On the way back, when the two of them passed by the pedestrian bridge, they didn't see the Lolita girl.
It seems that he probably went home after listening to Jiang Muqing's words.
Jiang Muqing thought about what happened just now, and looked at Yu Jin beside her from time to time.
Yu Jin felt Jiang Muqing's vague eyes and said a little speechlessly: "Just say what you want to say, don't hold it back."
"I didn't expect you to be so hurt."
Jiang Muqing couldn't help laughing and said, "I guess my uncle is busy explaining my aunt's affairs to the other party right now, right? Your voice is quite loud, there's no way they won't hear you."
"I did it on purpose."
Yu Jin said: "He used to dig holes for me, but today he just took revenge a little bit."
"Will you do this to me in the future?"
"What, are you scared?"
Yu Jin smiled evilly and threatened: "Let's see if you dare to offend me casually in the future."
"I'm so scared, but..."
As Jiang Muqing spoke, she suddenly smiled sweetly and said, "If men are not bad, women will not love you. I just like your bad look."
"."Yu Jin.
Why do you always play your cards differently?
Returning to the community, he opened the door and walked into the small courtyard. The old man was no longer on the wicker chair.
"Grandma." Yu Jin and Jiang Muqing called into the room.
Soon the old man's voice came from the kitchen: "I'm here."
Yu Jin and Jiang Muqing put down their things and came to the kitchen door, where the old man was picking vegetables.
"Are you back from shopping?"
The old man looked up at the two young people and asked with a smile: "Is it fun? Did you buy anything?"
"Fun."
Jiang Muqing said happily: "Yu Jin took me to the delicious street and ate a lot of snacks. We also went to the mall and bought a dress and a pair of shoes."
"Oh, you must be tired from playing."
The old man said: "You guys sit down and rest for a while. I will call you when I finish the meal."
"Grandma, didn't you agree that I'll prepare the food?" Jiang Muqing walked in directly and was about to take over.
The old man refused and said, "That won't work. I also want to make a meal for my little Yu Jin and you. Why don't you just come and have a taste of my cooking?"
"But grandma..."
Before Jiang Muqing finished speaking, the old man blocked her mouth and said, "Mu Qing, do you think the food cooked by this old man is not delicious and you dislike it?"
"No no."
Jiang Muqing quickly shook her head and said, "I won't dislike it. Grandma's craftsmanship is definitely much better than mine."
"You won't know until you eat it whether it's good or not."
The old man smiled and waved his hand and said, "Just go out and have some fun. Don't disturb me while I'm cooking."
"Then grandma, I'm here to help you, is that okay?"
The old man looked at his grandson.
Yu Jin understood the old man's eyes and said to Jiang Muqing, "Let grandma do it. She is strong."
"Oh well."
Seeing that Yu Jin also started to speak, Jiang Muqing could only give up and follow Yu Jin to the living room.
The two turned on the TV and randomly found a station to play it on.
Jiang Muqing looked towards the kitchen and asked, "Do you really don't want me to help grandma?"
"Need not."
Yu Jin explained: "Grandma wants to be strong throughout her life, so just follow her. If you help her now, she will be unhappy. Because that will make her feel that she is useless and an old person who needs to be taken care of. "
"oh."
"Sometimes old people are like children."
Yu Jin sighed: "This is why she insists on staying in Kui County and refuses to move in with my parents."
"Then she lives here alone, won't she be lonely?"
"She said she was not alone. She ran her own small yard every day and basked in the sun. Her days were full and interesting, much better than in big cities."
After Yu Jin finished speaking, she paused: "But I think she is still lonely, because every time I call her on video, she is extremely happy and chats with me for a long time."
"The other issue is safety."
Jiang Muqing then worried: "Grandma is old and is alone at home. What if she gets sick or something happens?"
"You thought of it, how could my parents not think of it."
Yu Jin sighed: "But this is grandma's choice, and we can't defeat her.
I tried to persuade him once, but I didn’t persuade him, let alone anyone else.
Then her parents originally wanted to hire an aunt to take care of her, but they were rejected. "
"That's it?"
Yu Jin asked, "Otherwise, what else can we do? Forcibly take her to a big city? Who in this family has the courage?"
"." Jiang Muqing.
Yu Jin said: "So the only thing I can do is call her often and come back to see her and stay with her when I have time."
Jiang Muqing began to think deeply.
In her previous life, could it be that Yu Jin failed in the exam because of her grandma?
…
The old man is old, but his cooking skills are quick.
After a while, the meal will be ready.
"Come and eat quickly, there is only the last soup left."
In the kitchen, the old man shouted: "Eat first, don't be hungry."
"Okay, here we come."
Jiang Muqing came to the dining room.
The old man's dishes are not as rich as his own. They only have two simple meat dishes and one vegetable dish, which are very ordinary home-cooked dishes.
But often the more such a dish, the more it tests one's skill.
Seeing that the old man was still making soup in the kitchen, Jiang Muqing reached out to help him fill a bowl, put the chopsticks on it, then sat down and waited quietly.
The old man cooked the soup and brought it out, put it on the table, looked at Jiang Muqing who was waiting for him without moving, and asked in confusion: "You are eating, why are you standing there in a daze? Why, it's not your favorite dish?"
"Grandma, that's not the case."
Jiang Muqing explained with a smile: "My parents said that when eating, if there are elders around, we younger ones can't eat first before the elders use their chopsticks."
"You are such a good tutor, but here, you don't have to follow these rules."
The old man smiled and said: "Try it quickly and see how grandma is doing."
"Okay, grandma."
Jiang Muqing picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the first dish, then picked up the second dish and took a bite, and then the third dish.
After tasting all the dishes, she praised: "Wow, grandma, your cooking is much better than mine. If I could eat your cooking every day, I would definitely gain weight."
"You just have a sweet mouth."
Being praised by Jiang Muqing for being delicious, the old man felt happy. She said, "Mu Qing, you may not know that our Lao Yu family, starting with my mother-in-law, then me, and then Yu Jin's mother, seems to have found everyone. A daughter-in-law is good at cooking.
I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or if they deliberately only look for wives who can cook. "
"I guess it was intentional."
Jiang Muqing smiled and analyzed: "Because neither Uncle Yu nor Yu Jin seem to be very good at cooking. If we don't find a wife who can cook, we will probably have to eat takeout every day or go hungry."
"What you said seems to make sense."
The old man smiled and nodded, looked at his grandson, and said, "Little Yu Jin, so when you look for a wife in the future, you must find a girl with good cooking skills like Mu Qing. Do you understand?"
"Okay, I get it now."
