"Alright, Bo! "Zixin has been like this since he was young. This is the rule his master taught him," Huang Lei explained.
" Zixin is indeed a good kid. I won't stand on ceremony then." Huang Bo smiled and sat down.
Chen Zixin sat down and said,"Come, everyone, let's eat!" See if it suits your taste."
" This dish smells good. I can't wait," Huang Bo said with a smile.
I don't care, I'll eat first." As he spoke, Xu Zheng took a big mouthful of noodles and said in surprise,"" These noodles are too delicious. If I didn't see it being made of chicken, I wouldn't have thought that it was made of chicken. It's amazing."
" This noodle is really chewy. This soup is first-class," Huang Bo said as he ate.
" I finally know why Zixin asked for ice water. Look at how elastic this dough is. It's so cute," Huang Lei said as she picked up the dough and started writing.
" This noodle is really delicious. I didn't expect chicken to be made into noodles," He Ji said in satisfaction.
" Zixin, these noodles are really delicious. I regret being away for so long. Your brother is so lucky," Jianing said enviously.
Brother Hu chuckled." Brother, your noodles don't taste right. They taste different from before."
" No, the noodles are so delicious. Why don't they taste the same?" Jianing asked.
" I think this noodle is quite delicious," Reba said as he ate a large piece of noodles.
" Brother Hu, why are these noodles different? What did they taste like before?" Huang Lei asked curiously.
" Why do I feel like I'm missing a few flavors?" Brother Hu asked.
" Yes, we didn't have much time today, so we didn't have a few seasonings and side dishes, so we couldn't make the taste you've eaten before," Chen Zi explained.
" I knew it. It's different from what I used to eat. So you improved it," Brother Hu said with a smile.
" Zixin can improve the cooking method. That's amazing. What kind of cuisine is this, Zixin?" Huang Bo asked curiously.
" This is Sichuan Cuisine. It's also a famous dish," Chen Zixin said.
" Brother, I finally realized what's missing. There's bean paste, black beans, coriander, turnips, celery, caviar, and clear soup. And the most important thing is that there's no fat, right?" Brother Hu asked happily.
" Yes, you're all right. I've trained my tongue. Not bad," Chen Zixin said as he gave her a thumbs up.
Brother Hu chuckled." If I can't train, then I'll have wasted a year's worth of food."
" Then, Zixin, why did you think of improving it today?" Xu Zheng asked curiously.
" Zhengzi, aren't you asking the obvious? Some people don't eat pork," Huang Lei explained.
" Oh, I understand. Zixin is not bad," Xu Zheng said meaningfully.
After Reba found out, he felt a wave of sweetness in his heart. He had specially modified this for her. How blissful!
Xiao Gu and Zi Feng were a little disappointed. Why did they have to eat pork?
The live broadcast room exploded when they saw this scene.
" Wow, how romantic."
" Brother Zixin actually improved it for Reba."
Why haven't I encountered such a situation before?"
“……”。
After a while, Huang Lei and the others put down their bowls and chopsticks and sat on the chairs with happy expressions.
" Today, this meal is too delicious. I'm so satisfied," Xu Zheng said happily.
" Yeah, I didn't expect to be able to eat the dishes of the state banquet," Huang Bo said happily.
" Indeed, how many ordinary people can have?" Huang Lei sighed.
" I'm so envious of Brother Hu. He actually ate so much delicious food behind my back," Jianing said jealously.
Brother Hu smiled and said,"I can't help it, but didn't you eat some later?"
" Hehe, it's also because I did eat some delicious food during those two years," Jianing said happily.
"I said that you two have had enough. I know that you two have eaten a lot of delicious food. There's no need to say it out loud.”Huang Lei laughed angrily.
Brother Hu and Jianing chuckled. Huang Bo asked curiously, Brother Hu, Jianing, you've known Zixin for so long. Which dish do you think is the best?"
" It's not a gamble. You're asking blindly. Which of Zixin's dishes isn't delicious?" Huang Lei said.
" I'm asking which dish left the deepest impression on them," Huang Bo said.
" If you want to say which dish is the most profound, it should be my brother's peony fish slices," Jianing said.
" I think it's Wensi Tofu. That dish is quite well-cooked," Brother Hu said arrogantly.
" Oh, I know those two dishes are indeed amazing and quite accomplished. These two dishes can be described as legendary," Huang Lei explained.
" However, Uncle Zixin didn't expect you to be able to make those two dishes. Impressive," Huang Lei said with admiration.
Chen Zixin smiled and didn't say anything. Huang Bo asked curiously,"" Are there any legends about these two dishes?
" Let me tell you, Wensi Tofu has quite a lot of condiments, and you have to cut the tofu into shreds and cook it in stock. Peony fish fillets are made with peony petals made from green fish fillets and added with various ingredients. When it comes out of the pot, it will be shaped into a peony pattern," Huang Lei explained.
" What Teacher Huang said is true. I just checked on the Internet. These two dishes are quite laborious," He Ji said calmly.
Huang Bo and Xu Zheng looked at Chen Zixin with admiration. Huang Lei asked," Bo, Zhengzi, what have you been up to recently?"
" I just finished filming the movie. I'm busy promoting it now," Xu Zheng said.
" I just finished filming a movie too," Huang Bo said.
" What movie? Which company are you working with?" Huang Lei asked curiously.
" Cooperate with New Domain Group's New Di Media," Huang Bo said.
" Oh, this company. This is a big company. Many film companies in our country want to work with him," Huang Lei said.
" Yes, this company is indeed amazing. It's only been a decade since it developed to this extent. Although it hasn't taken on many movies and TV shows, they're all top-notch." Xu Zheng was convinced.
" Indeed. This company invested in my Lang Ya Board," Brother Hu said.
" Our company also wanted to cooperate with him, but he didn't even look at it. He replied to us that we're not afraid of the price, as long as it's right. Moreover, we don't accept the so-called sissy," Reba sighed.
" This company has quite a personality. It's really amazing," Huang Lei said.
" Oh right, what movie are you filming? Is it a comedy or a drama?" He Jiong asked.
" The film that we're working on together is a comedy called Heartflower Lufang," Huang Bo said.
Chen Zixin muttered in his heart,"The New Domain isn't a holding company that my master left behind for me. Fortunately, those directors don't know that I'm the one holding the shares. It's always been managed by people from the sect. Fortunately, they don't know."
" Alright, let's rest. I'll go cut the watermelon." Huang Lei got up and walked to the kitchen.
Seeing that he was bored, Chen Zixin walked to the side and started sculpting the rosewood that he had brought in the morning.
Chen Zixin asked curiously in the live broadcast room.
