Grandma Yu snorted: "What's impossible? I know that kid pretty well."
"What are you two talking about? Why aren't you coming out of your room yet? If you don't come out soon, the noodles will get soggy."
Gu Zixiao stood outside the door, knocking and urging her to hurry.
Grandma Yu replied impatiently, "I know, why are you rushing me?"
Then she muttered under her breath, "So what if you cook once in a while? You act all high and mighty, can't you even spare a little time?"
"What? It's no big deal. If you ever dare to treat Lan Yao badly in the future, no matter how powerful you are, I'll fight tooth and nail for you."
As Lan Yao listened to Grandma Yu's rambling, she felt a warmth in her heart.
To be honest, whether in her past life or this one, very few people have ever been kind to her.
Lan Yao didn't know if it was just bad luck, but she just couldn't seem to meet any good people or receive any good rewards.
Now that I have Grandma Yu, it seems like my luck is about to change?
Lan Yao helped Grandma Yu to the dining room in the main room for dinner. By this time, Wang Zhenfeng and the others had also gotten up.
They were full of energy, and it seemed that, like Gu Zixiao, they got up early every day to exercise.
After Lan Yao and Grandma Yu sat down at the table, Gu Zixiao placed the large bowl with the most shredded meat in front of Lan Yao, followed by his and Grandma Yu's bowls.
He wouldn't serve the smaller portions to others; they should go get them themselves.
Gu Zixiao was able to bring it over to Grandma Yu because Lan Yao had a certain favoritism towards her.
As the saying goes, "love me, love my dog," that's pretty much it.
Gu Zixiao's favoritism was so blatant that Lei Shengrong protested in a low voice, "Boss, you haven't even won her over yet, isn't it a bit unfair of you to be so biased?"
Wang Zhenfeng nudged him with his elbow and said irritably, "Eating can't shut you up. Besides, when have you ever seen the boss cook for us? We've been able to eat the boss's cooking these past two days thanks to Comrade Lan Yao, so you should be grateful."
Li Sangye nodded in agreement with Wang Zhenfeng's statement while slurping up noodles.
Compared to yesterday, the noodles I made today were thicker, chewier, and smoother.
Although it wasn't seasoned much, just a little salt and soy sauce, it was surprisingly delicious.
There wasn't enough shredded pork. I don't know how my eldest son stir-fried it, but it was incredibly tender and smooth, not dry at all, and savory with a hint of spiciness.
These noodles are so delicious, so incredibly delicious! Li Sangyan finished a bowl of noodles in no time.
Then, he ladled another bowl from the pot.
Seeing Li Sangye, who never cared much about food, showing such eagerness, Wang Zhenfeng and Lei Shengrong knew that the noodles were delicious.
Speaking of which, Li Sangyan also ate a lot of food yesterday when they weren't paying attention.
Seeing how eagerly they were eating what Gu Zixiao had made, Lan Yao's gaze naturally fell on her own bowl.
Gu Zixiao urged, "What are you thinking about? Eat quickly. Otherwise, the noodles will get soggy."
Lan Yao hummed in agreement and asked, "How are you feeling? Are you alright?"
Gu Zixiao instantly understood what Lan Yao wanted to know, and he was about to nod to indicate that he had no problem.
But the next second, Gu Zixiao felt a sharp pain in his stomach, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead from the pain.
Before he could answer, Gu Zixiao clutched her stomach and ran to the toilet.
The others didn't take it seriously and continued eating.
As long as a strange light flashes in Lan Yao's eyes.
Jade Pixiu: "Master, it seems the spiritual spring is working."
Jade Abacus: "I just don't know what the effect will be."
Lan Yao: "Who cares about the effect? We'll see when the time comes."
If things are going well, Lan Yao will try drinking it herself, and then give some to Grandma Yu.
Then, depending on my mood, I'll decide whether to give it to Gu Zixiao again.
After figuring things out, Lan Yao happily started eating. To be honest, Gu Zixiao's cooking skills were impeccable; both the noodles and the shredded meat were delicious.
Lan Yao ate three large bowls before she was satisfied, and of course, one of those three bowls came from Gu Zixiao.
There was nothing he could do, so Gu Zixiao kept running to the toilet. Because it smelled so bad, he simply stayed in the yard and didn't come in.
After all that commotion that morning, the others were getting worried and asked Gu Zixiao what was wrong, whether she had eaten something bad.
Gu Zixiao waved his hand and looked at Lan Yao meaningfully, saying, "It's nothing. I didn't eat anything bad. It's just that I felt too much love and couldn't bear it, so I turned out like this."
Lan Yao: ...
She was a straightforward, blunt woman, and hearing Gu Zixiao's words made her scalp tingle; they were incredibly greasy.
She rolled her eyes at her and decided to just ignore her.
At noon, instead of letting Gu Zixiao cook, Grandma Yu volunteered, and with Li Sangyan's help, they made a lot of scallion pancakes, a big pot of dumpling soup, and a large portion of spicy cabbage. Everyone then slurped it down.
Grandma Yu asked in a serious tone, "Is my cooking better, or is Gu Zixiao's cooking better?"
Gu Zixiao sat next to Lan Yao and used serving chopsticks to put spicy cabbage on Lan Yao's plate. Hearing this, he looked up at Grandma Yu with a half-smile.
Lan Yao glanced at Gu Zixiao casually and said decisively, "Of course, Grandma Yu's cooking is the best. I like Grandma Yu's cooking the most."
The others echoed and agreed with Lan Yao's statement.
Gu Zixiao sighed, "Lan Yao, I'm heartbroken because of what you said. How are you going to make it up to me?"
Lan Yao: "The fact that you can still say something like that proves you're fine. Besides, I'm not a doctor and I don't know how to cure illnesses. If you're sick, please go to the hospital."
Gu Zixiao was taken aback for a moment, then laughed: "Lan Yao, you're really funny."
Lan Yao rolled her eyes, tore off a piece of scallion pancake, and stuffed it into Gu Zixiao's mouth.
Gu Zixiao chewed naturally, then said to Grandma Yu, who had been staring at him, "Grandma Yu cooks very well. But she can't compare to me."
Grandma Yu: ...
Lan Yao: ...
Everyone: ...
Grandma Yu rolled her eyes at him and ignored him.
"How are you feeling? Do you need to go to the hospital? Although you are usually very healthy, it's better not to avoid seeking medical attention."
Gu Zixiao's gaze remained fixed on Lan Yao, watching her intently eat. Both her expression and movements amused Gu Zixiao, and his heart fluttered with a sense of longing.
He shook his head, gently pinching his tender, smooth face, and said, "Grandma Yu, look at my complexion. How's my energy? If someone like me went to the hospital, wouldn't the doctor scold me and kick me out?"
Grandma Yu took a good look at him and thought that his overly handsome face, with its excellent complexion, rosy and radiant skin, and bright and energetic eyes, certainly did not look sick.
Grandma Yu snorted coldly and ignored him.
Just then, someone knocked on the Yu family's door.
