"Aunt, I still can't agree to this."
"I ~ ~ I really want to find my mother. No matter if I can find her or not, I will discuss it with Mochuan."
"Can you give me three years?" Chen Xi bit his lips, and his gaze landed on Jiang's Mother's face.
There was a trace of guilt on his face.
She knew how much Jiang's Mother liked her, but she had never given up on the matter of finding her mother.
As long as there was a sliver of hope, she wouldn't give up.
Even if there was no news of her mother, she would do her best to search for her during these three years.
"Xier, I truly pity you."
"Don't worry, it's fine even if you don't call me Mommy for now. I've already treated you as my daughter in my heart." Jiang's Mother's eyes revealed a trace of gratification.
It was because of his determination and gratification towards Chen Xi who was looking for his mother.
It could be seen that Chen Xi was not a woman who only knew how to show off her skills.
This was Jiang's Mother's favorite point.
After finishing, Jiang's Mother helped Chen Xi to place the dishes on the table.
Jiang Mochuan had long ago brought Jiang Yuechen to the dining table to cook a child that was waiting to be fed.
"Old man, why aren't you coming to eat?" Jiang's Mother walked over to the sofa and called out to Jiang's Father.
"Hmph ~" Jiang's Father's emotions still stopped when Chen Xi returned home and did not greet him.
Although he was not satisfied with Chen Xi as his daughter-in-law, he did not feel good about how Chen Xi treated him.
"How can you be so childish all the time?"
"It's rare that my daughter-in-law made such a delicious meal today. No matter how unhappy you are, you should also come over to eat a bit." Jiang's Mother knew what she was angry about, but she didn't say it out loud.
However, Jiang's Mother guessed that Chen Xi should be able to guess where Jiang's Father's anger came from.
"Uncle, come and eat. You know how I treat you, and I know that you are not satisfied with me. That's why I don't want to be unhappy in front of you."
"Even if you are angry with me, don't use your body against me. I have no objections even if you continue to be angry after eating." After Chen Xi heard Jiang's Mother's words, he put down the chopsticks in his hands and walked to the front of Jiang's Father and said.
Hearing Chen Xi's words, the Jiang's Father thought for a moment, and thought about it: Why do you want to anger your body against someone you don't like?
"Xier finally had a solution. If he knew about this old man, he wouldn't be able to take the excitement." Jiang's Father left the sofa and returned to the dining table. Jiang's Mother followed behind Chen Xi and gave him a thumbs up in a low voice.
Chen Xi secretly laughed in his heart.
He definitely knew that the Jiang's Father was someone who couldn't be provoked the most, which was why Chen Xi purposely said these words to provoke the Jiang's Father.
"Xier, your cooking skills are so good, I'm really afraid that I will like to eat the food you make in the future."
"I never thought that a normal family meal could be even more delicious than a large restaurant." After a meal, Chen Xi basically did not have much left of all the dishes.
Jiang's Mother said, not wanting to finish it yet.
The food Chen Xi cooked was indeed delicious. Although Chen Xi was not able to cook any exquisite dishes, but Chen Xi was good at cooking.
Not only did Jiang's Mother eat a lot with Jiang Mochuan, even Jiang's Father, who usually only ate a bowl of rice, had an exception tonight and ate two big bowls of rice tonight.
For some reason, the rice that Chen Xi cooked was different from the rice that Nanny Wang usually cooked. For some reason, he kept having the feeling that there was a special faint fragrance coming from the rice that Chen Xi cooked.
No matter how they thought about it, they could not figure out what Chen Xi added into the rice.
Only Chen Xi himself knew that he had poured a few drops of scented oil inside.
This way, the rice will not be cooked too dry and sticky, will be clear.
"Auntie, if you want to eat, you can say so anytime you want."
"It's right next door, there's no problem even if you come over to eat every day." Hearing Jiang's Mother's praise, Chen Xi smiled humbly.
Chen Xi also realized that Jiang's Mother was a person who was really easy to get along with. Last night's awkward mood only lasted for a meal.
On the other hand, Jiang's Father, who was sitting on the main seat, disagreed. Although Jiang's Father felt that the food Chen Xi cooked was delicious, he had his own thoughts.
"Hmph ~ With how scheming you are, how can you be my Chen family's daughter-in-law?"
"I just want to use these to win over people's hearts. I might as well use them to do something practical." Jiang's Father snorted as he spoke.
Chen Xi did not understand the meaning behind Jiang's Father's words.
What does it actually mean?
Was it not practical for him to do so?
"You damn old man, you're the only one scolding me every day. Now that your son is here, I really have to talk to you in front of them. Where do you think you're going to find such a virtuous daughter-in-law who can share the pressure on your son?"
"Go out on the streets and find those famous girls. See if they can get used to the pampered life. Afterwards, your Chen family did not complain at all about your son, like Xier, and yet you still oppose it?"
"Do you think that the girl from a wealthy family in this society is a good girl? You're bringing it out with you to gain face? You don't even know what kind of woman your man needs right now, or rather, you don't even know what kind of woman your son needs to help him. "
"Since I've already said this much today, I will say it clearly, and do not say who I favor. Let me tell you this: your son needs a good girl like Xier, one who can understand people, be capable, and be a cook."
Do you think, when we were married, that any daughter of a rich family would be a good daughter? You've taken me on a tour for so many years, and you don't know that the mood has changed: which daughter of a rich family isn't playing in a bar every day?" You might not even be able to find a clean one out of a hundred. " When his mother heard that his father was still so against Chen Xi's rejecting tone, she couldn't hold back the rage in her heart.
The Jiang's Mother would not side with him just because the Jiang's Father was his own husband.
Jiang's Mother had already determined in his heart that Chen Xi, the daughter-in-law, would not be changed by anyone.
If Jiang's Father didn't like it, then at worst, he wouldn't need to come to Chen Xi's wedding.
Jiang's Father's face became darker and darker upon hearing Jiang's Mother's reprimand for not caring for his face. Helpless, he didn't dare to say anything fierce to Jiang's Mother, afraid that he would anger Jiang's Mother back home with a single harsh word.
Thus, the Jiang's Father sat on the main seat and did not speak.
Seeing that Jiang's Father did not leave, everyone stayed at the dining table and did not have the time to get up to leave.
This awkward atmosphere was broken by Jiang Mochuan first.
"If Father does not like Xier appearing before you in the future, this house should be left for Father and Mother to live in. I will bring Xier and myself to stay in it for a few days."
"I also don't want to see how unsatisfied I, Xier, am to be able to endure so many hardships every day even though I am clearly not bad."
"I'll bring Xier upstairs to rest first, and leave my parents first." Jiang Mochuan stood up and grabbed Chen Xi's hand. After saying a few words, she turned around and prepared to leave with Chen Xi.
