Daddy, Come Home For Dinner!
Chapter 1089: But He Knows Zhao Gushen
Chapter 1089: Chapter 1089: But He Knows Zhao Gushen
"Xiao Mo must have promised his fourth uncle something. Like not calling both godmother and fourth grandpa at the same time." Zhao Gushen guessed absolutely right.
"So, since Xiao Mo just called her godmother, he can’t call him fourth grandpa again. Just simply call him..." Dad his fourth uncle.
Zhao Gushen glanced at the little guy.
Really, this kid can come up with all sorts of things.
At the same time, Zhao Gushen looked at Zhao Dingli with sympathy.
Zhao Dingli still doesn’t quite understand the little guy.
Is it easy to negotiate with this kid?
Thinking the little one agreed so easily, they could relax.
But who knew they still stepped into a trap.
Tsk tsk.
It’s really quite pitiful.
Zhao Dingli: "..."
That sympathetic look from Zhao Gushen, it’s really striking!
Do they not see who’s raising this troublesome little one?
Surely it’s Zhao Gushen’s own son, isn’t it?
Zhao Yumo is clearly just like his dad!
Ye Fei nodded, and with Zhao Gushen’s explanation, she immediately understood and found it quite reasonable.
Yet at the same time, she still found it a bit indescribable.
What mindset does Zhao Gushen have in thinking Zhao Dingli is petty?
Why doesn’t he take a look at himself?
Having lived with Zhao Gushen for a while, Ye Fei finally knows Zhao Gushen is petty.
It’s not just the employees at Changping who know this now.
The confusion resolved.
Ye Fei promptly introduced, "Uncle, Aunt."
"I’ve been wanting to bring Gushen over for you to meet," Ye Fei laughed, "This is my husband, Zhao Gushen."
"Uncle, Aunt." Zhao Gushen echoed Ye Fei.
His attitude was very sincere, showing genuine respect for Mr. and Mrs. Li.
Usually, Ye Fei and the little one have often told him about how Mr. and Mrs. Li cared for the little one as if he were their own grandson.
The little one’s reaction to Mr. and Mrs. Li just now said it all.
Though the little one speaks sweetly, he’s not sweet-talking to just anyone.
Only those he acknowledges get the sweet words.
Like the elders of the Zhao Family, like Mr. and Mrs. Li.
Even with Zhao Gushen, at first when he hadn’t been acknowledged, the little one guarded against him tightly.
Zhao Gushen knows this very well.
Considering Ye Fei and the little one’s attitude, Zhao Gushen knows how well Mr. and Mrs. Li treated the little one before.
For this very reason, Zhao Gushen respects Mr. and Mrs. Li from the bottom of his heart.
Mr. Li hadn’t yet known Zhao Gushen would also be coming.
Earlier, in the living room, he had been accompanying Zhao Dingli and Xu Mingjian, and just watching their verbal sparring had exhausted Mr. Li.
Finally, after anticipating Li Xiaoyun and Mrs. Li’s return to the living room, Mrs. Li and Li Xiaoyun didn’t have a chance to chat much with Mr. Li.
Then Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei arrived.
Mr. Li didn’t have the slightest mental preparation for it.
Seeing Zhao Gushen now, he was directly stunned.
On the other hand, Mrs. Li was much better.
Though initially a bit tense.
Seeing Zhao Gushen respect them like this and not putting on airs at all.
Plus, with the prior connection through Zhao Dingli, Mrs. Li was still a bit nervous, but it was much less severe.
"Oh, please come in, please come in," Mrs. Li said, smiling.
Zhao Gushen was carrying large bags, all gifts for Mr. and Mrs. Li.
Since Zhao Dingli had already brought bird’s nests and "flower gel" from the old house.
Zhao Gushen didn’t give similar gifts again.
Anyhow, Ye Fei knows Mr. and Mrs. Li well.
So, they bought some other gifts according to Ye Fei’s suggestions.
Not too expensive, just a seafood assortment.
Like fresh abalone, some pricier fish and shrimp, and dried sea cucumber.
The fresh seafood was packed with ice in foam boxes for preservation during transport.
Additionally, they brought some mountain chicken eggs, beer, white wine, red wine, and spirits, a bit of everything.
Mr. Li could keep the ones he likes to drink, and the ones he doesn’t could be taken along when visiting relatives.
Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei bought practical daily items.
But in terms of value, they wouldn’t surpass Zhao Dingli’s.
After all, today, Zhao Dingli is the protagonist, they can’t steal his thunder.
Moreover, these gifts made Mr. and Mrs. Li delight without creating any pressure.
Too bad it’s not the season for eating crabs.
Although the weather’s warm, the crab prices are low.
But actually, if you truly understand, crabs are actually tastier when it’s colder.
In the cold, with low sea temperatures, crabs grow more slowly but adapt to the temperature, their meat becomes firmer and plumper.
Especially female crabs, their roe is very full, totally covering fat, turning into solid paste which can be directly picked with chopsticks, dipped in rice vinegar mixed with ginger slivers, and is extraordinarily delicious.
According to Zhao Gushen’s taste, sea crabs aren’t suited for black vinegar or aromatic vinegar.
The aroma and sweetness of these vinegars can easily overpower the fresh taste of sea crabs.
A lighter rice vinegar is still more fitting.
Black or aromatic vinegars better suit hairy crabs, eliminating fishiness while enhancing sweetness.
It’s just that it’s not the right month for eating hairy crabs.
Hence, Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei decided not to buy crabs.
Fish, shrimps, abalone, oysters from Rushan, they bought quite a lot, all favorites of Mr. and Mrs. Li.
Zhao Dingli looked satisfied too, Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei are still considerate.
A lot more thoughtful than Xiao Mo.
"Ye Fei, why did you buy so much stuff? Isn’t this your first time here? It’s okay to buy so much every visit?" Mrs. Li observed, liking it but still feeling it was somewhat excessive.
"We’ll discuss future visits then, today is Gushen’s first time coming, it needs attention," Ye Fei smiled and explained.
Mrs. Li said, "Let’s count this time, don’t do this again in future visits."
"Okay," Ye Fei agreed.
Next time, they’ll consider something else again.
For now, agreeing is fine.
At this point, Ye Fei and Zhao Gushen finally noticed the unfamiliar face in the room, Xu Mingjian.
Ye Fei paused, asking, "Who is..."
Even though Ye Fei doesn’t know everyone in Li Xiaoyun’s family, she knows quite a few.
This face of Xu Mingjian was indeed quite unfamiliar.
Mrs. Li felt even more awkward.
But more awkward than her, was Xu Mingjian.
Or perhaps saying shocked would be more appropriate.
Xu Mingjian doesn’t know Zhao Dingli, but he does know Zhao Gushen!
Although Zhao Gushen is low-key and not often in front of the media.
Nevertheless, he is now the head of Changping Group.
Whenever there are major decisions, important events, or significant achievements in the group.
Even if he doesn’t appear, the media still brings him up, sometimes publishing his photo.
Though, the photos used each time are the same few ones over and over.
No choice, because Zhao Gushen is low-key, doesn’t pose for photos, or update them.
Even the media wanting to find him wouldn’t know where to go.