" What do you want? You're going to sculpt."
" He's an all-rounder. Why does he know everything?"
" No, is this a human?"
" Everyone, hurry up and look down."
Chen Zixin was focused on carving. His hand speed was very fast, but it was very steady. The carving knife was moving up and down in his hand.
After Huang Lei finished cutting the watermelon, she saw a few people surrounding her. Curious, she went over and saw Chen Zixin carving wood, so she patiently watched.
After about half an hour, Chen Zixin stopped the knife in his hand and nodded in satisfaction when he saw the work in front of him.
Only then did he get up. When he saw everyone surrounding him, he saw everyone's surprised expressions and said," What are you guys doing? Why do you have such expressions? Do I have words on my face?"
The few of them only reacted when they heard Chen Zixin's words.
" No, Zixin, when did you learn this?" Huang Lei asked.
" It's not that, Brother. I'm a little confused right now. You actually know how to sculpt," Brother Hu asked curiously.
" It's not Zixin. I feel like I need to get to know you all over again. You're like a treasure boy," Reba said in admiration.
" Yeah, I want to get to know you again too," Zhao Xiaogu said with a pair of heart-shaped eyes.
" Brother Zixin, you're not human," Zifeng said anxiously.
" What the hell? I'm not human. How can I speak like that?" Chen Zixin's expression darkened.
" No, no, I think you're a god. What else can't you do?" Zifeng waved his hand and said.
" Yes, this sculpture is too beautiful. Look at Sun Wukong's sculpture, it's so majestic. And this Bajie sculpture is so cute," He Jian said.
The live broadcast room was extremely anxious. We also wanted to see it.
Let us see. We want to see it too."
" What kind of sculpture is it? I want to see it too."
I heard it was Zhu Bajie and Sun Wukong."
“………”。
" This sculpture of Monk Sand is so simple-minded, and Tang Sanzang is so solemn." Huang Bo said.
" Zixin, sell this sculpture to me. Just name your price. I won't bargain," Xu Zheng said with a burning gaze.
" Yes, yes, yes. Sell it to me," Huang Bo said quickly.
" Brother, we're brothers. Why don't you give it to me?" Brother Hu said with a smile.
" Brother Hu, don't even think about it. I still want it," Huang Lei interrupted.
"Brother Zixin, why don't you give it to me? "Look, you just happened to carve a cute puppy," Toto said adorably.
" Don't talk, Duoduo. You can't ask your brother for it," Huang Lei said seriously.
" Alright, Uncle Huang. This puppy was meant for Toto. Isn't her zodiac a dog? Come, Toto, take this and wipe the wood off with a tissue." Chen Zixin handed the wooden puppy to Toto.
" Duoduo, thank your brother," Sun Li said with a smile.
" Thank you, Brother Zixin. I'll definitely take good care of it," Toto said with a sweet smile.
" Come, Duoduo, give the wooden carving to Daddy. Daddy will help you wipe the wood shavings," Huang Lei said seductively.
" Hmph, I don't want to. I can do it myself," Toto said with a pout.
" What about the rest of Zixin's?" Jianing asked.
" Teacher Huang Bo, Teacher Xu Zheng, I'll give these four to you guys. You guys can allocate them yourselves. I won't give you any opinions," Chen Zixin said.
" If you didn't give it to us, we wouldn't dare to accept it. Name a price and we'll buy it," Xu Zheng and Huang Bo said.
"Zhengzi, Xiao Bo, you guys can take it! "Since Zixin gave it to you, he won't take any money. He's richer than you," Huang Lei said.
" Thank you, Zixin. I'll give Xu Zheng, Tang Sanzang, and Bajie to you. You two are a perfect match," Huang Bo said.
" What do you mean they're a perfect match for me? Why don't you want these two?" Xu Zheng retorted.
" Didn't you play Bajie before? Also, you're bald. This is practically tailor-made for you," Huang Bo teased.
The few of them burst out laughing. They were indeed a perfect match.
He happened to see the sculpture in the live broadcast room.
" This carving is too good."
" This sculpture is too beautiful. I want it all."
Bajie and Sanzang are indeed a match for Xu Zheng."
“………”。
" Then why don't you want these two? Look at your belly. It's like a pregnant woman," Xu Zheng said sarcastically.
" Tsk, this is called being rich. I don't care, I'm taking it away." As he said that, he took it and put it away.
When Xu Zheng saw that there was no door, he conveniently kept it."
" Alright, come and eat some fruit. This watermelon tastes good," Huang Lei suggested.
" Is that so? I saw you guys fighting over watermelons the other time, so I was curious," Huang Bo said with a smile.
" I'll try it too." Xu Zheng took a piece and started eating.
" Wow, this watermelon is so delicious. It's sweet and delicious, and there's also a fragrance," Xu Zheng said in surprise.
Huang Bo's expression changed when he heard that. However, his eyes lit up. He took another bite and muttered,"" This watermelon is just average and has a high sugar content. If you eat too much, you'll get diabetes. Don't eat it anymore. Let me finish it. I can't let you get diabetes!"
" As if I'd believe you. You're such a bad old man," Xu Zheng said.
" Come, Brother Hu, Jianing, Reba, hurry up and eat the melons. Otherwise, there won't be any left," Huang Lei urged.
" We're here. Stay for a while," Reba and the others said.
" Wait a minute. You guys aren't allowed to eat the hot bar, Little Gu Zifeng. You guys can eat it," Chen Zixin said from behind.
" Why can't we eat? We didn't do anything wrong today," Reba said.
" I forgot that your stomachs are cold and you can't eat cold fruits. You shouldn't eat them," Chen Zixin said seriously.
" Just listen to Zixin and don't eat that Reba," Huang Lei said with concern.
" Then what fruits can Zixin and the others eat?" He Jiong asked with concern.
" Grapes, strawberries, and apples are fine," Chen Zixin said.
" Alright then, I brought some apples. Reba, you guys wait for a while." He Jiong walked into the house and took out a bag of apples from his suitcase. He washed a few and handed them to Reba and the others.
" Here, take it and eat it. This apple is very sweet," He Jiong said.
" Teacher He, this isn't peeled," Little Gu said.
Huang Lei said," Give me the apple. I'll peel it for you." Then, she took out a small fruit knife from the kitchen and began to peel it. After a while, she finished peeling it and handed it to them.
The three of them took the apples and thanked him before eating.
After eating a few pieces of watermelon, Huang Bo asked," Teacher Huang, what are we eating tonight?"
" What do you want to eat? By the way, what dishes have you guys decided on?" Huang Lei asked.
