Ruan Qi felt deeply helpless about her boyfriend's behavior of spending a lot of money to dig fish ponds. But I have to say that what Xi Jiu did really pleased Grandpa Ruan.
Regarding the relationship between Ruan Qi and Xi Jiu, the Ruan family has always had an ambiguous attitude.
Yang Liu accepted it calmly, Grandma Ruan agreed with both hands, and Ruan Fengmian refused ten thousand times but had no say.
Grandpa Ruan is the only one in the Ruan family who maintains a neutral attitude.
He neither supports nor objects, and seems to have little presence in the Ruan family.
But after these few days of calm observation, Xi Jiu keenly realized that this insignificant old man Ruan was the spiritual pillar that supported the entire Ruan family.
Grandpa Ruan seems to be smiling all day long, as if he has no other skills except farming. However, Grandma Ruan would come to him to vent her anger when she had troubles. Ruan Fengmian would come to him to talk to him when there was a conflict with Yang Liu. Even if Ruan Munan encountered any troubles at work, she would go to Grandpa Ruan to play a game of chess.
Grandpa Ruan is like the intimate old man of the Ruan family. He can solve everything and can overcome any obstacle.
When Xi Jiugang discovered this, he was really surprised. But soon, he thought of what Ruan Qi said a few days ago——
Grandpa Ruan was the only person who could chatter in front of Nie Beilou for more than ten years without being hacked to death by Nie Beilou.
Even Nie Beilou can do it, could Grandpa Ruan be an ordinary person?
Absolutely not.
Therefore, in order to get a status as soon as possible, Xi Jiu made a decisive decision to win over Grandpa Ruan.
The first step to win over is to dig a big fish pond in Yuyuan.
Facts have proved that this step was correct. Since the fish pond was completed in the morning, the old man has caught several buckets of fish throughout the day.
Grandpa Ruan's eyes narrowed with joy.
"This fish pond is well dug. It deserves to be an imperial city. It has good feng shui and the fish in the fish pond grow very fat. Xiao Xi is very thoughtful."
After saying that, he raised his hand and patted Xi Jiu's shoulder happily.
Xi Jiu immediately bent down and allowed the old man to move, with a respectful tone: "It's good that Grandpa Ruan is happy."
As he spoke, he glanced at a few fish in the bucket and calmly guided, "Grandpa Ruan, we caught so many fish today, we can make a full fish feast tonight."
Grandpa Ruan: "An all-fish feast?"
"Yes." Xi Jiu nodded slightly, with a low eyebrow, "Fish is good for the body. Xiaoqi has been busy with work recently, so it's just a good time to take a supplement."
These words directly spoke to Grandpa Ruan's heart.
Grandpa Ruan immediately clapped his hands and said, "You are right! Xiaoqi is so thin, she really needs to take some supplements. Let's have a whole fish feast tonight!"
As soon as he finished saying this, Xi Jiu took out his mobile phone.
"I'll ask Chef Chen from home to come over now. Xiao Qi likes his cooking the most."
"?" Grandpa Ruan was confused for a moment, "Why, why do you still call me a chef? Our family can just do it ourselves."
Just a few fish, he can braise and steam them.
Grandpa Ruan wanted to do it himself, but Xi Jiu dialed Chef Chen’s phone number first.
In the past few days, Xi Jiu ran to Yuyuan whenever he had nothing to do, trying to find every opportunity to be attentive. But Ruan Fengmian was very strict and allowed him to stay here during the day, but at six o'clock in the evening, he was invited out of Yuyuan on time, and he was not even allowed to have dinner.
Because of her father-in-law's strict defense, Xi Jiu has not touched his baby for four days since the last time he had meat on Ruan Qi's birthday.
Not only have they not touched each other, they have not even spoken to each other. Whenever he and Ruan Qi were alone, Ruan Fengmian would appear within a minute.
For Xi Jiu, who had just tasted meat, this was tantamount to ten forms of torture.
So, Boss Xi, who was gradually becoming perverted, dug a hole for Grandpa Ruan and tricked him into fishing for a day.
As for why we want to make an all-fish feast?
Because cooking an all-fish feast is time-consuming.
Why do you have to call Chef Chen?
Because Chef Chen is from the Xi family, Xi Jiu even contributed as a cook from the Xi family, so Ruan Fengmian couldn't deny him this dinner even out of politeness.
I bet on the personality and dignity of the person at the helm of the Xi family, even if I die tonight, Xi Jiu will also die on the dinner table of Ruan Qi's family.
He will never leave until eight or nine in the evening!
