Despite Wang Jinfang’s usually picky and stingy demeanor, she remained quite warm when dealing with acquaintances.
Besides, She and Wang Tieniu were relatives.
Wang Tieniu explained the situation with a smile.
Shocked, Wang Jinfang asked, “Brother Tieniu, are you joking or being serious? Don’t tease me!”
As Ni Facai was in poor health, Wang Jinfang was having a hard time making ends meet. So, the news of getting 60 yuan got her extremely excited.
With that 60 yuan, their family could feast for the coming new year!
However, she had spoken badly of Ni Yang behind her back…
Would Ni Yang really ask her for help?
She found it somewhat hard to believe.
Wang Tieniu smiled and said, “Would I lie? Do you think I’ve nothing better to do? Here is your wage. If you’re free, join us in the city tomorrow at noon.” “Great! I’ll be there!” Wang Jinfang graciously took the money and thanked Tieniu profusely.
Wang Tieniu continued, “You don’t need to thank me. If anyone, thank Yangyang.”
Wang Jinfang laughed, her eyes nearly disappearing from her joyous face, “Right, right, I should thank Yangyang, thank Yangyang!”
She had acted foolishly by misunderstanding Ni Yang.
Lucky for her, Ni Yang was forgiving and didn’t hold her past actions against her.
Right now, apart from being grateful, Wang Jinfang deeply appreciated Ni Yang.
Thinking about the harsh words she had spoken about Ni Yang before, she really regretted it.
Teach her to talk behind other’s backs!
Teach her to be mean to others!
If anyone dared to badmouth Ni Yang in the future, Wang Jinfang swore she’d give them a slap!
When Ni Yang returned, Ni Cuihua had washed and prepared all the vegetables.
The fish and shrimp meat were finely chopped too.
The beef bones were stewing in the pot, and the air was filled with their tempting aroma.
Ni Yang rolled up her sleeves and began to prepare the hot pot base. Everyone in Jinghua Village, from the elderly to toddlers as young as three years old, loved spicy food, so she didn’t need to worry about making a mild hot pot for the children.
However, she still prepared a non-spicy base, just in case any children couldn’t handle the heat. The copper pot for the hot pot was layered, ideal for a “double-flavour” hot pot.
After preparing the hot pot base, Ni Yang started making fish balls and shrimp slides.
Having done it successfully once before, she made quicker progress this time.
Fish balls and shrimp slides were not only a treat for the taste buds, but they also had high nutritional value and low cost, so Ni Yang made extra.
The rest was the handling of beef and lamb.
After prepping the hot pot ingredients, Ni Yang cooked three side dishes that were good for skin health and beauty.
Additionally, she also prepared a big jar of chilled sour plum soup.
The combination of piping hot hot pot and iced sour plum soup was simply perfect.
Once all the dishes were on the table, Goudan and Yang Guobao brought all the children to the table.
There were fifteen children of different ages, the oldest being thirteen and the youngest around five or six years old.
Seeing so many children, Ni Yun laughed with joy.
Little Ni Yun was fair and chubby, which attracted the kids’ attention, and they all gathered around to play with her.
After a short while, Ni Chenggui returned from work. At first, she was stunned to see the house filled with people, then laughed and said, “Ni Yang, are you throwing a party at home again?”
Ni Yang replied, “Guobao is leaving tomorrow, we’re having a farewell party. Aunty Ni, go wash your hands, and we can start eating.”
Ni Chenggui immediately went to wash her hands.
The children were well-behaved and took their seats around the table.
The spicy, red oil base.
The fragrant, white soup base.
The boiling base teased their taste buds with its inviting aroma, and without even starting to cook the food in it, everyone already started salivating.
Ni Chenggui walked in from the outside after washing her hands, and said with a smile, “Enjoy your meal, don’t wait for me.”
Ni Yang distributed small plates of oil dipping sauce to each child and said, “Make yourselves at home. Here, at Sister Ni Yang’s, you can eat as much as you like.”
Everyone immediately dug in.
Soon after, the air was filled with delightful exclamations.
“This is delicious!”
“Sister Ni Yang is so talented.”
Panghu took a bite of the shrimp slide, turned to Ni Yang, and said unclearly, “Sister Ni Yang, you’re awesome! Your cooking is way better than my mom’s!”
“Hmm, it’s even better than my mom’s cooking..”
