After returning home, Yu Bai went into the kitchen himself, stewing a pot of wild boar rib soup and making a dish of braised pork liver.
This dish was specially made by Yu Bai for Zhou Fengxia.
After working so hard for so many years, Zhou Fengxia's eyesight became blurry early on.
Pig liver improves eyesight, and the liver of this mutant wild boar is even more effective.
What's more, during this period of time, she was busy outside, and all the chores at home were taken care of by Zhou Fengxia alone. She also had to deal with Old Man Yu and Yu Dongshun's family.
Yu Bai saw this hard work and grievance, and felt pain in his heart, and felt that he owed a lot.
In the living room, the family sat around the table.
Yu Bai poured a bowl of pork rib soup and pushed it in front of Zhou Fengxia, saying softly, "Mom, try this, it's nourishing."
Then he added a spoonful of stir-fried pork liver into Zhou Fengxia's bowl and said, "Pork liver is good for eyesight. Eat more."
Zhou Fengxia naturally understood her daughter's filial piety. There was warmth in her eyes and eyebrows, and she happily enjoyed her daughter's kindness.
She picked up a piece. The pork liver was tender and smooth, with a rich sauce flavor. It melted in her mouth, and a warm current quietly nourished her tired eyes.
The food is delicious and the family is enjoying a rare moment of warmth, but an unexpected guest comes uninvited.
"Bang, bang, bang!" The rough knocks on the door broke the silence.
Yu Nian went to open the door, and outside stood Old Man Yu, Wang Guiying, and Yu Dongshun following behind them.
Old Man Yu stood with his hands behind his back and his chin slightly raised, still looking as if he was the best in the world. However, deep in his eyes, there was a barely perceptible trace of fear towards Yu Bai.
He thought about the new house over and over again and came up with some "new ideas".
But now Yu Bai has the final say on all matters big and small at home, and his tricks of throwing a tantrum are probably no longer effective, so he dragged his wife and son to the house together.
He cleared his throat, and without entering the house, he stood at the door and said in a domineering tone: "Yu Bai, that new house..."
Yu Bai didn't even raise his eyelids. He just called out "Grandpa" lightly and continued to eat with his head down, as if he didn't hear the second half of his sentence.
Zhou Fengxia and Yu Nian followed suit. After greeting them, they concentrated on the food in their bowls, as if the three people in front of them were just ordinary air.
This disregard completely ignited Old Man Yu’s anger!
His old face turned red in an instant, his beard puffed and his eyes glared, his chest heaved violently, and he was obviously very angry.
Seeing this, Wang Guiying immediately jumped out to defend her, her voice shrill: "What's your attitude? Do you have any manners? Our elders are here, and you can't even show them a good face..."
Before he could finish his words, Yu Bai's gaze suddenly shot over, but there was no warmth in his eyes.
Wang Guiying's voice suddenly stopped, and the rest of the words were stuck in her throat, and she couldn't utter a single word.
"What does grandma want to say?" Yu Bai's voice was flat, but also cold.
Seeing that his father was about to jump up and down again and his mother was about to say something unpleasant, Yu Dongshun was startled and quickly stepped forward, standing in front of the two of them with a smile, fearing that they would say something unpleasant again and completely annoy his niece.
"Xiaobai, don't be angry. Your grandparents are also... concerned about the new house."
Yu Dongshun rubbed his hands, forced a flattering smile on his face, and spoke cautiously.
"Well, your grandfather was thinking, isn't the backyard of the new house quite big? He wanted to dig a pond, raise some fish, and plant some lotus roots or something. Then we can eat fresh food all the time."
Yu Bai raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this.
pond?
Raising fish and growing lotus roots?
Her grandfather and uncle's family are notoriously lazy in the village. When did they become so diligent?
The sun rises from the west?
Yu Dongshun saw the suspicion in Yu Bai's eyes at a glance and hurriedly explained.
"This is... This is because Yunian opened a supermarket and bought vegetables from the village."
"Your grandfather thought this was a way to make a living. He's old, and farming is hard. Raising fish and lotus roots is relatively easy, and it can also earn some pocket money. He can't always rely on you guys, right?"
These words made Yu Bai look at Yu Dongshun with a higher opinion, and he also became more critical of Old Man Yu's little thoughts.
If you really want to make a living, it's always good.
"Alright," Yu Bai nodded calmly, "The backyard is big enough, you can do whatever you want."
After getting Yu Bai's promise, Old Man Yu and the other two showed a hint of joy on their faces, but their feet seemed to have taken root and did not move at all.
Three pairs of eyes, at the same time, were cast straight at the pot of steaming pork rib soup on the dining table.
The rich aroma of meat, even from a distance, penetrates into the nostrils domineeringly, arousing the appetite of people.
Especially the spareribs, which were stewed until tender and boneless, and the soup was thick and white, which was obviously a good thing.
"Xiaobai,"
Yu Dongshun swallowed hard, his eyes almost glued to the pot of soup.
"Where did you buy this pork? Why does it smell so good? I'll go weigh some tomorrow and let your aunt make some soup."
Yu Bai and Yunian looked at each other, and there was a hint of understanding and... a slight hesitation in each other's eyes.
This is mutated wild boar meat, which contains weak energy. It is very beneficial for ordinary people to eat it, but its origin is difficult to explain.
After a moment, Yu Bai put down his bowl and chopsticks, stood up and said, "Wait a minute."
She turned and went into the kitchen. Yu Nian understood and followed her in, closing the door behind her.
Taking advantage of the cover of the kitchen, Yu Bai moved his mind, took out a wild boar rib from the space, and then walked out of the kitchen.
"Take this back and try it." Yu Bai handed the ribs to Yu Dongshun, his tone still calm, and no emotion could be heard.
