"The hot water is ready. Sir, would you like to take a bath first before dinner, or would you like to eat first and then take a bath?"
Butler Sun has taken care of everything at the villa, so Lin Zhou can enjoy attentive service when he arrives.
Lin Zhou has come a long way and has come to deeply understand the drawbacks of last week's mission rewards.
When it comes to food, you can't just make do with whatever you can find.
If you want to grab a bite at a service area, anything you eat will be so bad that it's hard to swallow.
Therefore, he had no choice but to be much more refined along the way.
When it's time to eat, find a city to stay in beforehand, rest, and have a meal.
So even if we go to Dongyong City, we won't be tired.
It was more like they had been eating and drinking their way through the place.
Having a good physique makes all the difference.
"I'll take a shower first, you guys eat first, just save my portion."
Lin Zhou knew that since he had said he would be home in the evening, they wouldn't eat first, so they must all be waiting for him to finish eating.
"Yes, sir."
People who spend a lot of time with Lin Zhou know that he is someone who hates trouble.
Since they said something, that's definitely what they meant.
Therefore, since everyone had lived under the same roof for a long time, they all chose to listen to Lin Zhou.
This way, everyone can live comfortably.
The spacious kitchen was where everyone sat at the bar to eat.
Lin Zhou's portion was served on the table in the restaurant outside, presented in exquisite tableware.
These are all dishes that Lin Zhou usually likes to eat.
Wait until he comes down from his shower.
Housekeeper Sun and the aunties had already finished eating, and Lin Zhou was taking care of them while he ate.
"Sir, you've driven for so long, could you arrange for a masseuse to come back?"
"No need, it's too late, let's do it tomorrow."
"Sir, I knitted you a scarf. It was finished last week. Would you like to take a look and see if you like it?"
After not seeing each other for more than a week, not only was Lin Zhou showered with concern, but even Fantuan was given extra pampering.
They were fed by the instructors while being held in their arms.
Xiao Li ate from the time everyone started eating together until Lin Zhou finished eating.
Seeing that Lin Zhou had finished eating, and there was still a lot of food left, Steward Sun only tasted each dish before putting it down.
"Sir, do you have no appetite?"
Looking at the dishes that had been taken away, Xiao Li was still eating rice and asked in confusion.
"I guess the food wasn't as good as freshly made food because it had been sitting for too long. I'll prepare some more late-night snacks later."
After finishing his meal, Lin Zhou lay down on the sofa to rest, and unconsciously let out a long sigh.
Having a too-sharp tongue isn't always a good thing.
One bite and you can tell what's wrong with the food; nothing tastes good anymore, it's awful.
It looks like I'll have to cook for myself from now on.
...
The next morning, with nothing to do, Lin Zhou decided to study the recipes for the mission.
Braised pork trotters with rice – this is the first time I've ever had a recipe that includes both vegetables and rice.
A single recipe includes not only how to cook pig's feet, but also how to cook rice and how to prepare side dishes; it's very comprehensive and detailed.
Lin Zhou had never done this before and wanted to give it a try.
Everywhere has a farmers market, and if you want to get fresh, good produce, you have to go early.
So after Lin Zhou found out where the vegetable market was, he got up before dawn to go buy vegetables.
The freshness of ingredients directly affects the taste of dishes.
It was barely dawn when Lin Zhou returned from grocery shopping.
There were too many vegetables; it took two trips to carry them all back.
Soak pig's feet and hocks in a basin of water to remove the blood.
For breakfast, Lin Zhou planned to make some sesame seed cakes so that everyone could taste the flavor of last week's cakes.
Although no one mentioned it, Lin Zhou knew that everyone definitely wanted to eat it.
When the family members got up one by one, they were really shocked to see that Lin Zhou had gotten up even earlier than them.
These employees spend their days guarding the boss's big villa.
The boss works hard buying groceries, cooking, and setting up a stall to earn money.
They stayed at home.
I feel guilty every time I see my boss so busy!
Especially Xiao Li, who eats a lot and has nothing to do, feels that his family doesn't need him at all, and is afraid of being fired every moment.
Therefore, they were extremely obsequious when they saw Lin Zhou.
"Boss, is there anything I can do?"
"There really is. Check if the blood has seeped out of the pig's feet. If it has, change the water." Lin Zhou was kneading the dough when he heard this, and he didn't stand on ceremony. He directly ordered him to do it.
Little Li happily went to work.
The small task gave him the illusion that he was carrying out an imperial edict.
This level of enthusiasm is truly commendable.
Steward Sun also came over to help, and Lin Zhou assigned him the task of chopping pork fat.
"I'll make some sesame seed cakes for you to try. I went to the mountains last week to sell sesame seed cakes, and the children there were quite interesting."
With others around, Lin Zhou became more talkative, chatting with Butler Sun and the aunties about the interesting things that happened last week.
Speaking of donations, Lin Zhou felt helpless when he recalled the teacher's distressed expression as he thought about how much the money was owed to him.
They probably felt that it wasn't easy for him to earn money selling pancakes, and they wanted to persuade him not to donate.
"I guess the teacher has never seen anyone as rich as Mr. [name], yet still doing such hard work."
A pancake that costs one or two yuan is hard-earned money.
"I guess they confirmed it several times when they donated the money later."
They chatted idly while making breakfast.
With someone's help, things get much faster.
He left the pancake stall in the rural courtyard and handed it over to Huang Zhenghao to handle.
He went into battle alone, unburdened.
Now we can only bake it in the oven.
After Lin Zhou finished making the dough for the sesame cakes, he baked a batch first, then told Uncle Sun the time, and left the rest to him to bake.
Xiao Li has a big appetite, so Lin Zhou made a lot of sesame seed cake dough. Just baking them all took quite a bit of time.
This was the first time everyone had eaten the sesame seed cakes made by Lin Zhou.
