Chapter 779: A dinner called warmth and happiness(1/2)
When the group returned to the urban area of Yuanzhou, it was already the evening with the sky full of glow. Fortunately, they returned to the community just before the evening rush hour and did not experience a serious traffic jam. After the car drove into the community, it parked directly in Ningqing.
In front of Jun's house.
Ning Qingyun's grandfather Ning Jingguang and grandmother Chu Mimei had come back a long time ago. They were sitting in the hall watching TV. When they heard the noise outside the door, the two old people helped each other and stood up.
Ning Jingguang's eyesight is not very good, and he only has 0.3 vision when wearing specially prepared glasses. It is still a bit inconvenient to walk long distances, but the two elderly people's health is much better than two years ago. Although Chu Mimei has to
I use crutches to walk, but at least I don't have to be in a wheelchair like before.
One of the two old people had bad eyesight, and the other had difficulty walking. However, they did not let the medical staff next to them help them, but walked slowly to the entrance by themselves.
As soon as Ning Qingyun opened the door of her house, she saw the kind smiles of her grandparents.
"Grandpa, grandma!" Ning Qingyun was surprised and happy, and hurriedly walked over to help her grandma. Qin Ke was also quick, and rushed forward to help Ning Jingguang.
"It's good to come back. I heard that you came back three days later than originally planned. Your grandpa and I are a little worried." Chu Mimei stroked Ning Qingyun's hair lovingly, and the endearment in her voice could not be concealed.
Qin Ke said sheepishly: "Qingjun and I didn't finish visiting several attractions in Paris. We thought we still had time, so we simply stayed for three more days. I didn't expect to make my grandparents worried. It's all my fault."
He didn't mention a word about the special plane, because once he did, he would have to mention the incident on the flight, which would only increase the worries of the two elderly people. On the way back, Ning Zongxun and Ji Xiuyu had already talked about it quietly.
Well, not many people knew about the two people's flight being in trouble, and they didn't tell the two old people. At this time, Qin Ke naturally found a suitable excuse.
Ning Jingguang nodded and said, "It's a good thing for young people to hang out more and gain experience."
Chu Mimei also smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. After all, you didn't spend your honeymoon well after getting married, so you should have a few more days of fun." When her eyes fell on her son Ning Zongxun and daughter-in-law Ji Xiuyu, who were changing shoes at the door.
, his attitude became a little stiff: "Didn't I say that I would personally prepare dinner for the girl and Qin Ke? The movements were slow. Xiao Yang had already put all the ingredients in the kitchen."
Obviously, Chu Mimei is still a little resentful that her son and daughter-in-law have not returned home for almost ten years.
It’s not that she doesn’t know that the two of them are doing major research related to the national economy and people’s livelihood, and she doesn’t blame them for not coming back to visit her or call her, but as long as she thinks about her granddaughter Qingjun growing up like an orphan without parents, others
They were both happy and happy with their parents. During Ning Qingyun's childhood and girlhood, she only had desk lamps, books and test papers to accompany her. She didn't even have anyone to act like a spoiled child to, so the old lady felt a surge of anger in her heart.
Especially when she remembered that when Qingjun was sick and had a fever as a child, she still called her parents, but her son and daughter-in-law didn't even call her to care about her, the old lady felt even more distressed and trembling with anger.
I usually tolerate this resentment when I can't see my son and daughter-in-law, but since my son and daughter-in-law came back yesterday, I can no longer control it. I keep my face tense towards the two of them all day long, and I don't look good at all.
Ning Jingguang was a little better, and he also gave his son a hard lesson last night: "It is true that a country must come first before a family. Our Ning family has inherited it for hundreds of years, and we are the children who have shed their lives and blood for the country."
You are not in the minority. You choose to serve the country. We don’t blame you, but can you have some awareness of being parents! If you don’t go home for ten years, will the institute not be able to operate for a day without you? When the girl is sick, you
No, you weren't there when she took the high school entrance exam, and I didn't see your presence during the college entrance exam. Do you have parents like you? How can we talk about patriotism when we don't even understand love in a small family?"
Ning Zongxun and Ji Xiuyu knew that they were in the wrong. The content of their research was top secret, and they had no way to reveal it to the elderly. They could only accept criticism honestly.
The Ning family has been passed down for hundreds of years and is actually quite old-fashioned in terms of respecting seniority and inferiority. Therefore, even if Ning Zongxun and his wife keep their words in the research institute, when they usually report to their superiors, even the big shots above them have to take their words seriously.
