The old man spoiled Ji Zhinan. The first position on the right belonged to Ji Pengfei, and the first position on the left belonged to Ji Zhinan. This made Mrs. Ji, Ji Pengfei's wife, very embarrassed, and she could only sit in the second position on the right.
Ji Zhixia didn't want to sit with Ji Zhinan, so she simply sat next to Mrs. Ji.
The old man sat in the main seat, Ji Zhinan sat on the left, and Ji Pengfei and his family of three sat on the right.
The soup in the pot was already boiling, and the old man picked up a few shrimp balls and put them into the pot.
"Grandpa remembers that you love shrimp balls the most and you always eat several, so Grandpa specially asked Auntie to buy more."
Ji Zhinan felt warm in his heart: "Thank you, Grandpa."
"Be good." The old man smiled dotingly.
Mrs. Ji, not to be outdone, threw three boxes of beef into the pot, shouting as she did so: "Xia Xia, this is imported beef, it's delicious! Mom will give you more, you will gain weight if you eat more. Look how thin you are, Mom is so sad!"
Ji Zhixia finally felt balanced, and with a rather proud look on her face, she deliberately raised her voice, "Thank you, Mom!"
There were only three boxes of beef left at home, and Mrs. Ji threw them all into the spicy pot, leaving nothing for Ji Zhinan.
In this family, apart from Grandpa Ji, only Ji Zhinan doesn't eat spicy food.
Mrs. Ji did it on purpose.
Old Master Ji frowned, somewhat unhappy: "Nannan doesn't eat spicy food."
"Oh no!" Madam Ji pretended to have just remembered, slapped her head, and said in frustration: "Look at my memory. Nannan moved out so long ago that I forgot she doesn't eat spicy food. But I threw the beef into the spicy pot..."
She looked at Ji Zhinan with a smile: "There are no more at home. Mom will definitely remember it next time."
Ji Zhinan just smiled and said nothing.
After getting back at the advantage, Mrs. Ji was so proud that everything she ate tasted delicious.
The old man boiled some food and placed it in Ji Zhinan's bowl. He asked lovingly, "How was your first day at the company? Are you adapting well?"
"It's pretty good." Ji Zhinan looked up and smiled: "Although I'm just helping others organize files and copy and print documents, it's not bad."
As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere at the dinner table turned cold.
Ji Pengfei glared at Ji Zhinan in reproach. No wonder he hated this girl. She spoke too quickly!
Ji Pengfei had wanted to hide the fact that he asked her to do odd jobs from the old man, but he didn't expect that the secret would be exposed on the first day.
The old man had a cold face and no appetite. He slammed his chopsticks on the table and shouted at Ji Pengfei in a low voice.
"Ji Pengfei, explain it to me!"
"Dad..." Ji Pengfei gritted his teeth, his mind racing: "Nannan is too young and needs to accumulate experience. She-"
Mrs. Ji beside her hurriedly explained to her husband, "Dad, you know Pengfei loves his children, but the two children are grown up, and we can't spoil them all the time. Nannan went to the company to learn. What can she learn by letting her sit in the office every day? Pengfei is also doing this for the good of the children."
This reason made sense. Ji Pengfei nodded and immediately agreed with Mrs. Ji: "Although organizing documents is a chore, it can also help to train patience. Dad, you also know that young people are impulsive and not calm at all..."
After hearing the explanation, Grandpa Ji's gloomy expression eased a little. He looked at his little granddaughter with heartache and said lovingly, "Nannan, if you feel wronged, I'll ask your father to give you an office job! You are the old man's granddaughter, the second young lady of the Ji family. You are destined to enjoy a life of luxury. You don't need any work experience!"
