Chapter 16 - Jia Li's Great Culinary Skills Grandfather Fu's tone was clear, and the meaning of his words, easy to understand. The police officers only came to report the latest information to him and were not there to plead on behalf of anybody. "General, we will handle him according to the law. We are sorry to have disturbed your rest, we will take our leave now." The chief police officer said as he and his underlings bowed before taking their leave. You may be wondering why the Fu brothers didn't butt in during the conversation, so here is the reason. The Fu brothers knew their grandfather was capable, and wouldn't need their help to speak, so they kept calm. Now the Police Officers were gone, and the old man had calmed down a bit, Jia could now serve the food. With a cheerful smile on her face, Jia Li stood to her feet as she approached the old man. "Grandfather, it's late already and you need to have your dinner." Grandfather Fu smiled as he said to her, "Girl, this old man has been waiting for your food." "Okay. But grandfather, don't make fun of Jia Li if the food is not to your taste." Kia Li said before walking back to the table to serve the food. "I wouldn't dare." Grandfather Fu said with a smile on his wrinkled face. Fu Hua and YingPei had their eyes on Jia Li as she took out the four lunch boxes ???? from the polythene bags. "Do you think her food will be nice?." YingPei whispered to Fu Hua in a curious tone. "I don't know." Fu Hua replied as he looked away from Jia Li. Grandfather Fu's meal box was different from the others because he was still a patient. He accepted his meal box with an anticipating smile on his aged face. "The food looks delicious." Grandfather Fu said as he removed the lid of his food box, before picking up his chopsticks ????. "Taste it." Jia Li said to him as she handed two meal boxes to Fu Hua and Yingpei. "Mmm. It has a great taste!." Grandfather Fu praised her cooking after taking a bite of the freshly cooked vegetables on his plate. "It smells nice," YingPei said after he uncovered the lunch box. He was already drooling and couldn't wait to have a taste. "Thank you!." Jia Li said with a happy smile before going to eat her food. As for Fu Hua, he was unlike the others. He didn't give any reaction and just ate his food in silence. When he first had a taste of the food, he knew the food was delicious, but he refused to say anything and preferred to enjoy the meal in silence. Jia Li thought Fu Hua didn't like the food, so she felt a little bad, but decided not to dwell on it as she focused on her food. During the meal, Grandfather Fu's face was filled with a smile, and YingPei wasn't left behind. Grandfather and Grandson enjoyed their meal with satisfied smiles on their faces, while the other grandson chose to hide his feelings. After the meal, Jia Li packed up their lunch boxes and kept them away. "Girl, I didn't know you could cook so well, even more than your mother." Grandfather Fu praised with a grin. Jia Li chuckled softly as she replied, "Grandfather why do I think your praise sounds like you are bootlicking?." "Who has time for that? I was only telling the truth." Grandfather Fu replied as he looked away. "Okay...okay thank you, grandfather." Jia Li replied happily. Having rested for a while, Jia Li passed his medications to him with a glass of water, and the old man took it without a fuss, before handing the glass back to her. "Grandfather, finish the water." Jia Li said as she handed the glass back to him. 'Who dares to command grandfather?.' The Fu brothers thought as they looked on. But to their surprise, their grandfather took the glass from Jia Li and finished the water obediently before handing the empty glass back to her. It looks like they need to start getting used to the influence Jia Li had over their grandfather. Around 9 pm, Fu Hua and YingPei left the hospital to their hotel they lodged in, so only Grandfather Fu and Jia were left in the hospital room. Sometime later, Mrs. Qin and the nurse assigned to check on Grandfather Fu came to check on him. Because of the drip, grandfather Fu needed to use the bathroom often. Now he could walk by himself, he didn't need help with bathroom breaks. FU VILLA "When will my sons be back?." A good-looking older woman asked General Fu as she laid on the same bed as him. She was his wife and the mother to Fu Hua and YingPei, Mrs. Fu. "Have you asked about my father?." General Fu asked with a tired look. "I know he is getting better. The old General has always been a strong man, so I'm sure he is strong enough now. I'm only worried about my sons since they might not be used to the environment." Mrs. Fu said with a neutral look. "Tomorrow morning, call Father to ask about his health. Don't make up any excuse, just call him and apologize for not calling him earlier, then ask about his health. I know you don't care, but at least accord him some respect." General Fu said in an annoyed tone before turning over to the other side. "Are you angry with me?." Mrs. Fu asked with her gaze on his back, but she didn't receive any reply. She didn't why he was suddenly angry with her, but she had to placate him. "Alright, I will do as you have instructed. I will call Father in the morning." Mrs. Fu still didn't get any reply, so she guessed her husband was already asleep, so sighed before closing her eyes to sleep as well. When morning reached, then she will have to bother about other things.
