The villain is too crazy, the little ancestor is not going to do it anymore
Chapter 103 Li Shenzhi's Wontons
【He is right. 】
[I checked the system records, and it turns out that Mr. Jiang's dream was a foreshadowing carefully arranged by the system, aiming to lay a deep foundation for the future recognition of the grandfather and grandson.]
"I do believe you a little. But do you think I should accept these things? I'm about to leave this place, and these things don't seem to be of much use to me."
Gu Xiaohei snorted, "Woman, are you sure you can complete the task successfully? These are all real wealth, are you sure you don't want them?"
"Why can't I finish it? I have a strong feeling that after meeting Li Shenzhi tonight, my favorability rating will definitely increase by another 50 percentage points."
Gu Ranle said confidently, with a determined light in his eyes.
[Hey, it seems like you are planning to use your honey trap tonight! Do you need me to block your five senses? ]
"What do you say?"
Gu Ranle didn't continue chatting with Gu Xiaohei. He closed the iron box and made a decision.
She looked up at Jiang Haisheng, "Uncle Jiang, these things——"
Before Gu Ranle could finish her words, Jiang Haisheng said anxiously, "Miss Lele, you must accept these things. You may have guessed that the old man's health is getting worse. He told me that being able to recognize you before he died and handing over the things he prepared for you over the years to you personally is also one of his wishes."
Gu Ranle felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
She nodded gently, "Okay, I'll take these things."
In return, she will do her best to let Mr. Jiang live a little longer.
Although she couldn't save Mr. Jiang for another three to five years like she did with Mr. Luo, she was confident that she could get three to five months.
However, she had to plan carefully and make Mr. Jiang willing to go back to Gucheng with her for treatment.
After all, it is inconvenient to live in someone else's home, and she can't live in the capital forever.
When Jiang Haisheng heard Gu Ranle's answer, he was so excited that his eyes even turned slightly red.
"If the old man knew that you accepted these things, he would be very happy."
Gu Ranle stayed at the Jiang family until Mr. Jiang woke up.
She dined with Mr. Jiang, and the two chatted as they ate, creating a warm and harmonious atmosphere.
Although Mr. Jiang was physically weak, he was in exceptionally good spirits. It seemed that his reunion with Gu Ranle had allowed him to find the joy and motivation in life again.
After dinner, Gu Ranle chatted with Mr. Jiang for a while before getting up to say goodbye.
Jiang Haisheng pushed Mr. Jiang all the way to the gate.
After hesitating for a while, Mr. Jiang finally asked the question that had been on his lips countless times, with a hint of caution in his voice.
"Le Le, can you stay at grandpa's place tomorrow night?"
He knew that his request might be a little greedy, but the human heart is always like this, after getting a little, they want more.
Gu Ranle understood Mr. Jiang’s feelings and his expectations.
So, she smiled and made a bigger invitation: "Would you like to come back to the city and live with me for a while?"
Upon hearing this, Mr. Jiang was surprised and delighted, even a little bit unbelievable.
He could clearly feel his granddaughter's alienation from him, which was understandable, after all, they had not met for more than 20 years.
Just now he mustered up the courage to ask her to stay at his house tomorrow night, and he was mentally prepared for her to refuse.
However, he never expected that she would actually take the initiative to invite him to live with her at home.
Mr. Jiang felt surprised and delighted, even a little bit unbelievable.
Of course he is willing.
In the past, he never imagined that he would be admitted to the hospital. He always felt that even if he died, he would die in the house where he had lived all his life.
But as time went on, his health deteriorated and he was eventually sent to the hospital.
During his time in the hospital, he also figured out many things.
He began to realize that the house where he had lived all his life was actually nothing special.
He closed his eyes and could take nothing with him.
It doesn't matter where you close your eyes.
Now, he is able to meet his granddaughter in the last moments of his life and have the opportunity to live with her for a while, which he has been longing for.
"Is this... really possible?" There was some trembling and anticipation in Mr. Jiang's voice.
Gu Ranle smiled back at him gently, "As long as you are willing."
Mr. Jiang nodded excitedly, "I do! Then when will we go back to the city?"
"Just these two days. I'll let you know tomorrow when we've set a date."
"Okay, Old Jiang, help me pack my luggage quickly." Old Master Jiang instructed Jiang Haisheng impatiently, as if he could not wait to embark on this new journey.
After saying goodbye to Mr. Jiang, Gu Ranle drove back to the Luo family.
