Chapter 46: The Whole Package
As soon as Fan Xiuying left.
Jiang Laoshi and Jiang Lei are back.
They are off duty this afternoon.
Jiang Laoshi is in the morning class.
Jiang Lei learned to drive with his father and they went to get off work together.
Jiang Xiaoxiao cooked lunch.
She had already mastered her craft.
After all, I lived in the countryside for so many years in my previous life, and I learned everything I should learn.
Although she later went to work in the county hospital in the county town.
However, people in that era had to cook for themselves after they got married and started a family.
It’s not like in the future when the ground will be covered with restaurant takeout or something.
I fried some spicy and sour potato shreds, added a cold cucumber salad, and a dish of mapo tofu.
It’s a modified version of Mapo Tofu, but they don’t have meat filling.
Fortunately, my mother knows how to make bean paste, so there is no shortage of it at home.
A pot of rice.
His parents' food allowance still includes ten kilograms of rice per month.
Just this afternoon, she brought in two kilograms of rice.
Jiang Lei rushed into the kitchen after smelling the fragrance.
"Mom, am I starving? Oh my God, the sun is rising from the west, isn't it? Dad, come and have a look, our Xiaoxiao is actually cooking in the kitchen!"
Jiang Xiaoxiao stuffed a peach into his mouth.
“Eat quickly!”
Jiang Xiaoxiao happily watched as his elder brother finished a peach in just a few bites.
Jiang Laoshi poked his head in.
My daughter, who has never been in the kitchen before, actually cooked in the kitchen.
"You kid! Why do you need to cook? You've never cooked before, and you'll burn yourself. Get out! Get out! Dad should come. Where is your mom? How could she let you stay home alone? What if the kitchen catches fire? It's so dangerous."
Jiang Laoshi was still haunted by the last time his daughter set the pot on fire.
I just can't forget it.
Jiang Lei watched eagerly as his sister stuffed the last peach into Jiang Laoshi’s hand.
Looks resentful.
It’s delicious!
It’s so delicious.
"Dad, you are too busy cooking, so I'd better help you eat this peach."
Just reach out and take it.
Jiang Xiaoxiao slapped him on the paw.
Grinning in pain.
"You, you are still my sister? This is murdering your brother."
Jiang Xiaoxiao glanced at him and said, "This is Dad's. There is only one. One for each of us. Don't try to take advantage of me."
Jiang Lei touched his head and said, "Who sent these? Why only two? How can this be enough to eat?"
"What are you talking about? Who can give you food by the basket? Can they give you two baskets of food? In this day and age. What a favor!" Jiang Laoshi was dissatisfied with his son's ignorance.
Jiang Lei smiled bitterly and touched his head, "I was just saying it. I was wrong, Dad, please don't stare at me, I'm scared. I can go serve the food!"
Obediently go into the kitchen and serve the meal.
Three dishes and one soup, a tomato and egg soup.
When Fan Xiuying walked in, she saw a table full of ready-made food.
"Oh, Lao Jiang, your cooking skills are really good today. I can smell the delicious food before I even enter the door. Thanks to you guys coming back early today, the meal is ready. Otherwise, when I come back, it will take me an hour just to cook, and you will be starving."
Jiang Laoshi glanced at his wife.
"I didn't make this meal. Guess who made it?"
Why does my wife look so fair and tender today?
It seems like there are fewer wrinkles on my face.
Especially the one with tender and smooth skin.
"If it wasn't you who made it, then it must have been Jiang Lei who made it. Xiao Xiao can't cook, and the problem is that Jiang Lei's cooking skills aren't that good either. These three dishes and one soup look pretty good."
Fan Xiuying looked at Jiang Xiaoxiao and Jiang Lei's faces.
The son and daughter smiled at her mysteriously, but they refused to say who did it.
"Mom, this is made by your daughter Jiang Xiaoxiao. You should try her cooking. I'm not afraid of anything else, but I'm afraid she will beat the salt seller to death."
Jiang Lei nimbly dodged Jiang Xiaoxiao's chestnut.
"Hey, Xiaoxiao, why are you cooking? Can't you just wait for mom to come back? What if you get burned?"
There were three black lines on Jiang Xiaoxiao's forehead.
Her mother and her father actually speak in the same tone and say the same things.
Is she really that untrustworthy?
Too!
Her previous cooking experience really made it impossible for others to believe her.
"Mom, come eat and try my cooking. Who knows, there might be a surprise today."
Jiang Xiaoxiao pushed Fan Xiuying to sit down.
Sure enough, she found that after eating the peach.
There have been obvious changes in my mother.
After years of hard work, Fan Xiuying actually looks a little haggard.
A man who is almost fifty looks like a man in his sixties.
But today there has been a big change. No, both in terms of skin color and overall feeling, I suddenly look younger, at least several years younger.
Now I look young.
It seems that peaches have a great effect.
Other aspects have not yet emerged.
But for now, this is already very surprising.
Fan Xiuying picked up the bowl.
Look at the dishes and wonder which one is the safest to eat.
She was still a little worried about her daughter.
The result was that three people holding three pairs of chopsticks looked at each other in bewilderment, not knowing what to eat with the three dishes and one soup.
You look at me! I look at you.
Both are waiting for the other to be the guinea pig.
Jiang Xiaoxiao's face darkened.
He picked up a piece of shredded potatoes with chopsticks angrily.
Chew hard.
Fan Xiuying was embarrassed.
I quickly picked up a piece of shredded potatoes with my chopsticks.
"Xiaoxiao, this is your first time cooking. It's rare to be able to cook like this. It must be delicious. Don't worry, your dad will buy all the food today. I guarantee there won't be any left."
Jiang Laoshi was about to protest, why did he have to pay for everything?
He has a bad stomach, so Jiang Lei should have taken care of it.
What does your son do? Isn’t he supposed to take the blame?
My wife stepped hard on me under the table.
Jiang just shut up.
Whatever my wife says is what it is.
Jiang Laoshi also obediently picked up the shredded potatoes and put them into his bowl.
"Hey, I'll take care of it. I said I'll take care of it."
Take a bite.
His eyes lit up.
Hey, this tastes really good.
There is no strange taste, and the spicy and sour potato shreds are quite delicious.
Fan Xiuying also picked up a piece of shredded potatoes with chopsticks.
Jiang Lei hesitated there, wondering what to do.
He observed his parents' expressions for a long time, but couldn't see that they were uncomfortable.
It seems that the salt seller was not killed.
Can I try it myself?
He didn't dare try other dishes for fear of being the guinea pig.
Then I also added shredded potatoes.
Then……
Then three pairs of chopsticks began to fly rapidly on the plate.
Especially the Mapo Tofu, which tastes amazing, smooth, tender, fresh, fragrant and spicy.
Although there is no meat, it tastes really delicious, especially when eaten with rice.
The big pot of steamed rice was quickly eaten up, and the dishes on the table were eaten up cleanly, not to mention the vegetables, even the soup was gone.
Jiang Laoshi looked at the rice in his bowl.
Because he was slow to pick up his chopsticks, all the dishes were gone and he could only eat his dry white rice.
He looked resentfully at his daughter-in-law, son and daughter who were already full and satisfied.
What happened to the promise that he would pay for everything? What happened to the promise that he would pay for everything?
