“Ol Leng, this is mine.”

“This is mine. You’ve already eaten one plate just now. This plate is mine.”

“This is mine, Ol Li. Why do you keep snatching it from me…”

“You’re stealing it from me. Stop it. This is my favorite.”

“Everything is your favorite.”

Inside the Gong Family’s dining room, the big shots acted like children as they fought over the food.

Old Master Gong, who was sitting calmly on the other side of the dining table, was eating as usual.

“Also, why is this rice so fragrant? There’s a hint of sweetness in the rice. It’s really delicious.”

“And this corn rib soup…”

Old Master Li and Old Master Leng ate as they spoke, wishing they could swallow all the dishes on the table.

After the fight, each elder had a few plates of food placed before them.

Old Master Gong couldn’t stand it any longer and said loudly, “Have you not eaten for hundreds of years? Do you have to be like this? You’ve taken so much of the food. You’re going to waste them!”

Old Master Li said as he ate, “Don’t worry, Old Gong, we’ll definitely finish it.”

Old Master Gong looked at them suspiciously. “Are you two pigs? Can you finish so much food?”

Old Master Li had just swallowed a stalk of spinach when he said snappily, “Who are you calling a pig? If we can’t finish it here, we’ll take them home!”

Old Master Gong was surprised and said, “You want to take the food home?! How shameless are you?”

“You’re the one that’s shameless!” Old master Leng retorted snappily, “We just don’t want you to waste money and food!”

Old Master Gong nodded thoughtfully. “Fine. I originally planned for you to bring some fresh vegetables back, but since…”

“Wait!” Old Master Li immediately interrupted. “What did you say? When you said fresh vegetables, do you mean the ones used to cook these dishes?”

Old Master Gong immediately denied, “You heard wrong. I didn’t say that.”

“No, no, we didn’t hear wrong!” The two elders said in unison, “We’re not deaf yet!”

Then, Old Master Li stopped eating. He put down his chopsticks and walked directly to the kitchen. Old Master Leng immediately reacted and quickly followed.

Old Master Gong’s expression changed. “What are you doing?”

Old master Li said matter-of-factly, “What else are we doing? We’re taking the vegetables.”

They had to pick out the vegetables themselves. Or else, with Old Master Gong’s stingy nature, he would give them the not-so-good vegetables. So they had to take the initiative!

Old Master Gong also stopped eating. With his walking stick in hand, he walked swiftly towards the kitchen.

When he reached the kitchen, he saw two old men instructing his men, “Pack up this, that, and this for me…”

White and fat radishes, green and jade-like cabbages, cute and dark green cabbages, and red chilies, everything was so gorgeous, and the two elders wanted to bring them all home.

Old Master Gong’s face darkened, and he immediately stopped them. “Stop! You two bandits have taken away all my vegetables. What am I going to eat then? Put them down.”

“Like we’ll believe you.” As soon as old master Li said this, he looked at old master Gong suspiciously and said, “Old Gong, where are you hiding the good stuff?”

Old Master Gong immediately quivered and snorted, “What nonsense are you talking about? Do you think I’m like you two, who are so stingy? Plus, you’re already taking so much of my good stuff!”

Old Master Li and Old Master Leng looked at Old Master Gong even more suspiciously.

“What are you looking at?” Old Master Gong felt a little guilty from their looks and said loudly, “Alright, take your stuff and quickly scram! Don’t disturb my meal!”

Old Master Li was also thick-skinned. He snorted coldly and said, “Before we leave, we’ll finish eating first.”

“That’s right.” Old Master Leng nodded and echoed.

Old Master Gong, “…” these two thick-skinned people!

By the time they finished eating, there were only empty plates on the table.

These two thick-skinned people not only took away the fresh vegetables but also took away the rest of the dishes. They didn’t even leave any soup for him!

After they disappeared, Old Master Gong’s dark expression immediately changed, and he revealed a smug smile. Then, he instructed Xiao Wang, “Go, get someone to bring out the vegetables and fruits hidden in the warehouse. Thankfully, I didn’t bring out the fruits, or I won’t have a single one left!”

Xiao Wang couldn’t help but laugh, “Yes!”

…

When the two elders carried the things home in big and small bags, everyone was shocked.

“Master, what are you carrying? It looks so heavy, let me help.” The housekeeper of the Li family saw that Old Master Li carry the heavy things and immediately went to help.

“No, this is not heavy. I can carry it myself!” Old Master Li rejected the housekeeper and then said to the person carrying the things behind him, “Put the things in the kitchen and tell the chef to take good care of them.”

Old Master Li’s eldest son and daughter-in-law came over when they heard the noise. His son asked curiously when he saw the situation, “Dad, what are these things?” They were all packed in very ordinary woven belts and cardboard boxes. It was obvious that they were cheap. However, the fact that his father treated them so preciously made him curious.

Old master Li said, “Oh, those are all vegetables!”

“Ah, vegetables?” Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard this answer. What was so precious about some vegetables?

They hadn’t seen the old master treasure something like this, not even when they had the vegetables from Green Fresh supermarket.

“Vegetables? Dad, what vegetables are so precious?” Madam Li asked in surprise. “You don’t even treat the vegetables from Green Fresh as precious as this. Also, what are you holding in your hand? It’s black and ugly!”

Old Master Li said with slight displeasure, “These vegetables are harvested directly at Taoyuan Village. They are the real deal and taste much better than the ones in the supermarket. And I’m holding the health wine from Taoyuan Village.”

Master Li and his wife looked at each other, and then Master Li said with suspicion, “Vegetables from Green Fresh? Dad, where did you buy these? Did you get cheated? We all know that the things from Green Fresh are not easy to get. You took a stroll and easily came back with these things.”

“Yes, Dad,” Madam Li said carefully, “We have to be careful of scammers. Are these things really from Taoyuan Village?”

“How can you doubt me like that?” Old Master Li said unhappily, “I’m not senile. Do you think I’d be scammed so easily? Let me tell you. These are the real deal from Taoyuan Village. They are much better than the stuff sold at the supermarket. Xiao Chen, move these things to the kitchen. Be careful.”

“Yes, Old Master!” Xiao Chen replied very respectfully.

“Dad, don’t be scammed!” The Li family head suddenly raised his voice and shouted.

“You’re the one being scammed!” Old Master Li also said loudly and majestically, “I snatched these things from Old Gong. Do you know who old Gong’s granddaughter-in-law is?”

When the Li family heard this, they were a little stunned and couldn’t help but ask, “Who is it?”

Recently, news of Gong Tianhao marrying a wife and having children had spread like wildfire. Everyone was quite curious about Gong Tianhao’s wife’s identity.

But how would that have to do with the vegetables and wine?

Old Master Li said, “Old Gong’s granddaughter-in-law is the owner of the Taoyuan Village’s Green Fresh! Do you still think I’ve been scammed?”

“Ah?”
