Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!-Chapter 429: I’m Not Nervous at All

As they walked, Housekeeper Hong said, "The old lady has been talking about you all day, wondering why you haven’t arrived yet. She didn’t want to call and rush you, worried that you might be busy and she didn’t want to inconvenience you."

Zhao Gushen explained, "In the morning, Xiao Fei was busy at home making mooncakes to bring, so we only came over after having lunch."

Housekeeper Hong immediately laughed, "The last time the Young Madam came over and cooked a table full of dishes, our Lao Lin has been thinking about them ever since."

The last time Ye Fei came, she was there in the capacity of a private chef.

The old lady wanted to see Ye Fei, but at that time she didn’t know that Ye Fei and Zhao Gushen already had a child together. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

But that time, Ye Fei prepared lunch for the old ladies and thoughtfully set aside a portion for Aunt Lin.

Later on, Aunt Lin spoke to Housekeeper Hong, praising Ye Fei generously.

This made Housekeeper Hong particularly fond of and grateful to Ye Fei as well.

In the old house, Housekeeper Hong and Aunt Lin are like family to the Zhao Family, not just staff working as a housekeeper and an aunt.

But outsiders might not know this.

Other people might not hold Housekeeper Hong and Aunt Lin in such high regard.

At the time, Ye Fei didn’t know that they were like family in this household.

Yet she still thoughtfully considered Aunt Lin.

She didn’t regard Aunt Lin as just an aunt and overlooked her.

"Not only the old lady is anxious at home, though the old man doesn’t say it, you can see he’s eager for you to come too." Housekeeper Hong chuckled, helping Ye Fei understand the situation beforehand.

"Yesterday, you went to a gathering, didn’t you?" Housekeeper Hong said, "Today, the Qi family’s old man called, saying that You Xuan and You Jin would be returning to the old house for the festival. They spoke to the Qi old man and Qi old lady about the Young Madam and Xiao Mo."

Ye Fei quickly seized the opportunity and said, "Housekeeper Hong, please just call me by my name. Being called the Young Madam makes me feel awkward. You don’t have to be so formal with me."

Because Housekeeper Hong had already considered Ye Fei as the Young Madam.

Therefore, Zhao Gushen didn’t fuss over the terms of address.

He simply nodded and said, "Uncle Hong, Xiao Fei feels uncomfortable, so just call her by her name."

"Alright, sure." Housekeeper Hong readily agreed.

"Song Yu speaks very highly of Young Mad—Ye Fei, and You Xuan and You Jin really like Xiao Mo too." Housekeeper Hong said with a smile, "With their approval, the old man hasn’t even met Ye Fei yet nor showed any openness, but in his heart, he has already accepted it. He’s retracted his previous reservations."

"Knowing you wouldn’t arrive until the afternoon, the old man didn’t even take a nap today. After lunch, he went out into the yard for a stroll. Initially, he said he went out to digest his food. Then he said he was going for a walk. He basically found any pretext to come out, coming out multiple times, finding all sorts of excuses."

The old lady surely knew the real reason behind the old man’s actions?

So she didn’t bother to listen to his excuses.

It was all in one ear and out the other.

All those excuses the old man gave, in the end, were just for his own ears.

Even though Ye Fei hadn’t met the old man herself, hearing these descriptions from Housekeeper Hong, she already had an image of a lovable old man in her mind.

"So, feeling more at ease now, not nervous anymore?" Zhao Gushen asked Ye Fei and Xiao Mo with a smile.

"I was never nervous! I’m not nervous at all!" Xiao Mo wouldn’t admit that he was nervous just now.
