The mother and son exchanged glances for a moment, but Shen Aoshuang didn't know. She respectfully turned to Shen Cui and called her "Auntie", then said, "I'm sorry for disturbing you by visiting me."
Because he hadn't informed his mother yet, Mu Erpang said, "Brother Shen is too polite. I originally invited you to guide my poetry."
Chen Cui followed up the conversation and told him not to be polite.
As we were chatting, the daily task came.
Today's routine is for the headmaster to cook personally.
Shen Cui was used to it, so she said, "You guys do your homework first, I'll go to the kitchen to help, and dinner will be ready soon."
Mu Erpang did not stop her, but just signaled with his eyes - he had finally 'tricked' Shen Aoshuang here, so he should leave a good impression on her, right?
Shen Cui gave him a sidelong glance and told him to leave it alone.
How could she not understand what her fat son meant? But she couldn't decide the system tasks.
Because her starting point was so low, after comparing the two, Shen Cui felt that her current cooking skills were actually quite good.
Besides, Chen Aoshuang’s sense of taste is not as good as that of ordinary people. He would probably think that only half of it is unpalatable at most?
Shen Cui thought so, and went to the kitchen to upgrade the academy and added Shen Aoshuang into the academy system.
In the kitchen, A Yao's work is almost finished, and the kitchen is filled with the aroma of food.
Shen Cui is not necessarily restricted to certain dishes when cooking now, but rather looks at what vegetables Yao buys that day - after all, this is not the period before the exam, so it is not necessary to cook dishes that improve short-term memory. The ingredients she used for cooking were taken out of the system out of thin air and had to correspond to the ingredients available in the academy, so that she didn't have to make up excuses saying that she bought something from outside.
Today, because he knew Chen Aoshuang was coming at the last minute, A Yao went out to add more dishes. There were not many vegetable vendors setting up stalls in the afternoon, and many of the vegetables were not fresh, so in addition to the original ingredients, A Yao only bought a few pieces of tofu and a few ribs, and soaked some dried mushrooms that were already available in the academy.
Chen Cui found a dish called [Sour and Spicy Tofu Soup] in the system's recommended recipes and thought it was perfect for making today.
On the one hand, the ingredients are compatible, and on the other hand, Chen Cui herself is a bit craving for spicy food.
Chili peppers, which are the most common in later generations, are actually considered a high-end condiment at that time. Among the New Year's gifts that Cui Wuniang sent at the beginning of last year, there was a jar of dried chili powder, but A Yao still hasn't been willing to use it.
In early autumn, eating something sour and spicy is perfect as it can both stimulate the appetite and induce sweating.
She had decided what to do and then she started to do it skillfully.
In the classroom, Wei Shu, Mei Ruochu and others came over with Lao Buyu one after another.
The others were all classmates at the prefectural school, so there was no need to introduce them specifically. Mu Erpang only introduced Lao Buyu to Shen Aoshuang.
Shen Aoshuang respectfully called him "Master" and performed the scholar's etiquette.
Lao Buyu's memory was no worse than those other teenagers. He recognized him as the teenager who helped the fainted person in front of the list that day.
Although he ignored Mu Erpang later, but putting aside the details, he just felt that he was a kind-hearted person, so he was very kind to him.
This short period of time before meals is usually the time for everyone to do homework.
So after a few simple words, the classroom fell silent.
Although Mu Erpang was a little sweaty, he thought that Chen Aoshuang was not familiar with the others and he had to accompany her, so he endured the discomfort and let Chen Aoshuang share a desk with him.
Everyone sat down in their seats, and Shen Aoshuang opened his book bag, took out a book and flipped it on the table, and then, like everyone else, kept a distance from the book.
At this distance, he couldn't actually see the words clearly, let alone dip them in ink to write. He was just pretending to be normal.
The only one who knew the truth was Mu Erpang, and Shen Aoshuang knew that he would not expose her.
Mu Erpang did not expose him, he just felt that he was having a hard time, and thought that if Shen Aoshuang was willing to stay longer, he would go and beg his mother to find a way to change a separate classroom for him.
Thinking of this, he turned around and continued to do his homework, but heard Shen Aoshuang say "eh" strangely.
Mu Erpang lowered his voice and asked him what was wrong?
Shen Aoshuang immediately said 'it's okay', "Brother Mu, don't worry about me, homework is more important."
His face looked normal, but in fact his heart was in turmoil - he usually pretended to read in this position when he was outside, and he definitely couldn't see a single word clearly.
But now the characters were actually becoming clearer little by little. Although still blurry, they were indeed much clearer. He could even recognize some characters based on their general shapes!
Chen Aoshuang was still agitated, and she seemed to smell a faint smell of sweat at the tip of her nose.
This smell may come from himself or from Mu Erpang, but he did not hate the smell. Instead, he was surprised that he could actually smell this not-so-strong smell?
Chen Aoshuang's hands trembled unconsciously. She reached out and touched the book, then the tabletop. She could hear the very subtle voices of Wei Shu and Mei Ruochu discussing something.
He even secretly reached out and pinched himself. The pain was much stronger than usual, making sure he was not dreaming!
Just when Shen Aoshuang's heart was in turmoil and she couldn't believe it, Shen Cui and A Yao came out of the kitchen carrying dishes and came to inform them that it was time for dinner.
