The ingredients she bought were put into the kitchen first, and Xia Nuannuan washed some fruits and cut them into a platter.
After everyone sat down in the living room, they ate fruit and chatted.
Xia Nuannuan smiled and told her parents about things in college.
He talked about how everyone in the dormitory was very nice, and talked about which canteen served delicious food, and how fulfilling the classes were every day, etc.
Xia Zhengping and his wife were relieved to see their daughter in such high spirits, but at the same time they felt a little bit disappointed.
The daughter who once seldom talked about her school life to them now no longer needs to deliberately hide those troubles.
My daughter has really grown up and is able to handle the interpersonal relationships around her. She can also enjoy college life happily and no longer has to hide under their wings.
Unknowingly, the sky outside gradually became darker.
"Ah, it's already so late, I have to go cook."
Su Xia picked up her phone and looked at the time, then hurriedly spoke.
"Auntie, let me come!"
Qin Tian smiled and recommended himself, stood up and said, "You and Nuannuan can continue chatting, I'll go cook."
Xia Zhengping and his wife were stunned for a moment.
"No, no, there's no point in asking you to cook, I'll do it!"
Su Xia hurriedly stood up and said.
"Auntie, I have always eaten your cooking before. Let me do it today. Don't worry, my cooking skills are pretty good."
Qin Tian smiled confidently.
"This is not about whether your cooking skills are good or not. I heard Nuannuan say that your cooking is delicious, but this is not appropriate."
"Auntie, I don't think of myself as an outsider anymore, why are you still so outsider?"
"this……"
Su Xia was speechless for a moment.
Xia Zhengping quietly rolled his eyelids, gaining a new understanding of Qin Tian's shamelessness.
"Mom, let my brother do it!"
Xia Nuannuan opened her mouth to help with a smile.
"elder brother?"
Xia Zhengping and his wife were both stunned and looked at her in shock.
Xia Nuannuan was stunned for a moment, then her face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye, and she lowered her head shyly.
Xia Zhengping and his wife looked at each other in astonishment, their expressions becoming a little strange.
Of course, the two of them guessed that this was a term of endearment between young lovers, but they were a little uncomfortable with it.
Well, I’m not used to it!
Su Xia was okay, she just felt a little bit unbearable.
Lao Xia was in a more complicated mood and glanced at Qin Tian with sharp eyes.
In his opinion, it is definitely this brat's little hobby.
Men are all the same.
He was no exception. When he was intimate with his wife, his wife, who usually called him "Lao Xia", would suddenly call her "husband" as gently as water, and he would be elated and in high spirits.
"Um...I'm going to cook."
Qin Tian realized the danger, decisively said a word, turned around and hurried towards the kitchen as if running away.
"Nuan Nuan, did Xiao Qin ask you to call him that?"
Su Xia had a narrow smile on her face, looked at her daughter and asked.
"No, it's not."
Xia Nuannuan hurriedly shook her head and said: "It's my own idea, and my roommate in the dormitory helped me come up with the idea."
As for Qin Tian who brought it up first, of course she wouldn't say anything about it.
"Well, your roommate is quite interesting!"
Su Xia looked at her husband funny.
Of course, the two of them knew it wouldn't be that simple, but they didn't ask any more questions.
Xia Nuannuan breathed a sigh of relief and forcibly changed the topic.
"Mom, what have you been doing at home lately? Do you miss me very much?"
"I miss you so much. Without you, father and daughter, I would play cards and go shopping by myself every day. I don't even have to cook. I don't know how comfortable I would be."
"Tch...you know how to lie."
…
…
After a while, Su Xia went into the kitchen to help.
After praising Qin Tian's cooking skills, Su Xia chatted with him about household matters while helping.
Qin Tian no longer felt any restraint in front of this gentle and virtuous future mother-in-law, and he chatted casually with her as his most respected elder.
"By the way, Auntie, how is my mother doing lately?"
"Okay, I see, your mother wants to be a strong woman. The business in the store is getting better and better. She is very busy every day, but she still enjoys it."
"Is it?"
"Yes, I go to the store every now and then to help her. I originally wanted to take her shopping and playing cards, but she turned out to be so busy that she didn't have time. No, I'm really a little bored, so I came over to see you."
"It's true, I told her not to tire herself too much."
Qin Tian cut the vegetables skillfully and shook his head with a wry smile.
"Your mother may also be thinking about your future. I would say it is completely unnecessary. With your ability and talent, there is no need for her to be so busy."
Su Xia helped pick vegetables and said with a smile.
"You still see through it."
"But, that's what I said, but if I were your mother, I would probably do the same thing."
"Um!"
Qin Tian thought about his mother who had been working hard for him in his past life and this life, and his heart felt warm.
He decided that this time he would go back and let his mother take a look at his investment account, and once again prove his ability to make money, so that she would stop being so tired and enjoy life more.
"The National Day is coming soon, go back and spend more time with your mother!"
"knew."
Soon, with the busy work of Chef Qin, a sumptuous dinner was put together.
In the middle of the table is the steaming hairy crab that has just been steamed.
Next to it is the roast duck that has been cut up and reheated, and in the middle is a large plate of boiled shrimp with dipping sauce, and beef stir-fried with chili.
Outside, there are several other dishes with meat and vegetables, as well as stewed corn ribs soup.
"Xiao Qin, your cooking skills are really good!"
After Lao Xia sat down at the main table, he looked at the delicious dishes on the table and praised them with surprise.
"A little worse than Auntie."
Qin Tian smiled modestly.
"Xiao Qin, this is no worse than what I did. It's not good to be too modest!"
Su Xia said with a faint smile.
"Hehe... Mom is right, brother... Brother Tian, what you made is too rich."
Xia Nuannuan agreed with a bright smile.
Qin Tian stopped being modest and accepted the compliment calmly. He looked at Xia Zhengping and asked, "Uncle, can I have a drink with you?"
"Okay! With such a good dish, you need to drink some. I'll get the wine later."
Xia Zhengping nodded with a smile, got up and headed towards the bedroom.
After a while, Lao Xia brought a bottle of Maotai and a bottle of fine red wine.
"Xiao Qin, you and I will drink white wine. Nuannuan, you and your mother will see if you want to drink some of this red wine. The alcohol content is not high!"
"Okay, Mom, I'll have a drink with you too."
Xia Nuannuan said to her mother with crooked eyebrows.
"OK!"
Su Xia nodded in agreement with a smile on her face.
After opening the two bottles of wine, Qin Tian and Xia Nuannuan helped pour the wine respectively.
"Come, come, let's have a drink together and thank Xiao Qin for cooking this table of dishes!"
Lao Xia said with a smile and a toast.
"cheers!!"
After sharing a drink, everyone began to enjoy the meal.
Qin Tian peeled off a hairy crab, removed the inedible part, and put it naturally into Xia Nuannuan's bowl.
"this is for you."
Xia Nuannuan reciprocated the favor and gave him a peeled prawn with a sweet smile.
Xia Zhengping and his wife looked at this scene and smiled helplessly.
They used to occasionally show affection in front of their daughter, but they didn't expect it would be their turn so soon.
