Why did Su Tiantian's eyes flash with embarrassment when Xiao Huilin mentioned the cold chicken?
Because of this dish, she and Liu Jingze had a quarrel, which can be considered a quarrel, right?
Su Tiantian didn't know whether she was woken up by the kicks of the two babies in her belly or by hunger. She turned over from her side sleep and felt that the two babies were a little excited. Liu Jingze's arms skillfully wrapped around her belly. Su Tiantian knew that this was his subconscious reaction and he was not really awake, but if she got up, she would definitely wake him up.
Never mind, it was too uncomfortable. I felt so hungry and wanted to eat something. I should get up. Su Tiantian slowly propped up her upper body and woke up Liu Jingze. His tired voice rang out in the darkness: "Sister Tiantian, what's wrong? Is your leg cramp?"
Su Tiantian said softly: "Brother Jing, go to sleep. I want to get up and eat something."
How could Liu Jingze continue to sleep peacefully? He helped Su Tiantian sit up, then turned on the bedside lamp, stuffed a pillow behind her back, and said, "Tiantian sister, what do you want to eat?"
Su Tiantian leaned against the headboard and said, "I don't know. I'll go to the kitchen to see if there's anything to eat. What time is it now?"
Liu Jingze took the phone on the bedside table and looked at it: "1:16 am."
Su Tiantian said, "Then I'll change my clothes first and then go to the kitchen." She didn't dare walk around the house in her pajamas. There were elders, bodyguards and drivers at home, and it would not be good to dress inappropriately.
Su Tiantian, who was changing clothes, looked at the refrigerator in the kitchen on the third floor again and again. Although there was a lot of food, she didn't feel like eating it, so Liu Jingze accompanied her to the kitchen on the first floor.
"Tiantian, what do you want to eat? Do you need to go out and buy it?" Liu Jingze felt a little distressed when he saw Su Tiantian frowning in front of the refrigerator.
Su Tiantian said hesitantly, "I want to eat cold chicken and wonton noodles."
It's no wonder that Su Tiantian was so hesitant. It's actually not easy to make cold chicken. First, clean the chicken thighs, add ginger and green onions, blanch them in water and cook them, let them cool, remove the bones and tear the meat into strips, stir-fry peanuts, wash the cucumber and cut it into small pieces, add chili oil, green onion segments, minced garlic, sugar, chicken essence, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar and other seasonings, then mix them in a large bowl and serve. The whole process will take at least half an hour.
Su Tiantian's hesitation wasn't because the dish was difficult to make, but because her nanny, Lan Jie, couldn't make it. The only person in the family who could cook it was Liu Liangjie (who had only done it a few days ago, to encourage his daughter-in-law to eat more). As for Liu Jingze? He only knew the theory (how to make it), but he couldn't actually cook it.
Liu Jingze knew the reason for Su Tiantian's hesitation, and said without even thinking, "I'll ask Dad to get up and do it."
Before Su Tiantian could stop him, he had already called Liu Liangjie, who quickly answered the phone. As expected, he wasn't angry, having gotten up in the middle of the night to make a midnight snack for his daughter-in-law. Sister Lan was also awake, helping in the kitchen. Seeing Liu Liangjie and Sister Lan busy at work, Su Tiantian inexplicably became angry and wanted to argue with Liu Jingze.
She sat on the sofa in the living room, hugging her pillow, and complained to Liu Jingze who was sitting next to her: "Why did you wake up Dad? You are embarrassed, but I am not."
Liu Jingze said as if it was a matter of course: "Dad is one of us, I am not afraid to wake him up. If you are hungry and want to eat something, you must make it immediately, otherwise you will feel uncomfortable."
Su Tiantian felt very irritated. Seeing that they were the only two people in the living room, she stood up and hit Liu Jingze with a pillow. She lowered her voice and said, "Others will think that I, as a daughter-in-law, am overbearing and rude, asking my father-in-law to make midnight snacks."
Being hit by the pillow didn't hurt, but Liu Jingze was afraid that Su Tiantian would pull her stomach, so he snatched the pillow away, hugged Su Tiantian and said, "Who said that? Tiantian, you don't have to think too much about it. He's worried about bothering his father. He did it willingly. It's his son's fault for not being a good cook. Besides, it was me who asked Dad to make supper, not you."
Su Tiantian puffed up her cheeks angrily, and Liu Jingze took the opportunity to kiss her: "Tiantian is cute even when she's a little angry. Don't worry, Daddy won't blame you. If there's anything wrong, it's all my fault. It's not your fault that the babies are hungry."
Su Tiantian's belly was heaving, as if she was agreeing with Liu Jingze's words. Liu Jingze gently pressed the area where her belly was bulging with his left hand.
Su Tiantian said a little aggrievedly, "I don't know why I suddenly wanted to eat cold chicken. I obviously didn't like spicy food before. I don't know why I suddenly got angry. I used to be able to control my temper."
Liu Jingze patiently comforted her: "Tiantian, there's no reason. It's just that you're pregnant and sometimes you'll feel this way. Don't think too much or feel stressed. Eat whatever you want as long as it doesn't affect the baby. If you're in a bad mood, just let it out. I don't mind being hit by a pillow or a doll."
Su Tiantian was much calmer at this time: "Brother Jing, thank you."
Since Liu Liangjie got up to make midnight snacks, of course he wouldn't just make one for Su Tiantian. With Sister Lan's help, he made snacks for several people.
Looking at Su Tiantian who was eating with gusto, Liu Liangjie said, "It's good that Tiantian has an appetite. Just tell me what you want to eat in the future."
Liu Jingze put down his chopsticks and said, "Silly Tiantian, I said I was sorry for waking you up. You were blaming me just now."
Liu Liangjie laughed heartily: "Tiantian, you know how good your own brother Jing is at cooking. It's convenient to go out and buy it during the day. In the middle of the night, Sister Lan can't make supper, so I have to make it. I have already taught Sister Lan once, and she will try to make it when she is free during the day."
Su Tiantian said weakly, "I'm afraid that in a few days, I won't like eating cold chicken anymore."
Liu Liangjie said, "It doesn't matter. Pregnant women have a variety of tastes. Just tell me what you like. If I can't cook it, there are other chefs who can. I know a lot of people in the food industry. We can't let our Liu family's pregnant daughter-in-law starve."
