Zheng Zening stayed to chat with Zhang Shaoyuan, while Fan Hua and Su Wen went to the other side to help Geng Ailing cook.
This was Su Wen's first time to visit Fan Hua's place. Seeing the skirt being made on the sewing machine was the same as the one Fan Hua had designed for her, she couldn't help but walk over to look at it for a while before asking in surprise, "Lihua, is that skirt on the sewing machine made for me?"
"Well, it's almost done. I'll give it to you after I iron the edges!"
"I was worried that the real thing wouldn't be as pretty as the drawing, but I didn't expect it to be so beautiful! I can't help but urge you to finish it quickly!"
"Hahaha, you're really impatient. Don't worry, it will be done quickly. I'll get it done for you after dinner and you can wear it this afternoon!"
After some chatting and laughing, the two of them started to help in the kitchen.
Although Geng Ailing is a good cook, her dishes are relatively traditional and she is reluctant to use oil. After all, she has always lived in the countryside and has not seen much of the world.
She fried some potatoes, stewed some vegetables, and made a plate of cold sour and spicy bamboo shoots, which was Fan Hua's favorite. She wanted to make stir-fried pork with garlic sprouts, but was stopped by Fan Hua.
Fan Hua felt in good physical condition today and didn't feel any nausea, so she decided to show off her cooking skills.
She cut the lean meat into strips and made sweet and sour pork tenderloin. Then she remembered that Geng Ailing said the braised pork was delicious in a state-owned restaurant last time, so she cut the remaining fatty pork belly into pieces and made a dish of crispy and fragrant braised pork. Finally, she mixed various peppers with eggs, garlic sprouts, and minced pork to make a grandma's dish that was super delicious with rice.
Because the pot was occupied by cooking and there was no time to cook rice, Fan Hua took a large aluminum basin and went downstairs to the state-owned restaurant to pack up a pound and a half of rice. She deliberately asked for an extra half pound, thinking that if there was any leftovers, she could make fried rice with eggs in the evening.
Who would have thought that so much rice would be almost finished? As they ate, they kept praising today's dishes for being so delicious, especially the grandma's dish. Everyone was slurping their lips while eating!
The food was so delicious! Fan Hua instantly felt a sense of accomplishment...
Especially after Zheng Zening knew that these dishes were made by Fan Hua, he was so excited as if he had found a treasure. He ate two more bowls of rice than usual and his stomach was about to burst.
He didn't expect that Fan Hua could not only draw and make clothes, but also cook delicious meals. His favorability towards Fan Hua reached its peak!
Fan Hua was also very satisfied with her meal today. She ate a lot of the dish of spicy and sour bamboo shoots made by Geng Ailing.
Zheng Zening, who was sitting next to her, noticed that Fan Hua only ate bamboo shoots and hardly ate any other dishes. He thought that Fan Hua didn't eat much meat because she was worried that there wouldn't be enough vegetables, so he picked up a pair of clean chopsticks and kindly picked up a piece of braised pork for Fan Hua...
"Comrade Fan, you are too thin. You need to eat more meat!"
Su Wen on the side also said: "That's right, you worked so hard to make it, but you didn't even eat a few bites, and we almost finished it, you should eat more!"
After saying that, she also put a piece of sweet and sour pork into Fan Hua's bowl.
Fan Hua knew that she felt nauseous easily after eating meat recently, so she didn't dare to taste the food herself when cooking, and asked Geng Ailing to help her taste the saltiness. Now everyone was looking at her, and she also wanted to know how her food would taste today.
She picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork and put it in her mouth...
It’s sour and sweet, and tastes great. Fan Hua enjoyed eating it very much!
Then she tentatively put the braised pork that Zheng Zening had picked up for her into her mouth and started chewing it, but the result was bad...
