Chapter 1730 Don't you already know how I like to eat?
Uncle Lin nodded: "I just got back."
Jiang Cheng raised an eyebrow and asked, "What about my dad?"
Uncle Lin's smile faltered for a moment, and he quickly stepped forward, explaining with a hint of caution in his voice.
"Young Master had to give birth to him... He really couldn't find the time to come back. This time, only Madam came back to spend Qingming Festival with the old master."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Cheng didn't ask any further questions, but simply gave a faint "hmm".
He walked towards the main hall and said, "Okay, I'll go see my mom."
As soon as I crossed the courtyard and reached the entrance of the main hall, I heard my grandfather's gentle voice coming from inside.
With a hint of concern, she asked, "Is your dad feeling any better lately? I was worried his old ailment would flare up again."
Jiang Cheng paused subconsciously, just as he heard his mother Li Yan's cheerful voice.
In a light tone, he said, "Dad, don't worry, my dad is much better. He was just telling me yesterday that he would come to the courtyard to have tea and chat with you as soon as he could come down from Fragrant Hills in a little over a month, so you don't have to worry about him."
"Your brother isn't back either, is he?"
"No, it's too far. A flight takes more than ten hours, which is too time-consuming."
"Yes, he's been gone for two years. I'll try to get him transferred back next year. Your dad's health isn't good either, and he's been worried about him being away."
Upon hearing this, Li Yan immediately nodded: "Dad, I'll do whatever you say. Your arrangements are definitely correct."
Grandpa laughed heartily: "You've been a lovable child since you were little."
Jiang Chenghong chimed in, "That's right. Xiaoyan is good to Jianming. She's a virtuous wife and loving mother, taking such good care of the family. No wonder you have Jianming completely under your thumb."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Cheng silently complained to himself.
The phrase "perfectly controlled" is true, but based on my own impressions from childhood, describing my mother as a "virtuous wife and loving mother" would be an exaggeration.
I can only say that I grew to such a tall size purely because I was able to grow.
Otherwise, given my mother's cooking skills, I'd be lucky if I didn't starve.
However, because of this, I developed the good habit of not being a picky eater.
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Cheng walked in.
"Grandpa, Second Grandpa, Mom."
Seeing him come in, the great-grandfather looked up and smiled: "You're back?"
Jiang Cheng nodded and then glanced at his mother with a grin.
Logically speaking, someone like her, who has never experienced hardship, should be living in the mountains of Niuma District for a period of time, especially during the winter.
Although the conditions were certainly not that bad, I was definitely still feeling a bit unwell.
However, upon closer inspection, Li Yan looked quite well, with no noticeable difference from before she arrived.
This is probably because Li Yan carries not only the beautiful wishes of her Mid-Autumn Festival wishing card.
Perhaps it's also because of the results of using the anti-aging card she received on her.
"Mom, why didn't you tell me you were coming back..." Jiang Cheng asked with a grin.
Li Yan glanced at Jiang Cheng: "Why should I tell you? If I told you, would you wait for me at home?"
Jiang Cheng chuckled, still hearing his mother's familiar sarcastic tone: "Of course! What about the local specialties my dad promised to bring me?"
Li Yan rolled her eyes at Jiang Cheng, then gestured towards the table with her chin: "Here, everything is placed over there. The cordyceps are for Dad and Second Uncle to nourish their bodies, the yak meat and butter tea are for you to drink, and you can also try some Tibetan incense. It smells quite nice when it's lit. Your dad lights one when he's feeling down to calm himself down."
This is my mom. When I sent her a WeChat message asking her to bring back some local specialties, she said she was going there for work, not for tourism.
In the blink of an eye, I've brought back so much stuff.
Not long after they sat down, they saw that their mother and grandfather were talking about Jiang Jianming's affairs in Niuma District.
Including the tourism policies he implemented locally after his visit,
After listening for only a few words, Jiang Cheng went back to his room and started scrolling through his phone.
After all, children shouldn't meddle in adults' affairs.
I have already taken over my father's construction company. For my father, who is now in the field he has entered, his forties are the age when he should be working hard.
As the saying goes, it's better to provoke the parents than the child.
After returning to his room, Jiang Cheng immediately lay down on the bed and started scrolling through his phone.
The first thing I saw when I opened my WeChat Moments was a post from Qiao Yinyin showing her live stream.
Jiang Cheng was stunned for a moment after clicking in.
I stared at the screen for two seconds, my fingertips unconsciously stroking the phone case.
Qiao Yinyin is actually doing a live stream with Bai Xiaoxiao?!
Neither of them saw Jiang Cheng when he went in.
After all, this is Douyin (TikTok), not a live stream about making babies laugh.
On Douyu, Jiang Cheng's account has reached level 65.
This account already had cool special effects when it entered the live stream.
The anchors should have stood up and handed over the privileges long ago.
However, Jiang Cheng's account on Douyin is a blank slate.
Not only was there no special entrance animation, but this account didn't even have a fan light stick.
The barrage of comments was scrolling by incredibly fast, and Jiang Cheng's ID blended in without even making a ripple.
At this time, Qiao Yinyin's live stream had over 10 viewers.
Jiang Cheng glanced at it; her live stream was taking place in the apartment he had bought for her.
Qiao Yinyin was slowly frying ham sausages in a frying pan.
Meanwhile, Bai Xiaoxiao was clearly playing a mobile game on her phone.
The two occasionally glanced at the comments section that appeared on the public chat.
They specifically chose to respond to IDs displaying light sticks.
After all, the level of the light stick can indicate whether or not someone pays attention to her.
Completely unaware of Jiang Cheng, the "new audience member," lurking in the corner.
Qiao Yinyin, holding a spatula, asked the camera, "There are many ways to eat this sausage, do you know the best way to eat it?"
This question immediately sparked a flurry of comments in the comment section.
"Just put it in your mouth and eat it directly. I like to eat it raw."
"Aren't you being fried right now?? Song Hye-kyo, are you stupid??"
"The one who said to eat it raw, step forward. This sausage is clearly refrigerated. You should heat it up before eating it."
"Upstairs, the topic you're discussing is clearly not the same as his."
Seeing that some comments in the comment section were suggestive, Qiao Yinyin simply ignored them.
Then, in a serious tone, he asked Bai Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, how do you usually like to eat sausage?"
Although this was her first time doing a live stream with Qiao Yinyin.
However, during the time Jiang Cheng was away, she would occasionally go shopping with Qiao Yinyin.
So the awkward situation between the two of them was gone.
Bai Xiaoxiao glanced at Qiao Yinyin's teasing eyes and replied with a smile, "Don't you already know how I like to eat?"
