Guide to raise my cutie husbands - Chapter 977: Buy the barren mountain

Chapter 977: Buy the barren mountain

With Yu Dong’s help, it did not take long for the mers to whip a sumptuous meal. As Yu Dong placed the last dish on the table, she turned to look at Yu Tong and her friends before saying, ” The meal is done!” 

Sister Kang and the others were dying to hear these words, the second Yu Dong called them for dinner, they immediately rose to their feet and rushed to the table in a hurry. From the second Yu Dong started cooking the pork belly, all sorts of delicious scents were flowing out of the window of the kitchen making the rats inside the stomachs of these hungry wolves go crazy.

As the three women rushed towards the dining table, they were surprised to see the feast on the table. Though they looked like ordinary home-cooked meals, for some reason the scent coming from those dishes was enough to make them drool. The three women did not come from a good background and thus they never cared about what kind of meals they ate ——as long as they could fill their bellies, it was enough.

However, now that they were looking at the meal prepared by the Yu family, they all felt that they were living a bit too frugally. Though they were not exactly rich with their hard work they were no longer as poor as they were when they were young.

They worked so hard and yet they saved all the money instead of buying something good to eat for their families! Maybe they will think of a way to use a little of their savings to have a decent meal once a month.

Sister Kang and the rest took a seat as they picked up their chopsticks, though the dishes were simple, they were really fragrant. Just the scent alone invigorated their appetite and it also made them feel energized. It was only then did Sister Kang realised that the vegetables grown by the Yu family were not something simple.

Gong Shun looked at the dishes in front of her and then praised Chen Mi for his cooking, “Brother-in-law, you are really one heavenly cook. I thought Sister Dong was good but you are even better!” She then turned to look at Yu Tong and enviously said, ” You are so lucky that you live in such a good family and have such skilled brothers-in-law.”

Her husband never learned to cook because he thought that he was way above the rest. And now that he was married to a simple daily wage earner, her husband could hardly cook rice without leaving half of the rice grains uncooked. Gong Shun wanted to marry another mer but she was too poor for that what was more her husband had given her three daughters, she couldn’t just kick him to the curb just because he could not cook, now could she?

Next to her, Hou Bo also nodded solemnly and agreed, ” Your cooking is better than my husbands, I swear I give them similar condiments but they can never whip something as good as this.”

Chen Mi beamed happily as he heard the praises which were offered to him by the women, he happily looked at Yu Dong and then bowed his head before accepting the praises, ” Thank you, sisters-in-law, you are really kind. I am not that good.” Though he knew that he was just that good, he did not act boastful in front of others. Instead, he turned to look at Yu Tong and said, ” Sister Tong, you should entertain your friends nicely.”

Yu Tong nodded her head but inwardly she was grumbling. Was there any need for her to be nice to them? When she was not nice those women were drooling like they have never seen a meal as good as this one…if she was to treat them nicely then Yu Tong was worried that they might never leave!

Just as the family was going to start eating dinner Yu Le returned with his daughter. He looked at the feast cooked by his nephews in law and smiled awkwardly before handing the bowl of stir-fried vegetables with chicken breast he said, ” Yuya wanted to eat chicken tonight which is why I cooked this for you, since the taste was good I thought of bringing some for you guys.”

Though Yu Le lived in the same courtyard as the Yu family, he hardly entered the Yu house during lunch and dinner as he did not wish to freeload but today because he was unaware of the fact that the Yu family was entertaining guests he ended up coming when they were having dinner.

” Le come and sit down,” Old Madam Yu was overjoyed when she saw her son, she knew that Yu Le did not want to become a burden which was why he always skipped dinner and lunch at the Yu family. As a mother, she wanted to see Yu Le plump and healthy but because Yu Le refused to eat meals with their family…she could only listen to him.

But now that she had gotten a chance to eat with her son, Old Madam Yu did not wish to let it go. She hurriedly stood up and then invited Yu Le inside before saying, ” These are Tong Tong’s friends come and meet them.”

Yu Le wanted to hand the stir-fried vegetables and leave but in front of Yu Tong’s friends, he could only allow himself to be dragged inside the house by his mother.

When Gong Shun saw Yu Le, she immediately complimented Old Madam Yu, ” Old Madam, uncle is really good-looking. It seems that he inherited his good looks from you.”

Gong Shun was not lying, Old Master Tong was not as good-looking as Old Madam Yu. If Yu Le had inherited his father’s looks, he would have at most been above average but because he looked like his mother, he looked rather charming.

Yu Le blushed upon hearing the praise while Old Madam Yu was really happy. No one hated being praised and as an old lady who hardly got any praise, how can Old Madam Yu be not happy?
