Manbao returned the bone that had been sucked clean of marrow and meat to the kitchen, where Junior Ms. Qian was coordinating everything. Zhou Liulang and Datou were both following by her side.
With their experience from running a restaurant, they worked very well together and were responsible for most of the main dishes.
Junior Ms. Qian watched Zhou Liulang seasoning with salt, instructed him to add a bit more, and when she turned around and spotted Manbao, she took a moment to scoop some pig brain into a small bowl from a pot, placing it on a small tray for her, "Here, this is pig brain. They say that you get smarter eating what's smart, so take it and eat up."
Manbao was hesitant to accept the offering, mainly because she felt as if she wasn't lacking in 'pig brains', but after sniffing the enticing aroma, she swallowed saliva and asked with a sniff, "Sister-in-law, what did you add to it?"
