Wang Shou thought that with Shen Chen's temperament, he would never allow that woman from Lin Xi to be so presumptuous!

However, he heard Shen Chen speak thoughtfully——

"My lady attaches so much importance to it, it shows that the new dishes should be extremely delicious."

After saying this, Shen Chen ignored Wang Shou and turned around to walk towards the kitchen.

Wang Shou even heard his brother Shen ask in a gentle tone: "Do you want to go shopping in the county?"

The woman said: "Which county are you going to? I have meat at home and spinach that I just pulled two days ago. I can just go pull some cabbage this afternoon."

Brother Shen said: "Is this enough?"

The woman said: "That's enough. Oh, how about we go to the mountains to pick some mushrooms in the afternoon? Huming Mountain has always been rich in products, and there should be mushrooms at this time of year."

Brother Shen said: "Okay, I'll go in the afternoon."

The woman said: "Hey, let's go together as a family and just play with the children."

Wang Shou: "..."

Wang Shou: “??”

Wang Shou: "!!!"

Is that really a plain and unremarkable pot??

He doesn't believe it!

This must be an excuse that Brother Shen came up with to prevent that woman from finding out!

Yes, that must be the case! There is no way his brother Shen would let him make a simple pot!

Lin Xi and Shen Chen finished their discussion in the kitchen and came out to see Wang Shou still there.

Seeing that Lin Xi's expression was complicated and her eyes seemed to be filled with tears, Lin Xi asked in surprise: "What's wrong with you?"

Wang Shou: "I..."

"I understand, you want to eat too, right?" Lin Xi said.

Wang Shou: "..."

Lin Xi looked at Wang Shou and then at Shen Chen. Thinking of the relationship between the two, her eyes were meaningful. Lin Xi said thoughtfully: "Don't worry, you can stay and eat with us tonight. I just want to thank you for doing this." Get out of this pot."

This pot...

Kouguo...

pot……

Wang Shou shook his head vigorously to expel the demonic sound, and said angrily: "Okay!"

He didn't believe it anymore. He would definitely find a chance to hear the truth from Brother Shen!

Shen Chen next to Lin Xi: "..."

I don't know why, but I suddenly feel that Wang Shou is a bit stupid.

Moreover... they were eating together as a family, why did Wang Shou, a lonely man, get in the way?

Shen Chen frowned seriously.

So in the afternoon, Wang Shou followed Lin Xi and his family almost every step of the way.

When they learned that they could go into the mountains today, the four children were a little excited and eager to follow with their little shovels.

Huming Mountain is really rich. They searched all afternoon and found a lot of mushrooms, as well as some wild vegetables and fruits. It was a great harvest.

Back home, a group of humans and machines began to process the dishes they brought back.

Wang Shou watched from the side, and Shen Chen looked even more displeased at him, "Come here to help. The children are not idle." Is he too embarrassed to be idle?

Wang Shou's eyes lit up.

The opportunity has come!

Brother Shen is going to tell him!

Wang Shou came closer and saw Shen Chen washing the vegetables without saying a word. He tried to bring it up, but was interrupted by Lin Xi or the children every time. So after Shen Chen washed the vegetables, he went to chop firewood. After chopping the firewood, he went to light the fire. Wash the pot after the fire is over.

Wang Shou was in disbelief: "This is too much. How can a grown man do this?!"

Lin Xi, who was mixing the condiments, glanced at him and said, "Why can't you tell me? This house is not for women alone. Men do some work together and help each other. Isn't it normal? Don't you help your mother at home? live?"

"Of course I'll help!"

After Wang Shou finished speaking, he was stunned for a moment.

Lin Xi said: "Look. As long as you are a member of this family, no one can be alone. Life is not for one person, but for the whole family."

After Lin Xi finished speaking, she asked Shen Chen, who had lit the fire, to go out and watch the children. It was time for her to cook.

Shen Chen hummed, and when he saw that Lin Xi was finally taking the strange pot off the stove, he said, "Call me later when you take the pot. I'll do it."

Then, Shen Chen went out.

Wang Shou stood stunned for a while at the door, then looked back at the yard. Four children were playing, and Shen Chen was still processing the remaining useless vegetables.

The kitchen behind him was warm and cozy, and the smoke flowed into the air along the chimney, quietly outlining an appearance he had never seen before.

The moonlight in the sky breaks through the clouds and shines across the ground, complementing the candlelight inside and outside the house.

Wang Shou felt that something in his heart seemed to be touched, especially when he saw Shen Chen looking at the children with a rare soft and relaxed expression.

In the kitchen, Lin Xi boiled a pot of chicken soup in advance, then poured the rich and fragrant chicken soup into a new pot, and added condiments to make the soup base.

Generally speaking, hot pot must be spicy.

But there were really no chili peppers in this era, so Lin Xi had to make a pot base with tomato, mushroom and chicken soup flavor, then wash and slice the cabbage, spinach and mushrooms, and finally cut the meat into slices.

Of course, Lin Xi did not cut the entire large piece of meat, but only cut it in half. The other half of the meat was stir-fried with two vegetables. Mainly because he was worried that after adding Wang Shou, the preparation would not be enough.

By this time, the fragrance in the kitchen had already drifted far away.

The four children lined up at the door and stared, swallowing their saliva.

Wang Shou didn't expect it to be so fragrant, so he wanted to be polite and dismissive, but he couldn't help but follow the children, his eyes gleaming as he looked at the pile of ingredients Lin Xi had placed beside the stove.

Only Shen Chen still sat there calmly.

If you ignore that he doesn't look towards the kitchen frequently.

After finally finishing everything, Lin Xi said: "Shen Chen, come and help me get it."

When she turned around, Lin Xi was startled when she saw people standing at the door. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Outside, Shen Chen stood up immediately, but before he could reach the door, Wang Shou, whose stomach growled because of the scent, couldn't help but rush in.

"I'll come, I'll come. There's no need for Brother Shen. It's time to start dinner, right?"

Shen Chen: "..."

This is obviously calling him.

When Lin Xi saw Wang Shou coming, he pointed at the pot and said, "Take it first, be careful. I've put a charcoal fire in the compartment inside. You wrap it up with the two thick towels next to it and carry it."

Wang Shou swallowed, no longer paying attention to anything, and nodded repeatedly.

Lin Xi reminded: "Dabao, get out of the way quickly, or I'll burn you."

After Wang Shou brought the pot to the table under the shed outside, Shen Chen immediately came in to serve the dishes, and the children also took out the washed dishes.

The children were very curious when they saw this kind of pot for the first time.

"It's still bubbling and smoking!"

"Is this okay? It's burning like unboiled water!"

"The vegetables and meat next to them are still freshly washed and not stir-fried. How do you eat them? Do you want to eat them directly?"

Six pairs of doubtful eyes looked at Lin Xi.

Lin Xi picked up the chopsticks and said: "These washed vegetables are put directly into the pot to cook. Like this, you can cook whatever you want. There are also dipping sauces I prepared in the kitchen, and the cooked vegetables can be dipped in the seasonings." Eat, as for the seasonings, there are several kinds, you can add them according to your own taste."