" Then I'll have braised bamboo shoots and sweet and sour pork ribs," Xu Zheng said.
" Then I'll have braised pork with preserved vegetables. I see you have preserved vegetables here," Huang Bo said.
" Alright, I'll cook a few more dishes tonight. We won't transplant the seedlings in the afternoon. Fa Zheng has 500 yuan now. Get the guests to come tomorrow," Huang Lei said with a smile.
Everyone laughed. He Jiong said," It's not one o'clock yet. Let's wash the dishes and rest for a while. We'll go to the market to buy groceries at two or three in the afternoon."
" Come, Zixin, let's drink some tea. Let them do the work." Huang Lei poured a cup of tea and handed it to Chen Zixin.
Chen Zixin took the tea and took a sip. At this moment, Huang Bo walked over and said, Um, Zixin, I don't have anything to do this afternoon. Can we go to your horse farm to play?"
" Mm, that's a good idea," they said.
Chen Zixin smiled." That might disappoint you. The racecourt will be closed for the next few days."
" What happened?" Huang Lei asked curiously.
" That horse track is under maintenance, and all the horses are undergoing a full body checkup. If you want to ride a horse, you'll probably have to wait for a while," Chen Zixin said as he spread his hands.
" Oh, if that's the case, then Zhengzi and I really came at a bad time," Huang Bo said dejectedly.
" Indeed. I'll only come over next time," Xu Zheng said with a sigh.
" No wonder I didn't see you ride a horse today. It turns out that you put it in the stable for maintenance," Reba said with a smile.
Chen Zixin smiled and calmly drank his tea. Huang Lei waved her hand and said," Alright, it's not even one o'clock yet. Is everyone resting or sleeping?"
" Then let's sleep. We'll go shopping later," He Jiong said.
" Uncle Huang, you guys go to sleep. I'm going up the mountain. Tell the director not to follow me. They won't be able to catch up to me," Chen Zixin said to Huang Lei.
"No, brother, why are you going up the mountain?”Brother Hu asked.
" Nothing much. I'm just going up the mountain to take a look. Do you want to go?" Chen Zixin smiled.
" That's not right. You definitely have something to do. Otherwise, you wouldn't have gone up the mountain," Brother Hu said suspiciously.
" Brother, tell me the truth. Otherwise, I have ways to deal with you," Jianing threatened.
" Tsk, Sister, don't threaten me. There's still a way. I'll make sure you can't even grab me with your hands," Chen Zi said disapprovingly.
"Oh, really? "Zifeng, come here," Jianing whispered into Zifeng's ear with a mysterious smile.
Zifeng looked at Chen Zixin with a devilish smile and ran back into the house. Chen Zixin was confused.
Zifeng smiled and walked to Chen Zixin with his hands behind his back." Brother, are you going to tell me? I'll give you a chance. I have a way to deal with you."
Chen Zixin ridiculed," You're just a small brain. What good ideas can you have? I'm not bragging. There's nothing I'm afraid of in this world."
Brother Hu saw what Zifeng was holding and said with a smile,"" Brother, don't make such a big deal out of it. You can't brag so much. Hurry up and say it out. Don't embarrass yourself later."
" Brother, I'm not bragging to you. When have I ever been afraid? I won't say anything. You guys will be so anxious," Chen Zixin said smugly.
"Brother Hu, since Zixin is so stubborn, we can't do anything about it. Large scale service. Huang Lei said loudly.
His younger sister, Zifeng, took out a large stack of test papers from behind him. When Chen Zixin saw the test papers, he broke out in a cold sweat and forced himself to say," Tsk, what's there to be afraid of?"
" Is that so? Don't force yourself. Sister, pass him the test paper," Brother Hu teased.
" Come, brother. Take the test paper. This is the college entrance examination paper. You have to study hard," the younger sister said.
" Here, catch it. I'll throw it over," his sister teased. When Chen Zixin saw the test paper that was thrown over, he quickly scurried to the pergola like a monkey and roared," Brother, I'm not done with you."
Chen Zixin's actions were seen in the live broadcast room.
"D * mn, he's indeed a martial arts practitioner."
This animal is too fast."
" More agile than a monkey."
“………”。
Everyone laughed when they saw Chen Zixin's situation.
" Brother, are you going to tell me or not?" Brother Hu threatened.
" Brother, hurry up and come down. It's uncomfortable up there," Jianing advised.
" I'm happy to buy that if you have money. It's cool up there. Besides, the scenery up here is so good," Chen Zixin said as he sat on the roof.
" Zixin, come down. Put away your test papers. Don't embarrass your brother," Huang Lei advised.
" Zixin, come down. It's dangerous up there," Reba said with concern.
" Alright, I'll go down then. You can't scare me with that," Chen Zixin said.
"Alright, I won't scare you with the test paper. Come down quickly!”Little Gu persuaded.
" Brother Zixin, just come down. I won't scare you anymore," the younger sister said fearfully.
" Alright, put the test papers in the room, and I'll go down," Chen Zixin said to Zifeng.
" I'll bring it into the house now." The younger sister ran into the house and ran out again. Brother, look, there's nothing else. You can come down now."
" Alright, then you guys retreat. I'll come down now," Chen Zixin said to everyone.
Everyone retreated, only to see Chen Zixin doing a handsome-looking side somersault and landing steadily on the ground.
The live broadcast room was blown away by this action.
" This side somersault is too cool."
" This action is amazing."
As expected of Brother Zixin's all-rounder."
“……“。
" Zixin, your movements are so cool. It's so beautiful," Huang Bo said in surprise.
" You can actually flip down from such a high place and control it so well," Xu Zheng said in admiration.
" Zixin, you're indeed skilled in both literature and martial arts," Reba said in admiration.
" Yes, it's indeed impressive," Little Gu praised.
" Brother Zixin, you're amazing. I admire you so much." The younger sister had a fangirl expression on her face.
" Brother, teach me this," Peng Peng said excitedly.
" Brother, who came up with this idea?" Chen Zixin said bitterly.
Brother Hu was about to say something when Jianing glared at him fiercely.
"Alright then! "I was the one who suggested this idea. Who asked you not to tell me?" Brother Hu said firmly.
" Brother, I've cooked for you for so many years, and you treat me like this," Chen Zixin said, pretending to be angry.
" Alright, don't be angry. How about I buy you three catties?" Brother Hu said.
" No, at least five pounds," Chen Zixin threatened.
"Deal, you can tell me now, right?”Brother Hu said.
"Then let's go! "Let's go up the mountain first. You'd better wear long sleeves and long pants," Chen Zixin said.
" Didn't we agree on a deal? Why did you change your mind?" Brother Hu shouted.
