Chapter 135: Unifying the Front with Mother-in-Law
The dinner table.
Mo Ru sat in the main seat, Mo Shaoyuan sat on his left, Mo Xingyue and Lan Chuxia sat on the same side, and opposite them were Lian Chengyu and Lu Jingxi.
Lian Chengyu's handsome eyebrows were slightly lowered, his fingers holding black bamboo chopsticks, and he concentrated on serving dishes to the little woman beside him.
Lu Jingxi saw the food on her plate piled up into a small mountain. She secretly pushed the man's leg under the table, but he held it without changing his expression. Her eyes widened instantly.
Mo Xingyue was almost pissed off by the way the two of them were flirting with each other, "Brother, let's cut the cake. Sister Chu Xia made it with great difficulty. It should be melted in a while."
Lian Chengyu looked at the girl beside him, "Want to eat?"
In an instant, everyone's eyes at the dinner table fell on Lu Jingxi. Some were scrutinizing, exploring, and dissatisfied.
Lu Jingxi smiled calmly, "Okay."
Lan Chuxia stood up and cut the cake for everyone. She handed the first piece to Lian Chengyu, "The birthday girl will take the first bite first.
The man took it without looking away, but put the first bite to Lu Jingxi's mouth, "If you like it, go home and let Aunt Cheng make it."
Even though four pairs of eyes on the table were staring at her, Lu Jingxi remained calm and accepted the man's care and love. She opened her mouth and took a bite. The milk was rich in flavor, soft and delicious. She commented very pertinently, "It's delicious, Miss Xinlan." Now, you are a guest, and I want you to be busy making cakes."
The smile on Lan Chuxia's face froze, and she was angry, but she could only reply calmly, "It doesn't matter."
Mo Xingyue was so angry when she saw Lu Jingxi acting like one of her own, "The first bite is for my brother!"
Lu Jingxi blinked, "Your brother doesn't like sweets, don't you know?"
Mo Xingyue wanted to say something else, but Mo Shaoyuan glanced at her displeasedly and pushed a bowl of dark soup over, "Good luck."
Mo Xingyue, "..."
She didn't dare to make her mother angry, otherwise her father would scold her...
The smile on Lan Chuxia's face became stiffer. When she sat back down in her seat, Lu Jingxi's comments about her cake were still in her mind, and she suddenly felt humiliated that she was a servant...
Mo Ru changed the topic at the right time and started chatting with Lian Chengyu.
Lu Jingxi concentrated on cooking and drank several bowls of dark soup.
The soup contains a lot of traditional Chinese medicine that can replenish qi and blood, and it tastes good. In addition, she has been exercising too much in the past two days, so she needs to replenish her body.
Mo Shaoyuan watched the girl drink one bowl after another, with a flash of surprise in his eyes.
Seeing that Lan Chuxia seldom moved her chopsticks, she asked Mo Xingyue to fill a bowl of soup and pass it over.
The woman behaved gracefully and took it with a smile, but she didn't move a word from the beginning to the end.
"Miss Lan, try this soup. It's good for girls." Mo Shaoyuan smiled lightly.
Lan Chuxia could only bite the bullet and take a sip. She only felt a strange smell mixed with it, but she still managed to praise, "There must be Chinese medicine in it. It tastes good."
Mo Xingyue curled her lips and bit into the broccoli with a look of helplessness on her face, "Mom, you can only drink this soup. Don't try to sell it to anyone. It will embarrass Sister Chu Xia too much."
Mo Shaoyuan looked speechless. Just when he was about to speak, Lu Jingxi across from him suddenly raised his head and said, "I think it tastes good. I drank several bowls."
Mo Shaoyuan's eyes lit up, "Is it really delicious?"
"Yeah!" Lu Jingxi nodded fiercely, and then filled another bowl for himself, "It contains astragalus, codonopsis, angelica, red dates, and barley at the bottom. I like it."
Mo Xingyue's nose almost turned to the sky, "Flattery! Don't you feel bad for saying something that goes against your will?"
Lu Jingxi looked at her disapprovingly and shook his head, "I also want to say that if no one of you drinks, I will take care of you."
The black porcelain pot was not big and there was not much soup left. Lu Jingxi really liked the taste. She moved the soup pot in front of her as if she were at home.
Mo Shaoyuan suppressed the raised corners of her mouth, "You like it so much?"
Lu Jingxi nodded, "It tastes good and healthy. Of course I like it. I'll ask the chef how to make it later and ask Aunt Cheng to make it for me when I get home."
Lian Chengyu chuckled lightly at this time, "Then you have to ask mom."
"Huh?" Lu Jingxi looked at him puzzled.
"This soup is mom's patent." There was a doting light in the man's deep eyes.
Lu Jingxi suddenly realized that Mo Shaoyuan had the nickname of 'little soup-making expert'.
Although Mo Shaoyuan's face did not change at this moment, the look in Lu Jingxi's eyes flashed with the word "satisfaction".
"If you like it, I will send you the recipe later." Mo Shaoyuan was in a good mood. Her craftsmanship was finally recognized, as if she had found an ally and comrade. After all, no one in the family liked her soup.
Thinking of this, she gave Lu Jingxi another piece of ribs.
Lu Jingxi happily took it and shouted sweetly, "Thank you, Mom!"
On the side, Lan Chuxia looked at the dark soup in the bowl in front of her and felt that she had missed [-] million!
Obviously she could win Mo Shaoyuan's love, but she suddenly missed him!
Mo Xingyue still had a nose, "It's not just that I want to please my mother-in-law..."
"Xingyue." Mo Ru suddenly spoke, his voice low.
Mo Xingyue's arrogance suddenly disappeared.
