Chapter 360 Malnutrition?

“Of course. I’m not bragging, but if there are any happy events or funerals in the village, my skills can be used. I have prestige in the village.” Grandpa Liu was especially happy when he heard Ye Xuan praise him.

Although Ye Xuan was young, he was a big boss. The cars he took were never seen by the villagers. Grandpa Liu usually had nothing to do and liked to play mahjong with the old men in the activity room and brag at the same time. To be liked by the boss in the city was enough for him to brag in front of a group of old men for half a year.

“I, Old Liu, have been praised by the big bosses in the city. My culinary skills are impressive. None of the other old men can do it.”

Grandpa Liu filled a bowl of soup for Liu Yanran and specially cut off a wing to put in the bowl.

Liu Yanran was stunned. She looked at her grandfather and almost cried. Then, she saw Ye Xuan looking at her meaningfully.

Liu Yanran liked to eat meat and was not happy without meat. However, she had just said in front of Ye Xuan that she couldn’t eat eggs and needed to maintain her figure. If she ate meat now, what would her Young Master think of her?

Wasn’t this slapping her own face? Liu Yanran decided to maintain her image as a female elite. She definitely couldn’t let her Young Master underestimate her.

“Grandpa, you can eat it. I’ll just drink the soup. I’m on a diet.” Liu Yanran tried her best to pretend to be calm and spoke in a tone that said that she didn’t like meat at all.

Grandpa Liu was stunned. “You loved it the most when you were young. Didn’t you say that you wanted to eat it when you called me previously? Why don’t you like it now? Child, I don’t know what you like now!”

Liu Yanran hurriedly signaled her grandfather with her eyes. She thought, “Grandpa, stop talking. If you continue, I won’t be able to hold it in anymore. I’m just trying to maintain my image. Otherwise, my Young Master will definitely say that Liu Yanran wants to lose weight, so why is she eating meat?”

Meanwhile, Ye Xuan was secretly happy when he heard Liu Yanran’s words. He thought, “Liu Yanran, you tricked a child. You didn’t expect this day to come, did you?”

Seeing that she could not eat freely in front of the delicious food, Liu Yanran wanted to die. She regretted lying to her Young Master and saying that she wanted to lose weight and maintain her figure.

Liu Yanran was extremely embarrassed. “Grandpa, you should eat it. I won’t eat it. I’ll just look at it…”

Liu Yanran’s words became softer and softer. Ye Xuan chuckled and deliberately picked up a drumstick to eat in front of Liu Yanran. His mouth was filled with oil.

“The drumstick is so delicious. Grandpa Liu, your cooking is really good. The drumstick is smooth and tender. I’ve never eaten such a delicious drumstick!”

“You little flatterer!”

Seeing that Ye Xuan was deliberately eating meat to tempt her, Liu Yanran couldn’t help but complain in her heart. Otherwise, she would suffocate to death!

However, Grandpa Liu couldn’t tell what was going on between Ye Xuan and Liu Yanran. He recalled what happened to Liu Yanran when she was young.

“When you were young, you especially liked chicken wings, so I raised chickens. I thought that you definitely wouldn’t be able to eat authentic Plymouth Rock chickens in the city. I didn’t expect you to not like it anymore. It seems that I’m really old. Perhaps I’ve really forgotten what you like?” Grandpa Liu’s eyes were covered in a layer of white mist.

Ye Xuan was stunned. Grandpa Liu’s deep concern for Liu Yanran and self-blame were hidden in his words.

Liu Yanran was also stunned. After she entered the city, she was busy with work and rarely came back. She only contacted her grandfather by phone, but every time, she hung up after a few minutes.

Like all workers, she did not have time to accompany her loved ones.

Liu Yanran suddenly thought that her grandfather was old.

“Grandpa, I like to eat this.” Liu Yanran decided not to care if Ye Xuan would laugh at her. She picked up the drumstick and stuffed it into her mouth. “Grandpa, it’s delicious!” Grandpa Liu was instantly happy. “It’s good that you like it. I’ll get you more later. It’s not easy to get in the city, but it’s very easy to get in our village.”‘ Ye Xuan saw that when Grandpa Liu spoke, he even turned around to look at the chickens in the chicken shed. He instantly felt that it was a tragedy for these chickens. Grandpa Liu was most likely going to harm these chickens. A chicken only had a pair of wings.

In order to satisfy Liu Yanran, Ye Xuan thought that these chickens probably wouldn’t survive. Grandpa Liu’s love for Liu Yanran was really terrifying.

Soon, the meal was over. Grandpa Liu busied himself with cleaning up and let Lin Yuan and Liu Yanran play around. He took various bags and began to store things.

Grandpa Liu knew that Ye Xuan and Liu Yanran were going back to the city, so he only wanted to give them all the specialties at home that they could bring back. If he didn’t have any at home, he would go to his neighbor’s house to get them. Soon, there were several bags in the courtyard.

Liu Yanran felt that it was too much. “Grandpa, that’s enough. It’s too much. It’s really too much.”

“It’s not much. I’ve never criticized you. Look at how thin you’ve become since you came back.”

There was a kind of thinness that made one’s mother feel that they had lost weight. Grandpa Liu was like this now. He kept feeling that Lin Yanran was so thin that she had no flesh. Actually, Liu Yanran had a good figure, but in Grandpa Liu’s eyes, if there was no meat on her face, she was thin. Just like the girls in the countryside, being chubby was considered healthy. As for Liu Yanran, who was like a skeleton, it was because she did not eat well. Grandpa Liu whispered, “You usually eat better. Is it because you’re busy with work and don’t have time to eat? Your arm doesn’t have any meat and you’re thin. You didn’t eat much meat just now.” Looking at Liu Yanran’s slender figure, Grandpa Liu felt his heart ache. This child didn’t know how to take care of herself at all. Ye Xuan stood at the side and was speechless. Liu Yanran had eaten the last bit of meat in the meal just now, but he only ate a drumstick and drank a bowl of soup. How could this be called not eating much?

 

Liu Yanran was caught between laughter and tears. “Grandpa, I really ate a lot. I’m actually not thin. I’m very healthy.”

“Then why are you as thin as firewood?” Ye Xuan pretended not to hear her, but he was laughing so hard in his heart that he wanted to die. This grandfather was too interesting. Liu Yanran looked at her grandfather speechlessly. “Grandpa, this is called a standard figure. People want to be S-shaped curve beauties, not firewood girls! Everyone in the city is like this. I wonder how many people are envious of my figure?”

Grandpa Liu felt that Liu Yanran was malnourished. “How can someone like you envious? I think you’re sick. It’s most likely be because you can’t afford it. It seems that life in the city isn’t as good as in the countryside.” Ye Xuan felt that it made sense. During the meal just now, an authentic free-range chicken had been cooked. There were also other fresh vegetables and fruits. Ordinary people in the city could not afford to eat this meal.

Liu Yanran suddenly didn’t know what to say and smiled bitterly. “You simply have divine logic. I’m convinced.”
