DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 21
Li Xiwu Cooking? How was that possible!
Tao Jing wasn’t the only one who found out. Wan Yu, who was sitting there chatting with her boyfriend, also realized it. She got up slowly and looked carefully in Li Xiwu’s direction. The more she looked, the more confused her expression became.
Luo Xiaosong noticed his girlfriend’s strange expression and reached out to tug at Wan Yu twice to make her sit down. Wan Yu pushed her boyfriend’s hand away. “Don’t tug at me. I think I saw…”
Min Hanrong, who had already finished cooking, was washing her hands. Seeing that Wan Yu had stood up and was looking at the fourth group intently, coupled with the fact that she heard their conversation, she casually asked, “What are you looking at?”
Wan Yu turned to look at the smiling Min Hanrong and replied, “No, I was just looking around.” With that, she sat down.
Luo Xiaosong asked Wan Yu, “What did you see?”
Wan Yu’s expression was strange. “Would you believe me if I said that I saw Mother Dragon?”
Luo Xiaosong replied calmly, “Yes.”
Wan Yu’s eyes widened. “Really?”
Luo Xiaosong said, “Really.” With that, he pointed to the sky outside the door. “There’s a horn flying in the sky. It’s you who is trying to blow it.”
Wan Yu: “…”
To be honest, Wan Yu would be surprised if Luo Xiaosong believed her.
“Look at Group Four yourself,” Wan Yu said to her boyfriend.
Luo Xiaosong glanced in that direction. Li Xiwu was cooking in an apron. Her back was straight, and she was very skilled at cooking methodically. The hand holding the spoon was stretched here and there, not messy at all. It was very pleasing to the eye.
Luo Xiaosong couldn’t help but stare for a few more seconds.
Wan Yu asked, “Like who?”
Luo Xiaosong recovered and asked, “Like who?”
Wan Yu said, “My mother!”
Luo Xiaosong snorted. “Don’t joke around. She’s so young, so…” In front of his girlfriend, Luo Xiaosong couldn’t praise Li Xiwu for being beautiful. He skipped the praise and continued, “If she’s a mother-in-law, it’s fine if you say she looks like your mother. Miss Li is still so young. It’s rude for you to say that.”
Wan Yu naturally knew that it was impolite to say so. But what she said just now was completely out of her mouth. She murmured, “She really looked like Mother Dragon for a moment.”
Luo Xiaosong suddenly realized. “So you mean the Mother Dragon?”
Wan Yu nodded vigorously. “I just said that I felt like I saw Mother Dragon. You said that I was bragging.”
Luo Xiaosong raised his eyes and looked over again. Although he had followed Mother Dragon along with his girlfriend, he had only watched one of her videos. Unlike his girlfriend, who wouldn’t get tired of watching a video eight hundred times.
Each time she refreshed it, she had to comment:
—Mother blessed my mouth. I can eat three hundred pounds.
—I’ll see who dares to be picky. Mother, throw the food along with the pot into my mouth.
—Mother, I’m so stupid. I can’t learn it. When you’re done, just stuff the food in my mouth. Treat it as feeding a dog. contemporary romance
Not only did Wan Yu call her mother when she commented, the other comments were all calling her mother.
Wan Yu asked her boyfriend, “Do you think so? Do you think so? Do you think so?” She asked three times.
Luo Xiaosong’s reply was pertinent. “At first glance, the action is very similar to the hand, but obviously… it can’t be Mother Dragon.”
Wan Yu nodded. “I think so too.”
Luo Xiaosong said, “Then why are you so excited?”
Wan Yu was very embarrassed. “I just suddenly felt that I saw my mother for a moment. I couldn’t control my excitement.”
Meanwhile, Tao Jing took the initiative to move closer to the kitchen counter and asked Li Xiwu, “It smells so good. Miss Li, have you learned cooking before?”
