Chapter 176: What can an uneducated little girl do?
Father Shi sat down on the sofa, his eyes fell on Shi Lu, and asked softly, "How is the company running recently?"
"is acceptable."
"If you encounter any difficulties or need help, just let me know," Shi's father continued.
"No, Dad. I can handle it on my own."
"That girlfriend you're dating..."
"Dad, I won't give up on her easily. Please stop trying to persuade me." Shi Lu interrupted his father in a firm tone.
"Why are you so anxious? What did I say? You are as impatient as your mother."
"Take her home for a meal if you have the chance. It's been so many years, and it's true that we, the elders, didn't handle this matter well."
Shi Lu was somewhat surprised by Shi's father's answer, and he couldn't help wondering what had caused his father's attitude to change.
"Okay, thank you, Dad." Shi Lu looked at his father gratefully.
"You little brat! How many times have you and your mother quarreled over this?" Shi's father smiled helplessly.
"Dad, you don't know what my mom said."
"Your mother, she really had a hard life when she was a child. Although she is harsh in words, she is actually softer and kinder than anyone else in her heart." Shi Lu's father said earnestly.
"With our family's current conditions and strength, how could we possibly let Mom suffer a little?"
"You have to be more considerate of your mother! She has been busy running around for our family all her life. Everything she does is to hope that your future life will be easier and happier." The father continued to persuade patiently.
"Dad, I understand all this, but when it comes to emotional matters, I still hope to make decisions according to my own ideas. Just like when you insisted on marrying Mom home despite grandma's opposition." Shi Lu retorted with a smile.
"How dare you, kid, make fun of me!" the father scolded with a helpless smile.
"Dad, think about it, if you were asked to marry someone who has no feelings for you and live the rest of your life like a robot, would you be willing?" Shi Lu asked seriously.
"Okay, Dad has nothing against you. It's just that I heard from your sister before that the girl works in a bar." The father expressed his concerns.
"Dad, don't worry, she only went to work there because she was angry with me."
"Okay, I get it. Go to the kitchen and see what delicious food your mother is cooking, and give her a hand."
His father patted Shi Lu's shoulder and signaled him to act quickly.
"okay!"
With his father's support, Shi Lu's mood suddenly became cheerful.
He walked quickly into the kitchen and shouted to his busy mother, "Mom, let me help you!"
"What can you do? Don't make trouble for me here, just get out!" the mother said loudly without turning her head.
"Mom, please go out and have a rest. Let me cook today."
"Huh? Can you cook? I've never seen you cook before." Mother turned and looked at him with a puzzled look.
"Yes, don't worry, I promise I won't burn down your kitchen."
"No, what if I get hurt?"
"Isn't Aunt Liu here? With her by my side to guide me, nothing will go wrong. Dad asked me to call you, go ahead."
"Madam, let the young master try it. This is also a show of filial piety on his part."
"Well, Aunt Liu, you have to watch him carefully and make sure he doesn't get hurt."
Shi's mother hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed, but she still reminded Liu Ma to take good care of Shi Lu.
"Got it, ma'am."
Shi's mother sighed helplessly and turned back to the living room.
"Master, let me do it. You have never done these things before." Aunt Liu tried to take over the work from Shi Lu.
"Aunt Liu, just stand by and help me. Trust me."
"Okay." Aunt Liu nodded with a smile.
I saw that Shi Lu's movements were very skillful and smooth, and it didn't take long before he had prepared several dishes that were delicious.
……
"Auntie Liu, take the dishes out. We can start eating now."
Shi Lu looked at the fruits of his labor with satisfaction, a proud smile on his face.
"Okay, okay. Master, I didn't expect you to be able to do it."
Aunt Liu brought the dishes to the table with a smile and shouted, "Master, Madam, it's time to eat."
Father and Mother walked over slowly and saw the table full of sumptuous dishes. They couldn't help but show surprise: "Aunt Liu, this..."
"Madam, these were all cooked by the young master himself. I can't do much to help." Aunt Liu replied with a smile.
Father Shi sat down with satisfaction and exclaimed: "This brat is really getting better and better!"
After hearing his father's praise, Shi Lu came out of the kitchen and asked with a smile, "Dad, how do you think it tastes?"
"I haven't tasted it yet, but when did you learn to cook?" Shi's father asked curiously.
"Yiyi is busy with work and has no time to eat, so I learn whenever I have time."
However, when Shi's mother heard this, she was a little unhappy and muttered, "What can a little girl with no education do? She just orders you around all day long."
"Mom..." Shi Lu tried to persuade his mother, but was interrupted before he could finish his words.
"My son has never done these things since he was a child. If it weren't for her, how could you be so disobedient?" Shi's mother continued to complain.
"Okay, can't you stop talking just because of the delicious food?" Shi's father couldn't help but scolded and stopped Shi's mother from nagging.
So the family sat down in silence and began to eat.
Although Shi Mu was harsh in her words, she actually felt a little relieved deep down in her heart.
After all, he would never do these things before, but since meeting Jiang Yi, he has indeed changed a lot.
Shi Mu was still somewhat unhappy.
Every time she saw Jiang Yi talking back to her, she always felt that this girl was too arrogant and domineering.
"Mom, Yiyi is not what you said."
"Don't mention her to me. I've lost my appetite."
"Can't you just talk to the child calmly?" Shi's father interrupted.
"Mom, Yiyi has a bit of a bad temper, but she's a very nice person. Do you know Chenqi's wife?"
When she heard Huo Chenqi's name, her eyes lit up, "What's wrong?"
"Yiyi is from the same school as her, and graduated with a master's degree."
"Are you talking about her?" Shi's mother sneered.
"Yes, you misunderstood her."
"Impossible. Your sister said she came from the countryside. How could she possibly be studying for a master's degree?"
"Mom, look at you, you don't believe anything I say."
"Don't mention her, eat."
Shi Lu felt an indescribable helplessness rising in his heart, and he sighed softly.
Yiyi is looking forward to getting his family's blessing, which is very important for a relationship...
"Eat." Seeing this, Shi's father picked up a piece of meat and put it in his bowl, giving him a reassuring look.
