Chapter 139 Don't Eat So Gentle

That night, Mu Daiyao directed Ji Xiukai to bring out the rock sugar pig's trotters on the stove. The aroma filled the air wherever he went.

Even Ji Xiuyun, who had always disliked Mu Daiyao, widened his eyes with greed and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

The aroma of wine mixed with the aroma of meat, and an indescribable sweetness made everyone in the Ji family sit at the table, eagerly waiting for Mu Daiyao to speak.

Due to strict compliance with the sugar-to-salt ratio in the recipe given by the system, the effect of this rock sugar pig's trotters dish was far more refined and perfect than what Mu Daiyao had made by herself before her rebirth.

Mu Daiyao had already given a bowl to Qin and Brother Wang to taste. When she saw the incredible expressions on their faces, she knew she had succeeded.

"The dish I'm having tonight is called Rock Sugar Stewed Hoof Pork. I figured out the recipe myself. I don't know who will taste better compared to the restaurants outside. You guys should try it."

After Ji Xiukai served a few more vegetarian dishes cooked by his eldest brother, Mu Daiyao clapped her hands and said calmly to everyone in the Ji family.

But she felt a little uneasy. After all, this dish was her test. If she could win unanimous approval, she would be more confident in her plan to successfully open a restaurant in the future.

"Hmph, at your level, you still want to compete with other restaurants outside. If you are really that good, why don't you open your own restaurant."

Although Ji Xiuyun was already greedy, she was still unforgiving and refused to admit defeat, so she made a sarcastic remark.

She originally thought that her second brother would help her talk, but Ji Xiukai had already experienced their stepmother's cooking skills several times, so she didn't dare to say a word at all.

I'm afraid that if I say the wrong thing, I won't be able to enjoy this delicious meal.

This is rock sugar stewed trotters. Ji Xiukai can guarantee that not many people in the whole village have tasted this kind of food.

He didn't know where his stepmother learned this from. Thinking of this, Ji Xiukai looked at Mu Daiyao with a bit of admiration in his eyes that he didn't even know he had.

"Second brother?!"

Seeing that no one spoke for a long time, Ji Xiuyun felt that her face was dull and burning. She glanced at her second brother, but found that his second brother looked away as if nothing had happened, not daring to look at her.

"Xiu Yun, don't call you second brother. If you don't want to eat, you don't have to eat."

Ji Zhixu spoke calmly, but Ji Xiuyun was immediately silenced, not daring to say any more.

"Ms. Yao, thank you for your hard work."

Seeing that no one spoke again, Ji Zhixu looked at Mu Daiyao, softened his tone and said.

Then he turned his head and praised Ji Xiuping, who was sitting quietly: "And Xiuping, you did a good job too."

Ji Xiuping's face showed no emotion, and he responded respectfully: "This is what a son should do."

"Dad, there's me too. I'm working very hard too."

Ji Xiukai murmured in a low voice, he also did some tricks, doesn't he deserve a praise from his father?

"As you grow up, shouldn't you do this kind of work?"

For his second son, Ji Zhixu always had a feeling of resentment that iron could not become steel. He stretched out his hand and knocked Ji Xiukai on the head gently.

Although the words were reprimands, they did not contain the slightest hint of blame.

Only Ji Xiukai couldn't hear it, his head was drooped and his face wasn't very happy.

Upon seeing this, Mu Daiyao knew that it had nothing to do with her, but she couldn't help it for some reason. She cleared her throat and said seemingly unintentionally: "Mr., my arm is injured, and it's difficult to deal with it.

of."

The words hinted to this extent. Ji Zhixu glanced at Mu Daiyao, who had been winking at him, and then glanced sideways at the dejected Ji Xiukai. His eyes were slightly lowered. After a while, his always cold voice finally came out.

A little more gentle.

"Xiao Kai, actually you did a good job, daddy is very happy."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Xiukai suddenly raised his head, looked at Ji Zhixu with bright eyes, and said "hehe" with a silly smile.

For some reason, seeing this scene, Mu Daiyao felt a little sour in her heart.

Before she could figure out what it was, Ji Letong said impatiently: "Can it be eaten? It won't taste good if it's cold!"

"sure."

Mu Daiyao's thoughts were pulled back, and she smiled lightly, watching Ji Letong put a piece of soft and glutinous hoof meat into the bowl, a look of anticipation appeared on her face.

"tasty!"

Ji Letong found that she would always have only one adjective for the food cooked by Sister Yaoyao. After thinking about it, her mouth was full of oil after eating, and the last word she came up with was "super delicious".

It made Mu Daiyao smile and frown, and also caused everyone at the dinner table to lift their chopsticks and start devouring it.

If it weren't for Ji Zhixu's quick eyesight and quick hands, he really wouldn't be able to steal his children.

He took a small half of the bowl, pushed it in front of Mu Daiyao, and said with concern: "Ms. Yao, you have to eat it yourself, otherwise you have been working for a long time and haven't eaten anything."

"Thank you sir."

Mu Daiyao really didn't expect that Ji Zhixu would worry about her even for such a trivial matter. She took the bowl, lowered her head, and raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

These four words sounded more beautiful to Ji Zhixu than anything else. If it weren't for the fact that several children were still in front of him, the corners of his mouth would have turned up.

Although Ji Xiu was not slow in terms of hand speed, he did not forget to secretly observe Mu Daiyao while eating. When he looked at the plate of food again, there was only a little grease left on it.

Not only that, Ji Xiukai also stretched out his hand to grab the plate, picked up a big steamed bun and wiped off the last bit of grease on it, and then happily drank more than half of the bowl of porridge with the steamed bun.

Ji Xiuping frowned. He was careless. He shouldn't have eaten so elegantly at home.

Naturally, Mu Daiyao could feel Ji Xiuping's seemingly absent gaze on her, so she didn't say anything. She just waited until after dinner and found a reason to keep Ji Xiuping.

"What are you planning again?"

After everyone had left, Ji Xiuping asked Mu Daiyao coldly.

He is not as easy to coax as his second brother. Don't think you can bribe him with one or two delicious meals.

Mu Daiyao didn't care at all about Ji Xiuping's indifferent tone. She tapped her fingers on the table, frowned slightly, and replied, "Starting from tomorrow, I'm going to make some pastries to sell at the market."

"What the hell are you trying to do? If you think your cooking tastes good, then just cook at home. Why do you have to go out and show yourself?"