Listen, I don't dare to ignore him in the slightest, but the couple can only carefully accompany and coax the two elderly people in the past two days.
Of course, this is also because they are afraid of making the two elderly people angry. If the old people who are not in good health are hospitalized because of their anger, then they will really regret it.
Seeing Chu Mimei speaking at this time, Ji Xiuyu hurriedly said with an apologetic smile: "Mom, you and Dad sit down first, Qin Ke, girl, stay with your grandparents, Zong Xun and I will go cook."
In fact, she hired a nanny early after she and Ning Zongxun got married, and rarely cooked by herself. She ate in the canteen every day for the past ten years and basically never touched a spatula again. But yesterday, in order to make the two elderly people happy, she mentioned it.
I personally cooked dinner for my daughter. I just talked about it casually at first, but I didn’t expect that the old lady actually remembered it.
At this time, the old lady spoke. She had to go and cook. She hurriedly took off her coat, and hurriedly asked her husband to help her. At the same time, she quietly gave the nanny Aunt Yang a wink, indicating that she could come and help when she was free.
, to prevent the final dinner from being unpalatable.
"Xiao Yang, come here and help me rub my shoulders. My neck has been a little sore recently." Chu Mimei's sharp eyes saw this scene and called the nanny Aunt Yang directly.
Ji Xiuyu had no choice but to smile and went to work in the kitchen with her husband honestly.
Grandma snorted softly when she saw Ning Zongxun and his wife went to the kitchen.
Ning Qingyun said weakly: "Grandma, my parents are afraid..."
"Don't worry about them. They haven't been home for ten years. What's wrong with asking them to cook a meal? Don't they even know how to cook a meal for their children? I have taught your dad since he was a child that moral, intellectual, physical, artistic and physical development should be comprehensive.
It is necessary to accomplish both big things and trivial family matters. I want to see if this great scientist can cook!" Grandma pulled Ning Qingyun over as she spoke, looking her up and down, her voice suddenly changed.
become gentle:
This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Jun'er, let grandma see if she has lost weight. I heard that you and Qin Ke have solved the n-s equation in the past six months. This is certainly a good thing.
, but grandma feels sorry for you, don’t work too hard, life is still very long, don’t break your body.”
Ning Qingyun said hurriedly: "It's okay, this is our interest. We also pay attention to the balance between work and rest, and keep exercising every day. Look how good my health is now."
Qin Ke next to him smiled and said nothing. He could see that grandma was not only complaining about Ning Qingyun's injustice, but also trying to resolve the resentment in Ning Qingyun's heart. After all, after grandma "taught" Ning Zongxun and his wife, Ning Qing
Even if there was still some residual resentment in Jun's heart, it was resolved.
From now on, there will be less grudges and more intimacy between you and your parents.
Qin Ke sighed in his heart, no wonder some people say that having an elder in a family is like having a treasure. Not many middle-aged people can do such a careful way of resolving conflicts within the family.
Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun chatted with their grandparents for more than ten minutes, mainly talking about interesting things about going abroad. Then they found an excuse to go to the bathroom and came to the kitchen.
I saw Ning Zongxun and his wife both wearing aprons and busy preparing dinner. Ji Xiuyu tied up her hair and was carefully but clumsily cutting the meat. Next to her, Ning Zongxun was scraping fish scales. Both of them had hair and faces.
There are water drops, which makes it look a little embarrassed.
If you listen carefully, you can hear a conversation like this:
"Why did mom ask the nanny to buy fish? Zong Xun, can you get fish?"
"Do you think I know how to do it?"
"Hey... I have a headache. Zong Xun, did you bring your mobile phone? Why don't you check the recipe online right away?"
Qin Ke coughed slightly and walked into the kitchen.
Seeing Qin Ke appear, both of them were a little surprised. Ning Zongxun stopped the knife in his hand and asked: "Qin Ke, why don't you talk to your grandparents more?"
Qin Ke blinked and said with a smile: "I was rushed over by Qingjun to help. She said you still have bloodshot eyes. It's obvious that you haven't had a good rest for a long time. And I've been lazy all day, so why not come here and do some labor reform? She said it
I'm extremely ashamed, no, I came over right away. Parents, please don't drive me back, or Qingyun will take care of me."
