Chapter 640: Didn’t See Me?
It was strange.
The entire Ning Family, from Elder Ning to Ning Yiyuan, doted on the two children a lot. However, the person they stuck to the most was Mo Chu, who was the strictest!
As a matter of fact, the moment they went downstairs, the two of them immediately rushed toward Mo Chu. Not only that, their entire bodies were buried deep in Mo Chu’s embrace, their fair and tender little faces were filled with attachment and love.
One had to know that these two little fellows were usually very mischievous.
Don’t look at how small they were, they were very smart. With a turn of their eyes, they would come up with ideas that could make you not know whether to laugh or cry. It was only in front of Mo Chu that they would reveal such a childish side.
No!
I can’t think about it anymore!
Ning Yiyuan shook his head. The more he thought about it, the sadder he felt!
“Alright, stand properly.” Mo Chu patted the two children’s back and took out a cotton towel from the terminal. “You’ve played so much that you’re all sweaty. Let me help you wipe it off.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the two little ones stood up obediently and lined up in a row. They raised their little heads and waited for Mo Chu’s ‘pampering’ with faces full of anticipation.
This type of cotton towel was personally selected by Mo Chu. The texture was very soft and it was just right for the two children’s delicate skin.
Mo Chu held the towel lightly in her hand and did not dare to use too much strength to check the children’s skin. They probably took after her, fair and delicate. In addition, children’s faces were originally filled with collagen. At first glance, they looked like eggs that had their shells removed, so tender that it was unbelievable!
Mo Chu was even worried that he would use too much force and accidentally scratch their faces.
“That’s enough,”
A few minutes later, after Mo Chu cleaned them up, the two children returned to their clean and fresh appearance. At this moment, she was eagerly following behind Mo Chu and entering the kitchen.
Mo Chu was preparing lunch for them.
The two children were still young, and this was the time for their bones to develop. They were lively and active, so they needed to be supplemented with calcium and protein.
The bone soup and silver carp fish balls were very suitable for them.
After deciding on today’s lunch menu, Mo Chu immediately took action.
First, she took out the big stick bones and washed them.
They soaked the bones in water for another half an hour. The water had to be changed many times in the process to remove the blood and dirt from the bones.
After it was washed clean, she put the big bone into the pot with cold water.
After more than ten minutes, the water boiled and continued to boil over the high fire. She skimmed off the foam at any time and added the cut seaweed and carrot pieces after that.
When the pot was boiling again, she turned it to medium heat and kept it boiling until the soup turned milky white. Then, he turned it to low heat and continued to stew it for an hour.
At this moment, the rich taste of the bone soup was almost out, strong and alluring.
Not to mention the two hungry children, even the adults who were discussing business in the living room could not help but swallow their saliva.
Taking advantage of the time when the bone soup was still boiling, Mo Chu started to attack the next dish.
Compared to the bone soup, the fish ball required more effort.
Mo Chu picked a three to four kilogram spotted silver carp. One had to know that the meat of this weight was the most tender. If it was lighter, there would be more bones, and if it was heavier, the meat would be too old.
After cleaning the fish, Mo Chu cut off its head. Then, starting from the tail, she sliced the fish apart to avoid the bones in the middle.
This process did not seem difficult, but it tested one’s knife skills.
Mo Chu’s knife skills were naturally passable. Her fair and tender hand held a sparkling vegetable knife and gently slid it into the fish’s stomach. With a slight movement of her wrist, in the blink of an eye, she had easily peeled off the two pieces of fish meat, leaving only a complete piece of fish bone in the middle.
Following that, Mo Chu flipped the sliced fish meat over.
With the skin facing down and the flesh facing up, she began to scratch the flesh with the knife. The sharp blade of the knife scraped along the lines of the meat. Soon, the white and tender fish meat was scraped off one by one, filling the entire chopping board.
In order to make the fish more chewy, it needed to be chopped again and added with some streaky pork. This would make the taste of the fish ball richer.
After that, Mo Chu added an egg white, poured some cooking wine, and added an appropriate amount of salt. After it had made it taste good, he added in the water that had been soaked with the Aqua grass to remove the fishy smell.
The preparation work was almost done. The only step left was to stir.
This step was the most important step. Whether the fish ball could be elastic or not depended on this step.
Mo Chu was just about to start eating when Ning Yiyuan walked in and snatched his chopsticks away. “Let me do this kind of physical work!”
Ning Yiyuan’s strength was much stronger than Mo Chu’s. His wrist moved slightly and the chopsticks stirred in one direction. In a short while, the fish was stirred.
Mo Chu did not stay idle and boiled a pot of water at the side.
After Ning Yiyuan was done, he washed his hands and started to make the meatballs.
This work required skill.
Mo Chu clenched the fish in her hand and squeezed it up with her fingers. A round and fat meatball successfully emerged from the tip of her fingers. On the other hand, Ning Yiyuan was either too big or his shape was scattered. In short, there were not many that could be seen.
After she was done kneading the pot of fish balls, she placed them all into the pot and boiled them. After a while, the White and tender fish balls floated up.
On the other side, the bone soup was almost done. When the lid was removed, the aroma was overwhelming.
The two children were already impatient. At this moment, they were staring at the plate in Mo Chu’s hands without even blinking. They were even swallowing their saliva and the embarrassed look on their faces could not be hidden.
The adults around them could not help but laugh at her cute little appearance!
Zuo Lin even took out his terminal and recorded them like this… Tell me, these two children always had a very rich diet, but for some reason, every time they saw the food on the table, they looked as if they had never eaten meat in eight lifetimes and wanted to immediately lie on the table!
However, everyone’s doubts were instantly cleared when they saw Mo Chu’s eyes light up and revel in the bouncy taste of the fish ball.
Fine!
It turned out that this was hereditary!
That’s right!
Look, this mother and her children, the trio’s movements were simply synchronized. Their eyes were slightly narrowed and their small mouths were slightly open. That happy and intoxicated look was simply carved from the same mold! It was exactly the same!
