Chapter 75 I’ve never eaten pork before. (Seeking investment)

Braised crucian carp, twice-cooked pork, mapo tofu, stir-fried phoenix tail, green pepper preserved egg and a tomato and egg drop soup.

This is today’s lunch menu!

Chen Li went straight to the double boiler and quickly prepared the braised crucian carp and twice-cooked pork. He asked Chen Xue to take the dishes out, and Chen Li started making Mapo tofu.

At this moment, Ms. Wang walked in. She came to see her son cooking.

I don’t blame Ms. Wang for worrying. In fact, in Ms. Wang’s understanding, this is the first time that Chen Li has cooked.

In the past, Chen Li could only cook porridge, steam rice, stir-fry, etc. But it required a certain amount of skill.

As a result, when Ms. Wang entered the kitchen, she happened to see her son cutting tofu, and she was startled at that time.

"What are you doing?"

Some people may find it strange, isn't it just a cut of tofu? Is it worth Ms. Wang's fuss?

Cutting tofu is naturally very simple. You can cut tofu with a knife.

When the question came up, Chen Li cut the tofu with his own hands.

This technique is actually not difficult. Most experienced cooks can do it. As long as you control your strength, it is not difficult to cut tofu like this.

But in Ms. Wang's eyes, her son has just learned to walk, so he plans to fly directly?

Ms. Wang didn't think her son could make any decent dishes, even though the braised crucian carp and twice-cooked pork that were served just now looked similar.

But after all, she hadn't tasted it yet, so Ms. Wang was shocked when she saw her son preparing to cut tofu on the palm of his hand.

In fact, for Chen Li, cutting tofu is a very simple matter.

Mapo tofu, home-style tofu, and braised tofu are all home-cooked dishes in Sichuan Province. The two dishes Chen Li cooked most in his previous life were twice-cooked pork and tofu.

So Chen Li was pretty good at cutting tofu, but when Ms. Wang was so frightened, he almost cut his own hand.

"Ah, where am I cutting the tofu? Mom, what are you yelling at? You scared me!"

Chen Li raised his knife and lowered his hand, and a piece of tofu turned into eighteen pieces in his palm!

The next step is to blanch the tofu, in order to remove the beany smell of the tofu, then heat the oil in a pan, add the minced bean paste, etc., and soon a dish of Mapo tofu is put on the plate.

Chen Li sprinkled a handful of chopped green onions, and the Mapo Tofu, a magical dish that goes well with rice, is ready.

This scene made Ms. Wang next to her stunned.

"How long did it take you to learn to cook?"

Ms. Wang picked up a pair of chopsticks and picked out a piece of mapo tofu. Although this dish is simple, it is not so easy to cook it well.

When many people cook this dish, they accidentally ruin the tofu, and the Mapo Tofu that comes out becomes Mapo Tofu dregs.

"Do you usually help you? I've never eaten pork, and I've seen pigs running around. I learned it just by watching it!"

Chen Li replied casually while rinsing the pot. From the moment he prepared to cook this meal, he had actually been prepared to deal with it.

If Ms. Wang continued to ask questions, he was even ready to throw the blame to Li Yuan's cookbook.

Anyway, with the tacit understanding between Li Yuan and him, Chen Li believed that Li Yuan would give a satisfactory answer even if Ms. Wang asked.

But Chen Li never expected that his casual ridicule would cause a big disaster.

"Your baby is quite smart! I didn't expect you to cook well."

"Um?"

"What did you just say?"

Ms. Wang, who had just finished eating a piece of Mapo Tofu, was about to praise her son. After all, parents should be happy to see that their son can cook.

But there was something wrong with Chen Li's words, which directly made Ms. Wang frown.

"I said, you usually learn it by watching you cook?"

Chen Li noticed that something seemed wrong with his mother, and his words became a little hesitant.

He didn't know if his lie revealed any flaws, but he never expected that

"Not this sentence, but the next sentence?"

Ms. Wang stared at her almond-shaped eyes, her brows were tight, and the chopsticks in her hand changed from holding them to holding them.

"I've never eaten pork, not yet."

Halfway through what Chen Li said, he thought something bad in his heart. Then he got hit on the head with a chopstick.

"Which pig did you say escaped?"

"Are you a little too frivolous? Can you say it again?"

"Pah~pah~!"

Ms. Wang asked at that time while continuing to beat Chen Li with the chopstick tip in her hand.

In fact, hitting someone with chopsticks doesn't hurt, but Liu Qingqing walked into the kitchen and witnessed it all!

This is even embarrassing!

"Wow. I didn't expect you to be so good at cooking, bro."

Lunch officially started, and the most active person at the dinner table was Chen Xue.

This little girl has been living happily every day since she came to the county town.

Not only can you eat a lot of delicious food every day, but you can also earn ten yuan a day just by carrying dishes and sweeping the floor. This is much more comfortable than following Chen Li to catch eels in Erlong Town.

Compared to Ms. Wang who was surprised that her son could cook, Chen Xue didn't think much about it.

In the eyes of the little girl, although her brother is annoying sometimes, he is indeed very powerful!

Especially on this trip to the county town, Chen Xue never expected that her elder brother came to the county town to work and make money, but in the end he opened a barbecue restaurant.

And the most important thing is that when Chen Xue found out the sales volume of the barbecue restaurant, everyone was frightened.

In the past, when she and Chen Li went fishing for eels, they could earn dozens of yuan a night. Even if they were lucky sometimes, it would usually not exceed a hundred yuan.

But what about now? Chen Xue can easily earn ten yuan a day, and there is delicious food every day!

And all of this was brought about by her brother Chen Li. So in Chen Xue's eyes at this moment, let alone Chen Li knowing how to cook, even if Chen Li said that he was a Transformer, Chen Xue would believe it.

As long as Chen Li gives her pocket money, it's not impossible to have a Transformers brother!

So even though the atmosphere on the table was a bit weird at the moment, Chen Xue still seemed very active.

"Eat your food!"

Chen Li used a spoon to scoop a spoonful of Mapo Tofu for Chen Xue. Chen Xue usually likes to use Mapo Tofu soup to mix rice.

"oh!"

Chen Xue also felt something was wrong at this time, but she suddenly noticed that her brother's forehead seemed a little red.

"Eh? Brother, your Yintang is red. Is there a bloody disaster?"

"Hiss~!"

The little girl felt her ear being pinched by a hand, and then as the force became stronger, Chen Xue fell towards Ms. Wang beside her.

"It hurts!"

The little girl knew that she had said the wrong thing and quickly apologized and admitted her mistake.

"Xiaoxue, if the Yintang turns black, there will be a bloody disaster. If the Yintang turns red,"

This time it was Li Yuan who spoke, but he only spoke half of his words when he saw Chen Li raise his head and glare at him. Li Yuan also felt something was wrong and quickly stopped talking.

"Ahem. Auntie, try this braised crucian carp, it's delicious!"

Liu Qingqing, who had seen the scene just now, naturally knew what was going on, and she was smart and prepared to ease the awkward atmosphere at the moment.

Not to mention, the moment Liu Qingqing opened her mouth, the atmosphere instantly became much better.

"Hey! Qingqing, you can eat it too and try my craftsmanship on this bastard thing."

Ms. Wang laughed and moved the pot of braised crucian carp in front of Liu Qingqing.

"Well, thank you, auntie!"

"Why are you so polite? You like to eat fish, right? Just tell Auntie what you want to eat in the future, and Auntie will buy it back and let Chen Li cook it for you."

Chen Li, who was mixing rice with Mapo Tofu, was speechless but he did not dare to express any opinions.

After all, he had just been dealt with!
