Chapter 7706 Stealing Vegetables
Chapter 7706 Stealing Vegetables
In the kitchen, Luo Ping's mother opened the pot lid.
Crispy vegetables don't have a strong, overpowering aroma from the ingredients. This dish is rather light, and you can only taste it by eating it. If you want to say it has any flavor, it's a faint vegetable flavor with a hint of vinegar. It's a dish that people who prefer a lighter taste will enjoy.
The aunties were all holding their dishes, not wanting to appear greedy, so they were busy preparing the river vegetables behind the protective barrier and didn't come over.
The vegetable stalk is quite long; drag it over and trim the edges.
Luo Jiao, Luo Yan, Luo Ping, and Tong Wan ran to the kitchen, along with Luo Bi, Luo Ping's mother, and Guan Zhuting, who were in charge of making crispy vegetables. As soon as the pot lid was opened, the foodies crowded around.
"What do you like to eat?" Luo Ping's mother asked, taking out a plate to serve the crispy vegetables.
"I'll try the fish," Luo Ping said, a picky eater who preferred expensive ingredients.
“I also eat fish,” Luo Yan said. River vegetables are vegetarian, but she loves to eat meat.
At this moment, in the kitchen, apart from those who were cooking, Luo Yan and the others felt that they were different from others. As a member of the younger generation, they were talented individuals who should be pampered and spoiled by the family.
The aunts really dote on the younger generation.
"Which fish do you want to eat?" Luo Ping's mother asked, holding tongs, meaning she would serve whichever fish the girls wanted to eat.
Luo Yan and Luo Ping went over to her. Luo Jiao, having been instructed by her father Luo Qiang, tried to get closer to Luo Bi in every way. She turned to ask Luo Bi what she wanted to eat, and Guan Zhuting also brought a few plates.
Luo Jiao was perceptive enough to accept the two plates.
"Mom," Luo Bi said coquettishly, "I want to eat seaweed and river cabbage."
Guan Zhuting knew that Luo Jiao loved to eat seaweed, so she picked out some thicker pieces and put them on her plate, along with some river cabbage. Luo Jiao loved to eat fish, so Guan Zhuting didn't stand on ceremony and put two pieces of crispy fish on her plate.
One for Luo Bi, one for Luo Jiao.
Luo Jiao: "..."
There were only a few silver carp in the hot pot, and Guan Zhuting took two at once. Luo Ping's mother had originally planned to give Luo Yan and Luo Ping only one fish each, but Guan Zhuting took two, leaving her stunned.
Is this appropriate?
Guan Zhuting isn't an impolite person, is she? Why is she being so rude today?!
Guan Zhuting is well-mannered, but since she married into the Hua family of the imperial star, she knows what status and treatment a talented person should have. It's perfectly reasonable for her to take most of this pot of crispy vegetables.
"Oh dear." Tong Wan said sarcastically again, "It's just different when someone has their mother around."
It means that Luo Bi and Luo Ping's mother followed along, serving them their favorite foods first, putting herself in a pitiful position. Tong Wan always liked to be sarcastic and speak with hidden meanings.
In the past, Luo Bi usually ignored her; arguing with someone of her caliber would be beneath her dignity.
But Luo Bi didn't like listening to that today. She glanced at Tong Wan and thought, "You spineless thing! If you're so capable, why don't you pick out your own favorite dishes and serve them yourself? You don't dare, all you do is whine."
"Tell your unpopular mother-in-law to serve you the food," Luo Bi retorted sarcastically.
All Tong Wan did all day was criticize her mother-in-law and roll her eyes. Luo Chang's mother was about to give up. Moreover, Tong Wan was capricious and would still order people around whenever she needed her mother-in-law.
It's one thing to be unhappy if someone else has their mother around, but don't you have your mother-in-law around?
Luo Ping's mother: "......"
Guan Zhuting: "..."
That's really sharp-tongued, directly pointing out that Tong Wan doesn't like her mother-in-law.
"Who are you calling unpopular?" Tong Wan asked fiercely.
If you treat your elders badly, your reputation will suffer.
"You've been rolling your eyes all day." Luo Bi retorted without flinching, "Who are you calling unpopular? You're being sarcastic even while eating, and I can't even say anything?" (End of Chapter)
