The rural doctor is busy with farming, and her abstinent husband can't bear it

With just one sentence, the awkwardness at the scene was easily resolved.

"No, no, of course that's not what I meant."

Xie Qifen waved her hands quickly, fearing that her questions would cause unnecessary misunderstandings to Su Yu.

She was more curious and delighted about this novel way of cooking. After all, it was rare to see such exquisite dishes and rich combinations on a simple everyday dining table.

She had no dissatisfaction at all, but was full of admiration for Su Yu's cooking skills and creativity.

Su Yuming understood Xie Qifen's intention. Her words were just to amuse this simple and kind woman.

The fish scales, under the baptism of boiling water, instantly curled and tightened, as if foreshadowing that a wonderful transformation of the taste buds was about to take place.

Su Yu carefully took the strange object out of the boiling hot water and gently placed it in clear cool water. His movements were delicate and skillful, as if he was treating a rare work of art.

She carefully cleaned the tiny bubbles rising from the surface, making sure every inch was crystal clear and flawless.

Then, she gently placed the washed ingredients in a bamboo colander and let the clear water filter through them slowly, leaving behind purity and expectation.

Xie Qifen stood by, staring intently, not daring to blink. Her heart was filled with curiosity and anticipation. She wanted to witness with her own eyes how this young woman used those ingredients that seemed strange in ordinary days to magically create a table of mouth-watering delicacies.

She thought that this was not just about learning, but also a double feast for the eyes and taste buds.

Su Yu cleaned the pot neatly, poured in an appropriate amount of cooking oil, and waited patiently for the oil temperature to rise gradually. The wisps of smoke slowly rose, indicating that the prelude to cooking was about to begin.

She skillfully chopped the fresh lotus leaves into small pieces and gently mixed them into a large porcelain bowl. She then beat in six round eggs and quickly beat them with chopsticks until the egg liquid and lotus leaf crumbs were completely blended. The color was even like jade and it exuded a faint natural fragrance.

The oil in the pot was on the verge of boiling. Su Yu seized the opportunity and slowly poured in the lotus leaf egg liquid. The oil splashed everywhere, accompanied by a pleasant "sizzling" sound. She held the spatula and her wrists flew flexibly. In just a moment, the mixture was completely dry, leaving only an attractive golden color.

After some simple seasoning, a dish of lotus leaf scrambled eggs with good color, aroma and taste is ready. The fragrance is so fragrant that it makes people salivate.

Xie Qifen secretly calculated in her mind that such a generous use of oil and eggs would be enough to support meals for more than ten days in her own home, but Su Yu spent it freely in just one meal.

She couldn't help but feel a little worried, feeling that the young girl seemed too casual about how to run a household.

Although her medical skills have brought her wealth, if she does not control her spending, her family’s livelihood may be in trouble in the future.

Xie Qifen secretly made up her mind to find a suitable time to have a good talk with Su Yu about the importance of household financial management.

Before she could finish her thought, Su Yu poured more oil into the still steaming pot. This sudden action surprised Xie Qifen so much that she was speechless for a long time. She opened her mouth slightly, wanting to dissuade him, but in the end she just looked at Su Yu with complicated eyes without saying a word.

Su Yu was completely unaware of Xie Qifen's inner turmoil and was still immersed in his own cooking world.

She cleverly used the gaps in the hot oil to quickly marinate the collected fish scales, sprinkled fine flour, and stirred gently to ensure that each fish scale was evenly coated with a thin layer of flour.

When the oil temperature rose to 80%, she grasped the timing precisely and gently sprinkled the fish scales into the pot. The crisp popping sound immediately echoed in the kitchen.

When the fish scales took on an attractive golden color, Su Yu quickly fished them out, waited for the oil temperature to rise again, and fried them a second time, making the fish scales extremely crispy. Under the golden shell hid an irresistible temptation.

The excess oil was carefully drained off, and Su Yu then sprinkled in dried chilies and Sichuan peppercorns. With a crackling sound, the kitchen was filled with a spicy aroma.

She quickly put the fragrant fish scales back into the pan, stir-fried them evenly with dried chilies and peppercorns, and finally sprinkled them with green chopped green onions as the finishing touch.

A plate of fish scales that was crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, spicy and delicious was created. Its unique creativity and amazing taste left Xie Qifen dumbfounded, and she almost forgot how to close her surprised jaw.

Seeing this, Su Yu's eyes flashed with a mischievous smile. She picked up a piece of golden and crispy fish scales and gently put it into Xie Qifen's slightly opened mouth, smiling and saying, "Sister, try it and see if it suits your taste."

Xie Qifen took a light bite with a little hesitation, and the salty, crispy taste immediately exploded on the tip of her tongue. Her eyes lit up instantly, and she praised sincerely: "Your cooking skills are simply amazing!"

Su Yu smiled and placed the unique fish scale dish in the middle of the table. She said to Meng Yuanyou and Jiang Ziling who were already impatiently raising their glasses, "Try it first. This is a good dish to go with wine."

Meng Yuanyou's eyes were fixed on this unique delicacy, and his Adam's apple couldn't help but roll up and down, but when he saw that Jiang Ziling hadn't picked up his chopsticks yet, he resisted the urge and secretly admired Jiang Ziling for being so lucky to have such a capable and virtuous partner at home.

Little did they know that Su Yu's seemingly casual action not only conquered the taste buds of the people present, but also added a bit of dignity and glory to Jiang Ziling in front of outsiders.

Jiang Ziling was slow to pick up his chopsticks, not because he was indifferent to the food, but because his heart was filled with sympathy for Su Yu's hard work. He was willing to wait and share with her this delicious feast that came from the heart.

Then, Su Yu carefully selected several tomatoes with bright colors like fire, and carefully put them into boiling water. He turned them over gently, and when the skin cracked subtly, he quickly took them out and placed them in cold water. The peeling skin fell off easily, revealing the fresh flesh.

She skillfully cut the tomatoes into small and exquisite dices, lightly sprinkled a layer of fine white sugar on them, as if they were covered with first snow, and set them aside, waiting for the magic of time to transform them into a delicious mixture of sweet and sour, making them the best companion to greasy dishes on the table.

However, such considerations seemed unnecessary to Meng Yuanyou and Xie Qifen. They regarded this rare and rich oil as a delicacy and were very happy about it. The word "greasy" was no longer in their taste dictionary.

As Su Yu slowly sank the last batch of noodles into the pot, the boiling water was instantly wrapped in tenderness. Everyone's eyes became eager, and the anticipation filled the entire space like the steam in the pot.

Su Yu was a little surprised when he noticed that everyone's eyes were focused on him. He said with a hint of confusion, "Huh? Why don't you guys start eating?"

Jiang Ziling's gentle voice sounded at the right time, like a spring drizzle, quietly moistening my heart. He smiled and said, "Of course I have to wait for you to come together."