On the way, Gu Ranle called Gu Jingcheng and learned that they had arrived at Luo's house safely in the afternoon and were having dinner at the moment.
After hanging up the phone, her phone screen lit up again, this time it was Song Yu calling.
"Little girl, we're at the hotel. Where are you now?" Song Yu's voice came through the phone.
Gu Ranle looked out the window. Night had fallen quietly, but the city lights were as bright as day, reflecting a soft light in her eyes.
"I'll be at the hotel in fifteen minutes. Have you guys eaten yet?"
"No, I'm waiting for you to treat me." Song Yu joked, with a hint of ease and joy in his voice.
"Okay, wait for me." Gu Ranle agreed and drove to the hotel.
In less than fifteen minutes, Gu Ranle arrived at the hotel.
A group of people were waiting for her in the hotel lobby. Ling Chong was sharp-eyed and was the first to see her. He immediately reported to Li Shenzhi.
"Sir, the young lady has arrived."
Upon hearing this, Li Shenzhi immediately raised his head. He was holding a thermos bag tightly in his arms, as if he was hiding some treasure.
His eyes were full of anticipation and doting. When the familiar footsteps approached, he immediately spoke like offering a treasure: "Baby, I brought you your favorite braised pig's trotters, wontons, and meat patties."
Gu Ranle rubbed her stomach. She had a full meal at Grandpa Jiang's house that night and didn't want to eat anything at the moment. But seeing his expectant look, she couldn't bear to say no.
"Brother Shenzhi is quite thoughtful." She teased, a smile on her lips.
Li Shenzhi smiled brightly, his eyes full of doting, "You must be considerate, otherwise how can you catch a wife? It's still hot, try it while it's hot."
"We'll eat later." Gu Ranle looked outside. "What do you want to eat? It's my treat."
"I just saw a home-style restaurant nearby. Let's go there and have a simple meal." Song Yu suggested.
Li Shenzhi nodded in agreement, "I have no objection."
Since everyone has no objection, then it’s settled.
Next door to the hotel is the home-style restaurant. There were not many people there at this time, and they were lucky to book an empty private room.
Song Yu was responsible for ordering food, while Gu Ranle went to wash his hands.
When she came back, Li Shenzhi had already placed the food in the thermos lunch box on the table one by one.
The aroma of braised pig's trotters hits your nose, and the wontons and meat patties also exude an enticing smell.
"I can't finish so much. I've already eaten." Gu Ranle said with some embarrassment.
Li Shenzhi smiled and said, "Eat as much as you can, and I'll eat the rest."
Gu Ranle took a small bowl and planned to scoop out a few wontons to taste.
She didn't notice it when she scooped the first wonton, but when she scooped the second one, she found something wrong.
The shape of the wontons is really hard to describe, it looks like they were just randomly pinched together.
She couldn't help but turn her head to look at Li Shenzhi, "Did you make these wontons?"
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Li Shenzhi's face. "Isn't it particularly ugly? But I tasted it...it's okay."
The wonton skin and wonton filling are prepared by the chef, and he is responsible for wrapping them.
Although the chef taught him step by step, he felt that he had no talent for making wontons. He couldn't see the shape and could only feel it with his hands, and the shape was still unsatisfactory.
Gu Ranle put a wonton into his mouth. It tasted really good. It seemed that the filling was not prepared by him.
"It's a bit ugly, but it tastes good. What kind of novel have you read? If you want to capture a woman's heart, you must first capture her stomach?" She teased with a smile.
Li Shenzhi scratched his head a little embarrassedly, "You found out. I heard it. Do you like it?"
His eyes were full of anticipation and nervousness, as if he was waiting for a crucial answer.
Gu Ranle looked at his serious and embarrassed expression and couldn't help but reach out and pinch his face.
"Well, I like it very much. This trick of yours is very useful to me. Come on, try to do better next time." Her voice was full of encouragement and pampering.
When Li Shenzhi heard this, a hint of surprise and emotion flashed in his eyes.
He held Gu Ranle's hand tightly, "Baby, I will try my best."
【Ding dong! 】
【Favorability +10】
[Host's current favorability: 0]
I added 10 in one go, and there are still four steps to 50. It was done easily and happily.
At this time, Song Yu stretched his neck to look over and laughed.
"Little girl, are you sure you can swallow this wonton?"
