Chapter 233: Chapter 225: Qiao Jing Caught in the Middle

Xu Hongzu snorted coldly and turned his head away without speaking.

Inside the kitchen.

“You’re back?” Qiao Jing was stir-frying fish in the pan and was somewhat surprised to see the person arriving.

“Yeah, what kind of fish are you making?” Zhan Qipei glanced at the other vegetables in the bag and took the initiative to start washing them.

Qiao Jing turned her head back to focus on the fish in the pan, “Pickled vegetable fish, Grandpa Xu loves it.”

Zhan Qipei remembered Xu Hongzu and Xu Moqian, the grandfather-grandson duo, and his expression darkened slightly, but he couldn’t help but assist Qiao Jing in chopping the pickled vegetables.

It was hard to pinpoint when exactly, but Zhan Qipei and Qiao Jing had developed a certain tacit understanding when cooking together, and with a man helping, the cooking speed increased a lot.

Five dishes and a soup were served on the table, and the aroma enticed the three people in the living room to quickly take their seats by the dining table.

The seating of the five people was quite clever, with Zhan Qipei sitting on the left side of Qiao Jing, and Xu Moqian on her right.

The two elderly men sat beside their respective grandsons, as if they were divided into factions.

“This is what you call, ‘a couple shares the load, and work becomes easy,'” Zhan Yuanshan happily said, stroking his beard and glancing at Xu Hongzu.

“You brute, modifying sentences at will?” Xu Hongzu grumbled angrily.

Zhan Yuanshan and Xu Hongzu were about to start arguing, but Qiao Jing interrupted them, “Let’s eat.”

Zhan Qipei stood up and personally served Qiao Jing a bowl of soup, placing it in front of her.

“Thank you,” Qiao Jing expressed her thanks.

Seeing the couple acting so harmoniously, Zhan Yuanshan was very pleased; his grandson was indeed on the right track.

Xu Moqian, not wanting to be outdone, noticed that Qiao Jing had finished the rice on her plate and immediately took the bowl from her hands, “Sister Jing, let me serve you some rice.”
