Chapter 164 Birthday Banquet

"Really?" Grandma Lu's eyes lit up when she heard that there was braised elbow.

Grandma Lu acted a little anxious, and couldn't help but want to go over to take a look. When she saw the plate of braised elbows, Grandma Lu's eyes were slightly red, and she was really moved.

That day when Meng Chuyuan asked her what she wanted to eat, she subconsciously said braised pork knuckles. At first, Grandma Lu didn't care about it, but Meng Chuyuan actually made her braised pork knuckles.

This dish has a special meaning to Grandma Lu. She followed Grandpa Lu when she was young. At that time, the living conditions were not so good, and she was relatively poor. It took a long time to save enough money to buy an elbow, and then gave it to her Make braised elbows.

Since the death of his wife, he can no longer find the familiar taste, so Grandma Lu has not eaten this dish for more than 20 years.

When chatting with Meng Chuyuan that day, Grandma Lu really didn't think about it that much. Now when she saw the plate of braised elbow in front of her, she actually recalled the past.

"Grandma, let me pinch some for you to taste." Lu Qianling took a pair of clean chopsticks, pried some elbow meat, and slowly passed it to grandma's mouth.

When Lu Qianling was about to bring the elbow meat to her lips, Grandma Lu opened her mouth and took the meat into her mouth. The skin was smooth and soft, and she didn't feel the pig hair that pricked her mouth, which affected the taste, and the soup completely penetrated into the meat , soft and tasty.

Lu Qianling looked at grandma expectantly, and asked softly, "How does it taste?"

When Grandma Lu ate this braised elbow, she almost forgot the taste of this dish because she hadn't eaten it for a long time. Now this taste has awakened her accumulated memories.

Although it was not close to the taste in her memory, it was close enough.

Meng Chuyuan has her own unique method. She pays attention to removing the fishy smell. She will add more condiments like tangerine peel, and the boiled elbow meat has a clear fragrance.

Grandma Lu was too excited to speak, she nodded after a while, "It's delicious."

While the two of them were chatting, Meng Chuyuan had already started cooking the last dish.

"It's time to eat." Meng Chuyuan put the fried snow peas into a plate, and washed the pot by the way.

Lu Qianling took grandma to the restaurant first, and then turned back to help serve the dishes.

Meng Chuyuan took the boiled yam pork ribs soup out of the pot and put it on the dining table conveniently.

Seeing that Lu Qianling didn't take grandma to wash her hands just now, after Meng Chuyuan put down the soup, she deliberately found a clean wet towel and came over.

"Grandma, let me wipe your hands."

The old man's actions were not so swift, and Meng Chuyuan was embarrassed to ask grandma to wash her hands just after sitting down.

"Okay." Grandma Lu cooperated very much, turned sideways to face Meng Chuyuan, and then stretched out her hand.

Meng Chuyuan bent down, took Grandma Lu's hand, put it on top of her palm, and wiped her hand carefully.

She had soaked that towel in warm water, so it wouldn't burn her hands when she wiped it, and it was very comfortable.

After a long time, Meng Chuyuan finally wiped the palms and backs of Grandma Lu's hands: "Okay."

Grandma Lu raised her eyes to look at her, and felt that the child Meng Chuyuan looked more and more pleasing to the eye, very pleasing.

Although he is young, he cooks well and treats his elders with caring and polite manners.

The thing that touched Grandma Lu the most was that Meng Chuyuan got up early to go to the market to buy vegetables and made braised elbows for her.

Mother Lu has a birthday party to attend in the evening, and Grandma Lu just happened to be going back this afternoon, so she simply stayed at home.

After lunch, Lu's mother sent a driver to drive Grandma Lu back, and Lu Qianling had to study by herself at night, so she followed her back to the city.

Meng Chuyuan was responsible for sending Grandma Lu to the car and fastening her seat belt.

While waiting for Lu Qianling, Grandma Lu dragged Meng Chuyuan to chat for a while in the car.

Lu Qianling took a long time to pack the textbooks, and followed her mother slowly.

"Mom, can you take me to the birthday party? I really don't want to go back to school so early."

Lu's mother told her that she would take Meng Chuyuan to a friend's birthday party in the evening. Lu Jinsen had been leaving early and returning late these days, and he didn't eat at home, so Lu Qianling was asked to leave now.

Lu Qianling tried to persuade her mother, hoping that she would agree to her request.

However, Lu's mother had already persuaded Meng Chuyuan to accompany her, so she did not soften her heart towards Lu Qianling, "I told you to stay in the school district room, but I didn't tell you to go back to school now. .”

"Then I'll leave tomorrow?" Lu Qianling raised her eyes, carefully observing Mother Lu's face.

"No!" Mother Lu glared at her angrily, and said, "Can you give me some credit? No matter how bad your second brother is, he is still a prestigious college student. Let's see what you... look like?"

Lu Qianling is well-behaved, and she looks very obedient in school uniform, but there is a big contrast between her appearance and personality.

"Then I want to stay at home for a while..." Lu Qianling tugged on her mother's sleeve and began to act like a spoiled child.

There was a trace of disgust in Lu's mother's eyes, she slapped her hand off, and said ruthlessly: "Stay a little longer? I think you want to play a little longer."

"..." Unable to make her mother let go, Lu Qianling could only obediently go back.

Seeing that Lu Qianling was about to get in the car, Meng Chuyuan stopped communicating with Grandma Lu and got down from the back seat.

Meng Chuyuan looked at Lu Qianling's reluctance, reached out and touched her head, and said, "Go to school well."

Lu Qianling complained in dissatisfaction: "What's so good about going to school..."

Meng Chuyuan narrowed his eyes, looked at her calmly, and said softly: "Then do you want to be the bottom of the other students? They won't appreciate you, and they might laugh at you behind your back."

"Don't look down on me so much, okay? My grades are not bad, and there are several behind me."

Lu Qianling hadn't passed the last exam yet, so naturally she didn't agree with what Meng Chuyuan said.

"You also said that there are only a few of them. Isn't that close to the bottom? There should be a grade ranking after each exam, right? Can you find your name?"

"...If you can't find it, don't look for it."

"Don't make excuses for not working hard."

Meng Chuyuan lowered his eyes, exchanged glances with her, and said, "You said the teacher was biased, and the other students didn't like you. Don't you want to compare them all? When you finish the exam, you don't have to. You try to find it, others can see it when they scan the list, how cool is it to beat magic with magic."

Lu Qianling was silent for a few seconds, and she unconsciously admired it: "You are right, but I can't refute it."

"You're not working hard for others." Meng Chuyuan stroked the broken hair on her forehead for her, paused in her eyes, and said lightly: "Learning is your goal now, don't forget to be nice to yourself and also be kind to yourself." Be tough on yourself."

She has also fallen, and she knows the feeling of being in a deep confusion, which is very suffocating and depressing.
