Chu Peng pulled the corner of his mouth, and ate the non salty water spinach with chopsticks.

Chu Qiao looked at the couple innocently, scooped the soup and drank several mouthfuls. Her eyes became more innocent. “It’s not salty, I’ve tasted it, it’s just right.”

She took the chopsticks for the water spinach again, chewed it a few times, and said in a panic, “Ah! I forgot to add salt to the water spinach.”

“This hairtail fish is just right, not salty.”

Chu Qiao tasted all the dishes, she deliberately put four tablespoons of salt in the hairtail fish and soup. Water spinach and braised tofu were normal.

She endured the thirst because of salty food, and went to the kitchen to get the salt bowl. She was going to add salt to tofu and water spinach, and said, “Aunt He, the salt you bought this time is not right. It’s not salty at all.”

Chu Peng pulled a lot of tofu from the plate, and then added some water spinach. He continued to eat with his head down. He did not say anything from beginning to the end, but his eyes were smiling.

His sister seemed to have a better brain after she had a fever. She used poison to fight poison. Other people were stupid because of fever, while this stupid woman had burned out her stupidity.

He Jihong held down Chu Qiao’s hand, if she added more salt, then this meal couldn’t be eaten.

“You say the salt is not salty enough?” He Jihong looked at Chu Qiao suspiciously, thinking that she was pretending.

“Yeah, not salty at all.”

Chu Qiao poured some salt into her mouth and ate it like sugar. She didn’t change her face and didn’t pick her eyebrows. He Jihong and Chu Yuanzhi looked at each other, it didn’t seem like she was pretending.

Was her sense of taste really not working?

Chu Yuanzhi coughed a few times and said slowly: “A fever can indeed cause a problem to palate. Qiao Qiao fever was so bad last time. Maybe there was something wrong with her sense of taste.”

“When will it be better?” He Jihong asked anxiously.

“It can be as short as a few days and a half month, or as long as a few years or even a lifetime. It’s hard to say.” Chu Yuanzhi looked at his daughter sympathetically and sighed in his heart.

His daughter’s life was so bad, she got a fever and even lost her sense of taste!

“Dad,  is there something wrong with my tongue? But I don’t feel it. This dish is really bland.”

Chu Qiao continued to pretend that she was innocent, and wanted to add salt to the dishes. He Jihong didn’t see it, and a large spoon of salt was added to the tofu. She was so angry that her temples pricked and her forehead throbbed.

Couldn’t live like this any longer.

“In the future, you can only put half a teaspoon of salt in your cooking, remember?” He Jihong pressed her temples and said with patience.

“Oh.”

Chu Qiao agreed obediently, but she had the final say on what to do.
