"It smells so good! My grandma's cooking is always the best!"
The stir-fried wild rabbit with green peppers and pickled cabbage in the pot smelled delicious. Yun Duo sat on a small stool by the stove, tending the fire. Her little face was flushed from the heat, but she didn't feel hot at all. She just took a deep breath and said with a look of delight. As she spoke, she looked at Yun Qi Shi with a look of pride.
“You silly child…” Madam Yun Qi shook her head with a smile and said, “As long as there is meat, it will taste good no matter who cooks it.”
"No, no. My grandma's is still the best." Yun Duo said, shaking her head.
"Alright, alright, Grandma's cooking is the most delicious. If it smells so good, you should eat more so you can grow taller," Yun Qi said with a smile.
"Mmm." Yun Duo nodded vigorously, looking very obedient.
Thinking that although Yun Duo's complexion had improved a lot recently, at least it was rosy, she was still short and small, and she didn't know if she would grow taller in the future, Yun Qi felt a little sad. She gritted her teeth and said, "Let's keep the remaining wild rabbit in a cage for now. We won't have time until we finish planting the corn, and it's not convenient to sell it. Let's just wait a couple of days for Grandma to stew it with beans, and then we can have meat again."
Thinking that beans are good for health, Yunqi scooped out another bowl of soybeans, preparing to stir-fry them later so that Yunduo could eat a small handful every day.
Yun Duo was still wondering why her frugal grandmother would eat both rabbits herself when she saw Yun Qi bring out a bowl of soybeans. She couldn't help but ask curiously, "Grandma, didn't you say you'd stew the rabbits with beans in a couple of days? Why are you scooping out the soybeans now?"
"Silly child." Madam Yunqi shook her head with a smile, looking at Yunduo and said, "Grandma is using these soybeans to fry. I've heard that these beans are good for you, and eating them with carrots can make you grow taller. We don't have carrots right now, so we'll just eat fried soybeans. After we finish planting the corn, I'll have your grandpa buy some carrot seeds, and Grandma will sow a lot of them. Then you can eat a handful of soybeans and a carrot every day, and you'll definitely grow tall."
"If you eat carrots every day, won't Duo'er turn into a little rabbit?" When Grandma told her to eat a carrot every day, Yun Duo immediately thought of rabbits. However, she knew that Yun Qi was doing it for her own good, so she was just joking.
Moreover, regardless of whether fried soybeans and carrots can actually help you grow taller, they are both quite good and nutritious. Therefore, although she inevitably thought of rabbits, she didn't object to eating them.
"This silly child." Madam Yun Qi chuckled, and even across the stove, she couldn't help but reach out and tap Yun Duo's forehead a few times with her finger. Then she said, "There's not enough food for people, who would give carrots to rabbits? It's good enough if we can give it some leaves. The leaves and stems are used to make pickles."
Yun Duo couldn't help but chuckle to herself, but then stuck out her tongue and deliberately acted coquettishly towards Yun Qi Shi: "I won't listen, I won't listen, carrots are for rabbits."
Yun Qishi looked amused, but couldn't help teasing her granddaughter: "Alright, alright, carrots are for rabbits, so does our little rabbit Duo'er want to eat a carrot?"
"I want to eat." Yun Duo nodded, her big, blinking eyes looking at Yun Qi Shi in a cute way.
"So, you're saying rabbits eat carrots, and you eat carrots too. You're both eating the same thing, so do you still want to eat this rabbit meat later?" Yun Qi continued to tease Yun Duo.
"Yes!" Yun Duo replied crisply.
This caused Yun Qi to burst into laughter.
"Aunt Yun, what's making you so happy? I can hear your laughter from outside the yard."
