Chapter 623: Chapter 623 The Quarrel between Master and His Wife Chapter 623: Chapter 623 The Quarrel between Master and His Wife After dinner, Feng Shumin said while cleaning up, “Qiaoqiao, cut a slice of cake later and take it over to Yue Tao.”
Luo Qiao, hearing her master’s wife’s words, asked, “Master’s wife, hasn’t his mother caused any more trouble?”
Feng Shumin didn’t stop her movements as she replied, “It’s no use if she comes. Yue Tao has said he will continue to live with his grandma, and you don’t know how smart that child is.
He even told his mother that if she really cares about him, she should send living expenses every month. When that woman heard her son wouldn’t go with her and that she had to send living expenses, she stopped coming by.”
Luo Qiao got up, cut two slices of cake, and placed them on a plate, “Master’s wife, I’m going to take them over now.”
Feng Shumin nodded, “Go on.”
As soon as Luo Qiao stepped out of the kitchen, Lu Yichen came out from the living room, “Where are you going?”
Luo Qiao pointed next door, “Do you want to come with me?”
Lu Yichen quickly walked up to her. He was eager for others to know that Luo Qiao was his girlfriend, so how could he miss such an opportunity? Besides, he needed to cherish their time together since Luo Qiao would be going back to Ji City in a few days.
The two of them took the items next door, “Grandma Liu, Little Yue Tao, I’ve come to see you.”
Grandma Liu walked out from inside, “Qiaoqiao’s here, come in quickly, come in.”
Seeing the person following Luo Qiao, she asked, “Qiaoqiao, who is this gentleman?”
Luo Qiao replied with a smile, “Grandma Liu, this is my boyfriend Lu Yichen.”
Grandma Liu smiled, “The young man looks good, come in.”
Noticing what Luo Qiao was carrying, she asked, “What have you brought this time?”
Luo Qiao hurriedly said to preempt any refusal, “Grandma Liu, I made this myself, I brought two slices over for you two to try. It would also be a favor for you to give me some feedback.”
Luo Qiao looked towards Little Yue Tao inside the room, “Little Yue Tao, come here, this is made by your sister. Help her try it and see if there’s anything that needs improvement.”
Luo Qiao wasn’t just making things up—she indeed planned to pass the cake-making method on to Xiao Jingyu and the others. It would be good for the restaurant to have more specialties, and after all, she wouldn’t miss out on her share of the earnings.
Little Yue Tao politely said, “Hello sister, hello brother.”
Luo Qiao saw clean plates on the table, so she placed the two slices of cake onto separate plates, “Grandma Liu, you guys start eating. I’ll go back to help my master clean up, and I’ll come over again when I leave for your advice.”
Grandma Liu, who could see that the girl was worried she wouldn’t accept her gift, glanced at her grandson and said, “Alright.”
Back in the courtyard, Lu Yichen helped his master tidy up the yard, while Luo Qiao finished cleaning the kitchen with her master’s wife. The four of them went inside and started chatting again.
Luo Qiao took a sip of tea and commented, “Master, this black tea is good, isn’t it?”
Yang Jiancheng took a light sip, “The taste is mellow, sweet but light. The color of the tea is bright red, indeed quite good.”
Luo Qiao added, “Black tea is a fully fermented tea, mild in nature. Drinking black tea can warm the stomach and resist the cold in winter, and it can also enhance the body’s immune capacity.”
Upon hearing this, Feng Shumin laughed, “I never knew there was so much to say about drinking tea.”
Yang Jiancheng gently sipped his tea, “There’s a lot to learn about tea.”
Yang Jiancheng looked at Luo Qiao, “When are you going back to Ji City?”
Luo Qiao replied, “I’ll leave after the 15th—I still need to pack up when I get back.”
Yang Jiancheng, holding his teacup, started, “Review well when you get back and focus on your studies. Your master is waiting for you at Beijing Medical University.”
Feng Shumin showed her displeasure, “Studying medicine is exhausting. Why must she study medicine? Isn’t it good to apply for Beijing Foreign Studies University? She has a strong talent for language learning. You clearly know she has an exceptional gift in this area, yet you insist on her studying medicine.”
Yang Jiancheng looked at his wife and argued, “Does she still need to study those foreign languages now? Why not learn something valuable while she’s young? What’s wrong with studying medicine? She’ll be able to help more people in the future. Moreover, she clearly has an even greater talent for medicine.”
Luo Qiao, not wanting the two to argue over her, quickly intervened, “Master, Master’s wife, don’t argue. I’ll apply for medicine at Beijing Medical University and take a foreign language as an elective. Wouldn’t it be better to have a double degree? Or I could finish the medical studies here at Beijing Medical in three years or even less, and then take up a foreign language.”
