Chapter 168 So What If I Like Her?
"Who's coming?"
Xu Jiahe had sharp ears, and since there was basically no sound insulation in houses in those days, he could hear the noises outside very clearly.
Jiang Wanying signaled Xu Jiahe to drink the soup quickly. "I'll go check it out. If you don't finish it before I come back, I won't talk to you tonight."
"No! I'll definitely drink it!"
It was pig's trotter soup, specially cooked for her, to replenish wherever she was hurt. Li Wei had received so much money as a gift from Xu Jiahe, so naturally she didn't want to neglect him.
But Xu Jiahe never eats pig's feet, so he refused to drink the soup.
Xu Jiahe kept pulling Jiang Wanying to tell her about their past lives, which she found very interesting and naturally didn't want to give Jiang Wanying the chance to remain silent.
"Drink it all! No leftovers!"
Jiang Wanying nodded and gave another reminder before leaving.
Xu Jiahe nodded obediently.
Jiang Wanying walked into the main hall and saw Ye Jiao. She joked, "Oh, we have guests tonight! My uncle brought the girl here. Is it almost time for the wedding?"
After she finished speaking, she stood beside Li Wei and put her hands on her shoulders, as if to tell her that no matter what happened, she would stand behind her.
Li Wei was originally feeling a bit upset. She thought to herself, had she not offended her uncle in any way? Why would he bring Ye Jiao to the family dinner?
Or, he didn't know Ye Jiao's feelings for Jiang Huaichuan?
Xu Hongping clapped her hands in laughter when she heard her niece say this, thinking it was real. "Fourth Brother, is this real? When are you going to see it?"
"No...it's not like that!" Ye Jiao didn't wait for Jiang Xibei to speak and took the lead in explaining, "Master...he just brought me here to have a free meal...no other intentions..."
Jiang Xibei did not deny it, that was indeed what he meant.
He saw that Ye Jiao was reluctant to eat an egg, so he wanted to bring her here for a meal.
"You worry too much."
He only said these five words, then picked up his chopsticks and took a chicken leg from the braised chicken dish and handed it to Ye Jiao, "Eat it."
There were only two chicken legs in total. These chickens were caught by Pi Yanan from the mountains and were raised by Jiang Wanying. Ye Jiao looked at the chicken legs in the bowl with anxiety. She picked them up hurriedly and wanted to put them in Jiang Xibei's bowl, "No... Master, you eat it."
But Jiang Qianbei didn't give her a chance and directly picked up his bowl, "You eat."
The master and disciple were so shocked by the scene that everyone else at the table was stunned.
Jiang Dongfang coughed twice and winked at Jiang Huaichuan, "Xiaochuan, there's a chicken drumstick here. Give it to Weiwei."
Originally, the two chicken legs were meant for Li Wei and Jiang Wanying, but Li Wei was the new bride, so she had to be given the honor tonight.
As for Yingying, she wants to eat chicken legs, and there will be more of them in the future.
Hearing this, Jiang Huaichuan immediately picked up his chopsticks and handed the other chicken leg to Li Wei, "What else do you want to eat? I'll get it for you."
Li Wei was a little shy, so she didn't rush to eat. Instead, she moved towards Jiang Huaichuan and pulled Jiang Wanying to sit next to her. The three of them sat on a bench, which was a bit crowded, but it didn't affect their meal.
There was just one more set of bowls and chopsticks on the table, originally intended for Liu Xi, but he was called out at the last minute.
