Glenn Hutchinson always cooked quickly. Kirana Williams and Flossie Wright hadn’t been chatting in the living room for long before he had all his dishes laid out. Little Hutchinson, seeing him serving the food, immediately jumped down from the sofa and quickly went to help grab bowls and chopsticks. Then he moved a stool to scoop rice. He was so polite that he seemed almost too good to be true.
However, neither Glenn Hutchinson nor Kirana Williams responded to his actions as if they were accustomed to them.
Having seen how Kirana Williams spoils Little Hutchinson, this attitude of watching him work came as a surprise to Flossie Wright.
It was not until ages later when she met the entire Hutchinson family that she realized that severity and indulgence are each other’s counterbalance. The elders always pamper the children, but the things they can do never stop them from doing so.
"Glenn, you didn’t add salt, did you?"
Kirana Williams sat at the dining table and eyed the dishes. She felt something was off. After tasting a bit, her expression changed, and she questioned Glenn Hutchinson.
Whether it was vegetables or meat, everything looked like it was cooked and served upon sight. It tasted bland.
Glenn Hutchinson said faintly, while he slightly hinted at Flossie Wright.
Kirana Williams strangely blinked her eyes and then looked at Flossie Wright with suspicion. In her gaze, there was some scrutiny, but more surprising than that.
The taste of her future daughter-in-law seems very peculiar. She always thought she could handle a bland diet but, if she has tasted the dishes, she found them tasteless. It would take a very tasteless person to adapt to this kind of diet.
She would have to watch out when cooking in the future.
Flossie Wright’s face turned somewhat dark as she was unwittingly labeled as having a "bland taste." She certainly did not think that Glenn Hutchinson would so childish as to let her bear the blame for his dissatisfaction.
The man, honestly, was enough.
However, one thing did catch her attention - most of the dishes on the table were her favorites.
"Delicious!"
Caught up in her thoughts, Little Hutchinson, with Kirana Williams’ approval, had already begun to eat his meal with gusto. He was enjoying the "bland-taste" food, looking quite contented, as if the dishes truly suited his taste.
Being able to raise a son who praises his cooking, Flossie Wright did feel happy for Glenn Hutchinson.
"If you think it’s delicious, then eat more."
Hearing Little Hutchinson’s words, Kirana Williams didn’t say anything else, and started serving more food for her grandson.
Meanwhile, Flossie Wright, who had been given a label, knew basic manners and naturally she wouldn’t spoil anyone’s fun at this time. Even if she didn’t pay much heed to Glenn Hutchinson, she needed to respect Kirana Williams.
So, after ignoring Glenn Hutchinson’s presence, Flossie Wright also started eating.
Anyway, anything cooked with fire was always better than cold canned food or military biscuits. So, she swallowed the meal.
Flossie was halfway through her meal when Glenn Hutchinson suddenly brought two more dishes from the kitchen, intentionally placing them in front of her.
Narrowing her cold eyes, Flossie shot him a glance, but didn’t react.
As a result, Glenn Hutchinson, sitting beside her, after glancing at her cold face, naturally picked up his chopsticks and picked up a piece of the newly served food to put into her bowl.
