Chapter 134 Braised Chicken
Chapter 134 Braised Chicken
Sun Liu happily took the dishes home; these were all his carefully prepared delicacies.
He didn't plan to take it to the restaurant, otherwise everyone would know. He saw that Xia Shiyu didn't have much left, so he didn't want to cause trouble for others.
Sun Liu happily took the chicken and vegetables home, only to find a whole bunch of people sitting there when he got back.
"Mom and Dad? Grandpa and Grandma? What brings you all here?"
Sitting on the sofa in the living room were Sun Liu's parents and grandparents.
Everyone sat together, smiling and looking expectantly at the chickens and ducks he was carrying.
Sun's mother stood up immediately. "Oh, son, you must be tired from grocery shopping. I came to see you. Come on, hand me the things and I'll put them away for you."
Dad also got up, "Yes, yes, I'll go help your mom."
Grandma greeted us with a smile, "Oh my, Xiao Liu is getting healthier and healthier, what a great achievement! Come sit down, you and your wife won't be doing any more cooking, let us do it."
Hearing these words, Sun Liu glanced speechlessly at his protruding belly. His grandmother's bias was truly something else; despite how fat he was, she still thought he was healthy.
He sat on the sofa and asked his wife, "Hey, what's going on?"
"Oh, don't mention anything else. Didn't you say before that you were going to buy chickens and ducks? Then when Mom called me today, I just mentioned it, and then Mom and the others came over."
"Oh, oh," Sun Liu immediately understood; his family was craving chicken.
He nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, don't worry, I understand the reasoning. It's true, even if you didn't tell me, I would have told them when I got back."
This chicken is definitely not something he and his wife can eat alone; it tastes better when everyone shares it.
However, after looking around, he found that he did not see the children.
Where are Qiqi and Lele?
My wife replied, "Qiqi is doing her homework, and Lele fell asleep after playing for a while."
Sun Liu suddenly realized, "Oh, I understand now. We'll just call them when the food is ready."
"Uh-huh"
Sun Liu turned on the TV. Sun Liu noticed that sunflower seeds and peanuts were already laid out on the table. He glanced at them and then took out the oranges he had bought and placed them in the fruit plate.
"Here, Grandpa and Grandma, you should try some oranges. I just bought them from Boss Xia."
"Oh, good, good. I haven't had a chance to try the oranges there yet. Now that we have the opportunity, my wife and I must try them."
"Mmm," Sun Liu said, helping his grandparents eat fruit. After a while, he and his wife went to the kitchen to help cook some food.
As soon as Sun's parents saw the two young people come in, they hurriedly tried to shoo them out, saying, "What are you doing here? Only your father and I are busy. You two should go and rest."
"That won't do, Mom and Dad. You're working too hard. We're just two young people, and we feel bad watching you do all that work." Sun Liu said, feeling a little embarrassed.
"No need, no need. I won't make any other dishes. I'll just stew the chicken you bought, and stir-fry some greens."
As Sun Ma deftly chopped the radish, she said.
There's a large family here, after all. One chicken probably won't be enough. It would be better to add more radishes and side dishes so that the whole family can eat more of the side dishes.
"Okay," Sun Liu nodded, then left after realizing he couldn't really help.
Sun Liu and his wife were sitting outside watching TV. After about half an hour, they smelled the aroma of chicken. It smelled so tempting that they couldn't even concentrate on the TV. Their attention was completely drawn to the kitchen, and their mouths were watering.
"It smells so good, it really smells nice."
"Of course, a chicken that costs several hundred yuan is incredibly delicious."
Everyone felt they couldn't say too much, or they'd start drooling.
Finally, after a while, Sun Ma brought out the food on time. "Everyone, go wash your hands and get ready to eat. Go and call the two children out."
"Okay, I'll go call them right now." Sun Liu excitedly ran to the children's room and called the two children.
"Son, stop doing your homework and let's go out to eat."
After saying that, he turned around, picked up his youngest daughter, and gently shook her awake, saying, "Wake up, baby, let's go eat meat."
Qiqi was working on the math problems assigned by her teacher with a heavy heart when her father came to tell her the good news. She immediately stood up excitedly.
"Great, Dad, I want chicken!"
"Okay, eat up, eat heartily, let's go eat."
After saying that, he immediately got to work, rushing to the bathroom to wash his hands and then running to the dining table to wait for his meal.
Sun Liu happily called to his children to eat, "Come on, everyone, hurry up and eat. I've already scooped the food for you."
Sun Liu prepared meals for everyone in his family.
This time, Grandma Sun made braised chicken, which allows her to add a lot of side dishes at the same time. She can also add other staple foods such as wide rice noodles, and serve it with a big bowl of tomato and egg soup on the side. It seems like a very good combination.
Sun's father smiled broadly, the chicken was just too tempting. "Come on, eat up! This chicken smells so good when I was cooking it, I almost couldn't resist and started eating it right there in the kitchen."
"Alright, alright, let's eat."
Qiqi called out happily, eager to eat, feeling especially good.
"Okay, eat up, eat up. Here's a piece of chicken for you, and this one for your little sister." Sun's mother first put a piece of chicken on each of the two children's plates.
"Thank you, Grandma," Qiqi said and then started eating.
Lele was a bit slow, but overall she seemed quite anxious.
The rest of the family started eating too. The chicken was soaked in the braised chicken sauce, which was salty, fragrant, spicy and refreshing. It was not dry or fishy, and the meat was tender. It felt so good and comforting.
"Wow, this tastes so good!"
"Delicious, delicious, I want more!"
