Chapter 1032 The old man with ulterior motives
Qing Yuanhu threw pots and bowls in the kitchen and angrily made a large pot of seafood cold noodles. He brought it out to the yard and put it on the round table with a bang. The conversation and laughter of Ye Xiaoman, Zhu Chuideng and Sanqi paused because of the noise he made.
"Dinner is ready." Ye Xiaoman ran over excitedly.
Qing Yuanhu turned his head to look at Ye Xiaoman's face. He was feeling aggrieved at first, but he immediately calmed down.
Zhu Chuideng brought four sets of bowls and chopsticks. He was going to serve Ye Xiaoman rice, but Sanqi did it first. Sanqi had developed the ability to serve people by Ji Wenyi's side, and she served the noodles quickly and well.
Afterwards, Sanqi and Qing Yuanhu tacitly pushed Zhu Chuideng away from Ye Xiaoman, and the two of them sat on Ye Xiaoman's left and right.
Zhu Chuideng didn't think anything of it. He sat down opposite Ye Xiaoman calmly and handed her a pair of chopsticks.
The seafood noodles were sour, spicy and delicious, with a unique overseas flavor. Ye Xiaoman liked it very much and ate two bowls in one go.
Qing Yuanhu's craftsmanship was recognized, and he developed a sense of satisfaction as a househusband.
Ye Xiaoman buried her little face in the big bowl and ate voraciously. Zhu Chuideng was about to speak when Qing Yuanhu spoke first.
"Ye Xiaoman, eat slowly and be careful not to choke. No one is going to snatch it from you."
Upon hearing this, Ye Xiaoman raised her head from the bowl, with some sauce on the corner of her mouth. Zhu Chuideng, Qing Yuanhu and Sanqi looked at her and reached out to wipe her mouth at the same time.
As a result, the corner of Ye Xiaoman's mouth was so small that the three people's hands bumped into each other awkwardly.
Ye Xiaoman skillfully brought water: "Each of you wipe it."
So some people used the back of their fingers, some used handkerchiefs, and some used tissues. Ye Xiaoman's mouth corners were scraped three times, and her mouth was wiped clean.
It was the first time Qing Yuanhu had witnessed a scene where Ye Xiaoman could spark competition even for wiping her mouth. He said to her sarcastically, "Ye Xiaoman, you'll have eight husbands in your family in the future. Won't you get scratched every time you wipe your mouth?"
What Ye Xiaoman hated most at the moment was when people mentioned her upcoming marriage. She glanced at Qing Yuanhu's gloating face, looked at the shrimp head thrown in front of Qing Yuanhu, and immediately criticized him.
"Qing Yuanhu, there were only twenty prawns in the pot, and you ate seven by yourself. Do you have any shame in eating all of Zhu Chuideng's share?"
Qing Yuanhu was unhappy when he heard this and couldn't help but argue with Ye Xiaoman, "I brought the ingredients and spent the spirit stones. There are only four of us here. I... I just ate two extra pieces, so what's wrong?"
Who would want to date such a stingy woman? After marrying into her house, she would criticize you if you eat an extra bite of meat.
Ye Xiaoman brought the entire pot over, pointed at Qing Yuanhu and announced, "Anyway, you don't have a share."
Sanqi quickly pushed his bowl out and said, "I have a shrimp in my bowl. It's for you."
"Don't worry about him, Sanqi." Ye Xiaoman felt better when she saw Sanqi's pretty face. "Your face has become thinner and more pointed. Eat more."
In order to prevent Qing Yuanhu from eating all the food, Ye Xiaoman quickly divided the remaining prawns in the pot into the bowls of Sanqi and Zhu Chuideng, especially Zhu Chuideng. She was partial to him and gave him a few more prawns.
Qing Yuanhu immediately jumped up again.
"Now Zhu Chuideng has also eaten seven shrimps, why don't you say anything about him?"
Ye Xiaoman sneered, "How can you compare with Zhu Chuideng? His status is the same as yours. The extra amount he has is allocated from my share. I like him, so I let him eat it. What's wrong with that?"
Zhu Chuideng saw the younger generations quarreling over food. It was obvious that they had no shortage of food given their status and position. He felt helpless and amused.
He was used to coming out to mediate, so he gave one of the shrimps in the bowl to Qing Yuanhu, who jumped the most violently.
Qing Yuanhu didn't appreciate it and cried out as if insulted, "Who wants your charity? Take it away!"
Qing Yuanhu was so angry, especially when he saw the old man smiling slightly. He was so proud just because he was given a few more shrimps.
Ye Xiaoman bared her teeth at him and proudly took away the last crab in the pot.
After Qing Yuanhu made a little fuss, he didn't dare to complain anymore, for fear that Ye Xiaoman would kick him out.
It's so difficult to be someone's mistress these days.
He said to Ye Xiaoman bitterly, "I'm going to buy two hundred shrimps tomorrow and let you eat them all, okay?"
Ye Xiaoman gnawed on the crab and hummed, not knowing what she was saying.
Zhu Chuideng saw that Ye Xiaoman liked to eat seafood: "Okay, please buy it for me, and I will prepare a grilled shrimp feast tomorrow."
After hearing this, stingy Ruqing Yuanhu's face changed.
He actually let the cunning old man Zhu Chuideng plunder two hundred of his shrimps!
He has ulterior motives! Zhu Chuideng is definitely not as simple as he appears!
