Li Mingxia had already made up his mind today. He would not give face to anyone. If they wanted to force Li Sanlang to stay, and if Li Sanlang was willing, then let Li Sanlang stay here with them. Anyway, even if Li Sanlang agreed to something, he would not be able to pay. Li Mingxia was not worried about this.

"Master, I'm not trying to scare you. If he dares to say something nonsense to me again, you'll make him stay away from home for the rest of his life. Be careful, someone will put a sack on him!"

After Li Mingxia finished speaking, the group turned around and left the Li family's old house without any pause.

"Mingxia, why are you here?" Li Sanlang felt much more relaxed after coming out of the house, but he still asked Li Mingxia with some curiosity.

He would definitely not tell Li Mingxia about this. Although Zhengde would tell Li Mingxia everything, from the time he went to school to the time he knew about this to the time they went to the Li family's old house together, Zhengde had no chance to contact Li Mingxia alone, let alone tell her about this.

But why did Li Mingxia know that they were in the Li family's old house, and not only she went there, but also several helpers, as if she knew everything in advance. This made Li Sanlang a little confused, and he couldn't help but ask.

Li Mingxia said casually, "I just couldn't find you two when it was time for dinner. I searched everywhere in the house and couldn't find anyone. I know Zhengde. He doesn't like to go anywhere when it's almost time for dinner. Only his father and mother can call him."

Li Mingxia laughed as she spoke. Li Zhengde felt relieved when he saw that his elder sister was not unhappy.

He was a little worried that Li Mingxia would be angry because he went to the old house without telling her. Although Li Sanlang did force her, if Li Zhengde insisted, Li Sanlang's personality would not allow him to say anything too harsh. So in the final analysis, this matter was also Li Zhengde himself who acquiesced to hiding the truth from Li Mingxia from the beginning.

"Then you thought of going to the old house?" Li Sanlang asked.

Li Mingxia smiled and did not comment. He did not say yes or no. It was up to Li Sanlang to go if he wanted to.

Li Sanlang had already concluded that Li Mingxia knew where they wanted to go so easily, and he admired his daughter even more.

"My daughter, about what happened today, Dad..."

Li Mingxia waved his hand, signaling Li Sanlang not to continue.

"Dad, our family has cooked casserole tofu soup. We can have a hot meal when we go back now. It's so cold today, and a bowl of hot soup is better than anything else. Besides, it's made by my mom herself." Li Mingxia interrupted what Li Sanlang was about to say. Obviously, he didn't want to bring it up, or he didn't want to discuss it with Li Sanlang.

However, Li Mingxia was not angry. She heard how Li Sanlang dealt with those people in the Li family's old house, and knew that Li Sanlang's heart was now completely devoted to their family. So what was there to be angry about?

As for Li Sanlang secretly going to the Li family's old house, think about the reason used by Grandpa Li. As a son, and such a filial son at that, how could he refuse when he heard his father who was over 70 years old making a reasonable request?

It's human nature, so Li Mingxia naturally wouldn't blame him.

"Clay pot tofu soup? I've never heard your mother say that she can cook this dish before, and I've never eaten it." Li Sanlang said subconsciously.

Li Mingxia smiled and said, "I didn't know how to make it before, but now I can. I tried it when I came out just now, and it tastes great, not worse than what I make. I'm sure you will like it."

Li Mingxia's words successfully aroused the curiosity of the two men. No one mentioned what happened in the Li family's old house on the way. Everyone wanted to go home quickly to taste the casserole tofu soup that Li Mingxia praised so much.

Li Zhengpin didn't say anything either, but he seemed to be in a good mood. He had just stood outside the door with Li Mingxia for a long time and heard everything he should have heard. At this moment, he had nothing in his mind and was just thinking about going home to drink a sip of the soup made by his mother.

Several people entered the house feeling cold, and Zhang, Li Mingqiu and Li Mingdong brought them a cup of hot tea.

"Drink it quickly to warm yourself up, then we'll have dinner." Zhang didn't ask, as if she didn't know about this little episode at all. She was just waiting at home for her husband and children to come back for dinner. There was nothing different.

Clay pot tofu soup, although it is called that, it does not only contain tofu, there are also vermicelli, pork belly, kelp, and some shredded cabbage. It is not sauerkraut, but just ordinary shredded cabbage. This dish also requires soup. If sauerkraut is used, the taste will be greatly reduced, so it cannot be used.

"Mingxia taught me how to make this dish. Would you like to try it and see if it's delicious?" While speaking, Zhang picked up the bowl in front of Li Sanlang, took a look at it, and put it down again.

"This bowl is too small. I'll get you a bigger one." Zhang said to Li Sanlang.

All the side dishes in this dish are Li Sanlang's favorites, so he can definitely eat a lot. Moreover, when the casserole tofu soup was cooked, Li Mingxia tasted it, and Zhang must have tasted it as well. The taste could definitely be said to be good, so Zhang was very confident.

A large bowl with a lot of tofu and pork belly, plus a few tablespoons of soup. Li Mingxia also roasted some crispy chili peppers. Now when all these things are mixed together, it is so delicious!

Li Sanlang took a bite and felt his hands and feet, which had been a little cold just now, instantly warmed up. His heart and stomach also felt warm.

"It's delicious, mother of my child. Your cooking skills are getting better and better. I would believe you if you said Mingxia made this soup." Li Sanlang really liked the soup. He drank the whole bowl of soup with three steamed buns and ate a lot of other dishes.

"I just love the century egg and tofu made by my sister. I can never get enough of it." Li Zhengde put down his chopsticks and burped contentedly.

Every time when the family makes soup, Li Mingxia would make a few cold dishes to relieve the greasiness. Today he made century egg and tofu, braised beef in soy sauce and smashed cucumber. These three dishes are very popular with everyone, especially Li Zhengde. His favorite is the century egg and tofu. He ate half of such a big plate himself, and he only took a few bites of the braised beef and other dishes before he stopped eating.

"This soup tastes really good. Would it be as delicious without the pork belly? Would it have no meaty taste?" While cleaning up the dishes, Zhang was recalling the casserole tofu soup she had just eaten.
