After hearing what Su Chi said, everyone looked at Su He. This fish soup really didn't have any fishy smell at all. On the contrary, it was very sweet.

"Yes, Ah He, how did you cook it? It's really delicious."

Old Mrs. Su was also surprised. If she hadn't handled the fish herself, she would have suspected whether these were the ones that Su Chi caught in the creek.

The Su family had eaten this fish before, but they had never had it before. The boys in the family also caught fish in the river and brought it back, hoping to improve the family's food.

It just had a fishy smell and was hard to swallow, so I gave up.

If not for this, there would be no fish left in the river. They would have been caught and eaten by the villagers long ago. How could they still be left today?

"Are these really the fish we caught today?"

Even Su Zhiyan, who was usually calm, couldn't help but ask, "Why didn't the fish I ate before taste like this?"

"Yes, this fish soup is really delicious. How did Ah He make it?"

Aunt Luo, who was sitting opposite Su He, spoke up. It was also the first time for her to drink such delicious fish soup.

Su He's eyebrows curved, and he looked around before he smiled and said:

"This river fish doesn't have any fishy smell if you cook it right. If you like it, I'll catch a few more tomorrow."

As soon as the voice fell, Su Chi, who was sitting next to Su He, was seen holding fish soup in one hand and holding the other hand high, mumbling incoherently: "I, sister, I will go catch it tomorrow, you don't go into the water."

Normally no one catches the fish in this river. I didn’t expect that they can be cooked so deliciously. I will catch a few more tomorrow to feed my family.

Su Chi is a young boy who is full of energy. He knows best where there are rivers and fish near Yunli Village.

"Okay, but don't scratch your clothes."

Old Man Su responded while eating. Su Chi was small, and he couldn't do much following the adults in the fields, and the work in the fields was almost done.

Seeing the Su family members all eating with their heads down, I guess they also like to eat this fish. Besides, the children in the village are hardy and many of them play with cats and dogs on weekdays. If the children want to eat fish, just catch it.

"Grandpa, I want to go out for a walk tomorrow, too."

Su He looked at Old Man Su, waiting for his response with anticipation.

The original body was in poor health, and the Su family was particularly concerned about her. Today, when she went to the fields with her grandma to deliver meals, the Su family was very worried, and Su He was afraid that they would object.

She was anxious to see if there was anything to eat nearby. The Su family was in the current situation and might run out of food if things continued like this. She had to think of a solution, and going to the nearby area to see the situation was the most feasible option.

And she now feels that she still has enough physical strength, so it should be no problem for her to walk around nearby.

"I feel much better now, and it would be good to move more. I feel exhausted lying in the house all day."

Old Man Su listened to Su He's words and looked at Su He's face. After going out for a walk today, she did look a little different. Maybe going out for a walk more often would really help her granddaughter's physical recovery.

Seeing that his elder sister winked at him fiercely, Su Chi quickly said, "Grandpa, I will take care of my elder sister tomorrow, don't worry."

"This is what the sister called water celery, and it's really delicious. Adding this red fruit makes the taste really special, and it doesn't burn your mouth at all."

After hearing Su Chi's words, everyone's attention immediately turned to the bowl of water celery.

The Su family had just eaten it and thought the taste was very special. It was a wild vegetable they had never eaten before. They didn't expect that the taste of this wild vegetable would be so different after being cooked by Su He.

But I didn’t expect that red fruits were put in it. Red fruits are the things Su He called chili peppers.

They had eaten it before when they had just picked it, but it was very burning. Not only did it not fill them up, it also burned their mouths and caused stomachaches.

But I didn’t expect that red fruits were put in this dish, but the taste is different from what I ate before.

"This red fruit is called chili pepper. It can't be eaten as a vegetable, but it can be used as an ingredient. I was afraid you wouldn't be used to it, so I put less to adjust the flavor."

Su He explained, but seeing that the Su family was eating well and no one felt that the food was burning their mouths, she only put a little bit of chili pepper and fried it in hot oil, which brought out the aroma of the chili pepper. When it was fried with water celery, the taste was really amazing.

"When did Ah He become so skilled in cooking? These wild vegetables taste better than the meat."

Luo asked unintentionally. It was no wonder that she was curious. Su He had been ill for many years and rarely came out of the house.

After hearing what Luo said, everyone looked towards Su He curiously. Su He's mother, Xie, was also stunned. She just thought that the food her daughter cooked was indeed delicious and didn't think about it in this way.

She knew her daughter better than anyone else. How did she suddenly become such a good cook? Moreover, they didn't even know that water celery and the wild mint were edible. How did Ah He know about them?

"Didn't I say that God saw that our Su family was suffering so much, and that Ah He has recovered now thanks to the gods? Besides, aren't the dishes already placed here? What are you thinking about?"

Old Mrs. Su used the same rhetoric as before. Anyway, the person in front of her was her granddaughter, absolutely the real thing.

Everyone in the Su family was stunned for a moment, but they quickly came to their senses and responded one after another.

"Yes... yes, mom is right, I just talk too fast."

"With the blessing of the gods, our Ah He will be healthy and live a long life."

"What is this... water celery? I want to eat it tomorrow."

Su Mu, who usually spoke little, couldn't help but raise his hand and make a request.

Su He chuckled softly.

"Okay, this water celery is fresh and tender now. I'll pick some more tomorrow."

"Well, eat quickly, and then take a rest. We still have another day of work in the fields tomorrow."

Old Man Su gave instructions to everyone.

After dinner, everyone in the Su family cleared the table together. In the kitchen, Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Luo washed the dishes. Old Mrs. Su leaned over and blew out the candles in the main room. The Su family soon fell into darkness.

The stars are twinkling and the night breeze is cool.

The spring night was still a little chilly. Su He lay on the bed. The feeling of fullness in her stomach made her feel satisfied. Thinking that she could go for a walk nearby tomorrow, she couldn't help but feel a little bit of anticipation.

I hope to find some delicious food so that the Su family can improve their food.

As he was thinking, he realized that the night was a little chilly. Su He pulled at the quilt on his body. Old Mrs. Su had taken it out to bask in the sun during the day, so it was quite warm to cover herself with it.

There were wild flowers in the room that Su Chi and Su Zhiyan had picked for her during the day. There was also a faint fragrance in the air, which made Su He slowly relax and she fell asleep in a short while.

The next day, Su He was awakened by the sound of low voices in the yard.

She stared at the roof in a daze, and it took her a while to come back to her senses and confirm that she was still in Yunli Village, at the old Su's house.