" I didn't promise to say that I'd make a deal. I'm just taking revenge on you," Chen Zixin said with a chuckle as he rubbed his nose.
" Hey, you brat, play this trick with me," Brother Hu laughed angrily.
" Then are you going or not? If not, I'm leaving." She was about to leave.
" Go, go, go. I have nothing to do anyway. I want to see what you're up to," Brother Hu said.
" Then let's go together and see what secrets Zixin has," Huang Lei said.
" Since we're going up the mountain, let's change into sneakers. The mountain road is not easy to walk on," He Jiong said with concern.
The few of them nodded and went back to the house to change their shoes. Soon, the group set off for the mountain.
The few of them chatted and laughed from time to time.
The few of them slowly walked up the mountain. The mountain was not high, only about a hundred meters high.
" This mountain is quite quiet and cozy," Reba said.
" It's quite comfortable in the mountains. The air is nice," Little Gu said, enjoying the feeling.
" It's really good. The air is much better than in the city," Xu Zheng said.
" Of course. The water and soil here support people. I really want to retire here," Huang Lei sighed.
" This is indeed a place to retire," Brother Hu said.
" If you want to retire, can't you just move here? The transportation here is convenient anyway," Chen Zixin said with a smile.
" It's not that easy. There are so many things that I can't get away from," He Jiong said with a sigh.
" Alright, don't be so emotional. Zou Zixin, lead the way. Let me see what secrets you have," Huang Lei urged.
Chen Zixin led them to the top of the mountain. In a short while, they had reached the top.
" D * mn, I'm finally here. I'm so tired," Xu Zheng said.
" Look at your belly. You need to exercise. You can't do this," Huang Lei said with a smile.
" I was sweating all the way here," Huang Bo said as he wiped his sweat.
" That's right. I'm sweating all over," He Jiong said.
" We're all sweating," Brother Hu and the others said while panting.
" Look at you guys. You're panting after climbing down the mountain. You need to train," Chen Zixin said speechlessly.
" Do you think everyone is like you? Their bodies are so perverted," Brother Hu complained.
" That's right. Do you think everyone else is like you, with an extraordinary physique?" Jia Ningxiang said, sweating profusely.
" Alright, let's go. I'll bring you to a place," Chen Zixin said with a smile as he walked forward.
Everyone followed Chen Zixin to a large open space. Chen Zixin smiled and said," We're here. You can take a look down the mountain."
When the few of them saw it, they cheered.
" Wow, the scenery is so beautiful. There are so many peach blossoms," Reba said with a smile.
"The scenery is amazing. The entire Taoyuan Village can see it. The entire peach blossom forest surrounded the village." Huang Lei praised.
" Look, you can see our mushroom house from here. It feels so good," Little Gu said.
The live broadcast room was stunned when they saw this scene.
" What a beautiful scenery, a pink ocean."
No, I have to buy tickets."
I want one too. It's so beautiful."
“……”。
" I finally know why Zixin didn't mention it. It's so beautiful here. You can see beautiful peach blossoms and waterfalls. It's like a fairyland." Huang Bo praised.
" No, I'm going to take a photo of this place and post it on my Moments to make them envious," He Jiong said smugly.
" Me too," Reba said.
I'll come too."
“………”。
The few of them began to take pictures crazily. Chen Zixin smiled and didn't say anything. He walked to the wooden house built in the fruit forest and took out a bamboo basket. He picked a few catties of strawberries and apples, washed them, and brought them over.
Huang Lei and the others smiled after taking the photo. He Jiong asked, Zixin, why didn't you take a photo?"
" I see this place every day. Why would I take pictures? Besides, my phone doesn't have a camera function," Chen Zixin said with a smile.
"No way! " Now that cell phones are all smart phones, why didn't you bring your cell phone?" He Jiong asked.
Chen Zixin smiled. He took out his phone from his pocket and showed it to everyone. It was an old-fashioned button-type phone that could only be used to make calls and send text messages.
" No, Zixin, why are you using this phone?" He Jiong asked.
" No wonder you said last time that you don't use your phone much. It's true that you can't use this phone," Reba said in surprise.
" Zixin, I'll call someone to send you the latest cell phone," Brother Hu said quickly.
" Erm, Zixin, I'll get someone to give you a phone. I can't take your gift for free," Xu Zheng said.
Yes, yes, yes. We'll get someone to send it over."
" No, I'll get Mushroom Hut to give you a work phone. You can use it first," He Jiong said.
" Well, thank you for your kind intentions. Besides, a phone is just a communication tool for me. This phone of mine is even more expensive than ten of your phones. It's not even available on the market," Chen Zixin said.
" Isn't this just an old-fashioned phone?" Huang Bo said.
"That's right! "How can it be more expensive than mine?"
Chen Zixin looked around and whispered to everyone,"" This is a military satellite phone. It has signal even deep in the mountains and forests, and it has a long standby time. Do you think it's expensive?"
After hearing this, a few people said in surprise,"This phone is too powerful."
" Then this phone is expensive. I can't compare to it," Huang Lei said.
" This phone is like heaven and earth compared to mine," He Jiong said helplessly.
So don't give me a phone. Besides, I don't really use my phone."
Brother Hu suddenly thought of something and said with a smile,"Brother, can you buy one for me? I'll pay for it."
Huang Lei and the others 'eyes lit up as they looked at Chen Zixin.
Chen Zixin said helplessly," Brother, don't even think about it. This phone can only be used by soldiers. It can't be used for civilian use."
Brother Hu was disappointed when he heard that. Huang Lei and the others also sighed.
" Indeed. How can we use things from the army?" Huang Lei said.
"Alright, let's enjoy the scenery! "They were so envious just now," He Jiong said with a smile.
" Many of us are envious and want to come over," Reba said with a smile.
" Hong Lei wanted to come over and take a look just now," Huang Bo said.
" Why is he here? Isn't he here to ruin the scenery? Look at his long face," Huang Lei said sarcastically.
The few of them burst out laughing. Chen Zixin laughed." Come, everyone, come and eat some fruits!
" Fruit? Where's the fruit here?" Reba said in surprise.
Chen Zixin took out a basket of fruits from his back and said," Come, everyone, let's eat."
" Wow, it's strawberries and apples," Little Gu said in surprise.
" The strawberries are big and red, and so are the apples," Zifeng said.
" Where did you come from if not Zixin? I didn't see you bringing fruits up the mountain," He Jiong asked.
" I planted an orchard on this mountain," Chen Zixin said.
" What? You have an orchard? Brother, you're a rich man," Brother Hu said in surprise.
