Chapter 242: I, an old man, would come along and have a free meal. Do you mind?

Yu Daniu and Yu Erhu were originally nervous and restrained. They felt that it was like a dream for them, peasants, to one day be able to talk to the most learned scholars in the world.

Fortunately, Old Lady Liu was very easy-going, without any airs. Under Old Lady Liu's guidance, Yu Daniu and Yu Erhu quickly relaxed and talked freely.

By the time Li Chunhua finished cooking and started to serve the dishes with Mrs. Wei, Yu Daniu and Yu Erhu were already chatting with Old Lady Liu with great enthusiasm, and they felt that Mr. Liu was truly their confidant.

When the food was served, Mrs. Wei remembered something else.

I heard that wealthy families have some rules, men and women eat at different tables, etc...

She couldn't help but feel a little awkward and said, "Master, we all eat at the same table at home, you see..."

Old Lady Liu naturally doesn't care about these things.

He is upright in his conduct, but not rigid in his character.

Old Lady Liu smiled and said, "Awu and Siyang are already engaged, so we are naturally a family. As a family, why should we be so particular?"

Mrs. Wei was both excited and moved.

The bachelor's degree holder is really reasonable!

The Yu family sat at a large table.

Xing Xing went to Da Xi Si Po to study medicine and did not come back for lunch. There was only one child at the table, Ju Ge'er, who looked at Old Lady Liu curiously.

Su Rouer nervously pulled Ju Ge'er's arm.

Old Lady Liu just laughed, not caring at all, and even took out a little silver deer from her body.

It is very exquisitely made.

"Here, this is a gift for you." Old Mrs. Liu handed it to Ju Ge'er with a smile.

But Ju Ge'er refused to accept it and put his hands behind his back: "Grandpa, we don't even know each other, why did you give me such an expensive gift?"

Su Rouer was so frightened that she quickly pulled her son away.

Old Lady Liu laughed even more happily.

The Yu family is really interesting. Even a four or five-year-old kid has a lot of fun with them.

"It doesn't matter. We don't know each other now, but we will be familiar with each other in the future." Facing a child of four or five years old, Old Master Liu did not show any airs at all - it was hard to imagine that a year ago, he was still pointing at the emperor's nose and cursing in the Golden Throne Hall with saliva flying.

Ju Ge'er asked honestly, "Why?"

"My granddaughter is going to marry your fourth uncle. Tell me, will there be many opportunities for us to get to know each other in the future?" Old Lady Liu asked with a smile.

Ju Ge'er thought about it and felt that it was right. He took the silver deer from Old Lady Liu and said in a crisp voice, "Thank you, old man."

Before Su Rou'er could breathe a sigh of relief, she heard Ju Ge'er ask Old Lady Liu, "Grandpa, is Xingxing available?"

She nearly fainted.

You refused to accept it just now, but now you not only accept it, but you even dare to ask for it from Master Liu on behalf of Xingxing?!

My son, you have achieved great success!

Fortunately, Old Lady Liu was not angry at all. She laughed and said, "Of course there is. I was thinking of giving it to Xingxing when she comes back. Since you asked, you can pass it on to her for me."

As she spoke, Old Lady Liu took out a little silver deer and handed it to Brother Ju, apparently she had prepared it in advance.

Ju Geer took it happily and said, "Grandpa, I also thank you on behalf of Xingxing."

Mrs. Wei was simply at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

This is a meeting gift. Old Mrs. Liu has known Xingxing for a long time and has given her a box full of jewelry. Why would she need to give her another meeting gift?

"Brother Ju is young, please don't be surprised." Mrs. Wei was really annoyed by her grandson's familiar demeanor.

Old Lady Liu waved her hand and said, "Ju Ge'er is smart and cute. I like him very much."

Su Rouer was so excited that she almost cried.

The smartest scholar in the world praises her son for being smart and cute!

"Okay, let's eat first. The food is so delicious." Seeing that the Yu family members didn't dare to pick up their chopsticks, Old Lady Liu could only take the lead and greet them.

Only then did the Yu family members all start to pick up their chopsticks.

Old Lady Liu took a bite and was somewhat shocked.

He picked up another piece of food with his chopsticks, chewed it carefully, and a thoughtful look appeared on his face.

This dish was almost entirely made by Li Chunhua, with the help of Mrs. Wei.

Li Chunhua was very nervous, fearing that her cooking skills would not impress Mr. Liu.

She came from the imperial city, so she must have eaten the best food in the world. I don't know if her cooking skills are good enough.

Although Li Chunhua had food in her hands, she was secretly glancing at Master Liu from the corner of her eyes.

Seeing that Master Liu took a piece of food from each plate with his chopsticks and then fell into deep thought, Li Chunhua became extremely nervous and her palms were sweating!

Mrs. Wei asked with some concern: "Grand Master, is this dish not to your liking?"

Old Lady Liu put down her chopsticks and discussed with Mrs. Wei: "...My dear, you see, after Ah Wu and Si Yang get married, we will be a family. When the time comes, an old man like me will also come and eat with you. Do you mind, dear?"

Mrs. Wei smiled widely: "I don't mind, I don't mind."

She nudged Li Chunhua beside her and said, "These dishes were made by my eldest daughter-in-law. She is a very good cook. I never thought she would be favored by the university scholar."

Li Chunhua felt like she was in the clouds, floating around, and didn't know what to say.

Old Lady Liu praised, "I am not as lucky as you. My eldest daughter-in-law is lucky enough not to make me die of anger, but your eldest daughter-in-law is so skillful."

These words praised both Mrs. Wei and Li Chunhua, and the smiles on their faces were brighter than any flowers.

To be fair, Li Chunhua's cooking skills are certainly not as good as those of the exquisite chefs in the capital or the palace.

But her craftsmanship lies in its natural simplicity, which highlights the aroma of the ingredients themselves, and is a style completely different from those exquisite delicacies.

Old Mrs. Liu was extremely happy!

He originally had a hidden worry that Ah Wu might not be used to the food here.

If he were to bring a cook as a dowry, would it make the Yu family feel uncomfortable?

But now, Old Lady Liu feels that not only does she no longer need a dowry cook, but she even wants to come over and eat for free!

The meal ended in a very relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.

A Wu and Yu Siyang's marriage has officially taken a new step.

Mrs. Wei prepared many betrothal gifts, hired a wedding procession, and sent them to the Liu family's villa with music and dance.

The Yu family knew that they were only slightly better off than ordinary farmers, so the betrothal gifts were naturally not comparable to those in the capital. However, the Yu family put all their efforts into preparing these betrothal gifts, just to have a clear conscience.

Old Lady Liu naturally knew the situation of the Yu family and was not very concerned about how much betrothal gift the Yu family could offer.

It was also because of this that when he saw boxes of betrothal gifts that far exceeded his expectations being delivered to the courtyard, he was still surprised by the sincerity of the Yu family.

Old Lady Liu felt more and more that the marriage she had found for Ah Wu was the best.

As for whether it is marriage or inheritance, as long as the children live well, it is just a title, what does it matter?
