Chapter 41: Failing to Recognize the Great Master



Lu Rongrong was so engrossed in her food that she couldn't even lift her head. "Yeah, it's worthy of being a dish that Yi Zhiqing would make. It tastes really good!"

"This is meat, it tastes good no matter how you cook it. Ah! It's almost finished!"

Yi Xiaoqiu quickly changed the subject to prevent them from constantly talking about her cooking skills.

When everyone heard this, regardless of whether there was braised lion head in the bowl or not, they started to move their chopsticks faster.

After a quick feast, the braised lion's head was quickly finished. These people even drank the soup at the bottom of the bowl and soaked it up with their steamed buns.

Gao Dazhuang and his crew continued to work after dinner.

Shen Ruofei sat aside and was reluctant to leave. She felt that she had not eaten enough, so she put down her bowl and chopsticks reluctantly.

"Xiaoqiu, the braised lion's head you made is so delicious! It's on par with the ones in state-owned restaurants. When will you make it next time? Let me know in advance so I can taste it for you."

The people next to him subconsciously pricked up their ears to listen to Yi Xiaoqiu's answer.

How could Yi Xiaoqiu possibly make such a big meat dish twice in a row? In the past, even the landlord’s family didn’t eat like this.

Yi Xiaoqiu raised her chin and focused her gaze on the people who had just been badmouthing her at the door. "When I was cooking just now, who was it that said that I was wasting food? I think the person who said that must have eaten quite a bit!"

Gu Chengfeng glanced at Xie Xingzhi and Lu Huaian.

The two of them had awkward smiles on their faces. It could be said that they were the ones who ate the most among the people at the table.

"Xie Zhiqing, Lu Zhiqing, do you know who said that?"

Yi Xiaoqiu would not let them go so easily, she still had a daily mission to complete!

"Hehe... I was blind and didn't realize that Yi Zhiqing was a great chef!" Lu Huaian gave a flattering smile.

"Yeah." Xie Xingzhi nodded repeatedly.

"Then I'll punish you to wash dishes for three days. That's not too much, right?" Yi Xiaoqiu pointed to the dishes and chopsticks on the table.

It is a big project to clean up the pots on the three stoves and more than 30 bowls and chopsticks.

The two looked at each other, and then… "Yi Zhiqing is actually not just the two of us who are blind, but also Gu Zhiqing and Lan Zhiqing."

Lan Tingxu subconsciously waved his hand, "I don't have any. I'm saying that as long as it's meat, it tastes good no matter how it's cooked!"

Lu Huaian had a look on his face that said, "Lan Zhiqing, you don't need to explain. I know you're saying this because you clearly don't think highly of Yi Zhiqing's craftsmanship."

Xie Xingzhi nodded, "Yes, and Gu Zhiqing too. After you took the meat, his face was full of displeasure. I saw that he ate no less than me!"

He actually had no guilt in saying this, as Gu Chengfeng ate his meal slowly and gracefully, even comparable to Xie Xingzhi's slow and steady eating.

"Then let each person wash for one day! Let us female comrades take a break." Yi Xiaoqiu rolled her eyes.

Gu Chengfeng and the others immediately put on masks of pain on their faces.

[Congratulations to the host for completing the daily mission, and reward 20 attribute points]

Yi Xiaoqiu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the system announcement.

Shen Ruofei raised her hand, "I agree with this. Xiaoqiu, when will you do it next time? And let them wash the dishes."

How come this guy is a bigger foodie than Xie Xingzhi? If she wants to eat, she can eat it secretly by herself, it will taste better!

Yi Xiaoqiu shook his head and said, "No meat, I won't cook it anymore."

The others were all disappointed when they heard this.

Shen Ruofei's face fell, "Are you doing this on purpose? I'm only doing it once to whet my appetite. The mushroom soup I made before made me run to the bathroom several times. You have to make it up to me! Next time I'll get some meat, you must help me braise the lion's head!"