" It's not Zixin. How many fruits did you plant on the mountain?" Huang Lei asked.
" Yes, there are strawberries, apples, kiwifruits, and waxberries. Only the strawberries and apples are ripe now. The rest are still growing. Eat quickly. I washed them with mountain spring water. They're fresh, sweet, and delicious," Chen Zixin said with a smile.
" Oh my god, Zixin, why do you know everything? You're a genius," Huang Bo said in surprise.
" I realized that Zixin is a treasure trove. Nothing seems to be a problem for him," Xu Zheng said.
" Brother, how many more secrets do you have?" Brother Hu asked.
" Alright, let's eat the fruit first. This fruit is not bad. The entire village likes to come over and pick some when we have nothing to do," Chen Zi urged.
" Then let's try it. We picked up the strawberries and started eating," they said.
" Wow, these strawberries are so delicious. They're so sweet," Reba said with a smile.
" This is the most delicious strawberry I've ever eaten. It even has a nice fragrance," Little Gu said.
" Yes, the strawberries are delicious, but they're not enough," Huang Lei said.
Chen Zixin smiled and said,"Don't just eat strawberries. Eat apples too!"
" How can you eat an apple without peeling it?" Reba said.
" Don't worry, I haven't used any pesticide or hormones. You can eat it without worry," Chen Ziwen said gently.
" Really? Let me try it." Huang Lei picked up the apple and started eating.
" This apple is delicious. It's juicy and sweet," Huang Lei praised.
The few of them quickly ate and praised.
Everyone in the live broadcast room said.
" D * mn, Zixin knows everything."
" He even knows how to grow fruits."
Even I want to marry him. He's simply a Prince Charming."
I don't want you. I'm straight."
“……”。
The director and the others swallowed their saliva as they watched. Chen Zi took a look and said with a smile," Director, if you guys want to eat, go pick them. The tools are all in that wooden house. You guys go ahead." As he spoke, he pointed in the direction.
The director nodded excitedly and called for a few people to run to the orchard.
" No, Zixin, you're too generous. You should negotiate with them," Huang Lei said.
" That's right. We should talk to them," He Jiong said.
" It's fine. Eat as much as you want. There's no need to be so calculative," Chen Zi said as he waved his hand.
At this moment, the director and the others carried a large basket of fruits and smiled at Chen Zixin." Thank you, Zixin. We'll bring this fruit back for dinner."
" Director Chen, you're too thick-skinned. You've emptied the fruits, right?" Huang Lei said.
Even director, you're too thick-skinned."
"Yeah."
"It's fine. There are plenty of fruits," said Chen Zixin with a smile. Later, you guys can pick some and bring them back to make a fruit platter."
The few of them nodded excitedly.
Erm, Zixin, do you think I can bring some home for my family?" Xu Zheng asked.
" Can I? Huang Bo said.
" Sure, but you guys can come pick them tomorrow morning when you leave. After all, they're fresher," Chen Zixin said.
"Brother, can I bring some back?”Brother Hu said.
" Isn't that obvious? I don't have any objections even if you finish it." Auntie Sun, you guys should bring some back tomorrow," Chen Zixin said speechlessly.
The few of them smiled and went to pick some fruits to go back. Just as they were walking down the mountain, they heard a chicken crow.
" Eh, why are there chickens crowing here? I don't see anyone rearing them," they asked curiously.
" Yeah, I didn't see it either," Reba said as he looked around.
" Zixin, I heard the sound coming from somewhere nearby," Little Gu asked.
" Girls, that's the cry of a pheasant. There must be pheasants in the mountains, but they're very close to us," Huang Lei said.
" Pheasant. I heard that it's hard to catch, but pheasant meat is very delicious," He Ji said.
" I haven't eaten for a long time either. It's a pity that I didn't bring any capturing tools," Huang Lei said with a sigh.
" This one is so close to us. It's just a few meters away," He Jiong said doubtfully.
" Who said you need tools to catch pheasants? Just wait," Chen Zixin said.
" Brother, throw a rock and alert the enemy." As he spoke, Chen Zixin pointed in the direction where the pheasant was hiding.
When Brother Hu heard this, he excitedly found a few stones and threw them over. A few pheasants quickly flew up. At this moment, there was a sound of air being torn. Two throwing knives quickly hit the two pheasants. Chen Zi excitedly picked up the two pheasants.
" Brother, we can have extra food tonight," Chen Zi said happily.
Brother Hu looked at the pheasant and drooled excitedly.
The people in the live broadcast room were dumbfounded.
" D * mn, is this a throwing knife?"
" This throwing knife is too powerful."
" This capturing method is too perverse."
It's simply Little Chen's Flying Dagger."
“……”。
Chen Zixin took the throwing knife down and wiped it with grass. He placed it on the throwing knife bag at his waist. When he saw Huang Lei and the others, he asked with a dumbfounded expression," Why do you guys have such expressions? Is there something wrong?"
The few of them came back to their senses. Huang Lei said," Zixin, your throwing knives are too godly. You caught the wild chicken just like that."
" Really, my mind is still blank," He Jiong said in a daze.
" Zixin, you're too amazing. I realized that you're an otherworldly expert."
" Brother Zixin, you still carry a throwing knife with you. Is this your personal habit?
Yeah, I've been used to this knife since I was young."
Brother, teach me, I'll learn."
" No, why are you learning this?"
I can show it off."
" That's even more so. You're not learning this to show off. What if you hurt someone?"
" That's right. Peng Peng, if you hurt someone, Zixin will be implicated."
" Here, take the pheasant. We'll have more food when we go back." As he spoke, Chen Zixin handed the pheasant to Peng Peng.
" That's good. We can have extra food today," Huang Lei said with a smile.
" I haven't eaten for a long time," Brother Hu said.
" Then let's go back and buy some groceries. There's pheasant meat to eat today."
" Yeah, I didn't expect to eat wild game in the mushroom house," Xu Zheng said happily.
" These two add up to more than ten catties. It's enough for us to eat," Huang Bo said.
The few of them walked to the mushroom house with a smile and sat in the pavilion, drinking tea and chatting.
At this moment, the director walked over and said," The water pipe has been fixed, and the road surface is being repaired now. We should be able to walk again at night. The guests can come over tomorrow as usual."
Everyone nodded. Huang Bo said," Then we can leave tomorrow morning."
Indeed, I'm leaving tomorrow. I can't bear to leave."
Alright, I'll go back with Toto tomorrow."
Brother, I'll be going back with your sister tomorrow morning. I can't bear to leave you."
Are you reluctant to part with me or my cooking?"
Child, what nonsense are you spouting? But your brother and sister really can't bear to part with you."
