Chapter 221 Not up to par, far inferior to Lin Han (1/2)

Grandma Jiang can't stand seeing people looking pitiful, but she's nowhere near as pitiful as Lin Han. What was Lin Han like when she first came to the Gu family?

She was generous and open, not at all reserved, not stingy, and didn't make herself look pitiful.

When Lin Han first arrived, she also wanted to help in the kitchen, but Grandma Jiang told her not to. So she smiled and stood aside, chatting with Grandma Jiang and trying to make her happy.

Grandma Jiang is cooking with even more enthusiasm now.

What is Xiaoya doing?

It was as if she was being bullied for not letting her into the kitchen.

Anyway, Grandma Jiang couldn't stand it and didn't get along with Xiaoya.

However, Grandma Jiang couldn't stand seeing someone looking miserable while she was cooking.

She simply wiped her hands, let Xiaoya come in to cook, and went to do other things, out of sight, out of mind.

She still prefers a generous and outgoing girl like Lin Han.

Xiaoya was able to enter the Gu family's kitchen as she wished.

In her mind, as long as you control the kitchen of a house, you've established yourself firmly in that house.

She worked very hard, using all her skills to prepare what she considered a very sumptuous lunch for the Gu family.

After finishing cooking, Xiaoya was so hungry she was almost fainting, but she still put down her apron, said goodbye to Grandma Jiang, and was about to leave.

It's impolite to stand by and watch other people eat.

Back in the village, if someone deliberately went to someone's house during mealtime, they would be criticized behind their back.

Xiaoya was scolded when she was a child because she didn't know any better, so she quit.

"Grandma Jiang, I've finished cooking, so I'll head back now and come back this afternoon."

Grandma Jiang glanced at the food on the table and thought to herself, "Xiaoya really has worked hard."

"Don't leave, stay and eat with us."

Xiaoya hesitated and declined, but her eyes remained fixed on the dishes.

Grandma Jiang saw all of this and thought Xiaoya was a bit petty.

If it were her beloved granddaughter-in-law Lin Han, she would simply stay without hesitation and say a few witty remarks to make everyone happy.

"You can keep the food you made. Our Gu family isn't so poor that we can't afford to feed a young girl."

Xiaoya then lowered her head and stayed behind shyly.

When Qin Shuman and the other two people who worked got off work, they saw the food on the table that didn't look like Grandma Jiang's cooking, and thought it was Aunt Li's.

Aunt Li said that Xiaoya had cooked the meal, which surprised Qin Shuman.

This Xiaoya is really different from her grandma.

While they may seem different, they're actually quite similar at their core.

The Gu family members are all seasoned veterans of the officialdom; they are all incredibly shrewd and calculating.

They had a pretty good idea of ​​what Xiaoya was doing and what she was thinking.

But no one pointed it out. Everyone was a decent person and there was no need to embarrass a young girl in public.
