The cupboard still had some dried fish left, so Muniang fried them directly. Then she scooped them out, diced some red chili peppers, and stir-fried them together, rounding out another dish. But considering they were all meat dishes, and Mrs. Lin's body also needed a mix of meat and vegetables, she took out the basket of eggs, boiled four, and made a large bowl of egg soup with a handful of baby bok choy.
Because she had to take into account Erliang's big appetite, she made sure the portions were generous. Muniang didn't mind any longer; soon there would be plenty of Silver, no fear of spending a few coins.
Mrs. Lin looked at the full spread on the table, her smile so wide she couldn't close her mouth, not even sure where to place her chopsticks, "Muniang, when did mother not realize your cooking was this good."
"Before, mother also didn't realize how capable I was," Muniang laughed.