Alright, come over when you're free. I'm not running away. I'll stay here."
" Then it's a deal. Brother and your sister will come over if you have nothing to do."
Then, Zixin, Auntie Sun will bring Duoduo over when she's free. You can't be annoyed."
Don't worry, I'm more than happy that you're here. But next time, you have to bring vegetables. I don't have that many vegetables.
The few of them laughed when they heard that. Huang Lei smiled and said," Alright, it's almost three o'clock. Teacher He, bring them to buy groceries. I'll help out at home."
" Alright then, but no one helped me bargain," He Jiong said.
" There are a few women. I'm afraid that no one will bargain. That brother will go with Peng Peng. It just so happens that you guys haven't seen this market before. Uncle and I will be busy at home," Chen Zixin said.
"Then Teacher He, you guys go ahead! "Huang Bo and I will stay behind to help," Xu Zheng said.
" Alright then. What vegetables do you want to eat? We'll go to the market to buy them, but we have to be frugal," He Ji said as he looked at the money.
" Teacher He, wait a moment. I have something to tell you," Huang Bo whispered into He Jiong's ear.
He Jiong expressed that he understood and drove the few of them to the market.
" Zixin, what should we do with these two pheasants? Uncle has never cooked pheasant meat before," Huang Lei said.
"How about this? I'll use the pheasant to make medicinal soup for Reba and the others to recuperate. I'll make pheasant stewed with potatoes and paste some corn cakes on the rest. Uncle Huang, you can make the rest!”,Chen Zixin said.
" This is good. Stewed pheasant with potatoes and corn pancakes. This is good."
" Zixin isn't bad. He actually thought of making herbal dishes for Reba and the others," Huang Bo said.
Chen Zixin smiled and asked Huang Lei,"Uncle Huang, do the mushroom houses have potatoes and cornmeal?"
" We don't have these two. I'll call Teacher He to buy some." As she spoke, she went to call He Jiong.
He Jiong and the others were shopping in the market. He Jiong saw Huang Lei on the phone and asked," Hello, Teacher Huang, is there anything you need to buy?"
On the other end of the phone, Huang Lei explained the situation. He Jiong hung up the phone after hearing that.
" Teacher He, what happened? What did Teacher Huang say on the phone?" Reba asked curiously.
" He wants us to buy some potatoes and cornflour. Zixin needs them," He Jiong said.
" Oh, I know Zixin definitely wants to make that dish," Brother Hu said with a smile.
" I know, it's pheasant stewed with potatoes. Add some cornbread in the pot and boil it with the soup. It's very delicious," Jianing said, swallowing his saliva.
" Oh, is that so? I can eat Zixin's new dishes again tonight. That's great."
" Let's go, let's go. Let's go back and help after we're done."
"Teacher He, you guys go buy it first! Sister Xiaogu and I will buy something else,"Reba said.
" What do you want to buy? Why are you carrying us?"
"Sister Xiaogu and I saw people buying oranges and braised beef tripe. "Let's buy some for him," Reba said.
" Alright, you guys go ahead. Take some money," He Jiong said.
" There's no need for that. We have money on us." Little Gu and Reba Zifeng ran over.
Jianing looked pleased and said,"This brother of mine is quite a peach blossom. He's attracted all three girls."
" But this kid is so stubborn," Brother Hu complained.
" Alright, let's talk about this later. Let's go buy groceries first," Sun Li said.
The few of them nodded and started to buy vegetables at the market.
Inside the mushroom house, Chen Zixin was using yellow mud, cement, and bricks to quickly build a three-eyed clay stove. After a while, the earthen stove was set up. Chen Zixin looked at Huang Lei who was dealing with the pheasant and said," Uncle, you guys are really unlucky. You don't even have a gas stove. I have to build a stove myself to cook the soup, but you guys can actually endure it."
" Stop talking, Zixin. It's not like the director's team has been detaining you for a day or two. I've been looking forward to it for a long time, but it didn't work," Huang Lei said as she dealt with the pheasant.
No, you can't go online to buy things yourself."
" I'll have to ask Mr. He about this. After all, he's the one in charge of the mushroom house. But you're quite good at cooking," Huang Lei said with a smile.
" What are the two of you talking about? Zhengzi and I heard it the moment we entered the house." Huang Bo and Xu Zheng came back to pick vegetables.
" Zixin is complaining that the director doesn't have a gas stove. He's the only one who has a stove," Huang Lei said.
" Oh, so that's what happened. Let me take a look at Zixin's cooking stove. I'll evaluate it," Huang Bo said as he put down the food in his hand.
" Is that so? I'll come and take a look too." Xu Zheng walked into the courtyard.
" This stove is not bad. It can cook three pots. Zixin is amazing," Huang Bo said in admiration.
" I found out that Zixin knows everything. This stove is not bad, and Huang Lei's is good. Look, there's a shed above, so you don't have to sweat in the kitchen," Xu Zheng said.
Three-Eyed Stove commented in the live broadcast room.
" D * mn, Zixin knows everything."
This stove is not bad. It's even tiled."
He's a good hand."
“………”。
Chen Zixin washed his hands and said,"That stove needs to be heated. Who's going to do it?"
" Let me do that Zixin. I've cooked it before. It's just drying the stove. I'm familiar with this," Huang Bo said.
" Alright, you start the fire. I'll go chop the wood," Xu Zheng said.
" Oh, the sun rose from the west today. Zhengzi is taking the initiative to work," Huang Lei said with a smile.
" Isn't the sun in the west now? Don't give me such a persona. I can eat Zixin's cooking if I chop wood, understand?" Xu Zheng said.
" I was wondering why Zhengzi changed. So that's the reason," Huang Bo said with a smile.
" I'm not talking to you guys. I'm chopping the wood. Hurry up and start the fire. Huang Lei, hurry up and wash the vegetables," Xu Zheng instructed.
Chen Zixin smiled." I'll go back and get some herbs. You guys go ahead." He then ran back.
" This child is really not bad. He knows everything and is an optimistic person," Huang Bo said.
" Yeah, there's no choice. He's acting like this because he's feeling depressed."
" This child is very proud. Alright, hurry up and get to work. She'll be back after buying some groceries," Huang Lei said.
Chen Zixin brought a bag of herbs from home and placed it in the kitchen. He said to Huang Lei," Uncle, are you done washing the pheasants? I'll deal with them."
" Alright, here you go. Do you want to make soup or potato stewed chicken first?" Huang Lei asked as she handed the pheasant to Chen Zixin.
