Chapter 157 Do You Remember?
Chapter 157 Do You Remember?
Si Yao did not dare to entrust the important task to the father and daughter, so she took out some celery and beans, intending to let them pick the celery leaves and beans.
"Mom, what is my and Dad's mission?"
"Here." Si Yao took out the beans and celery from the refrigerator and put them on the table for the father and daughter to pick.
"You two pick the celery leaves and beans."
"Okay, Mom, Nian Nian promises to complete the task."
"No problem." Shi Yanzhou looked at Si Yao. He was not a good cook, but three years ago, whenever Shi Yanzhou was free, he would help Si Yao do things within his ability.
He can't cook, but he can wash dishes, wash vegetables and pick vegetables.
"Do it well." Si Yao walked into the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Si Yao is a very good cook, thanks to the fact that she has been cooking since she was a child and through constant experimentation and innovation, she has acquired excellent cooking skills.
Si Yao was afraid of choking Nian Nian and Shi Yanzhou, so she closed the kitchen door.
Si Yao quickly cut the necessary ingredients, heated the oil in a pan and started cooking.
Yanzhou and Nian Nian, who were picking vegetables outside, were not to be outdone and quickly picked the beans.
Shi Yanzhou's movements are very skillful, and his actions are not only fast but also very beautiful and enjoyable.
Shi Yanzhou felt a little unfamiliar at first, but soon he found the familiar feeling.
Shi Yanzhou looked at Nian Nian and found that Nian Nian's movements were also very skillful, and it didn't look like she had just learned them.
"Nian Nian, do you often help your mother pick vegetables?"
"Well, when Nian Nian was at her great-grandmother's house, her great-grandmother taught her a lot of things." Mainly, if Nian Nian was slightly interested in anything, her grandmother would personally teach her.
It is undeniable that Nian Nian was really taught by Si Yao to be very sensible.
"Dad, who taught you how to pick vegetables?" Nian Nian asked.
"Your mother taught me." Shi Yanzhou blurted out.
"Did Nian Nian's mother teach you?"
"Yes, it was Nian Nian's mother who taught Dad."
Shi Yanzhou was born into a wealthy aristocratic family. He could count the number of times he had been in the kitchen since he was a child on one hand.
After Si Yao got married, she shifted her focus to her family. Whenever she had time, she would cook for her husband herself.
Sometimes when he came home early, Shi Yanzhou would see his wife busy, and he would always help her.
At first, I didn’t know how to wash vegetables and didn’t know how to cook. With the teaching of my wife, I learned how to wash and pick vegetables.
While Shi Yanzhou and Nian Nian were picking vegetables, Si Yao had already started cooking.
Si Yao was afraid that Nian Nian would be hungry, so she used one spatula to stir-fry two dishes at the same time.
It was very hot in the kitchen, and the space was small, so Si Yao's forehead was covered with sweat.
Si Yao put the prepared dish on the plate and reached out to put the chopped coriander on the dish to garnish it.
Just as she was about to put it on the dish, Si Yao remembered that Shi Yanzhou never eats coriander, so she put the coriander in her hand back.
Shi Yanzhou and Nian Nian had also picked the vegetables, and Shi Yanzhou was ready to take them into the kitchen.
Nian Nian wanted to help her father, and although she was very small, she picked up the basket full of beans.
Seeing this, Shi Yanzhou was afraid that his precious daughter would be tired, so he quickly took the basket from Nian Nian's hand and said, "Nian Nian, hold it for Daddy."
"Nian Nian Na."
"It's too heavy. Dad can take it."
"Yes, it's just too heavy, so Nian Nian wants to help dad share some of the burden."
Hearing Nian Nian say this, Shi Yanzhou felt warm in his heart, "Thank you Nian Nian, but this is too heavy, Dad can carry it."
"Nian Nian wants to help Dad."
"Dad knows, but Nian Nian is still young now. Can you help Dad when she grows up?"
"But Nian Nian has grown up and can help mom and dad now."
"Well, Dad believes that Nian Nian can help Mom and Dad, but now Nian Nian just needs to be Mom and Dad's little princess."
"Little princess?"
