He held the chopsticks in his hand, hesitating whether to pick up food or rice.
An Shuishui suddenly asked: "Brother-in-law..."
"Huh?" Xu Xiuwen was surprised.
"What other dishes do you like? I'll learn how to cook them for you next time." An Shuishui said with a smile.
"That... that's so embarrassing."
An Shuishui said: "Brother-in-law, you are so polite to me. You have been so good to me and helped me, my sister and my mother so much. If I have to say anything, I should be the one who feels sorry. You don't have to feel embarrassed."
Liu Ruo also said, "Yes, Xiao Xu, you are our great benefactor. If it weren't for you, the three of us might still be suffering in the countryside. How could we live in a building every day and buy whatever we want to eat like we do now? Just tell me what you want to eat. Shuishui is different from Shishi. She has a talent for cooking. As long as she is taught once, she can cook as well as I do."
Without waiting for Xu Xiuwen to speak.
An Shishi was dissatisfied.
"Mom, is there anyone who insults his daughter like you? What do you mean Shui Shui is different from me? If I learn to cook seriously, I can also cook well."
Liu Ruo had an expression that said, "Do you think I believe you?"
Seeing this, An Shishi suddenly turned around and asked Xu Xiuwen: "Husband, do you believe me?"
Xu Xiuwen's hands trembled and the chopsticks in his hand almost fell onto the table.
I don’t know if this An Shishi has done this too many times.
His ability to step on others should not be underestimated.
He took a big mouthful of rice and swallowed it down in a hurry.
Prevent yourself from making strange noises.
Then he looked at An Shishi and said, "I believe..."
An Shishi heard this, a smile flashed in her eyes, and she turned to Liu Ruo and said, "Mom, you heard it, my husband believes me."
Chapter 779 Surprise
Liu Ruo said: "If you don't learn how to cook earlier, when you get married, your future mother-in-law will dislike you sooner or later. Don't blame me for not reminding you then."
An Shishi said, "Mom, Aunt Ning is not that kind of person, right, husband."
"Yeah, my mom is definitely not that kind of person... um... and her cooking skills are average..."
After hearing this, Liu Ruo said nothing more.
Maybe it was because it hadn’t been discovered for half a day.
An Shishi liked to ponder more and more.
He decided to bring up a topic to divert the three people's attention.
Xu Xiuwen said: "My mother's birthday is in a few days, and I plan to buy her a gift tomorrow."
"Auntie is going to have a birthday?" An Shishi asked excitedly.
An Shishi’s excitement is actually easy to understand.
Ning Wanqiu is equivalent to her future mother-in-law.
Although the former doesn't know her yet.
But sooner or later you will know.
Children from single-parent families generally have deeper feelings for their father or mother than those from normal families.
They will also care more about their parents' opinions.
Maybe he will follow his parents' arrangements when choosing a girlfriend.
Of course there are exceptions.
But from my previous contact with Xu Xiuwen.
She could feel that Xu Xiuwen still respected and cared about Ning Wanqiu.
If she could win Ning Wanqiu's favor.
It may be possible for her to overtake others and replace Xiao Youran to become Xu Xiuwen's legal wife.
Even if you can't overtake on the curve.
At least when the day comes when her relationship with Xu Xiuwen is exposed, Ning Wanqiu will be less resistant.
But what if Ning Wanqiu really dislikes her.
Maybe Xu Xiuwen would break up with her reluctantly.
So when I heard that Ning Wanqiu was going to have a birthday.
An Shishi immediately perked up.
I didn’t have many opportunities to meet Ning Wanqiu before.
This is a good opportunity.
She would not ask Xu Xiuwen to take her home to see Ning Wanqiu.
But a birthday present must be prepared.
Leave an impression in Ning Wanqiu's mind in advance.
To pave the way for her to appear in front of Ning Wanqiu in the future.
An Shuishui was also a little surprised and asked: "Brother-in-law, is Auntie going to have a birthday?"
Xu Xiuwen nodded: "Well, the 27th is... um... my mother's birthday."
Xu Xiuwen glanced at An Shishi.
An Shishi squinted her eyes and smiled: "Hubby, I haven't prepared a gift for Auntie yet."
An Shuishui also said: "I haven't prepared anything either."
Xu Xiuwen said: "I didn't tell you in advance, so you don't have to prepare. I can prepare it by myself."
An Shishi said, "How can that be possible? If Auntie knew that I knew about her birthday but didn't send her a gift, she would definitely be unhappy."
An Shuishui agreed with her sister's words and nodded.
Liu Ruo interrupted, "Xiao Xu, if Shishi and Shuishui don't know, it's fine. But if they do know, if I don't send them gifts, it will seem like they don't know how to behave. If outsiders find out, they will also say that I, as a mother, have not taught my daughter well. Just agree to let them send me gifts."
Xu Xiuwen saw that his mother-in-law had spoken.
I had no choice but to agree.
"All right then."
An Shishi smiled and said, "Hubby, let's go to the street with you tomorrow."
"Yeah." Xu Xiuwen nodded and gave him another warning look.
After An Shishi saw it.
Only then did he stop.
Having avoided social death, Xu Xiuwen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
After dinner.
Xu Xiuwen naturally stayed.
It was still quite early, so I didn't go back to my room directly, but stayed in the living room to watch TV.
Liu Ruo was washing dishes in the kitchen.
An Shuishui went over to help.
An Shishi stayed in the living room like Xu Xiuwen.
Xu Xiuwen watched the news on TV carefully.
An Shishi leaned on him and fiddled with his hand.
Xu Xiuwen pretended to be impatient and said: "Stop making trouble..."
An Shishi wrinkled her nose and continued to fiddle with his hands.
Not only did she cross her fingers, but she also covered the back of his hand with her other hand.
A very rare look.
Xu Xiuwen was both happy and helpless.
He turned his head to look at An Shishi, and just as he was about to speak, he suddenly noticed the other person's affectionate eyes.
There was a hint of water in those beautiful eyes.
Xu Xiuwen was stunned for a moment, and naturally couldn't say a word of scolding.
An Shishi rolled her eyes and leaned close to his ear and said, "Honey, do you want to take a shower?"
Xu Xiuming asked knowingly, "Why are you taking a bath?"
"Take a shower and go to bed." An Shishi said.
