Chapter 291: Blending In
This was the most torturous meal for Pu Tong in recent months.
He thought that he had a strong tolerance for food and had a certain understanding of his mother's cooking skills, but today's meal still made him feel sick.
A dish of fried watermelon and meat almost cost him half his life.
Perhaps this is the price to avoid his mother and Ji Shutong from continuing to quarrel...
"Creative failure!" Ni Hui looked at the dishes on the table, and naturally knew clearly that she had not done it well again today.
Although she was not good at cooking, she would never be blindly confident. After all, she knew whether the food she made was delicious or not.
"Why can't you learn some simple dishes... You don't have enough skills, but you still learn to make creative dishes." Pu Tong took a sip of tea and rinsed the strange taste in his mouth without leaving any trace.
"It's because of my lack of level that I want to find another way." Ni Hui smiled embarrassedly. Of course, she knew that this idea was wrong, but how could she know if she didn't try it? Maybe she would become a famous chef inadvertently!
Don't those chefs on TV like to use weird tricks to cook?
"Aunt Ji thought you were good at cooking and was not as good as me, but who knew you were actually a Breaking Bad master!" Pu Tong sighed. If Yu Wanwan's mother knew that she admired such an ability, she would be so angry that she would die.
"Is there such a thing?" Ni Hui felt relieved all over. She didn't expect that her words before leaving would successfully plant the seeds of victory in her heart.
If she had known earlier, she would have waited a little longer before leaving!
"Don't you know how good you are at cooking?"
"I know, but she doesn't!" Ni Hui smiled, "Since this beautiful misunderstanding has already occurred, there is no need to expose it."
It's not easy to make Ji Shutong feel admiration. Since she thinks she is a mother who is good at cooking and has a clever hand, let her think so.
But she also won once.
"You are really deceiving yourself..." Pu Tong rolled her eyes. To say that her mother is okay in other aspects, but she actually has the nerve to deceive people with cooking skills. It's really shameful.
"No, no, go find Yu Wanwan and ask for her mother's contact information!" Ni Hui rubbed her hands excitedly, as if she had an idea.
"When the time comes, I will add her as a friend, and post pictures of delicious food every day in Moments that only she can see, saying that I made it myself, so that she will be mad!"
"Uh..."
My mother is really something, she is already 40 years old, why is she still so childish... Even if it is to declare the sovereignty of her child in the relationship, there is no need to do this.
Seeing her excited look, Pu Tong did not want to complain about her elegance, so he cleaned up his dishes and returned to the room silently.
He glanced at his mobile phone, wondering if Lin Yuxi's parent-teacher meeting this afternoon went smoothly.
The other people in the group kept their mobile phones with them, and they had already talked about a lot of things, so Pu Tong could only look through the chat records.
Lin Yuxi: [It's not troublesome, but my sister did not perform well in school, and as a "parent", I was also scolded by the head teacher. ]
Yu Wanwan: [It's only been half a semester since I transferred here, the teacher should be tolerant of the new students, right? ]
Lin Yuxi: [She wears strange clothes, dyes her hair, gets her ears pierced and wears makeup to school, and even bullies boys in the class...]
Yu Wanwan: [Just ignore what I said.]
Tolerating newcomers has its limits. A junior high school student with these non-mainstream behaviors is indeed a bit excessive. As a parent, it is definitely responsible for negligence in management, and it is normal to be criticized.
Pu Tong now knows why Lin Yuxi's father chose to come to Lin Yuxi's parent-teacher meeting first... Her sister's poor performance, she is doomed to be scolded if she goes.
Iori Yukino: [I am more concerned about her bullying of boys!]
Lin Yuxi: [I heard that there are boys in the class who like to tease He Suyi, which is very annoying. My sister scolded those boys who started the trouble, and one of them talked back was kicked over by her.]
Pu Tong: [6.]
In any sense, Lin Yuran really lives up to the name of a little gangster. She wears strange clothes, blows, draws, dyes, and perms, and even boys can be bullied by her.
And it sounds a bit chivalrous for no reason. What's going on?
Adolescent boys are very childish when it comes to expressing their love. They will constantly tease the girls they like, hoping to attract their attention and make them like them.