"Well, Nian Nian, just be a happy little princess. Daddy will take care of the rest." Shi Yanzhou touched Nian Nian's cheek.
"Niannian is mom and dad's little princess?" Nian Nian looked at her father, her eyes sparkling with happiness.
"Well, Nian Nian is mom and dad's little princess."
"Give it to Dad."
"Okay." Nian Nian handed the basket to her father.
"Nian Nian is so good."
Hearing her father's praise, Nian Nian showed an extremely happy smile.
"Dad will go to the kitchen to check on Mom first. Can Nian Nian sit here?"
"No, Nian Nian goes with Dad."
Nian Nian suddenly became very clingy and wanted to follow her father all the time.
Shi Yanzhou also enjoyed it. Since his daughter liked to follow him, he would let her follow him.
"Okay, Nian Nian will go with Dad."
Shi Yanzhou walked into the kitchen holding Nian Nian in one hand and holding the freshly picked vegetables in the other.
The moment he walked into the kitchen, Shi Yanzhou just happened to see Si Yao put the coriander in her hand back.
When Yanzhou saw this scene, he felt inexplicably happy.
Before the divorce, Si Yao could really be said to be an excellent wife.
Not only is she gentle and generous, but she also loves him very much.
Knowing that he works very hard, I always think of ways to make all kinds of delicious food for him.
Si Yao had just put the coriander in her hand back when she heard the sound of the door opening.
Hearing the voice, Si Yao looked towards the door and saw Shi Yanzhou walking into the kitchen with dishes in one hand and Nian Nian holding his hand in the other.
"Mother."
"Yeah." Si Yao responded gently.
"Why did you come into the kitchen?"
"Nian Nian and Dad have picked the vegetables."
"Nian Nian is so great."
When I heard the praise from my parents today, my eyes and tone revealed a happiness I had never felt before. I even didn't forget to praise my father in front of my mother.
"Dad is awesome too."
"Yeah, Nian Nian and Dad are both amazing."
"Give it to me." Si Yao stretched out her hand to take the dish from Shi Yanzhou's hand.
The moment Si Yao stretched out her hand, Shi Yanzhou dodged.
When Si Yao saw Shi Yanzhou dodged, she looked at him in confusion.
"Let me do it." Shi Yanzhou let go of Nian Nian's hand, rolled up his sleeves and prepared to cook dinner.
"You're coming?" Si Yao looked at Shi Yanzhou in disbelief.
He had never cooked before. When he thought about it carefully, he did cook once, but it was so horrible that he almost burned down the kitchen.
"Yeah." Shi Yanzhou saw the sweat on Si Yao's face, put down the dish in his hand, took out a handkerchief from his suit pocket and handed it to Si Yao.
"Wipe the sweat off your face."
"Need not."
"Do you need me to wipe it for you?"
"No, no." Si Yao quickly shook her head.
"If you don't need it, just wipe it yourself."
Si Yao didn't want to take it, but since Nian Nian was there, she had no choice but to take the handkerchief and wipe the sweat off her face.
Shi Yanzhou took off his coat and prepared to cook the vegetables he had just picked.
"What do you want to do?"
"Didn't I say that?"
"Do you really... want to cook?" Si Yao swallowed.
"Why are you lying to me?"
"No, no, I'll do it. You go out first." Si Yao didn't want to destroy her own kitchen.
Although the kitchen at home is small, all the things in the house were bought by her one by one.
"Why are you so flustered?"
"How can I not panic? What if you burn down my kitchen?"
"Don't believe me?"
"If I believed you, my kitchen would be in jeopardy."
Seeing Si Yao so excited, Shi Yanzhou chuckled helplessly.
"why are you laughing?"
"It's nothing. Don't worry. The kitchen won't burn down."
"I do not believe."
"Am I that untrustworthy?"
"Who cooked and burned the kitchen? My temple is small and can't stand the turmoil."
"How long has it been? Do you remember?"
"I'm not demented, of course I remember."
"Mom and Dad, what are you talking about? Nian Nian can't understand a word you say." Nian Nian didn't know what her parents were talking about. She looked at her father, then at her mother.
"It's okay, Nian Nian." Shi Yanzhou said.
