Gu Jiuyan almost choked on the fried rice in his mouth. As he struggled to process the bad news, his remaining sanity forced him to run outside.
Having barely escaped death, he didn't want to die at the hands of his own mother too early.
Chen Yunshu suddenly felt something was wrong, put away the smile on his face and immediately chased after him.
At this time, she still didn't understand how powerful her dear mother-in-law's kitchen killer was. Until one day, she couldn't resist Gu's mother's gaze and drank a bowl of chicken soup that looked nothing like what she had. That night, she vomited and had diarrhea and was rushed to the hospital by Gu Jiuyan.
From then on, she never touched anything cooked by Gu's mother again.
Fortunately, the scene that Gu Jiuyan feared most did not happen.
In the small kitchen, Mother Gu stayed aside honestly, while the elderly Grandma Gu was busy. She put the chopped chicken on the chopping board into the hot casserole to cook. She even threw half a piece of ginseng into the pot because she felt it was not nutritious enough.
She loves her grandson so much that she just wants him to get better soon, but she doesn't dare to give him too much supplements.
My granddaughter-in-law is still pregnant, so there are some things we can’t do rashly.
Gu Jiuyan, who was standing at the door, saw this scene and breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, his life was saved.
At this time, Grandma Gu and Mother Gu also noticed Gu Jiuyan and Shen Yunshu standing at the door.
"Didn't Shushu say you were injured? Why did you come out instead of just lying in bed?" Mother Gu looked at her son, whose face had turned pale, feeling a little worried.
I don't know who this kid learned this from, but he's developed the habit of keeping things to himself since he was young. He won't tell anyone even if he's hurt.
If she hadn't heard from her daughter-in-law that he was injured, she would probably still be kept in the dark.
"I..." A trace of panic flashed across the calm and composed Gu Jiuyan's face. After his brain was stuck for two seconds, he said, "It's too stuffy in the room. Let's go out for some fresh air."
With his fucking temper, if he told the truth, crying would be secondary. The important thing is that in the next week, Mrs. Gu will become more and more frustrated and might even burn down the kitchen.
Shen Yunshu, who knew the truth, covered his mouth and laughed secretly. It seemed that Gu Jiuyan, who prided himself on being upright, would also lie one day.
She really discovered a new world.
Mother Gu didn't doubt the truth of his words. She just thought he had been in the house for too long and wanted to come out for some fresh air. But when she saw his thin sweater, she became anxious again:
"It's freezing outside, and you're still injured. Go back to the house and rest. I'm here in the kitchen..."
As soon as she said that, Mother Gu regretted it. Meeting her son's indescribable look, she immediately changed her words: "Your grandmother is in the kitchen. When the soup is ready, I will serve it to you and bring it to the house."
Gu Jiuyan turned his head to look at Grandma Gu. Grandma Gu understood what her grandson meant and nodded immediately: "I'll be watching here, nothing will happen. You and Shushu should go back to the house and rest."
Only then did Gu Jiuyan help Shen Yunshu slowly return to the house.
As Gu Jiuyan's biological mother, Gu's mother also wanted to do something for her son, so she turned her head and stared at the steaming casserole.
"Mom, I'm here, go and rest."
Grandma Gu looked at her daughter-in-law in front of her with a complicated expression. Thinking of what she had promised her grandson before he left, she immediately rejected Gu's mother.
"After all these years, why haven't you realized that you're a culinary idiot?"
Mother Gu's face instantly turned red like a flaming cloud. Thinking of what she had done before, she lost confidence in what she said: "...That's all in the past...I even cooked noodles for Jiuyan and Shushu yesterday..."
"After all these years, you've only learned how to cook noodles." Grandma Gu wanted to laugh when she thought about how she had taught her daughter-in-law to cook noodles.
To tell whether the noodles are cooked or not, you can just look at the noodles you take out of the pot and see if they hang on the wall when you throw them out. If they hang on the wall without falling off, it means the noodles in the pot are cooked, otherwise they are not cooked.
She taught her daughter-in-law how to cook noodles. One time, she came home late because of something, and when she got home, she saw the kitchen wall was covered with noodles.
Her daughter-in-law was unsure whether the noodles in the pot were cooked, so she threw them against the wall one by one to test them. Only the noodle soup was left in the pot, without a single noodle.
The final result was to clean up the noodles that were thrown on the wall and feed them to the big yellow dog of the Wan family.
Good noodles made from white flour were wasted just like that. And this kind of incident happened more than once.
Every time she thought about it, Grandma Gu would sigh that she was not a bad mother-in-law who bullied her daughter-in-law. Otherwise, with Gu's mother's ability to destroy food, she would have been scolded to death long ago.
"...I fried eggs yesterday..." However, thinking of the fried eggs that were as black as charcoal and as broken as crumbs, she felt guilty and didn't dare to go to see Grandma Gu.
When Grandma Gu saw her look, her heart was as bright as a mirror: "Being able to fry eggs is also a kind of progress. Tell Mom, did you burn the eggs last night?"
Mother Gu, who hadn't recovered from the joy of being praised, blurted out: "How did you know I burnt the eggs?"
Grandma Gu smiled like an old fox. She said, how come her stupid daughter-in-law's cooking skills improved so much that she learned to fry eggs? It turned out that she burned them.
Her guess turned out to be correct.
At this time, Gu's mother realized that she had been fooled. She was angry and wanted to laugh, and her face turned red in the end.
"My daughter-in-law needs to drink the soup in the pot later. She's pregnant now, so this is not the time to fool around. If you're bored, go and chat with Shushu."
After Shen Yunshu became pregnant, she rarely went out. She spent most of her time at home listening to Mother Gu and Grandma Gu tell her gossip, especially since it had just snowed a few days ago. Now that the weather was good and sunny, the roads were full of melted snow and were muddy.
You can slip if you're not careful.
Because of this, the people from the Gu and Chen families were even more worried about Shen Yunshu going out.
Fortunately, Shen Yunshu, who was pregnant, also knew her physical condition, so she stayed at home to wait for the birth of her baby, and would walk around the house from time to time.
The book says that proper exercise for pregnant women helps with the delivery of the fetus.
Thinking of her pregnant daughter-in-law, Mother Gu no longer insisted and quietly stayed aside to learn how to make soup.
She was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she failed in cooking. Sometimes, she couldn't understand it.
In the end, she couldn't figure it out and could only attribute it all to the fact that while God opened several doors for her, he completely closed the door to the God of Cooking.
The ginseng, wolfberry and red date chicken soup had been simmering on low heat on the stove for two hours. The whole room was filled with the aroma of chicken soup. Shen Yunshu couldn't wait to pick up the bowl to taste it, but was stopped by Gu Jiuyan.
"Grandma, this chicken soup..."
Grandma Gu, who knew what her grandson wanted to say, quickly replied, "I made this soup from start to finish. No one else has touched it."
Others specifically pointed out Gu's mother.
