Chapter 32 Eat it all, not a drop left
Jiang Rou noticed that Zhou Xiaochuan and Zhou Xiaohua were actually very well-educated.
Even though the food was already on the table, no one grabbed it directly, and no one ate it first because they were hungry.
Every time they ate, the two children would start eating only after Zhou Chongshan said "Let's eat".
He is so obedient and sensible.
Jiang Rou was very pleased.
Just like last time, she gave the braised pork belly to Zhou Xiaochuan, Zhou Xiaohua, and Zhou Chongshan.
"Try it now. I made this braised pork belly myself. It must be delicious!"
Jiang Rou has absolute confidence in her cooking skills.
Without waiting for others to praise her, she affirms herself first.
Zhou Xiaohua didn't know how to use chopsticks yet, so she just grabbed the small bowl and ate. The shiny pork belly was stuffed into her mouth in a hurry.
He puffed up his cheeks and ate with big mouthfuls.
It's as if he's afraid of being robbed.
After eating this, her eyes widened and then curved in happiness.
The little girl who can't speak has a lively and vivid expression on her face.
He looked at Jiang Rou with bright eyes.
The only thing missing was the word "delicious" written in big letters on her little face.
Zhou Chongshan picked up the pork belly and took a bite.
This taste...
The old man raised his eyebrows in disbelief.
In the military camp cafeteria, braised pork belly is prepared once a month.
The meat is usually not stewed or seasoned. In fact, it is just stir-fried with soy sauce. It tastes purely like pork and sometimes even has a fishy smell.
However, the braised pork belly made by Jiang Rou is not only tasty and rich in flavor, but also soft and glutinous in texture. The fat is rich but not greasy, and the lean meat is lean but not dry.
Even the pork skin is chewy and tender.
This is so delicious!
Zhou Chongshan had to admit that he had underestimated Jiang Rou again.
Along with the delicious taste on the tip of his tongue, a sense of satisfaction spread in his chest.
After all...she is his daughter-in-law!
Jiang Rou did not pick up her chopsticks immediately, but quietly observed the reactions of several people.
She saw the look of surprise and shock on Zhou Chongshan's face.
She raised her red lips high and smiled charmingly.
She didn't say anything, but just stared at Zhou Chongshan with her bright eyes, waiting for the old man to speak first.
Zhou Chongshan swallowed a mouthful of pork belly and spoke with the delicious taste lingering in his cheeks.
"You are a great cook. This pork belly is the best I have ever eaten."
As soon as I heard what Zhou Chongshan said.
Zhou Xiaohua was the first to nod, and the little tuft of hair on her head swayed happily.
Silently saying: Mmmmm! Delicious, delicious, delicious! The best! (′`)
Out of three people, two said it was delicious.
Jiang Rou's eyes turned and then she looked at Zhou Xiaochuan.
Zhou Xiaochuan hasn't picked up his chopsticks yet.
In front of him was a plate of white rice with distinct grains, and on top of it was a piece of shiny braised pork belly.
This one looks delicious.
Not to mention the rich aroma of the braised pork belly, which went straight into his nostrils.
Gulu Gulu——
There was a hungry sound coming from my little stomach.
It was because I was really hungry, and also because of the looks from the people around me.
Zhou Xiaochuan frowned slightly, with an expression that seemed reluctant, and finally picked up the piece of braised pork belly.
all of a sudden.
He quickly stuffed it into his mouth.
The little wolf's plan was to put it in his mouth, take a few bites, and then swallow it whole.
Even if it tastes good, as long as he eats it fast enough, he won’t be able to taste the specific flavor and won’t show an expression of enjoyment.
He would never give Jiang Rou the chance to be complacent.
but.
As soon as the soft and chewy pork belly enters your mouth, the tempting taste fills your taste buds.
After taking a few bites, the rich aroma of the gravy slid into the throat along with the saliva.
He... just couldn't bear to swallow it.
Instead, eat it bite by bite until you can't stop!
The original expression on Zhou Xiaochuan's face could no longer be maintained, and in his dark eyes, little stars were flickering.
The obsession was out of control and was about to overflow, but he suppressed it back with force.
He pursed his lips and said nothing.
Even when Jiang Rou asked him "Is it delicious?", he just shook his head.
This was the wolf cub's last stand.
Jiang Rou kept smiling, as if she could see through what Zhou Xiaochuan was thinking.
She didn't ask anything.
Instead, after seeing Zhou Xiaochuan pick up his chopsticks, he picked up another piece of braised pork belly and put it in his bowl.
"Xiaochuan, if it tastes good, eat more."
Jiang Rou laughed happily, picked up her chopsticks and started eating her meal.
As a food blogger, the happiest thing is that people like the food I cook.
Even if Zhou Xiaochuan didn't say a word, Jiang Rou could tell that she loved this boy so much!
Jiang Rou was eating happily.
Zhou Xiaochuan is still stuck in the tangle.
He didn't say anything, so why is she so happy?
She had already given him a piece of braised pork belly, why did she take another piece?
Everything Jiang Rou did... seemed like a very normal thing.
But it is completely different from what Zhou Xiaochuan had experienced.
Zhou Xiaochuan blinked helplessly, looked at the new piece of braised pork belly, and swallowed hard.
then.
eat!
There is no way, it is so fragrant and delicious.
…
The four of us were all very satisfied with this dinner.
Jiang Rou did not save the pork belly, but let everyone eat as much as they could.
The Zhou family has one adult and two children, and they all have big appetites.
Even the youngest girl, Zhou Xiaohua, can eat two steamed buns and a whole steamed bun in one breath.
Now that I have delicious meals, I eat even more voraciously and can’t stop eating.
All the braised pork belly made by Jiang Rou was eaten up.
The last bit of gravy was mixed with the rice, not a drop left.
After eating too much greasy fatty meat, you can still drink a sip of light kelp and egg soup, it is simply perfect!
Finished the meal.
Jiang Rou stood up to tidy up the dishes.
However, her arm was held down by Zhou Chongshan who was standing beside her.
"You've been busy all day. Thank you for your hard work. I'll wash the dishes."
Talking.
Zhou Chongshan had already started to put away the empty bowls, chopsticks and plates.
Jiang Rou was stunned.
This old man can do housework?
She thought of Zhou Chongshan's military background, and even the quilts and clothes at home were stacked like tofu blocks. He must have been trained in the army for trivial tasks such as washing dishes.
In fact, the key point is not whether Zhou Chongshan can do it, but whether he is willing to do it.
You know, these rough guys are usually chauvinists.
Although he can barely recognize a single word, he insists on being a gentleman and stays away from kitchen gowns. He won't even pick up his chopsticks if they fall on the ground.
Jiang Rou didn't say anything at first, but just observed Zhou Chongshan silently.
She saw that Zhou Chongshan's movements were quick and decisive, very smooth, and he looked very calm, without any reluctance on the part of a grown man doing housework.
This old man is really caring!
Jiang Rou felt warm in her heart.
