Meng Lan thought that she would finally be able to eat some meat today, and her mood improved accordingly, and she became more pleasant when speaking to Yang.

"I bought some food. Let's eat something good today."

Suck it~

Meng Lan heard a soft swallowing sound coming from beside her.

Although she still didn't know what food her mother-in-law had bought, Yang couldn't help but take a sip just by hearing the words "good food."

She lived with He Guangzu in the village. Although she didn't have to do much work, she could only eat a few more mouthfuls of food than others and steal an egg from her son.

So she was happy to go to town to find He Tianci, because He Tianci would always take her to eat something good. But He Tianci didn't let her grow old yet, which made Yang very distressed.

Now that her mother-in-law said she wanted to eat well today, the glutton in Yang's belly was immediately aroused.

During the rest of the journey, Yang stopped talking and kept staring at the backpack behind Meng Lan, for fear of being touched by others.

When they arrived at the entrance of the village, Yang helped Meng Lan get out of the car with great attentiveness.

"Mom, why don't I carry it back? This basket looks really heavy."

Ms. Yang knew that her mother-in-law had the final say in this household. She had kept in mind that her mother-in-law had deducted her food a few days ago. She would deduct a little from the brown rice, wild vegetables and thick flour pancakes on weekdays.

We have to eat well today, but that’s not okay! She had to behave well and never eat less than others.

When Meng Lan saw Yang taking the job, she certainly wouldn't think that she had changed her temper and wanted to be a hard-working person, but since Yang was so motivated to work, she definitely wouldn't refuse her.

So the heavy basket behind her was immediately transferred from Meng Lan's back to Yang's back.

Along the way, Yang walked with the wind at her feet, making people feel like she was full of endless energy.

The villagers couldn't help but look at Mr. Yang secretly with surprised eyes. Did the sun rise from the west today? The youngest daughter-in-law of Lao He's family actually took the initiative to work? How strange!

Ms. Yang doesn't care about other people's opinions. She lives a comfortable life and can get real benefits in her belly. She feels comfortable and at ease.

After returning home, He Lianlian held He Guangzu in her arms and opened the door for Meng Lan and the others. She looked at the big backpack behind her third aunt Yang in surprise.

"Ms. Yang, you put the things in the kitchen and go watch Guangzu. Lianlian goes to rest and I'll cook."

Meng Lan clearly arranged several people in one sentence.

She cooks not because she is diligent, but because she knows the cooking skills of the women in the family and is afraid that they will ruin the good food.

Thanks to the fact that Yuan Shen didn't cook before, no one knew how good she was at cooking, which gave Meng Lan a space to show off.

She opened a modern supermarket and hired people to purchase, load, and sort goods. She thought about cooking when she had nothing to do, which can be regarded as developing a life skill.

Yang and He Lianlian looked at each other in surprise, and then did as Meng Lan said. He Lianlian went back to the house and lay down to rest. Yang put the things in the kitchen and went to see the child.

Meng Lan started to show off her skills in the kitchen by herself. She took out the big elbows and pig's trotters from the basket on her back.

First wash it with water, then put it in the pot with cold water, take out the cooking wine from the supermarket storage space and add it, add some ginger slices, and then control the water.

After completing this step, Meng Lan found another large pot, transferred the pork knuckles and trotters to the large pot, added spice bags, ginger, dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, rock sugar, salt, and finally boiled water.

Then she boiled a few eggs in a small pot, peeled them, put them in a large pot, covered the pot, and simmered them over low heat.

Then Meng Lan bought another basin of polished rice and began to steam the rice.

As for the piece of pork belly, Meng Lan put it away first and saved it for the next meal.

Meng Lan took out a piece of cabbage, washed it, tore it into pieces, and put it into a bamboo basket. She planned to wait until the pork knuckle was about to be stewed, then put the cabbage in and simmer it for about ten minutes. If she put it in now, it would be a bit awkward. too early.

After getting these things done, all you have to do now is wait, wait for the elbow to be stewed, and wait for the rice to be steamed.

Meng Lan took advantage of this time to put all the bottles and jars of condiments back into the storage space, leaving no trace at all.

Seeing that it was still early, she set up a small pot and boiled a few eggs. After they were cooked, they took them out and replaced them with a pot of water.

Then he started to boil the brown sugar water again. When it was almost cooked, Meng Lan peeled the boiled eggs and put them into the brown sugar water.

After Meng Lan finished all this, the two sisters He Zhaodi and He Pandi who went out to dig wild vegetables returned home first. It seemed that they had a good harvest today.

As soon as He Zhaodi and He Pandi entered the house today, they vaguely felt something was wrong.

Because their kitchen is a little too fragrant today! The smell was so weird that they all suspected that they were in the wrong place.

He Zhaodi and He Pandi couldn't help but slow down their steps. After putting away the wild vegetables, they walked to the kitchen door. Unfortunately, the door was closed and they couldn't see anything.

"Sister..."

He Pandi frowned and stared at the kitchen door, whispering something to say to He Zhaodi. But he was interrupted by a voice coming from the kitchen.

"Is Zhaodi back?" It was Meng Lan's voice.

He Zhaodi quickly agreed.

"Nai, it's me. Pandi and I just came back. Are you cooking? Do you need me and Pandi to do something?"

Since Meng Lan gave them some eggs to eat this morning, He Zhaodi was no longer so afraid of Meng Lan, and she talked more than before.

"You came just in time, Zhao Di and Pandi, please come in."

Meng Lan said hello and looked at the three bowls of brown sugar water on the table. There was still some left in the pot, and she was worried that she had cooked too much. The two sisters came back right away. What a coincidence.

He Zhaodi and He Pandi obediently opened the kitchen door and walked in from the outside quietly.

The moment they stepped into the kitchen, the two sisters paused involuntarily. As soon as they entered the kitchen, the alluring aroma became even stronger.

Now the two of them are 100% sure that the source of that aroma is their kitchen, or even more precise, it is the big pot behind their breasts.

"Milk." He Zhaodi and He Pandi lowered their heads after coming in, and the two sisters shouted at the same time.

"I saw that Nichiren Lian was not in good health these days, so I went to town and bought some brown sugar. I just made three bowls of it, and you three sisters can take one bowl each to replenish your health."

As for herself? Meng Lan glanced at what was left in the pot and said that these were all hers. She is an old woman, and she deserves to have something to drink and eat for the sake of the family.

Looking at the three bowls of steaming brown sugar water, with an egg floating in each bowl, He Zhaodi's eyes widened in surprise and she was speechless. Although He Pandi could still pronounce a few syllables, But saying it is the same as saying nothing.

"Milk, this..."
