Chapter 132 - 132 Personally Made
132 Personally Made
The group walked to the garden courtyard. The servants had already prepared cutlery and food. Everyone was serving the dishes in an orderly manner. Grandpa Fang called for everyone to take a seat. “Quick, come and sit down. You’re all family. Don’t be restrained.”
Yuan Xiao had been following Grandpa Fang. Seeing that he had invited everyone to take a seat, she could only sit beside Grandpa Fang.
“Xiao Xiao, do you have anything you don’t like to eat?” Grandpa Fang looked at Yuan Xiao kindly, his tone very gentle.
“Grandpa Fang, I don’t have anything that I don’t like to eat. I’m not picky.” Yuan Xiao looked at Fang Yao, who was sitting opposite her. She realized that Fang Yao was staring straight at her and felt that his gaze was a little too hot.
Yuan Xiao felt a little awkward. She coughed lightly and realized that Yue Ping was not present.
“Ah Ze, where’s Ping Ping?” Grandpa Fang asked Yue Ze, who was beside Fang Ming, when he realized that Yue Ping was not present.
“I didn’t see her either.” Yue Ze had been watching Fang Ming and Yuan Xiao play chess and did not notice Yue Ping. “Grandpa Fang, don’t worry. I’ll call her now.”
After saying that, Yue Ze took out his phone and was about to dial when he saw Yue Ping walking over with a servant carrying a plate.
“Ping Ping, where did you go?” Yue Ze did not know what she was planning to do again, but she seemed to be quite happy. Nothing bad must have happened.
“I’ve been helping in the kitchen just now.” Yue Ping took the servant’s tray and opened the lid of the exquisite small porcelain pot. She scooped a spoonful of milky white fish soup and placed it in a small bowl. She brought it to Grandpa Fang and said with a smile, “Grandpa Fang, my mother taught me to cook fish soup. It tastes delicious. Moreover, this fish soup is good for the spleen and stomach. It helps digestion and increases immunity. It’s very suitable for you to drink.”
“Ping Ping is so considerate.” Grandpa Fang smiled and took the spoon from Yue Ping. He scooped a spoonful of fish soup from the white porcelain bowl and drank it. “It’s indeed not bad. I didn’t expect Ping Ping to be so good at cooking even though she’s young.”
Yue Ping liked the feeling of being praised. She eagerly scooped fish soup for Fang Ming and Fang Yao.
Yue Ze looked at his extremely virtuous sister and muttered in his heart. He had lived with Yue Ping for almost 20 years, but he did not know that she had the ability to cook. Yue Ping had always been pampered and had not even entered the kitchen a few times.
Yue Ze felt that the delicious fish soup in front of him definitely had nothing to do with her. However, he did not expose Yue Ping. After all, she was his biological sister.
Fang Ming also took a sip of the fish soup and casually praised Yue Ping. From the corner of his eye, he saw Fang Yao sitting at the side with no intention of drinking the soup.
Fang Ming cleared his throat, deliberately raised his voice and said with a chuckle, “Ping Ping’s culinary skills are indeed very good. The fish that Xiaoxiao caught is also really fresh. Such good culinary skills also need to be matched with good ingredients so that we can all have such good food.”
“That’s right, the fish that Xiao Xiao caught is huge!” Meng Zhu looked at Grandpa Fang and deliberately exaggerated, “Grandpa, you didn’t see the scene at that time. If Fang Yao didn’t help pull her, Xiao Xiao would have been caught by the fish!”
The old man was amused by Meng Zhu’s words and the atmosphere at the dining table relaxed. Yue Ping sat back down angrily. She did not know why everyone’s gaze kept landing on Yuan Xiao.
Meng Zhu looked at Yue Ping, who was sitting beside her, and felt that she was really shameless. It was clearly Xiao Xiao who had caught the fish, but with just a few casual words from her, it had all become her credit.
If it wasn’t for Brother Fang Ming speaking up for her, Yuan Xiao would not have been given any credit. Because Meng Zhu was dissatisfied with Yue Ping, she did not give her a good look either.
Yuan Xiao could see that Meng Zhu was standing up for her, but she did not really care. Yue Ping was willing to perform, and Yuan Xiao had no objections. As long as she did not deliberately come and annoy her, Yuan Xiao would not make things difficult for her.
Fang Yao looked at the fish soup with a complicated expression. This fish soup was made by Yue Ping and served to him by her. Fang Yao could not accept it, but he had caught this fish with Yuan Xiao after all. Fang Yao still wanted to try it.
Fang Ming noticed Fang Yao’s troubled expression and could guess what he was thinking. Fang Ming smiled and lowered his body, whispering in Fang Yao’s ear, “Hurry up and drink it. This is a fish Xiao Xiao caught.”
