She cut off a three-gram piece of meat and cut it into pieces after she washed it. She also prepared some white radish, ginger, and garlic in pieces, and cut green onion into small bits to sprinkle on the soup at the end.
Ye Mo looked at Liu Duo, who was stir-frying, and no one knew what he was thinking about. Ye Ling kept his head lowered as he rolled the flour and occasionally looked up at Liu Duo.
“Okay, mission accomplished. Stir-fried radish with pork.” Liu Duo was quite confident with her cooking.
In her previous life, besides working and taking shots and medicine to resist her illness, the thing she loved the most was cooking. She would cook delicious food to reward herself.
After brushing the pot once, Ye Ling started to boil water to cook the noodles. Ye Ling cut the dough into thin strips, turning them into noodles.
Liu Duo, who couldn’t keep up, sat at the side with her legs crossed, one hand on her leg and the other holding her chin, and watched Ye Ling busying himself.
Ye Ling’s delicate face slowly blushed as he felt Liu Duo’s intense stare.
“Why do you get so embarrassed so easily?” Liu Duo arched a quiet laugh.
Ye Mo, who was adding firewood while tending the fire, occasionally sneaked a peek at Liu Duo. No sense of shame. Staring at men without moving her gaze.
“Look if you want, but what’s with the secretive glances? I know I’m a charm!” Noticing Ye Mo’s peeking, she turned to confront his gazing. Liu Duo couldn’t help but ridicule him.
Ye Mo, who was caught in the act, hid his gaze and did not respond. As Liu Duo looked at Ye Mo, who admitted defeat, she got even happier. “Hmm? You are usually quite fierce, why aren’t you saying anything now?”
Ye Ling looked at Ye Mo, then looked at Liu Duo, and chuckled. Mo secretly checking out Duo Er? It seems like Mo doesn’t really hate her after all.
Hearing Ye Ling’s weak laughter, Ye Mo’s slightly tanned handsome face blushed as red as an apple. It wasn’t clear if it was because he was close to the fire, or if it was because of embarrassment.
“Who looked? I have never seen such a boastful woman before! Shameless.” Ye Mo clenched his teeth and denied.
Liu Duo did not get angry. She continued to laugh, “Blame me for being pretty.”
“Ling, do you think I’m pretty?” she turned her head again and asked Ye Ling.
Ye Ling, the most honest husband, would naturally follow Liu Duo’s lead, “You are pretty. Duo Er is the prettiest in my heart.”
This was also Ye Ling’s honest feeling.
Ah! Does this count as Ye Ling’s confession?
Ye Mo was speechless after hearing Ye Ling’s words. Why didn’t Ye Ling side with him? Instead, he went and grew Liu Duo’s arrogance!
Looking at Liu Duo’s smug pretty face, Ye Mo decided that, since the pot was already broken, he would throw another pot into the mess [1], “Yes. You are pretty, and you are also my wife! Does a husband need to secretly look at his own wife? How absurd!
Looking at Ye Mo’s blushing face and also hearing his quibbles, Liu Duo suddenly felt that he was a bit cute.
It didn’t take long for the noodles to cook after they were dropped into the pot. There were five bowls of noodles, a plate of stir-fried radish with pork, and a small bowl of pickled vegetables. After they were placed on the table, they prepared to have lunch. After Ye Yang and Ye Liu washed their hands, they went to the table, sat down, and started to eat.
At the dining table, Liu Duo noticed that none of the four brothers took any of the meat. Besides the radish, they only ate the pickled vegetable. Only meat could be seen on the plate of stir-fried radish with pork. It made Liu Duo afraid to take the meat.
She coughed lightly, “Why aren’t you guys eating the meat?”
Ye Yang glanced at Liu Duo, “You should eat more of it.”
Ye Liu laughed, “Little Duo, you should eat more. It doesn’t matter if we eat it or not.”
What Ye Mo said was even more laughable, “I don’t like to eat meat!”
Ye Ling picked up a piece of meat and placed it in Liu Duo’s bowl. “Duo Er, you should eat more to heal your body.”
So they wanted to save all the meat for her? That was that why they didn’t take any of the meat?
