"I killed a young rooster and used it to make soup with dried scallops. I originally wanted to kill a duck, but all the ducks at home are female, so I couldn't bear to kill it."

Lu Fangfang, who was biting her chopsticks, was stunned for a moment, then immediately ran out.

Sure enough, one of the roosters in the yard was missing, and there was a pile of chicken feathers on the south side of the yard.

She turned and strode into the house, cradling her husband's head in her arms, and said with heartache, "When did you kill him? You didn't even tell me."

"I got up before dawn. Well, since roosters don't lay eggs anyway, there's no point in keeping them. This is a good opportunity to nourish you. Eat up."

Zhuang Mingcheng smiled and pushed his wife onto a chair.

Bear paws don't have a strong flavor, and if not prepared properly, they can taste fishy and smelly. You have to use other ingredients to enhance the flavor and aroma, which is unavoidable.

“We can’t even finish eating all the bear meat, and you’re still killing chickens… Oh well, fine, let them kill them. I was planning to kill a few when you got back anyway.”

Lu Fangfang was too lazy to think about it anymore; eating was the most important thing.

She picked up the spoon and quickly drank a few more mouthfuls.

No wonder it's so delicious! It has chicken, scallops, and lots of other ingredients. It would be strange if it weren't fragrant.

Seeing that her husband wasn't eating and was just looking at her, she took the chopsticks and put them in Zhuang Mingcheng's hand.

“You eat, don’t just make me take supplements. I can’t eat too much during my pregnancy, lest I overdo it. You’ve been busy for half a month and have lost weight, so you should take good care of yourself too. You’re actually losing out more than I am right now.”

Zhuang Mingcheng smiled and shook his head. He picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

He learned how to cook bear paws from an old hunter, and the first time he made it, it tasted really good.
