When Fang Ruofei had new ideas, she adjusted her mentality promptly.
When Chen Zhaozhao and the others came back to chat again, the atmosphere became much more harmonious.
Before I knew it, it was almost noon. Lu Fen said to go cook and stood up.
"Then I'll go back first!" Fang Ruofei stood up and took the opportunity to say goodbye in a measured manner.
"It's better to have lunch before leaving." Lu Fen said politely.
"No." Fang Ruofei said, "Next time, I won't bother you this time."
"What are you disturbing me for?" Lu Fen said politely, "You have nothing to do when you go back, right? If nothing happens, just eat and leave."
"I'm going back, nothing will happen." Fang Ruofei actually didn't really want to leave, just out of politeness.
She knew that Lu Fen would not stay for too many times, so she changed her attitude this time.
"You really won't be too intrusive?" She stroked her temples sheepishly, "Then let me help auntie!"
"..." Lu Fen said, "No, you can sit down."
"Cooking for so many people is too busy for one person."
"It's okay, I'm busy."
"Then let me help, otherwise, I would be too embarrassed to stay for lunch." Fang Ruofei looked at Lu Fen and smiled, with a hint of coquettishness.
Lu Fen could only nod.
Fang Ruofei followed Lu Fen towards the kitchen. Before leaving, she glanced at Chen Zhaozhao.
That look... was a bit provocative.
Chen Zhaozhao, "..."
She recalled hearing a few girls arguing in the square in her previous life. She went to her partner's house for the first time and wondered whether she should help with housework.
Someone said, "Yes, you don't have to help too much, at least you have to be diligent.
When I help, I can also get closer to my future mother-in-law.”
Some people say, "No, I am a little princess at home, why should I go to their house to do housework?"
If you do it this time, if you get married in the future, you will have to do it again.
Building a closer relationship with my mother-in-law is not just about doing housework."
"But if your mother-in-law goes to cook and you sit still, you look lazy and embarrassed.
Just show it off a little now, and we can talk about it after we get married.
At least the first impression should give people a good impression of being diligent. Don’t be too diligent, but don’t make people feel too lazy or ignorant.”
Chen Zhaozhao thought it was funny to think about this. In fact, it was about whether he should help with housework when he went to his partner's house for the first time.
She feels that people have different opinions and it depends on the situation. If her future husband's family is doing well and they really need help, a little help will be fine.
If your in-law's family is not good in the future and you use this matter to make a show of your power, you can't get used to it.
Especially when it comes to cooking, you should do it according to your own strength.
As for after marriage, it depends on how you manage your business, and it cannot be determined by a single performance.
Before coming, Chen Zhaozhao asked Yu Jinggui this question.
Yu Jinggui said that his mother's cooking skills make people save food.
As for whether to help or not, it depends on her own wishes. He will support her whether she helps or not.
He still left the question to her.
Chen Zhaozhao now really wants to have a happy relationship with Yu Jinggui. When she was at her home, if she needed help, Yu Jinggui spared no effort.
He has been working hard to build relationships and enhance feelings.
Then she has to work hard.
Feelings are mutual and only in this way can they last long.
She also hopes that through her own efforts, the Yu family can change their impression of her and finally accept her.
But if they are still like that after she tries her best, then she is screwed.
And now, Fang Ruofei actually provoked her?
Then she couldn't bear it anymore. Comparing her cooking skills with her, wasn't this asking for abuse?
So, she stood up and said, "Let me help too."
Lu Fen looked back at her, then at Fang Ruofei, nodded, and continued walking to the kitchen without saying anything.
Chen Zhaozhao smiled and said to Chen Xiaoni, then to Yu Wuzhang and the others, and then followed.
Because of the Chinese New Year, there are quite a lot of dishes in the kitchen.
But compared to her family, it's a bit far behind.
After all, a family like the Yu family must follow the above regulations and be diligent and frugal.
The supplies at home are provided by their work units.
