At four o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Damao returned to the courtyard house and came to the Chen family. Chen Yu was playing with a kitchen knife. His knife skills were smooth and untraceable. Zhou Feng and Lou Xiao'e were helping to wash the vegetables.
When Xu Damao saw Chen Yu's skillful movements, he could not help but be a little shocked. Moreover, after the dishes were stir-fried, the alluring fragrance spread throughout the entire courtyard.
"Little Yu, did you do all this?"
Xu Damao was a little shocked when he saw the dishes that were cooked.
Before Chen Yu could speak, Lou Xiao'e said,""Of course it was Xiao Yu. With Xiao Yu's culinary skills, she could directly become a chef.”
"Oh my, this is amazing. Little Yu, you're only eleven years old this year. Your culinary skills are way better than Silly Zhu's.”Xu Damao said sincerely.
He had eaten Silly Zhu's dishes a few times, and they were all eaten together with the leader. However, the aroma was completely rubbish compared to Chen Yu's dishes.
Chen Yu smiled and said,"I read some recipes in the library and thought about it myself."”
Chen Yu fried the last dish of braised pork and placed it on a plate. Then, he took out the steamed fish that weighed more than ten catties from the steamer.
Including the dumplings, there were a total of eight dishes: roast duck, spicy chicken, braised pork, steamed fish, stewed beef with potatoes, boiled cabbage, and traditional Chinese medicine beef marrow soup.
Finally, Chen Yu took out a bottle of Moutai.
When Xu Damao saw the Maotai, he could not help but be stunned.
"Xiao Yu, you can get this thing too? This is too precious. Even if you have money, you might not be able to buy it.”
"I saw this when I went to Pigeon City the day before yesterday and bought it back.”Chen Yu said with a smile.
"Xiao Yu, how old are you? You're already drinking." Zhou Feng said.”
"Mom, it's just a gesture. Isn't Uncle Damao and Aunt Xiao'e here? It won't look good without wine during the New Year's Eve dinner.”
"Little Yu is right. It's fine to drink a little.”Xu Damao said with a smile.
"Mom, can we eat now?" Qing 'Er looked at the dishes on the table and drooled. The dishes that her brother cooked today were much more fragrant than the ones before.
"Sure, eat." Zhou Feng said with a smile.
"Wait, Qing Er, Xiao Yu, these are the New Year red packets that your Uncle Damao and I gave you.”
Lou Xiao'e took out two red packets and handed them to Chen Yu and her sister.
"Thank you, Little Aunt E, Uncle Damao." Chen Yu and Qing 'Er said politely and did not refuse.
They each poured a glass of Maotai, and Qing 'er replaced it with Arctic Ocean soda.
Xu Damao stood up and toasted everyone, and the New Year's Eve dinner began.
Little Fury was at the side, happily munching on a big drumstick. There was also a half-eaten big apple beside it.
After Xu Damao ate Chen Yu's dishes, he was shocked. He swore that he had never eaten such delicious dishes in his life.
He decided in his heart that he had to build a good relationship with Chen Yu. At such a young age, not only was his medical skills amazing, but he also had such high culinary skills. He was obviously a genius.
He was already so powerful at such a young age. When he grew up, he would definitely be a figure.
The Jia family was not as warm as Chen Yu's family.
Qin Huairu and her two daughters, Yi Zhonghai and his wife, and the deaf old lady with a crippled leg were sitting together. Other than some dumplings, there were only a few dishes left on the table. The only meat dish was a plate of fried pork, which Aunt Yi had specially bought from Pigeon Market today. It had already gone bad.
The chef was Qin Huairu. Her culinary skills were not that great, and she could barely eat it. However, the Deaf Grandmother Qi threw a tantrum again, saying that Qin Huairu's cooking tasted terrible and that there was no meat at all. She threw her chopsticks aside halfway through her meal and stopped eating.
Qin Huairu and Yi Zhonghai cursed the Deaf old lady several times in their hearts. This old lady was crippled now, yet she was still so picky.
"Old Madam, it's the new year. Don't lose your temper. You should be happy during the new year.”Qin Huairu suppressed her anger and said.
"What are you happy about? Look at other families. Which family eats so poorly during the New Year? Go and look at those bastards from the Chen family. The fragrance just now came from the Chen family. What are you guys giving me to eat? Even pigs aren't willing to eat it."
"Old Madam, please understand. Didn't the rats ruin the New Year's goods at home last night? It's already good enough to have this food.”Yi Zhonghai said unhappily.
"Yi Zhonghai, is this how you talk to me? Do you think I'm a burden now that my leg is broken? Unfilial, unfilial."
The Deaf Old Lady began to throw a tantrum.
