“Grandpa? When did you come back?” Shen Jun held all kinds of ingredients in his hands and looked at his grandfather in surprise.
Wen Nian was at a loss. She also understood that the old man in front of her was Old Mr. Shen, the one had the final say in the Shen family. But did he just mention the pig head that the production team had taken from her?
Seeing Wen Nian’s awkward expression, Shen Wei said seriously, “This is Niuniu’s girlfriend, right? Wen Nian? Hello, I’m his grandfather, Shen Wei. Just call me Grandpa like him.”
Wen Nian was flattered and wanted to laugh. She had not heard the nickname “Niuniu” for a long time. She wanted to go forward and shake hands, but she felt that it was inappropriate. She hurriedly bowed and called out softly, “Hello, Grandpa.”
“Alright, alright.” Shen Wei looked at the things in their hands and asked, “Did the two of you go shopping for the family?”
Zhao Jiao also looked at her son with interest. It was almost eight o’clock in the evening. Had he tricked Wen Nian into coming home? She felt that she was one step closer to becoming the youngest grandmother!
Afraid that Wen Nian would be embarrassed, Shen Jun quickly explained, “I didn’t get to eat the braised food last time. Wen Nian specially bought ingredients, but her dormitory and apartment couldn’t make so much food, so she came to our house to borrow the kitchen.”
“Oh!” The three elders said meaningfully together, while Wen Nian’s face remained red. She felt that it was really too hot that day.
Wen Nian didn’t say much. She greeted them one by one and went straight into the kitchen. Shen Jun wanted to help, but she pushed him out. She had experienced Shen Jun’s culinary skills before. She didn’t want anything to happen in the Shen family.
But Shen Jun didn’t leave the kitchen entrance. The open kitchen on the first floor was very big. He just sat at the door to see if Wen Nian needed him.
Moreover, there were three nonchalant people sitting beside him. From time to time, they would glance at the kitchen.
Wen Nian was very fast. She had learned how to cook from Zhou Mei since she was young. Although she had not cooked for a long time, the Shen family’s kitchen was huge and the kitchen utensils were very handy. She had already started preparing the braised food in more than an hour.
“This child has some skills.” Shen Wei sighed with emotion. In the past, when he heard that his grandson’s girlfriend was a celebrity, he thought that she was a delicate young lady. He did not expect that not only was this child beautiful, but she was also so good at cooking. This was rare among young people.
Moreover, Wen Nian cleaned up the kitchen while cooking. Even the Shen family’s nannies looked at her with approval. It was rare to see such a clean and quick little girl.
Zhao Jiao had already turned on the air conditioner in the kitchen. She was afraid that Wen Nian would be hot. She even patted Shen Jun from time to time. “Go help her out. Are you just going to let Wen Nian do it alone? Can’t you just carry the pot and pour water?”
Under Zhao Jiao’s constant urging, Shen Jun still went into the kitchen. However, just as he clumsily picked up the pork trotters and almost dropped them on the ground, Zhao Jiao grabbed his collar and pulled him out. “Don’t waste Wen Nian’s cooking. Don’t waste my braised pork trotters!”
Wen Nian made the braised chicken feet first, but thinking that it was already very late, she did not serve all of them at once, but everyone only got two.
Shen Mo finally got to eat the braised chicken feet that she had just cooked. He was about to cry. Zhao Jiao, on the other hand, looked impatient. “What kind of expression is that?”
Shen Mo said excitedly, “My daughter-in-law made braised chicken feet! This is not an ordinary chicken foot!”
Shen Jun looked at Wen Nian guiltily. Fortunately, she didn’t hear him. Otherwise, she would be embarrassed again.
When Wen Nian came out, the Shen family was already sitting in a row, almost clapping for her. She said in embarrassment, “The two of us didn’t buy pig heads today, but we bought pig ears. The braised pig ears are also delicious and can be served cold. I’ll buy more next time.”
Zhao Jiao hurriedly brought the cut fruits over. “Nian Nian, it’s been hard on you! Hurry up and eat some fruits. You don’t have to clean up the kitchen. Hurry up and rest.”
Then, she looked at the clock and said deliberately, “Aiya, it’s so late. The dormitory is closed, right? Then don’t leave today. Anyway, your school is very close to Shen Jun’s. Let him send you tomorrow. Why don’t you stay at my house today? Auntie has a lot of new pajamas and hasn’t worn them once. You can choose whatever you want!”
Looking at her excited and delighted gaze, Wen Nian really couldn’t handle it. Although she had been trying her best to return to the apartment, Zhao Jiao didn’t allow her. “It’s too late. It’s not safe. And think about it, Shen Jun is going to send you, right? How late will it be if he comes back again? It’s not safe for such a beautiful boy!”
Shen Jun was speechless at the side. In the end, under Zhao Jiao’s threatening and tempting gaze, he still nodded silently. “Yes, it’s not safe..”