Although, from an adult's perspective, such behavior is indeed a bit annoying.
It seems that Lin Yuran and He Suyi get along well... They all know that one protects the other.
Yu Wanwan: [It does sound a bit bad. As a sister, you have to discipline her! ]
Lin Yuxi: [Alas, I should have talked to her earlier. I indulged her too much in the past. ]
"Alas!" Yu Wanwan sighed, not knowing what to say. Every family has its own problems, and it's hard for outsiders to say.
Instead of worrying about other people's affairs, it's better to consider how to transfer here.
"What's wrong? Why are you sighing?" Ji Shutong sat aside and flipped through a magazine, a little worried about his daughter's condition.
"Nothing, I'm going to take a shower."
Yu Wanwan smiled bitterly, didn't say much, packed up her things and went into the bathroom.
Ji Shutong shook her head silently. It was really hard to understand the young people nowadays. They sat there playing with their phones and then began to sigh. I didn’t know what they were watching.
When she thought of this, she glanced at the phone that Yu Wanwan had thrown beside her and immediately became very interested.
What do the young people nowadays talk about when they get together?
Wanwan and Pu Tong, what's the matter with them? I'm a little curious.
"As a mother, it shouldn't be too much to take a look at what young people are talking about..." Ji Shutong glanced in the direction of the bathroom, and picked up her daughter's phone when she heard the sound of water inside.
Ji Shutong tried the password that Yu Wanwan often used, and it opened effortlessly.
"Wanwan hasn't changed at all." She chuckled and noticed the group of four people in progress.
One man and three women, her daughter is really generous, isn't she afraid of being interfered with by her bestie? Although you can't think badly of people, you have to pay attention to it when it comes to your daughter.
The group is still talking about Lin Yuxi and her sister, and Pu Tong sends an emoticon from time to time, completely in a quiet and peeping posture.
Iori Yukino: [I suddenly have a bold guess! ]
Iori Yukino: [You must have deliberately spoiled your sister into a bad person, so that she will not be qualified to compete with you for the family property in the future! ]
Ah? Ji Shutong was stunned, there is such a way of thinking? Could it be that this little Sakura girl is really a genius?
Putting aside the facts, her idea does make sense!
Yu Wanwan: [It makes sense. Compared with all kinds of open and secret struggles at that time, this strategy is the best. ]
Ji Shutong was in a playful mood and simply pretended to be her daughter and sent a message.
She was very curious whether these "friends" of her daughter could recognize them.
Lin Yuxi: [Wanwan, stop joking. If you think what the fool said makes sense, then you will become a fool too. ]
"Hahaha, interesting!" Ji Shutong was immediately amused by them. It turned out that these young people were so fun to chat.
If she remembered correctly, this girl surnamed Lin had too strict family education. She usually spoke politely in front of him. I didn't expect her to be so talkative in private.
This is the circle of young people. It's a bit fun.
Pu Tong: [You two are so conspiratorial. You are really dark inside...]
Hey, this little guy, you dare to call me dark?
She typed a paragraph of words to fight back, and suddenly remembered that she was pretending to be Yu Wanwan, and this tone of education from an elder was obviously inappropriate.
If it was her daughter, what would she say?
Yu Wanwan: [What's wrong with being gloomy, don't you like it? ]
Ji Shutong looked at the message she sent with a smile, and was looking forward to Pu Tong's answer. If she was not exposed, could he dare to say that he didn't like his daughter? If he dared to say so, then she would have to break up the couple.
Pu Tong: [Okay, okay, you are right. ]
"You are smart!"
The sound of water flowing in the bathroom continued. Based on her understanding of her daughter, she would have to take a while to take a bath.
That is to say, she can still pretend to be "Yu Wanwan" for a while.
Perhaps because she had lived in the adult world for a long time, she suddenly felt that it seemed quite fun to pretend to be a girl and blend in.
Ji Shutong looked at the ambiguous note her daughter gave to Pu Tong's "personal belongings" and was a little shocked by her daughter's implicit possessiveness.
It seems that Wanwan's love for this boy is really extraordinary... I wonder if he is worthy of her daughter's love.
Thinking of this, Ji Shutong suddenly had an interesting idea.
Could she pretend to be her daughter and test this boy?
