The first assistant of the poor family

Chapter 266
Xie Shen was still a little nervous about meeting his mother-in-law.

He really wasn't experienced in this area, and if he said something wrong when he saw his mother-in-law and her old man, wouldn't it be a waste of success.

Speaking of which, Xu Guan's first wife, the Han family, was not from Shufu, but from Fenghua County, Ningbo Prefecture.There was quite a story about her encounter with Xu Guan, but Xie Shen was not good at gossip, so naturally he didn't bother to pay attention to these details.

Seeing the future mother-in-law is an extremely important matter, so Xie Shen had to put in more thought if he didn't want to mess it up.

As the saying goes, to conquer a man is to conquer his stomach first, especially if it is a woman.

Xie Shen is also a culinary expert at any rate, so it's not a problem if he wants to cook some special dishes.

However, his current status is not as good as before. He is a scholar of the prestigious Hanlin Academy. If he plunges headlong into the Eastern Kitchen, he may cause people to gossip. It is better to tell the chef of Xu's private cooking secrets and guide him on the sidelines.

Of course, cooking looks easier than it is.

It takes time for a cook to become familiar with the production process of a dish that he has never touched before, so Xie Shen started special training for the chef of the Xu family after learning that his future mother-in-law, Mrs. Han, was coming to the capital.

Although the process was a bit difficult, fortunately, the chef has mastered the essentials of frying private dishes.

Xie Shen finally taught the cook a few special dishes before the future father-in-law and mother-in-law returned to Beijing.

Xu Guan was always low-key, but this time he returned to Beijing with ease.

When Master Xu's family of three returned home, Xie Shen couldn't help but feel a little sad when he saw that there were only a few long-term attendants around.

Let Mr. Xu's family into the mansion for a few gossips, Xie Shen wisely exited the main room.

The distance from Songjiang Mansion to the capital is not close, Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xu are old and need a good rest.

As for Miss Xu, she obviously doesn't intend to take a rest, when she went to Songjiang Mansion to serve her father, what she cared about most was Xie Shen.

So this time when she got back to the center of the mansion, all her thoughts were on Xie Shen, and as soon as Xie Shen left the house, she hurriedly followed him.

"Little enemy, I don't even say hello when I come back."

A trace of resentment flashed in Xu Qianqian's eyes, but Xie Shen's words were quite irritating to Xie Shen's ears.

"Well, Xiaosheng was rude for a while, please forgive me, Miss Xu."

Xie Shen's answer amused Xu Qianqian thoroughly, and he punched his fists and laughed and cursed: "You're so glib, why did I fall in love with you in the first place?"

In terms of flirting skill, Xie Shen thinks that it is still above the standard.

But he was also a little curious about why Miss Xu was so gentle when she first met him.This is far from the rumored image of Miss Xu's arrogance and indifference.

In the past, Xie Shen would never have asked such a question, but now that Xie Shen is already familiar with Miss Xu, asking would not ruin their relationship.

"I'm also puzzled by this. I've heard others say that Qianqian is cold and arrogant."

Xu Qianqian said with a smile: "My father urged me to get married all day long, but the matchmaker introduced me to dudes. If I don't pretend to be cold and arrogant to scare them off, why should I still greet them with a smile on my face?"

Xie Shen was stunned.

Pack?It turned out that Ms. Xu's cold and arrogant temper was just pretending.

No wonder Miss Xu acted "uncharacteristically" when she first met him that day, acting so gentle and charming.
Of course, in Xie Shen's view, this is mainly due to the fact that his personal charm value is too high, and Miss Xu can't stand it.

"Why, you don't believe it?"

Xu Qianqian glanced at Xie Shen and said, "Believe it or not, I'm doing this for you."

"Believe it, of course I believe it."

Xie Shen hurriedly laughed and said: "The journey was tiring, do you want Xiaosheng to give Miss Xu a shoulder squeeze to relieve the fatigue."

"Slick tongue, you kid, don't you want to take advantage of it?"

Xie Shen heard the words and said seriously: "A gentleman is magnanimous, and a villain is a good man. How can Ms. Xu think so, Xiaosheng's heart aches."

Xie Shen gestured to cover his chest, looking sad.

Miss Xu was amused by this, covered her mouth and smiled, "I really don't know what I like about you."

Xie Shen shrugged and said, "This is called charisma."

"Charisma?"

Miss Xu was very uncomfortable with the novel words that suddenly came out of Xie Shen's mouth, and asked in amazement: "What is charisma?"

"Uh." Xie Shen scratched his head and said, "It's character."

Miss Xu hit Xie Shen with another punch, but there was a muffled thumping sound when it hit Xie Shen's chest.

Compared with a few years ago, Xie Shen has developed more maturely.Although it is not enough to have six-pack chest muscles, it still has a lot of muscles.

Xie Shen took advantage of the situation and hugged Xu Qianqian into his arms, and said in a low voice, "How is Xiaosheng's character?"

Xu Qianqian panicked and said, "What are you doing, if your mother sees it."

"I can't take it anymore, I can't take it for a moment." Xie Shen exhaled hot air, looked at Xu Qianqian and said, "During the time you left, I didn't think about food or food, I didn't eat oil and salt, and I lost weight because of hunger. .If you don’t come back, I’m afraid I’m going to starve and pass out.”

Xie Shen talked a lot, Miss Xu murmured: "Really?"

Xie Shen was overjoyed: "Of course it is true."

"Shangxie! I want to know you, and my longevity will never end. There are no hills in the mountains, the rivers are exhausted, the thunder in winter shakes the rain and snow in summer, the heaven and the earth are united, so I dare to die with you!"

Xu Qianqian has naturally heard the poem "Shangxie".

Hearing this poem uttered from the mouth of the admirer, Xu Qianqian blushed for a moment and said: "You are so glib, I don't know what to say."

Xie Shen breathed out a hot breath in Xu Qianqian's ear, "Silence is better than sound at this time."

In midsummer, cicadas sing from time to time in the yard.

Ms. Xu and Xie Shen leaned against the old locust tree and told each other their love stories, which really lived up to the beauty of the beautiful day.

Fortunately, Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xu were really tired and didn't have the energy to wander around the yard, otherwise it would be really embarrassing to see this scene.

The two naturally talked about Xu Guan's condition while chatting.

Xie Shen asked about Mrs. Xu's condition, Miss Xu feigned anger and said, "You idiot only thinks of Daddy now, Daddy really loves you for nothing."

Xie Shen hurriedly apologized: "Thousands of mistakes are my fault, Qianqian, please don't get angry and hurt yourself."

Xu Qianqian just thought it was funny, why did everything change in this little friend's mouth?
"Whoever wants to get angry with you, pretend to be affectionate!"

Xie Shen said with a smile: "It's good not to be angry, and wrinkles are easy to appear when angry."

"what!"

Xu Qianqian said in horror, "Is this true?"

Xie Shen spread his hands and said, "Of course it is, why am I lying to you?"

Xu Qianqian sighed and said, "I've been running around and visiting famous doctors these days because of my father's illness, and my complexion has really changed a lot."

Xie Shen smiled leisurely: "Fortunately, you came back in time, this disease is best cured, if you stay with me day and night, I guarantee that you will recover in two or three days."
