Chapter 891: Chapter 889: “Delicacies

With some curiosity, some anticipation, and a bit of disbelief, Zhou Yaling quickly got up and changed clothes.

If possible, how could she miss a bowl of the noodles that Candy was cooking for the first time?

On the other side, Li Xuanyu, who had just gotten up, showed a surprised expression after hearing Zero’s announcement.

Li Xuanyu glanced back at Mo Jingchun, who was equally surprised, and knew that it was Candy’s first time cooking noodles.

No matter how the taste is, this is a good thing.

Nobody is born knowing how to make a table full of delicious dishes; it’s all learned slowly.

The difference lies in that some people, no matter how hard they learn, their food always tastes mediocre.

Don’t even mention the appearance.

“Don’t look at me; I remember the last time Candy picked up a spatula, it was when she took it to play mud in childhood.”

“Playing mud?” Li Xuanyu twitched his mouth slightly, feeling a bit incredulous.

Mo Jingchun shrugged helplessly and said, “Yeah, playing mud, Candy and Xiang’Er together loved doing it the most.”

“Now that they’re in elementary school, they don’t play anymore.”

“We should quickly wash up and head downstairs; I feel Candy isn’t reliable.”

Zhou Yaling was the first to go downstairs.

As Zhou Yaling walked into the kitchen, she saw Candy turning off the stove.

Upon hearing footsteps, Candy turned around with surprise and said:

“Sis, you’re up.”

“Perfect timing, the noodles are hot; can you help us serve them in bowls and bring them to the dining table?”

After hearing this, Zhou Yaling didn’t agree immediately but first looked at the noodles in the pot.

It looked like regular noodles, and there were also small greens inside.

“Did you add oil and salt?”

“Of course! Zero taught me how to cook the noodles.”

Behind her, Zero widened her eyes.

She hardly said three words throughout, so why was she taking the blame?

“No! I was just standing by and watching.”

Zhou Yaling curiously looked at Zero and Candy.

What’s up with these two little ones today?

Especially Candy, getting up first on a Saturday.

At this moment, Li Xuanyu and Mo Jingchun arrived late.

“I heard there are noodles to eat; is that true?”

Mo Jingchun squeezed into the kitchen, just like Zhou Yaling, and looked at the noodles in the pot first.

From the outside, they seemed normal.

“What are you all staring at? Eat.” Candy stepped aside, signaling her brother and sisters to quickly serve and eat.

Candy’s expectant little eyes made Mo Jingchun eager to serve himself half a bowl.

Kidding, without knowing what kind of noodles they were, taking a whole bowl would be digging a hole for himself.

Try it first; if it doesn’t work, just don’t eat it.

Sitting at the dining table, Mo Jingchun and the others looked at each other, none of them being the first to pick up the chopsticks.

Until…

“Brother, you try it first and then give your opinion.”

Being named by Candy, Mo Jingchun sighed and picked up the chopsticks from the table.

Under everyone’s gaze, Mo Jingchun tasted a bite.

The next second, everyone saw Mo Jingchun’s expression change.

“Tasty!”

“There must’ve been chicken essence added.”

Speaking of which, Mo Jingchun also guided, “Candy, you added too much chicken essence; next time just use half when you cook noodles.”

“Oh, oh, I’ll remember.”

After saying that, Candy turned her gaze toward her sister.

Being watched by everyone, Zhou Yaling looked at her brother with full suspicion.

After being tricked once, Zhou Yaling suddenly grinned, called Little Grey under the dining table with a gesture.

“Little Grey, come here.”

Seeing the disdainful look that Little Grey gave to the noodles on the floor, wagging its tail and turning around to leave, not even staying under the table, Zhou Yaling laughed.

“I knew it.”

Sure enough, after the plot was exposed, Mo Jingchun could no longer keep up the act and immediately stood up to gulp down a glass of water.

“Cough, cough, it’s too salty!”

“Candy, how much salt did you add?”

Feeling the resentful gaze from her brother, Candy paused and said:

“Not much, just half a bag.”

Half a bag???

The three of them were stunned.

After a long silence, Mo Jingchun sighed.

“Half a bag of salt, this is going to be the end of me.”

“You two chefs, slowly explain to Candy, I’m going to order delivery.”

“One Qian Zhubin is enough, don’t let Candy turn into another Qian Zhubin.”

Unconvinced, Li Xuanyu raised an eyebrow, still picked up the chopsticks and tried a small bite.

“Hmm… indeed, the salt was added a bit too much.”

Seeing Candy still stunned, Li Xuanyu smiled softly.

“Candy, you cooked the noodles yourself, aren’t you going to try a taste?”

Being watched by four pairs of eyes, Candy chuckled awkwardly.

Knowing clearly it’s not tasty and still tasting, wouldn’t that be foolish?

“Hehehe. I don’t want to, I won’t be tricked.”

Zhou Yaling rolled her eyes dramatically and said, “Sis, let’s forget it, Candy’s clever.”

“Come, come, sis will tell you, you do have the talent for cooking noodles; just use a little less salt next time and it’ll be perfect.”

“For the first time cooking noodles, mistakes are normal.”

While speaking, Zhou Yaling suddenly raised her brow, “Wait a minute!”

“Zero was with Candy, right?”

“With you around, how come Candy added so much salt.”

Mentioned by Zhou Yaling, Li Xuanyu and Mo Jingchun also looked at Zero.

Zhou Yaling’s words made sense; Candy might not know, but Zero should!

“Sigh~”

Knowing she couldn’t avoid it, Zero spread her hands helplessly and said:

“I’m helpless too; before I could speak, Candy already poured half a bag of salt into the pot.”

At this moment, Mo Jingchun asked with a knowing smile:

“So, you knew the noodles would be very salty?”

Oh no~

Caught by the boss’s main point.

Looking at Zero, who lowered her head and said nothing, Mo Jingchun felt like crying.

Oh my, what did he create this cute artificial intelligence for, basically to get revenge on him.

Learning all the wrong things, just like him, causing trouble for no reason.

“Sigh~ It’s my fault, it’s all learned from me.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Yaling and Li Xuanyu nodded in agreement.

Isn’t it learned from you?

A half-hour later, the delivery arrived.

Enjoying the delicious lean meat porridge, Candy smiled brightly and said:

“Delivery is definitely tastier.”

“By the way, brother, the school organized a piano competition, should I sign up to participate?”

Mo Jingchun glanced up at Candy and asked:

“Do you still need to ask me? If you want to participate, go ahead; if not, even your class teacher won’t force you.”

“After all, your class teacher knows that if you participate in the piano competition, it’s totally discouraging for other students.”

“Oh, that’s what I thought too, not interesting at all.”

Paused for a moment, Candy smiled again and said, “A chubby from our class signed up; he’s quite good, recently playing level 5 piano pieces.”

“His name is Cheng Ping’an, don’t keep calling him chubby.”

“It’s okay, other than the teacher, everyone calls him chubby.”

Achoo~

Cheng Ping’an, who was practicing piano, suddenly sneezed unexpectedly.
