has been underground for so long, doesn't he know that the ancestral home is a place for holding grand banquets?
I came to place my father's memorial tablet a few days ago. The original plan was to return that day and just have a vegetarian meal.
It's not the time for ancestral worship now, and besides, it's late at night, and the ancestral home is in the suburbs. It's already quite an achievement that they can put together a banquet in such a short time.
This old ancestor is truly seriously ill.
Seeing that the old ancestor was unhappy, Ye Bingkun also glared at Ye Shiming.
"Hurry up and go down there to think of a solution! You should at least come up with one or two dishes that will satisfy the Ancestor!"
Ye Bingkun frowned and slunk away to the kitchen.
Xiao Xi and the others, who were in the castle in the air, burst into laughter.
Xiao Xi laughed the loudest because in Ye Dexian's study, she witnessed Ye Shiming's eagerness to become the head of the family.
"Is Ye Shiming regretting it now?"
He certainly never dreamed that an ancestor would suddenly appear.
So the position of family head isn't so easy to hold!
Ye Xingxian found it amusing to see Xiao Xi's gloating expression.
"I remember I once gave Xiaoxi a royal recipe book. The chef who wrote this recipe book was an imperial chef."
"How about Xiaoxi goes down and helps cook a few dishes to temporarily relieve poor Ye Shiming's burden?"
"Fifth Brother, I only cook for people I like. This old ancestor is just dreaming. I would never cook for him."
Ye Xingxian laughed, "Xiao Xi has misunderstood. I didn't mean for you to sincerely cook for this annoying old man."
It was something you made that caused a chemical reaction in him.
I think this old ancestor has probably been underground for too long, and now that he has gained a youthful appearance, he's become a bit too complacent.
You're amplifying his current emotions and accelerating the side effects of the therapy chamber, making them manifest sooner!
"Oh my, that's why it has to be our Fifth Brother, who can come up with such a brilliant idea!" He's really cunning.
Xiao Xi put down her chopsticks, took out the imperial recipe book from her brocade pouch, looked at it, understood it perfectly, and then went down to the ancestral home in a flash.
Ye Shiming was in a terrible predicament in the kitchen.
The fat chef in the ancestral home was so anxious that he cried; he couldn't think of any way to save the situation.
Just then, an unassuming maid came running breathlessly into the kitchen, clearly there to urge the kitchen to prepare the food.
Xiaoxi's eyes darted around. She noticed that the maid looked ordinary, the kind you wouldn't notice in a crowd.
So she imitated the image of a maid and transformed herself into an ordinary maid.
"Sister, are you rushing us to hurry up with the food? Go tell the master in front that the kitchen is already preparing it, and we'll bring it over in a bit!"
The maid believed her, and Xiaoxi then walked towards the kitchen again.
