Genshin Impact: Zhongli discovered that he was stealing tributes at the beginning

Chapter 25 Family Dinner



"Grandpa, we are back!"

"Grandpa Wu Yong, Wu Ye and I are back!"

Wu Ye came to the door of his yard with things in both hands and shouted loudly, and Hu Tao also shouted.

"What are you doing? You are a good scholar, aren't you?"

"Just a little bit, I want to learn! You care about me?!"

Hutao stuck out her tongue and said with a playful smile.

"Hey, I'm back! Come on, Xiaotao, come in quickly, it's hot outside, grandpa, I've made peach cake for you."

"Yeah, thank you, Grandpa Wu."

"Don't call me Grandpa Wu. Just call me Grandpa from now on. I have already treated you as my own granddaughter. You should come and stay with me more often and chat with me."

"Okay, Grandpa, I will. Please be careful and walk slowly. You have just recovered, so don't walk too fast."

Wu Yong kindly pulled Hu Tao into the yard, and Hu Tao also supported Wu Yong thoughtfully.

What a warm and loving scene, a loving father and a filial son, full of happiness.

Huh? Looking at their retreating figures, Wu Ye stood at the door and blinked. He felt something was wrong. He felt that he was already out of tune with this family.

"Grandpa...well, I'm also at the door."

Wu Ye raised the things in his hands and reminded.

"Oh~, it turns out that Xiao Ye is back too?!"

Wu Yong patted his head and said with a smile:

"Haha, man, I'm getting old and my eyesight is hard to use. Xiao Tao, please go in and sit down first. I'll help Xiao Ye carry the things."

After Hu Tao walked into the house, Wu Yong turned around to help his grandson hold the things. He asked in a low voice:

"Xiaoye, how's it going?"

"What happened?"

"Oh! You brat, why are you acting like a fool? I mean, have your relationship with Xiao Tao gotten better after you went out this morning?"

"No, it's still the same."

"You...you are so disappointing. Xiaotao is such a good girl, you have to work hard. Her grandfather also told me before he died that when Xiaotao becomes an adult and finds someone he likes, he will help check it. I Thinking about it..."

"Okay, okay, grandpa, I know, you old man, don't worry about this, okay, let the young people decide for themselves."

"Hey, how could I have a grandson who is so insensitive to emotions like you? When I chased your grandma, I did everything I could. Your grandma was a flower in Liyue Port when she was young. People who like her have always loved her. Liyue traveled to Mondstadt. In order to catch up with her, I created a chance encounter, brought a bouquet of flowers every time we met, took her to the top of Longji Snow Mountain, and took her across the thunderstorm-filled sea to Daozhu to enjoy the cherry blossoms. , and also took her to the mysterious Xumi to see shooting stars, and..."

"Okay! Grandpa, stop talking, I know what I should do."

Wu Ye nodded helplessly, but thought of something and said:

"Grandpa, I remember that your version this time is different from before. What you said last time was that grandma thought you were handsome and chased you for a year before you reluctantly agreed. I see you, the older you get. , the more you brag, the less you need to write a manuscript."

After Wu Ye finished speaking, he quickly put down the things in his hands and ran away.

Wu Yong was so angry that he took off his cloth shoes and threw them at Wu Ye, saying angrily:

"You brat! The older you get, the less worry you have. Return my shoes to me quickly. I have to cook for Xiao Tao. You have to entertain Xiao Tao well. If she leaves unhappy, don't come back. .”

"Okay, grandpa, look, since you recovered from your illness, you have become more energetic and vigorous. If it doesn't work, I will work harder tomorrow and go out to find an old lady who can't get married to help you match up. Let's have a good time. anger."

"you you......"

After Wu Ye escaped into the house, Wu Yong stopped pretending to be angry. He smiled and said:

"This brat, should I say it or not, he still looks like me back then."

After speaking, Wu Yong picked up the things on the floor and walked to the kitchen.

......

"Wow~, Wu Ye, the peach cake made by grandpa is great."

Hutao stuffed her mouth full and looked at Wu Ye who walked in and said vaguely.

"Yeah, I think it's delicious too, but don't eat too much at once, as you might choke. Come on, drink some water."

Wu Ye carefully poured a glass of water from the kettle and put it in front of Hu Tao's face.

"thank you."

"You're welcome, after all, I am yours... Well, who am I yours?"

Wu Ye touched his chin and said doubtfully.

"Stinky Wu Ye! You did it on purpose! Don't say that again, you are my favorite person!"

Hu Tao pounced, knocking Wu Ye to the ground, and then the two looked at each other silently, as if they were two children, trying to see who would give in first.

"Wu Ye, you bad guy! I'm ignoring you."

Hutao finally lost the battle, looked away, and said angrily.

"That's it, then I'll..."

......

"Xiao Ye! Come to the kitchen to serve the food, get ready to eat."

"Grandpa, okay!"

