Chapter 577 Plum Juice
I learned from Zhang Yali that Ning Jing is very particular about food, and that the food at Ning Jing's house is delicious. Wu Shuyuan cooked himself and prepared a large table of food.
There were only five of us: Ning Jing, Xiao San, Zhang Yali, Wu Shuyuan and Zhang Shuli. Wu Shuyuan prepared ten dishes, which was such a luxury in this frugal age. Even Sister Xiaocao could cook, but she had never prepared ten dishes at once.
The taste is just average. The main reason is that Wu Shuyuan is just an ordinary person after all. How can he be compared with Sister Xiaocao?
But Ning Jing didn't eat less either. The main reason was that she thought that if someone invited her to dinner, she should eat more. This was a way to show respect to the chef and the guests. This meant that Ning Jing was just overeating.
Zhang Yali laughed out loud and said, "Jingjing, the food my cousin's husband cooked is so delicious, but you actually ate too much. How many days have you not eaten? Did Xiaocao abuse you?"
Ning Jing glared at Zhang Yali and decided not to bother with Sister Yali before going home.
Wu Shuyuan also smiled and took out the sour plum juice he had prepared long ago and handed it to Ning Jing, saying, "Jingjing, try it. This sour plum juice was made yesterday and then left in the well for a day. Now is the perfect time to drink it."
Ning Jing took it. There was purple liquid inside, served in a white porcelain bowl. It looked nice and tasted good too.
Ning Jing took a sip and it was really delicious. Zhang Yali was a little jealous, wondering why her cousin-in-law only gave it to Ning Jing.
However, thinking about how she had just laughed at the little cutie, Zhang Yali thought for a moment and decided to call Ning Xiaosan and the others to get the sour plum juice from the well.
Ning Xiaosan felt that the drink must be delicious when he saw his sister drinking it, but Ning Xiaosan did not agree to go with Zhang Yali. The main reason was that his purpose of coming out this time was to protect his sister, so how could he just enjoy himself?
Ning Jing only took a sip before handing it to Ning Xiaosan and saying, "Brother Xiaosan, try it. It's delicious, sour, sweet, and refreshing. It's perfect after a meal."
Ning Xiaosan listened to his sister's words and smacked his lips, but only took a small sip. It tasted just as he had imagined, sour and sweet, really delicious.
However, Ning Xiaosan deliberately frowned and said, "This thing is too sweet. Brother doesn't like very sweet things."
Ningjing thought about it and yes, Xiao San Ge didn’t like to eat sweets. In the past, when there were no conditions, everyone liked to eat candy, but Xiao San Ge didn’t like to eat candy. He felt that the taste of candy was a bit greasy.
I seldom eat it, and even if I do eat it, I spit it out and throw it away when no one is around.
The main thing is that Ning Jing only saw it once, Xiao San Ge spit out the candy and threw it away, and his expression looked very painful.
In fact, after Ning Jing left, Ning Xiaosan picked up the candy again. He didn't even mind the dirt on it. He put it directly in his mouth and closed his eyes with great enjoyment.
Ning Xiaosan did that mainly because he didn't want to share his sister's candy. At that time, their conditions were not good, so he only bought a few pieces of candy for Ning Jing, and Ning Jing would share them with him every time she ate.
Ning Xiaosan wanted Ning Jing to eat more, as sugar was a good thing at that time.
So since that incident, Ning Jing no longer forced Ning Xiaosan to eat sweets.
In fact, Ning Xiaosan is a sweet tooth and really likes to eat sweets.
But on the surface, she had to pretend to hate sweets, and Ning Xiaosan felt very miserable.
But soon Zhang Yali came with two bowls of sour plum juice and handed one to Ning Xiaosan. Ning Xiaosan took it and was about to pass it to Ning Jing, but thought that although the sour plum juice was delicious, it was still a little cold and he couldn't drink too much. Ning Xiaosan had no choice but to accept it reluctantly.
