When they heard that the street outside was going to be rebuilt, Yang Xiaoxi's grandparents were also a little surprised.

Afterwards, Yang Huaicheng said with some regret: "That's really a pity. This street is so unique. Once it's rebuilt, I'm afraid it won't be open for business for a long time. I'm afraid business will get worse after that, right?"

Chen Shoulin listened and said, "That's not necessarily true. The plan for the reconstruction of the old street has already appeared. It's basically a way of restoring the old to its original state. During the reconstruction, there are also plans for stalls for merchants in the old street. It shouldn't be difficult to maintain customers and popularity."

In this regard, Chen Yaofei's grandfather is obviously more optimistic about the development potential after the reconstruction of the old street.

"After the ancient street is renovated, it can be used as a landmark cultural attraction in Huaicheng to attract more tourists from other places. Then the business will be good."

After hearing what Chen Shoulin said, Yang Huaicheng thought about it carefully and felt that it seemed to make some sense.

Yang Xiaoxi's grandmother Wen Hong said, "Then the street outside has been renovated. Although there is space for stalls, it is still inconvenient for restaurants like Su Ji, right?"

Yang Zhiyi smiled and replied to his mother: "Su Ji can also set up a stall."

Yang Huaicheng asked his son curiously: "How do you set up a stall? Do you want to set up a food stall?"

Lu Cuiling smiled and said, "It's not impossible to open a food stall. Our Su Ji's dishes can also be placed in a street food stall."

Yang Zhiyi has another opinion: "I think if Chef Feng sets up a small stall specializing in selling noodles and fried rice, business will be booming and many people will eat there. He will definitely make the same amount of money as he does now, but he will have to work harder."

Wen Hong was a little surprised after hearing what her son said: "Isn't Su Ji a restaurant? Why does it only serve noodles and fried rice?"

Yang Zhiyi quickly explained to his mother: "Because Su Ji only sells noodles and fried rice at noon, and the noodles at Su Ji are really special. Many people come here to line up to eat at noon."

Yang Xiaoxi's grandparents were a little surprised when they heard this: "So amazing?"

Just at this moment, three little girls came back from the kitchen.

When Yang Xiaoxi heard her grandparents exclaim, she quickly stepped forward and said, "Grandpa and grandma, let me tell you, the noodles that Daddy Feng makes are really delicious, and the fried rice is also great. If you have tried them, you will definitely like them very much."

Seeing their little granddaughter come back, the grandparents were naturally very happy and reached out to hug her.

After hearing what his granddaughter said, the grandfather was also full of curiosity: "Is it really that delicious?"

Yang Xiaoxi nodded: "Yes, it's delicious."

Chen Yaofei added: "You can add different dishes to the noodles made by Father Feng. Each of those dishes is delicious, and they taste even better when eaten with noodles."

Grandma Xixi looked a little strange: "Adding different vegetables to noodles? How do you eat that?"

Chen Shoulin smiled and said: "That should be called 'toppings', which means different combinations to make the noodles taste better."

Yang Huaicheng immediately understood: "Oh, it's noodles with toppings, right?"

Su Jinrong nodded and said, "Yes, noodles with toppings."

Yang Xiaoxi's grandparents immediately said, "If we have the chance, we really have to try it."

Then, Yang Xiaoxi said to her grandparents, "Grandpa and grandma, Daddy Feng told you to order. Tell Auntie Su to write the menu. Ruoruo, Feifei and I will take it to Daddy Feng, and he will cook for you. Grandpa and grandma, hurry up and order."

As soon as Yang Xiaoxi finished speaking, Su Ruoxi handed today's menu to the two elderly people.

"Uncle and aunt, look, this is our menu for today. If you want to eat anything that is not on the menu, you can tell me and I will ask Ruoruo's father to make it for you."

After taking the menu, the old couple took a look at the very rich variety of dishes on the menu. It was so dazzling that they didn't know where to choose.

Grandma Xixi said, "Oh, there are so many dishes."

Grandpa Xixi also said: "There are so many, I don't know what to choose."

Grandpa Feifei smiled and said, "It's okay. Just order whatever you two want to eat. Just order according to your usual tastes."

Grandpa Xixi then said, "Well, why don't you guys come over? We don't know what to order."

At this time, Su Jinrong said, "Usually, what kind of food do you like to eat? Fish? Meat? Eggs? Vegetables? What kind of food?"

