650: Chapter 631: Don’t Celebrate Too Early 650: Chapter 631: Don’t Celebrate Too Early Tangyu had a feeling he would be in for a treat, and indeed he was.
The dishes that Huangfu Jing’s mother made were really delicious and had the authentic taste of Capital City.
Even though it was Tangyu’s first time trying this style, it was indeed very tasty.
“Hehe, our taste here is a bit light, Tangyu, are you accustomed to it?” Huangfu Jing’s mother was graceful and loving, a perfect example of a virtuous wife and good mother.
Wouldn’t any eligible young person want her as their future mother-in-law upon seeing such an aunt?
At least, Tangyu thought so.
“I’m accustomed to it, totally accustomed to it.
Auntie, your cooking skills are really great, so delicious.” Tangyu nodded repeatedly.
He was quite eloquent with his words, and indeed, he was enjoying the food a lot.
Seeing his somewhat inelegant way of eating, Huangfu Jing had kicked him under the table more than once to remind him, but Tangyu kicked back a few times, playing a little flirtatious game under the table, which secretly made Huangfu Jing glare at him.
Huangfu, however, was very easy-going and didn’t mind these little details.
After all, coming from a non-aristocratic family, Tangyu’s manners and cultivation were already quite good.
To require higher standards from him would be somewhat excessive.
Women like to be complimented on their cooking skills; often, this kind of vanity is even more gratifying than being praised for their beauty.
“Hehe, I just made a few simple home-cooked dishes, nothing special.
If you find it tasty, eat more.” Huangfu Jing’s mother said with a smile that wouldn’t close.
Huangfu also said, “Yes, Tangyu, feel free, eat as much as you like if you enjoy it, don’t feel embarrassed.
It’s no trouble for us; just help yourself.”
“Hmm, I won’t be polite, Grandpa Huangfu, don’t stop eating either, or I’ll really feel a bit embarrassed.” Tangyu was indeed very adaptable, saying he wouldn’t be polite meant he really wouldn’t be.
This aspect of his personality seemed to satisfy Mr.
Huangfu, who nodded in approval.
Direct and straightforward, he liked this kind of personality.
Huangfu had seen many people in his life, from street hoodlums to rich businessmen; all kinds of characters he had encountered, but Tangyu gave him a unique impression.
This was Tangyu’s first visit, and he quickly blended into the warm atmosphere of the Huangfu family, feeling a bit like a future son-in-law visiting for the first time.
“By the way, Tangyu, your medical skills are really extraordinary.
I’ve seen some of those reports about you on TV.
Your medical skills are remarkable.
Can you take a look at my aunt and tell us how her complexion is?” Huangfu Jing’s mother suddenly spoke.
Women love beauty, and this doesn’t change even for middle-aged women.
Huangfu Jing’s mother obviously cared deeply about this as well.
“Mom, we’re eating, why bring up this topic now?” Huangfu Jing said.
If we don’t find some topics to talk about while eating, how dull and quiet it would be.
It’s Tangyu’s first visit to our house, let’s not scare him with such a quiet environment,” Huangfu Jing’s mother disagreed.
Tangyu smiled and after observing Huangfu Jing’s mother, he said, “Auntie, you must be very healthy.
From your complexion, everything seems fine.
You must have put some effort into skincare, which is why you, being in your forties, look like you’re just in your early thirties.
If you were to walk down the street with Huangfu Jing, others might mistake you two for sisters.”
“Hehehe, indeed many people say that,” Huangfu Jing’s mother laughed, even more pleased.
Huangfu Jing gave Tangyu a sudden glance, wondering when his mouth had become so sweet.
“However, auntie, using cosmetics long term is not good, both for your skin and your health.
Even the best cosmetics contain many chemical components, and long-term use can damage the skin.
So, I would suggest you use less makeup in the future.
Of course, the best way to maintain your skin is to take some traditional medicine.
I’ll write you a prescription later; after taking it your skin will definitely be more tender and glossy, definitely better than the effects of cosmetics,” Tangyu said.
Huangfu Jing’s mother was instantly delighted: “Hehehe, really?
Is there really such a prescription?
Then auntie won’t be polite.”
“Yes, there are many such traditional medicine prescriptions, and they are very effective and also good for your health,” Tangyu said.
“Hehe, then I must use it.
If I had known there was such good stuff, I would have used it earlier,” Huangfu Jing’s mother said, her look towards Tangyu now even more satisfied.
A little while later, Huangfu Jing’s mother couldn’t resist and said, “Tangyu, could you check my husband as well?
I feel that his stamina has not been great recently, and he easily gets breathless.
What do you think is the matter?”
As soon as Huangfu Jing’s mother spoke, everyone was startled, especially Huangfu Jing’s dad who looked at her incredulously.
Huangfu Jing also slightly moved and looked at her mom with a bit of a peculiar expression.
Huangfu Jing’s mother, however, was puzzled: “Why are you all looking at me like that?
Dear, haven’t you been unable to run 5000 meters without gasping when you go jogging in the mornings recently?
You used to run 5000 meters as just a warm-up.
Did I say something wrong?”
