Chapter 7 Spraying fragrance to tempt

people Fang Shijun happily and naturally reached out to tuck the strands of hair on Fang Xiaoluo's forehead behind her ears, "Look, what can I do?"

Fang Xiaoluo thought for a while, "Dad, are there any potatoes at home? Help me get five or six."

She thought that the Fang family had a large population, including herself, there were seven people eating dinner in the evening.

Without other dishes, it might not be enough.

Heat the oil in the wok, put a big fish into the wok, and after frying, both sides turned into an attractive golden color. Cook it with vinegar, and the smell spread, not to mention how fragrant it was.

Add soup, scallions, ginger, etc. The pot was bubbling, and the fresh fragrance was drilling into the nose.

Then, Fang Xiaoluo washed the pork belly and scraped the skin to avoid any peculiar smell when making the braised pork. Cut the

pork belly into large pieces and set aside.

Peel the potatoes, cut into strips, and soak them in water. Beat the tofu into pieces.

The preparations were done in one go.

She washed the rice, put it directly into a layer, and put it on the fish pot, steaming a large pot of rice.

In another pot, heat oil and sugar in a pot until the color turns red. Put the large pieces of meat into the pot with a "sizzling" sound, and start stir-frying until every piece of meat is red. Fang Xiaoluo then adds water and various ingredients and simmers slowly.

Before long, the kitchen was filled with the aroma of fish, rice, and braised pork, which was so tempting.

Calculating the time, Fang Xiaoluo served some fish soup and prepared to add some tofu to make it lighter for Zhang Xinyan.

The fish soup at this time was just the right milky white color, with a fresh and tempting fragrance.

The remaining ingredients continued to stew.

At about five o'clock, Fang Xiaoluo had just brought out the rice and fish and sprinkled coriander on it when someone came back from outside.

"Mom, are you well?"

"Mom, what day is it today? What delicious food did you make? Why does it smell so good!"

The three of them walked in with their schoolbags on their backs. When they saw Fang Xiaoluo in the kitchen, they were dumbfounded.

Fang Shijun hurried to introduce Fang Xiaoluo.

"Xiaoluo, this is Fang Jie, Fang Yamei, and Fang Yating."

Fang Xiaoluo knew that these were the original owner's younger brother and two younger sisters.

My younger brother Fang Jie is now a sophomore in high school in the provincial capital.

Fang Yamei is now a sophomore in junior high school in town, and Fang Yating should be in the sixth grade of elementary school now, and will be able to go to junior high school in the second half of the year.

Speaking of which, even though the Fang family is so poor, they have not given up on letting their children go to school.

Even Xu Yaqiu, the Fang family has always supported her to go to school, but she herself did not even pass the high school entrance examination after finishing junior high school.

"Xiaojie, Yamei, Yating, this is your eldest sister, Fang Xiaoluo."

The three were dumbfounded. They had heard before that their biological sister did not want to come back.

Fang Yating was the youngest and spoke quickly, "Eldest sister? Didn't you say you would not come back before?"

Fang Yamei poked Fang Yating, signaling her to stop talking nonsense.

Fang Xiaoluo didn't care. She rubbed Fang Yating's head, "Big sister didn't know you were so pretty and cute before, but now she knows, so she hurried back to be your big sister."

Fang Yating nodded obediently, "Big sister smells so good and is so pretty."

Fang Jie was older after all, and stared at Fang Xiaoluo with suspicion.

He knew that his mother came back from the rain yesterday and was sad for a long time.

His mother was sick when she went to school this morning.

Just as he was about to speak, Fang Qiang, the eldest son of the Fang family, who worked in Jiangcheng, came back.

"What are you all doing in the kitchen? Why does it smell so good today?" Fang Qiang asked, "Dad, where did you get the fish and meat?"

"Your sister Xiaoluo bought it." Fang Shijun said.

Fang Qiang walked in and saw the graceful girl in the kitchen at a glance.

"Are you Xiaoluo?"

"Hello, big brother." Fang Xiaoluo greeted him openly.

Fang Qiang looked Fang Xiaoluo up and down. He was curious before and went to Xu's house twice, wanting to see what his own sister looked like, but he never saw anyone.

His mother came back from the rain yesterday, and he hated her so much.

He hated Xu Yaqiu, this ungrateful person, and also hated Fang Xiaoluo for not coming out to see his mother.

But now Fang Xiaoluo was standing in front of him, smiling, and he couldn't hate her anymore.

This feeling was very subtle.

"You're back today, are you leaving?"

Fang Xiaoluo knew what Fang Qiang cared about, "No, unless you don't want me."

Fang Qiang walked over and rubbed her head, "It's good that you're back."

Fang Xiaoluo responded with a big smile. It's true that the Fang family has good genes. Fang Qiang and Fang Jie are both very handsome. Fang Yamei and Fang Yating are also beautiful in their own ways.

Fang Shijun sighed that their family was finally reunited.

Fang Xiaoluo called out, "Wash your hands, I'll make two more dishes, and then we'll eat."

Fish, braised pork, and white rice were served on the table, making everyone drool.

