Zhou Suhua took Little Ni Yun from Ni Cuihua’s arms, “What a cute child she is, what’s her name?”

“Her name is Ni Yun, Yun as in cloud,” Ni Cuihua said.

“Yunyun, little Yunyun. Not only does little Yunyun have a pretty name, but she’s also very beautiful,” Zhou Suhua, who was very fond of Little Ni Yun, said with her eyes full of affectionate smiles. “Oh yes, we also brought a welcome gift for little Yunyun. Meifeng, quickly bring out the gift.”

Wang Meifeng immediately took out a red gift box from her bag.

In the box were a longevity lock and two gold bracelets.

“These gold jewelry must cost at least a thousand yuan,” said Ni Cuihua nervously, “Grandma Guobao, you really don’t need to be so polite, we can’t accept such a big gift!”

“You should accept!” Zhou Suhua smiled, “It’s not something valuable, Ni Yang’s mom. Ni Yang is a living Bodhisattva to our entire family. You must not refuse! Look how pretty our little Yunyun looks wearing these!”

Little Ni Yun, with her fair and plump appearance, was extremely likable. Now, with the gold bracelets and the longevity lock, she looked like a delightful Fuwa doll that had stepped out of a New Year’s painting.

The gold bracelet came with a small bell. Whenever Little Ni Yun moved, the bell would tinkle, producing a pleasant sound that lifted everyone’s spirits.

While Ni Cuihua was entertaining the guests in the living room, Ni Yang went into the kitchen to cook.

It was past ten now. By the time she finished cooking, it would be almost noon, just in time for lunch.

She planned to cook Sour Fish, Braised Pork Belly, spicy fried river snails, and a Roasted Chicken as the main courses.

As for the side dishes, she would make black fungus with milk cabbage, and stir-fried cabbage with vermicelli.

The vermicelli was a gift from Xiaohua. It was homemade and not only healthy and free of pollution, but also had a great texture.

She would also prepare a cold mixed liangpi as a chilled dish.

Ni Yang looked and found a chunk of tofu left over from what Tie Dan’s mother had given her the day before. She decided to make Shrimp and Tofu Soup with it.

Meat and vegetables are paired well, with fish, meat, and chicken all included. Although there are only seven dishes and one soup, it is an incredibly sumptuous meal for the average person during this era.

Once the menu was finalized, Ni Yang started the bread oven and then went to slaughter the big rooster they had bought the day before.

Although Ni Yang looked fair and pretty as a girl, she was very decisive when it came to slaughtering the chicken.

With one hand holding the chicken and the other holding the kitchen knife, the scene was somewhat bloody, but it gave a sense of tranquility.

Wang Meifeng came over to help Ni Yang pluck the chicken’s feathers.

Ni Yang grinned and said, “Auntie Wang, you don’t need to help, I can handle it myself.”

Wang Meifeng laughed and said, “Not a problem, I’m free.”

It wouldn’t be fair for them all to idle around, while Ni Yang had to cook the meal by herself.

Having grown up in the village, Wang Meifeng, even though she’d later moved to the city, was still quite proficient in these chores. She quickly finished plucking the chicken feathers, then washed the chicken and went on to clean the other vegetables. Despite Ni Yang’s efforts to stop her, she carried on.

After washing the vegetables, Wang Meifeng sat down by the stove to start the fire. The flame reflected in Wang Meifeng’s smiling face, while the sound of stir-frying and the delicious aroma began to fill the kitchen.

Despite having eaten Ni Yang’s cooking before, Wang Meifeng couldn’t help but be amazed.

She was truly amazing!

Despite being only seventeen, Ni Yang was already far superior to many adults- she was truly a lady who was equally proficient in the affairs of the hall and the kitchen.

Around noon, Ni Yang had perfectly prepared the seven dishes with one soup.

The dining room table was filled with constant exclamations of admiration.

“Delicious!”

“The taste is spot on.”

“Little Divine Doctor, you’re so amazing!”

Zhou Suhua had never imagined that even river snails could be cooked to be so tasty, after all, they were usually used as duck feed.

The braised pork belly was sweet and fragrant, tender and rich but not greasy, melting in the mouth.

The roasted chicken was incredibly crispy, baked to perfection with a tender inside, and each bite resulted in a delicious burst of flavor.

Of all, the most outstanding one was the Sour Fish. The caudal fish was coated with starch and egg liquid, which made it tender, refreshing, appetizing, and perfect for eating with rice. Combined with the sour and spicy taste of pickled cabbage and hot pepper, it was mouthwateringly good. After finishing the fish, one would surely crave to drink all the soup.

Even at a fancy restaurant, it would be hard to find such delicious dishes!

Who would have thought that a beautiful young girl with impressive medical skills can cook so well too!

The taste was simply astonishing!

“Little Divine Doctor, how did you roast this chicken?” Yang Changzheng curiously inquired. He didn’t see any grill in the house, and since the chicken was served hot, it couldn’t have been bought. Moreover, things like roasted chicken or duck were in short supply and hard to find.