After some questioning by Su Jinrong and with the guidance of everyone around, Yang Xiaoxi's grandparents quickly selected a few dishes, including some of Su's more distinctive dishes.

The rest are some more homely dishes that can be eaten together.

Su Ruoxi finished writing the menu and handed it to Yang Xiaoxi: "Okay, Xixi, take this menu, and you three can take it to Father Feng in the kitchen."

Yang Xiaoxi was very happy holding the menu. She called Feng Ruoruo and Chen Yaofei and ran to the kitchen together.

Seeing the three little girls running into the kitchen again, Yang Huaicheng couldn't help but say, "Isn't it bad to let three children run in and out like this?"

Lu Cuiling smiled and responded: "Grandpa Xixi, don't worry. The three of them are used to this. Let the children play. It's okay."

Grandma Yang Xiaoxi still had some worry on her face: "I'm afraid the three of them will bump into each other."

Yang Zhiyi comforted his mother: "Mom, don't worry. The three of them may look like they are running very fast, but they are actually very careful. Every time they open the door, they will check to see if anyone wants to come out before they push the door open and go in."

Grandpa Feifei also said: "Yes, the three little girls are very smart."

After listening to everyone's words, Yang Xiaoxi's grandparents stopped dwelling on this issue and started chatting with everyone about some family matters.

As they chatted, Xixi's grandmother said in surprise: "It's really interesting that all three of us have girls."

Yang Zhiyi smiled bitterly and said, "Mom, Xixi is friends with Ruoruo and Feifei. Only three little girls can be good friends. They usually won't play with little boys."

After hearing what her son said, Wen Hong couldn't help but say, "Boys can also play together. You and Fei'er are still young. You can have a boy and then play with the three sisters. Isn't that great?"

As they were chatting, the topic turned to this point. Yang Zhiyi was really at a loss for words and didn't know how to respond to his mother.

After a brief moment of awkwardness, Feifei's grandmother asked curiously, "Why? Are Xixi's father and mother planning to have another child?"

Now that someone had taken up the conversation, it naturally gave Wenhong the opportunity to continue the topic.

"Grandma Feifei, the couple doesn't want to have a baby. I think they are still young, and Xixi would be too lonely on her own. I hope they can have another child while they are still young to keep Xixi company."

Li Xiuchun heard what Xixi's grandmother said and looked at Xixi's father's embarrassed face. The old lady immediately guessed that Yang Xiaoxi's parents and grandparents might have a disagreement on the issue of having children.

After a pause, Li Xiuchun smiled and said, "Grandma Xixi, it still depends on the couple's willingness to have a baby. Besides, Xixi, Ruoruo and Feifei get along very well. The three girls will play together even if they don't go to kindergarten. They should not be lonely when they go to school together in the future."

Wen Hong originally thought that Chen Yaofei's grandmother would agree with her point of view. After all, they are both grandmothers, and Li Xiuchun should also want to hold a grandson, which will give her face in front of neighbors and colleagues.

She never expected that Li Xiuchun would disagree with her idea.

Wenhong immediately felt that she and Grandma Feifei did not have much in common and their concepts were also different.

So she said to herself: "It's still better to have brothers and sisters. If the family encounters any difficulties in the future, at least there will be someone to discuss it with. Besides, it's hard to say whether the three girls can always be so close in the future, so I really need to think about it more."

Hearing his mother say this, Yang Zhiyi felt very helpless, especially when she asked in front of the two girls' families whether the three girls would always be so close in the future.

At this moment, Yang Zhiyi even didn't know how to face the other two girls' parents.

The atmosphere was very awkward at one point and everyone kept silent as if they didn't want to talk anymore.

Lu Cuiling stepped in and said, "Grandma Xixi's worries are reasonable, but I think we should let the children handle their own affairs. I think Ruoruo, Xixi, and Feifei are all so good, and their friendship will definitely continue."

Without waiting for Grandma Xixi to speak, Lu Cuiling continued, "As for the matter of having children, it depends on the couple. We, as old people, should not force them too much."

After listening to what Grandma Ruoruo said, Wenhong suddenly felt that no one present agreed with her, which was very boring.

Yang Zhiyi stopped his mother in time: "Mom, we are here as guests today, let's talk about these things when we get home."

Yang Huaicheng naturally noticed that his wife was dissatisfied, and was a little worried that she would just get up and leave.

