Wait what? Master Sheng compromised just like that?

Yu Xi felt that Master Sheng was incredibly easy-going today.

Jian Yujie snorted in dissatisfaction. However, he didnt say anything. He had heard that Master Sheng had poor health. As a result, it made sense for Yiling to prepare food that was just for him.

Everyone else just looked at the situation from where they were seated. They didnt say anything as itd be awkward for them to interrupt.

Wen Nuan felt quite anxious when she saw Zhai Yunsheng talk to her daughter from time to time.

She looked at Grandma Jian for help.

However, Grandma Jian didnt appear to have any intention to discourage such an interaction.

She had already heard from Grandpa Jian that despite the fact that Master Sheng was hard to deal with, he had no unhealthy or bad habits.

It was known by everyone that the Zhai family had attempted in numerous ways to introduce women to him. However, he had rejected all of them.

And according to Grandpa Jians evaluation, Master Sheng was fundamentally a good person. His character was similar to Jian Yiling.

Grandma Jian trusted Grandpa Jians opinion on the matter.

Furthermore, what was wrong with the younger generation hanging out? There were so many people here. Nothing would happen. If she were to interfere, wouldnt that be a bit too unreasonable?

Grandma Jian wasnt an unreasonable person.

On the other hand, He Yan hurriedly asked the chef of the Old Jian Residence to start preparing food on another barbecue grill.

It would take forever for Jian Yiling to prepare food for the eleven of them. Furthermore, the food that she prepared wouldnt even be sufficient.

She planned to just let the children play around with their cooking.

Naturally, the chef could start preparing large amounts of food for the guests.

She had to make sure that a distinguished guest like Zhai Yunsheng was treated well. He must not think that the Jian family didnt know how to take care of their guests considerably.

After a while, Jian Yilings scallops and lamb skewers were ready. Jian Yujie and Yu Xi were the first to taste Jian Yilings cooking.

No spice had been added to the scallops. However, quite a bit of spice was added to the skewers.

Yu Xi didnt know when Jian Yiling had discovered that he was addicted to spicy food.

Oh my, Yiling! Its so delicious! Jian Yujie cried out with an expression of joy. He wasnt reserved in praising her.

Yu Xi muttered to himself. Even if Yiling fed you bitter medicine, youd probably say its sweet or something

After that thought, Yu Xi bit down on a lamb skewer.

Wow! How is this even? These lamb skewers are better than the ones I buy from restaurants!

Of course! Yiling made them for you! How can you compare the two?

Jian Yujie replied to Yu Xis statement. It was to be expected.

No, like legit! Im not lying. Its much better than the ones I eat outside!

Yu Xi hadnt expected Jian Yilings skewers to be so delicious.

However, it wasnt a surprise that Jian Yilings skewers tasted better than the ones that were made in restaurants and roadside stalls.

First of all, the ingredients were different. They had bought the best meat. It was fresh and succulent. Most restaurants and roadside stalls wouldnt use such expensive and high-class ingredients in their skewers.

Furthermore, Jian Yiling had followed the texture of the meat when she sliced it. The seasoning had also been carefully prepared. When she cooked them, she had also been precise with her control of the fire and time.

After a moment, the prawns and corn were ready. After Jian Yiling placed them on separate plates, Jian Yujie brought the plates over to Grandma and Grandpa Jian.

Jian Yiling brought out an earthenware that she had prepared in the kitchen. She poured water onto the barbecue grill and then heated the earthenware.

It appeared as though she was planning to heat soup.

Then, Jian Yiling began roasting different types of mushrooms.

This type of mushroom could be roasted directly. She didnt have to brush oil on them. When they were almost ready, she sprinkled a little bit of salt on them. In that way, the natural flavor of the mushrooms could be preserved.
