Young Master Qin Keeps Coveting Me After I Beat Him Up

“Have you eaten meat skewers before?” Some boys laughed at him.

Over here, they could eat dumplings, cured meat, and pickled pork ribs during the New Year, but they rarely ate these during normal times.

Even if they could eat it, they would just cook the meat and eat it. They weren’t able to cook the food so delicately.

“Meat skewers, isn’t it just skewered meat?” The boy took the skewers and said, “The ones we ate before were just meat without sticks. You can make meat skewers with sticks!”

As for the others, some went to drink chicken soup while others went to eat stewed beef with potatoes.

The children ate very little of Qiao Ni’s salad and did not seem to be very interested.

“Aiya, why aren’t they eating our salad?” Qiao Ni tugged at Qiuwei’s sleeve anxiously.

If she had a choice, she wouldn’t want to stay in that woodshed either.

Qiuwei was regretting that she had only focused on her work and had not been able to learn any good dishes.

At such a critical moment, it would’ve come in handy!

“Children don’t like to eat vegetables,” Xingle said to Qiao Ni. “Besides, they usually eat vegetables the most at home. Here, it’s all meat. How could they be willing to eat vegetables?”

Xingle’s mother-in-law didn’t think much of it this time.

What Xingle said made sense.

Nowadays, vegetables were getting more and more expensive. The vegetables that these children usually ate might not be as expensive as those sold in the market.

The expensive vegetables must have been put away and sold.

But what was certain was that the children definitely didn’t eat as much meat as vegetables.

Looking at these vegetables, they looked bland and tasteless, but the beef and chicken beside them were fragrant.

Of course, the children would choose the meat.

Qiuwei had no choice. Neither she nor Qiao Ni knew how to cook, but there was another reason. Qiuwei said, “Nini and I are indeed a little lacking in cooking department. However, it’s also because we thought that everyone was cooking meat dishes and there were no vegetables, so we wanted to make a vegetable salad for the children.”

“Yes, that’s why we want the children to eat more vegetables,” Qiao Ni explained.

Qiuwei said, “When I was young, I acted in a rural drama. At that time, it was really filmed in the countryside, and it was filmed in a very backward place.”

“Now that the country is helping the poor, there are fewer and fewer poor areas. But when I was young, there were many places like Gantai Village,” Qiuwei explained. “I know more about what the villagers usually eat. Not only the children, but the adults were the same. Xiao Zhou had just said that the children usually ate more vegetables, so they want to eat more meat. But in fact, the vegetables that the children eat are probably not the kind that we think of.”

“The vegetables that can sell at a good price must have been sent to the market to be sold, and they are reluctant to eat those. It’s easier to grow food for their own families, such as potatoes,” Qiuwei said. “They rarely eat expensive leafy vegetables. Until now, I often perform with the art troupe, so I still have some understanding of these things. That’s why I wanted to give the children as many varieties of vegetables as possible.”

Xingle then said with ill intentions, “If you ask me, Jiang Xun has a solution. Most children don’t like green peppers. She chopped the green peppers into a sauce to coat the the chicken thighs.

Wasn’t this mocking Qiuwei and Qiao Ni for saying such nice things but not putting in the effort to let the children eat more vegetables? Couldn’t the meat and vegetables be cooked together better?

Xingle’s scheme was very transparent.

Anyway, her mother-in-law made chicken soup. It was very nutritious. It was neither a meat dish nor a vegetable dish.

On the other hand, Qiuyi’s mother-in-law made stewed beef with potatoes..
