Chapter 26 Conquering Everyone with Cooking Skills



Next, Su Qianqian started to prepare things. For example, the local chicken pot needs to be stewed for at least three hours, slowly stewed on a coal stove. The soup will be very delicious.

Cut and arrange the vegetables, and do everything that needs to be done in advance, so that when you actually cook in the afternoon, it will go quickly.

For lunch, she made something simple since there were many delicious dishes for dinner.

In the afternoon, the platoon leader and Cheng Yuan came to help. Cheng Yuan had worked in the kitchen before, so he had some skills. With his help, the job became a lot easier.

"Cheng Yuan, with your help we can get twice the result with half the effort." Su Qianqian said with a smile.

"It's my honor to help my sister-in-law. This way, I won't feel guilty when I eat later and can eat an extra bowl of rice." He was mainly attracted by Su Qianqian's cooking skills.

The young platoon leader came up and said, "Sister-in-law, we have finished disposing of the garbage here. Is there anything else you need to do?"

"Boil the water and blanch the vegetable."

The three people in the kitchen each did their own job, and it didn't seem chaotic, but rather very orderly.

Cheng Yue would come over to take a look from time to time, and a fire of jealousy inexplicably burned in his chest.

"Battalion Commander, you should go and have a rest. We are here, don't worry." The young platoon leader said quickly when he saw him standing at the door.

“……”I’m worried because you’re here!

By four or five o'clock, people had already arrived one after another, and Cheng Yue sat in the living room chatting with them.

"Wow, there are so many dishes. Do you remember me?"

Su Qianqian thought about it for a moment and then remembered, "Comrade Lin?"

"Wow, you have a good memory. The pickled cucumbers you gave me are so delicious. My husband and children all like them." Lin Xuemei said.

"I'm glad you like it. And, you can take another can with you after dinner."

"How can I do that? I have to pay for this jar." Lin Xuemei didn't think the pickled cucumbers were delicious, but since they were given to her as a gift, she thought she would try them. After eating them, she found that they tasted really good and were especially appetizing. She had been feeling a little uncomfortable in her stomach at that time, but after eating the pickled cucumbers, her stomach felt much better.

My husband and children also felt somewhat comfortable after eating it, but they couldn’t tell exactly where they felt comfortable.

Su Qianqian did not refuse. She wanted to make money in the first place. She gave people food to eat before in order to make money in the future. Now the business has come, right? She doesn't think the business is small now.

Lin Xuemei came out of the kitchen, sat down on the sofa, and said to Cheng Yue with a smile, "Captain Cheng is so lucky to have a wife who is such a great cook. That's better than anything else."

It is said that if you want to capture a man, you have to capture his stomach.

"She will cook a lot of dishes today, you can eat more later." Cheng Yue said with pride.

"Of course, you must eat more. I've been looking forward to it since I knew I was going to your house for dinner." Lin Xuemei likes Su Qianqian very much.

Later, Wu Sufen and her family of three from next door also came.

"Qiangzi, go and play with your brothers and sisters." Wu Sufen said to her child He Qiang.

At first the four children were a little reserved, but since they all came from the countryside, they soon got along well and had a lot of common topics when talking about their previous lives in the countryside.

Lin Xuemei's child was a little older, so she just watched them play and didn't go over directly.

Soon after, another family of three arrived.

"There are so many people here. It seems we are the last ones to arrive." A gentle man wearing glasses said with a smile. He was followed by a young, beautiful and exquisite woman.

"Captain Cheng, how is your injury?" the woman asked.

"The recovery is going well. The doctor said there is still hope that it can return to its previous state."

"That's great."

The woman gently pushed the little girl in front of her and said, "Call me uncle or auntie."

"Hello, uncles and aunts." The little girl called sweetly.

"Captain Cheng, where is your wife? Why can't I see her?" The woman looked around and didn't see any strange faces, so she felt a little strange.

"I'm busy in the kitchen. I'll see you later. Please sit down for a while. I'll go see how the food is going."

Cheng Yue drove his wheelchair to the kitchen to check the situation.

"What's going on?" he asked.

"You can sit down and eat in a moment. How many people?"

"Including the children, there are nine people. Including Cheng Yuan and Zhao Gang, there are eleven people."

"We're both fine, no need to sit." The young platoon leader said quickly.

Cheng Yuan also said, "Yes, no need to sit down, we can just eat the leftovers later."

"That won't work. You guys helped so much. Anyway, the portions I made are large, so there will definitely be extra after packing them out. We'll eat these."

"That's great, sister-in-law, you are worthy of it!" Woo woo woo, he wants to follow his sister-in-law in the future!

