Wu Yulan was busy cooking in the kitchen, while Chen Jianwen went downstairs in his coat to buy cooking wine.

Chen Shuo sat on the sofa and took a sugar orange from the coffee table. Winter is the time when sugar oranges are the sweetest, and they are also one of the must-have items for the New Year. Every time I buy one, I buy a box, but they will never survive the New Year.

Thirty night.

He handed the peeled orange to Bai Xiaoqi, looked at the kitchen again, and couldn't help but whisper: "You have a good nose, why didn't you tell me earlier when the food was gone?"

"You don't want me to take the initiative to talk to you?" Bai Xiaoqi stuffed the oranges into her mouth. Her words were unclear, but her expression was absolutely confident.

"...."

"Okay, it's my fault. Anyway, I can't eat the ribs today. Let me tell you, the ribs made by my mother are delicious, you know?"

"I don't know, I haven't eaten it before." Bai Xiaoqi swallowed the orange in her mouth and glanced at the orange on the coffee table. She wanted to reach out to take it but felt that it was not good, so she looked at Chen Shuo helplessly.

It goes without saying.

"..."

Looking at her with that look, Chen Shuo's heart skipped a beat, and he felt like he was about to become cute, "Don't look at me like that, I'll peel it off for you."

There was the sound of cooking in the kitchen, and the fragrance was faintly wafting out, and the living room seemed to have fallen silent. One of them was peeling and the other was eating, which was extremely harmonious.

The silence was not broken until Chen Jianwen walked in. He looked at the two people on the sofa, said nothing, and entered the kitchen carrying cooking wine.

"Why have you been here for so long? Have you bought ribs?"

"You didn't say you wanted to buy it."

"I didn't tell you that you didn't know how to buy some. You are the same person. When I shouted that I couldn't get any spare ribs, you should have known..."

Wu Yulan was mid-sentence, but suddenly stopped. Chen Jianwen took out a plastic bag from nowhere, shook it twice, and the ribs inside were faintly visible.

Seeing his wife stunned, Chen Jianwen was amused, "Can I not buy it? I don't know you yet. I know what you are going to fart as soon as you lift your butt."

As he said that, he happily put the plastic bag containing the ribs on the eucalyptus board: "I want to eat braised pork ribs."

"No, just eat the fart!"

"..."

Chen Jianwen was kicked out of the kitchen. As soon as he came out and met Chen Shuo's eyes, he suppressed his expression and said, "What are you looking at? Your mother said that the ribs will not be braised in braised pork today, but will be made sweet and sour."

"Where did the ribs come from? Aren't they all in the lake?"

"I just bought it."

Chen Jianwen answered casually, subconsciously wanting to go into the study, but feeling it was inappropriate, he hesitated and walked to the sofa to sit down, far away from the two of them.

I stretched my arms to reach the big tea cup on the coffee table, but couldn't reach it.

I coughed lightly, but there was no response. I coughed again, but there was still no response.

Chen Shuo lowered his head and was busy peeling oranges. When he heard several dry coughs in succession, he couldn't help but raise his head and said, "Dad, do you have a discomfort in your throat?"

"Get the teacup for me."

"oh."

Chen Shuo handed him the tea cup, and Chen Jianwen took it, took a few sips, looked at the two of them, opened his mouth to say something, but kept silent.

When your children fall in love, parents will definitely have a lot to ask. At least you should first ask about the other person’s job, where they live at home, and what their parents do.

But Chen Jianwen felt that he didn't know how to speak, and he always felt a little uncomfortable.

The girl's mouth never stopped eating oranges, and she ate them very naturally.

Compared with her, Chen Jianwen felt that he was the one who came as a guest.

Recall carefully, when I took Wu Yulan to meet her parents, she seemed to be sitting in a polite manner, and she only took a few symbolic bites of the food she was given.

As for meeting her father-in-law, not to mention, she didn't even dare to raise her head and look at her family members.

Chen Jianwen held the tea cup with a serious look on his face and drank for a long time. He felt that it was a bit unnecessary for him to sit here, so he said: "You two sit down, I have something else to do, so I have to go and do it first."

After that, he got up and went back to the study.

Seeing the old man entering the house, Chen Shuo whispered: "My dad is nervous."

"Nervous?" Bai Xiaoqi was startled, then thought about it and said, "You have a fierce face, but you don't look nervous at all."

"He's not mean, he's serious. But don't look at his seriousness. In fact, he's just pretending. He's more panicked than anyone else."

Chen Shuo peeled off the last orange on the coffee table, handed it to her, and said with a smile: "You think everyone is like you."

"I'm a little nervous too."

"Where are you nervous?"

"look."

Bai Xiaoqi stuffed the orange into her mouth, and while chewing it, she stretched out her fingers to show him the twitching cheeks on both sides. Chen Shuo looked at it in confusion for a while before he understood, and couldn't help but laugh.

When Chen Jianwen was here just now, although her mouth never stopped, but thinking about it carefully, it seemed that she couldn't let go a little bit. The range of her cheeks was not as big as it is now, and it was a relatively small range of chirping.

.

"Wash your hands and get ready to eat." Wu Yulan took the dishes out of the kitchen, saw only two people sitting in the living room, and couldn't help asking: "Where is your dad?"

"He went back to the study. He said he had something to do."

"Then you take...um...Xiao Qi first, right? You two go wash your hands first, and I'll call him."

"Oh." Chen Shuo pulled the orange peels piled up on the coffee table into the trash can, and then took Bai Xiaoqi to wash her hands.

As Bai Xiaoqi walked, she didn't forget to look at this home with inquiring eyes. It was several times larger than that small one-bedroom apartment, and it was also very beautifully decorated.

There is also a small dining room dedicated to eating, and the bathroom is also very big.

"My mother may start asking you questions during the meal, so be prepared." After washing his hands and coming out, Chen Shuo whispered, led her to sit down at the dining table, and ran to serve the family a meal.

.

Bai Xiaoqi didn't know whether she heard it or not. She stared at the dishes on the table, looking at them one by one, her little nose kept twitching.

smell good.

"Chen Shuo said that you are from the south and like to eat sweet food. My aunt has never made many dishes. I don't know if these dishes are to your liking." Wu Yulan also took off her apron and came over at this time, still holding a cup in her hand.

A pot of soup.

"Well, I'm from the South."

"Where are you from the south? Auntie, your speech sounds quite standard. I don't think you have any southern accent at all."

"Mom, although she is from the south, she grew up in the north." Chen Shuo came over with a meal and intervened forcefully.

"Oh, then you are coming with your parents..."

"She has no parents."

"...."

The air suddenly became dull. Chen Jianwen choked and looked at Chen Shuo again. Last time the brat said that the girl was an orphan, he still didn't believe it, but this time it seemed that it was true.

"Come on, eat quickly, the food is getting cold." Wu Yulan greeted, breaking the silence.

"Come on, try this. The pork ribs made by my mother are delicious. This sweet and sour pork ribs is specially made for you."

Chen Shuo started to pick up vegetables for her, and Wu Yulan also helped to serve soup. A bowl of bone soup was placed in front of her, "Auntie, I heard that people in the south like to drink soup. This soup takes a long time to stew.

You can try it this afternoon."

"Thank you, auntie."

Bai Xiaoqi thanked her aloud, looked at the tube bone soup in front of her, and then at Wu Yulan, who was full of enthusiasm, and suddenly felt dark in her heart.
