Chapter 425
Gu Tingchen never thought that someone would take action against him at home, especially since the other party was Wang Ma, who was honest and loyal and had been conscientious in their home for the past two years.
So when Wang Ma brought the pork rib and kelp soup, he didn't have any suspicion and scooped a bowl to drink first.
Ye Mu also tasted this soup and couldn't help but praise:
"Mm, today's soup is stewed well. Wang Ma, you've worked hard, sit down and eat together."
"No, Madam, I'm still stewing something in the pot, I have to watch the fire. You eat first, I'll go to the kitchen to watch the fire."
Wang Ma showed gratitude on her face, but very tactfully declined.
She wasn't lying either; there was indeed something simmering in the kitchen.
Seeing this, Ye Mu couldn't say anything more, nodded slightly, and continued to shift her attention to her son-in-law.
"Tingchen, you've worked hard. You've been busy with your father's funeral these days, you're really tired. Drink more soup to nourish your body."
"Mm, I know, Mom."
Gu Tingchen had the demeanor of a good son-in-law, making people feel inexplicably at ease.
Yes, any son-in-law inheriting his father-in-law's wealth would be very happy, right?
Even towards his wife and mother-in-law, he was exceptionally patient.
Ye Mei Qin looked at her husband's hypocritical appearance, her appetite was a bit bad, and after drinking two sips of soup, she didn't drink anymore.
Ye Mei Qin knew from a young age that relying on anyone was unreliable, only relying on herself.
Given the current unclear situation, since Gu Tingchen wanted the position of Chairman of the Trade Chamber of Commerce, let him go and explore the bottom line.
She had to think about a retreat during this time.
After Gu Tingchen finished lunch, held his daughter and teased her for a while, seeing that the time was about right, he greeted his wife and mother-in-law and prepared to return to his unit.
When he went out to change his shoes, he suddenly felt a bit dizzy.
It was only for a few seconds. He steadied his mind, guessing if he was too tired recently, so his body was a bit unwell.
Forget it, after he finished his father-in-law's funeral during this time, he would rest well for a few days and relax.
In the living room, Ye Mu also felt a bit dizzy, guessing that she was unwell recently, so she greeted her daughter and went back to her room to lie down.
Ye Mei Qin didn't take her mother's abnormality to heart. After she held her daughter and returned to her room to close the door, she opened the safe and rummaged through it, looking for something.
Outside the room, a figure stood quietly for a long time. After not hearing any unusual movement inside, she left...
The Miss didn't eat too much kelp and pork rib soup, the dosage ingested wasn't much.
The Madam ingested quite a bit of soup and has now fallen into a coma.
As for the Mister, perhaps because his constitution was relatively good, although the drug effect went to his head, it didn't break out directly.
It doesn't matter, just add a few more doses of powder.
She had plenty of time to hide herself and slowly infiltrate...
Although she felt very sorry for the Miss in her heart, for her son, for her faith, she could only do so...
On the other side, the flowers and plants at Wangfu Garden were exceptionally beautiful.
There were quite a few tourists, but very few could carry cameras with them.
It was the first time the two little ones had come to such an exquisite courtyard, and everything was novel.
Perhaps because of the shooting in the morning, Xiao Nuomi cooperated very well with her parents to pose in various ways, leaving behind cute images.
Of course, for the family portrait that no one in the family could be missing, they could only ask a few people who also brought cameras to communicate, and successfully took quite a few.
Walking and playing, shooting while walking, they played until about four o'clock in the afternoon before the children clamored that their legs were tired and their bellies were hungry.
"I'm tired too, a bit hungry. What are we eating tonight?"
Shen Man's energy was limited, forming a corresponding contrast with the children's high energy.
It seems the children inherited A-Ye's genes; their physical strength was quite good.
"Let's go to Quanjude. I heard the roast duck there is quite delicious. It's rare to bring you to the Capital once, it would be a pity not to taste it."
Jiang Ye kissed the children's cheeks and quickly determined what to eat for dinner.
Shen Man didn't refuse, because the last time she came to the Capital was two or three years ago. At that time, Brother Li, who was beside Grandpa, paid out of his own pocket to get a roast duck ticket and treated her to roast duck once.
She had always remembered this matter. It's just that she hadn't had a chance to see Brother Li in these years, but that didn't mean she had forgotten this matter. When she sent things to Grandpa, she also sent some seafood to Brother Li.
The family of four got back into the car and drove to Quanjude.
Quanjude's storefront wasn't as small as before. With the opening of policies, in terms of people's livelihood, some things were lifted from restrictions, and many people who dared to do business came out to open shops and become bosses alone.
So the shops on the street were varied, including clothing stores, appliance stores, small restaurants, etc.
Maybe in a few years, more shops would spring up like mushrooms, and real opening up would be fast.
After the two arrived, they explained their intention, but were told that Quanjude's roast duck was limited every day and had to be matched with roast duck tickets.
Shen Man's heart moved, and then she searched for things in her bag as cover, searching for roast duck tickets in the space quickly.
She really had this thing; it was stuffed to her by her master, saying that when she arrived in the Capital, she might be able to use it.
Look, it really came in handy.
After searching, she found six roast duck tickets and bought all the remaining roast ducks.
The person in charge asked how much they would eat here, and what to do with the rest?
"Slice one to eat here, and pack the rest in oil paper. We drove here, so we'll take it home to share with our family."
"Alright."
The roast duck shop staff, after getting an affirmative answer, nimbly took down the roast duck and sent it to the kitchen to ask the master to slice the duck.
The other five were packed in oil paper according to the guest's request.
Actually, the duck sliced on the spot, the taste and flavor were very good. If taken home, the taste would be slightly worse when cold.
But since the guest didn't mind, he had nothing to say.
One duck, paired with shredded pork with sweet bean sauce, thin pancakes, and other side dishes, the family of four ate, and except for Jiang Ye, everyone else was full.
Especially the sweet sauce, which satisfied the children's taste buds greatly.
They felt this was the most delicious duck leg they had ever eaten in their lives!
Shen Man quietly wrapped four duck meat rolls, stuffed them into a packing box, put them into her bag, and sent them into the space.
Tangyuan could also eat what they ate; good things should naturally be left for Tangyuan.
After eating, Jiang Ye took the packed roast duck, returned to the car, and let his wife put it into the space.
"If Tangyuan likes the rolls, if it wants to eat roast duck, just unpack one for it."
Jiang Ye looked at the time on his wristwatch. It wouldn't get dark all of a sudden, so he prepared to take his wife and children to a shopping mall to buy some food and drink.
"Mm, I know."
Shen Man nodded, feeling happy about A-Ye's attitude.
In her heart, Tangyuan was a very important family partner. A-Ye could love the house and its crow, thinking of Tangyuan in everything, which was quite good.