Fang Xiaoluo also made braised tofu, stir-fried shredded potatoes, and then stewed the remaining tofu with fish soup.

All the dishes were served, and Zhang Xinyan woke up.

After sleeping for a while, she felt that her fever had subsided and her illness was cured all of a sudden.

The dishes on the table now looked like the New Year's Day, with good color, aroma and taste.

The seven people sat around the table. Fang Xiaoluo put the tofu fish soup in front of Zhang Xinyan, "Mom, this is light, just right for nourishing the body."

Zhang Xinyan was extremely moved. She took a sip of the soup, and the fragrance lingered on her lips and teeth. "It tastes good, really good."

Fang Xiaoluo picked the part of the fish belly with fewer bones and gave it to Zhang Xinyan, and also picked up some shredded potatoes for her.

When she looked up again, several people were all looking at her, and no one picked up their chopsticks.

She smiled and looked at the others, "Eat it all, you're welcome."

Fang Jie and the others saw Fang Shijun and Fang Qiang pick up their chopsticks, and thought about it and picked up a piece of the bright red, trembling red braised pork.

You know, it has been a long time since the Fang family had eaten meat like this.

Even during the Chinese New Year, they had never eaten like this.

As soon as the meat entered the mouth, it was wrapped in a thick sauce, and the mouth was full of fragrance.

Fatty but not greasy, it melts in the mouth, and even the lean meat in the middle is stewed to be soft and fragrant. It makes people want to swallow the tongue together.

The meal can be said to be a whirlwind, and in the end even the fish soup and the braised pork broth were mixed with the rice by everyone, making it clean and tidy.

Fang Yamei covered her stomach and praised again and again, "Sister, your cooking skills are so good."

"Sister will cook for you often in the future." Fang Xiaoluo said.

Fang Yamei thought about the delicious dinner just now, "But it's too expensive, we haven't eaten like this in the past few years."

Fang Xiaoluo said, "I didn't know you existed before, I will try to make sure you have meat every meal in the future."

Fang Yamei's eyes sparkled, and she didn't know why, she just wanted to believe in this new sister.

Fang Yating also burped, "Sister, I feel like I haven't eaten such a full meal in my life."

Fang Xiaoluo laughed at her, "How old are you, just in this life."

Fang Jie looked at it, said nothing, and cleaned up the dishes and went to wash the dishes.

Fang Qiang saw that Zhang Xinyan was in good spirits, "Mom, how do you feel?"

"I feel better all of a sudden since your sister came back. I don't have a fever anymore, and I don't feel uncomfortable anymore. I just ate a bowl and a half of rice."

Fang Xiaoluo was chatting with Zhang Xinyan and Fang Shijun. Fang Jie and the others went to do their homework, and Fang Qiang went to sweep the yard and chop firewood.

The family was busy with their own things, and from time to time, villagers ran to the door to ask about Fang Qiang and Fang Xiaoluo.

After Fang Qiang and his family finished their family affairs, Fang Xiaoluo heard Fang Qiang taking Fang Yamei and Fang Yating to work in the fields.

On the other side, over at Zhou Yanwen's place, his brother Zhou Qingyou, who was in the first year of high school, sneaked into his room after dinner.

Zhou Yanwen was upset. Since he saw Fang Xiaoluo today, he has been thinking about her all the time. This has never happened before.

Fang Xiaoluo follows him every day. It is up to him whether he wants to pay attention to her or not.

He thought Fang Xiaoluo would come to see him in the afternoon, but she hasn't shown up yet.

"What are you doing here?" Zhou Yanwen was upset.

Zhou Qingyou didn't care, "Brother, guess who I saw at the gate of the embroidery factory today?"

Zhou Yanwen leaned on the bed, unhappily, "See whoever you want, get out."

Zhou Qingyou said quickly, "Brother, I saw Fang Xiaoluo. The people from the embroidery factory gave her money. It was a lot of money, a thick stack. I saw it clearly."

Zhou Yanwen suddenly became alert and sat up abruptly, "Really?"

"My school is just opposite the embroidery factory, how can I lie to you." Zhou Qingyou chuckled, "Brother, I... I have spent all my pocket money, can you..."

"Get out!" Zhou Yanwen kicked him, "You're skipping classes again, be careful or I'll tell my parents, get out!"

Zhou Qingyou snorted, "You're such a jerk, I shouldn't have told you."

The door closed again, and the haze in Zhou Yanwen's heart was swept away.

You know, Fang Xiaoluo would buy him something the next day after getting his wages from the embroidery factory. If he said he had no money to spend, Fang Xiaoluo would save money and give it to him.

The last time they went to the department store together, Fang Xiaoluo said that she would buy him a pair of new leather shoes next time she got her wages.

If it weren't for that bitch Chen Meijun, who always kept Fang Xiaoluo from giving her money, she would have bought it for herself a long time ago.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yanwen's face showed a look of expectation and a bit of disgust. Just wait and see. Tomorrow Fang Xiaoluo will definitely come to him with the pair of leather shoes to ask for compensation.
