Yang Suiyi is a total homebody whose favorite pastime is writing novels on various websites. However, she inevitably abandons every single one, earning curses from countless readers while gleefully...
Sui Yi checked the time; it was already noon. She threw back the covers, got out of bed, and went to the bathroom to wash up. Just as she reached the bottom of the stairs, she heard Long Molin grunt. "Huh! Is there a pig in this house? I just heard a pig grunt," Sui Yi said feigning surprise, avoiding looking at Long Molin.
Long Molin was furious. Wasn't this blatantly calling him a pig? He immediately stood up and shouted, "Chu Tangxi, say it again if you dare!"
"I told you, do you dare hit me?" he said, before adding another sentence.
This was no small matter; it completely ignited the fury of the tyrannical dragon. Long Molin rushed angrily towards Sui Yi, reaching out to grab her wrist. But Sui Yi, who was prepared, grabbed his hand instead, using the principle of using minimal force to deflect a great weight, and slammed him heavily to the ground.
"Ah! Damn it, you violent woman, I'm going to let my brother see your true colors. Damn it, help me up. Is my back broken? I can't feel anything."
"‖" Watching the person who was so engrossed in acting, grimacing and exaggerating in pain on the ground, he couldn't help but feel annoyed. "That's enough! If you keep pretending, I'll fall again."
Hearing this threat, the man groaning on the ground scrambled to his feet. "Hmph! Woman, I wasn't prepared. Come at me again if you dare!" he shouted, charging at Sui Yi once more. Sui Yi grabbed his hand, flipped him over, and kicked Long Molin in the back of the knee, forcing him to kneel on the ground.
"Ah! Ancestor, it hurts, it hurts, be gentle!" The hand being held behind the back felt like it was about to break, and the pain made the person's face change involuntarily as they cried out.
"Want to come again?" Sui Yi raised an eyebrow.
"No, I'm not coming," Long Molin replied without any backbone.
Sui Yi released Long Molin without even glancing at him, and headed straight for the kitchen. She had only had a bowl of porridge this morning, and although she had only moved around a bit, she had still burned some energy. Now she was hungry. She picked up the apron hanging on the rack, put the rice in the pot, opened the refrigerator, found the ingredients, and planned to make a plate of sweet and sour pork ribs and a pot of three-delicacy soup.
Looking at the ingredients, Suiyi decided to make sweet and sour pork ribs first. She sliced the ginger, gathered all the seasonings, found a pot, added an appropriate amount of water and brought it to a boil. She then added cooking wine and ginger slices, blanched the ribs, and removed them. She added oil to the pot and poured in rock sugar to caramelize it. After the rock sugar melted, she waited until the oil foamed and started to turn yellow before adding the ribs. She quickly stir-fried them to coat them with the caramelized sugar, then added light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, rice vinegar, white sugar, and enough boiling water to cover the ribs. She first brought it to a boil over high heat, then reduced it to medium-low heat and simmered for 40 minutes. She added salt and waited for the sauce to thicken over high heat before plating. Next, she prepared to make three-delicacy soup.
The timing was perfect; the rice was cooked just as the dishes were done. Sui Yi first plated the dishes and took them out, then went into the kitchen to get the soup. She had barely reached the doorway when she saw someone reach out with an evil hand to grab the fragrant ribs.
"Hmph!" Sui Yi snorted, and then saw someone quickly retract their claws.
"Sister Xi, is there anything else I can help you with?" Long Molin asked with a fawning smile.
"Go and bring out the rice, and also get four bowls."
"Alright!" Long Molin said and walked towards the kitchen.
In the dining room, Long Molin said, "Sister Xi, your cooking is so delicious." He ate heartily.
"Click!" The door opened, and Long Moting returned, but neither of them greeted him. Watching Sui Yi and Mo Lin eat lunch, a pang of unease swept over him. He had drunk some wine earlier and hadn't eaten much, but seeing the two of them enjoying their meal made him incredibly hungry.
She automatically went to the kitchen to get bowls and chopsticks, and sat down next to Suiyi to start eating.
Seeing his older brother about to take the food from him, the boy quickly scooped the few remaining ribs into his own bowl. Only four pieces remained on the plate. He reached for his chopsticks again. "Hmph! Mo Lin, Mom just called and said she's coming to your place later," Long Moting snorted at Mo Lin.
"...I have to go now, otherwise if Mom finds my treasure, it'll be confiscated!" With that, she hurriedly put down her chopsticks and ran outside. She turned back after a few steps, stuffed a piece of pork rib into her mouth, and then went out again.
