Bai Qianmo prepared four dishes and a soup.

The colors are quite pleasing to the eye.

After Ji Cong'an and Yuan You sat down, they both looked at Gu Jueye with unison.

Bai Qianmo put down her chopsticks and sat down next to Gu Jueye.

"Try it!"

Gu Jueye blinked slightly and nodded.

I picked up my chopsticks, took a piece of braised beef, and ate it slowly.

Judging from his expression, it didn't seem like it was bad.

Ji Cong'an felt a little relieved, picked up his chopsticks, and took a piece of steamed crucian carp that was closest to him.

The moment the fish hit his mouth, his entire face contorted in pain.

How could a steamed crucian carp be undercooked?

Wow, you're amazing, sister-in-law!

No wonder the lord looked so knowing when he heard that his sister-in-law was going to cook.

The food my sister-in-law makes isn't just expensive, it's deadly!

He feels nauseous, what should I do?

Seeing Gu Jueye still eating without changing his expression, Ji Cong'an's forehead was covered in black lines.

I secretly gave him a thumbs up!

The lord can eat such disgusting food; he truly is a man who spoils his wife to the point of risking his life.

Ji Cong'an turned his gaze slightly and looked at Yuan You, who was also suffering terribly.

Yuan You felt uneasy under Ji Cong'an's gaze.

Ji Cong'an raised an eyebrow and smiled: "Why are you eating so little? You just said you hadn't eaten all day. This plate of braised beef looks good, try some!"

"I...I'm full."

With lightning speed, Ji Cong'an picked up a piece of braised beef and threw it into Yuan You's bowl.

Yuan You wasn't given a chance to refuse at all.

Gu Jueye raised his eyes slightly, his deep gaze fixed on the piece of braised beef.

I feel very reluctant to part with it.

Seeing his boss staring at him, Yuan You mistakenly thought that his boss was telling him to give Miss Bai face, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and eat.

One bite, and the rich aroma of braised meat filled my mouth.

Yuan You's face was full of astonishment.

Could it be that there's something wrong with my taste buds?

The dishes on this table were either undercooked or too salty, and even the tomato and egg soup had suspicious eggshells floating on top.

But this braised beef tasted surprisingly delicious.

Ji Cong'an was waiting for Yuan You to make a fool of himself, but what happened next made him feel strange.

Yuan You picked up several pieces of braised beef and ate them with great relish.

Ji Cong'an frowned slightly and looked at Bai Qianmo and Gu Jueye opposite him.

Gradually, he noticed something was amiss.

It seemed that after the food was served, the Duke and his sister-in-law only ate braised beef.

Driven by curiosity, Ji Cong'an also tried a piece.

I almost cried tears of joy.

He had tasted this flavor once before at the Duke's house.

That time, he happened to run into the Duke having lunch, and since he hadn't eaten himself, he just mooched a meal.

As a result, he tasted this unforgettable braised beef.

After becoming familiar with the Duke, he often went to the Gu family's house for meals.

He could taste the flavors of the food prepared by the Gu family's chef even with his eyes closed, but he had never eaten this braised beef before.

After much pleading and cajoling, the lord admitted that the dish was made by a newly hired chef.

But he has never tasted that flavor since then.

Could it be that the braised beef dish from back then was made by my sister-in-law?

That's not right. Back then, he and the Duke were only sixteen or seventeen years old. His sister-in-law is twenty years old this year, six years younger than the Duke. She was just a ten-year-old girl back then. How could she possibly make this dish?

Moreover, my sister-in-law really doesn't seem to have any talent for cooking.

With a heart full of questions, the plate full of braised beef was quickly emptied by Yuan You and Ji Cong'an.

Bai Qianmo ate less and was the first to put down her chopsticks.

He rested his chin on one hand, his indifferent gaze sweeping across the dining table.

Apart from the braised beef, the other dishes were almost untouched.

It seems her cooking skills haven't improved much!
