Chapter 1199: Chapter 1199: If I Had an Unfilial Grandson Like You, I’d Hit You Too

"Originally, I planned to show off my cooking skills this morning," Zhao Dingli said.

Since Zhao Dingli said that, Li Xiaoyun didn’t compete for the task and just sat waiting for Zhao Dingli to cook the porridge.

Anyway, the buns aren’t afraid of getting cold; just heat them in the microwave, and they’ll taste the same.

As the bone broth was reheated, the savory aroma grew stronger.

"Alright," Zhao Dingli said and returned with a large soup bowl.

But unlike before, the soup bowl now contained thick and soft white porridge.

A few minutes earlier, Li Xiaoyun had already reheated the buns in the microwave.

Zhao Dingli served a bowl to Li Xiaoyun: "Go ahead, taste it."

Li Xiaoyun took a sip, and the white porridge was soft and absorbed the rich bone broth.

One bite was particularly satisfying with the fresh taste of the bone broth.

Li Xiaoyun eagerly bit into a eggplant and meat-filled bun and quickly took another sip of porridge.

The flavored bun and bone broth porridge melted together.

The bone broth porridge carried the taste of the sauce.

This delightful combination made Li Xiaoyun close her eyes in enjoyment.

Seeing her reaction, Zhao Dingli happily said, "Looks like my first attempt at cooking porridge was quite a success."

Li Xiaoyun didn’t hesitate to praise, giving a thumbs up: "It was so successful, so delicious."

"I should have cooked like this earlier," Li Xiaoyun regretted.

"Without these buns and side dishes, I wouldn’t have an appetite. At first, my first sip was just the bone broth, which felt completely different. That step was essential too," Zhao Dingli said with a smile.

"Most importantly, if you had done it, how would I ever have a chance?" Zhao Dingli laughed.

"That’s true," Li Xiaoyun quickly let go of any regrets.

Zhao Dingli placed a thin cucumber strip into the porridge.

The cucumber strip floated on the white porridge.

The creamy white porridge held the vibrant green cucumber strips, making it look particularly appetizing.

Zhao Dingli gently moved the cucumber strip with the tip of his chopsticks, allowing the flavor to spread slightly in the white porridge.

He scooped up some of the flavored porridge, along with the cucumber strip, and put it in his mouth.

It was like bone broth seasoned with a bit of soy sauce, with a slightly spicy and sweet taste.

Adding some layers of flavor to the originally somewhat plain bone broth.

In the soft white porridge, he could savor the crispness of the cucumber strip.

Zhao Dingli’s appetite seemed a bit better than it was earlier.

At this moment, it was as if all the hangover discomforts had disappeared.

Breakfast was actually quite simple, but exceptionally comfortable.

"The porridge is really delicious," Li Xiaoyun said, satisfied, touching her slightly bulging tummy.

"I’ll research a few more recipes and make them for you this weekend," Zhao Dingli said with a smile.

Cooking delicious porridge takes effort.

Like today’s bone broth porridge, if Li Xiaoyun hadn’t prepared the broth in advance, it wouldn’t have tasted this way.

If you add them together, it takes a long time.

On weekdays, there’s simply not enough time.

Li Xiaoyun nodded with anticipation, and they checked the time and started to clean up and head to Shengyue.

Today, the old lady also invited Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei.

The elderly lady was very considerate of Li Xiaoyun, thinking having Ye Fei there would make Li Xiaoyun feel more at ease.

Additionally, with Ye Fei’s backing, Mr. and Mrs. Li could also feel more assured about their family.

But Zhao Guoxian somehow got wind of this and insisted on coming along.

He was acting like a kid nagging the adults to take him out to play, and if not, he’d throw a tantrum at home.

Initially, no matter how Zhao Guoxian acted up, the old lady wouldn’t agree.

Inviting Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei made sense.

Moreover, Mr. and Mrs. Li shouldn’t overthink.

Inviting more people from their side might make Li Xiaoyun’s parents feel overwhelmed.

The three old gents had to come as Zhao Dingli’s fathers, that was a given.

Without any female elders present, how do you discuss matters with Mrs. Li?

So the old lady had to be there, but joining her brother-in-law didn’t seem appropriate.

Hence, the old man naturally tagged along.

Other than that, the old lady didn’t invite Zhao Dinghuan or Zhao Dinglian and their spouses.

It’s fine with Mr. and Mrs. Zhao Dinglian, as they enjoy a leisurely life.

But Chi Jingsi’s temper, only those who know her well understand.

Those who don’t know her might find Chi Jingsi difficult to get along with at the first meeting.

If she ended up scaring Li Xiaoyun’s parents, thinking the in-laws were like hell, it would be quite unfair.

So the old lady planned to deceive... oh no, marry Li Xiaoyun into the Zhao Family first, then have Chi Jingsi appear.

Zhao Guoxian said he just wanted to observe and feel what it’s like for parents from both sides to meet, so when it’s his turn, he won’t be nervous.

The old lady thought what Zhao Guoxian said made sense.

Zhao Guoxian continued: "Grandma, my real grandma isn’t around anymore, so you’ll be the one to see my future wife and meet the in-laws. My dad and mom think of traveling all over the world and can’t care about me! So, you have to guide me!"

The old lady noticed, well, Zhao Guoxian is quite aware.

No need for her to urge him; he’s already started trying hard.

The old lady was very satisfied with Zhao Guoxian’s attitude, so she agreed to take him along.

Zhao Guoxian arrived early at the ancestral house to go with the two elder ones.

The elders sat in the back, and Zhao Guoxian took the passenger seat.

Since he was free anyway, Zhao Guoxian immediately posted in the "Eight Eight Sixty-Four" group: "My fourth uncle and aunt’s families are meeting today, and I have the privilege of attending. @Wei Zhiqian, Brother Qianzi, I’ll tell you about it later."

Wei Zhiqian: "Go to hell!"

It’s not even Zhao Guoxian’s family meeting; what’s he going to tell him?

This group of people has been driving him crazy these days.

Zhao Guoxian: "If you act like this, I’ll call Mrs. Wei."

Wei Zhiqian: "...No one stop me, I’m definitely going to beat this kid up today."

Zhao Gushen: "No one’s stopping you, go ahead."

Zhao Guoxian: "Bro???"

Wei Zhiqian: "..."

At least try to stop him!

"It’s not even you who found a girlfriend; parents from both sides are meeting. Why are you bragging about it?" Wei Zhiqian retorted angrily.

Zhao Guoxian: "I am attending with a desire to learn and anticipation for quickly breaking free from being single. Our old lady is very satisfied with my positive and proactive attitude. Unlike you, not only do you take no initiative to learn, you don’t even listen when someone wants to tell you. You’re not active or humble. No wonder Mrs. Wei often scolds you."

Zhao Guoxian: "If I had an unfilial grandson like you, I’d beat you too."
