Seeing Yu Yongâs troubled expression, Chen Lian expected better from someone. âTo think that youâre a man! How can you listen to a woman like her? As the head of the family, canât you be more unyielding?â
Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, the door opened and Pang Jiao came out of the house in her pajamas.
Pang Jiao had heard her badmouthing everyone. He XiâS expression was very ugly as she hurriedly explained, âUm⦠Sister-in-law, donât misunderstand. Mom was just having a simple chat. I didnât mean anything elseâ¦â
Unexpectedly, Pang JiaoâS eyes were red. âSister-in-law, donât explain.â
After she finished speaking, she knelt in front of Chen Lian. âMom, if you want to see the child, bring him back. I beg you not to chase me away!â
Pang Jiaoâs eyes were red as she cried. Chen Lian was dumbfounded.
What was this little b*tch Pang Jiao doing? Wasnât she very powerful in the past? Why was Yong acting pitiful again when he came back?!
The more Chen Lian thought about it, the angrier she became. âDo I need you to tell me that I brought my grandson back? Youâre just an old hen who canât lay eggs. Do you still want to control our entire family?â
âIâm sorry⦠ItâS my fault.â Pang Jiao gritted her teeth and apologized softly.
What was wrong with her today? Chen Lian was a little stunned. âStop pretending in front of me! Whereâs your usual power? Why did you stop pretending the moment Yong came back?â
With that, Chen Lian slapped Pang Jiao.
Pang Jiao did not retaliate. Instead, she said with red eyes, âMom, what are you talking about? Why donât I understand? I know youâve been taking your anger out on me because of the child, but you canât blame me for that matter after all, right?â
âShut up!â Chen Lian said and wanted to hit Pang Jiao.
However, Yu Yong stopped her this time. âEnough! Do you usually treat Jiaojiao like this at home? To think that I thought you had changed. I didnât expect you to still be as unreasonable as before!â
After Yu Yong finished speaking, he pulled Pang Jiao into the house. Only then did Chen Lian realize that she had been tricked by Pang Jiao!
She shouted at Yu Yong at the top of her voice, âYong! Itâs not like that! Mom didnât do anything to abuse Jiaojiao!â
However, this time, no matter how she shouted, Yu Yong did not turn around to say a word to Chen Lian.
Yu Wen was even angrier when he saw this. âHe really forgot about his mother when he had a wife! LetâS go! The further the better!â
âWhat are you talking about!â He Xiâs expression was displeased. She went forward and said, âMom, donât lower yourself to Yongâs level.â
Chen Lian was still angry. âItâs good that she left! Itâs peaceful! Itâs best if she doesnât come back for the rest of her life!â
When Yu Wen heard this, he immediately went forward. âMom, are we still bringing Yu Xuan back?â
Chen Lian: âYes! Why not? Youâll go tonight! You must bring my eldest grandson back!â
Song Yao still didnât know that Chen Lian was thinking about snatching Baby Xuan back. After making the braised meat rice, she brought it to Hu Lin.
The braised meat was fragrant but not greasy. Coupled with the fragrant rice, Hu Lin ate two big bowls in one go and did not forget to praise Song Yaoâs amazing culinary skills.
âIâve eaten a lot of delicious food, but compared to your braised meat rice, I feel that itâs a little lacking. Perhaps itâS because their ingredients are not good, or perhaps itâS because it lacks some heat.â
Song Yao was a little embarrassed. âItâs not that exaggerated. Iâm from the countryside. My culinary skills are really not enough to compare to the people in the city.â
âHow could that be?â Hu Lin said as he picked up a braised egg. âItâS no exaggeration to say that your braised meat rice can be used as a chef in a big restaurant in the city! What future is there in staying in a small place?â
After saying that, he ate another piece of braised meat made by Gu Li. âAnd this braised meat, it looks, smells, and tastes good! Iâve thought it through! When my scenic area is developed, you guys can sell braised meat rice at the window. One serving will be priced at five yuan!â
Five yuan! Gu Li was dumbfounded.
Nowadays, even a meal at a state-run restaurant would only cost four yuan. Five yuan could be said to be an astronomical Drice in this era!
Gu Li said, âSo whatâs a scenic spot? Braised meat rice is so expensive. What if no one buys it?â
âThe scenic area is an entertainment venue for tourists who come to the city to play. Itâs very popular in the city now, and the prices of the things in the scenic area are not low. Five yuan for braised pork rice is a little expensive. How about three yuan?
Gu Li frowned, as if she still did not understand.
Hu Lin continued, âDidnât I buy the back mountain? I want to transform this place into a paradise so that the city people can come here and experience the enthusiasm of the countryside..â
