Chapter 186 - 181: Mom on the Move
"Well now, that’s some skill, isn’t it? After getting married and being there for years, surely you haven’t been slaving away as a free cook every day?" Ye Fu picked up a piece of braised fish, a dish that was meant to tantalize the senses, yet he could hardly taste it. Anyone without years of cooking experience wouldn’t be able to whip up such a meal. One can only imagine how much hardship our daughter must have endured over these years.
"Dad!" Ye Qiu looked at her father helplessly. Why did he always have to be so awkward when expressing his concern? But even though her dad was stubborn, she knew his love for her was no less than Mom’s.
"Dad, what do you think about me opening a restaurant nearby with my cooking skills?" Ye Qiu changed the subject, seeking Ye Fu’s opinion.
She waited confidently for Ye Fu’s response, but to her surprise, he glared at her angrily: "What’s a girl like you doing wanting to be a chef, all that cooking will ruin your skin with grease and fumes. Didn’t you graduate from University C? Why not get a teaching credential? I think it’d be nice to be a teacher at the primary school across the street, easy and effortless work."
"Dad, I don’t want to be a teacher, I want to save up more money for Yinyin."
"My small business isn’t closed yet, it earns a bit every year. What, do you think it’s not enough? And didn’t that Kong-whatever divorce with nothing? Are you still unsatisfied?" Ye Fu glared at Ye Qiu, visibly frustrated.
Ye Qiu smiled helplessly: "Dad, that’s not what I mean. Don’t you think it would be a waste if I didn’t open a restaurant with these cooking skills?"
Ye Fu shoveled a mouthful of rice perfunctorily: "Don’t think so."
