Transmigrating to become Hua Qiangu

Chapter 52 A Heartwarming Gathering

Hua Qiangu walked happily toward Bai Zihua's residence. Along the way, her mind was filled with the satisfied expressions of everyone enjoying the food. The corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up, and her steps became lighter and lighter, like a happy little bird.

Upon arriving in the kitchen, Hua Qiangu immediately began preparing. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at the fresh ingredients. "Wow, these vegetables are so tender!" she exclaimed, picking up a few greens. Their vibrant green seemed painted with nature's finest brushstrokes, so fresh and juicy they looked almost bursting with moisture. Then she spotted the lively silver carp and excitedly exclaimed, "Hey! You little rascal, you're going to be the dish today!" With that, she skillfully used her spiritual power to envelop the fish and easily scooped it up. Beside her lay a piece of pork, its red and white marbling as beautiful as fine jade, a sight that made one's mouth water.

Hua Qiangu is about to show off her culinary skills! She skillfully washes the ingredients with clean water, muttering to herself, "These vegetables are so fresh, I'm sure I can make an absolutely delicious dish!" She lights the fire, pours in the oil, and completes the task in one smooth motion.

In no time, the pickled fish was ready! The aroma seemed to come alive, quickly filling the air and assaulting everyone's sense of smell. "Wow! This pickled fish is simply divine!" Hua Qiangu's eyes lit up as she looked at the fish in the pot. The red chilies were like passionate flames, the white fish meat was as tender as a baby's skin, and the sour pickled cabbage perfectly balanced the greasiness. The combination was simply perfect, and just looking at it made one's mouth water.

Next came scrambled eggs with tomatoes, the red and yellow colors dancing in the pan like the sun and sunset playing on the plate. "Look at these colors, how beautiful! It's like bringing the beauty of the sky to the dining table!" Hua Qiangu said with a smile, her face beaming with pride.

The Dongpo pork was simmering in the pot, its rich aroma like an invisible hand, tightly gripping everyone's hearts. "Hmph, this Dongpo pork is my specialty, I'm sure you'll all be so captivated by its fragrance today!" Hua Qiangu confidently patted her chest, looking incredibly adorable.

The greens were quickly stir-fried in the pan and were ready in just a few seconds, their vibrant green color resembling the freshest new shoots of spring. "Eating more greens is good for your health; this is healthy and delicious!" Hua Qiangu said as she plated the greens.

The stewed chicken simmered slowly over the fire, its aroma growing richer and richer, as if telling the story of its deliciousness. "I've put a lot of thought into this stewed chicken! You'll all be won over by it!" Hua Qiangu hummed a little tune happily.

There's also cucumber salad, refreshing and delicious like a cool breeze on a summer day. "After eating all that rich and meaty food, you can't miss this refreshing dish; it's the perfect complement!"

Finally, Hua Qiangu made a flower soup with fresh flowers. The fragrance of the flowers blended perfectly with the aroma of the soup, like a dreamlike encounter. "This soup will definitely surprise everyone!"

With everything ready, Hua Qiangu rushed off to call for help. "Dongfang, Tangbao, Luo Shiyi, Your Majesty, come quick! There's something delicious to eat!" Her voice, like a clear bell, echoed in the air.

When everyone arrived at the table, they were all astonished by the delicious-looking and fragrant dishes.

"Wow! Xiao Gu, your cooking skills can even surpass those of the celestial chefs!" Dongfang Yuqing exclaimed in amazement, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

Tangbao skipped and jumped around like a cute little elf: "Mommy, these dishes look so delicious! I can't wait!"

Luo Shiyi also praised with a smile: "Xiao Gu, I never expected you to have this skill. This dish looks extraordinary!"

Although Bai Zihua didn't speak, the hint of surprise and admiration in his eyes betrayed his true feelings. Actually, he had long known that Hua Qiangu was a first-rate cook and had tasted her dishes before, so he had been looking forward to today for a long time.

Everyone sat down and began to enjoy their meal.

Upon taking the first bite of the pickled fish, Dongfang Yuqing's eyes lit up instantly, like the brightest star in the night sky: "My God! This taste is simply too delicious! This fish is as if it swam in a fairy spring, every single texture is infused with freshness!"

With her mouth full of fish, Tangbao mumbled incoherently, "Mommy, this fish is so delicious! I want to eat so much, I can never get enough!"

Luo Shiyi picked up a piece of Dongpo pork, and as soon as it entered his mouth, he couldn't help but exclaim, "This Dongpo pork melts in your mouth! It's like a cloud spreading out in your mouth, truly an exquisite delicacy!"

Bai Zihua took a sip of the flower soup, nodded slightly, and a rare smile appeared on his face: "This soup has a floral fragrance, but it's not cloying. It's wonderful! It's like putting spring into a bowl."

Hua Qiangu smiled happily, her smile brighter than the sun: "Haha, I'm so glad everyone likes it! Eat up, there's still plenty left! Don't be shy!"

Everyone was enjoying their meal when suddenly, Dongfang Yuqing and Bai Zihua, like two children, started fighting over the food at the table.

"Hmph, I haven't had enough of this Dongpo pork yet, don't you dare take it!" Dongfang Yuqing stared intently at the Dongpo pork on the plate, not even blinking.

Bai Zihua retorted, "I also like this dish; you can't have it all to yourself." As he spoke, he ate his chopsticks even faster.

Neither of them would give in, like two mischievous children fighting over a treasure, making everyone else burst into laughter.

Luo Shiyi laughed and said, "You two, stop fighting! Xiao Gu made a lot more!"

Tang Bao chimed in from the side, "Yes, Daddy, Your Majesty, stop fighting! We want to eat together!"

As he ate, Dongfang Yuqing suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? I feel my spiritual energy circulating! It seems to be flowing more smoothly! It's like opening a new door to cultivation!"

Tang Bao chimed in, "Yes! Yes! I felt it too! Mommy, your dish is amazing! It can even improve your cultivation level!"

Luo Shiyi nodded in agreement, "That's right, I feel like my cultivation level is improving! This is simply amazing food!"

Bai Zihua took another bite of the dish and slowly said, "This dish seems to contain a special power that is beneficial to cultivation. Xiao Gu, how did you do that?"

Hua Qiangu scratched her head, looking bewildered: "I don't know either. Maybe it's because the ingredients were good, plus my unique cooking method."

Everyone continued to enjoy the delicious food, feeling the wondrous changes of spiritual energy within their bodies, laughter echoing throughout the room. This meal not only satisfied everyone's taste buds but also deepened the bonds between them, like a thousand-year-old vintage wine, becoming more fragrant with each sip.
