Chapter 22 Didn't you go home last night?



After finishing this little game, Aunt Liu had already prepared the meal.

The bright red and fragrant braised prawns made the children drool at the sight.

The perfectly crispy braised pork with handmade ingredients is so tempting.

Gu Jingming asked his grandmother to come out of the room. The old lady looked a little listless and coughed twice, as if she had caught a cold.

Aunt Liu specially prepared pear porridge for her, apparently she already knew about her situation in the morning.

Aunt Liu not only has many cooking skills, but also knows some dietary therapy methods.

Gu Jingming's family was able to hire such a good aunt, no wonder he didn't feel worried when he was away from home for a long time.

Ye Qingtao lost her appetite immediately when she saw her sick grandmother.

But when she tasted the braised prawns, her appetite instantly returned.

The dishes cooked by Aunt Liu can not only reflect the original flavor of the food, but also easily arouse people's appetite.

This level of cooking cannot be achieved without decades of practice.

Gu Jingming kept picking up food for her, and seeing that she liked to eat shrimps, he put down his chopsticks and took the initiative to peel shrimps for her.

Gu Jingming rolled up his sleeves slightly, and he peeled the shrimps gracefully but at an absurdly fast speed.

Ye Qingtao eats slowly and chews the shrimps carefully.

Every time she hadn't finished eating, Gu Jingming had already peeled the next one with quick movements.

After a while, there was a small pile of shrimp shells in front of Gu Jingming.

A group of little kids looked at him eagerly, and Gu Xiuyuan was the first one to get unhappy.

"Big brother, why do you only peel shrimp for me? Xiuyuan wants some too."

Gu Jingming had no choice but to put the freshly peeled shrimps into Gu Xiuyuan's bowl.

At this time, Gu Xiuping and Gu Xiu'an brought the bowls over at the same time.

Gu Jingming was stunned for a moment, then peeled a shrimp for each of them and put it in a bowl.

The children finished their shrimps contentedly and then held out their bowls again.

"Go away, go away. You are such a grown-up and want to eat shrimp, can't you peel it yourself?"

Gu Jingming was too busy and started to chase people away, and Gu Xiuyuan said righteously.

"Sister is obviously bigger than us, why do you only help her peel it and not us?"

"It's not fair for you to do this!"

Gu Xiuping quickly took over the conversation, and Gu Xiu'an kept nodding, expressing his agreement with his two brothers.

"Sister is a girl. Didn't I teach you that boys should take care of girls at all times?"

Gu Jingming spoke to them in a serious tone.

The children nodded thoughtfully, then put down their bowls and began to peel the shrimp in unison.

They put all the peeled shrimps into Ye Qingtao's bowl.

Ye Qingtao originally saw Gu Jingming busy and planned to be self-reliant, but she didn't expect that there would suddenly be so many more laborers.

In a short while, the shrimps in her bowl piled up.

"Stop, stop, stop. I can't eat so much. You can just peel the shrimp and eat them yourself."

Ye Qingtao protected the bowl in front of her to prevent them from putting more shrimps into it.

Gu Jingming was also stunned. These little guys were really good at learning and applying what they learned. He had to admit that they were better than them.

The children also listened to Ye Qingtao's advice. They stopped when Ye Qingtao said they had enough shrimps.

Ye Qingtao happily finished a bowl of shrimps and her stomach was full.

"Sister, do you want to eat some shrimp? I'll peel them for you!"

Gu Xiuyuan saw her put down her bowl and chopsticks, and quickly put a shrimp he had just peeled over to her.

"Sister is full, you can eat by yourself."

Ye Qingtao looked at the children with a smile, and suddenly realized that if these children knew shame and courtesy, listened to advice, and the adults in the family were also open-minded, then their grandmother would really know how to educate the children.

Ye Qingtao peeled shrimps for them from time to time and only washed her hands after they finished eating.

After dinner, Ye Qingtao watched TV with the children for a while and stood up again.

"Lunch is over, so I should go back now."

"Sister, why don't you stay for a while? Have dinner before going back?"

Before Gu Jingming could say anything, Gu Xiuyuan had already grabbed her hand and tried to keep her affectionately.

"No, I've been away for too long this time. I have to go back and report my safety first."

"Okay then, can I go play with my sister?"

Seeing that this method didn't work, Gu Xiuyuan tried another one.

This child is really good at handling things. Gu Jingming's mouth corners slightly raised.

I used to think he talked too much, but now I realize that he is my best mouthpiece.

"Sure, Xiuyuan, you can come over whenever you are free. Aunt Ye welcomes you anytime."

Ye Qingtao agreed readily, and Gu Xiuyuan jumped and danced happily on the spot.

"That's great, that's great, my sister agreed to let me go find her!"

"Only my brother is welcome? Then are we welcome?"

Gu Xiuping looked at her eagerly, with a somewhat pitiful expression.

Gu Xiu'an also looked at her and grabbed her sleeve with his little hand, and what he wanted to express was very obvious.

"Welcome, welcome, everyone is welcome!"

Ye Qingtao looked at them and felt as if they were jealous, and she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Smiles appeared on the children's faces, and Gu Jingming quickly interrupted.

"So I was popular in the past, right?"

Ye Qingtao snorted softly. Isn't this guy asking even though he knows the answer? The last time he went there, her parents were so enthusiastic about him.

She asked him all kinds of questions, and even before they got the marriage certificate, she already treated him as her son-in-law.

Gu Jingming took off his coat and sent Ye Qingtao home.

The children stood in a row at the door, looking at her reluctantly.

Gu Xiu'an was still pulling her clothes and shaking them gently.

When Ye Qingtao turned around, she saw his sparkling eyes.

Ye Qingtao reached out and touched his furry little head, then said to him with a smile.

"If you like me, come play with me next time."

Gu Xiu'an nodded seriously and then let go of his hand.

Gu Jingming opened the car door and invited Ye Qingtao to get in like a gentleman.

"Didn't you say this car was borrowed? Why have you been using it all these days?"

The book only said that Gu Jingming's family was wealthy, but did not provide further information, so Ye Qingtao was not very clear about his family situation.

Ye Qingtao was wondering if she didn't have to return the borrowed items or if she had to borrow them for many days.

"We have a good relationship, so there is no need to rush to pay it back."

Gu Jingming responded with a smile, and Ye Qingtao got into the car without further worrying about this issue.

On the way back, Gu Jingming drove very slowly.

The journey that was supposed to take more than half an hour took him more than 50 minutes.

Ye Qingtao sat upright in the car, looking at the scenery outside from time to time.

The car stopped at the gate of the residential compound where Ye Qingtao lived.

Gu Jingming sat in the car and was reluctant to get up. Ye Qingtao couldn't hold it anymore.

"Then I'll leave first."

"I'll take you there."

Gu Jingming immediately got out of the car, walked around to her side and opened the door for her.

"I'm already at the door, do I still need to send it?"

Ye Qingtao pointed to the location of the house, and Gu Jingming had a stern face.

"I have to see you enter the house with my own eyes, otherwise I will be worried."

The smile on Ye Qingtao's face became brighter and brighter. She shook her hair and walked forward first. Gu Jingming locked the car and followed closely.

Just as Ye Qingtao reached the door of her house, a slightly haggard figure ran out from the side of the house.

Lu Yunchuan's voice was hurried, the veins on his forehead were bulging, and his face was filled with rage.

"Ye Qingtao, did you not go home last night?"
