Chapter 346: 111: The lovely Mrs. Shangguan, heavily mistreats the family of Qian Zhaodi_1
“Why can’t I eat sweets anymore?” Elderly Madam Shangguan became worried as soon as she heard she couldn’t have sweets anymore.
“Granny, you have diabetes, so eating too many sweets is bad for your health.”
Elderly Madam Shangguan started to play dumb in order to eat sweets, “Since when do I have diabetes? I don’t remember having diabetes at all. I don’t care; I want to drink something sweet.”
Old baby, old baby — once you grow old, you revert to being a child.
Shangguan Xi, feeling helpless, said: “Granny, have you forgotten what the doctor told you? If you eat too much sugar, it will make your condition worse.”
“Those damn idiots only know how to exaggerate the dangers!” Elderly Madam Shangguan grumbled unhappily: “I’ve been eating sugar all my life, and now that I’m old, they suddenly won’t let me eat any….”
This year, Elderly Madam Shangguan is already 88 years old. Apart from a slight case of diabetes, she’s still robust.
“Xixi, your grandmother’s good grandson, will you let me have something sweet to drink?” Elderly Madam Shangguan held onto Shangguan Xi’s clothing, begging for sweet food with a childish charm.
“Just once, granny promises only once, and granny swears it.” Elderly Madam Shangguan raised three of her fingers.
“Granny, it doesn’t matter if you swear five times; you really can’t eat anything too sweet.”
Elderly Madam Shangguan grunted lightly, “Are you still granny’s good grandson?”
Shangguan Xi smiled and said: “Granny, I’m going to get you milk tea now.”
Elderly Madam Shangguan proudly lifted her face, ignoring Shangguan Xi completely.
Although there’s a line waiting for milk tea as well, the speed at which the cups are served is much faster than for noodles, so Shangguan Xi quickly returned with three cups of milk tea.
“Granny, this is yours, this is my brother’s. This one’s mine.”
Elderly Madam Shangguan pointed at Shangguan Xi’s cup and said: “Young fellow, I want to drink this one.”
“No,” Shangguan Xi shook his head, “This one’s mine, mine is full sugar.”
“Why is yours full-sugar and mine half-sugar?”
Shangguan Xi with a helpless tone: “Granny, you need to listen to the doctor’s advice.”
Elderly Madam Shangguan was indignant: “I’ve never listened to anyone in my life, not even your grandfather. Why should I listen to that brat doctor?”
Shangguan Xi quickly inserted the straw into his cup and drank a large gulp of milk tea, “I’ve already had a sip, granny, do you still want it?”
Elderly Madam Shangguan, distastefully: “Who wants your leftovers? I have my own.”
The trio had been in line for a while. Their cups of milk tea were almost finished by the time they got to their seats.
“What would you all like to eat?”
A soft, familiar voice came from above.
That voice seemed vaguely familiar.
Shangguan Xu looked up and saw a familiar face, “Ni Yang? Is that you?”
“Mr. Shangguan,” Ni Yang gave a soft smile.
Shangguan Xi and Elderly Madam Shangguan both looked at Ni Yang with awe in their eyes.
This young lady is too beautiful!
Elderly Madam Shangguan felt she was more lovely than Chang’e from the stories.
Shangguan Xi’s gaze swung from Shangguan Xu to Ni Yang and back. A faint smile played at the corners of her mouth.
There aren’t many people who can prompt her brother to initiate a greeting.
Shangguan Xu asked promptly, “Is this noodle restaurant yours?”
“Yes.” Ni Yang nodded.
No wonder Ni Yang could have savings close to six figures in the bank!
Shangguan Xu then ordered: “We’d like two bowls of Pickled Vegetable Noodles and one bowl of Beef Noodles, along with a plate of Kanto Stew.”
The Beef Noodles and Kanto Stew are both new items on the menu.
Ni Yang nodded, “Okay.”
Elderly Madam Shangguan looked at Ni Yang, then spoke gently: “Young lady, I would like my Pickled Vegetable Noodles to be spicy, and the Kanto Stew should be on the spicier side as well.”
This young lady is becoming more lovely the more I look at her, like a blooming flower.
Shangguan Xi immediately protested, “Granny, you can’t eat anything too spicy! Sister, don’t listen to my granny, we will take everything with normal flavors.”
Elderly Madam Shangguan immediately started to act the drama queen, “They won’t let me have sweets, now they won’t let me eat spicy foods. What’s the point of living as an old woman like me…?”
Ni Yang smiled and said: “Chilies are rich in vitamins A, B, C, E, K, and also carotene, folic acid, and so on. A moderate intake of chili can help the body expel toxins, speed up metabolism, increase sweating, adjust body functions, and can also have a detoxifying effect. Moreover, it can help to extend one’s life. Granny, don’t worry, I will adjust the level of chili for you according to your health condition.”
