Chapter 390: Learning secretly
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Mr Chu looked at Gu Xiao nervously, but his face was still serious and dignified.
“I didn’t mean that,” Mr Chu explained awkwardly. He didn’t look like how he was when he was nagging in front of Chu An and Chu Zi at all.
Gu Xiao naturally understood what Mr Chu meant. She looked at Mr Chu in a friendly manner.
“I know what you mean, Uncle. 1 won’t think too much about it.”
Hearing Gu Xiao’s understanding words, Mr Chu heaved a sigh of relief. He glanced sideways and happened to see Chu Zi and Chu An, who were laughing secretly.
In an instant, Mr Chu’s gaze turned cold.
Chu Zi and Chu An sensed danger and immediately restrained their obvious gloating just now. Their faces were solemn, as if nothing had happened just now.
Gu Xiao looked at the relaxed atmosphere between the three of them and could not help but relax.
She stood up. “I’ll go and take a look in the kitchen too.” fre(e)webnov(l).com
Perhaps she could even learn how Mrs Chu made braised sliced pork belly with preserved mustard. She really liked Mrs Chu’s braised pork belly with preserved mustard greatly, but for some reason, she had never been able to make it taste like Mrs Chu.
This time, she could take the chance to learn it secretly.
After Gu Xiao was some distance away from the sofa, Mr Chu looked at Chu An. “Xiaoxiao can cook too?”
Without waiting for Chu An to answer, Chu Zi, who had the fortune of eating Gu Xiao’s cooking once, was the first to speak. “Xiaoxiao knows how to cook, and her culinary skills are not bad!”
Chu An also nodded in agreement.
When Mr Chu heard this, he suddenly sighed. He glanced at Chu An and Chu Zi, and a trace of disdain flashed across his eyes.
“Tell me, why haven’t you inherited any skills! At this time, you can’t even go in to help. What’s the use of having you!”
Chu Zi did not have to maintain the dignity of the Chu family’s heir that he put up in front of outsiders at home.
After hearing Mr Chu’s words, he even rolled his eyes in front of Mr Chu.
“You’re a kitchen killer yourself. How can you have the cheek to despise others? You can only blame us for not inheriting Mom’s cooking skills. Why didn’t you say that we were all suffering with you?”
Chu Zi said bluntly without any intention of protecting Mr Chu’s pride.
If he wasn’t a kitchen killer and was strictly forbidden by his wife to enter the kitchen, who knew how much fun he could have together with his wife.
Now… he didn’t even dare to think about it anymore.
He hadn’t even complained about Mr Chu yet! Mr Chu actually had the cheek to mention this matter!
Mr Chu knew that Chu Zi’s words were true. For a moment, he did not know what to say to refute Chu Zi. He could only cough lightly and change the topic stiffly.
Gu Xiao had just entered the kitchen when she attracted the attention of Mr Chu and Sister-in-law Chu.
Mrs Chu had a plate of braised sliced pork belly with preserved mustard beside her, and looked like she was planning to steam it in the pot.
The moment she saw the braised sliced pork belly with preserved mustard, Gu Xiao’s eyes lit up. When Mrs Chu and Sister-in-law Chu saw this scene, they looked at each other with a smile in their eyes.
“Why did Xiaoxiao enter the kitchen? Just play with Xiao An outside,” Mrs Chu said to Gu Xiao as she dealt with the braised sliced pork belly with preserved mustard in her hand.
Gu Xiao forced herself to shift her gaze away from the braised sliced pork belly with preserved mustard. “1 also know a bit of cooking so I came in to help Auntie and Sister-in-law.”
As she spoke, Gu Xiao’s gaze landed on the braised sliced pork belly with preserved mustard. “I also want to come in and secretly learn from Auntie how to make the braised pork belly with preserved mustard delicious.”
Hearing Gu Xiao’s words, the smile on Mrs Chu’s face became even more sincere and brilliant.
“I knew that Xiaoxiao likes to eat braised sliced pork belly with preserved mustard,” Mrs Chu said as she waved at Gu Xiao. “Xiaoxiao, come here. 1’11 teach you how to make braised pork belly with preserved mustard. Originally, I planned to teach Xiao An how to make it, but I didn’t expect that Xiao An, that child, is like his father and brother. They can’t enter the kitchen, so Xiaoxiao, you have to learn it yourself.”
Gu Xiao was tidying up her clothes so she could work easier later. Hearing this, Gu Xiao paused and looked at Mrs Chu curiously.
“Just like Uncle and Brother Zi?”
Looking at Gu Xiao’s puzzled expression, Sister-in-law Chu and Mrs Chu recalled all the things that had happened previously. They looked at each other and could not help but laugh.
“It seems like Xiao An didn’t tell you.” Mrs Chu couldn’t suppress the smile in her voice. “Then I’ll tell you now. When your Uncle Chu entered the kitchen back then, he directly blew up the kitchen just to make scrambled eggs with tomatoes.. He…”
