âSecond brother has a leg injury, and he carried water all afternoon.â
âIâm also weak and washed pig offal all afternoonâ¦â
âSecond brotherâs work was harder.â She admits.
âI donât care.â He is unreasonable, âIf you donât help me serve food, I wonâtâ¦â
She laughs, âItâs better if you donât eat my cooking.â
âI actually planned not to.â He stared at the bowl of stir-fried pork intestine, almost drooling, âIâve never eaten such delicious stir-fried pork intestine; I better eat it.â
âDonât force yourself, third brotherâ¦ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âNo forcing, no forcing. Iâm happy to!â 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 couldnât get any favors, he had no choice but to silently pick up his chopsticks. He tasted the stir-fried pork intestine first, âQingyue, the third brother is not wrong; itâs really delicious!â
âMy wife, how about not selling pig intestines tomorrow and just eating them ourselvesâ¦â Xiao Yuchuan suggested.
Xiao Yishan and Xiao Qingheâs eyes lit up with agreement.
Su Qingyue was dumbfounded, âAre 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?â
âWe canâ¦â Yuchuan said.
She said, âIf you like it, I can cook it every day. Thereâs just no thick broad-bean sauce. If we stir-fry it with some thick broad-bean sauce, the taste will be even better.â
Xiao Yishanâs determined face showed confusion, âYueâer, what is thick broad-bean sauce?â
âItâs a sauce made from beans.â Xiao Yuchuan chimed in, âI knew some people who used to make it when I was selling goods.â
âYes.â Qingyue nodded.
Yuchuan said, âMy wife, Iâll go buy some thick broad-bean sauce another day.â
âWhy do you need to go?â She laughed, âIâll just buy it on my way to town tomorrow.â
âThatâs true.â Xiao Yuchuan ate his rice with stir-fried pork intestine and asked, âMy wife, how did you learn to cook pig intestines so deliciously?â
She had been asked a similar question before. âAs I said, I figured it out myself.â
âMy wife, you are so siâ¦â Realizing that she didnât like such compliments and seeing her stern look, Xiao Yuchuan changed his words with a smile, âMy wife is so clever.â
She nodded, âIf Iâm not smart, how can I show how dumb you are?â
Xiao Yuchuan chuckled, âMy wife, if I, your husband, am dumb, then there are no clever people in the world.â
âWho compliments themselves like that?â she couldnât help but roll her eyes.
âNow youâve seen it.â 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, âMy wife, do as you said and cook pork intestine tomorrow.â
She said, âYouâve seen how to cook it, everyone can do it. If you want to eat it, feel free to cook it yourself.â
âOh.â He couldnât bear for his wife to work too hard, âIâm just afraid that my cooking wonât be as delicious as yours.â
âThe same method, just control the heat a bit, and it will be similar.â 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 wouldnât let Su Qingyue help at all.