After Li Xiwu finished cooking the Mapo Tofu, she answered Tao Jing, “I didn’t specially learn it. I studied a few dishes myself.”
“Wow, you’re amazing. You can do so well with your own research.”
While Tao Jing was talking to Li Xiwu, she kept looking at the plate of Mapo Tofu that was steaming. As she looked at the salivary glands in her mouth, she kept salivating.
Li Xiwu saw Tao Jing’s appetite and suggested, “Why don’t you eat here?”
Tao Jing wanted to agree, but her mind was clear. “Actually, we cooked too.”
Li Xiwu did not repeat her question again, she turned back to her second course.
The second course was vegetarian. The vegetarian dishes only needed to be washed before they were cooked. The steps were very simple. However, Tao Jing realized that before Li Xiwu fried the vegetables, she had to blanch the vegetables first.
Tao Jing didn’t understand her way of doing things. Why did vegetables need to blanch? But she was too embarrassed to press the point. She was afraid that she would appear to know nothing.
When Han Qianye went downstairs, Li Xiwu had already made Mapo Tofu.
It was not that she was slow going downstairs, but when she was on the phone with Lin Yourong upstairs, Li Xiwu was already cooking downstairs. Lin Yourong also saw the scene of Li Xiwu cooking in the live broadcast. The more she watched, the stranger she felt. Didn’t Han Qianye say that Li Xiwu never cooked?
She could only remind Han Qianye to hurry downstairs and take a look.
“What smells so good?” Han Qianye walked over while smelling the fragrance.
Tao Jing saw Li Xiwu’s mother-in-law coming down and said, “Miss Li cooked the dishes.”
Li Xiwu cooked the food? How was that possible! Han Qianye felt that Min Hanrong’s daughter-in-law was joking with her, but that fragrance ruthlessly hooked her taste buds. How could it be so fragrant? It was the fragrance of three bowls of rice in one go. She walked over to see a plate of steaming, fragrant… tofu on the kitchen counter.
Han Qianye pointed and asked, “What’s this?”
Tao Jing said, “Mapo tofu.”
Han Qianye asked again, “Did you make it?”
Tao Jing was surprised. She had already said that Miss Li had done it. Why did Miss Li’s mother-in-law still ask? Then there was a clatter. Han Qianye and Tao Jing were shocked. They turned around and realized that it was the sound of vegetables being cooked in oil.
Li Xiwu was focused on cooking. After pouring the vegetables into the pot, she stir-fried them and added seasoning.
Han Qianye, who did not believe it at first, had no choice but to believe it after seeing Li Xiwu cook with her own eyes. But why hadn’t Li Xiwu mentioned it? No, she had deliberately portrayed Li Xiwu as someone who would not enter the kitchen. Li Xiwu had never said so herself.
Just as Han Qianye was wondering, she saw two dishes being served by Li Xiwu.
...
Cheng Zhongqing and Du Xu smelled the fragrance from afar and wondered what kind of big dish she had made. It was so fragrant that they were almost drooling. When the dishes were served, they saw that there were only two common and simple dishes: Mapo Tofu and stir-fried vegetables.
Cheng Zhongqing and Du Xu exchanged glances. The two of them couldn’t help but wonder at the same time if they had made fish and meat for them to eat later. Otherwise, how could these two common dishes smell so good!?
Du Xu probed, “No other dishes?”
Li Xiwu smiled apologetically. “Aunt Du, we don’t have time to make more for lunch today. I can only make two dishes for the time being. I’ll make a few more dishes tonight.”
“I didn’t mean that.” Du Xu chuckled.
Li Xiwu said, “Try it first.”
“Okay.”
Du Xu responded and was about to pick up her chopsticks when she saw that Cheng Zhongqing had already picked up his chopsticks and placed some tofu into his mouth.
Du Xu asked nervously, “Is it salty?”
The color was so dark that it looked a little salty and hard to eat. Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished asking.
Cheng Zhongqing suddenly stood up excitedly—
