Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Su Binglan wanted to save the prawns for tomorrow, but everyone was excited to see what they would taste like. Moreover, it was the holidays, and the family wanted to try something new together.

Su Wenzhe said excitedly, “Don’t worry, 1 can still eat. I’ll even help with the fire again.”

Liu Yinyin wanted to help but was busy feeding Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai. The little ones ate the glutinous rice balls and savored the taste. They ate slowly, but their eyes sparkled.

Liu Yinyin was happy to see her sons enjoying themselves.

Shen Qiuhua noticed her expression and said, “You keep them company while 1 help Binglan, okay?”

She got off the bed but looked at Su Wenwu before leaving, saying, “Don’t make a fuss and stay with Feiran.”

“Yes, Mother,” Su Wenwu replied.

Ye Feiran slowly ate because she had a sour stomach. She had developed a habit of chewing slowly to make it easier for her stomach to digest the food.

She said, “I-I’d like to help, too.”

“They’ll be all right. We can see what they’re doing when you finish eating,” Su Wenwu said. However, he did not notice that his voice would soften whenever he spoke to Ye Feiran.

He typically exclaimed whenever expressing his opinion about his sister’s cooking, much like Su Wenwu. Since Ye Feiran was around, Su Wenwu unknowingly appeared calmer.

Su Binglan looked at the two. She smiled and told Ye Feiran, “It’s okay. Stay for a while, okay? I have many cooking methods to teach you later.”

Ye Feiran blushed when she suspected Su Binglan had guessed her thoughts. The former became anxious because she wondered how Su Binglan would make the garlic vermicelli prawn dish.

Ye Feiran did not expect Su Binglan to know her thoughts. However, it made Ye Feiran admire her even more. Ye Feiran felt there was more than met the eyes regarding the Su family.

She nodded and said, “Thank you, Binglan.”

Ye Feiran did not argue with Su Binglan and knew the family treated her as their own. If she were to argue, she would be pretentious.

Soon after, Su Binglan went to cook in the kitchen. She had some vermicelli

left in the kitchen since the family did not have time to eat them yet. Mr. and Mrs. Liu had told Liu Yinyin to bring home the vermicelli last time.

Su Binglan had taught Liu Yinyin’s parents to make vermicelli. Afterward, Mr. and Mrs. Liu opened their duck blood vermicelli shop, and business boomed. Later, the family made coarse and fine vermicelli according to the customers’ recommendations.

Mr. and Mrs. Liu’s business had become one of the most famous food shops in the village. They even started a new business selling just the vermicelli. Some would buy these noodles to make pork noodles, so the older couple also opened a pork noodle shop.

Drunken Cloud Restaurant also got its vermicelli from Mr. and Mrs. Liu. The chefs used vermicelli to make stewed chicken vermicelli, which quickly became a customer favorite.

Since many people bought Mr. and Mrs. Liu’s products, they considered opening a vermicelli factory. After all, their business was only growing.

Su Binglan did not know about it previously, so Liu Yinyin told her about it when she returned home, Su Binglan was delighted for Mr. and Mrs. Liu. Liu Yinyin’s family did well in business because they were diligent and bright.

Su Wenzhe said, “Sister, will you make the vermicelli?”

“Yes, I am. I’ll make the vermicelli fine, though.”

“Okay.” Su Wenzhe removed the vermicelli from the cabinet where the family usually stored such ingredients.

Su Binglan instructed, “Big Brother, you must boil the vermicelli until it’s soft before using it.”

“All right.” Su Wenzhe replied.

Luo Jin’an felt bad for his wife, so he hurried over to help, saying, “What can I help with?”

Su Binglan asked, “Why don’t you have some more glutinous rice balls and tangyuan?”

“It’s okay. I want to help you instead.” Luo Jin’an could not be bothered to eat because helping Su Binglan was more important to him. Moreover, he could not bear to see his wife working while he simply sat and ate.

Su Binglan did not feel tired. Instead, she was pleased whenever she could cook good food for her family. She understood her husband’s intentions and felt warm when she saw his concern for her.

Even so, she was stubborn. She playfully scolded Luo Jin’an, “I’ll be disappointed if you don’t eat all the rice balls I put in your bowl just now.”

Under her insistence, Luo Jin’an returned to the dining table to continue eating. His heart felt warm when he ate the food. Soon after, everyone finished eating. Then, they went to help Su Binglan in the kitchen.

At that moment, she had defrosted the prawns. She said, “Here, I’ll show you all how to open the back of the prawns to remove the vein.”

Everyone understood her straightforward demonstration and did as she said. Ye Feiran had gifted the family many giant prawns. Su Binglan planned to make more for everyone to have a taste, so they had to devein many prawns.

After that, the family peeled the garlic and mashed them into a paste. Soon after, Su Binglan prepared to cook all the ingredients in a pot while Su Fengmao helped to burn the firewood.

After heating the pot, Su Binglan added oil and cooking wine that she had specially prepared. She also added white sugar and pepper. She had developed a special pepper powder, too.

Su Wenzhe finished boiling the vermicelli. Then, he drained and placed them on a large plate according to his sister’s instructions. Afterward, he placed the prawns on the noodles and added the seasoned garlic.

Immediately after, Su Binglan placed the prawns and noodles into the pot to cook while Su Fenmao adjusted the heat from the firewood. After removing the vermicelli and garlic prawns from the pot, Su Binglan sprinkled greed onions and chopped chili as a garnish.

Then, she placed the dishes on the table, saying, “Try it, everyone. Tell me how it tastes.’

Ye Feiran was amazed because she had never expected Su Binglan to cook the prawns like that. However, Ye Feiran knew it would be delicious by looking at the color and smelling the fragrance.

She could not wait to try it but was too embarrassed to be the first to eat. After all, she was a guest in the Su family’s house and did not want to overstep boundaries.

Shen Qiuhua nudged Su Wenwu, saying, “Hey, feed one to Feiran..”
