Chapter 148: A hot meal
Zhang Xiao did not reply him. After entering the kitchen, she first wandered around the place, then looked around once more. She discovered that there were so few ingredients inside. Furthermore, the Ning Family servants did not normally use up all of the ingredients required to cook them, so after feeling that it was a pity to throw them away, they borrowed the master\'s refrigerator and placed it inside.
Even the rice was for servants.
Ning Zhi Yuan had not eaten at home for many years, so he would not prepare any food.
She first washed the rice pot and scooped some rice into the small rice bucket.
After the stew was done, she went to get two eggplants and peeled them, preparing to make the braised eggplant. The braised eggplant could also avoid peeling, but she felt that if she peeled it, the braised eggplant would taste better.
Since the ingredients were limited, she could only cook something simple.
There was no meat in the fridge, but there were eggs and two scallions. She also planned to fry some eggs and some onions as one of the dishes.
Although she needed to cook a few dishes, they were all simple vegetarian foods without any meat. They could be cooked quickly. When the meal was done, she would also be done.
In the great hall, the Aunt Lan looked at Ning Zhi Yuan who was in front of his eyes and smelled the fragrance of the food, causing him to remember the hungry bug in his stomach. He could not help but stand up and walk towards the kitchen.
Less than half an hour after Mu Ya left, she would be there to find Zhang Xiao. Coincidentally, Ning Zhi Yuan was going to the kitchen, so he held onto his niece\'s hand and went along with her. Mu Ya didn\'t resist, because she knew that her uncle was taking her to find her mother at this time.
"Ring, ring, ring."
When Ning Zhi Yuan was leading Mu Ya away, Aunt Lan\'s phone started to ring.
When she looked at the caller ID, she saw that it was the Third Young Master who had been hit by General Xie. So she jogged out of the main house with her cell phone and answered the phone in the yard.
"Aunt Lan, where did you go? Why aren\'t you back yet? " Mu Chen should have just woken up from his sleep, his voice a little hoarse.
"Third Young Master, I don\'t think we should go back that quickly. Miss Zhang is cooking for Young Master Ning, we were brought back to his house, which is also his mother\'s house."
On the other side of the phone, Mu Chen was silent for a minute. When Aunt Lan thought that he had hung up and suspiciously picked up his phone, he asked: "What happened?"
Ning Zhi Yuan actually brought Zhang Xiao and the others back to Ning Family.
Did the sun rise in the west?
"I don\'t know either." Aunt Lan had been tormented by her master\'s actions these past two days. Her intelligence could no longer keep up with her master\'s pace. She told Mu Chen about how she had first met Shen Ying Er, then met Ning Zhi Yuan, and then was tricked into the car by Ning Zhi Yuan and brought back to Ning Family.
After Mu Chen heard this, he calmly asked, "Zhi Yuan didn\'t hurt Zhang Xiao right? Has he said anything to Zhang Xiao? "
"Nope."
Aunt Lan answered quickly, "Young Master Ning is pretty good to Miss Zhang today, but I think there\'s a problem with it."
Mu Chen thought that Ning Zhi Yuan\'s warm attitude towards Zhang Xiao was because he knew that Zhang Xiao was her little sister from back then. Take good care of Mu Ya, Zhi Yuan will send you back in a while. "
With Mu Ya here, he believed that Ning Zhi Yuan wouldn\'t hurt Zhang Xiao either. It could be said that Mu Ya was Zhang Xiao\'s protective talisman.
Mu Chen took the initiative to hang up the phone.
When the Aunt Lan heard the sound of the end of the line, she muttered a few words and turned back inside the house.
She turned her head instinctively and saw two middle-aged women coming in with a bag of something each. It was one of Ning Family\'s two servants. After they finished their work, they made an appointment to go shopping.
When they saw Aunt Lan, the two of them were startled for a moment, but seeing that Ning Zhi Yuan\'s car was in the courtyard, they guessed that it was someone their Young Master had brought back, and laughed as they walked towards Aunt Lan.
After the three of them asked each other about it, they entered the house together.
After smelling the fragrance of the food, the servant of the Ning Family asked the Aunt Lan: "Who is cooking?"
"Young Master Ning has not eaten yet. Miss Zhang is helping him cook."
"Has the young master eaten yet?" The two servants exclaimed in a low voice, appearing very surprised. They thought that their young master had already woken up and was going out to eat and drink his fill.
Aunt Lan glanced at the two of them, and said unhappily: "Seriously, since you two are working in Ning Family, you should at least make me a meal to eat. Young Master Ning wanted to eat it just now, but Miss Zhang could not stand it, so he volunteered to help him cook. "
One of the servants answered, "Young Master has never dined at home. He did not give any special orders, so we do not need to help him cook."
While they were talking, the two servants rushed to the kitchen.
Zhang Xiao had already prepared some food, and was holding onto a dish as she walked out. The plate was filled with stir-fried potatoes with shredded pork and the plate with red-braised eggplant. Ning Zhi Yuan brought Mu Ya and followed out, with a small plate of fried eggs in his other hand. There were even some scallion flowers on the eggs, making them smell even more fragrant.
"Young Master."
"Young Master."
The two servants called out respectfully. One of them said, "Young Master, you want to eat at home. Why didn\'t you inform us in advance so that we can help you cook?"
Ning Zhi Yuan coldly glanced at the two of them, and said: "You two go and busy yourselves, I don\'t need your service."
The two servants did not dare to stay and respectfully left.
After Zhang Xiao arranged the dishes, she turned around and went into the kitchen to bring out the food.
Ning Zhi Yuan couldn\'t wait to sit down at the table. Seeing that her uncle had sat down, Mu Ya wanted to sit down too, but unfortunately, she couldn\'t reach the chair. Seeing that, Ning Zhi Yuan picked her up and placed her on the chair beside him. But Mu Ya was too small, even if he sat on the chair, it was still out of his reach, so she immediately crawled up.
"Mu Ya, be careful. Don\'t fall." Zhang Xiao helped Ning Zhi Yuan fill the bowl of food, and when he turned around, he saw the little fellow standing on the chair.
After placing the bowl of food in front of Ning Zhi Yuan, she turned around and went into the kitchen and brought out a small bowl, planning to feed Mu Ya.
"NINGHAI, the ingredients in your kitchen are limited. I can only make these few dishes on the spot, you can also eat them on the spot." After Zhang Xiao finished her meal, she sat back down at the table and tried to feed Mu Ya. Mu Ya\'s main dish right now was still porridge, so he rarely ate.
She was just joining in for the fun. When she saw her uncle eating, she wanted to eat too. When Zhang Xiao was feeding her, she was also very appreciative of her looks. It\'s just that eating food isn\'t as fast as eating congee.
As Ning Zhi Yuan ate the piping hot food, he replied, "I won\'t pick my mouth, I\'ll eat whatever you make. Ever since Tong Tong got married, I haven\'t eaten a steaming hot meal at home, and I don\'t want to eat at home either.
Seeing that he was eating happily, and hearing him say this, Zhang Xiao laughed and said: "NINGHAI should find a good woman to get married. With a home, once you finish working and come back, you will be able to eat steaming hot food, and feel the warmth of a family. Home, has always been a place where people hide from the wind. "
