Chapter 374 Grilled Fish
When Xia Lin heard Qin Sisi agree to cook for him, the corners of his mouth curved deeper, and he threw out a bunch of rainbow farts at the right time.
"As long as it's the food you make, I believe it will be delicious."
Based on Qin Sisi's skills in making hot pot last time, I believe the food made by this girl will definitely be delicious and exciting.
Qin Sisi: "..."
You really trust my cooking skills!
Just like that, the two of them quickly went to the farmers' market. Qin Sisi followed the 21st century practice and took Xia Lin around the farmers' market. After buying various seasonings and two tilapia, they happily came to Grandma Xia's grocery store.
Grandma Xia was rolling noodles in the kitchen when she suddenly saw Xia Lin and Qin Sisi coming in with bags. She was surprised, but then she smiled and said,
"Oh, I was just planning to make some noodles for dinner. I didn't expect you guys to come back and buy so many things. Are you planning to make a big dinner?"
That's right. Because Xia Lin was busy with business outside, he was often so busy that he forgot the time and even had no time to go home for dinner and sleep. This has become a long-term habit. Grandma Xia is usually alone at home. Usually after six o'clock, when Xia Lin hasn't come home yet, Grandma Xia will cook by herself in the grocery store and make something to eat.
Now seeing Qin Sisi and her son coming back with bags of food, although she was a little surprised that her son brought Qin Sisi back, she was still happy that Qin Sisi could go home with her son to cook.
Just like Xia Lin said, in all these years, he rarely met a girl he liked. Although the girl was married, he should give people an equal opportunity to compete, right?
Moreover, her son had never said so firmly that he wanted to pursue a girl, so she should support him.
For so many years, as a mother, she did ignore Xia Lin's emotional problems. Now seeing Qin Sisi and her son willing to be together, even if they were just friends, she was happy for her son. After all, his persistence paid off, didn't it?
Now the Xia family and their son have done a great job in their business. As long as Xia Lin likes her and can pursue Qin Sisi,
she doesn't mind that Qin Sisi has been married and was snatched away by her son. As long as her son likes her, she will turn a blind eye and accept it. No one knows better than her how hard her son has been through all these years.
Of course, compared to the compromise and joy in Grandma Xia's heart, Qin Sisi didn't know, but looked at Grandma Xia with a smile and said directly.
"Grandma Xia, I won't make these noodles for now. Today I want to borrow your kitchen to make you a special dinner. I originally planned to invite you to eat out, but Brother Xia Lin is especially filial to you and insisted on buying dishes and cooking them for you. So I just followed the guest's wishes."
As she said this, she waved the tilapia in her hand and took it to the sink with a smile on her face to process it.
She left time and space for the Xia family mother and son. Anyway, she had already quietly transferred all the credit for this meal to Xia Lin. Xia Lin helped her so much, and also helped her a lot on the road to entrepreneurship. When it was time for her to show her favor to Xia Lin in front of Grandma Xia, she naturally had to do it.
As for Grandma Xia, who had been in the business world for half a lifetime, how could she not know that Qin Sisi had attributed all the credit for this meal to Xia Lin, saying that he was filial, and the smile on her face became even wider. Looking at the back of Qin Sisi who was processing the fish in the pool, she praised.
"Sisi, you are too polite. How could I not know what kind of character my own son has? This kid must want to taste your cooking, so he pushed everything onto me. Thank you for tonight, and we, the mother and son of the Xia family, are in for a treat."
The girl personally brought the ingredients to cook, how could she not feel extremely happy? It is estimated that her son was thinking of this kind of warm moment, and deliberately tricked Qin Sisi to come and cook.
As she said this, Grandma Xia deliberately pinched her son's face with her hand and pretended to be angry.
"Boy, Qin Sisi has come to cook for us in person, why are you still here? Why don't you go over and help?"
After saying that, she pouted in the direction of Qin Sisi, signaling Xia Lin to go over and help Qin Sisi with the tilapia.
In a place where no one could see, Grandma Xia mouthed to her son, if you want to pursue someone, why don't you hurry up and show your courtesy, even if you just help, it's a way to keep in touch, boy!
Xia Lin's face was filled with a knowing smile, and he mouthed back to his mother in the same calm manner.
"I know, I asked your future daughter-in-law to come home and cook for you, aren't you happy?"
Of course, after the mother and son finished their silent conversation, Xia Lin did not forget to speak loudly.
"Oh, mom, don't push me. I'll go help Qin Sisi and make sure you have a sumptuous dinner."
After saying that, the mother and son smiled knowingly. Xia Lin strode towards Qin Sisi, ready to help her prepare the ingredients, and suggested thoughtfully as he walked.
"Qin Sisi, go prepare the seasonings, and I'll take care of the tilapia!"
At this moment, Qin Sisi, who was wholeheartedly preparing the ingredients, was completely immersed in the fantasy of making delicious food, and did not notice the interaction between the Xia family mother and son behind her.
Of course, she did not expect that the Xia family mother and son would communicate with each other without scruples behind her with their mouths. How could she get Xia Lin to help her prepare the ingredients and enhance their relationship?
When Xia Lin came to her side and took the unprocessed tilapia from her hand, Qin Sisi finally came to her senses and heard Xia Lin continue in a deep and mellow voice.
"I'll take care of the fish, you go and prepare the seasonings you need?"
On the way back just now, Qin Sisi told him that she wanted to eat grilled fish with red oil, and also mentioned that this seasoning used a lot and the process was quite complicated.
In this case, the two of them could only divide the work and cooperate to speed up the process.
Qin Sisi, on the other hand, didn't mind that Xia Lin took the fish in her hand to process it, after all, she had too many seasonings to prepare, so she said casually.
"Then I'll trouble you. After you prepare these two fish, put them in a basin and marinate them with salt. I'll prepare the seasonings later and we'll start grilling the fish."
"Yes!"
Xia Lin hummed, with a faint smile on his face, watching Qin Sisi pick up the seasonings and start to sort them out. The two of them stood by the pool, cooperating very well, and felt like an old couple supporting each other.
After the seasonings were prepared, Xia Lin's marinated tilapia was almost done.
