Fragrance
Su Binglan realized she had forgotten to hide her skills when she heard Luo Jin’an’s words. She had learned many things in the past, and when she needed to use her skills, she would naturally use them.
It was difficult for Su Binglan to hide her skills. She couldn’t always remember to feign ignorance. The corners of her lips twitched as she said, “A-About that, I trained myself in the past.”
Shen Qiuhua replied, “That’s right. Binglan is indeed very smart. She learned a lot from elementary school.”
According to Shen Qiuhua’s memories, her daughter was sensible and intelligent when she was a child. It didn’t surprise Shen Qiuhua that her daughter knew these things.
‘My daughter is the best.’
Su Fengmao nodded and said, “Binglan would help us cook when she was just a few years old.”
Su Fengmao recalled the memories of when his daughter was a child. He knew that she was brilliant, sensible, and considerate. Maybe she grew up to be a little more delicate, but that was normal for girls.
Su Fengmao and Shen Qiuhua would not overthink it. They only cared for their daughter’s happiness.
Su Binglan felt highly emotional in her heart. ‘My parents are good people. They always support me no matter what I do. I’m truly grateful.’
Su Binglan recalled her predecessor’s memories and discovered that she was kinder as a kid. She wondered what changed about her that made her so cruel toward others. It seemed that some of her predecessor’s memories were fuzzy.
Su Binglan said, “It’s normal to enjoy learning when one is younger, like cutting vegetables and cooking.”
Luo Jin’an only remained silent.
Su Binglan then put the cut sweet potatoes into a bowl, salted them evenly, and stirred them. Then she cracked one egg into a bowl and folded it in.
Eggs were very precious to the villagers. They would save the eggs that the hens laid and sell them at the market to earn money for their families. The villagers couldn’t bear to eat them.
Since Shen Qiuhua raised two hens to lay eggs and kept them, Su Binglan couldn’t bear to use too many. She only used one egg.
After folding in the eggs, Su Binglan added flour and stirred the sweet potatoes again. Then she added some finely chopped green onions.
Su Binglan heated a pot, poured some oil, and spread the sweet potato mixture into the pot. When the sweet potatoes turned golden-brown, she flipped them and fried the other side. She only took the sweet potato pancake out when both sides were golden-brown.
A delectable fragrance spread throughout the house, enticing everyone’s appetites. Even Su Binglan felt hungry. She picked up a piece of the sweet potato pancake with her chopsticks and blew on it. Then she said, “Try some, Mother.”
Shen Qiuhua smelled the fragrance and was already hungry. She was touched when her daughter fed her a piece of sweet potato pancake. She became teary-eyed as she tried her best to smile. Then she said, “It’s delicious!”
It was already good enough for the Su family to fill their stomachs with food, let alone delicious food.
They were reluctant to put anything in the cooking oil. They would stew wild vegetables and add some salt most of the time.
“Go on, and eat, Binglan. I want you and Luo Jin’an to eat first.”
Shen Qiuhua urged, “Binglan, quickly give some to Jin’an.”
As a mother, Shen Qiuhua just wanted to see her daughter and son-in-law get along. She wanted to persuade her daughter to treat Luo Jin’an better since she had become more sensible.
Su Binglan could only listen to her mother when she saw her urging gestures. She gave a piece to Luo Jin’an and said somewhat awkwardly, “Here, try some.”
Luo Jin’an was not used to Su Binglan treating him like this, but at that time, Shen Qiuhua said, “Jin’an, hurry up and eat. It’s rare for Binglan to cook. I hope you like it.”
