Gu’s mom and Gu Nuan exchanged a glance.
Thinking it was really so.
Don’t look at Da Bai’s sharp tongue, but when it comes to her and her daughter, that mouth was definitely coated with honey, sickly sweet to the point of being cloying.
Gu’s mom remembered, feeling that no one could compare to her son-in-law when it came to winning her favor with his words. This update ıs available on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝓷𝓮𝓽
The hearts of the two women settled, especially after hearing the sound of someone climbing the stairs not long afterwards.
Gu’s dad and Da Bai came back to the dining table for the meal.
Gu’s mom served her son-in-law some dishes.
Gu’s dad asked Gu’s mom, "Does he like seafood?"
"Yes," Gu’s mom nodded.
Gu’s dad pursed his lips slightly, impressed by how the son-in-law could please his wife. Although it’s natural for a mother-in-law to dote on her son-in-law, the seafood must have cost a lot of money, probably as much as Gu’s mom’s retirement fund for the whole month.
Da Bai wagged his tail to his mother-in-law, "Mom, you eat too, I can’t finish it all by myself."
Gu’s mom immediately said, "Nonsense. Last time I was at your place, I saw you finish an entire plate of prawns by yourself."
Da Bai clearly didn’t realize how much he could eat. Speaking of which, the first time his wife cooked for him, he finished all of her chicken legs before remembering she hadn’t had any.
"Being able to eat is a good thing, it means a person is healthy." Gu’s mom liked a son-in-law who had a good appetite.
As the saying goes, a man who can eat and work is capable. A man with a good appetite shows he’s competent.
Hearing these words from his mother-in-law, Da Bai ate with even more enthusiasm.
After the meal, the plates on the dining table were almost completely cleared, which made Gu’s mom, the chef, very happy. Next up, the task of washing dishes—Da Bai wanted to do them, but unfortunately his hand was injured, so he had to let his wife take over.
Zhang Sanfeng felt it wasn’t right to be unable to help out as a guest, so he devoted himself to making tea for everyone after the meal.
Gu’s dad, having eaten his fill and cooled his temper, slumped on the sofa with Da Bai, the two men watching TV, savoring the fragrance of the tea, enjoying a leisurely home life that couldn’t be any better for them.
Da Bai couldn’t help but squint in contentment, feeling that he and his father-in-law hit it off instantly, sharing similar temperaments and hobbies.
After belching satisfactorily, Gu’s dad finally remembered something and turned to his son-in-law, "You can’t be like me. You’ve got to help your wife around the house more, do some housework. The standard for a good man now is to be able to hold his own both in the kitchen and in the living room."
Zhang Sanfeng smiled subtly with his perfect thin lips on the side.
Such a father-in-law was adorable no matter how you looked at it. Everything he said was so endearing.
Xiao Yebai immediately puffed out his chest, responding like a soldier to a commander, very seriously, "Yes! I will definitely follow Dad’s orders."
"Good, good," Gu’s dad patted his shoulder twice, pouring out some heartfelt words, "Although, you seem a bit frivolous—"
"Dad, I’m not frivolous, besides Nuannuan, I don’t touch any other women. If I touch other women, I’ll have an allergic reaction."
To this defense from Da Bai, Gu’s dad just took it as the son-in-law trying to ingratiate himself by joking and didn’t take it seriously, saying, "Men are smooth talkers, I understand that, so I will only look at your actions."
It showed how smart Gu’s dad was, not so easily fooled by anyone.
While they were talking, Gu’s dad suddenly received a phone call from a friend.
Xiao Yebai and Zhang Sanfeng overheard and realized that Gu’s dad had been buying lottery tickets with a group of friends.
