Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Li Xiaoran actually liked chicken feet very much.
There were braised, spicy, braised, salad, garlic-flavored, or tiger skin and phoenix claws.
Every one of them tasted delicious.
Li Xiaoran decided to cook in the healthiest way possible, considering that the Third Prince had just recovered.
First, she cut off the chicken claw nails, then split them in two and blanched them in the pot.
After the water boiled and foam appeared, she knocked the foam away and continued to boil the chicken claw nails.
When it was about time, she scooped the chicken claw nails out and soaked them in cold water.
Next, it was time to season it to her liking.
Li Xiaoran made three flavors. One was spicy chicken feet, one was garlic chicken feet, and the other was sour and spicy chicken feet.
After these three chicken feet were ready, they were marinated at the side.
Then, Li Xiaoran went to make other food.
Seeing some ribs and green prawns, Li Xiaoran simply made a griddle of ribs and prawns.
In addition, there was also a green bamboo shoot roasted pig intestine dish, boiled fish slices dish, stir-fried asparagus tips dish, and spicy potato pancakes.
Li Xiaoran also boiled a large pot of sour plum soup.
By the time the large table of dishes was ready, the sun was already setting.
After Li Xiaoran asked someone to place the dishes on the table, she went to call Luo Cheng and Ling Heng over.
After training for two hours in the morning, the brothers were very hungry.
Looking at the table full of delicious dishes, Luo Cheng smiled.
“Where’s Xiaoran?” Luo Cheng looked at Luo Ziyang and asked.
“Madam said that you must have something to discuss with the Third Prince, so she won’t disturb you guys from catching up! Madam is resting in her room now!” Luo Ziyang replied.
After Luo Cheng thought for a moment, he looked at Luo Ziyang and said, “Call
Xiaoran over. She has to know what I want to say!”
Luo Ziyang nodded and went to invite Li Xiaoran.
Li Xiaoran originally only wanted to hide in her room and enjoy the chicken feet, but she was unexpectedly called over by Luo Cheng.
After changing her clothes, Li Xiaoran came to the courtyard.
Luo Cheng waved at Li Xiaoran and said, “Xiaoran, come and sit down quickly!
You wanted to eat chicken feet behind my back, right?! Let’s eat them together! ”
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she was immediately amused.
“I originally wanted to leave a good impression in front of Third Brother, but your words exposed me! Forget it, I might as well stop pretending to be ladylike. Third Brother, don’t despise my table manners later!”
Ling Heng laughed when he heard the interaction between Luo Cheng and his seventh sister-in-law.
“No, no! Seventh Sister-in-law, feel free to eat whatever you want. You don’t have to worry!”
Seeing this, Li Xiaoran didn’t argue anymore. After she washed her hands, she sat down to eat together.
It had to be said that Li Xiaoran’s dishes tasted very good. The dishes on the table were very popular with them.
As Li Xiaoran listened to Luo Cheng and Ling Heng talk, she focused on nibbling on the chicken feet.
It had to be said that Li Xiaoran’s nibbling skills were top-notch. She picked up the chicken claw with her chopsticks before placing it in her mouth.
It didn’t take long for the chicken claw to be bitten off and the bone to be spat out.
When Ling Heng saw that Li Xiaoran was eating happily, he suddenly felt his appetite whetted as well and he felt happy.
“I have to say, watching Seventh Sister-in-law eat is a form of enjoyment! In the past, I rarely had a good appetite. No matter how delicious something was, I wouldn’t be able to eat anymore after eating three mouthfuls! But sitting here and watching Seventh Sister-in-law eat with relish, I also feel like eating more!”
Luo Cheng glanced at Li Xiaoran and smiled.
“The most important thing I’ve learned from Xiaoran is to cherish and enjoy delicious food. What does one need in life? In the end, aren’t eating, drinking, and sleeping the most important things in life? Eating is one of the most important things!”
When Ling Heng heard Luo Cheng’s words, he recalled that he had been working hard all these years in order to obtain his father’s affirmation. He didn’t hesitate to do everything his father instructed him to do and he also hoped that he could do more for the commoners.
But on second thought, what had he obtained all these years?
A wife who cuckolded him? A child who wasn’t his? Or a life that wasn’t peaceful at all?
“Luo Cheng sees things clearly, unlike Third Brother, whose own life isn’t even in order!” Ling Heng said.
Luo Cheng glanced at Ling Heng and smiled.
“Third Brother, what are you saying?! Before I got married, my life was worse than yours!”
Ling Heng smiled when he heard Luo Cheng’s words. That’s right, Luo Cheng had a worse life than him in the past!
“Now, your suffering has come to an end!”
After Luo Cheng ate the fish in his mouth, he reached out and picked up a piece of pig intestine.
“Third Brother, look, when this pig intestine was first taken out, it was filled with dirty things and emitted a stench of parched food. But after a round of washing, processing, and cooking, it will become a delicacy that everyone likes!”
With that, Luo Cheng put the pig intestine in his mouth and chewed on it.
“People can’t choose our background, but when we have a choice, we can work hard to make our lives better! What you see in your current life are all bad things. In that case, do you want to turn these bad things into good things?”
Ling Heng was stunned when he heard Luo Cheng’s words.
“How can I turn something bad into something good?”
As Luo Cheng stared at Ling Heng, he suddenly said, “Third Brother, there are no outsiders today. It’s just you and me. As your brother, I just want to ask you something. Do you want the throne?
Even Li Xiaoran looked at Luo Cheng in surprise and pondered over it.
After Ling Heng thought for a moment, he threw his previous caution to the side. Then, he voiced his thoughts. “I want it!”
Luo Cheng smiled when he heard this.
“Since you want it, things will be easy!”
When Ling Heng heard Luo Cheng’s words, he looked at him in surprise. “Luo Cheng, what do you mean?”
Without hesitation, Luo Cheng took out the letter in his arms. “Third Brother, read this letter first!”
When Ling Heng saw this letter, he took it and opened it. As he read it, Ling Heng’s expression turned ugly..
