Qin Xueqiong was a little nervous when she thought about Yue Yuan's family coming over, so after hearing the news, she hurried over to inform her daughter and asked them to start preparing.
"Xiao Rou, where do you think we should eat?"
"Mom, why don't we eat at home? We'll cook a nice meal then." There are only state-owned restaurants here, but no other good restaurants. Even if there are any, there are only one or two secretly opened private restaurants. It's not appropriate to take Yue Yuan's parents there to eat, so it's better to eat at home.
Qin Xueqiong nodded and said, "Okay, let's eat at home."
"Yes, Mom, when will Uncle Yue's parents come? Have you confirmed the time?"
"Sure! They'll be here tomorrow, and dinner will be the night after tomorrow." Qin Xueqiong said, and then she quickly pulled her daughter aside and asked, "Xiao Rou, what dishes do you think we should prepare?"
Although Tang Xiaorou was not very good at cooking, she had rich theoretical knowledge, so she quickly discussed it with Qin Xueqiong. It didn't matter even if it was a dish that Qin Xueqiong didn't know. Tang Xiaorou could write down the recipe and try to cook it tomorrow. If it didn't work, she could just cook a dish she was good at.
With the menu written by her daughter, Qin Xueqiong instantly felt less nervous.
"Xiao Rou, I'll go back and make some new dishes." The family happened to buy a fish today, so we can try the squirrel fish that my daughter just mentioned.
After Qin Xueqiong left, Tang Xiaorou began to think about what gift to give to the two elderly people.
After Shen Huaixu knew about it, he couldn't help but smile and said, "What you gave to my grandparents was very good, so you can also give those to Mr. Yue and Mrs. Yue."
"That's right. I'm best at refining medicine, so I'll give those to you."
After deciding what to send, Tang Xiaorou looked at Shen Huaixu and asked, "Are Grandpa Yue and Grandma Yue kind and easy to deal with? I wonder if they will have any objections to my mother."
What she didn't say was that if the Yue family really had a problem with her mother, then her mother might have to reconsider her relationship with Yue Yuan. After all, her mother had suffered for half her life, and she didn't want to see her mother suffer any more injustices in the second half of her life.
"Mr. Yue and Mrs. Yue are both very kind people, so you don't have to worry."
Shen Huaixu knew what his wife was worried about, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mom is so good, no one will embarrass her."
"Of course my mother is very kind, but I am afraid that other people cannot see her goodness."
"Don't worry, it won't happen."
Seeing Shen Huaixu say this, Tang Xiaorou knew that the two elders of the Yue family should be good people. Besides, there was no point in thinking too much now. It would not be too late to talk about it when they met the day after tomorrow.
The next day, after get off work, Tang Xiaorou took her two children to Qin Xueqiong's place to see if there was anything she could do to help.
"Xiao Rou, it's good that you're here. I'll make the dishes you mentioned yesterday. Try them later to see if they taste the same."
Looking at the prawns, braised duck, and crab roe tofu soup on the table, Tang Xiaorou couldn't help but smile and said, "It seems that we came at the right time. There are so many delicious foods."
"Hurry up and sit down to eat."
However, Qin Xueqiong saw that Shen Huaixu didn’t come over, so she asked again: “Will Huaixu come over for dinner tonight?”
"He won't be here until very late at night."
"Okay, let's eat first."
I have to say that Qin Xueqiong’s cooking skills are really good. These dishes are all very delicious, and there is also almond tofu and osmanthus cake after the meal.
"Mom, your cooking is so delicious."
Qin Xueqiong smiled and said, "My aunt taught me how to make these two desserts, otherwise I wouldn't be able to make them." Although osmanthus cake is not difficult to make, it is not easy to make an osmanthus cake that is sweet but not greasy and melts in the mouth. The things that Old Lady Yao taught her can make such delicious osmanthus cake.
"My aunt also taught me how to make almond tofu."
Upon hearing this, Old Lady Yao said, "That's because you have good skills. If I teach Xiaorou, she definitely won't be able to do it."
Tang Xiaorou laughed when she heard this.
"Grandma Yao, you're right. I really can't do it."
"Hahaha……"
Everyone laughed when they heard this.
When the Yue family was coming, Qin Xueqiong started to get busy early in the morning. Old Mrs. Yao and Yao Bingcheng all helped. Xiaoliang and Xiaoyan also helped to pick vegetables.
Tang Xiaorou came over directly after Shen Huaixu finished his work, but when they arrived, Qin Xueqiong had already prepared the food.
"Wow... this big table looks delicious."
Qin Xueqiong also felt that it was about the same. She checked the time and hurried to cut fruit and make tea.
"Mom, let me help."
Tang Xiaorou followed them to the kitchen with a smile and helped cut the fruit. When they came out, there was a knock on the door.
"I'll open the door."
Qin Xueqiong was a little nervous, but she went over to open the door calmly.
"Xue Qiong."
When Yue Yuan saw Qin Xueqiong, he smiled and called out, and when he was about to introduce her, he saw Qin Xueqiong looking at Old Lady Yue with surprise and said, "Old lady, why are you here?" But she quickly realized that the old lady was Yue Yuan's mother.
Old Lady Yue excitedly grabbed Qin Xueqiong's hand and said, "Xueqiong, I can finally see you in the open air."
"you……"
Qin Xueqiong was obviously stunned when she saw Old Lady Yue's reaction, but she could feel that Old Lady Yue was really happy, so she hurriedly said, "Everyone, please come in, let's go sit inside."
"Oh...Okay."
Old Madam Yue took Qin Xueqiong and walked into the house. "Xueqiong, I went to look for you later, but you left the capital and you didn't even know. I wanted to come and find you directly at that time."
Hearing this, Qin Xueqiong was surprised, "So you came to see me again."
"Yes, we had a lot of fun chatting that time. We are destined to be together. Look, we will be mother-in-law and daughter-in-law soon."
Hearing this, Qin Xueqiong's face immediately turned red. She had thought of many kinds of meeting situations, but she had never thought of this one.
Yue Yuan, who was following behind, was completely forgotten. At the same time, he was also curious about when his mother went to see Xue Qiong.
Tang Xiaorou did not expect that Mrs. Yue and her mother had already met each other. Seeing how happy and excited the old lady was, it seemed that there would be no problem with tonight's dinner. However, in addition to Mr. Yue and Mrs. Yue, there was also a pair of middle-aged women with calm temperaments. After introducing the two elders, Yue Yuan also introduced them to his eldest brother Yue Chi and his eldest sister-in-law Qiao Yun.
"Hello."
Yue Chi and Qiao Yun greeted Qin Xueqiong and the others with a smile, then turned to look at Tang Xiaorou and said, "This must be my niece, she's really pretty."
