Back to 2001

Early in the morning, Chen Jianghe drove to the largest farmer's market in Yuncheng County.

A live chicken, five catties of pork ribs, and a big Yellow River carp.

Plus various seasonings of pepper star anise and cinnamon, it only cost more than 80 yuan in total.

I have to say that the prices in small counties in this era are still very close to the people.

However, the types of vegetables are relatively scarce, basically only the most common vegetables such as cabbage, radish, potato and tomato.

Chen Jianghe bought a lot of vegetables for a few dollars.

Condiments like onion, ginger and garlic were given to him by the vegetable stall owner without asking for money.

Back home, as soon as Chen Jianghe entered the house, he heard Lin Han's voice coming from the room.

Just after 9 o'clock, Zhong Linhan came over, sitting in the living room talking and laughing with Tang Wan's family.

Li Fengxia had already reconciled the noodles early in the morning.

If the sliced ​​noodles want to be delicious, the noodles must be softer and the proofing time should be longer.

She also worked hard today, and she must display the best noodle cutting technique.

Hearing movement in the yard, everyone in the house knew that Chen Jianghe had returned from shopping for vegetables, and greeted him with a smile.

"You guys sit in the room first, I will be the chef today."

Chen Jianghe greeted him with a smile, and went into the kitchen with his things.

"Brother Chen, you are going to cook by yourself today!"

Lin Han was quite surprised.

She never thought that such an outstanding man like Chen Jianghe could cook!

And looking at this posture, it's not just cooking a few home-cooked dishes, but being proficient in cooking fish and stewed meat!

"The meat stewed by Jianghe is delicious."

Tang Wan couldn't help but praised: "I haven't eaten his stewed meat in the past few days when I go home, and I'm a bit greedy."

"Sister-in-law, you are so happy..."

Lin Han looked at Logan enviously.

To be able to marry a good man like Chen Jianghe, who can live in the living room and the kitchen, is really a blessing in eight lifetimes!

"Xiao Wan, why don't you go to the kitchen and beat Jiang He up!"

Li Fengxia urged from the side.

"Understood, Mom! You love your precious son-in-law too much, for fear that he will be tired..."

Logan pouted and entered the kitchen.

"Auntie, I'm going to help too."

Lin Han couldn't wait to follow in.

Fortunately, the kitchen is relatively spacious, and it doesn't look crowded at all when three people are busy in it.

Tang Jianguo, who was at the side, saw this lively scene, and felt relieved: "Our daughter and son-in-law are lucky to have such a good boss."

"Let's go back to the house, don't just stand here and watch the excitement."

Li Fengxia greeted Tang Jianguo, and the two returned to the house.

"Jianguo... I always feel that the relationship between this female boss and our son-in-law is a bit unusual..."

Li Fengxia hesitated for a while, and couldn't help expressing the doubts in her heart.

"Your brain, you like to think about it when you have nothing to do all day long!"

Tang Jianguo said with a sullen face: "I think she is a very nice little girl, she speaks and acts openly, don't always think of people as bad, okay?"

After being reprimanded, Li Fengxia said aggrievedly: "I just said that casually, the main reason is that our son-in-law is too good, I'm afraid that others will think about it..."

Tang Jianguo said thoughtfully: "Excellence is indeed excellence, and I have been thinking about it these days. Why has my son-in-law changed so much in the past two years!"

Li Fengxia covered her mouth and snickered, "Isn't that how well your spoiled baby girl trained you?"

Tang Jianguo snorted dissatisfied: "I think our son-in-law is good-natured. We have been together for more than 20 years. Why didn't you teach me?"

Li Fengxia smiled and mocked: "Daughter follows father, don't you also teach me to be submissive?"

Tang Jianguo looked embarrassed, and quickly lowered his voice: "Slow down, what kind of words will the children hear if such words are heard!"

Li Fengxia twitched her lips and said with a smile: "Now you know it's embarrassing, but you dragged me to the bathroom the night before...why don't you know it's embarrassing?"

Tang Jianguo was completely speechless: "Isn't it just because my leg was broken for two months... Forget it, I can't talk to you, I'm too lazy to tell you!"

After he finished speaking, he turned on the TV and watched it on his own.

At this time, the three people in the kitchen were very busy.

Chen Jianghe skillfully blanched the pork ribs to remove the foam, and then they started frying with a sound of "stab".

Although Tang Wan's cooking skills are not as good as Chen Jianghe's, she is very good at the housework of washing, picking and cutting vegetables.

The couple cooperated very tacitly, and Lin Han, who was watching from the side, was secretly envious.

Lin Han looked at Chen Jianghe's fried pork ribs for a while, and then at Tang Wan washing and chopping vegetables, feeling itchy in his heart.

She can count the number of times she has entered the kitchen on the palm of her hand since she was a child, how could she do such work!

"Sister-in-law, is there any simpler work for me to try to learn?"

After watching for a while, Lin Han couldn't bear it anymore and was eager to try.

"You peel this onion."

Tang Wan casually took out a green onion and handed it to Lin Han.

Lin Han glanced at the mud on the onion, hesitated for a moment, but still caught it.

This is the first time she has held a whole scallion with her own hands, and she feels nervous and excited.

But how should you peel the onion?

Lin Han looked at Logan awkwardly, blushed and whispered, "Sister-in-law, I have never peeled onions, can you teach me..."

"What, have you never peeled an onion?"

Logan widened her eyes in surprise, thinking she had heard wrong.

She has been helping her mother in the kitchen since she was a child, peeling onions.

It's hard to imagine that there are people in this world who haven't even peeled onions!

"Um……"

Lin Han nodded shyly, "How should I peel this green onion..."

Tang Wan laughed dumbly and said, "Just pinch off the head and tail, and then peel off the outer layer of onion skin."

She grew up so big, and it was the first time she taught others how to peel onions. It felt a little weird...

"Well, is it that simple?"

Lin Han was even more embarrassed in an instant.

She grew up so big that she can't even do such a simple thing, it's a bit embarrassing...

Lin Han squatted at the door of the kitchen with the onion, and began to peel the onion seriously.

While peeling, she wondered, this green onion has too much skin.

How to peel off one layer, there is another layer...

At this moment, the phone in Chen Jianghe's pocket rang suddenly.

He was flipping the ribs in the pot with one hand while he connected the phone with the other.

"Hello, Mr. Chen? Are you free at noon today? I'll treat you to dinner."

Wu Dongyi's excited voice came from the other end of the phone, and he was very happy to hear that he had gained a lot last night.

"No need, Brother Wu. I have invited guests to have dinner at home at noon. I will treat you alone another day."

Chen Jianghe laughed and said, "I'm frying ribs, I'll call you back later."

"Fried pork ribs?"

Wu Dongyi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Why don't you add another pair of bowls and chopsticks at noon, and I'll go to your house for a meal."

"Okay, you just have to come."

Chen Jianghe knew that Wu Dongyi must have other things to do when he came here, not just for a special meal, and said with a smile: "Today at noon, my mother-in-law made sliced ​​noodles, so you should eat two more bowls!"

After hanging up the phone, Chen Jianghe saw that the pork ribs in the pot were almost cooked, so he added a pot of hot water and lowered the heat to simmer slowly.

He turned around and walked into the room, only to see Tang Jianguo and Li Fengxia sitting on the sofa watching TV without saying a word.

"Mom, there is someone coming over for lunch at noon today, do you have enough noodles?"

Chen Jianghe asked with a smile.
