"You're such a child. Of course we have to buy you the best. Otherwise, how can we make you proud? Don't worry about it. Auntie has arranged everything. I'll make sure you can stand up straight!" Lin Shufang chuckled.

Lu Mo's lips curled slightly, his expression softening considerably, unlike his usual cold and hard demeanor.

"It smells so good! I'm so hungry. What did Yuanyuan make? I'm going to go see!" Tie Dan's mouth watered, and he got up and went to the kitchen.

He had lived for nineteen years and had never smelled anything so delicious. His stomach felt like it was being raked, he was so hungry he could have swallowed an elephant!

"It smells like fish, but we don't have any fish at home. What is Yuanyuan doing?"

Lin Shufang was also very curious, so she followed Tiedan to the kitchen. Soon after, the two of them came out with the dishes and placed them on the table.

"We're in for a treat today. Yuanyuan's cooking is better than even the head chef at a big restaurant. It's just like Wangjianglou ten years ago," Lin Shufang said with a smile.

She just tasted the fish-fragrant eggplant, and it tasted just like the Wangjianglou restaurant from ten years ago. Yuanyuan has completely inherited her father's culinary skills, and even surpassed him.

Fish-fragrant eggplant, crispy fried tofu rolls, dry-fried green beans, Xi Shi tofu, fish-fragrant shredded pork...

It was a feast for the eyes, nose, and palate, and the presentation was also beautiful. There were a few pretty flowers on the side of the plate, which looked very lifelike. If you looked closely, you could see that they were carved from carrots. It was also garnished with broccoli. An ordinary dish was instantly elevated to a high-class level, no less than that of a grand restaurant.

"Yuanyuan is still making braised pork, it will take a while, I need to learn how to make it. No wonder my braised pork always looked a little off, it turns out the procedure was wrong!"

Lin Shufang was in high spirits, helping Tang Yuanyuan with her cooking. She used to think she was pretty good at cooking, but after seeing Tang Yuanyuan's amazing dishes, she despised her own cooking skills from the bottom of her heart.

It's utterly beneath us!

"It smells so good... What delicious food are you making?" The old man came in from outside and smelled the tempting aroma in the yard. He quickened his pace and immediately saw Pipi lying on the windowsill with his eyes wide open.

"Hey, where did these dishes come from? Did you order them from a restaurant?" The old man noticed the dishes on the table; they were clearly not his eldest daughter-in-law's cooking.

Lin Shufang can only cook some home-style dishes; she doesn't know anything about plating or carving, and her dishes don't smell very good either.

"Dad, you're back? Wash your hands and eat! We're in for a treat today. Yuanyuan has really shown off her skills. Try some!" Lin Shufang came out carrying a plate of golden, fragrant sweet and sour pork.

Tie Dan also brought out a plate of spicy stir-fried snails, followed by Tang Yuanyuan with a plate of smashed cucumber. After leaving the kitchen, she reverted to her timid and cowardly self.

"It must be delicious. The aroma alone is enough to make my mouth water. With so many good dishes, I need to have a couple of drinks. Qing'er, go get the wine!" The old man was in high spirits.

Tang Yuanyuan's eyes lit up, and she straightened her back a little. She liked to cook, liked to cook for people who were good to her, and liked the atmosphere of the Lu family even more.

At home, she was always on edge, walking on thin ice, but when she arrived at the Lu family home, she could relax completely, especially with the kind and gentle Lin Shufang, who made her feel the warmth of a mother.

"Delicious...so delicious, my tongue is about to fall off! Battalion Commander, what are we going to do when we get back to the unit? The mess hall can't compare to Yuanyuan's cooking!"

Within minutes, Tiedan had eaten two bowls of rice, and suddenly felt inexplicably sad.

I wasn't a picky eater before because I hadn't eaten truly delicious food, but now...

After eating the food cooked by Tangyuanyuan, Tiedan felt that the cooks were making pig swill.
