Chapter 193 - 193: The Kids Love Her Very Much
In order to thank her fans, Li An’an brought the three babies back to their hometown to record a new video. This time, they were going to make grandmother’s dish and stir-fry some barbecue meat.
Because the old house had been cleaned before, there was no need to clean it this time round. The three babies had great fun under the big tree. The scenery before them was beautiful. Everything was bliss.
Li An’an first roasted the skin of the cured meat over the fire. If the skin wasn’t burned, the cured meat would be very hard to eat and it would affect the taste. This was a necessary step.
After that, she washed the cured meat and cut it into thin slices. Then, she put the layered cured meat into water to boil. Once the water boiled, she fished out the cured meat. It had turned red and translucent, and carried a strong meaty aroma.
She took out red chili from a small jar by the side. She had bought this from a street hawker on her way here. It was authentic preserved cuisine!
She used a knife to slice the chili, then sectioned the onions. She poured the cured meat into the hot pot and stir-fried it. When the meat in the pot sizzled, she added Sichuan pepper, sour chili, and other seasonings.
The stir-fried roasted meat was ready.
After that, she began to prepare the grandmother’s dish. She took out the marinated cabbage and dried radish and placed them in a bowl. Then, she cut up the pork belly, dried chili peppers, and garlic. When the oil in the pot hot enough, she poured in the dried chili peppers and stir-fried them. Then, she threw in the pork belly, minced garlic, and stir-fried them. After adding salt and seasoning, she added the pickled vegetables. She stir-fried them over a high heat for a few minutes before adding a small glass of water and braising over a small fire! After more than ten minutes, she opened the pot and added sesame oil, red oil, and the alluring and glossy grandma’s dish was almost ready.
“Mommy, that smells so good! Baobao wants dinner!”
Li Baobao couldn’t wait another moment to bring a small bowl over. “I like grandmother’s dish. Baobao can eat two bowls of rice.”
“I’ll eat three bowls!” Jùnjùn, who was wearing a hat made of speargrass, also came running over.
“Mommy, me too!” Junjun was also holding a small bowl.
“Alright, we can eat now! The dishes today are a little spicy, so you can’t be too greedy.”
Li Baobao had already stuffed a big mouthful of roasted meat into her mouth.
“If it’s delicious, spiciness doesn’t mean a thing!”
Li Jùnjùn scooped a spoonful of grandmother’s dish and placed it into a bowl. He stirred it and ate the rice mixed with the grandmother’s dish with a satisfied expression.
Junjun ate elegantly, but he also ate a lot.
Li An’an stretched. Although she was tired, she had a great sense of satisfaction.
After taking a few bites, Li An’an was worried that her face would be dirty and went to wash up. When she came back, she saw that the three little fellows were eating very quickly and was worried that theyd choke.
“Eat slowly. Mommy made loads today. There’ll be leftovers.”
“Mommy, you said it too late. We’ve finished the meat. But Baobao will bear the pain and part with a piece of meat for you!”
Li Baobao’s heart ached as she picked out a piece of meat from her bowl.
Li An’an broke out in a cold sweat. How could a plate of meat be gone so fast? And the fatty meat… They completely cleaned it.
“Thank you, Baobao. Mommy is so happy.” She smiled bitterly. Could it be that she usually gave them too little food?
Li Junjun took out a small bowl from the side. “Mommy I kept this aside for you!”
Li An’an was touched to see that they had quietly set aside all the meat for her. “Thank you, babies, you are such angels. It’s a pity that Mommy doesn’t like spicy food. You guys can have the meat. Mommy likes grandmother’s dish!”
She had the same good intentions as the children, they all ahad each other’s interest at heart.
After recording the video, Li An’an was getting ready to leave when she received a call from An Xiaohui begging for mercy.
“I was in the wrong. It was my bad, okay? I’m willing to do anything as long as you don’t sue me. You know that I have a child to raise. Surely you don’t want my son to become an orphan, right?”
Li An’an smiled. “I gave you a chance before, but you refused to change.”
“No, I don’t want to lose everything. Don’t do this to me!”
Li An’an ignored her and hung up..
