Chapter 122 You Can Cook
"But my parents' matter has caused great damage to grandma. She has been crying secretly all these years. Uncle, you should come up with a different excuse."
Gu Yixiao couldn't help but sigh, wondering how things would turn out like this.
"Okay, then I'll change to something else. Since you're so attentive, then I'll trouble you to wash all the vegetables that Xiaochu likes to eat. Your aunt is going to cook a big meal tonight."
Gu Lei Ting now treats Gu Yixiao as his future son-in-law and orders him around.
He has no plans to go to the overseas company right now. His assistants and secretaries are busy there, so it won't be a big problem if he doesn't go back in the short term.
But now, his first priority is to bring Gu Yixiao and Xu Ruchu together.
Xu Ruochu looked at Gu Yixiao busying around and asked in disbelief, "Dad, it seems like my cousin has never even been to the kitchen. Is it really okay for him to wash vegetables like this?"
After all, Gu Yixiao was raised by servants at home.
Basically, I haven't suffered any hardship.
"Men always have to learn, otherwise how can they take good care of you."
Gu Lei Ting acted as if his daughter deserved the best.
"I don't care who he is. Now that he wants to be with you, he has to learn basic life skills. It's just washing vegetables, what's so difficult about that?"
"When your mother is busy, I usually help her."
Although Jiang Limei doesn't cook much at home, her aunt is in charge of it.
But occasionally his wife would cook for him herself, which was a small ritual at home.
"That's true. Ziyang always eats a lot of the braised pork you and mom make."
"Haha, that child just loves to eat meat, but unfortunately, he easily gains weight. As a result, your mother doesn't dare to cook it casually now, otherwise the child would have turned into a little fat boy."
Gu Ziyang walked over angrily.
"Dad, I'm not fat, I'm strong!"
Little Gu Ziyang is a good eater. Jiang Limei gave him a spoon since he was two years old.
He used only a spoon and one hand to stuff rice into his mouth frantically.
And eat quickly.
After eating, he even licked the bowl clean.
At that time, everyone said that Gu Ziyang would definitely be in good health in the future. After all, according to the elders, as long as the child could eat, there would be absolutely no problem.
Gu Ziyang, on the other hand, used a spoon that was almost replaced by chopsticks, and ate with relish.
Sometimes Xu Ruochu felt that watching Gu Ziyang eat was like watching a food show.
"We are praising you. You enjoy your food so much. Seeing you eat makes us want to have another bowl unconsciously." She said quickly.
Gu Ziyang raised his head and looked at Xu Ruochu proudly: "Of course, the food is so delicious!"
"Dad, I want to eat braised pork." The little guy turned to look at Gu Lei Ting again.
"Let Auntie do it for you."
"No, I want what you and mom make. Yours is delicious. Auntie's cooking is good, but it doesn't have the unique flavor of yours."
Gu Ziyang was making a fuss here, insisting that his father make it for him.
Gu Lei Ting was also helpless. He knew that once his son started to act unruly, it would be no joke.
He sighed and said, "Today we have to rely on your eldest cousin's cooking skills."
"Is what he cooked edible?" Gu Ziyang looked embarrassed.
Then he trotted to the snack room and took out several large bags of snacks such as potato chips and chicken legs.
Then he handed some to Xu Ruochu.
"Sister, eat a little first, otherwise I'm afraid of food poisoning."
Xu Ruochu burst out laughing and rubbed his little head.
"Have you forgotten that Mom is also in the kitchen? She won't let your eldest cousin blow up the kitchen."
"Oh, my mother is in there. I feel much more relieved."
However, Gu Ziyang was still tearing open a bag of potato chips and started eating them with a crunching sound.
Soon, when Jiang Limei came out and saw her son, she immediately shouted, "Gu Ziyang! Who allowed you to sneak snacks before dinner?"
"Mom, I'm just so hungry."
"If you interfere with my meal later, I will punish you by not allowing you to eat snacks for three days."
“No!”
Xu Ruochu watched from the side and found his brother particularly interesting.
It turns out that human cubs are the most fun when they are young.
Xu Ruochu went to the kitchen out of curiosity and saw Gu Yixiao busying around.
Noticing that someone was watching at the door, Gu Yixiao turned around.
Then he walked over slowly, looking particularly homely in his apron.
It’s like someone who used to be high and mighty suddenly becomes worldly.
"Are you here to see what delicious food I made?"
"Yeah, curious."
Xu Ruochu looked at Gu Yixiao's dish carefully and knew at a glance that it had been cooked before.
"Your pickled fish smells delicious."
"Of course, when I was studying abroad, I couldn't get used to the food there, so I had to find ways to cook it myself. I would look for recipes, and after studying a lot, I gradually learned how to cook it."
In the past, Gu Yixiao was sent abroad by the old lady to study for a few years.
But later he came back when he needed to inherit the family.
"What else can you do?"
As soon as Xu Ruochu asked, Gu Yixiao fed her the freshly made sweet and sour pork ribs with chopsticks.
"Try it, how does it taste?"
After Xu Ruochu took a bite, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"tasty!"
Originally she just had some expectations, but now she feels that Gu Yixiao's cooking skills are comparable to those of a master chef.
"Compared to you, I'm just a waste. How can you cook so deliciously?" Xu Ruchu couldn't help but say.
Although she often cooked for herself to improve her diet, her cooking skills were not as good as his.
"Oh, I've been watching for a long time, but no one has fed me a single bite of meat."
Jiang Limei took a rag and cleaned up the place briefly.
She rarely cooks alone, except when she meets the needs of the old lady and her son, when she shows off her cooking skills.
But every time Xu Ruchu came home, she would specially cook her daughter's favorite dishes.
If for no other reason, it was just to let Xu Ruochu know that even if she was admitted to university, rarely went home for dinner, and had her own independent life, she still had to feel the family atmosphere.
But one thing will not change, they will always be a family.
"Mom, the food cooked by my cousin is so delicious." Xu Ruochu smiled brightly.
"What about Mom's food?"
“Of course it’s delicious too!”
She didn't think the two could be compared.
Everyone’s cooking skills are different, so even if you make the same dish, it will taste different.
"Okay, let's get ready for dinner." Jiang Limei said.
The dining room is all ready.
Xu Ruochu and the others walked in together.
There are still many people eating today, and everyone continues to sit close to each other.
“Delicious, this is delicious too!”
Gu Ziyang pointed at the dishes and muttered secretly.
After hearing that it was time to start eating, he began to check whether Lei Ting and Jiang Limei had started to eat. When they started to eat, he immediately picked up the stock he had been eyeing for a long time.
The dining etiquette at home was specially taught by my parents.