The old man also said, "Yes, we are here as guests. We should go home and discuss the matter of having a baby with our son and daughter-in-law. There is no need to talk about it here. Let's just taste it today. Our Xixi praised it so much. It must be because of her father Feng's cooking skills."

With her husband and son trying to persuade her, Wen Hong couldn't just get up and leave, so she could only keep quiet.

The atmosphere was briefly awkward again.

Fortunately, the three little girls ran back quickly.

Yang Xiaoxi threw herself into the arms of her grandparents and said happily, "Grandpa and grandma, we can eat soon. Father Feng is already cooking for us. You will definitely like the food Father Feng cooks when you see it."

With the little granddaughter around, the atmosphere naturally returned to its previous joy.

Yang Huaicheng hugged his granddaughter and said, "Our Xixi has been praising it all day, grandpa and grandma must taste it carefully."

After hearing what grandpa said, Yang Xiaoxi said with a smile: "Okay, grandpa and grandma will be ready in a while."

Wenhong was still somewhat unhappy because she felt very uncomfortable because she did not get approval on the issue of having a grandson. But in front of her granddaughter, especially when she saw her granddaughter's happy look, she kept smiling and chatted with the other two children's grandfathers and grandparents about other topics.

The atmosphere was quickly restored, and Su Ruoxi was a little frightened watching from the side.

Fortunately, there are three lovely granddaughters, so the elderly people naturally cannot show their unhappiness in front of the children.

Feng Yifan did not keep the guests outside waiting for too long, and the dishes were quickly presented to everyone.

When Yang Xiaoxi's grandparents saw the dishes at Su Ji, they were amazed. They had never imagined that such a small restaurant could produce such beautiful dishes.

To Yang Xiaoxi’s grandparents, every dish is like a work of art.

Even before they tasted the food, the color and aroma of the dish had already convinced the two elderly people.

Yang Huaicheng couldn't help but admire: "It's really amazing. I didn't expect such an ordinary vegetable could be made so beautifully."

The dish that Grandpa Yang Xiaoxi was talking about was a very homely dish of mushrooms and vegetables.

But Feng Yifan makes this ordinary home-cooked dish look really extraordinary through the presentation of the dish and the color of the finished dish, which makes people reluctant to eat it.

Seeing that Yang Xiaoxi's grandparents were hesitant and didn't know how to pick up their chopsticks, Su Jinrong smiled and said, "Try it. You're welcome."

At Su Jinrong's invitation, the elderly couple Yang Huaicheng and Wen Hong started eating together.

Although the presentation of the dish looked different and made the dish look very beautiful, when the old couple really picked up a piece of food with chopsticks, they still couldn't believe that an ordinary dish of mushrooms and vegetables could taste anything different.

When you take a bite, the juice from the mushrooms will actually overflow, and a salty and fresh taste will spread in your mouth.

Yang Huaicheng had to admit that this taste really overturned his decades of cognition.

It turns out that a very ordinary plate of mushrooms and vegetables can also be made so delicious. The mushrooms will be very delicious when you chew them with the juice overflowing.

Wenhong was eating vegetables, and to her surprise, she tasted the aroma of meat while chewing them.

A simple plate of mushrooms and vegetables really makes the old couple feel comfortable and refreshed.

After Yang Huaicheng finished eating, he couldn't help but sigh: "It's really delicious. I didn't expect that mushrooms and vegetables could be cooked so deliciously. Brother Su, your son-in-law is amazing."

When Yang Zhiyi saw the looks on his parents' faces, he actually wanted to say "Basic exercises, my six".

This reaction from the parents was really expected.

Next, Su Ji’s cuisine officially began to be presented. It should be said that it was chef Feng Yifan’s level. More and more beautiful dishes were served one after another. Each one was a work of art, and the taste was beyond words.

Whether it is light like mushrooms and vegetables, or stir-fried three whites in lotus pond.

It’s still the rich and strong roasted saddle bridge and cherry meat.

It can be said that they are all very delicious, and Feng Yifan's alternating between rich and light dishes ensures that the elderly will not feel sick of eating them.

At the end, Feng Yifan served each person at the table a beautiful small cup.

When Yang Xiaoxi's grandparents opened the lid, they saw that inside the small cup, on top of a emerald green lotus leaf, was a white and tender lion head that looked like it was carved out of jade.

Feng Yifan stood beside the table and introduced to Yang Xiaoxi's grandparents: "The last dish is steamed lion's head in lotus leaves. Please taste it, uncle and aunt."
