Chapter 690 The young widow who inherited her dead husband’s estate (4)
The young widow who inherited her dead husband's estate (forty)
Lance was still worried that something was wrong with him, but in fact he still performed very well.
The fat and lean pork belly is crystal clear and presents an attractive red sauce color. The soft and tender braised pork is put into the bowl with the broth and it falls apart easily with a light poke of chopsticks.
When put into your mouth along with the freshly cooked rice, the braised pork is fat but not greasy, the meaty aroma overflows between your lips and teeth, and it melts with a light sip on your tongue.
Eating it with rice is an ultimate enjoyment for your tongue.
Song Ning enjoyed the meal very much and praised Lance.
"Brother, with your cooking skills, if we can't continue farming one day, we should be able to support our family by opening a restaurant."
He didn't seem to mean it casually, but Lance noticed what he said about supporting a family.
To support the family?
Lance was thoughtful. He always felt that the little prince seemed to be hinting at something to him, or was it just his illusion?
"Boss, I think you are joking. I think the food here tastes really good."
The little old man who was arranged to eat with us because he was busy harvesting vegetables was in high spirits. He ate while talking, and kept picking up the beans and other vegetables with his chopsticks.
"The braised pork is a result of the boss's skill, but the vegetables taste the best. You can tell at a glance that the vegetables themselves are of good quality. You will definitely have no trouble selling these vegetables."
When he got excited, he couldn't help but sigh.
"I've been growing vegetables for many years, but I never knew beans could taste like this. They're so fragrant and delicious."
Song Ning was a little happy to be praised, but when he looked at Lance, he felt a little disappointed in his heart.
He had originally wanted to test Lance.
The short-haired girl next to him looked at him, then looked at Lance, and finally looked at the new colleague. She felt a little headache and decided to eat first.
After all, from what the boss said today, it seems that they don't provide meals as normal, so maybe this will be the last time I can taste the boss's cooking.
Didn’t you hear what the boss said?
With the boss's cooking skills, there is absolutely no problem for him to open a restaurant. Maybe it will be a private restaurant, the kind that she would not be able to afford to eat in even if she had the salary.
With three more people, all the vegetables in the field were harvested in two days.
Song Ning then understood why Dong Dafu recommended these people to them, because these people more or less had some convenient abilities.
For example, the tall guy is just called Dazhuang by everyone. His ability is that he has endless strength and can move things as easily as drinking water.
Then there is the little old man. Although he is a bit old, he works very efficiently and his eyesight is also very good.
Basically, the vegetables he sorts are free of adulteration and bad substances.
The abilities of girls with short hair are a little more special than theirs.
Is her ability similar to telekinesis?
But it’s not that advanced and can’t be done from a long distance.
The good thing is that she can use this ability to directly pick up vegetables from the ground without damaging the vegetables themselves.
The three of them worked together and it felt like an assembly line.
After they came to a tacit understanding, Song Ning felt that there was no way he could intervene.
For a moment, Song Ning didn't know whether he should be happy or something else.
But it just so happened that he had other things to do.
"The lotus seeds from before have already sprouted. Shall we plant them today?"
Lance walked in and poured himself a glass of water, his Adam's apple moving up and down. Song Ning took a look and then looked away.
Humph, it would be a waste if he didn't look at it anyway, but he just took a look so that he wouldn't be easily tempted.
"What do you mean? Do you want to plant lotus seeds?"
Lance's back of his hand slid across his Adam's apple, and a drop of water condensed on his fingertips and was taken away.
Song Ning: …
Damn, it seems I've been tempted after all.
"It's a good time to go see how the fish and shrimps are doing. If they are edible, can you catch some to try?"
Last time, they used prawns bought from outside to make their tomato pot. They were very fresh, but Song Ning inexplicably looked forward to the prawns he grew himself more.
Especially after he tasted the vegetables he grew, he was looking forward to it even more.
Lance thought about it and said, "That's fine. If they grow well, how about selling a batch? I want to plant lotus seeds now, but I'm afraid the fish and shrimp will eat them too much."
Song Ning thought so too, but after thinking about it, he suddenly remembered something.
"Why does the goose at home seem to listen to you so much?"
He has been busy all this time, and only during the past two days when he had a little free time did he realize that the big goose at home was particularly attached to him.
But the problem is that he just feeds the geese every day.
He searched for the reason for a long time, and finally found out that it seemed that Lance would say this every time he passed by the big goose.
"Take good care of him."
Could it be because of this?
Lance took another sip of water, seriously.
"Well, talk to them every day and they will know."
Song Ning couldn't help but look at him, and suddenly he had an idea.
"Then if you talk to the fish and shrimp, can you stop them from eating the lotus stems?"
"I think the fish and shrimp can still grow longer, so we shouldn't rush to sell them. We can take our time."
Lance had never really thought about this.
But it was not a problem for him. His so-called ability was actually the result of props from the mall. After thinking about it, he said, "It should be possible, but the fish and shrimps have to be sold when they grow up. Don't you want to sell them?"
Song Ning's face turned slightly red, but he was very confident.
"I'm just used to eating home-cooked food now, and I think eating outside is boring."
I mean what I say.
Song Ning didn’t think of himself as a foodie before, but now he thinks he was wrong.
It’s not that he’s not a foodie, but that he has never eaten anything truly delicious before.
For example, the vegetables he grows now, just a single tomato can make a huge difference; another thing is the cooking skill. Ever since he discovered that Lance’s cooking is delicious, Song Ning shamelessly asks Lance to cook every day.
From time to time, I would order a dish like the one I made on the day I cooked the braised pork.
Now, every time he goes to the county to buy some fish, shrimp and meat, Song Ning can't help but wonder, are the chickens and ducks at home edible? Are the fish and shrimps edible?
The more I thought about it, the more I wanted to eat it. I was especially looking forward to seeing what different flavors these ingredients would bring out when they were in Lance's hands.
As he was thinking, he suddenly remembered.
"By the way, brother, we still have some dried mushrooms at home. Why don't we catch a chicken and stew it?"
He thought the chicken and duck seemed to be almost ready today, so it was okay for him to eat a smaller portion.
Song Ning looked at Lance with sparkling eyes, completely unaware that he was now completely dependent on Lance.
Lance looked into those eyes and felt a surge of pride.
Would he refuse? Of course not. This was the result of his hard work and he loved to spoil her. He loved to pamper her and would like her to stay with him forever.