Now, she was really afraid that Yi Zhonghai and Wang Guihua wouldn't take care of her in her old age. Her heart had become more sensitive than before.
Therefore, her true nature was exposed.
Yi Zhonghai and Aunt Yi were having a headache. The deaf old lady had become an old shrew. It would be fine if she lived for a day or two, but it would not be a problem for the old lady to live for a few more years. Were they going to have to serve such a burden in the future?
It seemed that he had to think of a way. Otherwise, he would really not be able to live like this.
Qin Huairu was thinking that she shouldn't put all her eggs in one basket. Silly Zhu was not back yet. Even if she was back, she didn't know if she could keep her job. She had to think for herself.
After thinking about it, she felt that the only person in the courtyard who could let her suck blood was Xu Damao.
Previously, Xu Damao had always wanted to take advantage of her. She had cheated him of his food several times. She felt that if she gave Xu Damao some benefits, he might be able to help her.
On the Chen family's side, Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e went home after dinner.
Chen Yu also checked Xu Damao's pulse. His body was recovering well. As long as he drank the medicine for another week, he could switch to the second course of treatment.
Xu Damao was very happy. It had been so many years, but he still did not have any children. Now that Chen Yu had given him hope, how could he not be happy?
What he did not know was that Widow Qin had already set her sights on him.
However, Widow Qin would never have thought that Xu Damao would not be able to do anything for the next three months. No matter how charming Qin Huairu was, Xu Damao could only endure it.
Previously, he had taken advantage of Widow Qin purely because he wanted to sleep with her. If he had slept with her, Xu Damao would have felt that way. It was just that he had been deceived by Widow Qin several times and had not been able to sleep with her once.
After Chen Yu and his mother cleaned up the dining table, they saw Little Fury lying on the chair. It was actually drinking half a bottle of Moutai, looking a little drunk.
Chen Yu slapped his forehead. This little fellow was really giving him a headache.
The next morning.
Chen Yu got up early
"Sign in."
"Ding! You have successfully signed in. You have received 10 pieces of high-quality cloth, Carpenter Proficiency, 1 set of Carpenter Tools, and 20 Great Unity.”
Chen Yu was overjoyed. His mother had just gotten a brand new sewing machine and was planning to buy some fabric. In the end, Chen Yu signed in and got it.
Moreover, it was ten bolts of high-quality fabric. One bolt was 90 feet long, which was 30 meters long. Ten bolts were enough to make a lot of clothes. Her mother worked in a textile factory, so making clothes was a piece of cake for her.
Chen Yu planned to design a few clothes for his mother to help make.
Because she had eaten the refresher fruit, her mother, Zhou Feng, was also in high spirits when she woke up in the morning.
Chen Yu's grandparents had passed away a few years ago, so Zhou Feng did not have any relatives, so she did not have to pay a New Year visit.
Now that she was in good health, the family planned to go out and play together.
The three of them had agreed to climb the Great Wall at Badaling.
So, after breakfast, he locked the door and prepared to go out with his bicycle.
When Chen Yu closed the door, he put a small piece of paper in the crack of the door and asked a few bees to monitor the situation in the house.
When the family walked past the courtyard with their bicycles, Yi Zhonghai's eyes flashed with a trace of coldness when he saw Chen Yu's family.
Not long after Chen Yu's family of three and Little Fury left, Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huiru arrived at the Deaf Old Lady's house.
When the Deaf Old Lady saw Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu, she hurriedly said,""Has the Chen family gone out?"
"Yes, the family of three has gone out. Old Madam, what should we do next? Tell me." Yi Zhonghai asked.
Qin Huairu stood at the side with a face full of anticipation. During the New Year's Eve dinner yesterday, the Deaf Grandmother had said that she would definitely find a chance to mess with the Chen family. However, she did not mention anything at that time. Now, she was looking forward to it.
"That little bastard from the Chen family must be sent to prison. Don't worry, I already have an idea.”
As the Deaf Old Lady spoke, she took out a tightly wrapped item from under her pillow. After opening it, it was a jade pendant made of white jade.
On the jade pendant, it was written that it was given by Emperor Qianlong and there were two lifelike dragons carved on it. Yi Zhonghai was a little surprised when he saw the jade pendant and said,"Old Madam, this is your family heirloom.”
The Deaf Old Lady revealed a vicious expression and said,""That's right. This is a jade pendant given by Lord Qianlong back then. Since there's no one in the Chen family, I'll put this in the Chen family's cabinet. When the time comes, I'll say that my family heirloom was stolen by someone. I'll say that it was stolen by the Chen family kid. When the time comes, I'll find it in his house and catch him red-handed.”
