Before she finished speaking, Long Xi couldn't help but hug Luo Jiaojiao tightly. She understood everything and knew why Jiaojiao didn't tell them.
Long Xi gently patted Luo Jiaojiao's back and comforted her, "Good child, don't say that. We all understand your difficulties. You just don't want us to be implicated by compromising with the Luo family and giving them benefits. Knowing all this, we feel even more sorry for you."
"Okay, dear Jiaojiao, stop crying. You should feel happy! Look, I specially bought your favorite dishes. I will cook them for you later." Leng Zeyu gently stroked Luo Jiaojiao's hair and comforted her softly.
In the Leng family, there has always been a tradition that men are responsible for cooking.
During festivals, they would even let the servants at home take a holiday to go home for family reunions, and at these times, Leng Zeyu would personally cook to show off his cooking skills.
Since Luo Jiahui was eager to get closer to the Leng family, he would arrange for Luo Jiaojiao to go to the Leng family to spend every holiday.
If the second brother Luo Minghao was also at home, then Luo Jiaojiao would greet Grandpa Leng and others in advance and take Luo Minghao with her.
In fact, Luo Jiahui's family really hopes that they can come to visit more often. If he didn't still have a little self-awareness, I'm afraid even the eldest brother would follow them.
However, every time there is a holiday, Luo Jiahui chooses to dine out and enjoy a sumptuous meal.
Luo Jiaojiao also knew about these situations, because when they returned home, Luo Jiahui would always enthusiastically tell them where they had been and what delicious food they had tasted.
Despite this, Luo Jiaojiao and her second brother Luo Minghao were equally comfortable and contented with their lives in the Leng family, and did not envy Luo Jiahui and his friends' gourmet food trips at all.
After all, the Leng family’s dishes are quite delicious and leave people with a lasting aftertaste.
"Uncle Leng's cooking skills are excellent, and every dish he makes is delicious. And Brother Leng's cooking skills are equally superb, and he is also good at cooking a variety of delicacies. The bacon and cured meat I sent to you before were made by him!"
Luo Jiaojiao excitedly told everyone: "We once encountered a ferocious wild boar in the mountains, but fortunately we managed to capture it and sold it to the canteen. As for the rest, in addition to being used to entertain guests, all of it was carefully prepared into mouth-watering delicacies!"
Then, unable to hide her excitement, she continued, "Brother Leng told me that he will have some time to rest after the competition, and then he will take me to the mountains to pick mushrooms!" Luo Jiaojiao looked at them expectantly.
When Leng Zeyu and Long Xi heard that Leng Mohan had such superb cooking skills, they couldn't help but think of the fact that the men in their own family were all proficient in this dish. Their speculation about whether Mohan was their son deepened a little.
Leng Zeyu thought for a moment, then looked at Luo Jiaojiao and asked, "Jiaojiao, who is usually responsible for cooking at home?"
He knew clearly that Luo Jiaojiao knew nothing about cooking and he had never even let her step into the kitchen to help. Even small tasks like serving dishes were left to him and Luo Minghao.
Luo Jiaojiao blushed and lowered her head, shyly explaining, "These dishes were all cooked by Brother Leng himself. I don't know how to cook at all. In fact, I once mentioned that I wanted to learn cooking skills from him, but he didn't seem to be very willing to teach me."
