Chapter 657 Xue Yang's joke went too far
"Just wait and see, it'll be so delicious it'll make your mouth water."
"Then I'll be waiting."
After Song Zhizhi finished speaking, she walked over and sat down on the chair next to Xu Zhiyi.
The others, watching the two bickering, all smiled knowingly.
Mo Erhan, Cheng Sino, Mo Erchen, Xu Zhiyi, Cheng Sihan, including the two rich young masters, all noticed that although the two were sharp-tongued, they actually seemed very close.
"Huo Yu, do you think spring is coming to Helian City?"
A young man named Xue Yang winked and said with a gossipy look on his face.
"That's kind of the vibe. Maybe Young Master He's playboy ways are about to blossom."
Huo Yu also had a mischievous grin on his face.
"You all need to be more confident. Remove the 'whether' and 'maybe' from your minds. Helian Cheng is about to blossom."
Melham looked completely certain.
Based on his limited experience of falling in love with his wife Cheng Sinuo through arguments and disagreements, it seems that Helian Cheng and Song Zhizhi will be together, just like the others before them.
"Honey, this scene looks familiar."
Cheng Sinuo stared wide-eyed and asked blankly.
"Silly wife, what are you thinking about when you see them?"
Melham reminded him.
"Just like we used to be, we started by arguing and disliking each other, but later..."
Cheng Sinuo suddenly realized that this was just like what had happened between her and Mo Erhan before.
It seems that Song Zhizhi and her older brother are indeed not meant to be; it's impossible for them to be together.
“You…you’re all talking nonsense. I don’t think much of that spoiled brat.”
Song Zhizhi blushed with embarrassment at everyone's comments.
After she met Helian Cheng, it was like Mars colliding with Earth; they couldn't stand each other, so how could they possibly be together?
However, seeing Helian Cheng so focused on his work and grilling the barbecue today, I felt a little itch to try it myself. Why is that?
She stood up angrily and walked over to Helian Cheng.
"Get out of the way, young lady. It smells like smoke here. Don't get choked and dirty your dress. Just wait to eat!"
Helian Cheng's tone seemed impatient, but if you listened carefully, there was also a hint of concern.
“They’re talking badly about me, but I won’t go there. I’ll help you.”
After Song Zhizhi finished speaking, she rolled up the sleeves of her skirt and began to help Helian Cheng arrange the skewers.
"Hey, this is interesting! Doesn't this scene look like a couple cooking at home?"
Xue Yang deliberately spoke loudly.
"Eat up, even barbecue can't shut you up."
Helian Cheng picked up a skewer of grilled meat, walked over, and quickly stuffed it into Xue Yang's mouth.
"It's hot! It's burning me! Helian Cheng, are you trying to burn me to death?"
Xue Yang hurriedly spat out the skewers, grabbed the wine next to him, and drank it all in one gulp.
"Who told you to be so foul-mouthed? You can talk about me all you want, I'm a spoiled brat and I'm used to being insulted. But you can't talk about Miss Song, she's still a pure and innocent young lady."
Helian Cheng's tone was full of blame.
Although he was a playboy, he wasn't the type to insult good girls at will.
Over the years, he only appeared to be a playboy; in reality, nothing actually happened between him and those girls.
It was all because his stepmother deliberately spoiled him into being a spoiled brat, trying to pave the way for her son.
When he was little, he didn't understand that his stepmother was deliberately praising him to death; he thought his stepmother was very good to him.
Now that he's grown up, he understands that his stepmother did it on purpose.
They wanted to spoil him, but he couldn't get his father's approval, so they wouldn't hand over the He Group to him.
Fortunately, his father, He Jindong, was not a fool. He firmly believed that his son was just playful and kept the position of He Group heir for him.
Since Mo Erchen met Xu Zhiyi and got married, he has also begun to wake up and change.
"Alright, Liancheng, I won't joke around with you guys anymore."
Xue Yang realized he had gone too far with his joke when he saw that Helian Cheng had really turned hostile.
He apologized immediately.
He and Helian Cheng grew up together, so he naturally knew about his family situation. He also knew that his stepmother was a terrible person.
Helian Cheng has changed a lot recently, and he understands that Helian Cheng is trying to change himself, take control of the He Group, and not give his stepmother's son a chance.
Fortunately, Uncle He always believed in Helian Cheng, and Helian Jue, the eldest cousin of the He family, also treated Helian Cheng very well and helped him.
"Liancheng, how much longer until it's done? I'm starving."
Mo Erchen also realized that his friend was no longer as unruly and dissolute as before; he was starting to change for the better.
Mo Erchen changed the subject, not wanting to embarrass Helian Cheng.
"It'll be soon, they're helping too."
Helian Cheng pointed to two Mo family chefs who were busy at another oven.
Before long, the fragrant barbecue was ready.
A group of people gathered around the grill and began drinking and eating meat.
The fragrance wafted through the back garden, attracting the servants who were working there, making them drool.
"Uncle Zhang, Uncle Chen, you've been working hard for a long time. Take a break and have some barbecue!"
Xu Zhiyi called over the two chefs.
"Second Young Madam, we..."
"We don't need to, right? You guys can continue eating."
The two chefs dared not overstep their bounds.
"It's alright, Uncle Zhang, there are plenty of skewers, we can't finish them all. Take some with you and share them with the workers!"
Xu Zhiyi has always been approachable. Even after becoming the second young mistress of the Mo family, she never puts on airs and treats the servants very well.
"Thank you, Madam Second Young Master."
Chef Zhang and Chef Chen were filled with gratitude.
"You're welcome. Take some skewers and invite the workers in your household to eat."
"it is good."
The two chefs agreed, picked out some inexpensive ingredients, and took them to the servants' quarters.
After Mu Qianqian and Xu Yali finished their meal, they thought of bringing some fruit to the children. Just as they reached the entrance to the back garden, they overheard Xu Zhiyi's conversation with the chef.
A slight smile curved her lips.
This second daughter-in-law is gentle, obedient, kind-hearted, and treats the servants very well. It seems that she has a worthy successor as the matriarch of the Mo family.
"Kids, if you're tired of barbecue skewers, have some fruit instead."
Mu Qianqian called out, picked up the fruit plate, and walked over.
She specially placed the durian, which was Xu Zhiyi's favorite food, on her plate.
"Thank you, Mom."
"Thank you, Auntie. Please have some too. My barbecue seasoning is delicious and healthy."
Helian Cheng was just happy to have been praised by everyone for his delicious seasoning, and when he saw Mu Qianqian, he wanted to show off.
"You guys eat slowly, I'm not going to eat anymore, my stomach can't take it because I'm too old."
Mu Qianqian declined.
Cheng Sinuo picked up a piece of grilled tofu covered with pickled vegetables and scallions and fed it to Mu Qianqian.
"Mom, the seasonings that Young Master He makes are really delicious, especially this dried tofu. You should try it."
"this…"
Mu Qianqian looked at the greasy dried tofu covered in pickled vegetables and didn't want to open her mouth.
"Mom, it's not greasy or spicy at all, and the dried tofu is a vegetarian dish, so it won't upset your stomach."
Seeing how enthusiastic her eldest daughter-in-law was, Mu Qianqian opened her mouth and took a bite.
Then her eyes lit up.
