373 Shameless Old Man 2

Giving him an inch and he would demand a mile. That was what Soujin thought about the old man in front of him. He clearly only said that he can visit his granddaughter once, but this shameless old man instead come every day during this week and accompanied the little lady.

"Grandpa, don't you have anything to do?" Jun Hua asked in a worried tone.

Jun Zhenxian just laughed, "There is nothing I need to do except accompanying my little granddaughter. This old bone is too old to work."

"Grandpa, I'm already married."

"Let's see, we can play chess in the garden with this good atmosphere..."

"Grandpa…"

Soujin had black lines appeared on his face when he saw how this shameless old man still being the same as always, "General Jun Zhenxian, would you please not bother us?"

Jun Zhenxian waved his hand, "Just for a few days is fine, right?"

'NO, it's not okay,' Jun Hua wanted to tell this to her grandfather badly. Still, she knew that this old man wouldn't back down just from her telling him something like that. He will just continue to pester them all day long.

"Xia, prepare some light dishes for us," Jun Hua finally gave up and instructed her servants.

"Yes Miss," Xia hurriedly scurried away and did her task.

"Come on, Hua'er, do you want to have a walk on the garden?" Jun Zhenxian asked with excited eyes.

Jun Hua sighed. She looked at her bulged stomach for a moment. Although she was pregnant, she didn't have many qualms to walk for a short while, so she was pretty sure that she would be fine if it was only a small walk with her grandfather.

"Just not too fast," Jun Hua nodded her head.

"Of course, I won't force you," Jun Zhenxian said happily.

Soujin shook his head and leaned in to kiss Jun Hua's forehead, "I have to go to the palace for today's morning court. My mother will come and accompany you in the afternoon."

"Okay, take care of yourself."

Without Soujin, Jun Zhenxian looked more comfortable. He walked at Jun Hua's pace to the garden and they took a seat in one of the small pavilions there. When Jun Hua wanted to sit down, he carefully helped her and didn't allow the servant to get close.

"You shouldn't have done that by yourself, Grandpa," Jun Hua said in a helpless tone.

"I want to," Jun Zhenxian shrugged, "You're already so big and to think that you used to be so cute when you first came to the residence."

"What is so cute about a little girl waving the sword all day?" Jun Hua tilted her head in confusion.

Jun Zhenxian pondered for a moment before shaking his head and laughed. In any case, she was still as cute as before in his view. Thankfully, she no longer dressed up as a man or he would not be able to accept a girl being more handsome than a genuine man.

"The food becomes even tasteless," Jun Zhenxian put the dish on his mouth and frowned.

Jun Hua smiled bitterly, "There are some food that I can't eat and some incompatible food because of my condition. Because of that, the variety of the food decrease and it's not as extravagant as before."

With their income, there was no way Jun Hua couldn't eat good food every day. However, she needed to eat food specialized for a pregnant woman, causing them to change their diet. In any case, Jun Hua didn't find them to be that bad compared to when she became the soldier on the frontline.

"Maybe I need to learn cooking," Jun Zhenxian commented.

"Better not, I still remembered how bad the food Grandpa cooked," Jun Hua hurriedly shook her head.

"That was because you're still too little to understand how delicious the food I cook," Jun Zhenxian retorted in a righteous tone. He believed that these two just not appreciated good foods. He was the greatest cook in this kingdom without any match! No one can make the same foods as him.

"…" in any case, I would never put those foods into my mouth ever again.

Because of their previous poor condition and lack of training equipment, Jun Zhenxian once brought Jun Hua to the forest to train for a week. During that time, this old man tried to cook, and Jun Hua found the food to be even deadlier than the most dangerous poison. In the end, she was the one cooking for the two of them and didn't allow her grandfather to get close to her when she was cooking.

If she knew what her grandfather was thinking right now, she would surely be utterly speechless. After all, it was the complete opposite. Her grandfather should have told anyone that he was the worst cook, which she would surely believe.

"I wonder how uncle can survived when he lived with you, Grandpa," Jun Hua grinned.

"Of course that was because the food I cooked was splendid. No restaurant would be good enough to serve the food I cooked," Jun Zhenxian laughed.

"… If there is a restaurant that dares to sell that food, I'm pretty sure the court will be filled with people complaining about them vehemently," Jun Hua shook her head.

"Don't underestimate your grandfather!"

"That is already overestimating," those foods would be capable of killing people. If the food was served in front of Yan, she would be pretty sure that the other party wouldn't be able to get out from bed because of food poisoning for days. Even people with a high tolerance of food like her cannot eat her grandfather's food, so there was no need to mention those with a tongue like Yan.

"Before Qin Shie come here, let's play a game of chess," Jun Zhenxian took the board out.

Jun Hua smiled and nodded her head, "I will defeat you, Grandpa."

"No way, I won't lose against you."

The two of them quickly started to play. On the side, Xia watched her Miss intently for she didn't want any mishap to happen to her.
