Chapter 16: Third Brother Is Really Influential
With that thought in mind, Su Ning instructed Su Cheng, "Fifth Brother, go and fetch some garlic sprouts. I'll start cutting the vegetables. It'll be quicker that way."
"Sure."
Su Cheng left the kitchen and headed to the backyard.
In that moment, he no longer felt conflicted. If the plump girl wanted to show off her skills in front of their third brother, he would let her.
It would be a shame to waste the food!
After all, they weren't receiving a free meal. She had used their firewood and water, and even occupied Third Brother's room!
Qin Zhenzhen found a large bowl and deftly cracked six eggs into it. She added water, salt, and flour, mixing everything evenly with chopsticks.
Her movements were as fluid as flowing water and clouds, clearly indicating her vast experience.
Su Ning's eyes widened.
How generous she was!
With so many eggs and such a large quantity of flour, they would have an abundance of egg pancakes!
Their third brother must have played a significant role in this.
But why did Qin Zhenzhen's movements appear more nimble than before?
The ratio of batter to water was just right. There was no need for Su Ning to guide her at all.
Something seemed off. The plump girl seemed different from before.
Why did she have to prepare such a large quantity in one go?
As Su Ning lit the fire and heated the pot, Qin Zhenzhen had already cut the garlic sprouts and mixed them with the shredded vegetables.
She even added a few drops of spirit water into the mixture as a special touch.
The aroma of the dish was enticing, and it seemed to have a delightful taste. Qin Zhenzhen believed it could serve as both a nutritious solution and a seasoning, enhancing the umami flavor of the food.
She was still experimenting with the use of spirit water.
Qin Zhenzhen added lard to the pot and spread it evenly, coating the pork throughout. Then, using a spoonful of paste, she spread it onto a small piece of flatbread.
Su Ning skillfully controlled the fire, and Qin Zhenzhen worked swiftly. She flipped one piece of flatbread and placed it in the pot, immediately adding another piece to the bottom.
Soon, the large pot was filled with flatbread, filling the entire kitchen with its distinct aroma.
The enticing fragrance tempted Su Cheng, causing him to enter the kitchen multiple times to take a peek.
He didn't mind Qin Zhenzhen's lavishness now. After all, it was her own choice, so he didn't feel any heartache.
He just wanted to savor the pancakes as soon as possible.
Observing that the batter in the bowl was nearly used up, Su Cheng swiftly carried the heated porridge to the dining table, washed the bowls and chopsticks, and prepared for the meal.
Tonight marked the first time he had set up Qin Zhenzhen's bowl and chopsticks.
Witnessing Qin Zhenzhen's skilled and rapid movements, Su Ning couldn't believe her eyes.
Not a single flatbread was burnt, and each one was perfectly fried. Furthermore, they looked and smelled absolutely delicious.
