"That must be delicious, all the good stuff," Jiang Xinyu said with a smile.
"Teacher Jiang, is this not the local way of cooking?"
"No, I learned it when I was in college."
Wang nglin grew up in a wealthy ho, but watching Jiang Xinyu cook, she felt herself being too petty.
Jiang Xinyu cooked very directly and boldly, using a large pot. Fish heads and bones went straight into the pot to simr, and she even added half a bowl of milk powder.
When the two large bowls of boiled fish were topped with hot oil, the fragrant and spicy aroma directly conquered Tao Chunhe’s taste buds.
"Alright, I won’t keep you two here, hurry back and eat, this dish is best served hot."
Tao Chunhe left carrying the large bowl.
Back ho, the rice Tao Yanzhen cooked was already stead, and she was stir-frying shredded potatoes.
"What’s this? Is this fish? Why does it sll so good?"
"Quickly, let’s eat. I think you’ll want to eat fish more often from now on," Tao Chunhe said with a smile.
The three siblings ate a whole bowl of fish; since there were no bean sprouts, Jiang Xinyu used shredded potatoes instead, but the taste was still very good.
In the end, the three siblings all ate too much.
"Didn’t expect fish could be made so delicious. Jiang Xinyu is really good at cooking."
"Yeah, I watched from the side, and it’s not complicated at all. Next ti, I can try making it myself too." Wang nglin unceremoniously burped.
"Really not complicated?"
"It’s really quite simple."
Tao Chunhe ate too much today; he’s being trained as a successor and usually has requirents for himself, forgetting what it felt like to eat too much.
His mind kept pondering about Jiang Xinyu; what kind of woman is she? She doesn’t seem much older than the sisters? Today, he also t Lv Jingchu, both appearing in his sight simultaneously.
Suddenly, Lv Jingchu seed dim in comparison, the two weren’t on the sa level.
This must be Jiang Xinyu’s charm, at first sight seeing Wei Kaiyun, he wondered what kind of woman would such a handso and capable man’s partner be?
From afar, he deed Jiang Xinyu as an ordinary woman, thinking perhaps Wei Kaiyun appreciated her inner qualities.
But after today’s close encounter, Tao Chunhe felt himself captivated, of course, the deliciousness played a role too.
"Brother, what are you thinking about?"
"Jiang Xinyu."
"Xiao Zhen, you haven’t t Jiang Xinyu, but at first glance, I felt close to her, I like her."
Tao Yanzhen paused; there are indeed few people who can make cousin like them.
Due to her sister’s interruption, Tao Chunhe ended his thought process.
"I’m going to see the Village Chief, after all, we ate fish, and it’s public property."
"Hmm, should I go with you?"
"I’ll go too," Wang nglin stood up, really having eaten too much.
Tonight, they’ll have to go to bed at least an hour later than usual.
The three tidied the table and left the house together.
Their ho was quite close to Li Yungui’s, due to Jin Erlin’s request.
He thought it would be convenient to take care of matters being closer to Li Yungui.
The three strolled to Li Yungui’s ho; they were having dinner.
"Tao, you three siblings co eat at my place."
"Village Chief Li, no thanks, we’ve already eaten. I caught two big grass carp in the river today, should I contribute so money for them as they’re public goods?"
Li Yungui is quite pleased with Tao Chunhe’s sensibility.
"No need, it’s just two fish. Everyone usually goes, but can’t go all the ti, then it’d be tricky."
"Thanks Village Chief Li."
After leaving the Li family, the three wandered about, none keen on heading back.
"Brother, look at how lush the mountain is, it must hold lots of treasures."
"Village Chief Li warned not to go up the mountain indiscriminately.
Let’s wait for an opportunity; no need to cause trouble over this."
"Hmm, I think the village will certainly organize everyone to go up together."
"Of course, there are so many treasures on the mountain. After autumn, we’ll definitely head up. Didn’t Jin Erlin ntion there are wild boars up there?"
"Do you think we three can handle wild boars?"
"Who knows? We’ll find out when we follow along."
The Wei family dined directly in the courtyard, two bowls of boiled fish, garlic greens, stir-fried shrimp with chives, and stead eggplant.
Although everyone liked eating, nobody overindulged since they still get to enjoy it periodically.
After dinner, the family sat in the courtyard chatting; Guodong had already soaked waterlons in well water.
"Xinyu, do you have a fondness for that female Zhiqing?"
"Yes, clear eyes, she’s a good girl."
"Aunt Jiang, that Wang Zhiqing is quite reserved."
"Jingchu, actually, such people tend to have clear thoughts."
"We won’t interact much in the future, becoming friends is great, if not, it’s fine."
Jiang Xinyu couldn’t do much about Jingchu; maybe it’s due to her strong self-defense instinct or social barriers, her circle of friends is truly small.
It was after Li Xue beca her sister-in-law that their relationship truly improved; before that, they were just friends.
This girl doesn’t easily open up. But there’s a benefit, since she’s so beautiful, this self-protection is necessary.
Guodong said he would head out. Everyone knew he was going to find his wife, that’s fairly normal.
Jiang Xinyu couldn’t help but ask Jingchu beside her.
"Your brother has a wife now, don’t you want to find a boyfriend?"
Jingchu shook her head decisively, "Aunt Jiang, I’m still not thinking about that."
"Do you have any thoughts on your brother and sister-in-law’s relationship, or their way of interacting?" What’s up with this slow girl?
"Too clingy, I don’t like that."
Jiang Xinyu was left speechless, wondering what kind of person this girl would et in the future? Who can enlighten this girl?
Zhao Xiaoli also worried on the side, having found a happy family with a loved spouse, naturally hoping Jingchu would too, but clearly, she hasn’t yet awakened.
Jiang Xinyu deliberately asked in front of the whole family, but this girl showed no sign of discomfort, even in front of Wei Kaiyun and Old Yang.
Now the worry arises, previously fearing she’d be fooled early, but now it’s the complete opposite.
Wei Kaiyun simply laughed; his wife worry too soon, that girl evidently hasn’t awakened yet, she’s still young, not urgent.
However, he thought of Yang Zhongyi, who hasn’t co around for a long ti; is there any issue?
That kid is honest, hasn’t privately tricked their girl. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be let off.
