Chapter 860: Extra: Chu Tianye (29)
Translator: Lordbluefire
Su Qingyan clenched her fingers, her gaze deepening. She had worked hard to build her current good reputation, and she couldn’t let it be ruined like this.
Iler sister’s jealousy, withholding her sister’s living expenses; if this reputation spread, how could she continue to live?
Mother Su stared at her, her face darkening as she spoke, “I understand that you’re fighting for favor, but you shouldn’t have done this! Besides withholding Su Yan’s tuition, have you done anything else?”
Su Qingyan immediately shook her head and swore, “No, Mom, 1 really haven’t! The reason I withheld my sister’s tuition was because I genuinely wanted her to come back and submit to you…”
Mother Su stared at her. “Is that true?”
“It’s true, 1 swear,” Su Qingyan sighed. “Mom, if you care about the comments on the internet, you can explain that it was me. I don’t want to see them insulting you…”
Mother Su clenched her jaw.
She stared at Su Qingyan for a while before finally saying, “No need.”
Su Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
She glanced at Mother Su, and suddenly a flash of determination crossed her eyes. She took out her phone and sent a text message…
An hour and a half later, it was lunchtime.
Chu Tianye and Su Yan went outside, and both of them knew that the program team hadn’t prepared lunch. After all, the idea was to show everyone their daily lives, so they didn’t mind.
The movie star’s family had been cooking downstairs. Xiao Xiao’s mother was now a homemaker, responsible for cooking for the family. The home-cooked meals she made looked quite ordinary.
Xiao Xiao and his father exchanged a glance, both of them showing a helpless expression.
The barrage had already deduced a lot from that single glance.
—Haha, let me translate:
Xiao Xiao: Dad, you should eat first.
Xiao Xiao’s dad: Son, what are you saying? Let’s give it to you…
I just want to know how bad my mother-in-law’s cooking is, that my husband and father-in-law are so embarrassed!
Hilarious! I’m having so much fun watching this! I saw Xiao’s mom frying vegetables with vinegar, and it seems she added sugar…
While the movie star’s family was cooking, the other families’ meals were relatively simple.
One group of families took out instant noodles, cooked them while saying, “My parents are lazy, they didn’t get up early to make breakfast for me when 1 was a kid, so I cooked noodles for myself. Even though people say instant noodles aren’t nutritious, I added an egg, some vegetables, and ham, so it’s nutritious, right? Our family of three loves to eat them!”
The barrage was filled with laughter.
The rest of the families ordered takeout, and surprisingly, none of them cooked anything delicious.
The living room was filled with the aroma of food.
Everyone placed their homemade dishes on the dining table to create a stark contrast.
After Su Yan and Chu Tianye came downstairs, they glanced at the dining table. Chu Tianye picked up his phone and asked, “Takeout?”
“Unhealthy. Do you like noodles?” Su Yan raised an eyebrow.
Chu Tianye replied, “You cook?”
The way he said it made Su Yan suddenly feel the urge. “Looking down on someone? I’ll cook! When I was abroad, I worked in a Chinese restaurant! I learned a lot from the chef!” She rolled up her sleeves and, before entering the kitchen, glanced at Chu Tianye. “You can be my assistant.”
“Alright.”
Chu Tianye followed Su Yan into the kitchen.
Su Yan first opened the refrigerator and found that there were plenty of ingredients inside. The condiments were also well-stocked.
After some thought, she suddenly looked at Chu Tianye. “Do you like Sichuan cuisine?”
Chu Tianye raised an eyebrow. “Can you make it?”
“Yes, then it’s Sichuan cuisine.”
Su Yan took out a lot of chili peppers, sliced them, and began cooking.
Chu Tianye helped by washing the vegetables and passing them to her. While Su Yan was cutting the vegetables, she kept her head down. Her handiwork was very skilled; the potato slices were not only very thin but also uniform. She looked like an experienced cook.
Soon, she made a dish of spicy chicken.
The strong aroma filled the air, drawing everyone in the living room’s attention.
Someone couldn’t resist and took a deep breath. “It smells amazing!”
Then, everyone crowded into the kitchen, watching as Su Yan brought out one Sichuan dish after another – Kung Pao Chicken, Boiled Beef Slices in Hot Chili Oil, and Spicy Hot Pot…
Even a plate of greens she stir-fried was so appetizing, with a glossy sheen and not a bit limp. It was worlds apart from the small, withered greens that the movie star’s mother had made, making everyone eager to take a bite.
Chu Tianye placed the dishes on the dining table.
Everyone gathered around.
“Miss Su, may we try it?”
Someone asked, and Su Yan smiled, “Let’s eat together.”
So everyone’s chopsticks began to land on the dishes she had cooked.
“Oh my God, it’s so fragrant!” “This boiled beef is incredibly tender!” Su Yan’s family of three, coming down, saw this scene.
Mother Su sneered.
She loved Sichuan cuisine the most, so was Su Yan trying to please her?
After all, she had just publicly acknowledged her identity. Was Su Yan trying to mend their relationship?
Mother Su was annoyed, thinking about how she should respond if Su Yan invited her to join the meal….
