Gu Lanting's face suddenly turned much uglier, as if she had done something unforgivable.

"Sister, how could you do this!"

"What about me?"

"You shouldn't use your brother-in-law's money to buy things for our family. It's not appropriate. How can I face my brother-in-law?"

Gu Qinghuan smiled secretly in his heart, this silly brother is quite principled and looks very serious.

"Wouldn't he also want to live in this house? I would provide the house and he would pay for the renovation. Isn't that reasonable?

Marry a man, marry him, and he'll provide you with clothes and food. So, do you want me to support him?" Gu Qinghuan deliberately made up a story.

Gu Lanting was led astray by her, and after thinking about it, he always felt that what his sister said was reasonable, but also unreasonable.

"But...but..." He always felt that spending so much money on his brother-in-law seemed inferior to him, and he was worried that his sister would be wronged in the future.

"Don't worry, this money was given to me by your brother-in-law. I didn't ask him for anything. You don't have to feel burdened.

Besides, do you think your sister, such a beautiful lady, is not worth a few thousand dollars?" Gu Qinghuan said deliberately.

Before Gu Lanting could say anything, Xu Huaian spoke first: "Sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop. I just happened to pass by the toilet.

Let me interject, Lanting, don't think too much. Your sister is the head of our family and we listen to her in everything. Even if she sells me, I have to count the money for her.

I would be willing to lose everything I have to marry her, let alone a few thousand dollars.

You see, I'm such a psychopath with two children, but your sister is willing to marry me and take care of the children so attentively. This is simply the result of my lifetime of good deeds.

How about she spend some money?

I am happy, she is happy, so you should not be unhappy. "

He heard the conceited words just now, and Gu Qinghuan was so embarrassed that she quickly dug out of the three-bedroom, one-living room apartment.

Unexpectedly, this person is even more exaggerated and starts to say sarcastic words whenever he gets the chance.

I don’t want to listen. I don’t want to listen. The monks are chanting.

Gu Lanting was choked by the sudden dog food.

Okay, you guys are welcome to do that, but can you please not say that to me? I'm still a kid!

Don't think he can't see that his sister and brother-in-law are currently just living together, and there is no question of them loving each other.

At most, it was the situation where the brother-in-law was pursuing the sister unilaterally and the sister pretended not to know.

Whatever, he doesn't care. As long as they are happy, they won't be blamed.

After dinner, Gu Qinghuan accompanied them for a while.

Needless to say, Gu Qinghuan has good taste. The Western-style building matches the curtains she chose, which elevates the whole style and gives it an inexplicable sense of luxury.

When it was almost time for lunch, Gu Qinghuan went home to cook.

Dabao's fish was definitely not enough for everyone, so she took out a rabbit that Xu Huai'an had slaughtered and prepared from the space.

Use this rabbit to make a delicious and spicy double pepper rabbit dish.

Buy some sauerkraut and pair it with grass carp to make sauerkraut fish.

There are frozen spare ribs in the refrigerator of the villa. I thaw them and make spare ribs, beans and vermicelli stew, which is a typical Northeastern dish.

I haven’t cooked Northeastern cuisine since I came to Beijing, so this is a good opportunity for Lanting and Ruxue to try some authentic Northeastern cuisine.

These three solid main dishes are enough to eat, and you can also stir-fry some vegetables and make a soup to complete the meal.

They carried the big bag home, and Ming Ruxue also brought two dogs to help.

Gu Qinghuan cleaned the fish, Ming Ruxue helped cut the side dishes, Dabao and Beibei washed and rinsed, and soon they were ready to cook.

The first dish is the pickled fish that Dabao has been craving for.

It’s still the same old routine. The fish fillets are separated from the bones and marinated with pepper, salt and starch.

Heat oil in a pan, sauté ginger and garlic, then add the chopped sauerkraut and start stir-frying. If you like it spicy, you can add some red pepper to garnish, and finally add boiling water.

First, cook the side dishes and fish bones, while Gu Qinghuan prepares tender tofu, bean sprouts, and bamboo shoots as the base.

After the side dishes and fish bones are cooked, season the pot and then pick them up. Finally, put the fish fillets into the pot, cut them into pieces, blanch them and remove them from the pot.

The bowl is filled with fish fillets, which smell so sour and refreshing that it makes your mouth water, and the bottom of the soup is golden.

Ming Ruxue sipped her saliva while sneezing.

Take care of the pure joy and ruin the happiness.

"Would you like to taste it?"

"No!" Ming Ruxue shook her head firmly. She still remembered that Gu Lanting once said she was like a pig.

"Haha, Lanting was just joking with you, take a bite, it's okay." Gu Qinghuan laughed, and someone's saliva was almost flowing out of the basin.

Dabao stepped forward with understanding: "Auntie Ruxue, can you help Beibei and me pick up some? I want to taste it!"

Dabao’s inner thoughts: Oh, I’m so tired. This family will have to break up without me!

