Transmigration: From Dragon Princess To Pampered Granddaughter -
Chapter 373 - 374: Considering the Occasion
Chapter 373: Chapter 374: Considering the Occasion
The granddaughter is a bit picky with food, but fortunately, she doesn’t force herself to eat the things she dislikes, thus avoiding wasting food.
Gu Siyu hesitated for a moment. She didn’t really like pig’s trotters, finding them somewhat greasy.
But seeing that plump girl relishing her large bite so much, she couldn’t help but swallow her saliva and nod: "Yes, thank you, Grandpa!"
Old Master Gu then happily took a piece of pig’s trotter for her.
Children should eat just like Guibao does, everything without a fuss, and only by eating heartily and becoming chubby can one be truly blessed.
Gu Siyu looked at the oily pig’s trotter, but couldn’t bring herself to eat it with her hands like Helian Qiao did. She traced her bowl on the table.
Mr. and Mrs. Gu Qingyun were happy to watch, as their daughter had always shown less liking for meat, especially fatty meat.
Now things were better: having Guibao to keep company, she would eat enough at every meal and even stopped being picky about food.
If only Guibao could constantly dine with their daughter, they wouldn’t be worried about their daughter’s eating problems.
Finally, Old Master Gu served a pig’s trotter to Gu Tingyun, the birthday boy, saying: "Tingyun, you need to eat more as well."
"Thank you, Grandpa."
The young master Gu didn’t care about who was served first at all. As an older brother, he should yield to his sister in these matters.
In no time, all the dishes were served. There were ten dishes, plus a pot of large bone soup.
Five meat dishes: braised lamb, braised pig’s trotter, braised fish, and ham stir-fried with chili, and a bowl of egg soup.
The five vegetarian dishes were also stir-fried until they shined with oil. They were much more delicious than the dishes they made at home.
And each dish was a great portion, enough for everyone to eat their fill.
The staple food was a mix of corn and rice, each grain full and brimming with the aroma of rice and corn.
The people from the Chen Family believed that even if they didn’t have the dishes, they would be more than willing to eat the rice alone.
"Let’s eat." Old Master Gu picked up his chopsticks and beckoned everyone to eat.
Seeing the elders at the next table had started to eat, everyone couldn’t wait to dig in.
However, they all considered the occasion, and seeing the Gu Family eating so elegantly, the Chen Family didn’t dare to scramble for food as they did at home.
Moreover, the meat was abundant. There was no need to scramble for it.
Only Li Chunhua was desperately stuffing meat into Chen Xiaobao’s bowl. She ate with oil smeared all over her mouth, gobbling up food like a starving ghost, quite an unsightly sight.
"What are you rushing for?! There’s plenty of meat!" Chen Jianye frowned at the sight, lowering his voice to scold her.
He felt so embarrassed!
Everyone wasn’t rushing for food, but she was, without any restraint.
Li Chunhua retorted in a low voice, quite justified: "We brought so many gifts, if we don’t eat more, it won’t be worth it! Moreover, everyone present is family, there’s nothing to be embarrassed about!"
Zhou Zhaodi rolled his eyes at these words. He was glad Guibao was adopted by his fourth brother. Otherwise, with a mother like Chunhua, it would be a disgrace.
But she also didn’t pause while eating, understanding that opportunities to eat meat to her heart’s content were rare.
At the main table, Ma Xiulian and Chen Dazhu were eating big bites deliciously, but with good table manners.
The Gu Family saw this and couldn’t help but have their appetites stimulated, eating quite a bit themselves.
They now understood where Guibao got his good appetite from. It was indeed, hereditary!
After eating and drinking to their heart’s content, Gu Tingyun stood up from his seat: "Guibao, let’s go wash our hands."
"Oh!"
Guibao, raising her oily little hands, hopped down from the stool. Her chubby little face jiggled along, making Song Wennuan itch to pinch her cheeks.
