When Mo Zhu saw this, she stood up and went to the kitchen to take out two sets of cutlery. As she scooped some soup for the two of them, she explained, “I made these dishes and soup myself today. If you don’t mind, you can give it a try.”
“You made it yourself?” When Chen Man heard this, she did not expect Mo Zhu to have such superb culinary skills. Her eyes widened in disbelief.
After taking the meatball soup from the girl, Chen Man lowered her head and took a sip. The fragrance of the meatball instantly filled her entire mouth, and she could not help but drink two more bowls.
“Xiao Zhu, I didn’t expect you to be able to make ordinary meatballs so delicious. I really feel inferior. I should learn how to cook from you in the future!”
Chen Man picked up more food and placed it in her mouth. She was filled with intense emotions.
Ming Mei, who was sitting quietly at the side, felt the same. After hearing Chen Man’s words, she was also attracted by the few simple dishes on the table. She, who had always eaten healthily and consumed very little during her meals, actually couldn’t control her appetite in the afternoon and ate two bowls of rice.
As she didn’t know in advance that Chen Man and Ming Mei were coming to eat, Mo Zhu had originally only made enough for two people. Now that the two of them had eaten, the pot of soup was empty before Huo Xuan could eat his fill.
Chen Man, who had drunk three bowls of meatball soup and eaten a big bowl of rice, wiped her mouth. She sat at the dining table and asked Mo Zhu curiously, “Xiao Zhu, how did you make this meatball soup? Tell me. This soup is too delicious. I feel refreshed after drinking three bowls of it. My mood is much better!”
The few dishes and meatball soup that Mo Zhu had made were too amazing. If not for the fact that there was only so little, she would definitely have packed it up and brought it home so she could heat it up to eat it at night!
Hearing Chen Man’s question, Mo Zhu stopped eating and replied seriously, “Auntie, there’s nothing special about this meatball soup. It’s just ordinary seasonings. However, when I made it, I added some pills that I had refined myself, so it became a medicinal dish.”
“Medicinal cuisine?” Upon hearing Mo Zhu’s words, Ming Mei raised her eyebrows curiously and waited for Mo Zhu to continue.
Previously, Chen Man had never mentioned to her friends that Mo Zhu knew medicine. Even Ming Mei, her best friend, did not know that Mo Zhu was an expert in the medical field. Now that she suddenly heard that the girl knew how to develop medicine, Ming Mei was a little surprised.
Mo Zhu nodded and replied indifferently, “That’s right. After adding the pills, this meatball soup can indeed be called a medicinal cuisine. After eating it, it can replenish one’s blood and replenish one’s energy!”
When Ming Mei heard this, she turned to look at Chen Man in surprise. “Xiao Man, your daughter-in-law actually knows medicine. I couldn’t tell, I really couldn’t tell. The Huo family has really won a big treasure!”
Seeing Ming Mei’s shocked expression, Mo Zhu knew that Chen Man must have hidden the fact that she knew medicine from her close friends. A warmth welled up in her heart and she looked at Chen Man gratefully.
Chen Man did not know how to answer Ming Mei’s question. She smiled awkwardly and turned to look at Mo Zhu.
Receiving the deep meaning in the woman’s eyes, Mo Zhu smiled and looked at Ming Mei. “Auntie Ming, I know a little about medicine.”
Upon hearing Mo Zhu’s words, Ming Mei seemed to have sensed something. She touched her abdomen and frowned slightly as she sighed. “Xiao Zhu, don’t say that. After drinking your meatball soup, my stomach doesn’t seem to hurt so much.”
