Liu Chunping took Cao Dejun and He Xiuzhen into the room prepared for them and let them rest for a while. Liu Guoxing happened to pour a cup of brown sugar water for his uncle and aunt, and he also told Liu Yanran and Cao Cuilan.
After a while, Liu Yanran and Cao Cuilan brought over a bowl of noodles, "Uncle and aunt, have a bowl of noodles first." It was past three in the afternoon, not time for dinner, so Liu Yanran made a bowl of noodles for the two of them.
"Good boy, why waste these food? Let's eat together later." The Cao family is also well-off, but they also eat a mixture of white flour and coarse grains. Looking at this bowl of white flour noodles topped with meat and small green vegetables, it looks very tempting.
"Aunt, you must not have eaten or rested well in the car. We have the facilities at home, so hurry up and eat while it's hot!" Liu Yanran remembered that when she was still mentally retarded, her cousins had always protected her when she went to the Cao family. They would always save the good food for her and never treat her badly. So people should be grateful, and she hoped that her uncle and aunt would also be rewarded for their kindness.
The two of them ate the hot noodles with touched faces. Liu Yanran was a good cook and she was generous with the ingredients, so the taste was naturally good. They quickly finished even the soup. "Yanran, your cooking skills are really good. Whoever marries you in the future will be blessed."
Liu Yanran smiled shyly, then cleaned up the dishes and went out. The two of them must be tired after running all the way, so they should take a rest.
After Liu Guoxing and Liu Chunping returned the car to the hot pot restaurant, they walked in together. The restaurant was filled with the rich aroma of hot pot, making people salivate. Liu Guoxing took out a piece of paper from his pocket, which listed the vegetables he wanted to buy the next day. He carefully handed the paper to Gu Shimiao.
Gu Shimiao took the note and read it carefully. His eyes were focused and serious, as if he was thinking about something. After a while, she raised her head and said to Liu Guoxing with a smile: "Don't worry, Guoxing, I will purchase it according to your requirements."
Liu Guoxing nodded, patted Gu Shimiao on the shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Sister Shimiao. The purchasing here will be handed over to you for the time being. Feel free to tell me if you have any questions." His family is now preparing for his and Deng Wanjun's wedding. Gao Zhonghua and Li Hua have returned to Su City. The only person they can trust here is Gu Shimiao.
Gu Shimiao said firmly: "No problem, I will definitely do a good job of purchasing." After that, she turned and walked out of the hot pot restaurant, preparing to go to the market to purchase the ingredients needed for the next day.
When they got home, Liu Yanran and Cao Cuilan's dinner was almost ready. After a busy afternoon in the kitchen, they finally prepared a sumptuous meal. Although there were only six people in the family, there were quite a few dishes on the table. Each dish, though small in portion, looked incredibly delicious.
The table was filled with delicious dishes, including braised pork, sweet and sour spare ribs, steamed fish, and cabbage in vinegar. These dishes were not only vibrant in color but also fragrant, mouth-watering. Each dish was the product of Liu Yanran and Cao Cuilan's meticulous preparation, embodying their love and care for their family.
The braised pork is a delicate blend of fat and lean, with a soft, melt-in-your-mouth texture. The sweet and sour spare ribs are perfectly balanced, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, leaving a lasting impression. The steamed fish is juicy and fresh, preserving the original flavor of the fish. The braised cabbage in vinegar is refreshing and delicious, both refreshing and appetizing. In addition, there are several other home-style dishes, combining meat and vegetables for a balanced nutritional experience.
Liu Yanran smiled and said to Liu Guoxing, "Fourth brother, go call my uncle and aunt to come for dinner. We've prepared a sumptuous meal today, including Maotai. We can have a drink later." Liu Guoxing nodded and ran happily to call his uncle and aunt.
Soon, Cao Dejun and He Xiuzhen arrived at the table. Everyone sat around and began to enjoy the delicious meal. Liu Yanran enthusiastically served food to her uncle and aunt. Everyone ate and chatted, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
During the meal, Liu Yanran and Liu Guoxing talked about the interesting things they experienced while studying in Beijing. Liu Yanran smiled and said, "I still remember that time when we visited the Forbidden City together. Fourth Brother was particularly interested in those historical relics and kept asking questions."
Liu Guoxing also recalled with a smile: "Yes, it was really fun that time. Let's take my uncle and aunt to play together tomorrow." When you come to Beijing, of course you have to visit Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City.
Everyone enjoyed the food and shared stories with each other, having a pleasant dinner time.
The next morning, the sun rose early, shining through the clouds and illuminating the entire city of Beijing. The four members of the Liu family, along with Cao Dejun and his wife, set out for a day of sightseeing.
They first arrived at the foot of the Great Wall. Looking up, they saw the wall winding through the mountains like a giant dragon, majestic and imposing. Everyone was very excited and couldn't wait to embark on the journey of climbing the Great Wall.
Along the way, they laughed and talked happily, supporting each other as they climbed up. Finally, when they reached the top of the Great Wall, the sight before them was astonishing.
The ancient city walls, majestic beacon towers, and the rolling hills in the distance formed a magnificent picture. Standing on the Great Wall, they felt the sedimentation of history and the vicissitudes of time, and a sense of heroism surged in their hearts.
After leaving the Great Wall, they visited the Forbidden City, whose red walls, yellow tiles, and magnificent palaces were so captivating that they would not want to leave.
Cao Dejun and his wife showed great interest in the history and culture of the Forbidden City, and Liu Yanran acted as their tour guide, explaining it in detail. Each palace has its own unique story and legend, making people feel like they have traveled back in time to ancient times and witnessed the glory and rise and fall of the imperial family.
After the fun, everyone was still reluctant to leave, but it was already late. Liu Yanran didn't want to go back to cook, so she took her uncle and aunt to Liuji Hotpot.