" Let's stew the soup first. After all, it'll take a long time. I'll blanch the pheasant in the pot to remove the fishy smell." As he spoke, he took out a knife and quickly chopped a pheasant into small pieces. Then, he cut some ginger slices and pheasant meat into the pot and added them to the water to boil.
Huang Lei asked," Here, let me help you light the fire. Oh right, Zixin, is this soup easy to make? Does it have any effects?"
"This soup is easy to make. The wild chicken meat is sweet, sour, and warm in nature. When it enters the heart and stomach meridians, it has the effect of replenishing the vital energy, strengthening the spleen, and stopping diarrhea.
"It's suitable for the general population, but it can't be used for hemorrhoids and scabies," Chen Zixin explained.
" I see. This soup is quite effective," Huang Lei said.
Chen Zixin smiled and opened the lid. He saw that the water had also boiled. After processing the chicken, he said to Huang Lei, Uncle Huang, you can put out the fire now. Save this water for the other pheasant. I'm going to make some soup now. Do you want to take a look?
Alright, I'll see if I can make it for your Auntie Sun and the others in the future." Huang Lei said with a smile.
Chen Zixin took out a clay pot, fished out the chicken, and dried it before placing it into the clay pot. He then opened the medicine bag and poured in ginseng, wolfberries, and dates. He added cold water and covered the lid. He placed the clay pot on the stove that Huang Bo had already cooked and said to Huang Bo, Teacher Huang Bo, I'll burn it. This needs to be controlled, so I'll burn it."
Huang Bo stood up and said,"Alright, you cook it. After all, I've never made medicinal cuisine before."
Chen Zixin sat down and started the fire. Huang Lei then asked," That Zixin, I saw that the quality of your ginseng wasn't bad just now. It's about ten to twenty years old, right?"
" Yes, it's 20 years old. After all, they need to recuperate now and can't use strong medicine. Why don't I pour that hundred-year-old ginseng in?" Chen Zixin said.
" You still have a hundred-year-old ginseng. This must be very expensive," Xu Zheng suddenly said.
" It's very expensive. Ginseng is sold by the gram," Huang Lei said.
" Zixin, where did you get that ginseng? I'll buy one too," Huang Bo asked.
" Back then, I roamed the martial world with my master and dug it up in the deep mountains and forests of Northeast China," Chen Zixin explained.
" That's true. After all, the northeast is rich in ginseng," Huang Lei said.
" A hundred-year-old ginseng can only be found by luck," Huang Bo said.
As they were talking, the mushroom house's purchasing team drove back. He Jiong said loudly, Teacher Huang, we're back."
Huang Lei turned her head and saw a few people carrying bags. She asked, Did you guys spend all your money? Don't you know how hard it is to earn money?"
Huang Bo also saw it." How much did you guys buy? This is enough for two meals, right?"
"How much did you spend?" Xu Zheng asked.
Reba smiled and said,"We only spent 100 yuan today."
" You bought so much for 100 yuan? Who are you trying to fool?!" Huang Lei said in surprise.
He Jiong said,"It's true. Other than the few of us who spent money on the dishes, the beef and mutton were given to us by others."
" Who gave it to you? Do you have relatives here?" Huang Bo asked curiously.
"Those are the uncles and aunties who sell vegetables in Taoyuan Village. If we didn't stop them, they would have given more," Toto said excitedly.
" Why? Is it because you're celebrities?" Xu Zheng asked curiously.
" Mr. Xu, the market is a joint market of several villages nearby. Celebrities don't matter at all. They're only doing it for Zixin's sake," Little Gu said.
" For Zixin's sake, why am I getting more and more confused?" Xu Zheng scratched his head and said.
" You guys don't know how influential Zixin and his master are in this area. Those vegetable vendors know that Jianing and I are his sisters, and Sister Li is his aunt, so they gave us five catties of beef and five catties of mutton each. We didn't even accept money," Brother Hu explained.
" Oh my god, Zixin's influence is so great that he can get a free meal," Xu Zheng said.
" Then, Zixin, do you usually get gifts when you buy groceries?" Huang Bo asked curiously.
" How is that possible? It's all the staff at the horse farm who go to buy. I'll get it from there. I can't go to the market," Chen Zixin said.
" Teacher He, tell the director to stop using my name to buy vegetables at the market. It's not easy for the villagers to sell vegetables," Chen Zixin said seriously.
He Jiong went to explain the situation to the director.
" Alright, let me see what you bought. There are ribs, bamboo shoots, potatoes, cornmeal, tofu, and pork. What's this?" Huang Lei pointed at the bags in Reba Xiaogu's hands and asked.
" These are oranges and tripes for Zixin. Don't he like them the most?" Reba pouted.
"Oh, Zixin isn't bad! " Even I don't have this kind of treatment." Huang Lei glanced at Chen Zixin, who was stewing soup.
When the live-stream heard this, they started commenting.
" Wow, I bought it especially for Zixin. I'm so happy."
Reba and the others are good, and Zixin is too good."
" Indeed. Unfortunately, Zixin didn't react."
“………”。
" How about this, stir-fry some braised bamboo shoots, sweet and sour pork ribs, braised pork with preserved vegetables, and two pheasants. I'll make a vegetable dish, and then put the beef and mutton in the fridge," Huang Lei said.
The few of them nodded and Reba said," Teacher Huang, where's Zixin? I just heard his voice. Where is he?" Reba looked around.
" I'll make herbal dishes for you guys at the newly built stove." Huang Lei pointed at Chen Zixin, who was in the courtyard.
Reba was touched when he heard that." Make me a herbal dish again. I'm so happy."
Xiao Gu and Zi Feng had the same reaction.
Huang Lei smiled when she saw their reactions. Stop looking. If you keep looking, you'll drool."
Reba and the others 'faces quickly turned red as they turned around.
At this moment, Teacher He came over and asked,"Teacher Huang, let's cook now. I'll cook the rice first."
" Alright, I'll handle the vegetables. Get a few people over to help," Huang Lei shouted.
Sun Li and the others came over and said,"What can I do for you?"
" Um, wash the vegetables. Which one of you knows how to make dough?" Huang Lei said.
I don't know how to." Reba said,
" I'll eat." Little Gu said.
"Me too." Zi Feng said.
" I knew you guys wouldn't know how to cook. You guys wash the vegetables," Huang Lei said.
Reba and the others smiled embarrassedly and went to wash the vegetables.
Brother Hu, do you know how to do it?"
" I don't know how to. I know how to eat. Every time, it's Zixin who makes noodles. I'll watch from the side," Brother Hu said disapprovingly.
" I don't even know what to say about you. What kind of kindness did you accumulate in your past life to have such a younger brother who cooks for you every day?" Huang Lei said enviously.
