Chapter 529: Chinese New Year is coming again

A phone call caused endless debate among the Jiang family. Jiang Li looked at everyone silently, pursed his lips and said nothing.

He sighed slightly in his heart and reflected on himself again. Some things really cannot be forced. He was too idealistic.

"Forget it, stop arguing. I found Qing, and I will make all the arrangements for her in the future. You don't have to get involved. She is a gifted child. If she is willing to return to Jiang, everyone will be happy. If she is not willing, there is no need to force her."

From the day I met her, I knew that she was a stubborn person and had her own ideas about what she said and did.

As elders who have not been in contact for many years, they really have no right to interfere too much.

Jiang Li spoke. Although everyone had different thoughts, no one objected. After all, if the other party didn't want to come, could they still capture him?

Now, the old man is the only elder in the Jiang family. If you make him unhappy, you won’t have a good year.

Dai Qing had no idea what the Jiang faction was arguing about. After hanging up the phone, she went back home to cut her kelp shreds.

Then, start to boil the big bone soup. When the meat flavor comes out, add the kelp shreds and continue to stew until the kelp is soft and soaked in the soup. Then let it cool and solidify naturally.

When you want to eat it, grab a bowl and steam it with large slices of pork belly, and it will be delicious salted kelp.

In addition to kelp, Dai Qing also added some soaked bamboo shoots, bamboo fungus and fried tofu according to her own preference, making the dish even more delicious.

Just when she was busy, Juanzi came over with a plate of buns.

"Xiao Qing, my buns are ready. These are fresh out of the pot. My mom asked me to bring you a few to try."

"Thank you very much. I was stewing and didn't have time to cook." Dai Qing came out of the kitchen, took the bun, smelled it, and

“It smells so good.”

Aunt Wang likes to make various dried vegetables. She also likes to use them to make dumplings, which are mixed with oil residue and minced meat. They are really fragrant.

Juanzi looked at the sausages and bacon hanging under the corridor and couldn't help but exclaim in amazement?

"You've prepared too much New Year's goods. How can one person finish them all? When you're stewing meat later, call me and I'll help you out."

Juanzi couldn't help laughing as she spoke. Anyway, Xiaoqing always said that she was a foodie, so this was a good opportunity for her to experience what a real foodie is like.

"Of course that's no problem. Whenever I stew bacon, I'll ask you to come over and eat with me. I guarantee that you'll be plump and white in a year."

The two of them were laughing and chatting, and the atmosphere was relaxed and happy.

"When we get to the holidays, let's go find a place to have some fun. I don't like visiting relatives and friends at home every day, eating at this house and that house."

She was not afraid of being raised like a pig, but she didn't want to greet people with a smile every day, serve tea and water, and give fruits to relatives when they came home, and endure all kinds of inquiries from aunts and uncles.

Some people are just polite and that's it, but there are always some people who like to compare with others and deliberately ask questions that you don't like, and then highlight their own superiority.

I didn’t think much of it when I was little, but the older I got, the more I hated these inquiries. I wished I could stay in my room all day and not come out.

Unfortunately, her mother would not allow her to hide and would definitely drag her along to entertain relatives and friends.

So, before that, she had to find something to do for herself. As long as she was busy, her mother wouldn't be able to do anything to her.

Listening to Juanzi's complaints and seeing her evasive look, Dai Qing actually felt a little sympathetic towards her.

She used to deal with relatives during festivals and serve people tea and water.

Not only have you done it, but you also have to endure all kinds of gossip and work hard without complaint. If you are a little unhappy, you will be scolded immediately.

Then the whole family is harmonious, but they are cold to you. They may also give you a cold look from time to time, complaining that you are not working well or not attentively.

Now, during the Chinese New Year, she can eat whatever she wants and go wherever she wants, and no one can interfere with her.

"It's boring to celebrate the New Year alone anyway. I'll ask you to come with me later. Aunt Zhang will definitely not come to arrest you if she knows you're here."

"That's true. My mom always told me to learn from you and stop being so silly. She also said that I was being sold and was just counting money for others."

When Juanzi mentioned her mother, her tone was resentful and helpless.

Anyway, she had already understood that her brain was like this, and she could never be better than Dai Qing even if she worked herself to death. Besides, Xiao Qing was her good sister, and if she really encountered problems, she could just ask her for help, and there was no need to compare.

In a blink of an eye, it is the 26th day of Ramadan, a day for all the people to have a holiday.

This morning, Dai Qing welcomed guests again.

Zhang Shunfu's driver Xiao Ye came to deliver New Year's goods.

"Miss Dai, these are the New Year's goods prepared by the hotel chef. The boss asked me to bring you a portion."

Seeing Xiao Ye coming into the yard with a lot of bags, Dai Qing quickly took them.

"Thank Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang for me. With these New Year's goods, I can have another prosperous New Year."

"That's what the boss meant. He said it's always more troublesome to prepare food by yourself. These are semi-finished products. You just need to heat them up in the pan and you can eat them. It's simple and convenient."

The most important thing is that these dishes are all made by master chefs themselves, so the quality is naturally extraordinary.

After seeing Xiaoye off, Dai Qing tidied up the food briefly and found that it was just as Xiaoye had said. There were not only chicken, duck and fish, but also sea cucumbers, abalone and other wild animals.

Each one is exquisite and beautiful.

Dai Qing took out a portion of dried duck and sea cucumber, picked out a few golden oranges, put them all in a basket, and sent it to Aunt Wang.

Zhang Pi was surprised when he saw the gift she gave him. "Xiao Qing, you even ordered New Year's gifts from the hotel?"

"These were given to me by a friend. He said they were made by a master chef from the south. The taste is slightly different from our local ones. I'm sharing them with you to try. I don't know if they taste good or not."

"Look at what you said. Such beautiful food must be delicious. I heard that chefs in the south cook very exquisitely. Today I see that it is true."

Zhang Pigeon took out two plates of food and placed them on the table. He admired them for a moment and sighed in praise.

"Oh my God, this is sea cucumber, a very nutritious thing. Xiaoqing, this is too expensive." Zhang Pigeon looked at the box of sea cucumbers and smiled until his eyes narrowed.

"I'm just lending the flowers as a gift to the Buddha, it's not a big deal."

Dai Qing smiled. Since Aunt Wang was not there, she did not stay long. She put her things down and went home.

Zhang Pigeon enthusiastically escorted her to the gate and watched her leave before returning happily and carefully putting away the food.

I became more determined in my heart that I should protect that girl more in the future and not let others bully her.

When Aunt Wang came back from patrolling the streets, Zhang Pi put out the food and showed off to her mother-in-law again, pointing at the fat sea cucumber.

"Look at the sea cucumber. It must be very expensive."
