Chapter 659 After-dinner chat

Wang's father hurried back to the kitchen. He had put a lot of thought into preparing this lunch.

Wang Manni rarely comes back once a year, so naturally she has to prepare dishes that her daughter likes. Knowing that Gu Yu is coming, she also specifically asked Wang Manni about Gu Yu's preferences.

The Queen Mother took the gift and led Wang Manni and Gu Yu through the yard. Wang Manni's house was on the second floor of the two-story building facing the gate.

There is a small bungalow on the left side of the first floor courtyard as you enter the door. It is also theirs and is used as a kitchen and dining room.

It was lunch time. Facing the curious gazes of the neighbors, Gu Yu remained calm, smiling and nodding.

Just by looking at his clothes and temperament, the neighbors could sense that Gu Yu was extraordinary.

The king's father and mother had naturally asked their daughter what kind of boyfriend she was dating.

Wang Manni tried to keep a low profile and said that she was an outsider who came to Shanghai to develop her business and opened a venture capital company. She didn't dare to say how much she was worth.

She only said that she had a house and a car. She had a video chat with her parents before, and Wang's father and mother also saw the villa where Wang Manni currently lived.

They knew that Gu Yu was well off, but they didn't know how well off he was. They also had no specific knowledge of the housing prices in Shanghai.

Under Wang Manni's deliberate guidance and concealment, she thought Gu Yu opened a small company and was worth tens of millions.

Even so, Wang's father and mother thought the conditions were very good. In addition, Gu Yu's appearance and height were three years younger than Wang Manni.

The king's father and mother couldn't help but worry whether Gu Yu wanted to have a relationship with the intention of getting married or was just playing around.

Because it was only two or three months since they met and confirmed their relationship, the king's father and mother didn't want to say too much or ask too many questions.

It wasn't until Wang Manni said that Gu Yu would accompany her back to her hometown before the New Year that Wang's father and mother felt a lot more reliable.

"Xiao Yu, our house is not big and old. Usually, it's just me and Nini's dad living here. We haven't cleaned it up much, so you just have to make do with it these days."

Gu Yu had just put away his luggage when he heard the Queen Mother's polite words.

"Auntie, what are you talking about? I can tell from the layout and design that you have good taste and vision.

Manni told me that it was you who came up with the idea for the renovation. People nearby who wanted to renovate their houses would come to visit and learn from you. Her classmates and friends were reluctant to go home when they came to visit.

I liked it as soon as I came in. It was warm and had a homely feel.

You may not know that in Shanghai, a house with three bedrooms and two living rooms and more than 100 square meters is already very big."

It was the first time for Gu Yu to visit and meet her for the first time. He was not shy at all. He smiled and praised her. His exaggerated tone made the Queen Mother smile.

The new son-in-law who is good at speaking gets one more point in the heart of his mother-in-law.

Wang Manni was happy with Gu Yu's attitude and performance. Although she accepted her fate and followed Gu Yu without a legitimate status, she was naturally happy that Gu Yu treated her parents with respect as real father-in-law and mother-in-law. She looked at Gu Yu with eyes full of love.

"I just put it on randomly. There are many people coming to our house to see it. Let's go, wash our hands and eat. Nini's dad should have finished it."

After just a short while of entering the room, the Queen Mother's impression of Gu Yu improved dramatically. He was polite, well-spoken, and friendly.

He happily agreed and invited Gu Yu to go to the first floor.

"Xiao Yu, eat more. This fish head and braised pork are Nini's father's specialties, and this duck head and duck wings are our local specialties. You can try them too. Don't be shy. Treat them as your own."

Looking at Gu Yu's sunny and handsome image, the Queen Mother liked him more and more, and became more enthusiastic. She took the initiative to put half a duck head in Gu Yu's bowl.

"Mom, do you have disposable gloves? This duck head is hard to chew. Don't give it to him. It will be inconvenient for him to eat other dishes."

Before Gu Yu could speak, Wang Manni frowned slightly and said with a little dissatisfaction,

"No, no, it's not that particular. I finished it in two or three bites. It smells so good and tastes so good!"

Gu Yu smiled and waved his hand. As soon as Wang Manni finished speaking, Wang's father wanted to get up and find disposable gloves, but was stopped by Gu Yu. Before he finished speaking, he started to eat the duck head leisurely.

"Xiaoyu knows how to eat. This duck head is stewed until it's soft and tender. It's not a big deal."

Seeing this, the Queen Mother smiled and said, glancing at her daughter with pride.

Wang Manni snorted lightly and said nothing more. She also picked up a duck head to accompany Gu Yu. The atmosphere at the dinner table became more casual and natural.

The father looked back and forth between his daughter and Gu Yu, feeling a little emotional.

Since entering the house, Wang Manni has never left Gu Yu's side, always caring for him, worried that he might not be able to adapt.

His own little cotton-padded jacket was indeed worn by someone else, but seeing the joy in his daughter's eyes and expression, Wang's father had no complaints. As long as his daughter was happy,

"Xiaoyu, stay a few more days now. Don't leave in a hurry. Let Manni take you around the area and experience the scenery of the Jiangnan water town."

After lunch, Wang Manni helped Wang's father clean up the dishes, while Wang's mother took Gu Yu to the yard to bask in the sun and chat.

It can be seen that the Queen Mother is the boss of the family, and she doesn't do much housework.

Wang Manni has a very outstanding face and figure, which is basically inherited from her mother,

Wang Manni said that there were many people chasing her mother at the beginning, but she finally chose Wang's father because, firstly, he worked in a government unit and had a stable job, and secondly, he was a down-to-earth person with a gentle personality and caring for others.

Since the Queen Mother married the King Father, she was spoiled and never asked to light the fire, cook, or wash dishes. However, as a grown-up daughter, she still had to help with the housework.

"How did you and Manni meet? What kind of fate is it in this vast sea of ​​people?"

When we were eating before, the neighbors didn't come to disturb us, but now they all gathered around, and the small yard was full of people.

The first person to bring up the topic was a daughter-in-law who was about the same age as Wang Manni and Gu Yu. Although they were of similar age, the other one was already a mother, and her child was in the last year of kindergarten.

"Manni works in a shopping mall next to my residence. I took my sister to buy clothes and she was the one who received me.

I wanted to buy a handbag for an elder, so I asked her for help," Gu Yu said with a faint smile on his face, without putting on airs.

"I know the store where Manni works. It's Givenchy, a high-end luxury brand. The things there cost thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands. They are very expensive."

An old lady interrupted and made a comment, which attracted the others to gasp in amazement and discuss quietly.

"It's fate, Xiao Gu. You seem to be quite young. What do you do in Shanghai? Where do you work?" Another middle-aged woman took up the question.

"Venture capital provides financing for some corporate projects, small-scale operations, and self-employed businesses,"

"Is that Porsche at the end of the alley your car? It cost more than a million yuan?" the husband of the young wife who spoke earlier asked curiously.

"I bought it for Manni. The whole process cost almost two million."

Gu Yu spoke calmly. The two million yuan car sounded like a Wuling Hongguang.

The other people in the yard were surprised. They had asked Wang's father and mother about the conditions of Wang Manni's boyfriend before, and they were half-believing and half-doubting. Now it seems that she has really caught a rich son-in-law.

The Queen Mother said nothing, but her inner pride was revealed on the corners of her mouth. She had listened to her daughter's gossips over the years, and now she finally vented her anger.