It’s a pity that Su Qianqian was entangled with Cheng Yue, not him!

Otherwise, he would be the one who enjoys the feast!

As a result, when he turned around, he met Cheng Yue's ambiguous eyes and was startled immediately, "Battalion, Battalion Commander, is there anything else?" He felt very guilty!

"fine."

Cheng Yue turned his wheelchair silently.

My wife is familiar with everyone except him.

So angry!

About ten minutes later, Su Qianqian asked them to take the dishes out.

"It's time to serve the food. Start with the cold dishes: cold cucumber salad, cold kelp salad, hot and sour chicken feet, braised eggs, and braised dried tofu. Enjoy, everyone." This was made last night and it was already very tasty after one night.

"It's so rich!" Lin Xuemei was overjoyed. "Let's eat, I think it will be delicious."

The presentation is very nice, it doesn't feel like something from the countryside at all, it has a high-end feel.

Cheng Yue was a little confused when he saw this, how could this be better than the state-owned restaurants?

"Chestnut chicken stew, everyone can have a bowl of soup to warm up your stomach first."

As soon as the lid is opened, the aroma fills the air, instantly arousing one's appetite. Everyone had already smelled the aroma when it was stewing, but it was not as strong as it is now.

"If you drink some soup first and then beat the chicken, it will taste different," said Cheng Yuan.

Lin Xuemei was the first to take a sip of the soup and was immediately amazed. "Isn't this so delicious? Fresh but not greasy. The sweetness of the chestnuts and the umami of the chicken soup are combined very well. Come and try it."

After tasting it, everyone praised it and couldn't find any fault with it.

Cheng Yue took a sip of the chicken soup and immediately tasted the unique flavor of Su Qianqian's cooking, as if only the food she cooked had this flavor.

However, he did not have this special taste when eating other cold dishes.

Su Qianqian called the three children into the kitchen, gave each of them a bowl of chicken soup, and said, "Go over there and drink it slowly."

She added Lingquan to the chicken soup but not to other dishes. After all, she didn't know the reason for the increase in Lingquan, so she still needed to be a little more economical.

"Mom, it's delicious!" Xiao San drank all the chicken soup and even wanted to lick the bowl.

"If you like, mom will cook it for you later. Come, each of you has a bowl of rice. These dishes are prepared in advance. You can go to your room and eat."

Even though there are so many guests, we can't let the children go hungry.

Cheng Yuan and the platoon leader also drank the chicken soup and were still not satisfied.

"Stir-fried bacon with garlic sprouts, cabbage with vinegar, and stir-fried pork." Cheng Yuan continued to serve the dishes.

"The pickled fish is here. It has very few bones, so it's okay for children to eat. This is the chili that my sister-in-law pickled specially. If you like spicy food, you can dip it in the chili."

Cheng Yuan placed three small plates of chili peppers on the table.

"There are so many dishes, let your wife come and eat." Lin Xuemei said.

"That's right, there are so many dishes, come and eat quickly, don't rush around." Wu Sufen also said, how much would so many dishes cost.

Cheng Yue went to the kitchen and said, "It's almost done. You guys can go eat too."

"There are two more dishes, it will be ready soon." Su Qianqian said.

"The buns are ready."

The braised pork and steamed buns were served together and received positive reviews, especially from Lin Xuemei, who said, "This is the best braised pork I've ever eaten!"

Another woman couldn't help but ask, "Is it that exaggerated?"

"Why don't you try and find out?"

"It's too greasy. I won't eat it. I care more about my figure."

Lin Xuemei sneered, "Oh, are you mocking me for my poor figure? Then don't eat it. We can't even eat enough of such delicious food ourselves."

"Comrade Lin, that's not what she meant. She's always trying to lose weight. Every time I tell her not to, she won't listen."

"Isn't that what you like, Director Sun?" Lin Xuemei said with a smile.

Sun Ming was a little embarrassed, "Actually, I'm fine."

Su Qianqian carried out the last two dishes, "Boiled shrimps and fried potatoes."

"Qianqian, you are so awesome. You are the person I admire the most now. I even want to live across the street from you. Wu Sufen, how about we switch?" Lin Xuemei now feels that she and Su Qianqian should become the best sisters in the world. This way, she can have delicious food every day, which is so happy for a foodie.

Wu Sufen was stunned. This question was beyond the scope of the question. She didn't know how to answer it and could only ask her husband for help.

"No, that won't work. We're craving this too." He Hai also said with a smile, knowing that everyone was joking.

At this moment, someone was stunned and stared at Su Qianqian, "It's you?!"
