Chen Zhigang sat down on the other side of Song Huaimin, "Dad, long."
"good!"
Song Huaimin agreed and picked up the chopsticks.
He tasted every dish and drank the soup that Chen Zhigang served him.
Chen Zhigang had been staring at Song Huaimin eagerly, and only then asked, "Dad, how is it?"
Song Huaimin nodded in satisfaction. "Not bad! Delicious! Even better than your mother's cooking!"
Mr. Song and Song Manman also nodded, "That's right!"
Song Huaimin took a few more bites before putting down his chopsticks and looking at Chen Zhigang with a smile, "Can you tell us now? Who did this?"
"Dad, I asked him before, but he just wouldn't tell me. He even insisted that Grandpa and I wait upstairs, saying he wanted to give us a surprise and that he wouldn't tell us until you came back!"
Song Manman's words sounded like she was complaining, but there was a smile in her words, and anyone could tell that she was showing off.
Chen Zhigang smiled awkwardly and then said, "It's not that I didn't want to tell you in advance, it's just that it's not easy to say. I thought, Manman can't cook, and neither can I, let alone Dad and Grandpa. We can't eat at state-owned restaurants every day, and it's not good to trouble Uncle Ni, so I thought, let's just find a nanny.
I wasn't comfortable letting a stranger live in my house, so I thought of my cousin. My cousin's husband died in a fall at work six months ago. Afterward, his family bullied my cousin, snatched away the compensation money and the work she'd received from the factory, and drove her back home.
My cousin didn't want to find a man to rely on anymore, so she wanted to earn some money by doing her own thing and supporting herself. It just so happened that our family was in need of someone to do laundry and cooking, and my cousin was able to do it, so we just asked her to come. Let her cook this table of food first, so you can see her cooking skills.
After hearing what Chen Zhigang said, Old Master Song nodded in satisfaction. "You are very thoughtful, good! Your cousin is also a good person and cooks well. I have no objection. Second brother, what do you think?"
Since Mr. Song said he had no objection, Song Huaimin himself would have even less objection.
"Dad, I have no objection either."
Chen Zhigang looked at Song Manman, "Manman, what about you?"
Song Manman smiled sweetly at Chen Zhigang, "I don't think you have any objections! Your cousin is my cousin! Our cousin cooks really delicious food! Where is she? Let her come out and eat with us!"
Old Master Song looked at Song Manman with satisfaction, "Manman is really becoming more and more sensible now! Zhigang, ask your aunt to come out and let's have dinner together! If outsiders ask, just say your aunt is here to visit relatives and help with cooking and washing clothes, don't say she's a nanny."
Even though everyone knows that the extra person in the house who does the laundry and cooking is the nanny, they will never say it out loud.
No matter who asks, they will say they are relatives.
This has become an unspoken agreement among the people in the compound.
Chen Zhigang nodded seriously, "Dad, Grandpa, I know. I'll go call my aunt out right now. She's in the kitchen!"
As he spoke, Chen Zhigang stood up and quickly walked into the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Jiang Rong was already waiting.
When he saw Chen Zhigang come in, he quickly adjusted his facial expression. Seeing Chen Zhigang nodded, he took the bowl and followed Chen Zhigang out.
The place where Song Huaimin sat was facing the kitchen door.
He was also curious about what Chen Zhigang's aunt looked like, so he looked up in the direction of the kitchen.
As soon as Jiang Rong came out, she met Song Huaimin's eyes. Her fair cheeks turned red instantly, her eyes became a little flustered, and she quickly looked away.
Song Huaimin's breathing quickened for a moment, but he quickly recovered and calmly looked away.
