When she returned home, as expected, Fang Ya immediately saw He Feng’s aunt sitting upright on the sofa.
When Mingxia saw that Fang Ya had returned, it was as if she had seen her savior. “Sis, you’re finally back!”
“She’s been sitting like this for an entire day! I thought she was dead!” Mingxia could not help but complain.
Fang Ya glared at Mingxia and smacked her arm. “What nonsense are you spouting!”
Mingxia stuck out her tongue and knew that she had gone overboard with her joke.
“But it’s really scary! Not moving at all and ignoring me no matter what I say!” Mingxia emphasized again.
Fang Ya acknowledged and instructed Mingxia to go back to work.
Fang Ya approached He Feng’s aunt and called out softly, “Aunt, I’m back.”
The woman opened her eyes slightly and looked at Fang Ya. “You’re back?”
Fang Ya nodded and said, “I heard from Mingxia that you didn’t eat much today. Do you want me to prepare some snacks for you?
“The children will be back in a while. Our meal will start later,” Fang Ya said apologetically.
He Feng’s aunt looked at Fang Ya from the corner of her eyes and said, “Your cooking? That’s good too. Let me have a taste!”
Fang Ya grew embarrassed. “Well, aunt, I think it’s better to let Mingxia do it. I’m not good at cooking.”
“You don’t know how to cook?” Her eyebrows instantly shot up. “If you don’t know how to cook, how are you going to take care of He Feng and his son?”
Fang Ya smiled a little awkwardly. “I can ask someone else to help!”
Mingxia poked her head out of the kitchen. “I know how to cook!”
He Feng’s aunt immediately retorted, “How is that the same!”
“A woman, a wife, and a mother. How can you not know how to cook?!” she questioned angrily.
Fang Ya took a deep breath and tried her best to remain calm.
After all, she was the one who had asked his aunt to stay. She wanted to give the two of them a chance to get to know each other.
If they parted on bad terms because of such a small matter, there would be a lot of trouble in the future!
Fang Ya smiled and said to her aunt, “Why don’t I make some food for you to try? Can you give me some pointers?”
When Mingxia heard Fang Ya’s words, she almost laughed out loud. She turned around and went into the kitchen to cover her mouth and giggle.
He Feng’s aunt naturally did not know what Mingxia was laughing about. However, seeing that Fang Ya’s attitude was not bad, she reluctantly nodded her head and agreed.
Fang Ya walked into the kitchen and gave Mingxia a look.
Mingxia was laughing so hard that she was trembling. She covered her mouth as she prepared the ingredients for Fang Ya.
After about an hour, Fang Ya finally prepared some snacks and dishes and brought them to the dining table.
He Feng’s aunt walked to the dining table and looked at the dishes that were considered exquisite. She observed them carefully.
She did not say anything. She sat down, picked up the chopsticks at the side, and poked at a small beige snack. She asked, “What is this?”
“Um, steamed rice cake.” Fang Ya pursed her lips and smiled modestly.
Her aunt nodded, took a bite, and then her face became a little ugly.
The next second, she spat out the rice cake in her mouth. “Say it again, what is this?”
Fang Ya grinned guiltily. “Probably, steamed rice cake…”
She could not help but sigh, and then she moved the chopsticks to the stir-fried green beans at the side.
She picked up a green bean and put it in her mouth. She took a bite and spat out the green bean again in the next moment, glaring at Fang Ya.
Fang Ya blinked her eyes innocently and looked at her aunt.
She sighed and picked up the chopsticks again, but she hesitated among the plates, not knowing which one to hit.
Finally, she slammed the chopsticks heavily on the table. “You! Learn how to cook from me tomorrow!”
Fang Ya’s face instantly fell, and the expression on her face was more pitiful than ever. “Can you not take it?”
She stared at Fang ya fiercely, not giving her any chance to resist.. “No!”