Wu Yong called out to Wu Ye in the kitchen. Wu Ye responded immediately and was about to go to the kitchen.

Hutao took Wu Ye's hand and wanted to know what Wu Ye had not finished saying.

"I'll just kiss you."

Hutao didn't expect that Wu Ye would respond quickly, hold her face and kiss her like a dragonfly.

"Woo, Wu Ye, you're in violation... After dinner later, I... I still want it."

Hu Tao looked at Wu Ye's back and said shyly. Wu Ye didn't look back, and made an OK gesture behind him coolly. He didn't care whether Hu Tao understood it or not. Let's explain it when he comes back. It's important to eat!

At noon, Wu Yong cooked a family dinner. There were only three people sitting at the table, from left to right, Wu Yong, Hu Tao, and Wu Ye.

Nine dishes were placed in front of the three of them, namely: slow-fried meat rolls stuffed with matsutake mushrooms, stewed and delicious pickled pork belly, spicy but not dry boiled blackback seabass, and quick-fried spicy meat rolls. Jueyun crispy rice, braised animal meat that is soft but not rotten but not fat but not greasy, stir-fried shrimps that are light and moist, cold mint that can relieve heat and relieve greasiness, lotus seed soup that clears away heat and detoxifies, and almond tofu that is cool, sweet and refreshing.

"Grandpa, there is so much, can we finish it?"

Wu Ye opened his mouth wide and looked at the dishes in front of him. They were more sumptuous than what he and his grandfather had eaten during the Chinese New Year.

"Well, it's okay. Xiao Tao hasn't been to the yard for a long time. It's a long time to come here today. It's as it should be. Use the chopsticks, Xiao Tao, treat it as your own home, don't be polite. Also, if Wu Ye bullies you, just tell him Grandpa, I will be the first to deal with him."

"Yeah! Grandpa, I understand."

Hutao replied flattered, but still did not use the chopsticks immediately. Instead, he waited for Wu Yong to lift the chopsticks to pick up the vegetables, and then followed suit. As for Wu Ye, what do you think?

As soon as he waited for Wu Yong to finish speaking, he transformed into a domestic pig and began to sweep across the wasteland, making Hu Tao laugh.

"Really, I cried to death. I really got the glory of walnuts today. How could my grandpa usually cook such a sumptuous meal?"

Wu Ye was thinking in his heart, but he kept mouthing. All he could think in his mind was "I eat, I eat, eat, eat, eat, I eat, eat, eat!"

Within a moment, Wu Ye fell down while touching his round belly, while Wu Yong and Hu Tao were still chewing slowly.

"Xiao Tao, why don't you try this dish? I made it specially for you."

Wu Yong found that Hutao had tasted all the dishes, but she had not touched the steaming boiled blackback seabass in the middle.

"It's okay. If you don't want to eat, don't eat. Just eat something else."

Wu Ye secretly held Hu Tao's left hand and said softly.

"It's okay, Grandpa, I really want to eat, but..."

Hu Nuo picked up a piece of fish and put it into her mouth. The taste was exactly the same as before. She said with red eyes:

"It's just a little spicy."

......

"Xiao Ye! When did you get together with Xiao Tao?! God has eyes! Let Xiao Tao fall in love with my Xiao Ye."

Wu Yong pulled Wu Ye out of the house and said happily.

While eating just now, Hu Tao suddenly cried, and Wu Yong was also a little panicked. When he didn't know how to comfort her, Hu Tao asked Wu Ye for a hug, and then she fell asleep, and Wu Ye carried her to his bed. calm.

"Grandpa, what are you saying? In your mind, am I, your grandson, a very bad person?"

Seeing Wu Ye's sad look, Wu Yong realized that he had said the wrong thing and hurriedly found an excuse to escape.

"I'm going to tell your parents the good news first. You can take good care of Xiao Tao at home."

"Wuhu!"

Seeing that his grandfather finally went out, the sadness on Wu Ye's face disappeared instantly, and then he burst into laughter.

"Jie Jie Jie, grandpa is not at home, and there is a beautiful girl sleeping at home. Let's see how I reveal the true nature of my braid!"

Having said that, when Wu Ye sat by the bed and looked at Hu Tao's cute sleeping face, he still couldn't bear it, so he stood aside silently, thinking about what he would write in his next book.

correct! He suddenly remembered that he didn't know how many copies of "White" had been sold. He should go to Yamoxuan tomorrow to ask, and by the way, he would like to thank Keqing for his help a few days ago. oh! I also asked people to repair Xiaolong's grave. These are all things I have to do and will be dealt with tomorrow.

The biggest disadvantage of procrastination is not delay, but that it will make you hesitate and even lose confidence. So no matter what you decide, do it immediately. This in itself can make people energetic and maintain an active and happy mood.

This sentence came from a writer named Shi in his previous life. Wu Ye remembered it clearly, so he warned himself not to delay things any longer.
