Ling Chuan couldn't hide his happiness at receiving Shao Lin's praise and affirmation.

"I have never had a proper apprenticeship. I just worked as a handyman in the kitchen before. Sometimes when the chef was too busy, I would help him cook one or two dishes. He would give me some pointers."

Shao Lin nodded, tried other dishes, and praised them as he ate.

"Xiao Ling, you can cook dishes to this level by self-study. It seems that you have a talent in this area. It just so happens that you have nothing to do now. Do you have any idea of ​​opening a restaurant or something?"

It was rare for Shao Lin to appreciate him, and Ling Chuan was both surprised and frightened.

"Dad, I'm actually interested in other projects right now."

"Oh? Tell me, what project is it?"

Ling Chuan was about to put down his chopsticks and was about to have a good chat with Shao Lin about his thoughts, when Shao Mo spoke up, "Dad, let's eat first. The food will get cold soon. After dinner, go to the study and talk slowly."

"Yes, listen to Momo and eat first."

Ling Chuan nodded quickly, picked up his chopsticks and continued eating.

After dinner, the father-in-law and son-in-law went to the study to discuss something. Shao Mo picked some grapes from the space and made a pot of jasmine tea, which she sent to the study.

After finishing all this, she was about to go to the greenhouse to take a look when Zeng Fang came back pushing a bicycle.

The nights were already quite cold at this time of year, but Zeng Fang's cheeks were flushed and she was panting, as if she had ridden a long way.

"Fangfang, did you go out to play with your friends?"

"Ah, no, I'm trying to lose weight now. I run in the school playground every day after school, and then I ride my bike back in a big circle."

Shao Mo didn't comment on her claim of losing weight, "Have you had dinner?"

"I ate it. I bought a big chicken drumstick..."

After saying that, he realized that he had given the cat out of the bag and quickly changed his words, "But I only ate two bites and fed the rest to the dog."

Meeting Shao Mo's half-smiley eyes, Zeng Fang's face turned red unnaturally, and she weakly explained: "I was very hungry after the exercise, and I couldn't help but bought a chicken drumstick and a pancake to eat."

Shao Mo was helpless, "If you really want to lose weight, you can eat chicken legs as much as you want, but don't eat pancakes."

"Ah, what happens when you eat pancakes?"

"You will get fat. Pasta produces a lot of glycogen, which leads to fat accumulation in the body. The fried dough sticks, crispy biscuits and various sauces in the pancakes are also high in calories. Eating these is worse than eating rice and meat.

How about this, from now on, you should carry some cucumbers and tomatoes with you every day, and eat a cucumber or a tomato before meals. For dinner, try to eat only pure chicken, fish, shrimp and beef, and a tomato or a cucumber. If you are not full, you can eat one more cucumber, but do not eat staple foods such as rice and noodles. "

Zeng Fang nodded, "Is it okay to eat chicken legs and beef?"

"Yes, but you can't eat barbecue. Braised or stewed food is fine."

"Okay, I understand. Can I lose weight by eating like this?"

"If you can stick to it for a week and do some exercise, you can lose three or four pounds in a week."

Zeng Fang counted on her fingers, "If I lose three or four pounds a week, wouldn't I be able to lose more than ten pounds in a month?"

"That's about right."

"What about breakfast and lunch?"

"You can eat normally, but you still have to avoid fried food and sweets. It's okay to eat a little bit occasionally, but you can't indulge."

Zeng Fang felt terrible when she heard that she couldn’t eat fried food and sweets.

"I, I'll try my best."

"You do make sense. Okay, I won't eat ice cream cones or fried dough sticks anymore."

Shao Mo patted her shoulder encouragingly and said, "It will be difficult in the first two days. In fact, once you develop good eating habits, you will naturally lose interest and desire for sweets and fried foods.

Losing weight is not only for beauty, but also a way to cultivate self-discipline. There is a saying that if you can't even control your weight, how can you control your life?

Fangfang, believe me, losing weight is much easier than taking the entrance exam for Beijing Foreign Studies University. When you lose weight, you gain not only beauty and confidence, but also a self-disciplined lifestyle. "

Zeng Fang nodded heavily, "Momo, I must succeed in losing weight this time!"

"Momo, are you finished?"

Shao Lin's voice came from behind. Shao Mo turned around and found that the father-in-law and son-in-law had come out of the study at some point and were standing side by side under the eaves.

"Uncle Shao, it turns out that the car parked at the entrance of the alley is yours. I thought it was someone else's rich relative who came, but I didn't expect it was ours." Zeng Fang walked over with a smile.

Shao Lin also laughed, "Yeah, I came to see how you guys are doing."

Shao Lin had an appointment to discuss something in the evening and left soon.

Zeng Fang went to take a shower, while Shao Mo and Ling Chuan went to the study to talk about something.

"Wife, Dad supports my idea very much and said that if I have financial difficulties, I can ask him for help."

Looking at the man's excited face, Shao Mo took out a passbook from the space.

"Take this."

Ling Chuan took it and saw that it was a new passbook opened in his name with 300,000 yuan already deposited in it.

"Wife, why do you give me so much money?"

"This is the start-up capital I'm lending you. I'm going to military training in two days. It's inconvenient to communicate in the army. You can take the money. If you're determined, act quickly and don't hesitate."

"However, when you are out, don't trust anyone easily, even the elderly, the weak, women and children. Bad people are often best at disguise and deception. Also remember one thing, there is no such thing as a free lunch. No one will be nice to you for no reason. If someone does, it must be for ulterior motives."

Ling Chuan nodded, "Wife, I will remember it."

The next morning, Shao Mo took a class leave and personally sent Ling Chuan to the airport.

When I got back to school, there happened to be a plane flying into the sky in the distance, leaving a white mark on the blue sky.

Have a safe journey.

Shao Mo muttered to herself and walked towards the School of Engineering.

"Momo, you actually learned to skip classes. Luckily I was smart and checked in for you."

As soon as they entered the engineering school, Zhong Xiaochen appeared out of nowhere, took her arm and asked for credit, "Hey, am I smart?"

"Yeah, but it's a bit too smart."

"What do you mean?"

"I didn't come this morning because I asked for leave from my counselor."

“…”

Zhong Xiaochen quickly recovered and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Old man Li has poor eyesight anyway, he definitely won't recognize me. By the way, why did you ask for leave? Are you feeling unwell? Military training is about to begin, you have to take good care of yourself. It will be very uncomfortable for you to go through military training while you are sick."