Ji Xiuyu and Ning Zongxun knew Qin Ke was talking nonsense, but they felt comfortable listening to it. This guy suddenly put all the credit on Ning Qingyun, and this reason also made them unable to dissuade Qin Ke from helping.
Ji Xiuyu wiped the sweat from her forehead and said with a smile: "Okay, I have long heard Qingjun talk about your excellent cooking skills. This trip has really helped your father and me. We really can't handle this meal...
…”
Qin Ke looked embarrassed: "I only know some simple home-cooked dishes, Qingyun is exaggerating. Dad, Mom, I will help you."
What Qin Ke said was "hit first", but he actually acted as the main force. He first took the knife from Ning Zongxun, skillfully disemboweled the fish, scraped off the fish scales, and then asked: "Dad, what are you planning to do?"
Shall we make braised fish or steam it? Grandma and Qingjun may prefer something lighter."
"Then let's steam it." Ning Zongxun saw Qin Ke's quick movements and couldn't help but admired: "Qin Ke, have you often helped cook at home before?"
"That's right. Neither my mother nor my sister know how to cook. My father usually does the cooking. But my father used to be in the hardware business and had to go out to buy goods every week. I learned and practiced as I went along, and gradually became better at cooking.
I'm getting better at it." As he spoke, Qin Ke had already washed the pot, boiled water, and cut the ginger and green onions into shreds.
Ji Xiuyu couldn't help but praise: "Although I have never seen the girl cooking, I guess that when you two live together, you are the main cook. Looking at the girl's hands, it doesn't look like she often does housework.
It's such a blessing to meet you."
Qin Ke smiled and replied without thinking: "It's just a different division of labor. Qingyun sweeps the floor, mops the floor, cleans the clothes and cleans the room. She is very virtuous and diligent. She is dozens of times better than that lazy girl like my sister. He can find such a good girl as his wife."
That is my greatest blessing."
The three of them were chatting and cooking, and the atmosphere was very good. Qin Ke soon became the de facto main force. Ning Zongxun and his wife were really not good at this, so they gradually turned into a supporting role, helping wash the dishes.
The dishes are handed to the ingredients, and the seasonings are handed to them.
Seeing Qin Ke's familiar movements and the smell of food floating in the kitchen, Ning Zongxun and Ji Xiuyu exchanged glances, and both could see the satisfaction and appreciation in each other's eyes.
Who would have thought that Qin Ke, a super scholar, great mathematician, and great physicist who is now so popular on the Internet and is almost protected by the country as a national treasure, would be so good at housework in private? And not only is he good at it, but he is also willing to do it.
.
From Qin Ke's actions and the doting on Ning Qingyun in his tone, you can completely imagine how happy and careful Ning Qingyun was when the young couple lived together.
Ning Zongxun gave his wife a proud look, meaning: "Look, from the first time I saw Qin Ke, I felt that he was a very good boy and worthy of entrusting my girl to him."
Ji Xiuyu replied with a look of "You are the best", meaning: "Okay, I know you are better at judging people than me. I was petty at first, but now I admit that Qin Ke is indeed the most suitable boy for Yun'er, okay?
?”
The two couples have been together for decades, and it can be said that they have never been separated for a day. They have already connected with each other. This kind of "dialogue" can be completed with just the eyes.
During this period, the nanny Aunt Yang came to check on the situation. Outside the kitchen, she heard Ning Zong saying: "Hey, Qin Ke, it seems you don't have to cook too much, right?"
"It's okay, just treat it as a celebration for my parents coming home. Besides, Qingjun and I are a little tired of eating Western food every day in Paris, so we just want to cook a few more dishes for a change."
Aunt Yang, the nanny, couldn't help but smile. She secretly took a few photos with her mobile phone. She returned to the hall and whispered about what she saw in the kitchen. She showed the photos to Chu Mimei and joked: "Three
A great academician will prepare dinner for you, old lady, you are very lucky."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Chu Mimei snorted softly and pretended to be dissatisfied: "I said I wanted to cook dinner for my daughter myself, but in the end I still asked Qin Ke to help."
Ning Qingyun also looked at these photos, but her eyes became exceptionally soft. In fact, when she saw that Qin Ke hadn't come back for a long time, she guessed that he was going to help her parents.
A warm current surged in the girl's heart. This Qin Xiaoke was always so considerate and careful in everything he did...
Ning Qingyun gently shook her grandma: "Grandma..."
