Seeing that his wife had eaten too much spicy food, Zhou Ming was still a little worried. He poured a bowl of kelp soup and placed it next to her, "Have some soup."
Liu Li was almost full. She scooped the rice and vegetables in the bowl into her mouth, chewed them and swallowed them. She picked up the soup bowl and took a sip. "Ah~ so comfortable." It had been a long time since she had eaten such authentic spicy food. Moreover, Manman's cooking skills were better than before.
At this time, Zhou Fen also remembered, "Xiao Li, it was Manman who was invited to the wedding banquet in the countryside back then." Her sister-in-law mentioned it to her last time, but she didn't take it to heart. Now she remembered it while eating.
"Yes, Auntie, it wasn't just us. At that time, whenever there was a big event or a New Year's Eve dinner, we would ask our Chef Xu to be the chef.
Before she came, I thought I was the best cook among the educated youth. But after tasting her cooking, I don’t dare to show off my skills anymore.”
Wang Fangfang wiped her daughter's dirty mouth with a handkerchief, added a piece of bitter melon stuffed with meat, cut it into small pieces and put it in her bowl, "That's really it! I haven't seen Leilei eat so happily in a long time."
Wang Yang teased his granddaughter, "Leilei, is the food Aunt Manman cooked delicious?"
Lei Lei, with rice in her mouth, replied to her grandfather, "It's delicious. Grandpa, I can eat it every day."
Xu Manman was particularly satisfied with the little foodie's support. "Sure, then you can stay at my aunt's house. I'll stew meat for you every day."
Hearing this, Leilei frowned in confusion. She wanted to eat meat but didn't want to leave her mother, but that didn't stop her from chewing the rice.
Her mouth kept moving and she looked at her mother with watery eyes.
The adults around found it funny. Wang Fangfang patted her head and said, "Okay, Mommy will ask Auntie how to make it later and then make it for you when she gets home."
Lei Lei happily sat on the chair and weighed it. "Great! Then I can eat such delicious meat every day."
Liu Li also said, "I really envy Chen Ming now. He can eat such delicious food every day."
"Then you're wrong. My eldest cousin is now a master cook. He usually cooks."
It’s strange to say, they had stayed in the countryside for so long before, and Chen Ming always watched him cook, but his cooking skills just couldn’t improve. This summer, maybe with the brothers to compete with, his cooking skills have improved by leaps and bounds.
"Really? Then I'll come with Zhou Ming during my vacation, and you can help me teach Zhou Ming." Liu Li pushed her husband out without any hesitation.
Zhou Fen also said, "When your Uncle Wang is free, ask him to come over and learn a thing or two. That way I can relax a little more."
Wang Yang really didn't expect that the fire could burn him. "It's okay for Mingming and Leilei to come here to learn, but I'd better not bother with it at my age."
Zhou Fen glanced at her husband and said, "Haha."
After dinner, the sun outside grew higher, so Xu Manman led everyone to the living room on the east wing, which was a little cooler because there were children and pregnant women there. After dinner, Xu Manman made some fruit tea.
Zhou Fen looked at the large chunks of fruit flesh visible in the cup and asked, "Is this apple and rose?"
"Well, this is a gift from a friend. It tastes pretty good when brewed." This was hidden in the things Xiao Jin sent me last time. After asking, I found out that it was made by him outside.
Zhou Fen took a sip and smelled a fruity and floral aroma. It tasted sour and sweet. "This is good. Pregnant women can drink it too."
"I still have quite a lot, I'll take some back later."
"How can this be so embarrassing? You should keep it for yourselves." Fresh apples are not cheap to begin with, and drying them would cost even more. Zhou Fen felt embarrassed to take advantage of the children.
"My eldest cousin doesn't like this kind of drink, and I can't drink that much by myself. Besides, even though it's dried, it can't be kept for too long. If everyone takes it home and drinks it, it won't be a waste."
After hearing this, Zhou Fen stopped insisting.
After lunch, no one planned to stay for dinner. At around 3 o'clock, Leilei was so sleepy that she started rubbing her eyes, so Wang Yang said goodbye.
Xu Manman wrapped the scented tea in oil paper, one package for each of the three families, and also wrote two recipes for Wang Fangfang.
When we went back, we were taken to the back door and the car was parked there, so it was more convenient to go out directly.
After the people left, Chen Ming checked the doors front and back and locked all the courtyard doors that needed to be locked.
Back in the east wing living room, Xu Manman told them about the embarrassing incident when she first took them to visit the front yard.
After listening, Chen Ming suggested, "Let's clean it every two weeks. If an empty house is not taken care of for a long time, it will easily age."
