“The school’s dinner is also funded by the Qin Yang Corporation. The intention is to relieve the pressure on the students’ families. The school will also provide meals to ensure basic nutrition. The food might not be as rich as the food in schools in the city, but at least the basic nutrition could be guaranteed, so that the students would not eat less nutritious food at home than in school,” Kejia explained.
“However, the children are still growing. After helping their parents with the farm work at night, they have actually consumed a lot of their school dinner. It is difficult for them to concentrate on their studies,” Kejia explained. “We’ve asked around. Usually, when the children help their family with chores, the family will give them some food. Some eat steamed buns with salted vegetables, some drink the porridge left over from dinner, or some drink the leftovers from dinner at home. Those with better conditions can eat an egg.”
“Therefore, after a discussion, the production team felt that since we’re here, we should take this opportunity to let the children eat better at night,” Kejia said. “There are ingredients provided by the production team in the kitchen. Everyone can take whatever they want and make supper for the children to taste. Each group will prepare a dish. At that time, we will mark each dish with a number and let the children choose their favorite dish. The group with the most votes will automatically get the master bedroom. The second place will receive the second bedroom. The third place will get the children’s room, and the fourth place will have to stay in the woodshed.”
According to the original plan, the guests should prepare dinner for the children.
However, they took into consideration that it was already quite late when they arrived.
There was only half an hour for the guests to prepare. It was really not enough.
These guests were unlikely skilled cooks. Giving them half an hour was definitely not enough.
They might become flustered.
That was why they had changed it to preparing supper for the children.
They thought that such a long preparation time should be enough.
Many were dumbfounded when they heard that the competition was going to be like this.
Only Xingle was happy.
Xingle’s in-laws were also businessmen, but they weren’t rich from the start. They had also suffered.
Therefore, her mother-in-law was very good at housework. She couldn’t say that her cooking was delicious, but she definitely knew how to cook.
Xingle glanced at the other three pairs of guests.
There was no need to mention Qiao Ni and Qiuwei.
Both of them were actors and spent most of their time filming outside. They did not have much time at home. How could they have time to cook for themselves?
If they didn’t have time to do it, then they didn’t have time to learn. The two of them definitely didn’t know how to cook.
Jiang Xun and Hanbi were even more so.
Jiang Xun had said that she didn’t know how to cook, and Hanbi didn’t look like someone who could cook.
Only Qiuyi’s group seemed to be their biggest competitor.
As a dancer, Qiuyi was very strict about her figure. She usually only ate boiled vegetables or salads. She didn’t even put salt in them. As long as the food was cooked, it was fine. Some of it didn’t even need to be cooked. There was no skill involved in this kind of food.
However, although Qiuyi’s mother-in-law’s family also ran a business, it wasn’t very big. Usually, the family hired an auntie to clean the house, but she still cooked on a daily basis. She was a very traditional housewife.
She wondered how good Qiuyi’s mother-in-law’s cooking was.
Qiao Ni and Jiang Xun had already lost their competitive edge to Xingle.
Xingle directly agreed that the two groups would fight for third or fourth place.
“However, how are we going to split the pots and stoves?” Jiang Xun asked the main point. “When I passed by the kitchen just now, I took a look. The village chief’s house only has a stove and a big pot.”
“Our production team has provided a portable gas stove and pot. After all, the most important thing is to make supper for the children. If there’s only one pot, and one guest finishes cooking while others haven’t even started, or even if they take turns, the food from the first guest will get cold. That would go against our intentions.”
“Everyone can go to the kitchen to choose the ingredients first,” Kejia said.
Fortunately, the kitchen of the village chief’s house was not small.
It was a little crowded with the four pairs of guests, but there was barely enough room.
On the way there, Hanbi whispered to Jiang Xun, “Jiang Jiang, do you know how to cook?”
Jiang Xun shook her head innocently. “No, Qin Mufeng usually cooks for me.”
At first, Mufeng only knew how to cook chicken noodle soup. Later on, the more he learned, the more he knew how to cook and the better he became.
Mufeng couldn’t compare to a chef.
But he had no problem with ordinary home-cooked dishes.
[Help, why is Big Boss Xun so straightforward? Where did the high EQgo? Is this something that she can tell her mother-in-law the truth about?]
[Although I can’t say it’s absolute, as far as I know, no mother-in-law can tolerate her son cooking for her daughter -in-law at home, and her daughter-in-law doesn’t know how to do anything.]
[Not to mention that Qin Mufeng is someone who doesn’t need to do anything himself since he was young. Now, he has to cook for Jiang Xun, and Jiang Xun doesn’t know how to do anything. No matter how good the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in -law is, Dong Hanbi probably won’t be happy at this time.]
As expected, Hanbi didn’t look too happy.
[Mrs. Qin pouted. Jiang Xun really shouldn’t have said that.]
“Zhenglu is not as good as Mufeng in this aspect. He’s retired now, but I haven’t seen him cooking for me at home!” Hanbi said angrily, “When Mufeng didn’t know how to cook much, he would at least cook chicken soup noodles for you with the chicken soup that Auntie had frozen beforehand. Your dad hasn’t even cooked instant noodles for me before!”
[Help, is Mrs. Qin angry because her husband is not as good as her son?]
[A son can cook for her daughter-in-law, but a husband can’t cook for her.
Mrs. Qin’s brain is quite outstanding!]
[Help, I’m dying of laughter! How could there be such a good mother-in-law like Mrs. Qin!]
[It’s another day of envy for Jiang Xun’s life.]
[If it were my mother-in-law, she would definitely be like what the netizens said. She would think it’s a sin for her son, who did nothing at home before marriage, to cook for his wife after marriage. She’d feel that her son was wronged.]
[That’s why my husband and I order takeout at home. Neither of us cooks, and we didn’t tell our mother-in-law. My mother-in-law thinks that it’s a sin for me to let her son eat takeout. As a woman, I should cook for her son, just like how she serves my father-in-law.]
[I’m so envious of an open-minded person like Mrs. Qin.]
[It’s probably because Mrs. Qin grew up being pampered and never did these things, so she thinks that there’s nothing wrong with women not doing these things.]
[It’s still different. How many rich mothers-in-law can’t stand their daughter-in-law? They ask their daughter-in-law to do things that they couldn’t do. In fact, it’s still based on one’s personal perception.]
[In the end, it’s all because Mrs. Qin can think from Jiang Xun’s point of view. As women, they should understand each other and not make things difficult for each other..]
