As soon as Li Miaomiao entered the kitchen, she focused on cooking and didn't care about the father and son.
As a professionally trained chef, Li Miaomiao also has her professional qualities.
Besides, it was really late. Although Pei Guoan had basically washed and cut the vegetables, his cooking skills were average after all, so he didn't know what else she needed to cook. He only processed what he could see in front of him. She still had to prepare something else.
I was so happy chatting with my son just now that I forgot to check the time.
Besides, since her husband and son finally came to visit, Li Miaomiao also wanted to cook something delicious for them.
With this calculation, time is still a bit tight.
Seeing that the father and son were not only busy with their work but also secretly competing with each other, and had some things to take out of the system, Li Miaomiao simply kicked them out.
"Just wait and eat. Don't mess around in the kitchen. You're wasting my time. It's getting late. Sister Zhou will probably be here soon."
Pei Guoan had already cooked the meal, Li Miaomiao said as she started to stir-fry a pheasant and put mushrooms in it, then changed to a casserole and put it on another small stove to stew it, and used the iron pot to stir-fry other dishes.
Thinking that her husband and son both like to eat braised pork, Li Miaomiao made braised pork as the second dish.
While the braised pork was stewing in the pot, Li Miaomiao was making dumplings.
"Mom, this meal is too rich."
Pei Guoan and his son were originally driven out of the kitchen by Li Miaomiao, but Pei Yifan smelled the fragrance and went into the kitchen again. He watched Li Miaomiao busying around with bright eyes, and then smelled the fragrance coming from the pot. His face was full of happiness.
"Of course. I haven't cooked a good meal for you in such a long time. It's rare for you to come over, so of course I have to reward you."
"Mom, you're so nice. The food you cook is the best. I'm so happy!"
"You have such a sweet mouth, my son, I have to pamper you."
Pei Guoan was dissatisfied when he heard this: "I am your man too."
"Yes, I remember. There are some of your favorites, too. You two are father and son, as expected. You have similar tastes. I can't forget anyone."
Li Miaomiao's tone was helpless. The two childish jealous people were going backwards.
Pei Guoan was satisfied after hearing this. Although Pei Yifan frowned, he didn't say anything. He understood that his father had never been sensible in this matter, and his mother was also embarrassed to be caught in the middle.
Li Miaomiao and his son finally rested in peace, which was a relief.
Both of them are her ancestors, and she has lost her temper because of them.
At the appointed time, Sister Zhou came over as expected. Although she sounded a little surprised when she saw Pei Guoan and his son, Li Miaomiao saw that she was clearly not surprised at all. So she knew that someone outside had tipped off Sister Zhou about the situation here.
"Yes, my husband said that I had been away for so long and hadn't returned yet. He and the children missed me, so he came to see me when he had time, hoping that I would return home soon."
"I agree. You've been out for so long, how could your wife and children not miss you? In fact, you've done a lot for your village. If it really doesn't work out, you don't necessarily have to fight for it from the machinery factory." Sister Zhou said this, observing Li Miaomiao's reaction.
"If I hadn't done anything at the beginning, getting to this point would already be a good result. But now I've put a lot of thought into the machinery factory and have opened up half of the channels. It's really hard to give up at this time."
"Oh? It seems you've made some progress in the past few days."
"I'm just lucky. I've found a connection. Sister Qing has also agreed to help me find a solution. She has a wide network of contacts and a remarkable background. If she really wants to help, it will most likely work. If I go back now, it would be too uneconomical."
Sister Zhou also contributed to the machinery factory, but she didn't expect Li Miaomiao to be so capable that she could make such progress in such a short time.
"You must be capable. If that's the case, it would be a shame to give up now."
"That's right. Besides, I actually have some other ideas, but I haven't thought of them yet. I might as well not go back these days and open up the connection with the machinery factory first. If I go back now, all my previous work will be in vain. Anyway, I've been out for so long, I don't need to waste more time."
"It depends on your own ideas. I support you. Although my ability is limited, if there is anything I can do, just ask."
"Sister Zhou, you've helped me enough. If it weren't for you helping me connect with others, I wouldn't have any connections at the machinery factory, and how could I have made such rapid progress?"
"Why do we need to talk about this between us? Besides, you didn't let me suffer any loss. Let's not talk about this anymore. What did you make for lunch? It smells so good."
"This is all the game I bought this morning. My wife came over and brought a lot of food, some from home, as well as game and mountain products. You're in for a real treat this afternoon."
As Li Miaomiao said this, Pei Guoan and Pei Yifan had already brought the food to the table and set the table.
"Sister Zhou, I bought another bottle of wine at the supply and marketing cooperative. How about we drink some more today?"
This time, Sister Zhou did not agree. She glanced at Pei Guoan and met his scrutinizing gaze. "No, I have something to do in the next few days. It was just that Mr. Wang was there that day, and I accompanied him for a drink. I don't usually like to drink."
"I see. I said today's food is good. Let's have a few drinks."
Sister Zhou was about to say something, but before she could open her mouth, she heard Pei Guoan's slightly dissatisfied voice.
"Miao Miao, you promised me that you would never drink outside unless you were in front of me. How can I let you go out alone if you're like this?"
"That's right, Mom, you're not listening!"
Pei Guoan pretended to be ignorant, but the little guy heard about his mother drinking for the first time, and he immediately said dissatisfiedly
"I know my limits and only drank a little. After all, it's rare for Mr. Wang to come. He's in a good mood, so I'll at least have a few drinks with him."
"Have a few more drinks. What's your alcohol tolerance? Don't you know your limit? Do you really want me to take you back right now?" Pei Guoan looked at Li Miaomiao with a half-smile, and there was already some anger in his tone.
Pei Yifan also looked at Li Miaomiao accusingly
"Dad, Mom is disobedient. She will be punished for being disobedient!"
Li Miaomiao: ...
She now thinks her son can be thrown away.
It was obvious that Pei Guoan already knew about it last time and that everything was over. He was just acting in front of Sister Zhou this time. But when she met Pei Guoan's eyes, Li Miaomiao still felt timid, shrank her neck, and looked like a woman under the strict control of her husband.
Seeing Li Miaomiao like this, Sister Zhou felt that her guilty and fearful look did not seem to be pretended. She was really afraid that Pei Guoan would be unhappy. She had a new definition of the couple Li Miaomiao and Pei Guoan.
