Su Yayan looked at the few elders who were staring at her intently. She coughed lightly and said, “Grandpa wants to eat braised food, so I made some.”
Of course, Grandpa Li knew that she made braised food. This was something that the Cheng Family had enjoyed before. It was very fragrant, and the smell had attracted the attention of several families in their area.
At that time, they had followed the scent to the Cheng residence, wanting this old fellow to give them a taste. In the end, what did this b*stard say?
“This was specially gifted to me by my Yanyan. There’s only one packet of it. There won’t be any left after eating it. If you want to eat it, ask your grandchildren to make it for you!”
Grandpa Li and the others didn’t get to eat anything and even had to endure Old Master Cheng’s bragging. When they got home, they scolded their grandchildren.
Look at other people’s children, then look at you all. It’s better to raise a piece of charsiew than to raise you. At the very least, I can eat the charsiew!
The juniors who had been labeled unfilial for no reason, “…” We are wronged!
What was most infuriating was that they thought it would be gone after one use. Although they were greedy, they couldn’t really fight with Old Master Cheng for the meat.
Who would have thought that three to four days later, when it was time to eat, they would be able to smell the strong fragrance from the Cheng residence once again.
Grandpa Li and the rest who finally realized that they had been deceived, “…” D*mn it, you said you only had one serving. Don’t you feel bad for lying to your old friend for decades just to eat?
Later on, they found out that there was indeed only one packet of soup. However, this packet of soup could be boiled again. The more it was cooked, the more fragrant it became.
The few of them were so angry that their stomachs hurt. In the end, they decided to go to Old Master Cheng’s house like a swarm of bees and threaten him. Only then did they each get some braised chicken feet and
go home to taste.
It was just that before they ate it, they were only curious. But after they took a bite, they were worried and thought about it day and night.
Just now, Grandpa Li had just rebuked Old Master Cheng and was carrying a few fish home smugly when he smelled the familiar fragrance from the Cheng residence.
Grandpa Li took a look at the fish in his bucket, and then looked at the Cheng residence, which was emitting a fragrance not far away.
“…” Did the face-slapping come so quickly?
Of course, Grandpa Li wasn’t the only one who was attracted by the fragrance. A few old men who had split up half an hour ago gathered in front of the Cheng residence’s gate and looked at each other.
After walking around for about ten minutes, they finally couldn’t take it anymore and barged in together.
Grandpa Li stared at the plate of braised food and hesitated.
In the end, it was another grandpa who coughed lightly and said shamelessly, “Are you guys preparing to eat? Coincidentally, we haven’t eaten yet.”
Old Master Cheng’s face darkened.
He knew that these shameless old fellows were here to s.n.a.t.c.h food from him!
Su Yayan didn’t expect them to be so straightforward. She was stunned for a moment before she glanced at her grandfather’s dark expression. An idea struck her.
“Cough, it’s rare for the elders to come here. Logically speaking, you should stay for a meal.”
Their eyes lit up and Old Master Cheng’s face darkened.
“But I didn’t know you were coming. We didn’t cook much at home.”
The happy expressions on their faces suddenly froze, while Old Master Cheng raised his chin proudly like a rooster that won a battle.
“How about this, I’ll pack a portion of braised food for each of you. You can bring it back to eat first. When there’s a chance next time, I’ll cook more rice and invite you over to have a good meal. What do you think?”.