Ming Ruxue's eyes were visibly bright. She and Dabao went to taste the food, right?

"Okay, I'll help right away."

As she spoke, Ming Ruxue found a small bowl and put a few boneless fish fillets, some tofu and some vegetables in it.

One large and two small dishes were taken out for dinner.

Gu Qinghuan continued to prepare other dishes.

While doing this, I heard screams coming from outside.

"Well, how can it be so delicious, my dear? I envy you so much because you can eat the delicious food made by Sister Huanhuan every day."

"It's delicious, right? Everything my mom cooks is delicious, but my favorite is still this pickled fish." Dabao recommended it boastfully.

Beibei was chewing something in her mouth and had no time to open her mouth.

"Hmm, the tofu is so delicious... the soup is delicious too!"

"Aunt Ruxue, have you finished eating..." Dabao and Beibei looked at her with resentment.

"Oh, I'm sorry, sorry..."

Dabao shook his head, thinking: Since you are so pitiful that you even lick the bowl, I will let you go.

He completely forgot that one night he had done the same thing, licking the lunch box of a bowl of porridge clean.

Pork ribs, beans and vermicelli stew is simple, just pour it in with a click.

Blanch the ribs and set aside. Stir-fry the rock sugar until it melts and turns into caramel color. Then stir-fry the ribs until slightly yellow.

Add onion, ginger, garlic, chili, star anise, cinnamon, soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, and cooking wine, then add hot water to cover the ribs, and finally add soybean paste and start cooking.

After cooking for a while, you can add beans, potatoes and vermicelli and cook for about 20 minutes until the soup is thick, then you can remove from the pot.

A big basin full of them, it’s so delicious just by looking at it.

Ming Ruxue was stunned: "Sister, such a big bowl? Can you finish it?"

It just so happened that Xu Huaian brought Gu Lanting back from outside.

Gu Lantingtian seemed to like yelling at her.

"Eat less later, or you might not be able to finish it!"

Ming Ruxue took a long time to react before she realized that this meant she ate too much.

"I don't want to eat less. I have to eat more. I didn't eat what you made. This was made by my sister. What right do you have to point fingers? Go away!"

Gu Qinghuan let the two bickering enemies go and started to make the last dish.

Double pepper rabbit is a typical Jianghu dish. Gu Qinghuan often made it when he was shooting videos in his previous life because it looks good, is easy to eat, and can be prepared quickly. Its main feature is its color, aroma and taste.

It is a perfect match when served on a large Northeastern red enamel plate.

Heat oil for the marinated rabbit cubes to set, add the fermented black beans and pickled peppers, stir-fry until fragrant, then add the red and green pepper segments, plenty of shredded ginger, and finally various seasonings, stir-fry evenly, and serve while hot.

A spicy and delicious double pepper rabbit is ready.

Xu Huaian took the initiative to wash the dishes and set the table.

Soon Gu Lanting and Ming Ruxue became tactically reconciled, because today's meal was so delicious that they had no time to argue.

"Well, every dish is delicious, with different flavors and characteristics from different regions. How do you make them, sister? It's amazing!"

Ming Ruxue's flattery is always touching and makes Gu Qinghuan very happy as a chef.

Gu Lanting and Xu Huai'an will always say: delicious.

But when it comes to cooking, I'm just good at it.

"You will learn it if you learn more, watch more and do more. It's simple and not difficult." Gu Qinghuan took a bite of the double pepper diced rabbit. Hmm, it was spicy and tasty.

"Sister, I must learn all your skills! Otherwise, what should I do when you leave?" Ming Ruxue's cheeks were puffed up like a hamster, and it was a relief that she could speak clearly.

Gu Lanting looked at her with disdain, and helplessly took out the handkerchief from his arms and handed it to her: "You'd better wipe your face first! How can someone eat so sloppily? Go eat your face!"

Beibei, whose face was covered with rice grains, was innocently caught in the crossfire and looked at his uncle with a confused look on his face: Can we still play happily?

Gu Qinghuan did not go out of his way to praise Dabao for the fish he bought for the family at the table today.

On the one hand, this will make Beibei uncomfortable.

More importantly, she does not want to encourage such behavior, fearing that they will simply give up their own needs to cater to others.

Although children are not prevented from contributing to the family, they are not encouraged either.

Why? Because she was worried that if she encouraged such behavior, the two children would sacrifice their own happiness to please others, and that was not what she wanted to see.

If you develop a people-pleasing personality as a child, you will find it difficult to get rid of this label throughout your life and will always be bullied as a nice person.

Of course, what happened today doesn't count as sacrificing myself to please others.

Today, Dabao's choice is based on his own happiness. It is his own subjective choice, which is in line with his own values, rather than sacrificing himself for the praise of his parents.

Raising a child is like crossing a river by feeling the stones. She doesn't know what is the right thing to do, so she just follows her heart.
