Chapter 247 -252: How Come There’s Such a Foolish Grandson
The Su family members were all gathered around Qin Cuifen, coddling her, laughing—such harmonious joy.
After returning from the business banquet, she felt maddening discomfort, jealousy. She swore she would never allow herself to be mistreated like that again, so she clung to Meng Ping.
However, fate did not favor her, not even once…
To be reborn, she felt it was God’s doing, giving her a second chance. Such an opportunity was hard to come by, how could she dare waste it?
Su Huai’an looked at Sheng Ning’s pale and haggard face, feeling a pinch of pain in his heart. She had been so brightly smiling before; why did she now resemble a frightened little bird?
“I’m fine, are you okay? You look very pale, should we take you to the hospital?”
“No need, no need!” Sheng Ning also felt she had lost her composure, and that she had dampened the spirits of everyone else, so she hurriedly explained, “I’m just hungry!”
“Hurry up and eat, hurry up and eat!” Mr. Chen broke the ice, “Yingzi, hurry up and invite everyone to wash their hands, and bring the dishes to the table!”
“Oh, oh, oh… coming right away! Everyone, please take a seat, don’t be shy.” Chen Huaying smacked her forehead and, pulling along Zhang Hongmei and Wu Youli, they bustled about.
Sheng Ning also mustered a smile and pulled Liu Yilan to the kitchen to serve the dishes.
Liu Yilan looked at her, wanting to say something but hesitated, and in the end, said nothing. The two of them were busy bringing out the dishes together.
In the small dining room, the table was rectangular. Old Master Chen and Mr. Su sat face to face at the head and foot.
The others were seated across from each other on the sides—Zhang Hongmei, Wu Youli, Liu Yilan on one side, and Chen Yingjie, Chen Huaying, Lu Dabao, and Su Huai’an on the other.
Sheng Ning was the last to wash her hands and take a seat at the table, looking left and right, she noticed that the people she did not want to sit with were all together, and that side already had one person each seated.
She guessed that Liu Yilan and Chen Huaying had arranged this intentionally. She stealthily shot Chen Huaying a grateful look and immediately sat down with Wu Youli and the others.

Dinner was sumptuous—pickled fish, fish head and tofu soup, Chinese cabbage with glass noodles and beef, braised radish, radish peel, and West Lake beef soup.
Especially the pickled fish, radish peel and West Lake beef soup. Now with scarce resources and slow information spread, many people in the Northern regions had never even heard of these dishes, let alone tasted them.
Paired with large pancakes and millet porridge for the main course, it was enough to rivet everyone’s gaze to the table, incapable of looking away.
“It’s like New Year’s!” Liu Yilan said.
“We don’t even have this many dishes for New Year’s at my house!”
“Every time, my grandma only makes mushroom stewed chicken!” complained Lu Dabao, pouting.
“Did you cook all these dishes, Sheng Ning?” Old Master Chen looked around happily, smiling and asking, “What is this?”
“Pickled fish, using grass carp sliced into fillets, cooked with pickled vegetables, chili, and Sichuan pepper,” Sheng Ning, who liked the old man, replied with a smile.
“You sliced these fish fillets yourself?” Old Master Chen asked in disbelief.
“Yes!”
“Such skillful knife work!”
Chen Yingjie also expressed surprise, reaching out with his chopsticks to try a slice, but Old Master Chen knocked his chopstick away.
Sheng Ning watched their little interaction and couldn’t help but laugh, explaining, “Actually, there’s nothing special about the knife skills, it’s just a matter of mastering a few small techniques!”
Her knife skills could only be considered decent; compared to a real chef, there was still a gap.
“Not bad!” the old man gave a thumbs-up, “How come a young girl like you is already betrothed? If only you could be my granddaughter-in-law, how wonderful that would be!” He then glared fiercely at his grandson, obviously thinking ‘What a useless grandson, why can’t he be more competent?’
