Chapter 296 Chicken Legs, Don’t Leave
Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear.
"Hey, sister-in-law, look, mom is back."
Fang Liying looked outside and saw Su's mother coming in with a red bucket, and Su Jianxin hurried forward to help get it.
"Mom..." Fang Liying called sweetly.
"Liying and Jianfeng are back. Where's Jianfeng?"
"Jianfeng went to the backyard and said he was helping his dad."
"Okay, then Liying, you sit here for a while. Mom will go and get busy. Jianxin, come and help me make stuffed tofu."
Mother Su bought half a bucket of tofu. If she were to make it by herself, it would take a long time. But if two people are together, it will be much faster.
Mother Su had already prepared the stuffing for stuffed tofu. Now all we had to do was cut the square tofu into triangles in half and we could start stuffing it.
Fang Liying had eaten stuffed tofu before, but she had never made it herself.
Seeing Mother Su and Su Jianxin making stuffed tofu was quite novel. She had nothing to do, so...
"Mom, I also want to learn how to make Yong Tau Foo, is that ok?"
Mother Su glanced at Fang Liying and said, "Of course no problem, you can sit here."
Su Jianxin gave Fang Liying a spoon with a pointed tail.
"Sister-in-law, let me teach you. It's very simple and you will learn it soon."
"good."
"First, we pick up a piece of tofu, and then dig out some tofu in the middle. Then stuff the meat filling in and smooth it out, and that's it. Come on, try it..."
Fang Liying followed the method Su Jianxin taught her, and it was indeed very simple. All she had to do was stuff the meat filling in.
With Fang Liying joining them, the three of them made the stuffed tofu even faster.
It took less than half an hour to brew dozens of pieces of tofu.
When Su Jianfeng came back from the backyard, Fang Liying ran up to him and showed off.
"Honey, honey, I learned how to make stuffed tofu today. I also helped mom and my little sister make all the stuffed tofu. Do you think I'm awesome?"
Su Jianfeng scratched her nose and said affectionately, "Well, my wife is really capable."
After all the ingredients were prepared, it was already half past twelve in the afternoon.
The custom during the Chinese New Year in rural areas is that people do not eat lunch at noon, because they want to save space for a big dinner at night.
So for lunch, I just had some noodles to fill my stomach.
After lunch, Fang Liying began to feel sleepy. After she became pregnant, she would take a nap after lunch every day, and would sleep for three or four hours at a time.
Since she became pregnant, Fang Liying felt like she was turning into a pig. Every day she did nothing but eat and sleep, and she could never get enough sleep.
Because of this, I gained more than 40 pounds and my face became rounder.
Once, she even complained to Su Jianfeng on purpose: "Husband, look at how much fat I have gained now. Have I become ugly?"
"Of course not. My wife is always beautiful no matter what time it is."
This is also Su Jianfeng's true words.
He thought that Fang Liying, who was pregnant with him, was the most beautiful. I will never dislike him just because she has gained weight and her figure is not as slim and pretty as before.
A man who has such thoughts is definitely a scumbag, and Su Jianfeng will never be such a scumbag.
"Hmm, it smells so good..."
"Chicken leg, don't go, don't go..., let me have a bite."
This is what Fang Liying said in her sleep.
I just had some noodles at noon, so my stomach started to growl while I was sleeping.
In her dream, she saw a big chicken drumstick and smelled a very fragrant smell, but she couldn't eat it.
The chicken drumstick is gone, but the fragrance remains. Soon, Fang Liying woke up because she was too hungry.
"It turns out that it wasn't a dream, it really smells good." Fang Liying was awakened by the fragrance.
I checked the time on my phone and it was only about half past four.
Cooking so early?
I quickly went downstairs to check and found that they were really making dinner.
The New Year’s Eve dinner in the countryside is usually eaten very early because after dinner everyone has their own activities.
Those who play cards play cards, those who play chess play chess, and those who play games play games.
At half past five, all the dishes were ready, and the sky was gradually getting dark.
The whole family sat together to eat the New Year's Eve dinner.
After finishing their meal early, Su Jianfeng and Fang Liying could return to Bincheng earlier.
Mother Su prepared a very sumptuous dinner.
There are braised green-head duck, braised chicken with mushrooms, stuffed tofu, braised pork with taro, stir-fried seasonal vegetables, and salt-baked Australian lobster.
The Australian lobsters were specially brought back by Su Jianfeng from Bincheng. Ou Zichen had them airlifted from Australia the day before and gave him two to bring back and eat with his family.
Mother Su put a big chicken leg into Fang Liying's bowl.
This chicken leg is really big because the chicken is raised by their family and it weighs 13 pounds. So you can imagine how big this leg is.
"Liying, eat more. You're going to give birth soon. Eat more so you can have the strength to do so."
"Thank you, Mom."
Fang Liying looked at the big chicken leg in the bowl. Wasn’t it the one in her dream just now? Unexpectedly, it's now in her bowl.
I was really hungry, so I grabbed the chicken leg and took a bite impatiently.
"Mmm..., Mom, this chicken leg smells so good and tastes so good."
The free-range chickens raised in the countryside are delicious no matter how they are cooked. Plus, Fang Liying was already hungry, so the food tasted even better.
"If it tastes good, eat more. There's plenty."
"Sister-in-law, come and try the stuffed tofu you made together today. Isn't it delicious?" Su Jianxin picked up a piece of fried stuffed tofu for Fang Liying.
Fang Liying took another bite.
"Mm! This tofu is so delicious. It is definitely the best tofu I have ever eaten. Honey, please try it. The tofu is really delicious."
Seeing Fang Liying eating so happily, the whole family started to pick up dishes for her. Her two bowls were filled up in an instant, making her feel embarrassed and not knowing what to eat.
"Don't just pick food for me, eat some too. It's delicious."
Father Su said, "Yes, everyone is hungry, let's eat."
Dad Su poured himself a glass of white wine. Su Jianfeng had to drive soon, so he couldn't drink. Everyone else, just drink orange juice.
Father Su raised his glass: "Come on, let's have a toast. I hope everyone will have smooth sailing in the new year."
"Cheers~~"
"Cheers~~"
"Cheers~~"
After clinking glasses, Fang Liying started eating without much hassle, because the dishes were so delicious and really to her liking.
Dad Su was particularly happy. Not only did his son get married this year, but he was also going to be a grandfather soon. It made him happy just thinking about it.
When you are in a good mood, the wine in your hand tastes better. Before the meal was even over, he had almost finished half a bottle of Moutai. The whole person was a little drunk.
He poured himself another glass of wine and prepared to toast Fang Liying, but Fang Liying suddenly screamed and Father Su fell off his chair.
