Chapter 1544: Family Banquet

Old Madam’s attention was diverted when she heard that they were hungry.

She looked at Qiao Chen lovingly and said, “Grandma knew that you liked braised lion’s head, so she made a lot of it. There’s also your favorite pickled fish, braised lobster, and so on. Mianmian likes spicy food, so I got someone to make spicy chicken and chopped pepper fish for you. Since you’re hungry, quickly go and eat.”

Old Madam instructed Uncle Zhang. “Get the kitchen to serve the dishes.”

Uncle Zhang heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that she wasn’t angry anymore. “Yes, I’ll go now.”

...

After Madam Mo left, they had a good dinner.

At least, Qiao Mianmian thought so.

She had a good appetite and ate two bowls in a row.

Seeing that she could eat, Old Madam said with a gratified expression, “In the future, you have to eat like this to grow meat. I saw that you ate a lot of the fish today, it seems like you like it very much. Bring the chef along when you go back. Let him cook for you in the future.”

“Grandma, Mianmian hasn’t been here recently.” Mo Yesi saw that Qiao Mianmian still had sesame on her lips and gently wiped it away. “Let’s wait for her to come back first.”

“Alright.” Old Madam took the tea from Uncle Zhang and took two sips. She then wiped the corner of her lips with a handkerchief. “I’ll keep him for you. When Mianmian comes back, let him go back with you.”

Qiao Mianmian quickly said sweetly, “Thank you, Grandma.”

Old Madam looked at her and chuckled. “Lass, although work is important, your body is more important. You must remember to take good care of your body and not let yourself work too hard. With your current status, you don’t have to work too hard.”

Old Madam’s concern warmed Qiao Mianmian’s heart. She nodded and said, “Mm. I’ll be careful, Grandma. You have to take care of yourself too. When I’m done with my work, I can come often to accompany you.”

“Chen Chen, you too. You have to take good care of your body.”

Old Madam knew about Qiao Chen’s illness and was heartbroken. She patted his hand and said, “Look at how skinny you are. You’re even thinner than your sister. You’re a boy.

“When your brother-in-law performs the surgery for you and our Chen Chen recovers, Grandma will definitely make it up for you. Don’t give yourself too much pressure in your studies. To Grandma, it’s better for you to be all healthy and safe.

“Especially Chen Chen. You have to take good care of your body. Don’t be careless.”

Qiao Chen smiled and held Old Madam’s hand. “Alright, Grandma. I’ll be careful.”

The siblings could tell that Old Madam really treated them well.

Hence, besides his brother-in-law, the other person in the Mo family that Qiao Chen liked was Old Madam.

“Chen Chen, I heard from your dad that you’re starting to take over the company now. Is that so?” Old Madam still doted on her grandson. Thinking about how her Mo family bloodline had been lost outside for so many years, Old Madam’s heart ached.

Thankfully, Qiao Chen was taken away from the orphanage by the Qiao family and was doing well.
