After the meal, Xiao Jincheng led Zhu Ming and the others from Pengfei Company to their new company.
He pointed to the large office behind him, "President Zhu, this is the office I prepared for you. You can work here after the New Year."
Zhu Ming smiled and thanked him, "Thank you, Mr. Xiao, you're too kind."
After both parties confirmed the specific work details once again, Xiao Jincheng took Jiang Xiaoli home.
Xu Feng chuckled, "I really should take out my camera and take a picture of the two of you in this pose, you're exactly the same!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaoli stood up and asked, "We're leaving the day after tomorrow, have we prepared enough film?"
Xiao Muyu nodded helplessly, "You've been saying it so many times, I've already prepared it!"
She slumped back onto the sofa. "That's good. I was just worried about not being able to buy film when I went out to travel!"
Li Guizhi asked her, "Has Xiao Zong's situation been finalized? Is he going with us?"
When Xu Feng and Li Guizhi returned from grocery shopping with Xiao Muyu, they found them sprawled on the sofa.
Jiang Xiaoli shook her head. "He said we've been gone for too long, and he's worried about the factory. He'll fly over to celebrate the New Year with us, and then come back after the fifth day of the Lunar New Year."
Xiao Jincheng chuckled and patted his teammate on the shoulder, "Little Pear, I'm really envious that you have such a great helper as Xiao Zong!"
She chuckled, "Uncle Xiao, don't even mention it, I'm envious of myself!"
Xiao Muyu smiled lightly, "Zong Jiayu must have had some bad luck to run into a boss like you who's so stingy!"
Jiang Xiaoli jumped up in a flash. "Xiaoyu, your choice of words is inaccurate. Is there anyone as generous as me, a real miser?"
Xiao Muyu was speechless. "Fine, fine, you're the most generous, you're the most generous."
Jiang Xiaoli hugged her with a grin, "Xiaoyu, you better be nice to me lately, or I'll take all sorts of ugly photos of you in Lucheng! Hmph!"
"How could you do this!" Xiao Muyu exclaimed, reaching out to tickle her. "Are you going to take ugly photos of me again?"
Jiang Xiaoli, her Achilles' heel, rolled around on the sofa, itching so badly, "No, no, I'll make you look like a fairy!"
Xiao Muyu finally stopped, satisfied. Li Guizhi, watching from the side, couldn't help but chuckle, "Serves you right for being so smug!"
She seemed to have lost her soul, collapsing onto the sofa in a daze. "I feel like my whole being has been hollowed out."
"Hahaha!" Xiao Muyu poked her waist. "Stop pretending to be dead, get up! You've taken up the whole sofa by yourself!"
Jiang Xiaoli moved aside and gave her a resentful look. "You're no longer my beloved Xiaoyu. You're a devil."
Xiao Muyu extended her devilish claws again, "What am I?"
"Waaaah!" She jumped up from the sofa. "Devil, devil, devil! Nya nyah nyah!"
After her provocation, she dashed into the kitchen, crying, "Auntie, help me!"
The devil may be one foot tall, but the righteous are ten feet tall. In this house, the only one who can uphold justice for her is the devil's mother!
Sure enough, Xu Feng dismissed the little rain devil who had followed her with a single word, "Alright, alright, little rain won't tickle you anymore, come help us pick vegetables."
Jiang Xiaoli, who had just started a new job, dutifully helped her two mothers prepare dinner in the kitchen.
She held a bag of chicken feet. "Mom, what are you planning to do with these chicken feet?"
Li Guizhi glanced back and said, "Your aunt is planning to braise some for you tomorrow. What, have you come up with some new idea this time?"
Jiang Xiaoli chuckled, "How about you try some of my factory's new products?"
Xu Feng was very interested. "Okay, Little Pear, tell me how to make it, and we'll have a taste beforehand."
After preparing the other ingredients, Jiang Xiaoli trimmed the chicken feet's nails, put them in a pot of cold water, and added scallions, ginger, and cooking wine.
After boiling, skim off the foam. After boiling for about eight minutes, take the chicken feet out and rinse them with cold water.
Wash off the surface grease and soak it in ice water.
Then she carried a bowl of chicken feet to the dining table and said, "Xiaoyu, come and do some work!"
Xiao Muyu was engrossed in watching TV. "Why did you call me?"
Jiang Xiaoli raised an eyebrow at her, "Watch closely, do exactly what I do."
Holding a small knife, she cut open the chicken feet and awkwardly removed the bones.
Xiao Muyu watched from the side and laughed, "It's just removing bones from chicken feet! Look at how clumsy you are."
Jiang Xiaoli placed the knife directly in front of her, saying, "Here, please!"
Unwilling to admit defeat, Xiao Muyu gripped the knife and slashed at the chicken claw, only to find that the chicken claw slipped right out of her hand.
"Hahaha! You're making fun of me!"
Xiao Muyu picked up the chicken feet and successfully cut them open this time, but she couldn't get the bones out no matter what she tried.
Jiang Xiaoli directed from the side, "You start from here, oh no, wrong, wrong, it's here! That's it, sculpt it, sculpt it perfectly!"
Under her direction, Xiao Muyu peeled off the first boneless chicken claw.
She continued, "Xiaoyu, you said you aspire to be a top surgeon, shouldn't you practice your scalpel skills? Come on, let's continue!"
Jiang Xiaoli originally wanted to slack off and let Xiao Muyu do more work, but she didn't expect to inspire a girl who dreamed of wielding a scalpel.
In the days that followed, Xiao Muyu's ruthlessness when performing surgery during her medical studies scared away countless young men with budding romantic feelings.
That's a story for later, so let's leave it at that for now.
After finishing his phone call, Xiao Jincheng came out of his study and saw Jiang Xiaoli cracking sunflower seeds and giving instructions, while his daughter was busy removing bones from chicken feet.
He ruffled Jiang Xiaoli's hair. "You little rascal, are you dumping all the work on Xiaoyu?"
She chuckled, "I wanted to do it, but Xiaoyu wouldn't let me."
Sure enough, Xiao Muyu didn't even look up. "Dad, move aside, you're blocking my light."
Well, it's a case of one willing to hit and the other willing to be hit, so why did he have to say anything?
After the two mothers prepared a sumptuous dinner, Jiang Xiaoli took out a food storage container.
Add chopped chili peppers, garlic, and lemon. Pour in light soy sauce, lemon juice, vinegar, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, salt, sesame oil, and a little bit of cold boiled water and stir well.
Then put the chicken feet into the sauce, stir well, cover the container, and put it in the refrigerator.
Xiao Muyu's eyes widened. "Why did you put it in the refrigerator?"
Jiang Xiaoli touched her nose. "Hehe, it needs to be marinated well so we can eat it tomorrow."
Xiao Muyu rubbed her sore wrists. "Jiang! Xiao! Li!"
She promptly ran behind Xu Feng and said, "Auntie, I didn't say we could eat it today, right?"
Xu Feng smiled and stopped her daughter, "Alright, let's eat the same thing tomorrow, it's all in our fridge anyway!"
Xiao Muyu thought about it and agreed, "You won't get to eat any chicken feet I peeled tomorrow!"
Jiang Xiaoli made a face at her, "Hmph, Auntie will definitely save some for me!"
