Chapter 770: Chapter 770: Offering Support (3rd Update)

Jin Yu’s eyes went wide as soon as he heard Sister-in-law Du’s words.

He finally understood why his wife and that woman across from him were staring at him while he was eating the dish.

Thinking about how Xu Niannian had asked him how the taste was, and he had actually said it was not bad, Jin Yu suddenly looked towards Xiao Bao across from him.

Xiao Bao glanced at him cutely with a pout.

Jin Yu immediately found his backbone and reached out his hands to Xiao Bao: "Come, daddy will hold you."

Holding his delicate little son, he hoped his wife would be merciful.

Xiao Bao obediently stretched out his hands towards him.

Jin Yu immediately breathed a sigh of relief and tightly hugged Xiao Bao to his chest.

This was his amulet.

Xiao Bao’s head was held by Jin Yu’s palm, his plump little face pressed against Jin Yu’s chest, almost unable to breathe.

"Don’t hold the child like that," Xu Niannian reminded him.

Jin Yu gave a glance and quickly relaxed his grip.

Seeing Jin Yu proactively holding the child, a group of sisters-in-law began to praise Jin Yu again, saying that Xu Niannian had found a good man—a man who understood consideration.

Jin Yu was praised until he felt guilty.

Sister-in-law Du was genuinely puzzled—what was wrong with these old ladies?

Didn’t they know that today’s purpose was to set Ji Ruhua up with these bratty boys?

If they didn’t bring the topic around to her soon, why were they bothering to tease Jin Yu and his wife?

Sister-in-law Du had forgotten that she had just been one of the teasers.

The other sisters-in-law were reluctant to turn the conversation to Ji Ruhua because they could see the little crush Ji Ruhua had on Jin Yu.

Sister-in-law Du hurriedly urged everyone to eat the dishes made by Ji Ruhua, continuously singing Ji Ruhua’s praises.

"Xiao Ji’s cooking is truly unmatched. I’ve never eaten such delicious food," she said.

The other few sisters-in-law just smiled with pursed lips, not offending anyone, but not joining in the praise either.

However, the men, completely oblivious to the undercurrents in the room, laughed heartily and praised the food.

"Sister-in-law is right—it’s delicious, so delicious. I haven’t eaten such tasty food since I came out of my mother’s womb," one of them said.

Engrossed in Jin Yu’s comment about her cooking being not too bad, Ji Ruhua’s face beamed brighter with smiles upon hearing the men’s praises.

"You all are just making fun of me. I just made a few home-cooked dishes; they can’t compare with what the sisters-in-law make," she replied.

"Ah, you’re too modest. I also think your dishes are delicious. It’s my first time eating something so tasty," another chimed in.

Sister-in-law Du gave Ji Ruhua special face, mainly because the dishes Ji Ruhua made were indeed tasty.

But then someone had to be insensitive to the mood.

The insensitive person, Jin Yu: "Hey, sister-in-law, you’re out of touch. I’ll have my wife cook for you all sometime; her cooking is incomparable to this."

Insensitive person number two, Ye Shaoting: "Jin Yu, are you serious?"

He turned his head to look at Xu Niannian, his eyes shining bright: "Niannian, how good is our relationship?"

Xu Niannian: "..."

Too flattering.

Just for that flattery, Xu Niannian owed it to him to provide an extra meal: "Brother Ye, you’re Jin Yu’s friend, so naturally, you’re my friend too," she said.

Brother Ye?

Jin Yu raised an eyebrow, unhappy with this ghostly nickname, thinking ’troublemaker Ye’ would be much more appropriate.

Xu Niannian had no intentions of showing off with a few dishes like Ji Ruhua, but since her dear Jin Yu had personally given her the opportunity to put the other in her place, she had to rise to it.

But she also didn’t want to upset Sister-in-law Du, so she said with a smile, "I’ve been at the base for several days and haven’t had the chance to invite all the sisters-in-law and brothers over. Tomorrow I’ll be the host, and I hope you won’t think any less of me."
