They chatted for a while, and seeing that it was almost time for dinner, Meng Ying got up and prepared to cook.
"Shushu, you stay here first. If you feel bored, go to your room and play with your younger brothers and sisters. I'll go cook first. You and Mingjing will stay home for lunch today." She patted Jianshu's hand and stood up.
Looking at the father and son who were chatting excitedly next to him, Jian Shu also stood up and said, "Auntie, let me help you."
Cooking for six people is a big project and takes a lot of time.
Meng Ying refused: "No, just sit here for a while."
"Do you still treat me as an outsider? Then I will be very sad. Besides, I have nothing to do when I am free. It is so boring to cook alone. We can talk together, mother and daughter. Please don't refuse." Jianshu walked over, smiled, took her hand, and said angrily.
Meng Ying was stunned at first, then she smiled, "Okay, I'll listen to you. Let's go together."
After saying that, the mother and daughter walked into the kitchen hand in hand, without even looking at the father and son outside.
Two tactless guys who didn't even come in to help.
snort!
Walking into the kitchen, Meng Ying took out the vegetables and meat she had prepared in advance. Without further ado, she glanced at them and said, "Shushu, help me pick the vegetables first. I'll make the soup first."
"Okay." Jianshu nodded in response.
Because they had made an appointment in advance, the Zhao family prepared a lot of good things for today, including mutton, pork, fish and various side dishes. It was very rich and could be compared to the dishes made with noodles.
Fortunately, both of them are veterans in the kitchen. They are quick and efficient in their work. Plus, with someone to chat with, it doesn't seem boring.
When the aroma of the slowly simmered mutton soup filled the house, it woke up the two people who were addicted outside and also lured the brother and sister who were playing marbles in the room.
By this time, the food was almost ready.
Zhao Mingze and Gu Mingjing looked at each other and saw the emptiness in each other's eyes. They couldn't help but smile at each other tacitly.
Ah, this...
Gu Mingjing touched his nose unconsciously, stood up and walked towards the kitchen.
Although it's late, it's good to be able to make up for it.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Jianshu walking out with a big pot of sauerkraut stewed with vermicelli. He hurriedly went to take it.
"Be careful of the burns, let me do it, I'll do it." He smiled ingratiatingly.
Jianshu rolled his eyes at him, but didn't stop him.
Zhao Mingze had already come to Meng Ying's side and took the spatula from her hand.
"Shushu, go tell the two little ones to get ready for dinner." Seeing that there were already people to cook and serve the dishes, and the kitchen area was limited, Meng Ying sent her away.
Jian Shu responded and walked towards the room.
"Get ready for dinner!" she shouted before she even got there.
When he opened the door, he saw Zhao Tianrui lying on the ground with his butt sticking up.
"Lingling, it's time to eat. What is Ruirui doing? He's lying on the ground, so dirty, and his clothes are all covered in dust." She asked Zhao Yueling beside her in confusion.
Hearing the noise, Zhao Yueling turned around and looked over. She replied, "Okay, I'll be right there. Ruirui, get ready to eat first, and we'll look for you after you finish eating."
Then he explained to Jianshu, "Two of Ruirui's marbles rolled away and he's looking for them."
Marbles are small and round. If you don't watch them carefully, you don't know where they will roll to. In addition, the room is not spacious enough and there are many obstacles, which makes the search even more difficult.
Jian Shu understood and shouted at Zhao Tianrui, "Ruirui, stop looking for him. Let's go eat first. We have your favorite mutton soup at noon today. If you go too late, your brother Gu and the others will drink it all up."
Upon hearing the mutton soup, Zhao Tianrui, who was reluctant to give up his marbles, got up from the ground immediately, casually brushed off the dust on his body and wanted to rush out.
"Mutton soup!" His eyes lit up.
But it was intercepted by Jianshu halfway.
Looking at the dust on his face and body, he looked like a little cat. Jianshu felt helpless and amused.
With disgust, she grabbed his still clean collar with one finger and dragged him towards the pool.
"Okay, hurry up and dust yourself off, and then wash the dust off your face, or you'll be punished later and don't blame me for not helping you."
If you go to a restaurant in this state, you will definitely be taught a lesson.
Smelling the fragrance filling the room, and looking at the dust on his hands, chest, and trouser legs, Zhao Tianrui sniffed and silently began to brush the dust off himself.
He doesn't want to be taught a lesson.
"Okay, clean up here by yourselves. Come over for dinner when you're done." Jian Shu was too lazy to accompany him. He was already a big enough kid, so he could still do this by himself.
Just as I turned around and reached out my hand, I heard an urgent voice, "Sister Shushu!"
She turned and looked over, "Huh?"
"Mutton soup--" Zhao Tianrui looked at her pitifully and expectantly.
Jianshu didn't understand at first, but after thinking about it, he knew what he meant.
This delicious ghost!
He smiled and said soothingly, "Don't worry, I'll save the mutton soup for you. You won't finish it."
After getting the guarantee, Zhao Tianrui felt relieved and started cleaning again.
He had to hurry up; if he went earlier he could drink more mutton soup.
If Jianshu knew what he was thinking, she would just laugh at him for being so cautious. He only had a small stomach, and he wanted to drink more? He was lucky to be able to drink another bowl.
When we arrived at the restaurant, the table was already filled with steaming food. There were six dishes in total: mutton soup, braised pork, sweet and sour spare ribs, braised fish fillets, sauerkraut and pork belly stewed with vermicelli, and one piece of stir-fried cabbage. The five dishes and one soup were quite generous and very hearty.
