Everyone returned home with a full load of goodies, and it was already dark when they got home.
"Let's all stay here tonight, since tomorrow's a day off anyway," the eldest brother suggested.
“I agree,” the fourth senior brother also said.
They rarely come back, so they always try to spend more time with their master.
Xiao Qianqian glanced at Ye Bosen, who was also smiling at her; "I'm fine with anything."
"Okay, then we'll stay here tonight too."
"Yay, yay, I want to live here too!" Yueyue is still very energetic.
"Alright, everyone stay here tonight. Let's get to work, clean up the game, and start preparing dinner. Let's divide the tasks together."
"I have no objection."
"Well, my third and fourth junior brothers and I will clean up the prey. Junior sisters, you can take care of making dinner. The two little ones can play with Grandpa."
Okay, I agree.
"I agree."
"Um."
"Yay!"
Everyone agreed in unison.
"Okay, let's get started then. There's still a lot of work to do."
"Um."
Everyone got busy. The eldest, third, and fourth senior brothers started boiling water, then scalded the wild boar and pheasants before slaughtering them. They were all working hard, and it felt like celebrating the Chinese New Year.
The two little cuties played with their master, their laughter never ceasing.
In the kitchen, Ye Bosen and Xiao Qianqian looked at the ingredients. There were still a lot of ingredients left over from when their senior brother and the others came.
"Ah Sen, you cook, I'll tend the fire."
"Okay." Ye Bosen skillfully picked up the ingredients and began to prepare them, his knife skills as adept as a professional chef.
Xiao Qianqian diligently added firewood to the fire, the flames in the stove illuminating her rosy cheeks.
"Oh dear, the aroma is already wafting out!" came the teasing voice of the eldest disciple from outside.
Ye Bosen's lips curled up slightly, and he quickened his movements.
Soon, one exquisite dish after another was served.
The braised pork belly has an enticing reddish-brown color and a rich aroma; the stir-fried chicken is tender and juicy, with each piece coated in flavorful broth.
"Wow, it smells so good!" Yueyue, who was playing with her toys outside, smelled the aroma wafting from the kitchen. Her eyes lit up, and she dropped her toys and ran to the kitchen.
"Dad, what did you make? It smells so good!"
DouDou smelled the aroma and ran in. Seeing the dishes on the table, her mouth watered and she was extremely hungry.
"Yueyue, Doudou, go wash your hands with Grandpa first, then ask your uncles if the pig has been slaughtered yet?"
Okay.
Yueyue ran quickly into the yard.
"Uncle, Uncle, is the pig ready yet? It's time to eat."
"It'll be here soon, it'll be here soon!"
A moment later, a cheer came from the other side: "Alright, the pig is slaughtered, it's ready to be cooked!"
Yueyue jumped up with joy: "Great! I can eat lots of meat today!"
The group carried the prepared pork into the kitchen. Ye Bosen looked at the fresh pork and said with a smile, "This pork is quite succulent. We'll also make sweet and sour pork ribs tonight." After saying that, he went back to work.
Xiao Qianqian was helping to chop the side dishes when she accidentally cut her hand and cried out in pain.
Ye Bosen hurriedly put down what he was holding, took her hand to check it, and said with concern, "How could you be so careless? Let me see." He carefully bandaged her wound.
After washing their hands, the two little ones stood at the kitchen doorway, gazing longingly at the delicious food inside.
The master came over and patted their heads: "Little gluttons, it'll be ready soon."
Before long, all the dishes were served, a large table full of sumptuous food.
Sweet and sour pork ribs, sweet and sour pork tenderloin, braised pork belly, braised fish, braised chicken pieces, dry-fried rabbit meat, and a pot of delicious chicken soup. Several side dishes were also stir-fried, making it even more plentiful than lunch.
The two little cuties had bright, sparkling eyes, and their mouths were practically watering.
"Let's get started! Everyone's worked so hard. Today really feels like celebrating the New Year," the eldest brother said with a smile.
"Yes, it's been a long time since it's been this lively."
"Brother-in-law, your cooking skills are amazing!" The third senior brother picked up a piece of braised pork. The flavor was rich, and the aroma of the meat exploded on his tongue. It was truly delicious.
As everyone ate, they praised the food endlessly. Ye Bosen looked at their satisfied expressions and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
Just then, the third senior brother suddenly seemed to remember something. He jokingly said, "Brother-in-law, with your excellent cooking skills, have you ever considered opening a private restaurant? It would definitely be very popular."
Ye Bosen smiled and said, "I'm just making this for my family and friends."
"Daddy, the meat you made is so delicious!" Yueyue said, her little mouth puffed out as she ate.
Ye Bosen reached out and patted her little head; "Yueyue likes to eat it, so Daddy will make it for you often from now on, okay?"
"Yay, yay, thank you Dad."
Ye Bosen put a piece of braised pork on his master's plate and a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs on the two little ones' plates.
Then he turned to Xiao Qianqian beside him and picked up a piece of braised chicken; "Wife, you've worked hard today."
Xiao Qianqian's cheeks flushed slightly: "Yes, you've worked hard too."
She reached out her chopsticks and placed a piece of pork rib on his plate; "You eat too."
"Thank you, honey!"
Ye Bosen picked up a rib and took a bite; "Delicious."
Xiao Qianqian glanced at him with a smile. "Is there anyone who brags like that? He's shameless."
"I must say, Ah Sen, your braised pork is really good! The meat isn't dry at all, and it's very fragrant. It's just the right amount of tender and soft. Mmm, delicious!" The master couldn't help but praise after finishing a piece of braised pork.
