“Grandpa,” Chu Heng put down the fish with pickled cabbages and greeted Liu Hanlai.

“Heng? Quickly sit over. Grandpa hasn’t seen you for a long time. I heard that it has been hard on you for today’s matter…” Since the elders were looking for him, he could not refuse. Ye Muyu nodded at him and asked him to talk to his uncle’s family.

As for other matters, she could wait until he was free.

Ye Muyu turned around and returned to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Chu Qingxiang was the one cooking. The cooking competition would be in the afternoon. Madam Zhang was afraid that she would be nervous, so she simply asked her to prepare lunch. She watched from the side. If there was anything wrong, she could help remind her at the last moment.

“Third Aunt, did I put in the right amount?” Chu Qingxiang asked when she saw Ye Muyu enter.

Madam Zhang also knew that Ye Muyu was good at cooking, so she didn’t interrupt.

Ye Muyu took a look and nodded. “Yes, but pay attention to the heat. After the meat slices are fried until there are tiny oil bubbles on the surface, you can take them out.”

“If it’s too brown, the meat will be overcooked. The taste won’t be very good.”

“Thank you, Third Aunt.” When Chu Qingxiang heard this, she quickly turned around to look at the meat in the pot. As expected, after a while, the surface of the meat started to bubble.

It was fragrant but not greasy. Just the smell alone was enough to make three bowls of rice.

Madam Zhang could not help but sigh. “Who would have thought that there would be so many processes to cooking meat in the past? You have to put in bean paste and seasoning. You have to pay attention to when to put in the pepper when to put in the garlic sprouts, and when to take them out of the pot. ‘

“In the past, it was already good enough to have meat to eat.”

“I just didn’t expect meat to be so fragrant.” Madam Wang also muttered. Because of her frugal nature, she was usually reluctant to eat meat. Why would she waste oil and add seasoning to cook meat?

However, he had to admit that the meat that had just come out of the pot was really fragrant.

It was so fragrant that she could not help but swallow her saliva. If the younger generation knew about it, she would lose her face.

Madam Wang was naturally embarrassed to say what she was thinking.

Instead, she decided to make more pickled vegetables to sell, save more money, and buy more land. Only then could she buy meat to improve their food.

The little scene in the kitchen quickly passed.

Ye Muyu and Madam Wang helped to bring the dishes to the table.

After Chu Qingxiang finished frying the meat, Madam Zhang chased her out and asked her to wash her body to get rid of the smell of smoke. She had to go to the competition in the afternoon, so she would definitely meet Song Lu.

Madam Zhang used the remaining oil from the fried meat in the pot to stir-fry the old pumpkin pieces. She spread the rice on top and first cooked it until it was fragrant. A layer of pumpkin rice crust could be formed at the bottom of the pot. Then, she reduced the fire and steamed it. A soft, sweet, and glutinous pumpkin rice was ready.

In the central room, everyone was seated.

The men sat at the same table, and they were all drinking.

The woman and the child sat at another table so that it was convenient for them to eat.

Chu Heng accompanied the elders to sit at the main table while Ye Muyu brought Chu Ziluo to sit at the dining table by the door.

When everyone was here, they began to eat.

Ye Muyu picked some vegetables for her daughter and scooped a bowl of radish bone soup for her.

Chu Ziluo followed her mother’s habit of drinking soup before eating.

The bone soup was very fragrant. The white radish was filled with soup. When he took a bite, it was soft and delicious.

“Mother, the bone radish soup is really delicious.” Chu Ziluo whispered.

Ye Muyu looked at the bone and radish soup and thought of a famous snack in her previous life, oden. It tasted good when radish was added to the soup.

“When we get back, Mother will make you some fresh food.” Ye Muyu reminded her to eat after drinking the soup..
