Chapter 117 Cooking Skills Show: The First Step in Training the Mother-in-Law
"Hey, isn't this Shuyao's house, Xiuxiu? Your son-in-law is here..."
After seeing Su Yang, the other two aunts at the mahjong table looked at Zhao Xiuxiu and said with a smile, but Zhao Xiuxiu's expression immediately fell and she put on a sour face after seeing Su Yang.
"Hello, Auntie..."
Su Yang greeted everyone with a smile, but ignored Zhao Xiuxiu, as if he didn't see her. Zhao Xiuxiu was a little confused when she saw that Su Yang didn't even pay attention to her.
"Sisters, why don't we stop here today"
Su Ailing said with a smile.
"Auntie Ling, no, no, you guys keep playing. We bought some dishes and wanted you to try my cooking. I've always heard Yaoyao say that you treat her very well, like your own daughter. I feel a little embarrassed that I'm just here after we've been married for so long."
Su Yang said quickly, which made Su Ailing and the two aunts laugh, but Zhao Xiuxiu's face became darker and darker. "Who is your real mother-in-law, you bastard surnamed Su?" He didn't even say hello when he came in, and no one was willing to show his displeasure. This made Zhao Xiuxiu's punch go in vain. Seeing Su Yang coming, she wanted to be arrogant and show off her mother-in-law's face, but Su Yang, this bastard, just ignored her.
"Oh, that's great. Lingling, why don't we leave at noon today? We'll take advantage of you and try the cooking of this Shuyao family member."
An aunt said with a smile.
"Auntie, don't worry. My cooking skills are absolutely flawless. Shuyao really likes the meals I cook. She used to be busy with work and could only make do with what she ate. Now she basically eats three meals a day at home. A few days ago, she was even complaining that she was fat and wanted to lose weight."
Su Yang was a very outgoing person, and everyone laughed when he said this, except for Zhao Xiuxiu, whose face became longer and darker.
"Yangyang, thank you for your help. Let's play for a while, you two are welcome. By the way, there are a lot of things in this storage room that were given to me by others. I don't know how to make them, so if you know how, just do it. Otherwise, they will all be wasted. I threw away a lot of them a while ago."
Su Ailing opened the storage room, which was huge and filled with a wide variety of items. Some cabinets contained some top-quality ingredients, making it a treasure trove. Such a storage room made Su Yang sigh, it really is a wealthy family, and the things thrown in the corner are worth a lot of money.
"Okay Aunt Ling, I won't be polite then."
Su Yang's words made Su Ailing smile. Su Ailing liked Su Yang's temperament. He was casual and familiar, which made people feel very friendly.
Su Yang and Qin Shumo got busy. Su Yang brought some ingredients with him. But there were even more in the pantry. The house was also well stocked with all sorts of tools and seasonings. Su Ailing would also cook some dishes, but not often. This gave Su Yang the opportunity to show off his culinary skills.
Qin Shumo, helping out, was amazed to see Su Yang expertly prepare the various ingredients. This time, he truly witnessed Su Yang's culinary skills. The skill was a delight to watch, like a performance.
"Xiu'er, what a good son-in-law. Why can't you understand it?"
Su Ailing returned to the mahjong table and looked at Zhao Xiuxiu and couldn't help but whispered.
"What's so good about a pretty boy..."
Zhao Xiuxiu snorted coldly.
"What's wrong with gigolos? I think they're pretty good. They're handsome, good at coaxing people, sensible and polite, and most importantly, they're in good health..."
An aunt joked.
"Then you should find one too."
Zhao Xiuxiu couldn't help but tease.
"I would like to, but my husband Wang is watching me closely."
"Come on, you're already a grandmother. Aren't you ashamed to say that..."
"What's there to be ashamed of? Oh, by the way, Qingqing, how's the medicinal wine you made for your old Ma some time ago? Is it effective?"
The more they spoke, the more shameless they became. At their age, they'd seen everything. They couldn't even stop the car.
"Okay, okay, the kids are here. Come on, let's play cards. Whose turn is it..."
The mahjong hall became lively again. The four people were playing cards and whispering happily.
Su Yang and Qin Shumo were busy in the kitchen. Su Yang showed off his cooking skills. Su Ailing's home was well-equipped with all kinds of kitchen utensils and seasonings. This allowed Su Yang's culinary skills to be fully utilized.
Each dish was delicious and in every way, no worse than the food in a top restaurant. Qin Shumo was stunned by the god-like cooking skills. So this was the true level of his brother-in-law's cooking skills. What he had learned was not even the tip of the iceberg. Thinking about his sister being able to eat Su Yang's cooking every day, Qin Shumo couldn't help but envy her.
"Auntie Ling, it's getting late. Let's eat first. It's not too late for you to play after dinner..."
After Su Yang prepared the meal, he called out. Hearing this, they also finished and walked towards the restaurant.
There are eighteen dishes in total, including both meat and vegetables, which are delicious and tasty.
"Wow, Xiu'er, your son-in-law's cooking skills are amazing. Oh my God, Yangyang, were you a chef before?"
When the four of them entered the restaurant, their eyes widened at the sight of the table full of food. Even Zhao Xiuxiu was amazed. The eighteen dishes were all delicious, and the presentation was top-notch. It was like dining at a top-notch restaurant.
"I believe Yaoyao gained weight this time. Who wouldn't gain weight when she meets a husband who's such a good cook? Yaoyao is so lucky. If I were thirty years younger, I would definitely compete with Yaoyao..."
Su Ailing said jokingly, which caused several people to laugh.
The other two aunts were also envious. Their families were all well-off. After all, they were considered the flower of youth back then, and it was worth marrying up. However, the better off the family, the fewer men knew how to cook. Most of them were busy with their careers and had no time to be a housewife at home.
Seeing Su Yang's cooking skills were so good, they were naturally surprised, and after being surprised, they were envious. It would be great if their husbands were such good cooks.
"Auntie Ling, please sit down and try these dishes. They're not as good as the top restaurants you go to, so please forgive me if they're not tasty."
Su Yang said with a smile, continuing to ignore Zhao Xiuxiu's cold face. Just as if Zhao Xiuxiu was invisible, several people sat down and officially started to eat.
"Auntie Ling, try this. I made it."
As soon as he sat down, Qin Shumo began to take credit.
"Oh, when did Shumo learn to cook?"
Su Ailing's face was filled with surprise, as were the other two aunts. They knew Qin Shumo's character well: a prodigal son spoiled by Zhao Xiuxiu. It didn't seem real that this prodigal could cook. Seeing their surprised expressions, Qin Shumo's face was filled with pride. "A man should be treated with new eyes after three days of absence." Qin Shumo felt that this phrase best described himself.
