Back For My Daughter

Chapter 176 - He Changed A Lot!



In the kitchen, the three ladies of the house were staring at the pot of soup that was getting cooked.

It seemed to have the same reaction as when the great Italian explorer Christopher Columbus discovered America.

Ye Qian didn't know whether he should laugh or cry, did he just shock his mother too much?

But this must have not been the problem with the other two, since Ning Wei had never seen him cook but had eaten the food he made, while Yuan Meng had seen how he made the dinner yesterday.

But she was also having a bewildered expression on her face.

But it was different in the scene of the three ladies in the room.

It was because from the time Ye Qian started making the soup it had barely been 10 minutes and all the things were done and he had closed the lid.

While this was completely new for Ning Wei and Grandma Yan, as they had seen this kind of way of cooking for the first time, and it was the same for Yuan Meng as well.

Usually, the normal method of cooking which was practised here was of throwing all the seasonings and vegetables and meat and spices in the boiling water, but this was a different method as it needed to the one who made it to add the things in it at a certain step and order.

The ladies would have never thought that just a change in the simple cooking way would cause so many wonders as the aromatic fragrance of the soup was starting to linger in the kitchen by now.

This kind of method was new to them and that was why Yuan Meng was also carefully looking at Ye Qian while he made the soup since this was different from what he made yesterday.

"Mom, I am done with the soup, I will quickly make some Egg rolls as the girls are hungry."

Saying that he opened the door of the fridge and noticed that there were only enough eggrolls to make about 3 for both of them.

He understood that before when he had gone to treat Xiao Ya, the little girls might have more some with Lan'er to give it to their Grandma and Grandpa.

He took out the remaining 6 rolls and placed them in the oven to thaw them.

Meanwhile, Grandma Yan walked to the pot of soup and tasted a spoonful of it.

"Ahhh, this is really nice and tasty."

She closed her eyes as she relished the taste of the soup as it was in her mouth.

She looked at Ye Qian who was taking out some oil and a wok from the rack and gave a thumb's up to Yuan Meng.

She would never have thought that something like this was even made by Ye Qian even if someone had told her later if not for she had seen it with her own eyes.

She then walked to the table with a bright smile and sat beside the two ladies and continued to see as Ye Qian continued to fry the egg rolls.

After just a few minutes the oil was hot enough and Ye Qian placed the rolls and took them out as they turned crispy.

He placed it in a small plate which he had got before with some sauce at the side and placed the rolls and turned to the ladies.

"Mengmeng, I will get these to the girls till then cut the beef thin."

"Hmm."

Yuan Meng and Ning Wei nodded as Ye Qian smiled at them and walked out while carrying the plate and wearing the kitchen apron.

"Pfft."

Seeing him walk out like this Grandma Yan burst out laughing.

"He has changed a lot in these years."

She started at his back as Ye Qian left the door open and sighed.

"Yes, Mom, and it's for the good."

Yuan Meng also agreed as she also stared at him with a tender smile.

While Ning Wei also had some mixed feelings in her heart while she took the beef which was already cut and started to make it as Ye Qian had told.

She now knew she had a place in Ye Qian's heart and all she needed is to stay by him, she didn't need him to love her back or something like that, all she needed was what Ye Qian was already giving her without even asking, the little amount of love was all she could want.

She had a bright smile as she thought about it and busied herself while cutting the meat.

The three ladies continued to do it while doing some gossip.

Most of the time it was only Grandma Yan talking about the various things and good things which happened in their house near the village and about the type of environment which was faced by many farmers in there.

As Ye Qian held the plate and walked to the living room, Grandpa Xiao stared at him with wide eyes, it seemed like if not for the glasses he was wearing they might have almost popped out and fallen on the ground seeing the scene.

He removed the glasses from his nose bridge and put them on the table and rubbed his eyes.

Ye Qian was wearing an apron and carrying a dish.

At first, when he heard that Ye Qian would help the ladies in the kitchen it would be likely with helping them for cutting the vegetables and doing other labour stuff but now he didn't dare believe his eyes for what he was looking at.

Ye Qian gave a smile to him and then looked at the girls who had their faces dropped.

It seemed like they were not able to control their hunger and were sad about it.

Ye Qian felt bad that he must have first made them something to eat and then do the soup.

But that had already happened and there was nothing he could do now.

So he just went to then.

"Do my little girls want Egg Rolls?"
