When she thought of this, Tang Huai couldn't help but recall the pain and suffering when she loved Jing Peng from her previous life, and her heart couldn't help but ache.
She gritted her teeth and swallowed the bitter taste in her throat. This action caused the veins on her neck to bulge out.
Jing Peng kept looking at her. Seeing that she was trying her best to hold back, he tilted his head in an attempt to see her face more clearly. "Tang Huai, are you uncomfortable?"
"Nope." Tang Huai slightly turned her face to the side, not allowing him to look.
"You just swallowed your saliva, the tendons in your neck are already popping out."
"..."
"If you don't feel well, just say so. Don't force yourself to hold on. It can't be helped that even the veins in your neck are bulging..."
He really talks a lot!
Tang Huai suddenly turned her head and glared at him. "I saw that meat was drooling, is that not okay?"
"..."
Jing Peng was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Tang Huai to glare at him like that. The girls in Twin Dragon Village, the girls in school, none of them dared to be mean to him.
Suddenly, Jing Peng gave a hearty laugh, "You have quite a character."
Tang Huai took a deep breath and suppressed her emotions that shouldn't have existed. "Light the fire."
When Jing Peng started a fire, Tang Huai washed the pot clean.
When the pot was hot, she fried the eggs.
Jing Peng looked at her practiced actions and couldn't help but sigh, "You're so young, yet you're so good at cooking. Truly amazing."
"Too little fire." Tang Huai indifferently glanced at Jing Peng.
"Yes." Jing Peng took out some firewood.
Under the light fire, Tang Huai controlled the poached egg very well, the exterior was tender, and the whole room was filled with the fragrance of the eggs.
Seeing the beautiful fried eggs, Jing Peng salivated, "My elder brother loves to eat poached eggs. If he was here, we wouldn't be able to eat the eggs you fried today."
Tang Huai's action of frying the eggs paused for a moment, then she indifferently glanced at Jing Peng. "Brother Jing Xuan will fight over the eggs with you?"
Jing Peng chuckled, "Of course not, my grandma loves him too much and he also likes to eat fried eggs. Every time he comes home, grandma will let him eat all of the eggs and she will watch him to eat them.
Tang Huai quietly listened, and when he thought of Jing Xuan's face that was handsome to the point of being flawless, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but slightly rise.
"My big brother listens to grandma's orders. If she tells him to eat, he'll eat obediently." Jing Peng tapped on the stove with a piece of dried wood, "Amongst all of her these grandsons, my granny loves my big brother the most."
Tang Huai added, "Who told your big brother to be so promising?"
Jing Peng revealed a smile of admiration, "Yes, my big brother is so great. He is my role model. When I grow up, I want to be someone like him."
Tang Huai cast a sidelong glance at Jing Peng. His expression of adoration and longing was truly handsome.
In her previous life, she had been charmed by his charming smile.
His appearance was enough to confuse all girls.
Tang Huai pursed her lips and thought, "Jing Peng is handsome, but no matter how handsome he is, he isn't as handsome as his elder brother."
Thinking of this, Tang Huai felt that her previous life's love for him had gone too far and was not worth it.
Tang Huai disdainfully looked at Jing Peng and thought to herself, "It was all thanks to him and Tang Ying that I was able to live once more. In this life, if I fell for you, I'll be a puppy."
Jing Peng didn't know what Tang Huai was thinking, but he looked at her with admiration. So the girl cooking was actually so pleasing to the eyes.
Tang Huai fried six eggs.
The fried eggs were all placed on the same plate. Only after Jing Min and Tang Ying returned with the vegetables did she start cooking.
Boil the water, place the noodles again, and add the sliced meat. In less than ten minutes, the noodles will be ready.
As soon as the noodles were done cooking, the village chief came back.
Jing Min called them all into the kitchen.
On the table, there were six big bowls of ramen noodles.
Meat, vegetables, fried eggs, and onions. Delicious.
"It's all done by Tang Huai?" Shu Yu walked to the dining table and looked at the noodles, which one can make drool over, and her eyes lit up.
"Everyone has their help." Tang Huai said with a smile. Her smiling face made her pear-shaped face seem light and beautiful.
Old Lady Jing slowly walked over and looked at the fried egg on her face. She swallowed her saliva and said, "The fried egg is very pretty."
Jing Peng had already sat down and impatiently took a bite of the fried egg, "The outside is tender, the taste is very good."
He took another bite of the noodle, "Delicious! It's tastier than the noodles I ate in the county town. "
There was a piece of meat stuck in the noodles, which he also ate. He nodded, "The lean meat has a faint salty taste. Usually, the meat cooked by Mama is not even this tasty."
"Is it that exaggerated?" Old Mrs. Jing snorted and pouted.
"Mama, just sit down and eat." Shu Yu pulled out a chair for Old Madam Jing.
After Old Lady Jing sat down, Shu Yu placed a bowl of noodles in front of her and handed her chopsticks, "Mother Jing, please try it."
Old lady Jing picked up a pair of chopsticks and pinched the noodles. The steam from the hot air assaulted her face, bringing with it the fragrance of broth.
She tasted the noodles.
The taste was neither salty nor light, it was very alluring.
Old Lady Jing did not have very good teeth, so the noodles were just right for her to eat. There were also the pieces of meat in the noodles. The faint salty fragrance was even more delicious than fried noodles.
"Well?" Shuyu sat down beside Old Lady Jing.
"Delicious." Old Lady Jing nodded and looked towards Tang Huai. "I didn't think that the things you made would be so delicious."
Tang Huai was not modest and smiled sweetly, "If Grandma Jing likes it, I'll make it for you often."
Do it often?
That...
Didn't you have to come to her house often if that's the case?
Old Lady Jing was a superstitious person. She felt that Liu Xiaoyu was unlucky to having not born out a son. Furthermore, she would be afflicted with bad luck.
Staying with this kind of person for a long time would bring about bad luck.
She did not like the idea of Tang Huai appearing in her house often.
However, she also liked to eat noodles very much. Before noodles and bad luck, she was still very rational.
Her expression turned serious as she said, "Let's talk about it later. Eggs can only be good for eating and not added to noodles. I won't eat them."
Tang Huai didn't mind and laughed, "It's just as delicious not to put eggs in. Noodles nourish the stomach and are easily digestible. It's the most suitable for an old man to eat."
The village chief smiled harmoniously, "It just so happens that your grandma Jing has a bad stomach. If you want to eat something, but you don't dare to do so. If you eat anything wrong, your stomach will ache."
"Indeed. Noodles can nourish the stomach." Tang Huai said.
Old lady Jing looked towards Tang Ying, who was standing beside Tang Huai, and her eyes lit up. "Tang Ying, sit down and eat."
Tang Ying glanced at Tang Huai embarrassedly. There were currently five people in the village chief's house, and there were six bowls of noodles on the table. Although she was already secretly swallowing her saliva, she didn't know whether the extra bowl was hers or Tang Huai's.
However, she was very happy that old lady Jing was able to invite her to eat. She secretly felt proud of herself.
She could tell from old lady Jing's expression just now that she didn't like Tang Huai at all.
Tang Huai maintained a calm smile and said to Tang Ying, "I made a special bowl for you. Sit down and eat."
Jing Peng looked at the noodles on the table and then looked at Tang Huai, "What about you?"
Tang Ying's action of pulling the chair came to a halt as she glanced at Jing Peng. Was he concerned about Tang Huai?
If Tang Huai sat down to eat and she didn't get a share, would he also ask, "What about you?"
