"Come, let me taste it and see how salty it is." Lin Shuang looked at Nan Xin, who clearly looked like she wanted to eat it, but was trying hard to swallow her saliva, staring at the meat in the pot.

The smoky aroma drifted into everyone's nose and into the hearts of several people.

Even when I become rich and powerful in the future, I will still feel that the taste at this moment is more deeply rooted in people's hearts and will be unforgettable.

"Is it really possible?"

Xiao Nanxin looked at his stepmother's slender hands holding chopsticks to pick up a piece of crystal clear, rich-colored square of braised pork. Xiao Nanxin felt that the taste was even more fragrant.

Although he swallowed his saliva unwillingly, he still didn't dare to open his mouth to eat the meat. He lowered his head, and his little hands nervously tugged at his rag-like clothes, trying his best not to look at the tempting and delicious braised pork.

"Why don't you eat it?" Lin Shuang still felt a little confused. It looked like he liked it, and his cooking skills were pretty good, otherwise he wouldn't be able to teach it live.

"Stepmother, you haven't eaten yet, you eat first." Xiao Nanxin raised his head and nodded, his voice as small as a mosquito.

Lin Shuang then remembered that the original owner would never let them eat first. The original owner must eat first. If they ate first, they would be beaten.

He calmed himself down and looked at the pitiful Xiao Nanxin with pity, his voice unconsciously becoming softer.

"I agree. You eat it first and let me taste it to see how my stepmother cooks it. Is it delicious?"

"Really? Then, I'll try a small bite." Xiao Nanxin said in surprise, with some light in his eyes, and took a small bite carefully.

As soon as I took a bite, I felt the sweet and salty taste on the tip of my tongue, as well as an indescribable fragrance. It was a delicacy that I had never tasted before.

His eyes lit up, he smiled widely, and his voice was filled with excitement.

"Stepmother, the meat is so delicious. I have never eaten such delicious meat before."

When Lin Shuang heard this compliment, she smiled and said, "That's right, my craftsmanship is not exaggerated."

Wild boar meat is naturally fishier and tougher than domestic pig meat. Lin Shuang used some spices and stewed it for a longer time, and it tastes good now.

"When all the food is ready, we'll eat together, okay?" Lin Shuang touched Xiao Nanxin's furry head. It felt pretty good, a bit like touching a chicken. A child's head is really nice to touch.

"Okay." Xiao Nanxin smiled contentedly. Suddenly, there was a sound at the door, and Lin Shuang smiled secretly.

The three kids outside the door gathered together to look at the scene inside. To be honest, it was impossible not to be envious, but because their stepmother had too many criminal records, they would not completely believe what Lin Shuang said and could only pretend to be nice to her.

Smelling the fragrant braised pork, several people were a little intoxicated.

They were watching here only because the younger sister was inside and they were afraid that this vicious stepmother would do something to her. It was definitely not because they were attracted by the braised pork, absolutely not.

"What are you guys doing hiding there?" Lin Shuang shouted.

Several people were immediately frightened and shuddered. They popped their heads out and looked at the two people.

Under Lin Shuang's encouraging gaze, Xiao Nanxin was eating the remaining half piece of braised pork. When he heard the noise, he immediately turned around to look.

The three of them saw that the little sister's cheeks were puffed up and moving, and the oil at the corners of her mouth was shining.

"Big brother, second sister, third brother, the braised pork is delicious."

The three of them thought to themselves, of course I know it’s delicious. You’re eating so much that you almost forgot about us three.

Seeing the eagerness of the three people, Lin Shuang smiled quietly, "Come here, each of you have a taste."

The three of them's eyes lit up and they immediately ran to Lin Shuang.

He stared at Lin Shuang eagerly, like a dog blinking its big wet eyes.

Lin Shuang immediately took three pieces of braised pork from the pot and placed them on the plate. "Eat it."

The plate was gently pushed forward and in the blink of an eye it was in front of the three people.

The three of them's eyes lit up and they immediately picked up the food and put it in their mouths. Xiao Jingyu couldn't wait for Xiao Ce to take the chopsticks from his hand and started eating directly.

"It's hot, hot, hot!" Xiao Jingyu shouted. Even though it was very hot, he was reluctant to spit it out. After a while, the meat of the three people was in his mouth.

After eating, you still have to savor it.

Xiao Ce suddenly blushed a little. He had eaten all kinds of delicious food in the East Palace before, so why was he so greedy for this piece of meat now? Maybe it was because he hadn't eaten it for a long time and his body was acting up.

Xiao Wangshu also liked the taste, but he was a little confused. When did the bad woman become such a good cook? Even though he had never eaten the meat she cooked before, the difference shouldn't be that big.

This doubt planted a seed in Xiao Wangshu's heart.

"Brother, second sister, third brother, is it delicious?" Xiao Nanxin quietly approached the three of them.

"Well, not bad." Xiao Ce felt that this was the most delicious meal he had eaten in recent years.

"I like it very much." Xiao Wangshu smiled embarrassedly.

Xiao Nanxin looked at Xiao Jingyu again, waiting for his answer.

Seeing his younger sister staring at him eagerly, he felt a little uncomfortable. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that the bad woman Lin Shuang was also looking at him.

"It's just so-so, just average." After saying that, he glanced at Lin Shuang's face. She wasn't as angry as he had imagined. He pursed his lips and lowered his head.

"Second brother, you are lying. It's obviously delicious, huh." Xiao Nanxin couldn't stand Xiao Jingyu's hurtful words every time, so he looked at Xiao Jingyu angrily.

"That's right." Xiao Jingyu said and ran out.

The remaining three people were in a bad mood. Lin Shuang, the person involved, didn't have any thoughts and was determined to correct Xiao Jingyu.

Xiao Jingyu ran out and went directly to Xiao Yi's room.

"Dad, do you think I did something wrong? But I just can't control myself. Whenever I see Lin Shuang's face, I can remember how she beat me. Although, she is a little different today, I don't know if she is pretending."

Xiao Jingyu sat beside Xiao Yi's bed in a somewhat depressed mood, touching Xiao Yi's hand.

"Dad, when will you wake up? I miss the days when you took me up the mountain. And my grandparents, they're not here anymore. I really want to go back to the days when we were a family of seven."

Unfortunately, only the wind responded to him.

Lin Shuang then made spicy rabbit meat. Rabbit meat is chewy and needs to be cooked for a long time.

This era is a fictional era in the book. Everything like peppers are available, which makes it convenient for Lin Shuang. There are strings of bright red chili peppers hanging at the door. She picked a few at the door, washed and cut them, and put them into the pot to stir-fry. In an instant, the pungent aroma hit her face.

"Ahem, ahem, stepmother, what are you doing?"

Xiao Nanxin coughed a few times and then moved closer to Lin Shuang.
