Jiang Yu was in the kitchen preparing dinner for the day. She could vaguely hear their conversation in the living room.
Half an hour later, Jiang Yu poked her head out of the kitchen and said, “Get ready. It’s time to eat.”
Elder Mo replied, “Got it, Jiang Yu.”
Then, he locked the white curly-haired puppy into a cage at the side and said, “Ball, grandpa is going to eat.”
Mo Long also touched Ball’s head and said, “I’ll play with you in a while.”
Mo Jiang and Liu Hui were so shocked when they saw their father, who had always been known for his dignity, and their son, who had always been serious and unsmiling, treat a puppy in such a manner.
And this was not the only thing that shocked them.
After Jiang Yu brought the dishes to the table, elder Mo wanted to quickly take a bite to taste the freshness, but was stopped by Jiang Yu. He put his hands on his waist and said, “Grandpa, you just touched the ball. Hurry up and wash your hands.”
Therefore, Elder Mo could only obediently go to the kitchen to wash his hands.
Then, Jiang Yu looked meaningfully at Mo Long’s hands and said, “You touched it just now. I saw it.”
“…” Mo Long smiled helplessly and said, “Okay, got it.”
Mo Jiang and Liu Hui, who were shocked by what they saw next, saw Jiang Yu in an apron setting the dishes in the kitchen, the old man, who was usually stern and dignified, and the young man, who was always serious and unsmiling, were fighting over the sink.
There seemed to be a child-like quarrel between them. “Go away, brat. I was here first.”
“You’ve already washed for a minute.”
“What do you know? This is called meticulous!”
Mo Jiang found it hard to imagine that these words came from the mouths of the members of the Mo family. This was because in the past when they were at the Mo family, no matter how big or small the family gatherings were, no one had ever said such words.
After Jiang Yu was ready, she said to Mo Jiang and Liu Hui, “Uncle, aunty, come and eat. The dishes are all home-cooked. Don’t mind them.”
Elder Mo came out from the kitchen after washing his hands and said, “They still dare to mind? If they do, go and find Li Yue to cook for them! Don’t eat the dishes cooked by my granddaughter-in-law here!”
Mo Jiang’s temper was also very stubborn sometimes. Mo Long’s temper was probably just to follow him. Regarding Elder Mo’s words, Mo Jiang didn’t intend to go along with his thoughts and said, “Since no one is keeping us here, then we’ll just leave.”
Elder Mo didn’t even look at him and said, “If you want to leave, then leave quickly. No one is keeping you here.”
Jiang Yu hurriedly stopped Mo Jiang and Liu Hui and said in a low voice, “Uncle, you know that grandfather has always had this kind of temper. After all, father and son are one. Stay and have a meal together.”
Mo Jiang really didn’t have a good impression of Jiang Yu. Originally, he didn’t plan to give her face.
However, Jiang Yu’s words of “After all, father and son are one and the same” struck a chord in his heart, so he decided to stay for a meal before leaving.
Seeing that Mo Jiang had returned, Elder Mo said unhappily, “Why are you back? Didn’t you dislike me?”
Seeing that Mo Jiang’s expression had turned ugly again, Jiang Yu hurriedly filled Elder Mo with a bowl full of seaweed and egg soup. She handed it over and said, “Grandpa, you heard wrong. Uncle never said that he dislike you.”
“You don’t dislike me? Then why did you leave just now?” Elder Mo picked up the bowl of soup and took a big gulp. He smacked his lips in satisfaction and said, “Jiang Yu, your culinary skills have improved again.”
Jiang Yu smiled and said, “Grandfather, don’t praise me.”
“Don’t be humble. Improvement is improvement. Did I say something wrong?” Elder Mo said and then looked at Mo Jiang, he then said, “You must not be like some people who are unwilling to admit the truth even though it is right in front of their eyes. You must follow your own way of thinking.”
Of course, Mo Jiang knew that Elder Mo was referring to the fact that he was unwilling to accept Jiang Yu as his daughter-in-law.
However, there were many girls who were more outstanding than Jiang Yu. Any one of them was more qualified to marry Mo Long and stand by Mo Long’s side.
