In his eldest uncle's house, a lamp lit up the entire courtyard.
Uncle, Aunt, and Yuan Mingyue were busy working together.
The chimney on the roof of the kitchen kept emitting thick white smoke. The three figures shuttled between the kitchen and the living room, making the dishes on the big round wooden table more sumptuous every time.
Sichuan Cuisine had a pivotal position in the country, and the three people present were all good cooks.
Although he didn't open a restaurant again, his culinary skills didn't fall behind. Lu Cheng grew up eating Yuan Mingyue's Sichuan Cuisine, so his mouth was spoiled.
On the dining table, there were squirrel fish, twice-cooked pork, spicy chicken, boiled pork, Mapo tofu, and so on.
The dishes that were delicious in color and smell emitted a conspicuous color and fragrance that made one's fingers twitch.
When the last soup was served, Uncle Lu heaved a sigh of relief and asked Auntie Lu,"Is that enough?"
Auntie Lu frowned and thought for a moment." There's too much meat and vegetables. Why don't we add two more dishes?" Stir-fried vegetables with mushrooms?"
Uncle Lu nodded.”
"I know you guys are happy that Little Cheng is back, but it doesn't have to be so grand. How can you finish so many dishes?”
Hearing this, First Uncle and First Aunt looked at each other and then smiled knowingly.
Neither of them told Yuan Mingyue that Lu Cheng had brought his wife back. Otherwise, if Yuan Mingyue knew about it, she would definitely be very nervous.
The two elders also wanted to see how Yuan Mingyue would react when she saw Lu Cheng suddenly come back with his wife, so they kept it a secret and did not mention a word about Ji Yan.
" Alright, I'll go cook some more vegetables." Uncle Lu went back into the kitchen without saying anything.
"What can we hide from you?" Auntie Lu said cheerfully.”
Yuan Mingyue could tell from her sister's expression that there was something fishy going on, but she couldn't figure out what it was.
At this moment, there was a commotion outside the courtyard.
Auntie Lu's eyes lit up.”
Yuan Mingyue had not seen her son for a long time, so she quickly walked into the courtyard.
Just as she was about to call out to her son, her attention was attracted by the petite girl standing beside Lu Cheng.
"Son, this is…"
Yuan Mingyue could tell that the girl and her son seemed to be very close. A bold guess instantly formed in her mind.
Lu Cheng gave Ji Yan some courage with his eyes. Ji Yan was mentally prepared to face his mother-in-law on the way here, so he generously walked up to introduce himself.
"Hello, Auntie. My name is Ji Yan, Lu Cheng's wife.”
As he spoke, he took out the gift he had prepared in advance and handed it over with both hands.
"This is the gift I prepared for you. I hope you like it.”
"Ah, this…"
Although she had already made a bold guess in her mind, she was still a little surprised to hear such a beautiful and lovely girl say that she was her son's wife.
Why did his son, who had always been single, suddenly have a wife?
However, the surprise quickly overwhelmed the surprise.
Yuan Mingyue smiled from the bottom of her heart."" Good, good, good. My good daughter, it's fine that you're here. Why did you bring a gift…"
She wanted to go forward and hold Ji Yan's hand, but her hand stopped in mid-air.
Because she remembered that she had just finished cooking and her hands were covered in oil. The girl in front of her was so cute and fresh. She could tell at a glance that she was a city girl. She did not want to dirty Ji Yan's hands.
Ji Yan was smart enough to read Yuan Mingyue's mind. He took the initiative to hold her hand and handed the jade Buddha pendant to her.
Lu Cheng, who was at the side, was instantly unhappy. He said,"What are you talking about, Mom? This is a gift from your daughter-in-law. Why can't you accept it?”
Lu Donghai did not act like an elder at all.""That's right. Why are you being so polite to your daughter-in-law? She quickly packed her food. She was starving.”
Yuan Mingyue raised her head and glared at Lu Donghai. Her eyes were threatening to say," I'll teach you a lesson tonight."
"Auntie, please accept it. Lu Cheng and I chose this for you. It can protect you and keep you safe. Moreover, you're so beautiful and your skin is so good.”
Ji Yan replied with a smile. These words came from the bottom of her heart because Yuan Mingyue was indeed very good-looking. She was so good-looking that it was beyond her expectations.
Women liked to hear others praise their beauty, not to mention that these words were said by their daughter-in-law.
Yuan Mingyue couldn't help but laugh. The more she looked at the girl in front of her, the more she liked her. She quickly pulled her into the house.
"Yanyan must be hungry? Come in and have a seat…Little Cheng, this child, he really didn't tell us about this in advance. He gave me a fright and made me not prepare at all. I only made these dishes…Yanyan, what do you like to eat? Auntie will go to the kitchen to make it for you."
Ji Yan looked at the table full of food and waved his hand."There's no need, Auntie. There's already a lot. Moreover, these are all my favorite dishes.”
"Really?"
Yuan Mingyue asked again. Then, she shouted at the kitchen,"Big Brother, have you finished cooking? I'll go over and help you!"
"No need, no need. It's done.”
As he spoke, First Uncle came out with the freshly cooked vegetables. He looked at Ji Yan and said,"Yanyan, sit down. These are all made by your aunt, your mother-in-law, and me.”
" Yes, thank you, Uncle and Auntie. Thank you, Auntie." Ji Yan politely thanked them one by one before turning to look at Lu Cheng.
Only then did Lu Cheng walk forward and invite everyone to sit down.
