Xu Yongfang and the other older women were quite efficient in getting things done.
Soon after, they bought meat, vegetables, and other ingredients.
"That's right, keep it up!" Xiaoxi praised him a few times.
The older women suddenly felt a great sense of accomplishment. Maybe it's just human nature to be like this: the stronger you are, the weaker they feel. The more powerful someone is, the more they enjoy being oppressed and enslaved.
Xu Yongfang said with a forced smile, "Mr. Ye, Miss Ye, a few of us old friends are going home to prepare dinner, is that alright?"
Ye Zhongnan nodded, telling them to be on standby in the group at any time.
Xiaoxi glanced at the time and realized it was almost noon. She was tired of the food in her school cafeteria and had lost her appetite.
I might as well have lunch at my second brother's place, take a nap, and then decide whether to go to school in the afternoon based on my mood.
Ye Zhongnan said to his younger sister affectionately, "Xiaoxi, watch your brother show you his skills at noon today."
Ye Zhongnan entered the kitchen and saw that Xu Yongfang had bought a small hen, chestnuts, eggs, pork belly, and some vegetables.
With these ingredients, Ye Zhongnan made a stewed chicken with chestnuts, stewed eggs in chicken broth, made twice-cooked pork with pork belly, and stir-fried a large plate of green vegetables.
With a three-piece iron pot set, it's time to eat in less than half an hour.
Dong Pingping, who lives upstairs, felt hungry after drinking half a bowl of porridge in the morning. She hadn't felt this way in more than half a year.
Just then, the delicious aroma of chicken soup wafted up from downstairs.
Dong Pingping immediately changed her clothes and came downstairs.
Upon seeing Dong Pingping, Ye Zhongnan paused for a moment before remembering that he had promised Dong Pingping that he would come down to forage for food as soon as he smelled it.
Ye Zhongnan added another pair of chopsticks.
Xiaoxi naturally welcomed her brother as a neighbor, because she greatly increased his luck.
Of the three people at the dinner table, Xiaoxi's favorite dishes are braised chicken with chestnuts and twice-cooked pork.
Dong Pingping couldn't eat anything too greasy, but she was overjoyed by the bowl of chicken soup with steamed eggs.
The person who can make such delicious food is not a bad person. His cousin is so cute today, and she even saved her.
As soon as Xiaoxi asked, Dong Pingping told her story.
It turns out that Dong Pingping used to be the finance director of a large company.
I resigned because I didn't get along with my boss.
We could have moved on to the next topic here, but Dong Pingping had been quiet for too long and was now very eager to speak.
"I'm just unhappy with my boss. I'm a finance expert, but he makes me drink with customers. Of course I'm not going to be polite to him."
So, during that dinner with customers, Dong Pingping pretended to be attentive to her boss by serving him food, but actually she mainly added some dishes that were incompatible with each other.
The dishes were all ordered by the boss and customers. She really doesn't understand science. If it were her, she would never order like that.
Then, the boss got drunk and insisted that Dong Pingping accompany her to catch the subway back to the company.
My boss is good-looking, but he has a peculiar habit of posing on the subway to attract admiring glances and flirtations from girls.
Knowing her boss was in trouble, Dong Pingping kept her distance on the subway.
Sure enough, a short while later, a loud fart filled the entire carriage, and that stop was particularly long.
The boss's broth was too loose; he couldn't hold it in, and it spilled all over the floor from his trouser leg.
"Hahahaha!" Xiaoxi suddenly burst into laughter.
Ye Zhongnan frowned. "You two have finished eating, but I'm still eating."
After being disturbed like this, Ye Zhongnan took the dishes and chopsticks to the kitchen.
"Pingping, you're so good at this, hahaha!" Xiaoxi suddenly felt a surge of affection for Dong Pingping and really liked her personality.
Dong Pingping is a good person; we can get to know each other.
"What happened next?" Xiaoxi asked, curious about what happened next.
"Later, everyone in the subway car was swearing at me because of the stench, and my boss even fined me and made me pay compensation. Of course, I couldn't just stand there like an idiot, so I pretended not to know anything and slipped away."