" Indeed, I've never met such a good brother. Why don't I acknowledge Zixin as my brother?" Huang Bo suddenly said.
" If you acknowledge a younger brother, isn't that a generation lower than Huang Lei?" Xu Zheng reminded her.
" Even if he doesn't admit it, he's still a few generations younger than me. I'm a few years older than him," Huang Lei said deliberately.
" Go away, go away. There's no such thing in the entertainment industry. It has nothing to do with you," Huang Bo said.
Brother Hu smiled and said,"Teacher Huang Bo, I'm afraid you won't be able to recognize Zixin as your younger brother. Back then, Jianing and I took him to a friend's place for dinner. I had good intentions and wanted him to get to know more people, but one of them insisted that he call him brother. He kicked that person against the wall, scaring Jianing and me silly."
"After the gathering ended, when I got home, I asked him why he had such a big reaction. I only have one master, one uncle, one aunt, one brother, and one sister in my life. I can't call anyone my brother."
Jianing also nodded."That's true. Zixin did say that, but we didn't know that Sister Li and Teacher Huang Lei knew each other, so we didn't ask Zixin about it."
Huang Bo nodded and said,"Fortunately, you said it, or else I would have
Don't let him kick you to the wall."
" Not really. After all, Zixin wouldn't do anything to someone he's familiar with unless that person isn't close to him," Jianing said.
" Then, Brother Zixin, why did you react like that? Isn't it the same in the entertainment industry? Men call you brother and women call you sister," Zifeng asked.
" Daughter, you haven't experienced what happened to your brother Zixin, so you don't understand. He said that because he treats us as family. It might be his subconscious," Huang Lei explained.
" Alright, let's stop chatting. Hurry up and cook. I still want to watch Zixin play tonight. I wonder what song Zixin will play tonight," Sun Li said with a smile.
" Yes, yes, yes. I still want to play chess with him," Huang Bo said.
" You still need to do 50 push-ups," Xu Zheng reminded him.
" It's just 50 pieces of cake," Huang Bo said smugly.
Huang Lei glanced at Huang Bo and knew that he was forcing a smile. Then let's start cooking. Come, everyone, let's do it together. I'll go and mix the cornflour."
" Come, come, come. Today, I'll show you what I can do. I'll try out the new ones that Zi Xin built," Xu Zheng said.
" That new stove was built by Zixin. Oh my god, this stove is even more beautiful than Teacher Huang's," He Jiong said in surprise.
This brother of mine is too good at cooking."
Indeed, there's nothing he can't do."
He's simply a genius."
" What dish are you going to cook with that tofu?" Xu Zheng asked.
" That's what I want to eat. I want to eat Mapo Tofu," Reba said.
" Reba, have you forgotten that you can't eat anything too spicy?" Huang Lei said to the noodles.
" Then how do you cook this tofu? How can it taste good?" Reba asked.
" I'll ask Zi Xin about this. After all, you're still in the stage of nourishing your stomach. It's tasteless to cook without chili," Huang Lei said.
At this moment, Chen Zixin walked into the kitchen. Huang Lei saw him and asked," Zixin, how do you make tofu? They can't eat spicy food."
" Then make them tofu and egg soup. This doesn't need chili," Chen Zixin said.
Alright, I'll do this. What are you doing now? Aren't you making soup? Huang Lei asked.
" The soup is ready. You just need to keep it warm. I've already put out the fire. I'll make another pheasant now," Chen Zixin said.
" Alright then, I'm going to do it too. It's almost six o'clock, and it's getting late. I've already prepared the potatoes and cornmeal. You can make them now. I'll go outside and make the other dishes," Huang Lei said.
" Why are you going outside? Isn't there a pot in the house?" Chen Zi asked curiously.
I'm afraid I can't help but drool. Alright, hurry up and do it!" Huang Lei then went out to cook.
Xu Zheng was sitting at the table. When he saw Huang Lei, he said," Why did you come out to cook?
" I'm afraid I can't stand the fragrance in the house, so I came out to cook," Huang Lei said with a smile.
He Jiong and the others also laughed out loud. Huang Lei asked, Oh right, I made a few dishes."
" I made braised bamboo shoots, and Huang Bo made braised pork with preserved vegetables," Xu Zheng said.
" Alright then. I'll make the sweet and sour pork ribs. I'll also make the tofu and egg soup, the vegetables with oyster sauce, and the two pheasants that Zixin made. It's enough," Huang Lei said.
" Teacher He, go wash the fruits and make a fruit platter," Huang Lei said.
He Jiong replied and went to prepare. Huang Lei continued," Reba, Xiaogu, clean up the table. We can eat in a while. Peng Peng, go help your Brother Zixin light the fire. There's Huang Bo here."
The few of them began to move. Chen Zixin had already started a fire in the kitchen and was blanching the pheasant meat. Peng Peng immediately sat down and started the fire when he saw it.
Then, Chen Zixin poured away the blood, then started to stir-fry the pheasant with oil. He poured the potatoes and other ingredients into the pot, added water, and covered the lid, waiting for the soup to boil.
Soon, the fragrance spread to the courtyard and everyone smelled it.
Mmm, it smells so good. This pheasant meat smells so good." Reba said,
I drool just by smelling it." Little Gu said.
" Zixin's cooking smells so good. I'm going to have a good drink tonight," Xu Zheng said while looking at the sky.
Huang Bo swallowed his saliva." I didn't expect to be able to eat three meals of the national banquet's chef's dishes at the mushroom house. I have to get drunk tonight."
" Indeed, not everyone can be as lucky as Brother Hu and Jianing when it comes to cooking for a national banquet," He Jiong said enviously.
" So, didn't I tell you? I don't know how these two managed to get to know Zixin in their past lives," Huang Lei sighed.
Brother Hu and Jianing also smiled and did not say anything. Sun Li smiled and said," We're not bad either. Zixin gave us wine, tea leaves, and fruits again."
" Mommy still has the Smiling Proud in the World and the wood carving that Brother gave her," Toto reminded her.
" Yes, yes, yes. I can even hear nice music." Sun Li smiled.
" Sun Li, what tea leaves did the scholar give you just now? Can't you buy any?" Xu Zheng asked curiously.
" Zixin's tea leaves aren't available on the market. They taste really good. I'll brew a pot for you guys tonight. I can't bear to drink it even if I tell you. I only took it out today because you guys came," Huang Lei said.
" Oh, really? I'm interested," Xu Zheng said.
" Take out your bottle of wine tonight. Don't let Huang Lei suffer," Huang Bo said.
" Alright, I know. It's just wine. Take it," Xu Zheng said indifferently.
