Chapter 52 - 52 Treasures

52 Treasures

Su Binglan felt that it was very novel. It was as if she was sitting on a warm tatami mat in modern Japan as the family talked and ate happily.

Of course, Su Binglan found that Luo Jin’an was very quiet. He would only smile and say a few words to Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai.

Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai also liked to stick to their uncle.

Therefore, Su Binglan found that Luo Jin’an didn’t eat much and spent most of his time caring for Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai.

Perhaps it was because the father of the two children was not around, so they relied more on Luo Jin’an.

Su Binglan saw that Luo Jin’an didn’t eat much, so she started to give him some food. She also put some chicken into Luo Jin’an’s bowl for him to eat.

“You eat more too.”

When Su Binglan talked to Luo Jin’an, her voice was always gentle. Su Binglan didn’t know that she looked incredibly gentle under the light from the oil lamp.

Luo Jin’an gave Su Binglan a profound look.

Su Binglan touched her face with her hand and asked, “Is there something on my face?”

Luo Jin’an looked away and said lightly, “I-It’s nothing.”

Su Binglan talked to everyone while putting food into Luo Jin’an’s bowl.

Su Binglan looked at Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai, and she couldn’t help but tease them. “Is the food I made good?”

Su Xuehai had eaten a lot of snacks that night, and now his opinion of his aunt had changed. The happiness of children was straightforward. As long as there was good food, they would be pleased.

“It’s delicious, Aunt Binglan!”

Su Xuexuan nodded thoughtfully, “The chicken and potatoes are delicious. This one is spicy.”

“There’s a little bit of chili in it. It’s indeed a little spicy, but you guys should eat less. Just eat the chicken.”

Su Fengmao, on the other hand, liked to eat spicy and sour shredded potatoes very much. “This dish you made is delicious, Binglan. I like the spicy and sour flavors. I didn’t know there were chilies around here.”

Su Binglan smiled and explained, “Chilies are an excellent ingredient. You can put chilies in many dishes. When I make chili and shredded pork sauce later, you will know what it tastes like.”

However, the ingredients in that era were too straightforward. It was not easy to make chili and shredded pork sauce. Su Binglan needed more than just chilies.

Su Binglan prepared to go to the back of the mountain to take a look and then go to the town afterward.

“Okay! I’m sure whatever you cook will be delicious!”

The entire family ate till their bellies were about to explode. They’ve never felt that way in a long time. The food was delicious too.

…

Su Binglan and Luo Jin’an returned to their house when the rest of the Su family went to bed that night.

The couple slept in separate beds and had a good night’s sleep.

Su Binglan woke up early the following day, and after a simple breakfast, the family went to the back of the mountain.

Su Fengmao wanted to come to the back of the mountain to help. However, considering it was inconvenient for him to walk with a limp, Shen Qiuhua told him to help look after Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai.

Liu Yinyin also followed them to the back of the mountain, and soon, they arrived at the place where Su Binglan had gone the day before.

Shen Qiuhua was shocked to see so many chilies and chestnuts on the ground. “That’s strange. I often came to the back of the mountain but never found this place.”

Shen Qiuhua felt that her daughter was a treasure.

Liu Yinyin nodded and said, “Indeed. The villagers often come to the back of the mountain, but it seems that no one has walked this road before. I didn’t expect there to be so many things here.”

Although they were surprised, their hands were not idle.

This time, they came to the back of the mountain with a big basket on their back and two big baskets in their hands, just to carry more things.
