Chapter 307 Duck and Chicken Frames
Ye Rou sat cross-legged on the sofa, flipping through a medical book in one hand and eating the spicy braised food made by the mute woman in the other.
There was a small tray on the coffee table, filled with sweet and spicy chicken racks and braised duck.
The chicken racks go through three processes: marinating, roasting, and frying. The final chicken racks are crispy and delicious, with a sweet and sour taste that is not greasy, making you unable to stop eating them.
Ye Rou likes to eat sweet and spicy duck. The cooking skills rewarded by the system happen to include a recipe. She provided the recipe and Ya Po actually made it. The braised duck she made was extremely popular.
Grandma Song’s popularity can be seen from the fact that she was caught many times for stealing ducks.
After the duck was ready, Jiang Chen stared at it. Ye Rou had never had a chance to eat it, but today she finally got to eat it.
"Hiss, so spicy."
Fine beads of sweat hung on the smooth white forehead, making the already rosy lips even more vibrant.
She picked up the iced drink, discarded the straw, and took a big gulp.
The sweet and cold liquid was like timely rain, moistening the burning mouth, throat and stomach, and the cold body trembled.
"Comfortable!"
Ye Rou stretched her legs and swung her feet happily.
She finally tasted some benefits of being angry with Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen stared at her very closely, not allowing her to eat spicy or cold food, and not giving her any chance at all.
Ye Rou couldn't find a chance to eat secretly, and no one could give her food. Jiang Chen was very strict and no spicy dishes were allowed.
When cooking, the mute woman usually stews spicy pig's trotters for others, but when it comes to her, she changes it to braised.
Although braised food is delicious, it is not as satisfying as spicy food.
In her previous life, Ye Rou loved spicy food and never had a stomachache from eating spicy food. In this life, she has a different body and gets a stomachache after eating spicy food, so she has to be restrained.
But she firmly believed that the chili pepper was not to blame, and the stomachache was because her body had not adapted to it, and she would eventually get used to it if she ate more.
But Jiang Chen was watching too closely, and Ye Rou couldn't find any chance to adapt.
But things are different now.
Jiang Chen was feeling guilty about lying to her, so he didn't dare to care about her at all.
She can just eat snacks and drink cold drinks as much as she wants.
Because of this, Ye Rou didn't want Jiang Chen to admit his mistake. It would be better to wait for a few more days so that she could enjoy herself more.
She had many delicious recipes for night markets in the future in her mind, which she could write down and ask the mute woman to make. It was a wonderful thought.
I heard some movement at the door.
Ye Rou subconsciously hid the duck in her hand behind her back. Halfway through, Ye Rou suddenly remembered that Jiang Chen didn't dare to control her now, so she took out the duck neck openly and waved it in front of Jiang Chen fearlessly.
Jiang Chen's eyes swept across the table full of spicy snacks and drinks with cold water droplets hanging from the bottles, and the veins on his forehead bulged.
He moved Ye Rou's legs with a sullen face, sat down beside her, and handed her the candied haws. "It's ready."
"Let's put it over there first." Ye Rou said casually.
She didn't like curling up her legs, so she stretched them out and placed them on Jiang Chen's legs, swinging her feet leisurely and continuing to gnaw on the duck neck.
The strong spices and spicy smell lingered in his nose. Seeing Ye Rou guzzling the icy drink due to the spiciness, Jiang Chen's patience reached its limit and he called out a warning: "Ye Rou."
Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes and tightened his jaw.
Ye Rou felt guilty being looked at, so she sat up obediently, put down the duck neck, and reached out to pick up a candied haws. "Just eat it, why are you so angry?"
She bit open a hawthorn, first it tasted the sweetness of the syrup, then the sour taste of the hawthorn exploded in her mouth, just enough to relieve the spiciness.
Ye Rou frowned at the sour taste and bit the syrup instead.
Seeing her start eating, Jiang Chen's expression softened a little.
The big wheat-colored hand naturally reached out to the spicy snacks on the coffee table, wanting to take them all away now.
Just as Jiang Chen made a move, the sound of crunching the candy stopped.
He turned around and saw Ye Rou holding the bamboo stick like a sword, with warning written in her fox eyes.
She looked like she was going to fight him to the death if he touched her snacks.
Jiang Chen has been feeling guilty lately and has lost his former self-assurance. He retracted his outstretched hand, clenched it into a fist and let it hang at his side.
Ye Rou was satisfied and started to crunch the candy again.
Jiang Chen's eyes darkened.
This can't go on any longer.
He thought of Jiang Weiguo's words, and his handsome face became slightly ferocious because of awkwardness.
Seeing Ye Rou finish eating the candied haws and was about to eat the duck, he said in a deep voice: "If you eat too much, your stomach will hurt again. Don't cry when the time comes."
Ye Rou stopped reaching for the duck and glared at Jiang Chen angrily.
The last time she ate spicy pork jerky, she ended up crying because of a stomachache and was caught by Jiang Chen. He always brought this up to criticize her.
"Didn't we agree not to mention this matter?"
Jiang Chen stared at Ye Rou's outstretched hand, his eyes dark and his meaning was very clear.
Ye Rou angrily withdrew her hand and sat cross-legged on the sofa, revealing her skin. Her black hair was tied into two braids for convenience, and her lips were bright red. She looked like an exquisite action figure, and even when she was angry, she was particularly cute.
Jiang Chen felt itchy, so he held her in his arms and kissed her ear to comfort her.
"I'm not telling you not to eat."
Ye Rou glared at him, "What do you mean?"
Jiang Chen pinched the end of her braid and looked at her quietly, "Why do you insist on eating it when you know it will make your stomach hurt?"
"I'm greedy!"
Ye Rou spoke these four words clearly and confidently.
Jiang Chen couldn't refute and his face turned slightly red.
Seeing that he had nothing to say, Ye Rou reacted, pushed him away, stood up on the sofa, and looked down at him condescendingly.
"You haven't explained your problem yet. You have no right to control me now."
Jiang Chen's eyes fell on Ye Rou's smooth and white calves, and his eyebrows raised.
Noticing his gaze, Ye Rou stepped on his chest, angrily threw the word "hooligan" and ran upstairs.
"What a little monster, he's so strong."
Jiang Chen covered his aching chest with his hands, his face full of depression.
He began to consider the feasibility of Jiang Weiguo's suggestion.
——
The humming in the bathroom stopped and the warm yellow light turned off.
The bathroom door was pushed open from the inside, and Ye Rou walked out. Then a faint fragrance and water vapor came out, filling the bedroom with fragrance.
Her long black hair was soaked and water was dripping from it.
She held the towel in her fair wrist and carefully wiped her wet long hair.
She raised her head inadvertently and suddenly saw the scene in front of her, and her steps stopped abruptly.
The strength in her hands loosened, and the pink towel slipped and fell at her feet.
