Ruan Yi looked across at Song Xincheng, Fan Ze, and Fan Hao, each holding a small piece of abalone and carefully nibbling on it.
There were no adults, except him.
A hint of embarrassment flashed across her face as she looked at the third brother, her expression suddenly becoming self-righteous:
"I got a fishbone stuck in my throat, and my sister felt sorry for me. What's wrong with giving me a piece?"
The third brother pursed his lips, and the second brother suddenly laughed:
"Oh? I see. You're jealous because you don't have what I do? Well, there's nothing I can do about it, my sister favors me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a pair of chopsticks reached out from the stone house, picked up a small abalone, and handed it to the third brother.
The third brother paused for a moment, then smiled and took it with a show of it, stuffing it into his mouth as if to say that his sister had given it to him, and it was even bigger than his second brother's!
You only have a small piece, but I have a whole one!
The second son looked around, and the third son followed suit...
Even though Ruan Meng was inside, she guessed that they were all looking for their eldest brother.
I thought to myself, thank goodness my older brother left quickly. What kind of family has such a young brother who acts like a chicken all day long, all he does is tattle?
Brother, you've worked hard!
Quickly scoop out the fish balls, wash the pot, and then cook them in the pot. Before serving, sprinkle with a little salt and chopped green onions. It's so delicious it'll make your eyebrows fall off!
As the eldest sister-in-law was serving rice, Ruan Mengdao called from outside, reminding the third brother to serve a bowl of rice to Granny Liu, as the second brother was having difficulty moving due to a foot injury.
The Song and Fan families are becoming increasingly adept at handling things.
While washing their hands and waiting for their meal, they not only rinsed the oyster meat they had pried out, but also ground the oyster shells into powder, just as the third brother had done before, and put them into a basket.
Ruan Meng poured the braised abalone sauce over millet rice, eliciting sighs from everyone present.
"Wow!"
"Aww!"
"So delicious!"
......
This is probably the most beautiful praise a cook has ever heard.
Ruan Meng served each person a small bowl of fish soup, and each person received two small fish balls.
The third son knew how to eat. After taking a sip of the fish soup, he poured the rest directly onto the millet rice. The rice, soaked in the soup, became even more translucent and glossy.
Seeing this, others followed suit.
I just ate abalone and it was absolutely amazing!
I took another sip of the fish soup, and it was simply unbelievable!
What a delicious soup there is in the world!
Fan Hao pointed to the fish soup with his little finger and said to his mother beside him, "Mom, I want to drink this soup again in the future!"
Sister-in-law Fan coaxed her son, "Because it tastes good, right?"
Fan Hao nodded repeatedly.
Second Sister-in-law Fan looked across at her son and guided him, "Then you should thank Aunt Ruan, right? Aunt Ruan worked hard to make the fish soup for everyone. It was delicious, wasn't it?"
"Aunt Ruan, you've worked so hard!"
Fan Hao's voice was soft and sweet as he mumbled, "Aunt Ruan, you've worked so hard! The fish soup is delicious!"
Ruan Meng smiled, and then heard Fan Hao say again, "I want to drink more!"
Fan Ersao immediately reached out and covered her son's mouth.
The speed of his move made everyone present burst into laughter.
Fan Ze, holding the fish soup, raised it towards Ruan Meng without anyone instructing him.
"Aunt Ruan, the fish soup is delicious! Thank you!"
Song Xincheng also said considerately, "Aunt Ruan, you've worked hard!"
Ruan Mengxin nodded with satisfaction and casually agreed, "If we catch any more eels or catfish, Aunt Ruan will make fish soup for you..."
Before he could finish speaking, his second brother exclaimed "Ah!" from the side, clearly startled.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, then looked at Ruan Yi in unison, all remembering the painful sting he had just suffered from being stung by the striped eel catfish, and they all suppressed their laughter.
"I've discovered that I don't actually like fish soup that much..."
Ruan Yi covered it up, then corrected, "Or rather, this eel and catfish soup isn't something you absolutely have to drink."
He was quite self-aware; among this group, he was the luckiest!
Catching eels and catfish?
He'll definitely take all the risks!
This fish soup is better left uneaten!
Amidst laughter, Ruan Meng looked up and saw the young woman who had walked past her door earlier looking in her direction.
If she had simply been passing by unintentionally, even though her actions were somewhat guilty...
Now, Ruan Meng is quite certain that the other party is keeping an eye on her home.
As Ruan Meng raised her hand and pointed at the person, the woman suddenly dodged and walked away from the side.
"Little sister, what's wrong?"
The second brother scratched his head, noticing his sister's unusual behavior, and quickly asked.
Ruan Meng gave a casual reply, and then she heard the sound of a carriage approaching from afar.
