Li Yue felt that the atmosphere in the Mo family was not right. It did not seem like what Tang Xue had said and she wanted to bring Li Lu back.
However, Li Lu did not listen to Li Yue. She stood up and walked towards Jiang Yu. “You want us to stay for dinner? Sure.”
Jiang Yu smiled and said, “Sure, let’s stay for dinner.”
After everyone had taken their seats, Li Lu picked up a bite of an egg and spat it out.
Jiang Yu thought that she had scalded it and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Li Lu replied, “How can this be called a dish? It’s so disgusting!”
Li Yue scolded her, “Alright! This is someone else’s house. Watch your mouth!”
Li Lu immediately pretended to be aggrieved and said, “But I’m not wrong, right? Sister, can you eat such a disgusting dish?”
Li Yue said, “Shut up!”
Li Lu could only sit down with her mouth pursed. However, she looked at Jiang Yu with hatred in her eyes.
No one took this incident to heart. They were prepared to go somewhere else to relax after eating.
However, Li Lu did not pick up her chopsticks.
No one asked her why, so she kept getting angry at herself. It was only when Jiang Yu asked her, “Aren’t you going to eat?”
Li Lu looked at her from the corner of her eyes and said, “Why are you asking me? Who can eat such a terrible dish?”
Jiang Yu said, “Is it very terrible? But I think it’s pretty good.”
Li Lu said disdainfully, “You will definitely think that the dishes you cooked are pretty good.”
Jiang Yu said, “But other than you, everyone else is eating very well.”
“You!” Li Lu was blocked by Jiang Yu’s words. After a long while, she finally said, “If you don’t believe me, Ask Tang Xue. She also thinks it tastes bad!”
Tang Xue, who was eating quietly, was suddenly called out. She looked up with a blank expression and said, “It has nothing to do with me, right?”
Li Lu kept winking at her and said, “Don’t you think it tastes bad?”
Tang Xue pretended not to understand Li Lu’s gaze and said, “It’s not bad. It doesn’t taste bad.”
Seeing that Tang Xue was so uncooperative, Li Lu was instantly discouraged and said, “It just tastes bad!”
Mo Long, who had been silent all this time, said, “If it tastes bad, then go back to the Li family to eat.”
Li Yue’s hand that was eating paused. She raised her head and smiled. “It doesn’t taste bad. Lulu didn’t mean that. She’s just a little picky.”
She had already said that and was trying to smooth things over for Li Lu.
However, Li Lu didn’t seem to understand what Li Yue meant. Not only did she not follow the path she had given her, she even said even more harshly, “I’m not picky about my food. Jiang Yu’s food is bad to begin with! Our Li family’s aunt’s cooking is many times better than this!”
“Then go back.” Mo Long’s voice was a little cold and contained.
He was trying to contain his anger.
However, Li Lu was not afraid of him at all.
It was not only because Mo Long’s parents did not like Jiang Yu, but also because Elder Mo had not spoken up for Jiang Yu since the beginning.
It seemed that Jiang Yu had long fallen out of favor in the Mo family.
Thus, Li Lu became even more unscrupulous and said, “I’ll go back if I go back! But even if you chase me away, you can’t hide the fact that Jiang Yu’s cooking is terrible!”
Then, she said to Elder Mo, “Elder Mo, Look, your daughter-in-law can’t even cook the simplest meal, how can she be qualified to enter the Mo Family?”
Only then did Elder Mo bear to look at her and ask, “Do you know how to cook? Or does your sister know how to cook?”
Li Lu was stumped by the question and answered foolishly, “My sister and I don’t know how to cook…”
Elder Mo said, “If you guys don’t even know how to cook, then what are you talking about? That girl, Jiang Yu, knows how to cook. She’s already better than you guys.”
Li Lu did not expect Elder Mo to speak up for Jiang Yu.
She said in disbelief, “Grandfather Mo, what are you talking about… isn’t it very normal for a girl from the countryside to know how to cook?”
“You keep saying ‘from the countryside’, what do you mean by that?” Elder Mo’s eyes darkened as he said, “Could it be that the Mo family is an amazing existence?”
Li Lu was speechless.
Wasn’t the Mo family an existence at the peak of the world? Not to mention those unknown businessmen, even those businessmen who were ranked on the top of the business circle, which one of them didn’t try their best to cooperate with the Mo Family?
And those young ladies, which one of them didn’t want to marry into the Mo Family?
How could Elder Mo calmly say something like “The Mo family is not a great existence”?
