Jiang Shanshan smiled politely, "Thank you for the compliment. I hope today's meal suits your taste."
"It's more than just to my taste, it's simply perfect. I love it." Steven excitedly cut off another piece of beef with a knife and put it into his mouth to taste it slowly.
At the dinner table, after listening to Steven’s personal instruction, several elderly people slowly tried to do it using the method he had just mentioned.
Maybe they were old, their hands and feet were not coordinated or something, in any case, none of them could eat a single bite of the beef in front of them.
Finally, Zhang Jinguo, who was already angry because he had not eaten meat, immediately threw down the knife and fork in his hands, rolled up his sleeves without saying a word, picked up the steak in front of him, put it in his mouth and started to bite it.
Seeing this, the other elderly people didn't hesitate and started eating like him.
"It's more comfortable to eat like this. Like he said just now, using a knife and a fork, cutting like this, and poking like that, it's so troublesome. It's better to eat it like this." Zhang Jinguo said loudly with a mouth full of oil.
"That's right, this is how we Chinese eat meat. Cutting it with a knife makes us look like women, it's so ugly." Wu Fanyou also said.
Steven saw them like this, smiled and shook his head, and continued to cut his favorite beef with a knife.
Everyone ate and drank, and the meal lasted for an hour and a half.
Before leaving, Steven gave each of the children in the family a red envelope.
"It's local custom. I know you give red envelopes during the New Year, so I prepared some." He said to Jiang Shanshan and others with a smile.
Before leaving, Steven suddenly stuck his head out of the car window and said, "Comrade Xu, please don't forget the agreement we made. Just wait for my good news. On your side, just prepare what I need."
The two men said this tacitly, and then Steven asked the driver to drive away.
As soon as the car left, another car came, but it did not stop at Zhang's house, but at the door of Zhou's house next door.
"Aunt Jiang." After a while, a small figure ran out of the car, trotted over and called out to her.
Jiang Shanshan touched Xiaofei's head and said, "Dudu and the others are inside, let's go play with them."
"Well, then, Aunt Jiang and Uncle Xu, goodbye." After saying that, the little figure quickly flew into Zhang's house.
At this moment, two adults came out of the car, Wen Lan and Zhou Chen.
"I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me. Go park the car and I'll talk to Shanshan." Wen Lan pushed the man who had been following her.
Zhou Chen looked worried. "Are you really okay? Actually, you don't need to listen to them. We have moved out. How they live is theirs, and how we live is ours. We just need to be happy."
"I know. Go park the car and don't block the road." She nodded.
Zhou Chen stayed there for more than ten seconds. Finally, facing his wife's angry glare, he turned back to the car, intending to park the car before comforting his wife.
After watching the car start and leave, Jiang Shanshan walked up to Landy Wen and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"
