"Sister Jinfeng..." Zhang Xiaobao pouted, looking like he was about to cry.
Li Jinfeng's heart softened, and she could only nod, "Okay!"
As soon as Li Jinfeng finished speaking, the person who had looked pitiful before, the next second was like a chicken blood injection, with an excited face, "Great! Sister Jinfeng is willing to stay, I'm going to go wash my hands!"
Zhang Xiaobao went to the kitchen to fetch water to wash his hands, followed closely by Li Jinfeng and Grandma Zhang.
Grandma Zhang said, "Jinfeng, don't take it to heart. Xiaobao has few friends and likes to stick with you, so..."
"It's okay. Since I agreed, I must be willing and happy to do it!" Li Jinfeng said.
There's nothing special about her. Before making a decision, she might think about all sorts of things, but once she makes a decision, she won't be so conflicted.
What's more, as Grandma Zhang said, Zhang Xiaobao has few friends and it's rare for him to be happy, so why should she spoil his fun?
After washing his hands, Zhang Xiaobao looked at the dishes on the table and his mouth was watering.
On weekdays, when Li Jinfeng was not over, the family basically boiled green leafy vegetables, occasionally adding a small spoonful of rapeseed oil or lard.
Usually when grandma feels that he has worked too hard, she adds some oil to nourish him.
A jar of lard and rapeseed oil, both sent by Li Jinfeng, was kept very sparingly by Grandma Zhang, fearing that they would be gone once they were eaten up.
For Zhang Xiaobao, it is rare to eat dishes like the one Li Jinfeng cooked today, only once a year.
"Don't be polite, just eat!" said Li Jinfeng.
Zhang Xiaobao started eating.
Li Jinfeng drank tofu soup and also tasted some bean sprouts.
Soy products are rich in nutrients, but pregnant women should not eat too much.
Li Jinfeng's fried pork belly was the most fragrant. Zhang Xiaobao looked at it but didn't know how to eat it because there was a plate of vegetables on the side.
"Like this..." Li Jinfeng demonstrated. She used vegetable leaves, put pork belly on them, and scooped a little bit of chopped chili from the small bowl next to her. She wrapped the pork belly and chopped chili and stuffed them into her mouth.
The whole thing is fat but not greasy, fragrant and spicy.
Zhang Xiaobao stared with his eyes wide open. It was the first time he saw someone eating meat like this.
Following suit, after eating a piece, his eyes narrowed, "Delicious!"
“It’s delicious, eat more!”
Li Jinfeng cut eight pieces of pork belly. She ate one piece herself and gave the remaining seven pieces to Zhang Xiaobao and Grandma Zhang.
"Grandma Zhang, don't just stand there and watch, eat too!" said Li Jinfeng.
"I... I'm old and my teeth can't bite it anymore. You and Xiaobao eat it!" said Grandma Zhang.
"Grandma Zhang, you can't eat too much good things at one time. If you eat too much, you will have diarrhea. You gave it all to Xiaobao and me, and we can't gain weight. What if we eat too much meat and get diarrhea?" Li Jinfeng said.
She knew that Grandma Zhang was worried that she and Xiaobao didn't have enough to eat, so she wanted to save some for them.
But she didn't want such a sacrifice.
Zhang Xiaobao also nodded heavily, "Grandma, our teacher also said that we can't eat too much meat, or we'll get diarrhea!"
"Okay...okay, I'll eat it!" said Grandma Zhang.
There were eight pieces of meat. Li Jinfeng ate one piece, Grandma Zhang ate two pieces, and so did Zhang Xiaobao.
There are three pieces left, which I saved to eat tomorrow.
Li Jinfeng felt sad when she saw this. Only in this era would people save a piece of meat for tomorrow. You have to know that in her previous life, the people around Li Jinfeng could eat a big bowl of meat in one meal. If they couldn't finish it, most people would just throw it away.
