Chapter 34: Bring Your Own Table and Stool When Coming Over for Dinner

  Chapter Thirty-Four: Go to My House for Dinner and Bring Your Own Table and Stool

  A moment later, Xiao Sheng walked over to Xiao Changfu's side and whispered something in his ear.

  Xiao Changfu said eagerly, "You go and tell everyone to start eating."

  "Good." Xiao Sheng was about to turn around when he was stopped by Su Xiaofan.

  "Sheng Shu." Su Xiao Fan hastily got up and walked over, then leaned in close to Xiao Sheng's ear and whispered a few words.

  "I've already asked the kitchen staff to set aside a small portion of each dish, so you can just pick them up from the kitchen when you leave, Little Madam." Xiao Sheng seemed to have anticipated that she might want to bring some back for her family, after all, these delicious dishes were rarely available in their household.

  "Thank you, Uncle Sheng." Su Xiaofan happily sat back down again.

  Xiao Yi Mo glanced at the corners of her smiling mouth, and a complex expression flashed in his eyes. Why could she be so satisfied with just a small thing?

  "Hmm, today's dishes are more delicious than last year's."

  "Yes, the color matching of the dishes is also better than before."

  "It's too delicious, I've never had anything so delicious before."

  "I don't know if they've changed chefs."

  "I heard that today's dishes were all made by Su Xiaofan, who was a child bride for the village chief's family."

  "It can't be, Little Fan doesn't look like someone who cooks on a daily basis."

  “……”

  “……”

  After the banquet began, all sorts of comments and rumors occasionally entered people's ears.

  Su Xiaofan was not moved at all, calmly eating her meal, secretly thinking that the chef of this village head's family seemed to be quite skilled, and with just a hint, they could make such delicious food.

  At the end of the party, the servants and maids in the mansion finally brought out the birthday cake that Su Xiao Fan had spent the whole morning making, along with a basket of small plates. They cut it into small pieces and distributed them to everyone present.

  "Xiao Fan, what is this? The flavor is really special." Xiao Changfu asked out loud after taking a sip, although he had already felt curious when he first saw it.

  "This is called a birthday cake, specifically used for celebrating on birthdays. If it's at night, you can also insert some candles to create an atmosphere. However, today was sudden and there were no candles prepared, and even if we lit them in the middle of the day, it wouldn't have much atmosphere, so I just cut it up and distributed it to everyone. Originally, it was supposed to be you, the birthday star, who would cut it." Su Xiaofan smiled slightly, seemingly not very satisfied with this time-consuming cake, which didn't taste as good as the ones she made before, perhaps due to differences in the tools used.

  "So, next month when Mo'er has a birthday, let's arrange for a banquet at night." Xiao Changfu actually wanted to see what it would be like if the giant cake had burning candles on it.

  Xiao Yimò raised her eyes, staring quietly at Xiao Changfu for a moment before stretching out her small tongue to lick the butter on her lips, and replied casually: "I don't want a birthday banquet."

  Xiao Changfu raised an eyebrow, it seems he is quite concerned about his current body.

  However, after all, such a thing happens to anyone will be a considerable blow, and it is normal to mind.

  "Is the little treasure having a birthday? Has he turned six?" Su Xiao Fan turned her head to look over, then took down the handkerchief from her waist to wipe away the remaining butter on his mouth.

  "Cough, cough, uh." Xiao Changfu let out a few extremely unnatural light coughs, his warning gaze sweeping around the people at the table.

  After coming into contact with Xiao Changfu's dusk, everyone present lowered their heads and quietly ate the cake in front of them.

  "If we don't set up a banquet, I can just cook a table of dishes at home to celebrate. It's enough." Su Xiaofan wiped her hands and put the handkerchief back, only to realize that she had found the handkerchief on her waist in the kitchen earlier, and didn't know when her mother and grandmother had put it there.

  Xiao Changfu nodded slightly: "Very well, I will bring some family members to your house for dinner that day."

  "Okay, but you know my family is very poor, Village Chief. If you want to come to my house for dinner, you'll have to bring your own table, stool, bowl and chopsticks."

  Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuqiong's gaze at Su Xiaofan was filled with even more disdain. Such a poor and unsophisticated country girl, how could she be worthy of her own brother Mo? Although it was said that Brother Mo didn't truly want to marry her, it still wasn't fair in her heart. A person like her didn't even have the qualifications to stand by Brother Mo's side.

  "Alright, we'll bring those things ourselves when we go." Xiao Changfu smiled nonchalantly, her family was very poor and probably nobody in the village didn't know that.

  However, it seems that there is a premonition that this girl is now quite different from the past, and perhaps the family will slowly get better under her hands.

  After dinner, Su Xiaofan held the meal prepared by Xiao Sheng in her left hand and held Xiao Yimiao's hand with her right hand, ready to head home.

  "Xiao Fan, wait for me." Yu Xiao Xi rushed over excitedly and stood beside them, her face flushed with excitement as she said: "Xiao Fan, today's birthday banquet was truly delicious, I really admire you!"

  "So, want to learn cooking from me?" Su Xiaofan smiled and then looked at the two people behind Yu Xiaoxi, sweetly calling out: "Uncle, Aunt."

  Su Hu smiled at her with a slight curve of his lips.

  Yu Xiaohuo couldn't hide her surprise and said to Su Xiaofan: "Xiaofan, you're getting more and more formidable."

  "No, I just know a little about cooking." Su Xiaofan shook her head, hoping they wouldn't ask where she learned to cook or when she started learning, as every time someone asked, she would get a headache and didn't know how to respond.

  "If you have a slight understanding, no one dares to say they understand; however, I'm not good at cooking and the dishes I make are really hard to swallow." Yu Xiaoxi stuck out her tongue, in her impression, her sister's cooking was actually quite delicious, so she had also learned from her for a while, but the things she made always made people difficult to swallow.

  "Is that so? Then forget it." Su Xiaofan also knew that everyone had their own strengths and weaknesses, and since she didn't have talent in this area, it was better not to force herself to learn.

  Yu Xiaoxi rolled her eyes and leaned in close to Su Xiaofan, saying: "Why don't you go teach Su Bing instead?"

  Su Xiaofan glanced at her a few times and said: "You haven't even married him yet, but you're already making plans for him?"

  Yu Xiaoxi's face turned red instantly, and she stuttered: "It's not that either... he loves this line of work so much, you know that too. If you're willing to teach him, he'll definitely learn faster."

  "Although it's possible, but isn't he learning cooking at Mingyue Building?" Su Xiaofan thought that if she were to instruct someone else's apprentice without permission, that would be disrespecting the other person.
