Ye Chen was stunned. He then remembered the legend of Old Yan's family. Yan Bugui was calculative all day long. Not only did he have to calculate how many pickles each person had when they were eating, but he also had to pay a meal ticket to his daughter-in-law, Yu Li's sister, when she came to eat at his house.
He had thought that this was a joke, but he did not expect it to be true.
Ye Chen quickly said," What meal ticket? As long as you like it, you can come and eat here every day. You don't need a meal ticket."”
"That's great, Ye Chen. You're such a good person." Yu Li said excitedly. Then I'll go back and tell my family that I'll be having dinner at your house tonight.”
Yu Li smiled and walked out. She ran to the front yard and said to Yan Jiecheng,""Yan Jiecheng, I won't be eating at home tonight.”
Yan Jiecheng was stunned." What? Did Yechen agree to let you have dinner at his house?"”
"That's right! You don't know that Jordan's house is full of stewed meat!”Yu Li gestured with her hand.
Yan Bugui, who was in the inner room, also came out and said,""This Ye Chen seems to be even dumber than Silly Zhu. If he continues to live like this, he won't even be able to get that 500 yuan a year!”
"Dad! You're really careful. You don't even eat meat once a month. I don't see you saving much money either!”
Hearing his daughter-in-law's words, Yan Bugui got angry and said,""You, Yan Jiecheng, look at your room! How dare you contradict your elders!"
"So I rebutted!" Yu Li continued,"Ye Chen not only stewed red braised pork, but he also stewed chicken soup and made fish. That taste!" Most importantly, it didn't require money or tickets!”
Yan Jiecheng wanted to say something to Yu Li. After all, no matter how bad Yan Bugui was, he was still his father. However, when he heard Yu Li say that Ye Chen's family had such a sumptuous meal, his eyes immediately lit up and said,"Yu Li, why don't I go and have a meal too?”
"Your Old Yan family is too calculative, isn't it?" Yu Li said unhappily. It's one thing for my sister to have to pay a meal ticket when she comes to our house for a meal. She only let me eat because of the rain. What if I bring you there again?”
Yan Jiecheng said embarrassedly,"If you don't want to go, then don't go. What are you anxious about?"”
Yu Li snorted and thought to herself, How did I end up marrying into such a family!
..........
"Qin Huairu! Come and see who went to Ye Chen's house.”
Qin Huairu looked at the meal she had prepared and was about to invite Ye Chen over. However, due to the academy's meeting, it was not appropriate for Qin Huairu to personally invite him over. After all, Ye Chen had offended the First Uncle, and Qin Huairu was still counting on the First Uncle to help her in the future. Coupled with the fragrance wafting from Ye Chen's room, Qin Huairu knew that she probably wouldn't have a chance tonight. Just as she was debating whether she should sneak over to Ye Chen's house to eat some meat to nourish herself, she heard Jia Zhangshi calling for her.
Hence, Qin Huairu walked over and looked in the direction that Jia Zhangshi was pointing at. She said,""Mom! Isn't that the daughter-in-law of the Third Master of the Northern Courtyard, Yu Li? Why would she go to Ye Chen's house? Ye Chen had made Third Uncle so angry at the assembly today!”
"Who says so! There must be something fishy going on." Jia Zhang-shi's face twisted together as she said,""That Yu Li has a seductive face and walks with a twist. One look and you can tell that she's not a decent person! Perhaps, Yan Bugui had sent them to extort money for Ye Chen's medical fees!”
The more Jia Zhang-shi thought about it, the more likely it was. She said to Qin Huairu,"Huai Ru, it seems that for the sake of our Jia family, you still have to sacrifice a little tonight!”As she spoke, Jia Zhangshi moved closer to Qin Huairu's ear and began to speak.
After a while, Qin Huairu hurriedly shook her head and said,""Mom, I'm a girl from a good family. Although I can't say how much fortune I've enjoyed by marrying into your Jia family, I still want to save my face. If you ask me to do this, wouldn't it be..."
"Hey! Who hasn't experienced it before? It's just a matter of one or two minutes. Endure it and it'll pass!”Jia Zhangshi continued to coax Qin Huiru."If it doesn't work, just treat it as if you were stabbed by a needle!”
