The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man - Chapter 500
Chapter 500: 500 Second brother couldn’t wait any longer 1
“Second brother has a leg injury, and he carried water all afternoon.”
“I’m also weak and washed pig offal all afternoon…”
“Second brother’s work was harder.” She admits.
“I don’t care.” He is unreasonable, “If you don’t help me serve food, I won’t…”
She laughs, “It’s better if you don’t eat my cooking.”
“I actually planned not to.” He stared at the bowl of stir-fried pork intestine, almost drooling, “I’ve never eaten such delicious stir-fried pork intestine; I better eat it.”
“Don’t force yourself, third brother…”
“No forcing, no forcing. I’m happy to!” He finally picked up his chopsticks and obediently served himself. He thought to himself, his wife was really unfair.
Xiao Qinghe was also waiting for his wife to serve him, but seeing that third brother couldn’t get any favors, he had no choice but to silently pick up his chopsticks. He tasted the stir-fried pork intestine first, “Qingyue, the third brother is not wrong; it’s really delicious!”
“My wife, how about not selling pig intestines tomorrow and just eating them ourselves…” Xiao Yuchuan suggested.
Xiao Yishan and Xiao Qinghe’s eyes lit up with agreement.
Su Qingyue was dumbfounded, “Are you kidding? I cooked two jin of pork intestine tonight, and we still have seventy-eight jin left. How can we eat them all by ourselves?”
“We can…” Yuchuan said.
She said, “If you like it, I can cook it every day. There’s just no thick broad-bean sauce. If we stir-fry it with some thick broad-bean sauce, the taste will be even better.”
Xiao Yishan’s determined face showed confusion, “Yue’er, what is thick broad-bean sauce?”
“It’s a sauce made from beans.” Xiao Yuchuan chimed in, “I knew some people who used to make it when I was selling goods.”
“Yes.” Qingyue nodded.
Yuchuan said, “My wife, I’ll go buy some thick broad-bean sauce another day.”
“Why do you need to go?” She laughed, “I’ll just buy it on my way to town tomorrow.”
“That’s true.” Xiao Yuchuan ate his rice with stir-fried pork intestine and asked, “My wife, how did you learn to cook pig intestines so deliciously?”
She had been asked a similar question before. “As I said, I figured it out myself.”
“My wife, you are so si…” Realizing that she didn’t like such compliments and seeing her stern look, Xiao Yuchuan changed his words with a smile, “My wife is so clever.”
She nodded, “If I’m not smart, how can I show how dumb you are?”
Xiao Yuchuan chuckled, “My wife, if I, your husband, am dumb, then there are no clever people in the world.”
“Who compliments themselves like that?” she couldn’t help but roll her eyes.
“Now you’ve seen it.” He grinned, his teeth perfectly aligned.
The dinner was filled with laughter and occasional teasing between the two, creating a very pleasant atmosphere.
They finished every bit of the braised pork intestine, even the condiments. In contrast, they only ate one bowl out of the three bowls of precious stir-fried meat.
Qingyue made them eat their vegetables.
They also finished all the stir-fried vegetables.
Xiao Yuchuan touched his full belly, “My wife, do as you said and cook pork intestine tomorrow.”
She said, “You’ve seen how to cook it, everyone can do it. If you want to eat it, feel free to cook it yourself.”
“Oh.” He couldn’t bear for his wife to work too hard, “I’m just afraid that my cooking won’t be as delicious as yours.”
“The same method, just control the heat a bit, and it will be similar.” She knew that the third and fourth brothers at home cooked delicious dishes. As for the second brother, his cooking could only be described as not bad.
As for the dishwashing and other chores in the kitchen, the men in the family wouldn’t let Su Qingyue help at all.
