Chapter 451: 451 Drooling (Seeking Monthly Ticket)
With that, she carried the cleaned vegetable basket and bowl, turned and headed for the kitchen.
The three of them watched her back as she left the room…
Yuchuan asked, “Wife, haven’t you finished what you were saying?
“Do you need to take a breath when you’re speaking like you do before hanging oneself?” Her beautiful and melodious voice carried on the air.
“Then wife, rest first, then finish talking.” Xiao Yuchuan grumbled, “Have you ever seen someone leave in the middle of a conversation when they were really into it?”
Xiao Qinghe could not help but smile, “She did that on purpose.”
“Yue’er is still young and mischievous.” Yishan’s deep and frosty gaze fixed on the kitchen, full of indulgence, even though he could not see her inside.
“Second brother, we can’t keep letting this happen, if we let it continue, our wife will become a tyrant at home, climbing over our heads…” He was saying this when he noticed the silhouette by the door, “Wife, you are back so soon.”
“How far do you think it is to the kitchen? You thought I would walk slow.” She rolled her eyes at him, “Xiao Yuchuan, you’re speaking ill of me behind my back while I’m away!”
“How could I do that?” He winked at her, fluttering his long eyelashes, “Wife, I don’t even have enough time to spoil you…”
“Humph.” She snorted heavily, walked over with large steps, giving off an assertive look, “I am a tyrant at home!” She shot a fierce glare at Yuchuan, but towards the other two, she grinned sweetly, just like a peach blossom in bloom in March, “Second brother, fourth brother, you don’t mind, do you?” She still felt she needed more time to compete with peach blossoms for beauty.
“Of course we don’t mind.” Xiao Yishan spoke with a gentle yet unwavering male voice.
The second brother’s voice was intoxicating and emotional like aged wine, full of an attractive maturity.
Unable to resist the urge to gush over it, Su Qingyue held back!
“Qingyue, do whatever you want.” Qinghe’s voice was light and clear, refreshing and heartwarming as a spring breeze.
She looked at his pale, slightly sickly handsome face… ‘Do whatever you want…’ She truly wanted to torment him a bit… but after a fierce struggle internally, her rationality came to the fore. She decided not to corrupt the innocent youth.
A villain should have morals too.
“Wife, you’re aggressive towards me, but you sneak smiles at second and fourth brother…” Yuchuan complained unhappily.
Su Qingyue wanted to say that she was not being sneaky but simply being flirtatious, which shouldn’t be misinterpreted. But she stopped herself, deciding against the potential harassment. “I’ve finished laughing, let’s get down to business.”
She sat down in a chair with a serious look, reached for the water pot on the table, poured herself a cup, and lifted it to her lips with a slow, steady movement.
The three of them watched her graceful and enchanting drinking movement, and found themselves unable to look away.
Only after she put down the cup, she picked up the thread of the previous conversation and said, “If the dried fern is cooked correctly, it can be quite delicious. Take the dried fern with pork skin, for example, it’s a famous dish. Once you finish preparing the pork skin and steam it, you add ginger, garlic, and soy sauce to the hot oil, stir fry the fern, add salt and water, and simmer it until the soup dries up. It’s so delicious that it makes one drool…”
“Wife, I’m almost starving just listening…” Xiao Yuchuan cried, “I want to eat stir-fried dried fern with pork skin!”
“I’ll make it for you later.” She was in an unusually good mood.
“My wife is the best!”
Su Qingyue pondered for a moment, then continued, “I didn’t impulsively purchase on a large scale so many ferns and bayberries. These two things will be out of season soon, and as things get scarce, their selling price will rise. Yet, there’s also a risk, it’s possible we might not be able to sell them at all. Therefore, to prevent a loss on my business, I’ve already bought up all the food our family needs for the next half year.”