Not to mention that some are big and some are small, many of them even have the skin and filling separated. The skin is the skin and the filling is the filling.
Gu Ranle looked up at Song Yu, "Uncle, you don't want to help, but don't make things worse, okay?"
No one present except Song Yu knew what she meant by this.
Song Yu immediately made a zipper motion on his mouth and stopped talking.
"Baby, why don't you stop eating?" Li Shenzhi said in a low voice.
"Why not eat it?" Gu Ranle blinked, "Although it doesn't look good, it tastes really good."
As she spoke, she scooped up a wonton wrapper from the previous family with a spoon and brought it to Li Shenzhi's mouth, "Here, try half of it."
Li Shenzhi opened his mouth and put the wonton skin into his mouth.
He chewed twice, looking embarrassed, but still managed a forced smile.
"Baby, why don't you just stop eating?" Li Shenzhi said in a low voice, with a hint of apology and uneasiness in his eyes.
"Why not eat it?" Gu Ranle blinked, "Although it doesn't look good, it tastes really good."
As she spoke, she gently scooped up a wonton wrapper with a spoon and carefully brought it to Li Shenzhi's mouth, "Here, try half of it. I believe you will like it."
Li Shenzhi opened his mouth and put the wonton skin into his mouth.
He chewed twice, looking embarrassed.
"Bao, stop eating."
Gu Ranle seemed not to have heard him, and scooped up another ball of stuffing that had not yet completely spread out, and brought it to his mouth, "Come on, eat another half."
Li Shenzhi had no choice but to open his mouth again. He thought it was just skin, but unexpectedly it was full of stuffing this time.
"It actually tastes pretty good..."
Li Shenzhi was obviously not confident when he said this, because he knew that the good taste was mainly due to the well-seasoned filling, and this was not his credit.
Gu Ranle noticed his embarrassment. She scooped a wonton with stuffing inside and put it in her mouth, chewing it slowly.
"The taste is really good. It's great that you can make wontons like this for the first time. You see, you brought them here from Gucheng and soaked them for several hours. They can still maintain such a texture and taste. It's already very good."
"Bao, I know you are comforting me." Li Shenzhi said with a wry smile.
"Didn't you hear that I was encouraging you?" Gu Ranle looked at him seriously. "The first time is a little harder than the second time. You have to believe in yourself. You will definitely do better next time."
After saying that, Gu Ranle ate the only six whole wontons and gave the rest to Li Shenzhi.
She smiled and said to Li Shenzhi: "Brother Shenzhi, just think of it as eating noodle and meatball soup, and you will be able to swallow it."
Song Yu, who was standing by, heard this and his mouth twitched. He thought to himself: Why don't you think you are eating noodle and meatball soup? Why do you only eat the ones that are intact? You really spared no effort to gain some favorability.
Li Shenzhi finished the "noodle and meatball soup" with tears in his eyes. He was so full that he couldn't eat anything else.
Gu Ranle also ate half of the pig's trotter, and she repacked the rest and said she would take it home and heat it up tomorrow.
The main thing is that these things are not made by Li Shenzhi, and they taste really good.
After dinner, Gu Ranle sent Li Shenzhi and the others back to the hotel, and then returned to the Luo family.
After dinner, the rest of the people went back to their rooms, and only Gu Jingcheng was waiting for Gu Ranle downstairs.
"Brother." Gu Ranle walked up to Gu Jingcheng and explained softly, "I had some things to deal with this afternoon, and just now I went to the hotel to have dinner with Uncle Song and Li Shenzhi, so I came back a little late."
Gu Jingcheng nodded to show his understanding, "I know you are busy, so I didn't call you to disturb you."
Then, Gu Jingcheng turned his head and looked around, lowering his voice and said, "Le Le, I have something to discuss with you. When I came here, I prepared gifts for Mr. Luo, Mr. and Mrs. Luo, Fu Hanting, and Mr. Luo's goddaughter, but not for the others. Do you want to prepare gifts for the others as well? After all, our family is living in someone else's home, so it would be more polite."
Gu Ranle listened to his eldest brother's words and smiled slightly, "No need for others, what you prepared is enough."
Gu Jingcheng was still a little hesitant after hearing this, "Will this make us seem ignorant of etiquette?"
Gu Ranle shook his head, "Brother, you are too nervous."
Gu Jingcheng took a deep breath and said, "Well, it's getting late. You should go back and have a shower and sleep. Tomorrow is your home game."
