He came to the kitchen, put on an apron. The white apron made his waist look even straighter. He started working at the kitchen counter.
Luo Shuning helped by washing the vegetables and arranging them on a plate, looking very fresh and juicy.
Tang's mother was watching TV and chatting with the girls in the living room. After some time, she couldn't contain her curiosity anymore and got up and walked to the kitchen door.
I want to see the specific situation and see if there is anything I can help with.
As soon as I approached, I smelled a strong aroma of meat. Two dishes had already been served.
Then Gu Luo was seen holding a piece of beef with his left hand and holding a kitchen knife with his right hand. The blade rose and fell rapidly on the chopping board. The "thump, thump, thump" sound was even and sharp, and the beef was cut into even-sized slices.
When he turned around to process the sea bass, he nimbly pinched the fish's gills with his fingers and lightly drew the blade along the fish bones, separating the fish meat from the bones. The fish slices were as thin as cicada wings and almost translucent under the light.
It was obviously going to be a big meal.
After preparing the ingredients, heat the oil in a pan.
The hot oil in the wok sizzles, and minced garlic and ginger are poured in. With a slight flip of the wrist, the spatula draws a beautiful arc in the wok, and the aroma spreads instantly.
Tang's mother's eyes widened as she watched - although she was a mother and often cooked at home, her cooking skills were at best "edible" and average in all aspects. Where had she ever seen such smooth cooking skills?
The knife strokes were precise, the heat was controlled just right, and even the movements of flipping the wok were indescribably neat and slick, like a seasoned hotel chef who had practiced for decades.
"Xiao Luo and Xiao Ning are amazing."
Tang's mother praised sincerely, and watched Luo Shuning hand over the sauce. The two cooperated well, and she said with emotion in her heart.
Both children are so outstanding, and their cooking skills are so great.
Truly a dodecagonal warrior.
"Of course, Shu Ning usually cooks."
Gu Luo smiled and raised the spatula, and the hot oil splashed tiny sparks.
Tang's mother understood clearly that the subtext of these words was "I made this especially for you today." Her opinion of this child was raised several notches higher - not only was he excellent, but he was also so thoughtful and considerate.
After a brief chat about family matters, Tang's mother took advantage of the time when the two of them were not busy to gently close the kitchen door, blocking out the laughter outside.
She took a deep breath, bent down solemnly and bowed deeply to Gu Luo and Luo Shuning.
"Auntie, what are you doing?"
Gu Luo and Luo Shuning looked at each other and quickly reached out to help.
Tang's mother didn't stand up, but kept bowing, her voice choking a little, "Thank you for taking care of Xiaoxiao every day."
She didn't say a long speech, just this one sentence, but it contained all the gratitude, guilt, and peace of mind she had felt for a long time. It was so heavy that Gu Luo and Luo Shuning paused.
The range hood in the kitchen was still running on low, but the thank you sounded particularly clear and hot in the quiet space.
Tang's mother didn't want Tang Xiaoxiao to see this scene, for fear of putting pressure on her.
This is something I must thank you for.
As a mother, she could naturally keenly sense Tang Xiaoxiao's increasingly poor mental state, but recently, she seemed much better.
It goes without saying who deserves the credit for this.
Gu Luo and Luo Shuning looked at each other and chose to accept the bow, so that Tang's mother would feel at ease and accept it.
"Auntie, don't worry, we all sincerely treat Xiaoxiao as our younger sister."
"Yes, Xiaoxiao is our little sister."
The two said sincerely.
Hearing this, Tang's mother's nose felt a little sore. She rubbed her eyes before slowly standing up and saying softly, "Thank you, thank you so much."
Gu Luo was afraid that the mother would cry if this continued, so he quickly changed the subject: "Auntie, we are planning to go back to our hometown next weekend and would like to take Xiao Xiao with us. There is a temple in Gang Tu's hometown that is particularly spiritual. Gang Tu can pray for Xiao Xiao. Is that okay with you?"
"Of course, thank you so much for troubling you."
When Tang's mother learned about this yesterday, she agreed without any hesitation.
Xiaoxiao really needed to go out and relax, but they never had the time.
Gu Luo then pretended to be angry and said, "Auntie, didn't I tell you that Xiaoxiao is our younger sister? You can't be so formal with her."
"Yeah, huh."
Mother Tang felt warm in her heart. Looking at the handsome and outstanding boy in front of her, she couldn't help but think how happy it would be if Tang Xiaoxiao could be with him when he grew up. He would definitely not be bullied and would have so many gentle sisters around to take care of him.
Unfortunately, this is impossible.
Let’s not talk about how outstanding Gu Luo is, he has a girlfriend now.
Thinking of this, she sighed subconsciously: "Shu Ling is so lucky to have such an outstanding boyfriend like you, Xiao Luo."
As soon as these words came out, Luo Shuning looked at Gu Luo immediately.
Gu Luo blinked and almost forgot about it.
The first time he met Tang's mother, she was indeed on a date with Luo Shuling, and he directly acknowledged their identities at that time.
Now it seems that Tang's mother still doesn't know that Luo Shuhe is his real girlfriend.
But as for this matter, just go to the comment section of some of Gu Luo’s videos and you can see a lot of people shipping him and Luo Shuhe.
But how do you explain this?
Although Tang's mother is very busy on weekdays, it is only a matter of time before she gets the message.