Yi Xiaoqiu looked incredulous.

"Last time, you picked the mushrooms for the mushroom soup, and you cooked the soup, and now you still have the nerve to blame me!"

Shen Ruofei was still shameless, "Oh! I'm poisoned, just treat it as a tonic for me!"

Yi Xiaoqiu looked her up and down. This girl had been cheating on others. She looked fat after being here for half a month.

"You've... gained a lot of weight, haven't you? Isn't it time to control it?"

Shen Ruofei subconsciously touched the soft flesh on her waist. Well, it was a little loose.

Yi Xiaoqiu smacked his lips and shook his head, saying, "You're not tall. If you gain weight, it won't look good when you get it."

Yi Xiaoqiu was used to being rude. Shen Ruofei was originally a girl with fair skin and beautiful looks, and had a pair of peach blossom eyes. Although she was not tall, she was only a little over 160cm tall, which was definitely not short in that era. Even if she was a little fatter, she would only make people feel that she was very cute and blessed.

What's more, she is still very thin now.

It's definitely not good-looking, unless she is a fat person weighing 200 kilograms.

What could Shen Ruofei say? It was a fact that she had gained weight. Between being thin and eating delicious food, she would choose delicious food for the time being.

Shen Ruofei rolled her eyes at Yi Xiaoqiu, "Huh! Big brother doesn't talk about second brother, aren't you the same."

"Hahaha... It's time to clean up. I'll boil some water for a bath." Yi Xiaoqiu threw down a bowl, got up and went back to his room.

She felt that if the two continued to attack each other like this, their friendship would be in jeopardy.

Yi Xiaoqiu is a person who follows her heart. She is a cannon fodder, so it is better for her not to seek death.

Now, Yi Xiaoqiu basically washes up in the bathroom of the farm cabin. When he feels energetic, he takes a bath. If he finds it troublesome, he can just shower directly. It is very convenient.

Since they started building the house, Gu Chengfeng, Mo Hengan and the others often brought back some wild game from the mountains to supplement their meals.

Ye Xiaoqiu couldn't help but envy these seven male protagonists. They were like the seven gourd brothers, each with their own magical powers. As long as they didn't go up the mountain, they would definitely not return empty-handed. Of course, luck was also a part of their strength.

That day, Gu Chengfeng had just walked into the backyard carrying a roe deer when he was entangled by Lu Rongrong.

"Brother Gu, I want to eat egg cake. When can you go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some?"

Gu Chengfeng shook his head. "Rongrong, you've just started building the house, and the money your family sent you hasn't arrived yet. You should spend it sparingly."

Lu Rongrong stamped her feet. "Brother Gu, I still have money! Liu Xiaoping can't even afford ten yuan, and she's still eating egg cakes. I'm also... You can't just sit there and watch, right?"

Yi Xiaoqiu was washing her hands at the door, and when she heard Liu Xiaoping's name, she immediately became alert.

Liu Xiaoping, who didn't have ten dollars on her, actually ate egg cake?

It's not that Ye Xiaoqiu looks down on people. Through the original owner's memory, she also knows a little about Liu Xiaoping. She is extremely frugal in her daily life and is definitely not the kind of person who would buy egg cakes to eat.

Yi Xiaoqiu suddenly thought of what he had seen in the woods before.

No way!

Liu Xiaoping actually did such a thing!

However, what Yi Xiaoqiu is most concerned about now is not Liu Xiaoping's affairs, but her daily tasks for today.

Yi Xiaoqiu wiped his hands with a hint of a smile on his face, "Gu Zhiqing, this is your fault. Lu Zhiqing is your childhood sweetheart. She wants to eat egg cake, but you are unwilling to spend a bit of effort. You are really derelict in your duty!"

Lu Rongrong curled her lips and said, "Exactly. Before we went to the countryside, my parents asked you to take care of me, and you agreed. Is this how you take care of me now?"
