Crossing 70: Fish in the Pond Have Good News

Chapter 519 Appreciation

It was the same on this day. Liang Xiyuan said that she was itching to cook Northeastern cuisine, so she invited Jiang Yu and Yi Chi to have lunch at his house.

Yi Chi did not go with her because he had other arrangements. Jiang Yu explained this to Professor Wang Yingnan and asked him to tell Liang Xiyuan.

Liang Xiyuan and Jiang Yu made an appointment to meet on Saturday morning and waited under the tube building early in the morning.

When Jiang Yu arrived, she saw Liang Xiyuan from a distance and shouted, "Auntie Liang!"

When Liang Xiyuan heard the voice, she looked over and saw Jiang Yu carrying a lot of things. "What are you carrying? Is it heavy? Auntie will help you carry some."

"It's okay, it's not heavy at all. They are basically vegetables produced by Xueli Farm. I got more, so I'll share some with you." Jiang Yu made way, avoided Liang Xiyuan, and went upstairs with the food himself.

Liang Xiyuan has always been unable to persuade Jiang Yu, so she can only trot behind her, "You've taken too much, just cook the food for yourselves, why are you giving it to me!"

"I've prepared your portion anyway. Yi Chi and I have been preparing for exams recently, so we've been busy and too lazy to cook, so we've eaten at the restaurant. Please be kind and eat all the dishes. Don't waste them." Jiang Yu went up to the fourth floor and saw that the door of the room at the corner was not closed, so he leaned sideways and pushed it open with his shoulder and walked in.

Uncle Liang was playing chess in the study. When he heard the noise outside, he quickly came out.

Liang Xiyuan was still muttering about how Jiang Yu didn't know how to live, but Uncle Liang didn't care what his daughter was saying. He walked up and waved his hand, "You are really getting more and more nagging. Go and cook. Jiang girl, come with me. I just set up a new chess game. See if it's easy this time!"

Jiang Yu only had time to put on his slippers. Before he could even carry the things on the floor into the kitchen, he was dragged directly to the study by Grandpa Liang.

Professor Wang Yingnan came over from the living room to help Liang Xiyuan. He smiled as he watched Jiang Yu being bullied by his father-in-law. When he entered the kitchen, he sighed softly, "Jiang Yu is indeed a good seedling."

"Are you still thinking about it? Stop nagging. That kid is very opinionated. Since he has already rejected you, he definitely doesn't want to develop things in that direction." Liang Xiyuan knew her man's character. He seemed gentle, but in fact he was quite stubborn in his bones. However, Jiang Yu would definitely be more opinionated than him.

Wang Yingnan glared at his wife and said, "If I accept her as my apprentice, won't she be closer to us?"

"She is close to my father now. Don't make things difficult for her, otherwise the old man will directly adopt her as his daughter, and you will have to be of the same generation as her, which will be even more disadvantageous." Liang Xiyuan pulled Wang Yingnan aside to remind him, urging him to give up that idea as soon as possible.

Wang Yingnan was so angry at his wife that he snorted and quickly pulled her, "Cook, cook, don't you want to make sweet and sour pork? Where is the oil you just filled yesterday?"

"What? You seem so enthusiastic. Do you know how to do it or what?" Liang Xiyuan simply stopped moving and just stood there with her arms crossed, looking at him.

"How could I know how? Wifey, it's getting late. You are the chef, can I help you?" What else could Wang Yingnan do? Of course he had to admit defeat.

In the room, Jiang Yu and Uncle Liang were discussing the chess game, and it was very lively.

When Liang Xiyuan entered the study room carrying tea, she was moved when she saw this scene.

In fact, it is a good idea for Lao Wang to accept Jiang Yu as his apprentice. The two of them will never have children in this life, and if they can be closer to Jiang Yu, the couple will be more than happy.

But Ren Jiangyu obviously doesn't mean that, so there's no need to force it. Just maintain the current relationship.

Even so, because Jiang Yu is still Wang Yingnan's student, at the dinner table, the professor's old habit came back and he couldn't help asking Jiang Yu some professional questions.

Jiang Yu had a photographic memory and was familiar with most of the historical knowledge that needed to be memorized, so no matter what the professor asked, she could basically answer it.

Jiang Yu just answered Wang Yingnan's question in a very normal way. She felt that her answer was very empty and did not even reflect her own thoughts.

However, Wang Yingnan felt that she was very talented and had a solid theoretical foundation, and even wanted to invite her to be his student again.

Fortunately, Liang Xiyuan was quick-witted and stuffed a piece of sweet and sour pork into his mouth, stopping him from speaking.

Seeing his wife's death stare, Wang Yingnan had no choice but to give up.

Jiang Yu just wanted to laugh, and decided to confess as soon as possible. Maybe she could ask Professor Wang for help and let her know more inheritors of traditional skills. She put down her chopsticks and said, "Actually, I should have told Aunt Liang. You know I have always liked antiques and I have collected some old things. My dream is to build a museum to include all the traditional skills I have come into contact with. I can't promote them, but at least I can ensure that the various old skills can be passed down."

"Museum? Museum of Material Culture?" Seeing that she had changed her previous vague excuses and was stating her ideas so directly, Wang Yingnan also corrected his attitude and started chatting with her.

"Yes, we will exhibit some antiques and also do consignment sales of traditional handicrafts." After Jiang Yu receives the dividends from the farm at the end of the year, he will start working on purchasing the foundation for the museum.

"No wonder you don't want to learn from me. If it's about museums, Professor Zhang, who has studied abroad, knows more about it. But your grades are very good, and Professor Zhang will definitely be happy to accept you as a student. I can provide you with some help with the parts related to modern history later." Wang Yingnan sighed again with some regret, but young people have their own ideas, and they should still be supported.

"Girl, are you still twisting wire?" Uncle Liang didn't know much about museums, but he had always placed the wire pavilion that Jiang Yu gave him in his room. The little object was exquisite and beautiful, and it would be a pity if she didn't do it in the future.

"Yes, after I have learned more techniques, I will be able to integrate them. Who knows, maybe even better works will be born in my hands." It's not that the wire twisting should not be neglected. The same goes for blacksmithing and wood carving. I have to continue to improve in the future.

"That's good, but you have more important things to do now, so take them one by one. You have to focus on what you do to have the possibility of making progress." Uncle Liang smiled kindly at Jiang Yu, as if he was treating the other person as his junior.

Liang Xiyuan and Wang Yingnan had the same attitude, and both said, "Don't be in a hurry. You are still young. Take your time to do what you want to do. Let's lay a solid foundation step by step, and then make steady progress."

Jiang Yu looked at the three friendly faces opposite him and could only nod humbly, "Okay, I will definitely not rush into anything, I will take it step by step."

"Okay!" Uncle Liang slapped the table happily, "My dear, I'm waiting to see your museum."