Lu Fen walked into the kitchen and stood looking at things, thinking about where to start.
She doesn't know how to cook and feels a headache every time she enters the kitchen and doesn't know where to start.
The Fang family has a lot of contact with the Yu family. When Fang Ruofei and Fang's mother come over, she often helps with cooking.
They all know Lu Fen very well. He is good with a scalpel, but not very good with a spatula.
As soon as Fang Ruofei entered the kitchen, she followed her own kitchen, "I'll cook the rice first, and then we'll divide the work and cooperate. I'll be in charge of the cooking. Auntie, don't worry about my cooking skills."
Lu Fen nodded, she was quite relieved when Fang Ruofei cooked the food, it was several times more delicious than what she cooked.
"Then I'll chop vegetables." She said, she was quite good at chopping vegetables.
Fang Ruofei nodded with a smile and looked at Chen Zhaozhao, "What about Comrade Chen? Just wash and pick vegetables and do some hygiene."
Chen Zhaozhao did not answer her, but asked: "How many dishes should we cook? What specific dishes should we cook?"
"We..." Fang Ruofei wanted to answer, but stopped in time and looked at Lu Fen, "Auntie, how many dishes should we cook?"
"There are seven of us, let's make a soup and five dishes." Lu Fen said, "As for what to cook, just make whatever dishes are available."
Fang Ruofei nodded, looked at Chen Zhaozhao and ordered gently, "Comrade Chen, hurry up and pick the vegetables and wash them. The vegetables are all put in that cabinet. I'm going to cook."
Lu Fen nodded, "I'll wash the chopping board."
She didn't think there was anything wrong with Fang Ruofei's master's attitude.
Or, she didn't think Fang Ruofei was acting like the master, because she did know where the food was.
Chen Zhaozhao didn't know, she pointed out to her that it was normal.
But Chen Zhaozhao clearly felt the familiarity she deliberately showed, and there was a kind of oppression that wanted her to feel ashamed.
However, she didn't care.
She doesn't like this little trick.
As she walked towards the vegetable cabinet, she said: "Since we are cooking six dishes, let's cook three each."
"Can you cook?" Fang Ruofei asked deliberately.
She actually hoped that Chen Zhaozhao could also cook, so that she could make a comparison and show her prowess.
She didn't say it before when she was assigned. She originally wanted to wait until she had a chance to say it.
But I didn't expect that Chen Zhaozhao would run into him first. If something went wrong, she couldn't be blamed at all.
Chen Zhaozhao nodded, "Yes, I do it at home."
"How about your cooking skills? Don't show off? It's not good to waste food." Fang Ruofei reminded her kindly.
In fact, they are exerting pressure and paving the way for Chen Zhaozhao's poor performance.
She felt that she was very particular about cooking, and Chen Zhaozhao, a village girl, could not compare to her.
"It's okay." Chen Zhaozhao smiled calmly.
She saw Fang Ruofei's confidence and his intention to step on her.
Then she will cooperate with her and serve as a stepping stone to whomever she sees.
Fang Ruofei looked at Chen Zhaozhao's unconfident look and smiled, fearing that she would regret it.
"Okay, let's cook three each. I'll fry two vegetables and stew a soup, and you fry three vegetables."
Fang Ruofei's most famous dish is stewed radish and pork ribs soup. People say that if you eat radish in winter and ginger in summer, you don't need a doctor's prescription.
Therefore, it is very suitable to eat radish stewed pork ribs soup in winter.
Chen Zhaozhao had no objection to this arrangement.
Then the two of them decided on what to cook. In this case, they picked and washed the ingredients themselves.
After the arrangements were made, the three of them started to get busy. As soon as Chen Zhaozhao took out the dishes he needed, Fang Ruofei asked.
"Auntie, how much rice do you need to cook? I don't know much about Comrade Chen's appetite. I heard from friends who came back from the countryside that people in the village often don't have enough to eat.
If you want to be full, you can eat three times as much as us, I wonder if that’s true?”
