Ning Shan smiled shyly again. After all, she had been eating alone for the past few days. It was her first time sitting at the same table with Gu Minghuai, so she was not used to it.
Gu Minghuai did not think much of it. He looked at the dishes on the table and said, “They look good and look delicious. I didn’t expect you to know how to cook these.”
“Try them. I’m not bragging, but they should taste good too.” Ning Shan smiled simply and innocently.
Therefore, when elder Mrs. Gu came in with her daughter-in-law and grandson-in-law, a tempting aroma of food hit her. In front of her were the two people who were about to start eating at the dining table.
“Minghuai, are you just about to have dinner?” elder Mrs. Gu’s voice suddenly sounded in the living room. Her tone was calm, no one could tell how she felt.
“Grandmother?” Gu Minghuai turned his head and saw a group of four people. He then looked at the servant, “Why are you here, grandmother?”
Elder Mrs. Gu smiled faintly. “Don’t blame the servant. I just wanted to come and see you. I didn’t ask anyone to notify you.”
“See me?” Gu Minghuai glanced at his mother, brother, and sister-in-law. His eyes were cold. “I’m afraid it’s not that simple.”
When Ning Shan heard the word ‘grandmother’ and saw that Mrs. Gu, Gu Minghuai’s brother, and sister-in-law had come, she got up in fright, she bowed respectfully. “Grandmother Gu, Aunty Gu, Mr. Gu’s elder brother and elder sister-in-law, good evening. Would you like to come over for dinner?”
After some thought, she said respectfully, “Grandmother Gu, nice to meet you. My name Is Ning Shan. I’m temporarily staying at Mr. Gu’s place. I hope I’m not disturbing you.”
When elder Mrs. Gu entered, her first reaction was that her grandson had eaten on time!
For this reason, she could not help but glanced at Ning Shan a few more times. Seeing that the other party was very polite and there was nothing uncomfortable about her words and actions, she felt a little happy.
“Miss Ning, how are you?” elder Mrs. Gu smiled. “I was hoping that we didn’t disturb you and Minghuai’s meal. Do you really not mind having a few more pairs of chopsticks on the table?”
When Mrs. Gu, the eldest brother and sister-in-law of the Gu family heard this, they were so shocked that their jaws almost fell off.
“Mother…” Mrs. Gu frowned in dissatisfaction.
Elder Mrs. Gu ignored her.
Ning Shan smiled sincerely. “Why would that be a bother? I’m very happy to be able to have a meal with everyone, only by having a lively meal can I have an appetite.”
“Grandmother, you guys can sit down and eat together.” Gu Minghuai agreed.
Ning Shan wanted to run to the kitchen when she heard that. “Then I’ll go and make a few more dishes.”
“No need,” Gu Minghuai stopped her. “You can eat with us. Ask chef Chen to make a few dishes and serve them.”
At this moment, a servant came up and arranged the bowls, chopsticks, and tablecloths for the four of them. Elder Mrs. Gu smiled and sat down. “Miss Ning, you don’t have to do the work. Talk to us and eat with us.”
Hearing this, Ning Shan didn’t insist.
Mrs. Gu and the Gu family’s eldest brother and sister-in-law did not know what was going on, so they could only sit down helplessly.
After tasting a few mouthfuls, elder Mrs. Gu was delighted. “Is there a change of the chef? Although these are all home-cooked dishes, they taste different and are really good. It makes me want to stay with you all.”
Gu Minghuai was not disagreeing with her about this. The appetizing taste of these dishes danced happily on his taste buds, making him want to continue eating them. They were indeed very special.
Ning Shan smiled shyly. “Grandmother Gu, I made all these. I grew up in the countryside and learned a lot of tricks of cooking from my father.”
“You made them?” Brother and sister-in-law of the Gu family said at the same time. Their expressions seemed to say, “I don’t believe it!”!
Mrs. Gu lectured her sternly, “Why are you calling her your grandmother? You should call her elder Mrs. Gu. Don’t you know etiquette?”
“Sigh, she didn’t call me by the wrong name. Why are you picking on her?” elder Mrs. Gu kindly looked over at Ning Shan. For some reason, the more she looked at this girl, the more she liked her, “Growing up in the countryside? No wonder you look so pretty. Your looks are simple and pure. I feel happy just looking at you.”
This was the first time Ning Shan was praised by an elder of the Gu family. Her happiness was written directly on her face. “Grandmother Gu, if you like, I can often cook for you.”
As she said this, she was a little excited and proud. “My dad taught me a lot of cooking secrets!”
Elder Mrs. Gu was so happy that her eyes were blooming. “Okay, then I’ll have a good time in the future!”
