“Let’s eat, finish the food.” Chu Qiao used the serving chopsticks to pick up some food for Chu Peng, but not for Chu Yuanzhi. It was not like her father didn’t have hands. 

Chu Peng remained silent, and buried his head focused on eating. He felt that his stupid older sister’s cooking skills had improved again. 

This crab rice cake was so delicious that his tongue was about to fall off. The other dishes were also tasty, and everything was flavourful.

He felt a little bit of regret. If he knew earlier, he would have kept his stupid older sister for a few more years. But now, Gu Ye got the advantage. 

“It’s delicious. Qiao Qiao, you cooked very well ah.” 

Chu Yuanzhi tasted the sweet and sour pork tenderloin, and his face changed slightly, looking at Chu Qiao with a somewhat shocked gaze.

His daughter’s cooking skills had improved by leaps and bounds, it was comparable to her nainai’s* cooking skills. 

*Nainai (奶奶) : Paternal grandmother, father’s mother. 

Especially this sweet and sour pork dish, it tasted exactly the same as the one made by his mother, he could not tell the difference. 

Chu Yuanzhi ate with gusto. His mouth tasted sour and sweet, but his eyes were sore. No one knew that his favorite dish was sweet and sour pork tenderloin. 

But since his mother passed away from illness, he had never eaten any sweet and sour pork tenderloin that tasted to his liking. 

It was impossible to eat this in the countryside. And after marrying Sun Yinxiu, this woman didn’t even do household chores, let alone cook sweet and sour pork tenderloin for him.

After being with He Jihong, he didn’t dare to mention what he liked to eat. They all prioritized the tastes of He Jihong and Xu Bilian. 

Even now, He Jihong didn’t know what Chu Yuanzhi liked to eat and thought that he was not picky about food. 

But He Jihong didn’t know that Chu Yuanzhi had lived a luxurious life since he was young, and had a mother with excellent cooking skills. How could it be possible for him to not be picky about food? 

On the contrary to what everyone knows, Chu Yuanzhi was a very finicky eater. But he was forced to face reality that he was not qualified to be picky, it was already good if he could fill his stomach. 

After more than twenty years, Chu Yuanzhi once again tasted the familiar sweet and sour pork tenderloin. He was deeply moved and couldn’t express the feeling in his heart. He turned his head and wiped the corner of his eyes, he missed his mother. 

Although his mother was just a concubine, she was beautiful like a flower, considerate, and also good at cooking. She was highly valued among the concubines, and even brought this illegitimate son to live a good life. 

He had never suffered since childhood, and although his mother appeared to be soft, she protected him really well just like a big mountain. 

As soon as his mother left, the big mountain was also gone, and Chu Yuanzhi suffered from the fickleness of human nature. 

Now that he was middle-aged and had two children, he still missed his mother. If his mother was still alive, he would definitely not have lived a hard life. 

His father was so cruel, he abandoned him and his mother and fled to the foreign country without any news for decades. It was still unknown whether he was still alive or not? 

Chu Yuanzhi sniffed hard, he took out a handkerchief from his pocket, wiped the corner of his eyes, and ate a few more bites of sweet and sour pork tenderloin. 

Only then did he realize that his daughter and son-in-law were looking at him. 

So he just smiled embarrassedly and awkwardly explained, “This sweet and sour pork tenderloin tastes very good, just like the one that Qiao Qiao’s nainai made.” 

“Then eat more. Dad can also try the other dishes, everything Qiao Qiao made is delicious.” 

Gu Ye enthusiastically served the food, and scooped a bowl of winter melon soup with pork ribs. He also scooped a bowl for his brother-in-law. 

Chu Peng didn’t even lift his head, as he was concentrating on eating the food. In the future, he would come to his stupid older sister’s place more often.

“Thank you…… Jiefu.” 

*Jiefu (姐夫) : older sister’s husband. 

After hesitating for a moment, Chu Peng called him jiefu. A man could bend and stretch, so it was not a big deal to call him jiefu. 

“The foods that your older sister cooked are delicious, right? You can come here often to eat in the future ah. Your school is also close from here, so you can come over to eat lunch. No need to return home. It is a waste of time, since your home is farther away.” 

Gu Ye was so happy after being coaxed with the title ‘jiefu’ that he enthusiastically served his brother-in-law some food.
