Father Gu snorted, looking at his son more like looking at an incompetent boy with a nose that is not a nose and a face that is not a face.

"Then eat first, eat first."

Father Gu waited for Pei Qinghuan to nod before hitting Gu Jinchen on the head.

"Come on, sit down."

Pei Qinghuan led them to the dining table. She was a little nervous and pushed the chair for Father and Mother Gu.

"Mom and Dad, sit down. I only know a little bit of home-cooked food, so it's all home-cooked food. Don't dislike it."

Her voice was cautious and somewhat unconfident.

These are just home-cooked dishes.

It didn't matter at all. She was afraid that her father and mother were used to big fish and meat outside, and they would dislike her for being such a small family.

Unexpectedly, Mother Gu looked at her differently.

"Did you do all this?"

Pei Qinghuan nodded.

Gu's mother looked a little surprised, "It's rare for girls to cook nowadays. You can actually cook. It's really amazing."

Pei Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, "Really?"

Gu Cheng also sat down with a click of his tongue, "Of course, sister-in-law, you don't know how to fight. There are very few girls who are willing to cook nowadays, almost none. They are all cooked by us men. I thought my cousin would find someone to cook in this life." I have never had such a virtuous wife."

Pei Qinghuan's face turned red after being praised, "It's not that exaggerated. In our Pei family, all the girls cook."

Father Gu picked up his chopsticks and nodded, "It's delicious. This level is on my level."

Pei Qinghuan couldn't help but be surprised, "Ah, could it be..."

Gu Jinchen said helplessly from the side, "Yes, my father cooks in our family. He usually spoils my mother like a princess. My mother never does this."

Gu's mother glared at Gu Jinchen angrily, "What are you talking about? How can I cook with my delicate hands?"

Gu's mother also took a chopstick and said, "It's delicious. This vinegar cabbage is very chewy, and this sweet and sour fish is very authentic. Qing Huan, when are you going to learn to cook?"

Speaking of this, Pei Qinghuan smiled sheepishly.

"I started learning to cook when I was very young, probably when I was five years old."

What Pei Qinghuan didn't say was that when she was five years old, her family's financial situation was not good, and her parents were worried about their family's livelihood every day. Not only did she learn to cook, but Pei Qinghuan did all the housework at home.

From washing and mopping the floor to washing dishes and washing dishes, these are all tasks that Pei Qinghuan has to do alone.

It was obviously a trivial matter, but after Pei Qinghuan said it, a hint of disbelief appeared on Gu's mother's face.

"Five years old, my God, that's really awesome."

Gu Jinchen couldn't help but keep his eyes on Pei Qinghuan. She tucked her broken hair behind her ears and lowered her head while eating, looking a little peaceful.

For the first time, he felt that Pei Qinghuan might not have had a good life when she was a child. On such an occasion, it was really not appropriate to mention her sadness anymore.

Gu Jinchen's flash of sympathy prompted him to change the topic.

"Stop talking about this, why haven't my father-in-law and mother-in-law come yet?"

Pei Qinghuan looked at the time and looked a little embarrassed, "I'll make a call and ask."

She stepped aside and dialed the phone.

"Mom and Dad, why haven't you come here yet? Mother-in-law and the others are already here."

Pei's mother spoke slowly, "Why are you so anxious? We are meeting as in-laws, and we must give the other party a show of strength from the beginning."

"If we had gone earlier, the in-laws would have thought our daughter was easy to bully."

Pei Qinghuan looked down at the time, his face a little anxious, "Then you can't be so slow. It's almost half past eight. It would be rude not to be there."

Mother Pei asked Father Pei to put on his suit and tie, while humming perfunctorily, "I know, I know, you are such a real girl."

Pei Qinghuan hung up the phone and returned to the dining table with some embarrassment.

"My parents are already on their way here. It might be a little crowded, I'm sorry."

Mother Gu was very considerate at this time. She smiled and waved her hand.

"It's okay, sit down, we're not in a hurry."

Gu Jinchen raised his eyebrows and looked at Mother Gu's sudden good temper.

His mother is not so easy to kill. Why did she change her temper today?

Before Ming Ming came, he said that he must help him see the true face of his daughter-in-law. After he came, he tasted Qing Huan in one mouthful, very skillfully.

At the dining table, Gu's father skillfully peeled a shrimp for Gu's mother. Gu's mother directly took the shrimp and handed it to Pei Qinghuan's bowl, "Here, Qinghuan, eat the shrimp."

This was the first time that Pei Qinghuan felt such a family atmosphere. She felt warm in her heart, lowered her head and said, "Thank you, Mom."

Gu Jinchen's eyelids became more obvious.

Why did he feel that he was more like the picked-up child now, whose own mother kept talking to Pei Qinghuan.

Gu Cheng watched happily from the side as his cousin who was dominating the mall frowned, and he was even more happy watching the excitement.

Just then, the doorbell rang.

Pei Qinghuan immediately stood up and opened the door.

Gu Cheng stood up with a smile, "I'll come, I'll come. This must be the Pei family, the in-laws."

He opened the door and saw Lu Zhicheng standing at the door in a suit and tie.

Pei Anan was wearing a simple and clean cotton coat, holding Lu Zhicheng's arm.

"Sister, we are here."

Everyone also followed their gazes, and Gu Cheng immediately smiled.

For no other reason than because Lu Chi-cheng dressed up too exaggeratedly.

He even had his hair waxed, and he had a large gold watch inlaid with gold on each hand. There was a gold necklace hanging around his neck, and he had a smug and arrogant look on his face.

"Well, sister-in-law, An An and I are here to visit you. These are my uncle's family members."

He took off his leather shoes and put on slippers casually. As soon as he entered the door, he looked at the furnishings in the house and chatted.

"There seems to be nothing in this house. It's too empty and the decoration is a bit awkward. It's all outdated decoration. This kind of beam looks like it was a product of the last century."

Lu Zhicheng glanced at the furnishings and then glanced at Gu Cheng, "Sister-in-law, who is the brother-in-law?"

Before Pei Qinghuan could point out, Gu Jinchen had already walked forward calmly. He had a strong aura, coupled with the usual coercion in the mall, even if he didn't speak, his eyes were a bit bloody and majestic.

"Hello."

Lu Zhicheng looked at Gu Jinchen's wrist for the first time.

empty?

If he doesn't even have a watch, that means he can't afford a luxury watch. Among all the men working in shopping malls nowadays, there is no one who doesn't have a watch.

Presumably, this sister-in-law is not a white-collar worker. No wonder my sister-in-law was secretive before. Maybe her job income is not very good.

Lu Zhicheng calculated Gu Jinchen's social status in his mind and showed a somewhat contemptuous smile.
