Chapter 391 Asking for Advice from Senior Brother
Ye Jiaojiao was pulled aside by Ye Xiao and asked to make some glutinous rice wrapped in fried dough sticks for herself. Yun Che, Bai Feng and the others saw this and came over to help.
They were all very nimble, including the youngest, Edward, who, despite being short, squeezed in between Yun Che and the others and diligently wrapped dumplings.
When making wontons, it is not advisable to put too much meat filling, as it will make them greasy. Ye Jiaojiao gave this instruction, and Yun Che and the others did as she said.
Seeing that everyone was doing well, Ye Jiaojiao made herself a sweet glutinous rice wrapped in fried dough sticks.
While chewing, she tasted the mellow aroma of glutinous rice and was attracted by the sweet yet salty fried dough sticks. In the end, she ate a large one by herself.
After she had filled her stomach a little, the dumplings were almost ready.
She placed the prepared dumplings next to the stove, turned on the fire, waited for the water in the pot to boil, added a tablespoon of salt, and then put the dumplings in and boiled them over high heat.
To prevent the food from sticking to the pot or overcooking, Ye Jiaojiao did not cover the pot. While the food was still cooking, she took out five bowls from the sterilizer and added three tablespoons of chili oil, two tablespoons of soy sauce, one tablespoon of sesame oil and half a tablespoon of chicken powder into the five bowls in turn. Finally, she sprinkled in one tablespoon of chopped green onions and waited to be removed from the pot.
During this time, Ye Jiaojiao added water to the pot once. When the dumplings floated up again, she picked up the bamboo colander, quickly scooped up the dumplings and drained the water, then poured them into the bowls with the sauces prepared.
Wontons don’t require that much water, and the main dish is the red oil sauce. Ye Jiaojiao added a little soup for Edward, who is afraid of spicy food.
"The red oil wontons are ready, come and help yourself."
After everything was packed, Ye Jiaojiao quickly turned around and shouted towards the kitchen door. Ye Xiao came in to serve them, and Ye Jiaojiao took the opportunity to clean up the stove.
The group returned to the restaurant. Not much time had passed and the bowls of noodles were still covered in mist.
Bai Feng took a bite first. The wonton wrapped in chili oil sauce tasted particularly delicious and tender in the mouth. There wasn't much meat filling after biting through the dough, but the aroma of the pork filling was very rich.
When the other people at the table saw Bai Feng eat four or five in a row, they also started to take action.
"Junior sister's cooking skills have improved again."
"Mm, it's delicious indeed."
Yun Che and Ye Xiao were rather reserved in their praise. They cast admiring glances at Ye Jiaojiao one after another, followed by the youngest, Edward.
"Sister Jiaojiao, the food you cook is so delicious!"
After being together for such a long time, Edward has become an integrated part of this family from his initial wariness and prickliness.
At this moment, the look he gave Ye Jiaojiao was the same as Ye Xiao's, as if he was looking at his own sister, with a pair of big round eyes, looking very well-behaved.
Ye Jiaojiao smiled back, rubbed Edward's little head, and said:
"Edward, if you want to eat anything in the future, remember to tell your sister."
"good!"
Edward nodded heavily when he heard this, and an even happier smile broke out on his face.
Ye Jiaojiao was just about to say something when she suddenly felt a chilling and powerful gaze coming from the front right.
She turned her head and saw Ye Xiao staring at her sinisterly.
Thinking back to her interaction with Edward just now, Ye Jiaojiao guessed that her arrogant and stinky brother was jealous.
With a chuckle, Ye Jiaojiao raised her hand and placed it directly on Ye Xiao's head.
"Xiaoxiao, you're the same. Just tell me what you want to eat."
"Sassy."
Feeling the weight on his head, Ye Xiao pursed his lips and hummed. Although he said something cheesy, he did not slap Ye Jiaojiao's hand away nor did he hide.
Seeing this, Ye Jiaojiao laughed secretly in her heart.
She's really jealous of Edward.
After breakfast, Ye Xiao went to school, and Edward also returned to his room, preparing to go to the second world to take some online courses.
Yun Che and Bai Feng had nothing to do except practice, so Ye Jiaojiao pulled them into the living room to chat.
After sitting for a while, Ye Jiaojiao suddenly remembered something.
"Big Brother, there is actually something I want to ask you."
As soon as the words fell, before the person involved, Yun Che, could respond, Bai Feng rushed to Ye Jiaojiao's side, not forgetting to summon his natal spirit sword.
"Little Junior Sister, are you in trouble? Tell Fourth Senior Brother, and I'll pick up my sword and wipe out all those people!"
Bai Feng was originally sitting on Yun Che's left side, but now with this pounce he was directly blocking Yun Che and Ye Jiaojiao, and blocking them tightly.
Yun Che's face darkened, and he grabbed Bai Feng by the collar and threw him out.
"Silence."
Being glared at and scolded by the eldest brother, Bai Feng was not afraid at all. He took one step at a time and tried to keep quiet, but still came back silently.
Ye Jiaojiao watched the whole thing and felt a little amused and helpless.
Her four senior brothers are all really funny~
The eldest brother is fair and self-disciplined at home, but cold-hearted and indifferent to others. Occasionally, he would be so angry with the third and fourth brothers that he would want to kill them, and he would be especially partial to her.
The second brother doesn't care about any female friends, and is devoted to studying all kinds of strange techniques. He works so hard that he forgets to eat and sleep, and even wants to drag her to starve with him.
The third senior brother was unruly, and the fourth senior brother often said that if the third senior brother had not become their disciple, he would have been torn into pieces by the enemies long ago.
Not to mention the fourth senior brother, the famous Laughing Demon King in the cultivation continent only gave a little face to the master and the eldest senior brother.
Ye Jiaojiao was distracted for a moment and recalled the days when she was in the cultivation continent.
The master did not despise her for being a useless person. With the company and protection of her four senior brothers, she smiled every day and was really happy.
Noticing that Ye Jiaojiao was distracted, Yun Che and Bai Feng exchanged a glance. After waiting for a moment, Bai Feng curiously asked her:
"Junior Sister, why are you distracted?"
"Big Brother, Fourth Brother, I miss Master, as well as Second Brother and Third Brother. I don't know how they are doing." As the memories faded away, Ye Jiaojiao felt a little depressed for a rare time and sighed softly.
“Don’t worry, little junior sister. Master has successfully ascended to heaven. I can find out from somewhere that one day we will be able to see Master again.” Yun Che comforted Ye Jiaojiao in a gentle voice when he heard her say that she missed her master.
After Yun Che finished comforting Bai Feng, he immediately echoed, "That's right, Little Junior Sister, you have to trust Senior Brother and stop overthinking it. Besides, don't you have me and Senior Brother with you now? Why would you miss Second Senior Brother and the others?"
Ye Jiaojiao was just a little depressed for a while, but she quickly recovered after being comforted by her two senior brothers. Yun Che just took the opportunity to continue the previous topic.
"What did you want to ask me just now, Junior Sister?"
"Well, Senior Brother, Ah Ming's birthday is coming soon. This is the first birthday I've spent with him. I want to give him a special gift, but I don't know what to give him, so I wanted to ask you."
Si Ming and Yun Che are really similar in some aspects, so Ye Jiaojiao wanted to ask her senior brother if he had any good suggestions.
Yun Che was stunned at first, then he thought carefully and replied:
"Si Ming is a man of integrity and honesty. He is sincere to me, Junior Sister. If you want to say something special, Junior Sister, why not give me the most sincere gift?"
