Chapter 198 Nagging
Lu Jingyao, on the other hand, said generously: "For breakfast, I have eggs with Gusu water and tea made by my mother. I don't know if they suit your taste."
Xu Youyou hesitated for a moment and asked: "Your mother cooks by yourself?"
Lu Jingyao nodded and said, "My mother rarely cooks, but every Chinese New Year, she wants to show off her skills in front of her family."
Xu Youyou was heartbroken. The Lu family's parents were both from wealthy backgrounds. They had been accustomed to living a pampered life all their lives. However, they were able to come to an orphanage in a remote place and cook for others for the sake of their son. She couldn't help but think with envy. , Lu Jingyao is really a lucky man to have parents who love him so much.
Lu Jingyao seemed to have guessed her thoughts and said, "You don't have to feel burdened by this. Even if it wasn't because of me, my mother would have liked you very much."
Xu Youyou nodded slightly: "I...I'm going to try auntie's craftsmanship..."
Lu Jingyao turned sideways, leaving room for Xu Youyou to go downstairs.
After Xu Youyou walked a few steps, she couldn't help but look back and saw Lu Jingyao still standing there, looking at her with his eyes.
"What's wrong?" Lu Jingyao asked softly.
Xu Youyou said: "You are celebrating the New Year here, what about your grandparents and grandparents?"
Seeing that she was concerned about this issue, Lu Jingyao raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "My grandparents and my aunt are celebrating the New Year abroad this year. My grandparents were taken to Hong Kong City by my aunt and uncle. You don't have to worry about us. For our family, where is home? Where is the year?”
Xu Youyou breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. Lu Jingyao was still a good person. He was always willing to relieve her pressure, but he couldn't help but feel envious again. His parents were loving, and even the elders from another generation seemed to love him.
Lu Jingyao urged: "You go to eat first, don't starve yourself, the children are still waiting for you to have a snowball fight."
When Xu Youyou heard this, she felt like an inexplicable old married couple. Her ears suddenly felt hot. She couldn't stay here anymore, so she couldn't help but speed up and run downstairs.
When she walked into the kitchen of the orphanage, she saw Mother Lu busy at the stove from a distance.
The kitchen of the orphanage is divided into two parts. One part is a new stove, which is responsible for cooking large pots of rice, and the other part is an old stove, which is used to cook wood-fired rice.
When the orphanage was renovated, the old wood-burning stove was originally planned to be dismantled, but the children refused. Many people like to eat the food cooked by the wood-burning stove and always miss the taste. What did the two deans say? Under pressure from the acceptance team, the wood stove was retained.
Mother Lu was talking to Dean He at this time: "My mother only eats the food cooked by the firewood stove. She doesn't like to eat any other food. Our family also likes to drink crispy rice soup. It's finally a good idea to live here this time." It’s a good time to drink.”
When Xu Youyou heard this, she thought about how difficult it would be for the Lu family to have firewood rice and crispy rice soup under the conditions of the Lu family. The reason why Lu's mother said this was just to get closer to Dean He.
As expected, Dean He was so coaxed by her that he beamed and said modestly: "This is the only thing that country people can do well."
Mother Lu hurriedly said: "Dean, you are too humble. The air in the mountains is good and the children are sensible. If I stay here for two days, I feel like I can live for several more years."
While talking, Mother Lu saw Xu Youyou who had just entered the kitchen, and her eyes immediately lit up: "Yuyou, come here quickly, Auntie will make you eggs with water and tea to eat. Eat this to replenish your blood. Auntie, I am the best at making this. They and their son Both of them love to eat.”
Xu Youyou smiled and nodded.
The method of pouring water over tea eggs is quite simple. Not long after, Mother Lu had it ready and served it in front of Xu Youyou.
Dean He took another plate of white fat buns the size of a baby's fist, placed it on the table, and said: "Your Aunt Lu heard that you like to eat meat buns, so she got up early in the morning to make meat buns."< br>
Xu Youyou picked up a small bun. The dough was white, tender and soft. She knew at a glance that it was the noodles made by Dean He. She took a bite and her mouth was full of fillings. It was fragrant, smooth and tender, and there was a lot of juice: "It's delicious! The noodles are good." "The meat stuffing is also delicious." Mother Lu immediately said humbly: "Your pork is of good quality and tastes delicious no matter how you cook it."
In fact, this is not the first time that Xu Youyou eats food carefully prepared by others. Whether it is the cook at home or Xu Fang, any food that she tastes more than two bites will be delivered to her in the shortest possible time.
Two months ago, Xu Youyou casually said something about old hen soup. Early the next morning, she received the old hen soup that Xu Fang's mother had cooked up all night.
But Lu's mother and Xu Fang's mother are obviously different. Xu Fang's future depends entirely on Xu Youyou, so she will naturally take care of everything.
Lu Jingyao did like her, but it didn't mean that Lu's mother was inferior to Xu Youyou. Most of the time, wealthy mothers-in-law made things difficult for their daughters-in-law and looked down on women with low backgrounds. Xu Youyou never felt the slightest contempt from Lu's mother.
On the contrary, she kept thinking, is this what a normal mother looks like?
When she looked up, she saw Mother Lu looking at her lovingly.
Xu Youyou poured tea eggs with a bowl of water and ate three small buns.
Mother Lu said softly from the side: "Eat slowly, don't choke. There is also red bean porridge. I will get you a bowl."
Xu Youyou didn't have time to refuse, a small bowl of red bean porridge was delivered to her.
Her breakfast could not be said to be rich in variety, but with the help of Lu Mu, an expert at feeding pigs, she had a round belly.

"Aunt Lu, I can't eat, I really can't eat." Xu Youyou waved her hand and said.
Although Mother Lu had some pity on her face, she asked again: "I plan to make sweet and sour pork ribs, squirrel mandarin fish, and fried eel paste for lunch. Is there anything else you want to eat?"
Xu Youyou immediately shook her head: "Aunt Lu, this is already very rich. I'm not very picky about food."
Mother Lu said: "You kid is too outspoken. With mom..."
Dean He coughed lightly.
Mother Lu immediately changed her tune and said, "What can I say to you, aunt, so politely? Even if you and Jing Yao can't get along, I'll blame you for saving Jing Yao's life. I've long regarded you as my daughter in my heart."

Xu Youyou's hand holding the chopsticks paused slightly. She suddenly felt that she couldn't stay in the kitchen anymore. Mother Lu was so enthusiastic that she couldn't help but want to escape.
Wan Xing Lele ran in and shouted to Xu Youyou: "Sister Youyou, have you eaten? Everyone is waiting for you to have a snowball fight!"
Xu Youyou stood up immediately.
Mother Lu hurriedly said: "Don't move too much just after breakfast. Be careful of gastroptosis. Let's build a snowman with them first, and wait thirty minutes before having a snowball fight."
After saying that, Mother Lu said with some embarrassment: "Am I too nagging? You should take care of your body as early as possible. Don't think about working hard when you are young. When you get older, it will be too late."
Xu Youyou smiled and shook her head. This feeling of being cared for not because of money made her want to escape but couldn't help but want to sink.
"Don't nag, I will listen to you."