Upon hearing the noise, everyone came out of the classroom, washed their hands, and went to the main room to eat. Mu Erpang invited Shen Aoshuang to sit next to him.
Shen Aoshuang, who had just said that she was okay with eating anything, suddenly became more eager for the meal after smelling the faint aroma of the food.
At the dinner table, the other people in the academy were looking at the hot and sour tofu soup made by Chen Cui in the middle of the table - the white tofu and plump mushrooms were cut into small pieces, floating black and white on the surface of the soup, and the color of the soup... was as black as ink.
Everyone in the academy was used to it, but Chen Aoshuang couldn't see clearly and didn't know what the dish was, so she didn't make any exaggerated reaction.
Chen Cui also felt a little guilty. She had never done this before, so she didn't know that the vinegar in the system ingredients would turn the soup so black when poured into it.
But it's already done, so we still have to eat. Shen Cui coughed lightly and asked everyone to start eating. She then said to Mu Erpang, "Master Shen is here for the first time, so he may feel restrained. As the host, please take care of him."
This also gave Chen Aoshuang a way out, so that he wouldn't have to suffer by not wanting special care from others at the dinner table.
Mu Erpang agreed, but in the end he couldn't bear it. He thought it would be better to let the newly arrived Shen Aoshuang eat something else first to leave a good impression, and then drink the "ink" made by his mother.
The other dishes on the table were all made by A Yao, including braised grass carp, roast chicken with chestnuts, stewed ribs, and stir-fried seasonal vegetables. Each one was delicious and fragrant.
Shen Aoshuang felt more and more clearly that his sense of smell and taste were sharper than before. Although the changes were not significant, they were enough for him to enjoy.
However, his daily habit was to eat less, so he only ate half a bowl of rice with the dish and then put down his chopsticks.
"Then drink the soup." Shen Cui reached out to help him scoop the soup, then asked Mu Erpang to take it and put it in front of Shen Aoshuang. She felt more and more guilty when she said this.
But now that he had already added Chen Aoshuang into the academy system, he should have noticed the changes in himself, and it would be bad to remove him again - that kind of feeling of worry and fear was too cruel for a disabled person.
The other people in the academy had different ideas from hers. They just thought that since Shen Aoshuang had just come as a guest, she had to drink "ink", which was too cruel! After all, Cui Fei had just arrived and had only some watery scrambled eggs.
Shen Aoshuang did not notice the others' hesitant expressions. While thanking them, she picked up the bowl of soup and brought it to her lips.
After drinking it in one gulp, his face suddenly changed!
He was usually calm and composed, but at this moment he looked as if he had been struck by lightning, so he immediately attracted everyone's attention.
“Is it really that bad?”
Chen Cui had just distributed a bowl to everyone. While asking, she quickly picked up her own bowl and tasted it.
Well, it's not that bad to drink, it's just like drinking vinegar, just a little bit sour.
The others also tasted the soup in their bowls, and their reactions were the same as Shen Cui's, which was just plain unpalatable.
Wei Shu and the others didn't know about Chen Aoshuang's situation. They thought that they were all 'battle-hardened', so their tolerance was trained. Chen Aoshuang had not experienced what happened before, and maybe he couldn't eat sour food, so they said: "Brother Chen, if you don't like it, you don't have to force yourself to finish it."
Mu Erpang also nodded and agreed, "Yes, if it doesn't suit your taste, just leave it. I'll go get Brother Shen a bowl of water to rinse his mouth."
Chen Aoshuang had already lowered his head, and only raised his eyes after a while, his eye sockets were actually a little red. He first said no, and then said sincerely: "This soup... is so delicious! I have never tasted such delicious soup!"
Shen Cui blushed with guilt after being praised so sincerely by him. After all, the boys in the academy were all very well-behaved and sensible, but they just didn't look down on her craftsmanship. No one had ever praised her so sincerely in front of her.
She asked what was wrong with the system?
The system said: [The host is using system ingredients, which are not bound by the rules. In addition, the academy has blocked some of the 'settings' given to him by the rules. It can be understood that one plus one is greater than two... Therefore, the No. 6 training object can taste all the flavors like a normal person. 】
Being able to taste all flavors like a normal person, isn’t this the ultimate delicacy for a person with taste disorders?
After she finished communicating with the system, Shen Aoshuang had already finished the small bowl of soup in one breath, and asked shyly, "Can I have another bowl?"
After everyone else in the academy had a small bowl, there was still half of the soup bowl left. Shen Cui was prepared to cover the rest herself, so she naturally said yes.
So Shen Aoshuang drank the last half basin of 'ink' soup, and while drinking, an expression of enjoyment appeared on his face.
Until the end of dinner, when everyone returned to the classroom, Shen Aoshuang was still savoring the extremely sour taste on the tip of her tongue, which made her want to scream.
At this time, except for Chen Aoshuang, everyone else had almost finished their homework, so they started discussing with each other and invited Lao Buyu to give them some advice. The atmosphere in the classroom became much more relaxed than before.
Chen Aoshuang calmed down, turned his head and asked Mu Erpang, "Brother Hanshan, your academy is different from others, right?"
Speaking of this, Wei Shu and Cui Fei, the Cuiwei Feng Shui promotion ambassadors, were very excited!
