When the first lunch box was opened, the aroma of chicken wafted through the room.
When the second lunch box was opened again, the rich aroma of meat drifted out through the crack in the door.
“Wow, it smells so good!”
Zhao Sujue, Zhao Suxiao, and Zhao Subu all looked eagerly at the lunch box on the table. Even the older Zhao Subu kept looking at the chicken in the lunch box.
But what made Nan Yi curious was that he could see that Zhao Sumian's brothers and sisters were all craving for chicken, but none of them came forward, sat at the table and started eating.
"Auntie, Su Mian, Big Sister, come over and try some of my cooking skills."
Nan Yi greeted everyone. Why did he come here today?
Isn't it just to show off one's abilities and please one's future wife?
But the chicken is displayed, but we only look at it and don’t eat it. What does this mean?
Without waiting for anyone to speak, Zhao Sumian walked over to Nan Yi and whispered, "At my house, we won't have dinner until my dad comes back."
"Forehead......"
Nan Yi was a little surprised. It seemed that the Zhao family was a family with strict family education. He then looked at the chicken on the table. It would not taste good if it got cold.
But, wouldn’t it be a bad idea to put the lid on now?
"Hey, what's that smell? Why does it smell so good?"
Suddenly, a man's voice was heard outside, and Zhao's mother immediately smiled: "Silly boss, go open the door for your dad, your dad is back."
"ah?"
Zhao Suchun smiled when she heard that. She had felt distressed for a long time when she saw her younger brother and sister's expressions of wanting to eat but not daring to eat. Knowing that Zhao Yuchu was back, she immediately went outside to greet him.
"Dad, you're back."
Zhao Yuchu saw Zhao Suchun come out, but he didn't care. He smiled and asked, "What delicious food did you make at home today? Why does it smell so good?"
"Dad, Su Mian's partner came home and brought some chicken. Look, he's waiting for you to come back and eat it."
Zhao Suchun explained with a smile. Zhao Yuchu was stunned when he heard it, then he smiled and walked into the house.
"Hello, uncle."
Knowing that Zhao Yuchu had returned, Nan Yi had already been waiting at the door. When he saw him enter the house, he immediately greeted him.
"well."
Zhao Yuchu nodded and laughed at Nan Yi: "Haha, I just separated from your uncle. I didn't expect to see you as soon as I got home."
"Ah, really?"
Nan Yi was also a little surprised, thinking in his heart: "Could he be discussing his marriage with Zhao Sumian?"
"Dad, you're finally back."
Seeing Zhao Yuchu enter the house, Zhao's mother hurriedly stood up, and the other children also stood in a row obediently, which made Nan Yi stunned.
"This father-in-law is very majestic at home, isn't he?"
"Everyone sit down, everyone sit down, don't stand, Nan Yi, sit down quickly."
Zhao Yuchu took off his coat, and Zhao Suchun immediately walked over to take it and hung it on the wall.
"Okay, uncle." Nan Yi sat on the chair obediently.
Zhao Yuchu smiled and said, "You haven't eaten yet?"
"I just had some food with Nan Yi's uncle, so I won't eat anymore. You guys can eat first."
"That won't do. I smell alcohol on you. Have you been drinking?"
Unexpectedly, Zhao Yuchu's mother, who knew him best, immediately said, "You don't like to eat when you drink. Come on, let's eat together. It's a good opportunity for us to taste Nan Yi's cooking skills."
"Haha, okay, let's eat together."
Zhao Yuchu looked at his mother and laughed, "Boss, go make some more food and stew some rice."
"Dad, I've prepared everything and am just waiting for you to come back. I'll just bring it over."
Unexpectedly, Zhao Suchun walked outside as she spoke, while Zhao Sumian stood beside Nan Yi without moving. She rarely did housework.
But Zhao Subu was old, and it was she who helped Zhao Suchun with all the work, so she immediately followed him out: "Two and a half pieces, wait for me, I'll carry them with you."
Hearing such a name, Nan Yi frowned inwardly. He didn't understand why Zhao Suchun had so many names in the Zhao family?
Zhao Sumian calls him Shachun, Zhao's mother calls him Shalaoda, and the third brother Zhao Sub calls him Liangjieban. How confusing!
Zhao Yuchu was quite a sharp person. Although Nan Yi didn't show it, he could still see the confusion in Nan Yi's eyes. He smiled and said, "Haha, Nan Yi, don't be surprised. The names between brothers and sisters are just a mess. I was busy, so I didn't really care."
"By the time I wanted to take charge, one person got used to calling, and the other got used to hearing."
"It's okay, it's okay."
Nan Yi smiled awkwardly. Soon, Zhao Suchun and Zhao Subu brought the prepared food to the table and it was time to eat.
"Nan Yi, you haven't eaten either, right?"
After Zhao Yuchu sat down at the table, he looked at the steaming chicken stewed with mushrooms in the lunch box and said, "It looks so hot, it must have just been served from the pot. You brought it to me. How thoughtful of you!"
"Uncle, it's all as I should, as I should."
With Zhao Yuchu around, Nan Yi felt a little restrained for some reason.
"stand up."
Suddenly, Zhao Sumian shouted. Nan Yi didn't understand what it meant, but he stood up instantly, as if it was an instinctive reaction of his body.
"No, Nan Yi, you don't need to stand up." Unexpectedly, Zhao Yuchu immediately pulled his sleeve and asked him to sit down.
But Nan Yi looked left and right and found that except for Zhao's mother, all the children of the Zhao family, big and small, stood up. What was going on?
"Okay, let's eat."
Unexpectedly, after Zhao Yuchu said something very formally, the brothers and sisters of the Zhao family sat down and started to eat.
"There's actually a ritual for eating?"
Nan Yi understood very well that this was what the Zhao family should do during their daily meals. There were so many rules!
"Come, let's eat and try Nan Yi's cooking. He's the head chef of the No. 1 canteen at the steel mill, specializing in preparing dishes for entertaining guests."
Zhao Yuchu smiled and asked his children to taste Nan Yi's cooking skills, and also praised Nan Yi.
"Uncle, you're too polite. My cooking skills are far inferior to Dong Ge's."
Nan Yi said modestly.
"Then let's study hard and work hard to surpass each other. I believe in you."
Zhao Sumian took the opportunity to say something that was consistent with her personality. Nan Yi was stunned for a moment and shook his head with a wry smile. It was not so easy to surpass Jia Dongsheng's craftsmanship.
However, he also knew that Zhao Sumian didn't understand this matter, so he didn't say much, but started eating. What's more, the shredded potatoes were quite fragrant!
"Yeah, the chicken smells so good."
"Mm, it's delicious. My second brother-in-law's cooking skills are really good."
"It's really delicious, brother-in-law, can you teach me your cooking skills? I'll learn from you and make it for them later."
Zhao Suchun took a bite of the mushrooms in the chicken stewed with mushrooms. It was very fragrant and much more delicious than what she made. She thought about learning from Nan Yi.
