Chapter 199: Pork Belly Chicken

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

When it was almost noon, an alluring fragrance wafted out of the Shen family’s kitchen.

The moment Ji Zhao placed the prepared butcher’s dish on the table in the central room, everyone looked over curiously.

‘Ah Tao, what are you making?” Looking at the two large clay pots on the table, Eldest Sister-in-law Shen could not help but ask curiously, “This butcher’s dish smells fragrant and spicy?

“1n order to take care of everyone’s taste, I specially made two flavors of the butcher’s dish,” Ji Zhao explained with a smile. “The one on the left is butcher’s dish, and the one on the right is pork belly chicken.’

Different tastes, but each had its own merits.

Apart from that, Ji Zhao also made pot-cooked pork and ground delicacies. In short, the dishes placed on the table were fragrant and dazzling.

‘Don’t just stand there. Sit down and eat!” Zhao Lanhua quickly called out. “Sit down, sit down. Ah Tao, you’ve been busy all morning. Sit down and eat!”

‘Mother, you guys eat first.” Ji Zhao smiled sweetly and explained softly, “I want to give Shen Yao a bowl of pork belly chicken soup.’

Looking at Ji Zhao’s back, Aunt Guihua couldn’t help but praise, “Lanhua, you’re lucky. Your three daughters-in-law are all good! I’m really envious!”

‘Yes, I also feel very blessed. These children are very obedient. I don’t have to worry at all,” Zhao Lanhua said happily. “Sister Guihua, don’t just stand there. Quickly try this pkor belly chicken soup. I’m not bragging. Our Ah Tao’s culinary skills are top-notch!”

‘The pork belly is refreshing, and the chicken meat is fresh and tender.” After drinking a bowl of pork belly chicken soup, Shen Yao was full of praise. “The soup is sweet and delicious.”

‘Then do you want another bowl?” Ji Zhao asked with a smile.

‘Of course.”

After drinking two bowls of pork belly chicken soup in a row, Shen Yao really could not eat anymore.

‘Ah Tao, your culinary skills are getting better and better Shen Yao praised from the bottom of his heart.

‘Thank you for the compliment.” Ji Zhao narrowed her eyes and smiled gently.

After the annual pig slaughtering, all the villagers in Shanghe Village began to prepare for the upcoming New Year.

Ji Zhao was not idle either. She helped Zhao Lanhua marinate the cured meat and filled the intestines to make sausages.

“I’ve never heard of such a way of eating before.” Sister-in-law Shen, who was helping wash the intestines, could not help but sigh. “Ah Tao is still the best.’ ‘Sister-in-law, this method is actually not rare. It’s just that this method is a little time-consuming and laborious, so no one is willing to try it.” Ji Zhao explained as she chopped the meat, ‘However, the sausages after drying are really delicious. Whether it’s steamed, cooked, or stir-fried, the taste won’t be too bad.’

‘After the new year, I plan to try selling a portion of it in the shop.” Ji Zhao smiled and revealed her plan. “If we can sell it at a high price, we’ll think of a way to expand the scale of our business.”

‘Ah Tao, didn’t you already open an oil extraction workshop with Young Master Qin?” Second Sister-in-law Shen asked curiously. ‘Ah Tao, aren’t you too tired now that you’ve opened a shop and started a workshop?”

‘Second Sister-in-law, why would it be tiring to earn money?” Ji Zhao could not help but smile. “I have to earn more money so that I can rebuild the Earth God’s golden body as soon as possible!”

If it weren’t for the Earth God’s repeated reminders, she wouldn’t have been able to turn misfortune into fortune and even help the Shen family.

Eldest Sister-in-law Shen and Second Sister-in-law Shen exchanged glances at the same time. Finally, Eldest Sister-in-law Shen said slowly, ‘Ah Tao, actually, your Second Sister-in-law and I have something to tell you.”

‘Yes?”

Ji Zhao raised her eyebrows in confusion. At this moment, the two sisters-in-law stuffed a pouch into her arms.

‘This is?”

‘When you first married into the family, there was some unhappiness between the three of us.” Eldest Sister-in-law Shen looked into Ji Zhao’s eyes and said earnestly, “But that’s all in the past. After spending so much time together, although we’re sisters-in-law, our relationship is similar to that of biological sisters.’

‘IAS for these two pouches, one contains a gift from your second sister-in-law and me. The other contains ten taels of silver. It’s also the money we saved up together.”

‘This? Eldest Sister-in-law, Second Sister-in-law, what are you doing?” Ji

Zhao was even more confused. “I don’t lack money!”

‘Ah Tao, don’t be anxious. Let Eldest Sister-in-law finish speaking first.” Second Sister-in-law Shen smiled and comforted her.

‘According to the rules of Shanghe Village, if there’s a new wife in the family, the sister-in-laws in the family should give her a greeting gift. Take the silver bracelet in this pouch as our greeting gift to compensate you. As for the ten taels of silver in the other pouch, it’s a token of our gratitude to the Earth God.’

‘Mother has already told us that if it weren’t for the Earth God showing you a dream, your second brother wouldn’t have been able to escape this calamity. Second Sister-in-law Shen looked at Ji Zhao with reddened eyes. “Ah Tao, thank you.”

‘Ah Tao, if it weren’t for you, the pastry shop wouldn’t be so prosperous.”

Eldest Sister-in-law Shen looked at her and said sincerely, “Thank you.’

‘Eldest Sister-in-law, Second Sister-in-law…” The smile on Ji Zhao’s face was as sweet as ever, but her voice involuntarily choked. “1 should be the one thanking you. Thank you for for forgiving me and accepting me.”

When Zhao Lanhua walked into the kitchen, she saw her three silly daughter-in-laws laughing and crying.

“What’s going on?” Zhao Lanhua did not know whether to laugh or cry when she saw this scene.

‘Mother!” The three of them shouted in unison. The atmosphere was harmonious.

Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, Shen Yao welcomed his second treatment.

Ji Zhao stood nervously beside the bed, not even daring to breathe loudly.

Immortal Crane carefully cut the gauze wrapped around his left knee and carefully examined the wound.

‘From the looks of it, the wound has almost healed, but the medicinal effect of the gold powder is very strong. Just in case, I think we should peel off the flesh again. If there’s still rotten flesh on it, it’s best to cut it off.”

Just listening to it made Ji Zhao feel extreme pain.

Shen Yao, who was lying on the bed, did not change his expression.

“It’s all up to you, senior.”

“I’ve already asked your father to make a wopden stick.” Immortal Crane thought for a moment and picked up the extremely smooth wooden stick from the table at the side. He handed it to Shen Yao. “The pain this time will definitely be stronger than the last time, so I suggest you bite the stick in case you can’t withstand the pain.”

‘No need.” Shen Yao declined with a smile.

‘Now is not the time to put on a brave front,” the Immortal Crane said earnestly. “Now that new flesh has grown on your knees, the reason why you could endure the pain earlier was because the flesh that wrapped around the bones had already rotted. However, it’s different this time.. Do you understand?”
