Back For My Daughter

Chapter 178 - Are You Hiding Something?



Ye Qian sat on the chair while pondering what to do since he had to use the Spirit Stove technique but since Grandma Yan would not go out and it would also not look good to make her sit out.

Ye Qian pondered for a while before thinking of making the Beef Stir Fry and Pepper Chicken Fry first and then prepare the Fried Rice and Sichuan Noodles with the Spirit Stove Technique.

Meanwhile, the ladies were also finished with cutting and dicing all the needed vegetables since the Beef Stir Fry would also need them.

Ye Qian put some of the Cornflour in the marinated Beef and mixed it while he put his hand around the bowl in which it was placed to marinate.

Ye Qian closed his eyes and mumbled something and soon the bowl buzzed and the meat in it started to vibrate as well.

And in just a few seconds there was another shine on the meat pieces now.

Ye Qian then put the many pieces in the oil which he had kept heating for a long time and started to fry the marinated beef.

Within just half a minute of time, the beef was perfectly partially cooked as Ye Qian removed them out of the oil and placed it in a rack.

With the marinated chicken he did the same and the needed preparation for the Chicken Pepper Fry and Beef Stir Fry were set aside.

Meanwhile, the ladies were just sitting as Ye Qian placed the fried beef and chicken pieces to cool and walked to them.

Yu Lan was all smiles as she saw Ye Qian was walking towards her.

Ye Qian patted her head and sat by her side and glanced at Grandma Yan who was eating some roasted sunflower seeds.

"Mom, can you make their stir fry now?"

Ye Qian asked while picking a few seeds from the small bowl.

He felt delighted from eating them and smiled.

He had not eaten these for a long time and had even forgotten their taste.

But these simplest things were also the most nutritious thing as well.

The seeds were sun roasted and then added some salt over them.

They still had their cover intact and one would need to pick one seed at a time and peel them and only then can one eat it.

Though you could eat the seed whole, it will taste like eating dried grass since the seed coat of the sunflower seeds were a bit thick so u would chew more seed coat than the real seed.

Ye Qian took a few from the packet and then called for Grandma Yan.

"Little Qi, it will taste really awful if I make it now my child, it has to be made fresh or the vegetables might get overcooked."

Grandma Yan shook her head and denied.

Ye Qian nodded.

"You know that every time I made it, it would be steaming hot, straight from the burner to your plate, if I were to do it now, then it will become a gravy till we get to eat."

Grandma Yan continued as she gave a few peeled seeds to Yuan Meng and Ning Wei.

While Yu Lan also took a few from her hand.

"Thank you, aunt." 

Yu Lan smiled and put a few in her mouth.

"Mom, how about I call you after the food is prepared then you can make it."

Ye Qian suggested seeing that his mother would not make it now.

"Little Qi, why are you so amendment on pushing your mother out of the kitchen, do you want to say something to Little Meng or Little Wei."

Grandma Yan glanced at the two ladies with raised brows.

Ye Qian shook his head.

"No, Mom, there would be a lot of smoke and other things in here so it will not be good for your health that is why I am saying, and if you want you can take them with you as well."

Ye Qian glanced at the three other ladies and smiled.

What was important for him now was to make things really fast and at most, it would take him 20 or so minutes if he were to make it all.

"Cheh, this old woman used wood to make food, do you really think the little smoke would make me even cough a bit?

Grandma Yan narrowed her eyes and snapped.

She was now feeling something was off here or why would Ye Qian always try to get her out of the kitchen.

It was not like she wouldn't go, but the more he asked her the more she felt that something was wrong.

"Little Qi, are you hiding something from me?"

She asked.

"Mom, Qian'er has nothing to hide, he just doesn't have anything to hide."

Seeing that the situation was getting worse and at any time Grandma Yan would take a wooden spoon and hit Ye Qian, Yuan Meng intervened.

She understood why Ye Qian was trying to get Grandma Yan out since he had done the same with them, for her and the other two ladies Ye Qian would not try to hide it from them since they already knew about his powers but if Grandma Yan were to see how Ye Qian made the food then she didn't know how she would react.

She was not worried about them knowing about his powers, but this would make things a lot difficult for them in the future if this were to be known by others.

"Sigh."

"Fine, I will play with the girls for some time, call me when you are done with the things here so that I would make it quick and everyone would eat it early." 

Grandma Yan sighed and stood up while walking to the door and said without looking at anyone.

While going out she closed the door and sighed again.

Her sigh was heard by Ye Qian and others.

"Mom, I really don't want to hide it from you, but I am worried that this will cause us more trouble."

Ye Qian sighed and stood up.
