Gu Shouxin and Cai Xiaolian only gave Gu Nian a suspicious look before starting to eat.
There were only three dishes on the table -- wild vegetable egg soup, stir-fried cabbage, and braised pork with soybeans.
There was no staple food, only eggs, cooked by Cai Xiaolian.
Apart from Gu Xin, the other three found it difficult to swallow.
Gu Xin peeled two eggs for herself, three for Gu Nian, four for Gu Shouxin, and three for Cai Xiaolian. Then, she said, "Father, this meat was given to us by Fourth Uncle. You weren't at home at that time. Dad, did you boil oil when you cooked the meat?"
She had never seen her father cook, so she didn't know if her father knew to boil oil.
