“This beef tasted good. Where did you buy it?” The old man asked, he had already had several bites. He planned to have Lin Yulan buy some too.
Gu Ye proudly said, "You can't buy it anywhere else. My wife made it herself."
Chu Qiao added, "There are still some left in the fridge. Dad, you can take them back, and next time I will make more.”
The old man was even more satisfied now.
His youngest daughter-in-law knew how to handle things properly, "Alright, then I will take it home and eat it with alcohol.”
He was going to invite some old buddies over to show off, whose daughter-in-law could have this skill?
A large bowl of noodles, along with a large bowl of braised beef and cucumber, were all eaten up clean.
The old man leaned back, burped contentedly, while patting his full belly. His face flushed and sweaty from the spice. The spiciness level was satisfying.
This was the most fulfilling meal he had eaten in years. His mood had improved tremendously.
If it weren’t because he was afraid of embarrassment, he would have stayed for dinner as well.
“Dad, come over anytime you want noodles.” Chu Qiao said with a smile.
“Mm!”
The old man let out another burp, holding his hands behind his back and with his belly puffed out.
He was ready to head home, and he also hadn’t forgotten the dumplings.
“I will take the dumplings in your fridge for breakfast.”
Gu Ye rolled his eyes, this old man was taking food like there was no tomorrow, he was really shameless!
Chu Qiao packed all the rest of the dumplings and braised beef for the old man and asked him to take them home.
The old man rode his bike contentedly, burping along the way, because of the overeating.
Only then did Gu Ye finally recount how he'd dealt with Gu Jiefang's family, gesturing animatedly while Chu Qiao listened with delight.
In her previous life, Zhu Yuzhen used to constantly show off her pension every day, bragging that Chu Qiao didn’t earn a cent, and couldn’t even compare to an old woman like her.
Hmph, now that she was forced into early medical retirement, let’s see what she could brag about this time!
“I need to tell you something.”
Chu Qiao lowered her voice and whispered her doubts.
“Do you think Gu Jiefang is really your father’s child? He doesn’t look like your father, and his personality and temperament are even more dissimilar. He is so timid and weak. Oh right, don’t you have a second older brother too? What does he look like?”
Old Mr. Gu’s first wife had two sons. The eldest son was Gu Jiefang, and there was another named Gu Zhonghua.
But Chu Qiao had never seen Gu Zhonghua before.
Gu Zhonghua not only had a bad relationship with Gu Ye, but also didn’t have a close relationship with Gu Jiefang.
After leaving the military, he moved to the capital, and married a girl from the capital.
He rarely came back to Shanghai during Chinese New Year and holidays. It felt like he wasn’t a member of the Gu family at all.
Gu Ye lightly flicked his wife on the forehead, “Don’t ever say that in front of the old man. My second older brother doesn’t look like the old man either. I heard that he looks quite similar to the old man’s first wife, but Gu Jiefang doesn’t look like either of them.”
Not to mention that his wife had such doubts, even he also had the same doubts before. But he only dared to keep them to himself.
After all, the old man believed it completely, and Gu Jiefang’s mother had already passed away. Investigating it now would seem disrespectful towards the dead.
Chu Qiao’s imagination immediately started to run wild, remembering all the melodramatic romance novels she had read in her previous life.
No matter what she thought, she felt that the background of Gu Jiefang’s brothers was quite suspicious.
Just looking at Gu Ye, although he looked more like Lin Yulan, people could still tell at a glance that he was the biological son of the old man, as there was still a trace of the old man in Gu Ye.
As for Gu Jiefang? No matter how people looked at him, he didn’t look like the old man.
There was also Gu Jianshe, who bore no resemblance to the old man at all.
Chu Qiao didn’t mention it again.
After all, it was not a right topic to discuss, and it was just a suspicion.
Sons not resembling their fathers was common. Even the old man didn’t seem to care.
So she, as the daughter-in-law, shouldn’t be concerned about it either.