"But…"
"What's there to be but about? My son, Dongxu, will definitely not blame you if he finds out. After all, you're doing this for the entire Jia family, and also to let his mother and child live a better life!”Jia Zhangshi continued to bluff.
Qin Huairu looked at her mother-in-law's face that was practically like a pimp's and said in disgust,""Then I'll listen to you this once. However, if you want the money back, I can only give you 300 yuan. I'll return the rest to Silly Zhu and the others to replenish their nutrition!”
"No, at least 350!"
"Alright!" Qin Huairu said straightforwardly," If that's the case, then I'll have to trouble you to go by yourself. If you get it back, the five hundred yuan will be yours. I don't want a single cent."”
Jia Zhangshi said angrily,"You…" Do you think I don't want to? If I were ten years younger, I wouldn't use you!”
"Then you should think of a way to become ten years younger!”Qin Huairu said disdainfully.
Jia Zhangshi thought that Ye Chen was like a golden boy now, and everyone wanted to take a bite of him. Jia Zhangshi, who was afraid of a long delay, could only say,"Alright! Three hundred it is!"
..........
At this moment, Ye Chen's house was in a happy mood. Because of Yu Li's participation, He Yushui and Yu Haitang became restrained and began to eat happily. Yu Li, on the other hand, was full of praise for Ye Chen's culinary skills as she ate."Yechen, I didn't expect the food you cooked to not only smell good, but it also tastes even better!”
Ye Chen smiled and said," It's just so-so. When I stayed here before, I liked to make something myself sometimes. As time passed, the food I made became so-so."”
Yu Haitang nodded." Yechen, how nice would it be if I had a brother like you? Then I could eat such delicious meat dishes every day." Unfortunately, I only have one sister, and she married into that stingy family of Old Yan's. I have to pay a meal ticket to eat at her house. It's so embarrassing.”
Ye Chen smiled." Just treat me as your brother. If you want to eat meat in the future, come here."”
"Really?" Yu Haitang's eyes lit up when she heard that. Her face was flushed with excitement."Ye Chen, are you joking? I can't take a joke and take it seriously.”
"Of course not." Ye Chen said casually. He couldn't finish it by himself anyway.
Seeing that they were talking and laughing, He Yushui pouted and said,"Brother Ye Chen, I want to come to your house for dinner every day too. Don't forget, you're…" As he spoke, He Yushui looked at Ye Chen with a bitter expression.
As someone who had experienced it before, Yu Li could tell that He Yushui was interested in Ye Chen. She said,"Yushui, your brother Shazhu's cooking is great too, and his salary is high. You can let him cook!”
"It's different! Brother Ye Chen's cooking is even better. Besides, my brother's not that rich!”
Ye Chen looked at He Yushui and smiled." Sure, it's lively with more people. You're close to my house, Yushui. If you want to eat, just come!"”
"Alright! Thank you, Brother Yechen."
Yu Haitang also smiled." Rainwater, I'll sleep with you after work. We'll be companions then!"”
"Alright then! But you have to pay me rent!" Although He Yushui was not happy, she thought that Yu Haitang could stay at her sister's house even if she didn't want to stay with her. Moreover, she could keep an eye on her if she stayed with her.
Yu Haitang looked at He Yushui in disbelief and said,""Alright! Then it's a deal!"
At this moment, Yu Li, who didn't know what to say, raised her head and looked at the three of them. She mustered her courage and suddenly said,"Yechen, since you let Haitang acknowledge you as her brother, does that mean I'm also your sister?”
Ye Chen looked at Yu Li who was staring at him and said,"Alright! From today onwards, Yu Li, you're my godsister. But I'm going to say this first. I don't acknowledge that stingy Old Yan family!”After saying that, Ye Chen secretly lifted Yu Li from under the table.
Yu Li was stunned by this sudden touch and looked at Ye Chen in surprise.
Ye Chen saw that Yu Li's reaction was not too intense, so he touched her ankle again and said,"F * ck ~ Sister, what do you think!"
